Hardwood Floors 101
Guys. I'm dying. At least I feel like I'm dying. Can someone come over and scoop out my throat. I don't think I need it anymore. It's all full of gunk and won't let me talk. Stupid throat. Oh. And while you are at it. Take my right eye too. Apparently I have viral pinkeye. I had no clue there was such a thing, but according to my doctor… there is. And all I can do with this bloodshot zombie-lookin eye is wait it out. Foowie. But seriously, one of the benefits of being sick is that I am forced to sit down and rest. And what's a better way to spend my day resting than to work on blog stuff, watch some reruns of Fresh Prince, and drink giant cups of coffee.
About 10 freakin' years ago I started telling you guys about how we were demoing for our new hardwood floors. Ok. Maybe not 10 years. But sometimes, when you are sick, 3 weeks feels like 10 years. Plus, I had every intention to post again about 3 days later, but then life happened. Anywho. I've spent about 6 months researching all things hardwood floors so we could make the best decision. And I've learned a lot. Like, A LOT. So I figured I would teach a class today on all that I learned. Call it Hardwood Floors 101. And I'm Professor Talitha.

From Google Ventures: How To Hire The Best Designer For Your Team
The key to recruiting for a startup is to craft a realistic job description. And stop looking for unicorns—they don't exist, writes Google Ventures' Braden Kowitz.
Finding the perfect designer to join your team is tough—there's no way around it. I've struggled for months searching for the right designer. And if you're an engineer or MBA without a background in design, hiring a designer can be daunting, frustrating, or even downright scary.
We can talk about how to review portfolios, how to interview candidates, and how to persuade a designer that your team is worth joining. But before all that, there's a fundamental question you need to answer: What kind of designer are you looking for?
The field of UX design is still young. And because it has grown so fast, practitioners have largely immigrated from neighboring fields. A given designer's background might be rooted in ethnography, journalism, art, cognitive psychology, engineering, or other disciplines. You might find one designer who can illustrate with ease, while another can barely manage a stick figure, but both are competent UX designers. The same dramatic differences can be found in any number of other skill areas. The group of people who call themselves "designers" is remarkably diverse.
That's why I don't find the term "designer" to be useful in describing the skills a candidate should have. When people ask, "I need to hire a designer, do you know any?" I fire back, "What kind of designer?" Because knowing what kind of designer requires breaking down the role into more granular skills that are easier to describe in a job listing and easier to evaluate during an interview.
What skills do you need?
The first step to hiring a designer is to list out all the skills necessary to build your product. Here's my short list of the most critical product skills, and the questions that those skills help answer.
• Research: What do customers want? Can they figure out how to use our product?
• Product design: What are we building? What are we not building? What's in this release?
• Copywriting: How do we describe our product to customers in a way they understand?
• Interaction design: How does the product behave? How is it organized?
• Visual design: How does the product look and feel?
• UI development:How do we build quality interfaces quickly and flexibly?
There are many other skills you might need: facilitation, content strategy, storytelling, game design, editing, iteration management, etc. You can find a longer list in Jared Spool's excellent article on assessing your team's UX skills.
If you're hiring a designer, start with a skill list. From there, it'll be easier to see which of those are already covered on your team. And it'll be possible to prioritize skills based on the product you're building. Some of these skills might be more or less important. For example, if you're building an internal tool for IT departments, you probably need product design more than visual design. With this narrowed-down list, we now know what type of designer we're looking to hire.
Have you ever read a designer job listing that sounds like this?
Seed-stage startup looking for rockstar junior designer to sketch wireframes and design beautiful mockups. You'll be responsible for crafting our logo and brand and writing UI copy. Must know how to run usability studies, prototype and write production-ready HTMLand CSS.
When I read a post like this I think, "Great! There's a team that understands all the skills they'll need!" But I also think, "They're looking for a unicorn—a magical designer who can solve all their problems." It's too bad unicorns don't exist.
There's nothing wrong with being aspirational, but job listings like this don't work for a few reasons:
• I have never met a designer who is an expert in all those skill areas. Listing a bevy of skills can discourage people from applying, even though they are good fit for your team.
• Designers that respond to that job listing will differ greatly in their skill coverage. In order to decide between them, you'll still need to prioritize what skills you need. It's better to do that first, rather than after the interview.
• Even if you find a unicorn designer with all those skills, actually doing all those things at your company is a huge amount of work. One full-time person probably isn't going to cut it.
• The best designers, the ones who are experienced, will read a job listing like this and be able to tell that the author is asking too much from a single person. It's a signal that the author is not familiar with user-centered design, and it can scare away good designers.
When I prepare to hire a design team, I decide which few skills are critical and should be covered in-house. The rest of the skills can either be covered by part-time help or can be done without. There are difficult trade-offs to be made. Here are some of the toughest:
Should we hire a designer who can code?
I believe it's important for any designer to understand their medium, and that means that software designers should understand the basics of software development. (I have an engineering background, and it has served me well.)
But usually I think it's a bad idea to ask your designer to write production code. First, since many designers can't code, you're limiting the pool of candidates. Second, startup teams are typically engineering heavy. The rest of the team is often better at front-end development than any designer. In terms of skill coverage, when you hire a designer who can code, you're doubling down on engineering when you could be diversifying and getting other skills on your team. But most important, design is a full-time job. If you're asking your designer to write code, you're asking them to spend less time designing, studying users, prototyping, and doing all of the other activities that lead to great products.
For very small teams (three engineers or less), I think it can work to have someone both designing and writing code. But it's often better to have a full-time designer paired with a front-end developer who cares about design. This way each person focuses on their core strength, and they share a common language in design that'll make working together easier. Don't find a designer who can code—find an engineer who loves design.
Do we really need a user researcher?
A good user researcher can be your eyes and ears. She can help you understand what your customers really want, and why they might not need your product. She can measure whether your customers even understand how to use the software you've shipped. All of this data is essential in finding product-market fit.
And on larger products, this data gives teams the confidence they need to make changes.
A huge part of user-centered design and lean startup methodology is getting out from behind your desk, out of the office, and talking to your customers. Is there someone on your team who does this naturally, who loves talking to customers?
Everyone has their center of gravity. If I had a free hour, I'd spend it sketching. Engineers will spend their free hour coding. And every good team should have someone whose center of gravity is outside the office. This is the person who'll chime in when you're having an argument about features and say, "I'll go out, ask some customers, and we'll know by this evening."
There are many roles that have their center of gravity outside the office: user research, sales, community management, business development, etc. And all of these people can help to gather data about customer needs in different ways. For the products I've worked on, user research has been an indispensable part of the product design process. And for anyone building consumer-facing products, I highly recommend working with a user researcher from the very beginning.
What's more important: interaction design or visual design?
Luckily, it's common to find UX designers who are good at both visual design (how it looks) and interaction design (how it works). Both skill sets are required to build great products, and both are core to how customers understand and perceive the product.
Any design candidate you interview will be better at one than the other. (I'm much better at interaction design than visual design.) So if you only have enough space on your team to hire one designer, you'll have to decide which skill set is more important for the product you're building.
Focus on visual design if your product:
• Must be more delightful than competitors (e.g., games).
• Needs to appear credible, well built, and high quality (e.g., finance).
• Creates a space people aspire to be a part of (e.g., communities).
Focus on interaction design if your product:
• Has many features but needs to feel simple.
• Supports complex tasks and flows and is used every day.
• Is mobile-based (and can lean on a mobile platform's visual style).
Once you make some tough choices and pick the granular skills you need on your team, you'll be able to write a much better job listing. And you'll be better prepared to evaluate design candidates who interview at your startup.

It's fair to not expect designers to code, but it's important for them to know how. They save time by not designing something costly to engineer or isn't possible to do. With code experience they're more likely to think of dynamic scenarios that the mocks must address, saving resources. When a missing scenario is found during development, the teams have to find a band-aid solution or re-factor their work to accommodate the new requirement. Designers with code experience have greater appreciation for clean codebases & modular, re-usable patterns, which doesn't hit home until you've had to create a bunch of one-off UI elements for no good reason.
I have problems all the time with our design team because they can't code - no consistency, non-flexible designs, fancy design/animations for the sake of it & at the expense of code maintainability & performance. Innovation should be smart, not expensive. I'd never hire designers who can't code. Coding designers are out there. Yes, they are.
agree withi this!!
Very nice article: I always thinking why they do not understand with it.
Specially in this article with this paragraph " The best designers, the
ones who are experienced, will read a job listing like this and be able
to tell that the author is asking too much from a single person. It's a
signal that the author is not familiar with user-centered design, and it
can scare away good designers." clear a every thing that how designer
thinks when they saw the advertisements.
This is my first spot too on this article.
There are unicorns. Google has at least one in google ventures. Actually google bought a company just to get him and other guy that is also a unicorn, but not in design. But if your startup isn't really interesting, don't even bother trying to get them, unless you get them really young.
Yes, startups should make a list of things they need, but that works for every other area.
Will name a few unicorns just so you can know: Wilson miner, Mike Matas, David Burka, Alex penny, Peter Vidani and I'm sure there are even more out there.
Unicorns are likely to be generalists and usually they are just waiting/looking for an opportunity so they can put there hands in something really interesting.
There are unicorns in every field, if there wasn't, there would be no google, no square, no spaceX.
I'm done.
Braden, once again an excellent article.
As a freelance designer I don't think the mentioned job listing is so "unicorn". If you are in the industry for 5-10 years I don't think it's too much to ask for to know more than a few skills. For a UX designer this might mean both coding and interaction design; for a more visual designer this might mean a foray in 3D, motion, illustration, photography or some other creative endeavour.
What's faulty of these companies, as you point out, is to ask a junior profile to know everything. The point you make that when an experienced designer looks at a job listing that asks for too much, they'll think the company doesn't know their biz is absolutely right.
I'm a UX designer with 7+ years of experience. I can do visual UI design, interaction design, interactive prototyping with HTML/CSS/JS (for prototyping and basic interactions, no voodoo like writing libraries like d3js), write production ready code that is performant, have some photography chops, product knowledge, manage my own business. I don't feel like a unicorn at all. I'm just a guy who keeps on learning.
Kind of like in an RPG where you keep levelling up: my AngularJS is only 1/10. Next year it might be 2/10. In 5 years because of all the exposure to Javascript in prototyping my JS might actually be at the level of someone coming out of college. But I'll still have the interaction design skills I had. Does that make the future me a unicorn? I think it just makes them versed in multiple skills, a natural thing in a career that spans 45+ years.
Unicorn is exist, but rare. whether you need it of not, it depends. And I beleive unicorn and hybrid designer and developer. Their thinking is much better then one expert in certain field. Since they will not filter out the possibility and functionality. They much worth to hire, usually not double the pay...
Designers shouldn't write production 'code' (when you've defined 'code' as HTML & CSS)?
Is this 2002?
You pretty much lost me there, sorry. I'd be nervous about hiring a designer who can't write production HTML & CSS; and prefer production MV* JS & Ruby skills. Gotta move with the times - we're building products, not posters of products!
"The Designer" means S/He creates pieces for eyes. That's not mean they must do assembling pieces with codes and debug it until the hell it looks stable for usage of product. You want that, you sacrifice %50 of your design stability.
I absolutely agree with the original post on this. This is two totally different brain functions. It's critical to have an understanding of code syntax, but you are limiting yourself a heck of a lot by cutting off any designers that don't write production ready code. I'd say "Is this 2002" to your thoughts on the whole flip side. Theres tons of outsource shops that will build high quality html/css for you for cheap, so from a cost standpoint it doesn't make any sense to pay a high paid designer to do code - and from a logistics standpoint, they should be freed up in time to design rather than be bogged down by an entirely different skillset. Even if/when a designer has all of the skills to write production ready code, I would never ever have them do much if any of the actual code.
I always see job posts that hire designers who can code but never programmers who can design. Maybe you could help explain why.
Lost me at the same spot. We only ever hire designers who can write production quality HTML & CSS, and who don't mind getting their hands dirty with a bit of JS and templating stuff thrown in.
This is our medium, this is our platform. Having this separation of designer responsibilites in my experience (I've hired ~20 designers in the last couple of years) leads to idealistic design decisions which in turn lead to unimplementable or poorly considered solutions and eventually below-par products.
By this logic, no one should have ever hired a print designer who couldn't also go over to the printer and run the presses, too.
That is not a one-to-one comparison. The web is a dynamic medium, and good design addresses its fluidity. In my experience with designers who can't code, they often create mocks that don't account for typical scenarios that should be obvious after working at our company for years. We engineers often have to ask them, "What happens to the layout when this string is translated?" "How should this email look on a small phone?" "This layout won't translate well on a tablet - can you please advise?" They only design for their own Thunderbolt screens and what requires the least amount of thinking on their part. That said, they should go back to designing brochures.
An interesting footnote to this piece is that the art/design used was sourced via shutterstock.
Could you imagine a start up trying to create this type of art from scratch? The process would likely cause a few fistfights if not even sink some companies.
More evidence that you don't necessarily need a designer that can do
everything, but rather someone that can translate and/or
elevate your brand vision through various channels/resources, etc.
I agree with Chris Raymond's comment. I think this article is really great.
I agree with this post 98%. The 2% is where I say, "I believe in unicorns". I've seen and met some who excel at being end to end designers. And we've all read similar job descriptions to the example given. The kicker is always the Jr. or even Md-level caveat, which translates to we want someone who can deliver the world but are willing to pay you next to nothing. Unicorns are flying high and don't have 2 minutes to read your job post.
Amazing input! I agree completely with the fact that it is often complicated to find designers that fit your needs and that will understand exactly your vision for your projects. It is very important to have great understanding and interpretation from both sides so that great things can be achieved. Very insightful!
Designers are almost none of the things described above. All that stuff might work well in the Googleplex or at Facebook factory or Microsoft monarchy but it is not about design or designers.....
Designers are people who understand other people. Its that simple. Perhaps the best designers are children because they understand what others kids will like even before they know it, see it, or get to play with it. Not all kids are creative geniuses but all kids know about other kids. Some adults retain that ability, perception, focus, clarity, and gift. Most do not.
Designers know that people love to hang with those who share their values, mores, fashion sense, language, etc. So a good designer will come up with something that is relevant to the mob and their GroupThink but then make it remarkable. Making it remarkable is what designers are really really good at doing. They make something that is clunky and chunky into something that is funky.
Cheers, Richard.
Design from pre-internet ages did not vanish into the fog of the past. Design expertise that takes years to refine, is alive and well and looking for a job. We want to help, to share and collaborate, and make amazing things with our more engineering-oriented partners. We want designers to be shocked at the beauty of a design in coded space. The roads traveled by UI, UX, and visual design also have wiggy edges washing into each other. I thought Apple had adequately demonstrated that excellence in how a product looks, works, and is experienced, is ultimately one thing, and it's what makes great design. All together now! Great article.

Vast potential for Ocean Thermal Energy in the Caribbean
CAF – The Development Bank of Latin America – has identified the potential use of deep seawater air conditioning (SWAC) systems in the Caribbean. Hotels and resorts are large consumers of electrical energy in Caribbean islands, and conventional air conditioning (A/C) systems account for around 40% of the total energy consumption in such buildings. SWAC uses deep cold seawater to replace the chillers used in conventional A/C systems, greatly reducing the electrical consumption and costs.… Continue reading

BEC and OTE Corp. signs MoU for two OTEC plants in the Bahamas
Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation and Bahamas Electricity Corporation has according to Green Technology World, signed a Memorandum of Understanding to develop two OTEC plants in the Bahamas. The press release claims these will be the
worlds first two commercially operational plants.
Bahamas would want OTEC
The Tribune reports on the National Energy Policy Committee's second report, which talk about OTEC.
"Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) processes also represent an exploitable renewable resource," the Committee's report said. "As the Bahama Banks are characterised by steep drop-offs, most of the major islands have a location where OTEC technology would be feasible. However, this technology is at the experimental stage."

Re: Give me my kills!trialstardragon Jan 23, 2012 7:58 PM (in response to MoNsTeR_zAcH)
Demand all you want but you did not earn the kill. The kill is not earned until they actually die, not just because you put them into final stand.
3arc broke in in BO because of all the whiners in FFA and how it was affecting them. And that is the only game mode that should have had that fix in it, none other.
Re: Give me my kills!technical Jan 23, 2012 8:10 PM (in response to trialstardragon)
There was no temporary invulnerability in Black Ops. However, it's present in Modern Warfare 3. You have very little chances to prevail. And much worse than Black Ops, it's Final Stand, which means you can use your primary weapon.

Death streaks are disgusting to begin with so arguing about things within them is pointless to me.
Re: Give me my kills!traxxas58 Jan 24, 2012 10:12 AM (in response to coolwhhhip)
Just remove the ******* deathstreaks from the game. Why the hell would you want to reward **** people with a free kill like Dead Man's Hand does? What ******* moron thought of that?!

I can't give you more than what I've got
I can't expect to give what I have not
I-I-I can only give ya lovin' 'till the sun goes down
And, until the leaves of summer turn to shades of brown
I try and I try
But baby, you know that I
Can only give you evra'thing
I can't argue with you to a-understand
'Cause afterall, I am just a man
A you-ooo-ooo are on my mind
When stars appear and shadows fall
And when ev'ra little flower close
And no birds call
I try and I try
But baby, you know that I
Can only give you evra'thing
I'll do anything you want me to do
'Cause I don't want to know there's life without you
Ooh, ooh, ooh,
Don't ever go and leave me in this world alone
I-I-I'd be like a little child if I was on my own
I try and I try
But baby you know that I
Can only give you evra'thing
Evra'thing, baby
A little bit of this, a little bit of that
And evra'thing
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Whoa, ooh, ooh
Whoa, ooh, ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I was working on a story during the Houston-Cincinnati game, but every time I looked up, Bengals QB Andy Dalton was eating dirt. The Ravens shouldn't sleep on the Texans.

Watering Can Cake
- Uploaded By springlakecake
- 2008-03-24 13:53:35
and when I saw GRAMMASUE's cake I was blown away! Thanks to
cloudsmom for tips on how to make the spout. Also big thanks to aine2
for her tutorial on the gumpaste roses. These are my first! I think I need
a little more practice and better cutters, but I was pretty happy with
how they turned out. The butterflies are chocolate.
pelussa Says... 7 years ago
Merissa, Your cake is PERFECT. How did you make the butterflies??
CakesByLJ Says... 7 years ago

wendalynn11 Says... 7 years ago
This is gorgeous...how did you get the spout to stay up?
springlakecake Says... 7 years ago
Thanks! Each wing is a chocolate transfer then I pipe a little chocolate and prop the wings up in it and let it harden.
twinsmake5 Says... 7 years ago
It's beautiful! I'd like to know how to do the butterflies too please.
springlakecake Says... 7 years ago
The spout is gumpaste wrapped around a dowel. I put a cake board between layers of cake and drove the dowel through the cake board into the base at an angle. It was quite sturdy.
springlakecake Says... 7 years ago
Oh and I forgot to mention that you cant really see in the picture but I used some piping gel on it to look like water around the base and dripping down the sides of the cake and spout. It looked pretty neat!

melysa Says... 7 years ago
the butterflies and wood flooring are my favorite of the finishing touches. did you use vanilla to paint the wood or brown color? its a very pretty shade which compliments the cake colors well rather than distracting from it. beautiful cake!
springlakecake Says... 7 years ago
Thanks, Melysa. I used vodka to paint it. However, the cake turned out a little more "shabby chic" looking that I planned. So I sort of wish I had left it white.

FireEye Highlights Importance of Multi-flow Analysis in Detecting Advanced Malware With Latest Report
Four New Techniques Uncovered for Malware to Evade Traditional, File-Based Sandboxing Technologies
Milpitas, CA - Apr 8, 2014 – FireEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: FEYE), the leader in stopping today's advanced cyber attacks, today announced the release of "Hot Knives Through Butter: Evading File-based Sandboxes." Drawing from data uncovered in observing thousands of advanced attacks that avoided detection by signature-based security solutions and file-based sandboxing solutions, "Hot Knives" provides a look at how important contextual analysis within a hardened hypervisor has become in fighting advanced attacks.
"Stealth and evasion represent the basic tools of the trade for advanced attackers, and security professionals need to stay on top of the latest techniques to avoid becoming the next headline," said Jon Oltsik, senior principal analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. "Today, sandboxes are becoming a standard in security — but not all sandboxes are built alike. Knowing how sandboxes work and the evasion techniques deployed against them can help avoid a serious breach."
Originally released in August 2013, "Hot Knives" detailed 11 evasion techniques used by advanced persistent threats (APTs) and advanced malware to bypass configuration-specific, environment-specific, VMware-specific, and human interaction-based sandbox testing techniques. The four new techniques detailed in this latest version of the report include:
- Use of malicious downloaders that take advantage of the fact that most file-based sandboxes are not configured with an internet connection, meaning their failed HTTP requests are detected, but not the malicious sites they point to.
- Execution name of the analyzed file, whereby attackers have their code check for the predefined name sandboxes assign to files during execution and signal their malware to remain dormant to avoid detection.
- Volume information detection whereby malware identifies the serial numbers of hard drives that are copied from one sandbox to the other and aborts the operation if the serial numbers match known sandboxes.
- Execution after rebooting, whereby malware remains dormant until after a reboot to take advantage of the fact that sandboxes do not normally reboot.
"Today's attackers have built techniques to bypass the use of virtualization and sandboxing in the enterprise for far longer than traditional security solutions have been designed to think about them," said Abhishek Singh, senior staff research scientist engineer, FireEye. "Approaching security from the standpoint of monitoring activities without context around them is akin to navigating without a compass. With these latest techniques, it is more important than ever to look beyond the surface of what file-based sandboxing technologies can do."

Sraffa and the Reconstruction of Economic Theory: Volume Three
Sraffa's Legacy: Interpretations and Historical Perspectives
Edited by Enrico Sergio Levrero, Antonella Palumbo, Antonella Stirati
|Publication Date
|December 2013
|Hardcover Ebook (PDF) Ebook (EPUB)
|Palgrave Macmillan
Written on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the publication of Piero Sraffa's Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities, the papers selected and contained in Sraffa and the Reconstruction of Economic Theory account for the work completed around the two central aspects of his contribution to economic analysis, namely the criticism of the neoclassical (or marginalist) theory of value and distribution, and the reconstruction of economic theory along the lines of the classical approach. Divided into three volumes, Sraffa and the Reconstruction of Economic Theory debates the most fruitful routes for advancements in this field and their implications for applied and policy analysis.
This third volume collects papers concerning the evolution of Sraffa's ideas and the interpretation of his contribution in relation to other streams in economics, methodology and the history of economic thought.

Hey guys, just came to say hi and show off my new project a little . My buddy got a road bike last fall and loved it so I decided I should get one too. Most on Craigslist seem to be $100 minimum and I have kind of a hard time paying that much for a bike that is going to need a bunch of money and TLC anyway. Then this guy came along:
It had been sitting out in front of my dorm since I moved in last fall, never once moved even as it disappeared into the snow bank. As I began seriously looking for a bike around a month ago a buddy suggeseted I just grab that and rebuild it. I am a car guy and I love tinkering and fixing things so I thought it would suit me well. As you can see, it was in pretty tough shape... super rusty chain and cog, bent front fork, no front wheel, bent handlebar, and everything else was starting to rust or tarnish.
I decided I would do this build as cheaply as possible. My buddy's sweet old Peugeot was about $50 including what he paid for it from a thrift shop to get it running, beating him was my unofficial goal. So I stripped it down and sanded it for paint.
I decided on flat black because A) a couple coats of black primer is cheaper than priming, painting, and clearing for a nice glossy finish and B) I hope that flat black makes it look less appealing to theives. I guess I like the look of flat black too . So last Saturday I took it to this awesome nonprofit volunteer run used parts bike store/workshop to get 'er together. I got a new fork, chain, and front wheel/tire there, hit it with a couple coats of Rustoleum black primer, and started assembly. I only had an hour to straighten the rear wheel (didnt go well) and assemble it, so I only got the wheels, front brake, fork, and handlebar on. I was working on the chain when they closed, since I didnt get the derailleurs on I was just rigging it up as a ghetto single speed. They let me stay a few minutes to get the chain on and I rode it home after that. Here she is when I got home:
Monday was an amazing day here in Minneapolis so my buddy and I just sat out in the sun... we had every intention of doing some homework, but that wasnt going to happen so he did some carving while I polished some parts of my bike. I got the front wheel and front brake assembly and lever deal all shined up. I also got a new handlebar from his roommate. Last night I polished up and mounted the rear brake and lever, but since the back wheel is so bent its not adjusted to actually do anything. I still have to lengthen the chain, mount up the derailleurs, rebuild the hub (?) on the back wheel, and do something about the bottom bracket, but it works fine enough for now!
So here's my list of money spent:
Bike - free
Fork, from a mid-late 70's Schwinn (pretty sure anyway) - $5
Front wheel and tire - $5
Length of chain - $5
Handlebar - free
1/2 can of spray paint - $2.50
Labor, about 15 hours - free
So I am definately pumped about how economical this thing will be... I figured just biking back and forth from my primary job this summer will save me around $150 or so, assuming gas stays at the rediculous price of ~$3.50. I'll have the thing paid for in 2 weeks! I dont have a lot to spend either, hopefully all the hub and bottom bracket will need is some grease, I'll get a new seat and pedals off my mountain bike back home, and the extra chain wont cost much money. It'll most likely be done for $20 right on the head!
This will be a pretty all purpose bike for now... going to work/friends houses/etc, exercise, leisure, and even a triathalon in August. Eventually though (maybe next winter) I plan to pick up an old Schwinn Paramount to do up nice. That one will get nice components and be used for training, races/triathalons, and leisure, but I will keep the World Sport possibly as a fixie for commuting. Oh I plan to do the Paramount just as I did the World Sport... flat black and polished except I will repaint the "Schwinn Paramount" on the down pipe in white or light grey.
So what to do you guys think? Anyone else have any low budget builds going on? Sorry about the novel, since freshmen writing I tend to get a bit long winded.
EDIT: I will post some new pictures this weekend when I get the derailleurs shined/mounted up and get it as done as it will get here in the cities.

Meatus wrote "contact," but it should be "contract."
You're right. I suck.
don't be too hard on yourself, what worries me is that the grammatical error may be evidence of the picture actually working.
Meatus, that was the best comment of the week – just claim it was a typo and enjoy your well-deserved reward.
Hello Operator? Can you put me through to Retardation? What's that? Why yes, of course I'll hold.
Doesn't he claim to only be 30?
it looks like Fred Armisen doing an impression, that's how stupid this kid looks

I just received an email from Pfaff indicating they are coming out with a new TOL sewing and embroidery machine called Creative Performance. It gave no details whatsoever. I'd heard rumors of a new Ambition model, but that's not TOL, is it?
Does anyone know anything about this? Isn't it odd that they'd come out with another TOL after just coming out with the Creative Sensation last year?
I just looked at the email again and it says TOL sewing machine with add on embroidery. Maybe that means it's not as TOL as the sensation?
Quote the text of the email, and we'll parse it to pieces.

A small picture is available at this dealer, though the link simply leads to the "Creative 2.0" page.
It's probably just a small update-- LED lighting, if the earlier machine didn't have it already, perhaps more stitches, a color touchscreen.
And, maybe, just maybe, they'll fix some of the bugs associated with theCreative 2.0
It looks dark purple, like the color in the announcement below:
When I first viewed my e-mail, there was a backlit machine that suddenly had an embroidery unit appear on it and then this:
and...that's all for now!
I got it too - and I'm so excited about it I can hardly sit still! I was almost ready to buy the Sensation, but don't really do much embroidery so I was dragging my feet.
Then I heard that there were new machines coming out at convention in April, so I decided to hold off until then before buying.
Today, I got the email - it sounds like it's going to be the Sensation without embroidery, unless of course you do the add-in. But then I don't know why they would offer a machine with the add-in when the Sensation already exists!?????
So who knows?! I'll be watching all the teasers tho - and by the way, do they really send out teasers like that for just anything they add to the line? Or could this possibly be a real TOL machine...like they said?
Haha, if it's really a pretty purple, that would be fun! If it were a viking, it would have to be called Amethyst:)
to me, it looks like a replacement for the creative 3.0.
when i took my smarter in to be re-timed, the dealer said something about a birthday machine comming out...
looking down the page more there is a pic of the pfaff birthday machine. it looks like a expression 3.0, to. makes sense as the viking birthday machine is also the middle of the line quilting machine.
there is also this line "Pfaff welcomes the first product to the new exciting family of products the c1100 pro" on the smarter website.. idk if that means more products in that line or not.
pfaff birthday machine
maybe the new machine will "replace" the qe 4.0 and set up a more bernina style product that can be sold alone or, with the embroidery. i would love to have more machines around with huge screens and big harps like the laura ashley nx2000 and the 820 that have all the computer power w/o a embroidery module.
------Quilting up a storm!
My dealer whispered something about the Performance line, which replaces the Creative 2.0 and 4.0 with optional emboridery.
The other one called the 150 is to replace the machines midline from the Ambition to the EX 4.0.
Or maybe it replaces the trouble laden EX4.0
In any case another Pfaff dealer said to me that Pfaff has must clean up their act if they are going to stay in business. That they put money in the wrong places.
So we will see, I hope they have stepped it up as it had always been a quality and great machine.

Remember Me
Phish :: 06.06.09 :: Comcast Center (Great Woods) :: Mansfield, MA
After an absolute barnburner of a show on Friday (read the review here), I knew it would be tough to live up to expectations. The show was by no means bad, but sorta felt like the band was just going through the motions. Starting with some newer material, "Stealing Time From a Faulty Plan" and "Nothing" off of 2004's Undermind, the setlist was a bit thin.
A very welcome "Golgi Apparatus" was a highlight of Set One with a packed house screaming along and fist-pumping to the line, "I saw you with a ticket stub on your hand!" Saturday was also by far the hardest ticket of the tour with many fingers in the air pre-show.
"Sparkle" was fun and lighting speed, while the debut of another Trey solo tune, "Let Me Lie," proved a little flat. Standard versions of "Makisupa Policeman" (sans any keyword at all), "Taste" and "Prince Caspian" closed out one of the weaker sets of the summer.
"Scent Of A Mule" was great to see for the typical duel between Trey and Page, but coupled with "Heavy Things" it sucked the life out of the set. If a few of the past setlists were aimed at the older vets, tonight seemed to be geared for the casual fan.
A strong "Bug" closed the show, and then during the first encore, "Contact," Gordon was waving his hands in the opposite direction of the other three and some dumb concertgoer jumped onstage in front of Fishman and ran across the stage waving his arms. It prompted Trey to joke, "Hey! Watch out for that guy. Oh, now he's gonna get thrown out and miss the next song!" A pity since the band absolutely crushed the first "Julius" since the return, and it was so fire-blazing hot I'd call it the song of the night, along with "Fluffhead."
Up next, the long haul down to Camden for the final northeast show of the summer tour's first leg...
Phish :: 06.06.09 :: Comcast Center (Great Woods) :: Mansfield, MA
Set I: Stealing Time From The Faulty Plan, Nothing, Back on the Train, Golgi Apparatus, Sparkle, Gotta Jiboo, Lawn Boy, Let Me Lie, Taste, Makisupa Policeman, Prince Caspian
Set II: Seven Below, Fluffhead, Scent of a Mule, Heavy Things, Harry Hood, Possum, Bug
Encore: Contact, Julius

I've got a bunch of bottles lying around the collection that need to go. They're very new (about 2 years, some under). They still have a pretty pronounced graininess to them. I have to be honest, I just don't enjoy them straight.
Any suggestions of what cocktails do well with a grainier, newer whiskey (recipes please!)? I normally drink my bourbon straight up, so this is sort of new territory for me.
My Inventory of young stuff which needs to go:
- Smooth Ambler Yearling
- BT White Dog
- Dry Fly Washington Wheat
- Roundstone Rye
- Belmont Farm Kopper Kettle
EDIT: Upon further review, I recognize that only one of these whiskies is actually bourbon...

Things didn't go as planned for the Chicago Bulls the last time they faced one of the league's worst teams at home. After sweeping a two-game trip in Florida, the Bulls are hoping to carry over their road success Monday night when they try for their 11th straight win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. While the Bulls (18-13) have the best road record in the Eastern Conference at 9-5, they're only 9-8 at the United Center. They've dropped two of three at home, including a 91-81 loss last Monday that ended Charlotte's 18-game losing streak. Chicago has shot a combined 34.4 percent from their field in its last two home games, but improved its offensive efficiency by shooting 45.9 percent in consecutive wins at Orlando and Miami. "We haven't been playing great basketball and this is probably our biggest win of the year against the defending champs," center Joakim Noah said after the 96-89 win over the Heat on Friday. "It feels good.'' Former Cavalier Carlos Boozer provided the team wit...

Geneticists have linked the physical appearance of humans to patches of DNA lost in the 5 million years since we shared a common ancestor with chimpanzees. One loss prevented men from growing penile barbs, which chimps possess. Another enlarged some regions of our brain.
Only 2 percent of the DNA in our genome forms protein-coding genes. The rest, once called "junk DNA," helps control and coordinate gene activity. Out of this regulatory coordination, physiological complexity emerges.
Bejerano's team started by comparing the genomes of chimpanzees and macaque monkeys, which last shared a common ancestor 20 million years ago. They identified regions that hadn't changed in chimps, then compared these to corresponding stretches of the human genome. They found more than 500 mutations known as deletions, or missing stretches of DNA, present in chimps but lost in humans.
Two deletions, one near a male hormone-signaling gene and another near a neural development gene, were especially intriguing. Tweaking those genes in mice suggested possible roles for the loss: eliminating penile spines and boosting cerebral cortex growth.
Bigger brains are an obvious advantage ("It probably helped us become the thinkers we are today," Bejerano said), but it's unclear why evolution weeded out the spines. These tiny, hair-like projections, found in male chimps and cats, can trigger female ovulation. They also increase sensitivity and remove existing sperm, ostensibly giving males a reproductive advantage. Bejerano suspects the spines are conducive to monogamy.
Could restoring the relevant regulatory DNA in humans resurrect penile spines? "I'm going to leave it to others to paint that picture and its consequences," said evolutionary biologist Sean B. Carroll of the University of Wisconsin, who wasn't involved in the study. "But my guess is that something would probably happen."
More practically, the findings underscore the importance of regulatory changes to human evolution. "Regulation is a choreograph critical to shaping how organisms appear. This research is going to be a hot trail to follow," said Carroll. "It's not just about what genes you have, but how they're used."

THE PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIPTPC Sawgrass (PLAYERS Stadium Course)Ponte Vedra Beach, FLPar: 36-36—72Yards: 7,215FedExCup Points: 27,500 Winner: 4,950Purse: $8,000,000*Winner: $1,440,000*2006 Champion: Stephen Ames (274, -14)
Stewart Cink and Patrick Sheehan (first round) and Craig Parry (second round) all posted two eagles in a single round at the 2006 PLAYERS Championship.Bernhard Langer made his 19th cut at THE PLAYERS Championship in 2006, the third-most in tournament history, behind Tom Kite (23) and Tom Watson (21).Brad Faxon extended his consecutive-cuts-made streak in this event to 14, which is the longest in THE PLAYERS Championship history. There were four holes-in-one at the 2006 PLAYERS Championship. In the second round, Justin Leonard recorded a hole-in-one at the 192-yard 13th hole using a 5-iron, while Jesper Parnevik used a 7-iron from the identical distance on No. 13. In the third round, Henrik Stenson aced the 13th, measuring 175 yards that day, using a 7-iron. Fred Couples posted the fourth ace of the week in the final round on the 13th, a hole that played 159 yards. The previous high of three aces in a PLAYERS Championship came in both 1999 and 2000. The four holes-in-one in 2006 also marked the first time since the 2002 Buick Classic (Stephen Allan, Angel Cabrera, Larry Mize and Paul Gow) that four aces had been recorded in the same PGA TOUR tournament. The 13th hole has given up nine aces in the 25-year history at the TPC Sawgrass.By winning last year's PLAYERS, Stephen Ames earned his second PGA TOUR victory in his 208th career start at age 41 years, 10 months, 28 days and became the fifth player over 40 to win THE PLAYERS Championship, joining Fred Funk (2005), Hal Sutton (2000), Calvin Peete (1985) and Lee Trevino (1980). Ames was the same age as Sutton when Sutton captured his second PLAYERS Championship in 2000. Both players share an April 28 birthday.The six-shot victory by Stephen Ames in 2006 marked the largest margin of victory since Davis Love III won by six in 2003. The all-time tournament-record-winning margin is seven strokes by Steve Elkington in 1997. Ames' six-shot win also was the second-largest margin of victory of the 2006 season, behind J.B. Holmes' seven-stroke win at the FBR Open.A year ago, South Africa's Retief Goosen, currently the world's ninth-ranked player, recorded his first top-10 finish in eight starts at THE PLAYERS Championship. He finished as the runner-up to Stephen Ames.Eight players collected their first top-10s at THE PLAYERS Championship in 2006. They were Retief Goosen (second), Pat Perez, Camilo Villegas and Henrik Stenson (tied for third) and Vaughn Taylor, Bo Van Pelt, John Rollins and Carl Pettersson (tied for eighth).

So much easier
I agree the taste is different from the fresh milk and when I want to drink milk, I buy fresh milk but for cooking, tea etc I use this one and it is perfect. It lasts several weeks and you don't have to store all the bottles in the fridge. The packaging is perfect.
