Comedian Patton Oswalt's Boston Marathon Bombing Facebook Post Goes Viral
I know Patton Oswalt is an actor and comedian, I never watched the "King of Queens," but some how I know he was on it. I'm guessing I've seen his stand-up late night on Comedy Central, or as a guest on a late night show. Honestly, I don't know why I know his name. But after his heart felt response to the Boston Marathon bombing went viral yesterday, I think a lot of people will know exactly how they know him.
Here's what Oswalt posted:
I remember, when 9/11 went down, my reaction was, "Well, I've had it with humanity."
But I was wrong. I don't know what's going to be revealed to be behind all of this mayhem. One human insect or a poisonous mass of broken sociopaths.
But here's what I DO know. If it's one person or a HUNDRED people, that number is not even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population on this planet. You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out. (Thanks FAKE Gallery founder and owner Paul Kozlowski for pointing this out to me). This is a giant planet and we're lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence. One of them is, every once in awhile, the wiring of a tiny sliver of the species gets snarled and they're pointed towards darkness.
But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We'd have eaten ourselves alive long ago.
So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, "The good outnumber you, and we always will."
As of of the time this was published, his post had been shared over 200,000 times. And Oswalt's Facebook had ballooned from around 140,000 "likes" to over 222,000.

Tuk Tuk Lands in America
The Environmentally Friendly Tuk Tuk Lands in America
These vehicles have been manufactured for 50 to 60 years," said Jamie Hendrix, chief operating officer of Tuk Tuk USA. (www.tuktukusainc.com) "It is a tested automobile all over the world except here."
Tuk Tuk USA officials, as well as those from the company's marketing arm, Tuk Tuk Mania, are hoping to change that by setting up the company's corporate headquarters in Chattanooga. They are searching for a 7,500- to 10,000-square-foot facility for a showroom and assembly area.
"We are from here and want our company to stay here," Mr. Hendrix said.
The vehicles are very popular in South and East Asia where they originated and are typically used as taxis, but Jeff Rohr, president of Tuk Tuk Mania, said the U.S. models are faster, safer and "the most fun thing you have ever been in." The vehicles are made in Thailand.
Tuk Tuks will run up to 55 miles per hour and get between 40 and 50 miles per gallon. Some models run on propane, and officials are hoping an electric model is available soon.

I am sorry to hear that, If you are interested we can ship New/ Used Autorickshaws/ Tuk-Tuks anywhere in the world http://www.pimpmyshaw.com/
These guys have been saying they are bringing these vehicles to market for years now. Two years ago they told me 30 days and the EPA process would be complete. Are they EPA approved now? NOPE

The founders of M&C Saatchi earned close to £3 million a head in pay, benefits and share awards last year.
Chief executive David Kershaw and fellow directors Maurice Saatchi, Bill Muirhead and Jeremy Sinclair have "shared equally in a £9.4 million gain" from shares as part of the advertising agency group's long-term incentive plan.
That gain, worth £2.35 million each, came on top of basic pay of about £420,000 a head. The directors each hold a 6.7% stake and received another windfall in January when the company returned £21 million to shareholders after selling 75.1% of media-buying arm Walker Media.
Sinclair defended the sale of Walker Media, whose clients include Marks & Spencer.
"It is our hope that our remaining 24.9% will be worth more than the 100% of Walker we used to own," Sinclair explained, noting that profits from subsidiary Talk PR have increased by fourfold since M&C Saatchi reduced its stake to 51% in 2010. Shares in Soho-based M&C Saatchi have more than doubled in three years.Reuse content

10 SHOWS TO GIVE MATINEES TODAY; Box Office May Have a Busy Holiday Despite Forecast for Continued Heat Spell
By J. P. SHANLEY ();
July 04, 1949,
, Section , Page 10, Column , words
Ten of the fourteen attractions now playing on Broadway stages will offer special Independence Day matinees this afternoon. The forecast of "sunny and hot" weather for the holiday is far from ideal from the theatre standpoint. Patronage traditionally has been better when rain or cool winds interfered with outdoor pursuits.

add the look of live edge to our most popular styles
table bases
turnkey metal bases for fast on-site installation
Read on to learn more our reclaimed wood restaurant tables, or click here to watch a video of how our table tops are manufactured.
More Affordable Than You Think
Viridian's promise is hand-crafted, affordable goodness from Portland. You don't need to pay top dollar to get quality reclaimed wood restaurant tables. Our competitive pricing often surprises our customers, and we offer quantity discounts starting at 10 tables. Pick your favorite reclaimed wood from the images above, and then contact us to get a price quote.
A Unique Look
Reclaimed wood tables make a strong statement in your dining room. Some restaurants hide their tables under linens, which is an expensive and long-term cost. Inspired restaurateurs make reclaimed wood tables a conversation piece! Our repeat customers often tell us their design concept focuses on the tops we carefully craft for them. Many people think of rustic options like our popular antique barnwood when picturing reclaimed wood restaurant tables, but we also have sophisticated smooth top options that suit every taste.
Quick Lead Times for Last Minute Orders
We understand that sometimes the tables are the last thing to get ordered in a restaurant. We strive to get every order out in 2 to 4 weeks. We stock large slabs of our most popular reclaimed wood materials that we cut individual tables from. These slabs allow us to shorten our lead times significantly for quick-turn projects.
Built to Last
We select only the highest quality kiln dried reclaimed wood for our table tops, and our industry-leading prefinish wins the heart's of our restaurant clients. First, we fill all major knots, nail holes and openings in the wood with epoxy to keep your tables looking amazing despite constant spills and wipe downs. Next, we finish with a multi-layer conversion varnish that exceeds all KCMA performance tests for stain and scuff-resistance. These tests are brutal and involve placing common detergents, vinegar, lemon and even 100-proof alcohol on the finish for 24 hours to make sure the it holds up on your tables. Finally, we recess metal angle iron into the underside of our solid reclaimed wood tables to ensure they will never warp.
The White Terrycloth Test
We are passionate (and OCD!) about the quality and performance of Viridian's rustic reclaimed wood tables. Our craftsmen have perfected making the "just right" amount of rustic on our tables. We make sure the best aspects of the reclaimed wood shines through, without food getting stuck in nooks and crannies. Also, every restaurant on Earth uses inexpensive white terrycloth towels to wipe down, but they snag and shed on tables that are too rustic. We use this benchmark test and work hard to avoid catches on our tables.
Viridian's goal is on-time, on-budget and no surprises! We design our tables to fit on all common restaurant bases, and we also offer turnkey community table bases. You will receive your tables securely packaged and ready for fast on site installation.
Not Convinced? See What Our Customers Have to Say!
"We recently received our order of antique barn wood tabletops from Viridian Wood and couldn't be happier with the look and feel of these great tables. They really contribute to the atmosphere in a positive way. I was surprised that the whole process only took a few weeks from start to finish. The staff was very helpful and answered all our questions while guiding us through our selection. Pricing was competitive and all of our communication with the Viridian staff was prompt, professional, and courteous. I would not hesitate to recommend this company and look forward to working with them again on future projects."
– Joel Carson
Pope House Bourbon Lounge– Portland Oregon
"I have used Viridian on two recent restaurant projects and have been very pleased with the products and the customer service. I have not found any table top manufacturer locally who can beat their quality, price and fast lead times. The table finishes have held up very well in a typically tough restaurant environment. In fact, I plan on using them for my next restaurant project which will include custom shelving, benches and of course, table tops. I highly recommend Viridian!"

Take a Tour of Our Process
Reclamation & Grading
We reclaim wood from a variety of sources, and it all passes through our 40,000 SF processing facility. Here we remove all the metal, defect and high grade the wood needed for tabletop material. Pulling all those nails is tough work, but it's worth it! We recycle 99% of all inbound material, but only the best of the best is made into tables.
Kiln Drying
Every board that is made into a table must first go through our kiln. This process sanitizes the wood and ensures that each piece is dry and stable enough to be glued into a table top.
After proper drying, the wood goes through a variety of milling operations to prepare it to be glued up. Bent boards are given straight edges, and lumber is further graded to make sure it is the highest quality.
These rough sawn boards then go through a high-tech molder, and its many precision cutting heads shape and surface the wood so it can be glued up. The tolerances for this machine are within thousandths of an inch! The molder cleans up the edges of the lumber to get it ready for glue.
Glue Up
Each table is dry-fitted to ensure a good look and proper fit. One often overlooked aspect of gluing up tables is the orientation of the grain. Our craftsmen know how to orient each board for maximum stability. At this point planks are edge glued and placed in a large clamp to become a glued slab.
Once out of the clamp, epoxy is added to open knots and cracks/holes larger than 1/8". This creates a great surface for finishing, and it helps keep food, liquid and other debris out of nooks and crannies so your tables look amazing for many years.
When the epoxy has dried, the rough table top slabs go to a large overhead sander to remove excess glue and excess epoxy. We start with a rough grit to get all of the tables to the same thickness, and then move to finer grits to create a smooth wood surface ready to receive our durable finish.
Precision Trim
Each table order is accompanied by a detailed work order that sets out the specifications for each restaurant table. Over-sized slabs are trimmed to exact size, and edges are slightly rounded.
Angle Iron
Everyone has experienced a wooden restaurant table that was either warped or had a hideous stress crack in the middle. This is because solid wood expands and contracts with changes in temperature and humidity. We are perfectionists and hate seeing this, so our construction method includes recessed angle iron and several other steps to account for wood movement. Other manufacturers skip this step or build in unsightly under supports that affect where you can place a standard table base. Our process takes extra care, time and cost, but makes our tables outshine and outlast the rest.
The most important component of a wood table is the finish. Our conversion varnish is the best finish you can apply to a table top. It exceeds the KCMA test for bleach water, wine, citrus, and other punishing substances. Our finish is also top rated for abrasion resistance and will last for many years in the harsh environment of a restaurant. We apply several coats to both the top and back to ensure that our tables meet your expectations.
Packaging and Shipping
After your beautiful tables are finished, we take great care to make sure they are packaged to get to you in one piece. Shippers are hard on tables, so we protect your tables in our custom built crates. You will receive turnkey reclaimed wood tables, ready for any base you either already have or buy at your local restaurant supply store.

Grandfather of the Bugeye Mafia
2013 Subaru BRZ Limited
2002 Subaru WRX Bugeyebrid Wagon -- SOLD
2002 Subaru WRX Sedan -- SOLD
The 07-08 350z is good for 13.5 @103-104mph according to mags. Now real owners are getting 13.4-13.5 on average with the good drivers getting as low as 13.1 at 106mph. From what I've seen on the 09 WRX it will do a 13.5 @ 102mph per the mags and owners. So that being said it would probably be a drivers race with the edge going towards the Z. Thats going from a dig. From a roll the Z will win hands down; it just has much more power to the wheels than the WRX. Take the launch out of the equation and the WRX becomes much more handicaped.
As for the talk about the new Z and the G37, you can't compare the two. The Z and G37 aren't nearly the same as the 350z and G35 were. The G37 is much slower due to weight when compared to the 370z. The 370z is a 13.1-13.3 sec car at 106-108mph. Against a 09 WRX the WRX would lose very easily assuming equal drivers. From a roll it wouldn't even be close.
My brother has a 05 350 z stock and i crush him from the dig and roll on in my stage 1 09 wrx the thing just flys.I had a 05 stage 2 wrx and it was fast but my stage 1 09 would eat it for breakfast

Contact Ruger immediately. Do nothing to that firearm except put in a box and ship it to Ruger.
I have a Mark III ( I know you were asking about a Mark II) but I have never experienced an issue like that nor heard of one.
Dealing with Ruger is not bad once you get in touch with someone.
Good luck and post again to give an update.

I went to FL 2 weeks ago and Catera sat outside under snow. Since my return she's been sputtering, shaking, and stalling while warming up. Strong exhaust smell during her temper tantrum. I bought her in Tampa in 2006 and she might be mad at me for not taking her home for a visit. Needed to take my father's 4-Runner due to the amount of luggage. Once the needle lifts off its peg the idle settles down but it's still slightly rough. Suspected contaminated fuel (water either from condensation or snowmelt). Last one doubtful since cap was brand new last summer. Ideas for cause and cure welcomed. I don't want to throw money in the wrong direction. Have already tried 2 bottles each of Seafoam, Heet, and on 2nd tank of fresh fuel. Help.
PS: Noticed flucuation in operating temp from usual 175 to 209 degrees. Lowest during cruise, highest when stationary. Coolant filled to line. Not overheating but still worthy of mention.

ICTC agrees to host Challenger center
Officials of the Indiana County Technology Center and a community-based panel promoting science and space education have agreed on basing a Challenger Learning Center at the tech center campus north of Indiana in White Township.
The ICTC joint operating committee, composed of representatives of six school districts that share ownership of the school, voted Tuesday to serve as the host site for the center.
According to a news release issued by ICTC and the Challenger committee, the tech center will more formally develop the terms for starting the Challenger program, including a location on ICTC property and whether any existing ICTC buildings or staff would be part of the Challenger development.
The proposal calls for ICTC to grant a 50-year lease for token rent of $1 a year for 10 acres of the school grounds to be the home of what would be called the Central Allegheny Challenger Learning Center, according to B. Edward Smith, president of the Blairsville-Saltsburg School District board of directors.
Smith reported that detail at a school board meeting Wednesday evening.
This is more than one small step toward getting the program off the ground, according to officials of the local Challenger program.
"We at Challenger are very excited about the resolution for many reasons, not the least of which is that ICTC's tremendous success in educating Indiana County students in the technical fields will resonate strongly with potential corporate and foundation donors," program leaders wrote in a news release. "Challenger's goal is to continue that legacy."
The space education program has been under study since July 2012, and has picked up momentum over the past month.
The Challenger Foundation, set up with the goal of promoting space and science education following the explosion of the Challenger space shuttle 27 years ago, has authorized about 50 learning centers around the world and in July granted an application by Indiana Area School District and Homer-Center School District to establish one in Indiana County.
An ad hoc committee directed by Indiana attorney Julia Trimarchi Cuccaro first studied the academic and financial viability of starting such a center before recommending moving ahead with the project. Construction of a new building and outfitting it with classrooms modeled after NASA's Mission Control center in Houston and the labs used by astronauts on the International Space Station, along with budgeted operating costs for the first year, are estimated at $3 million.
The committee and others from the Indiana and Homer-Center districts have said the center would be funded by private-sector contributions and user fees rather than public tax dollars.
The resolution by the ICTC operating committee "is an exciting opportunity for both organizations to offer enhanced STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) programs for the communities in our region, particularly Indiana County," said Vicki Smith, chairwoman of the ICTC committee and president of the Homer-Center school board.
"This is a huge step forward in establishing a regional Challenger Learning Center here in Indiana County," said Walter Schroth, a representative of the Indiana Area School District board of directors. "To have accomplished this today tells me that there is a high demand to increase STEM opportunities in this region. This is really good news for our entire community."
The Central Allegheny Challenger Learning Center has been designated to serve 22 counties in central and western Pennsylvania as a destination for all-day science class field trips and corporate training programs.

Help America Vote Act program awards $55,000 grant to Benedictine University
Help America Vote Act program awards $55,000 grant to Benedictine University
July 7, 2010
Phil Brozynski, Media Relations Manager
(630) 829-6094
The grant, made available under the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) program, will help fight the increasing shortage of election judges across the state and country. The CCLPS will partner with the DuPage County Election Commission to recruit, train and certify Benedictine students and other local college students as election judges.
The Political Science department at Benedictine University will be offering a new seminar course in the fall for students participating in the program who wish to receive college credit. The seminar will help students gain a contextual understanding of the election process and good citizenship. In addition, other courses across campus will be adapted to include similar content.
However, a student who is not interested in college credit may still become an election judge by completing on online course offered by the DuPage County Election Commission. The only requirement is that the participant be a registered voter and U.S. citizen. A person only needs to be certified as an election judge once, and does not have to reside in DuPage County to participate in the program.

Obedience Classes
After a long search I finally found an obedience class that I was comfortable with! Zeus is now 20 weeks old, we have went to 2 classes so far, the instructor told me she used pinch collars for training, along with a lot of positive reinforcement, I wasn't so sure about the whole pinch collar thing so she said I could use the martingale collar I had. No matter what I tried Zeus pulled horribly, about 15 minutes into the second class the trainer suggested I try a pinch collar, she said she had one I could try, the moment I put it on Zeus I noticed a huge difference, no more pulling at all, he walks right at my side! The trainer reassured me that the collar wasn't a bad thing if properly used and instructed me on how to use it, so far it's working well and classes are going great. Today I took Zeus out to practice obedience at the ball park while my boys had team practice, after a while a man came up to me and said "I wish I had a dog that minded like that!" I felt very proud of Zeus, all our hard work is paying off! Now if I could just get him to stop randomly barking at people, one thing at a time I guess!

nothing wrong with the prong collar, as long as it's used correctly, and if you go to class and do your home work, you won't need the prong collar after awhile
That's how the prong collar was introduced to us too...by a trainer who showed me how to use it. I use it for all walks now....has helped TONS! Walks are now enjoyable by both me and Roxy.
Sounds JUST like my trainer in Fresno CA -- called it "power steering for dogs". Once the dog listened well enough to learn the zone for loose leash and heeling and build a habit, the prong could be swapped back out for a martingale.
I like the prong collar too, for a pulling dog. There is no reason for the handler to pull or tug. I have used them on several dogs with fine results.

Revolvers that use auto pistol rounds with full-moon clips are much faster to reload than guns demanding conventional push/twist speedloaders. Auto cartridges are also generally shorter that revolver cartridges (9mm vs. .357, for example), and this also makes them faster to load.
I like the idea of 9mm and .45 ACP revolvers. The faster/simpler reloading ameliorates at least one deficiency of the revolver compared to the auto as a fighting tool. If I had to carry a revolver for defense or duty, rather than my preferred Glock, I'd vastly prefer one using an auto cartridge and moon clips. I'd probably choose 9mm, since .45 ACP revolvers are generally pretty big and unwieldy (though I used to have a Smith 625-2 that I liked).
I don't really see a disadvantage to the moon clips, unless you are dextrous and cool enough to accomplish a "tactical" revolver reload under fire. Even then, I guess you could carry a combination of full-moon and half-moon clips.

Beginning Friday, Greg Hackney will compete in his 11th Bassmaster Classic, but he's already landed a trophy largemouth that he'll cherish the rest of his life.
At Wednesday evening's Night of Champions banquet, held at the Hard Rock Casino in Tulsa, Hackney was totally surprised when Carhartt's senior brand manager, Tim Humes, graciously presented him a replica mount of the 10-pound, 9-ounce largemouth Hackney caught last March. It was the single largest bass among all the Carhartt Big Bass entries during the 2012 Bassmaster Elite Series season.
Ironically, Hackney caught the fish during the very first day of the very first Elite event of 2012, on the St. Johns River in Florida.
"It's such an incredibly nice mount, and, believe it or not, it's the only nice piece of fish taxidermy I've ever owned. I was totally shocked when they rolled it out to present it to me," said a truly appreciative Hackney, who reflected on Carhartt's unmatched reputation among workers in the logging industry he was a part of, before turning full-time pro.
"When you're in Florida, your thinking about your chance to catch a giant fish on every cast – every pitch – every flip," reflected Hackney. "That fish bit a black/blue Strike King Rodent in a shallow hole of eel grass. I was using my signature series 7-11 Quantum flipping stick and 65-pound braided line on an EXO reel," recalling details as though it was yesterday.
Carhartt is the title sponsor of the Bassmaster College Series, and awards a Carhartt Big Bass cash bonus to anglers at several levels of B.A.S.S. competition for wearing their durable apparel. Elite Series anglers like Hackney win $1,500 at each regular season Elite if they weigh in the Carhartt Big Bass of the tournament while wearing Carhartt clothing, and $2,500 at the Bassmaster Classic.
"I told one of my buddies that this replica fish mount is larger than the actual Classic trophy," grinned Hackney. Wouldn't it be neat if he hauled home that slightly 'smaller' $500,000 trophy from Tulsa too this week?
Beginning Friday, Greg Hackney will compete in his 11th Bassmaster Classic, but he's already landed a trophy largemouth that he'll cherish the rest of his life.

And by the way, the difference between the US cutting off free trade and Iran is that the US doesn't threaten to use indiscriminate military force to block off geographical locale that, at best, it only has 50% claim to.

On June 2nd, the man slave-master...uh...guardian...stopped coming home. A lot of people were here and they were all sad & crying. Even that blasted dog was sad, so I couldn't even be mean to him. They kept saying something about an accident at work. They kept telling the woman guardian & Courtney about how sorry they were that the man was gone. He hasn't come home back yet and I don't think he will. I always plotted to kill them, but I was never going to bring my plans to fruition. The woman guardian needs me now. She is so sad and hugs me a lot. Her daughter does, too. I am obviously needed here and will cease my escape attempts. I love them & they are hurting...they are my duty now.
I had to bring the woman captor the head of my fuzzy mouse to show her what I was capable of doing. She relented a bit...and I have my chance to gain access to the computer.
Christmas was good...for being a cat of my caliber held against my will. Ebony and I received fuzzy mice and some catnip mice. Since the catnip made me intoxicated, my guard was down and I allowed the imbicile dog to gain access to my hidden cache of toys, snacks & catnip. All because the vile woman captor tried to appease us with cheap trinkets and goodwill. I'll show her goodwill...all over her new AREA RUG!!
Until next time, stupid humans....
That vile woman! She has impeded my work since the day I escaped from that wretched animal shelter. The woman captor seems to be more on guard with me as of late. I've got to get out of here. That dog keeps mouthing my neck. I've got to divise a way to use his size and lack of intelligence as means of escape. I will need to think about this one. In the meantime, I may teach him a new game, like 'swallow the stuff under the sink' or 'time to play in traffic'.
I think I'm going to turn in for a nice long nap, but I think I'll catch the weather report first. Then, I will divise my plans for escape. Forecast for tomorrow; A few sprinkles of genius with a chance of doom....or whatever.
I've must leave my captors a subtle reminder to change my litterbox and to remember to leave a fresh copy of Wall Street Journal next to it.
Til' we speak again, stupid humans...

My name is Chris Edwards. I am new to the site and very interested in DIY projects. I recently swapped out a shower in my fathers house. What a mess. We had to cut the show out by hand, the doorways were to small. I also sell hardwood flooring for a living. So if anyone has any DIY questions on flooring I would be happy to answer.
I just read your post and I have a question about pre-finished hardwood flooring.
I installed pre-finished hardwood flooring approx. 3 yrs. ago, and in a certain area where there tends to be heavier traffic, I have noticed that the sheen in that area has dulled.
Would you have any suggestions as to what I can do other than to put a rug there, which I do not want to do as there is a door entrance and I really don't like the look.
Thanks for your help.

NBC2 News - Victim steals burglars' van
A western Washington state man outsmarts some burglars by beating them at their own game!
When they broke into his home, he left them with no way to getaway.
32-year-old Patrick Rosario was working on a project in his basement last Tuesday afternoon when two burglars broke down the front door.
"It was just a big boom and I heard running footsteps," Rosario said.
He peeked through a crack under the basement door and saw unfamiliar jeans running around, pulling out his TV.
He ducked out the backdoor while calling 9-1-1.
He got to the driveway and saw the getaway van.
Here is the verbatim of the 911 call:
Patrick: "They just broke in and they've been running around in my house and oh look they left the door open with the car. Uh I just drove their car away."
911 Dispatcher: "Don't do that sir! You just stole their car"
Patrick: "Yeah, I know I just stole their car."
911 Dispatcher: "Okay, you can now be charged with that. Stop."
Patrick: "Okay, I'm stopping, i'm stopping."
That's right, the van was running, so Patrick jumped in and drove around the corner to a friend's house.
"It did occur to me as I was jumping in and putting the van into drive that I was actually robbing my robbers, which was a pretty satisfying feeling I gotta say!" Rosario said.
By the time officers arrived, the would-be thieves were gone, Leaving a pile of TVs, electronics, and even rosario's son's tricycle behind. Officers are searching the suspects vehicle for clues.
"It was simultaneously one of the smarter and dumber things I've ever done," Rosario said.

We have learned a lot about big data in the past 10 years, but will we be able to change the world with data? It is possible! However, we've got to understand more about the data and its benefits before thinking ways to change the world with it. Certainly! Data has the same power like crude oil. Data drives businesses and enables managers to make their strategic decisions faster, the same as oil enables us to drive cars. Oil cannot make cars faster and smarter but data does because data bears the power to drive businesses faster and smarter.
What is real-time data analysing?
Real-time data analytics is truly an emerging power these days and people understand it well. Therefore, we need to address real-time benefits and what real time is.
Do we need to call a real-time for seconds, milliseconds or nanoseconds?
Imagine you open a water tab where there is no drops but steaming water which is powerful and unstoppable without employing a right control to handle it. That is what we call real-time. Today's data is structured, unstructured and semi-structured. Also, data is from different data sources such as machines, sensors, social media, databases, and different applications. Data types are video, audio, text and databases; videos need to be the transcripted to text for analysing during the steaming to make real-time text analysing possible. Data is in different languages and it requires understanding to analyse the sentiment.
Tomorrow belongs to the speed!
The capabilities to store a large amount of data faster isn't new. What is new is the capability to do something that can help get meaning-full from the insight faster and cost-effectively. We all know when it comes to speed, we need nanoseconds ingesting, milliseconds analysing and seconds to output meaning-based information in dashboards or make it available to query using the search box.
Today businesses and governments both have been storing data whether in the form of structured, unstructured or semi-structured in many decades. We are witnessing today, however that there is an explosion of none traditional ways of data collection, hence distributing and managing it in real time. New techniques are emerging for analysing data and coping with an unprecedented changes is costing a lot of money for implementing it. In addition to new capabilities, handling a large amount of data is becoming an everyday problem while open sources and different vendors who want to compete with each other are developing technology that can ingest, store, secure, analyse, manage data and save cost by using inexpensive commodity hardware.
HP Vertica database is the solution for analysing unstructured and structured data in real time.
Reading structured, unstructured or semi-structured data faster can be achieved by applying partially in-memory database HP Vertica. HP Vertica is MPP columnar database with pre-in built analytic functions because it stores and operationalizes high-value business data. The Speed and scale of Vertica are unmatched. HP Vertica is a column-based database that encodes on the columns using different algorithms, and it can be easily configured depending on manual or automated settings. HP Enterprise offers HP Vertica as-a- service on a managed cloud or on- premises.
How HP Verica can analyse data in real time?
HP Vertica advises that an Encoding ratio POC is undertaken. The POC loads customer's data and the uncompressed file is compared to the size of the database on the disc to determine this ratio. HP Vertica has another unique features compare to its competitors.
This is how real-time data processing and analysing is made possible. Also, HP Vertica supports industry standard data security layers including LDAP, Kerberos, Time synchronisation, Authenticated and Authorization.
HP Vertica for SQL on Hadoop
Many database vendors like to broaden their system's capabilities Hadoop Ecosystem. Similarly, HP Enterprise harbours an enterprise-level SQL on Hadoop Big Data analytics engine that taps into the richest set of analytics capabilities for Hadoop. The latter dramatically reduces complexity while accelerating time to generate strategic and key insights when the system is functionally operating. Therefore, adopting HP Vertica will enable you to avoid the complexity brought about by the use of data ingesting and analysis tools.

I would replace them all at the same time. (I dont know anything about a donut other than glazed and chocolate)These mounts work in concert and your only as strong as your weakest link. That is why the passenger side motor mount always fails because no one changes the Driver side upper trans mount (under the air box) and the dog bone (under the car mounting trans and frame together).
That Upper Trans mount is a terrible design as well. You can run an OEM mount if you want but at over $125 for just the passenger mount i Dunno, I got the Heavy Duty DEA version from Rock auto for like $50. All together I have about $100 - $125 invested in all 3 mounts.
To be honest I dont think the OEM part is that much better if at all better! You know the aftermarkets manufacture them for the OEM's. Ford does not make them, they are just an assembly and marketing house.
Rock auto has an anchor mount for $37 for your car, IF you want OEM add $100
They also have Anchor and DEA Torque Strut Mounts (lower trans mount) for $17-$24 and the Upper Trans Mount (drivers side) for $16.
Its up to you. Im taking my chances and seeing how they handle this winters pounding. And I tend to drive my cars hard. Ill take the risk and spend The $100 and see how they work out, They are easy enough to change, Took me about an hour.
in your scenario
Aftermarket= $77 + Shipping
And I can say this enough! Change all 3!

|Postgame Infographic
CHAPEL HILL – The UNC women's lacrosse team persevered its way to a 17-12 victory over No. 13 Northwestern Sunday afternoon at Fetzer Field, finally putting away the Wildcats late in the second half of the nonconference battle. The Tar Heels trailed or were tied much of the way and didn't lead by more than a goal until Ela Hazar scored with 12:41 to play put the Tar Heels ahead 12-10 en route to the win.
The second-ranked Tar Heels improved to 8-1 with the win, while Northwestern fell to 3-5.
UNC junior Maggie Bill tied career bests in goals (4) and assists (3) to establish a new career high with seven points. Junior Marie McCool also had four goals, and the Tar Heels got hat tricks from Hazar and senior Sydney Holman. Molly Hendrick, Carly Reed and Sammy Jo Tracy had a goal each in the win.
"We didn't think this was going to be anything other than what it was, which was a back-and-forth game," UNC coach Jenny Levy said. "Northwestern is a good team. They're well-coached, they play with a lot of fire, they came in with great strategies to counter what we do well, and they have plenty of pieces on the field to be really good.
"We stuck with the game plan and trusted and believed and stayed positive through things that were imperfect, and that's how you eventually chip away at what's going on."
Hazar opened the scoring just 26 seconds in, on a pass from Holman. But the Tar Heel lead was short-lived as Northwestern tied the score 24 seconds later, and then went on to take a 2-1 lead. After that, the game was a tug-of-war throughout the half, with the Wildcats twice leading by two, but UNC never further ahead than a goal. The teams were tied four times in the first half before the Tar Heels edged ahead to take a 7-6 halftime lead.
Northwestern quickly tied it up after the break and then regained the lead with two quick goals. Again, the advantage seesawed. NU's Liza Elder scored her second goal of the game to make it 10-10 with 17 minutes to play and the score was tied there for almost four minutes, until Tracy put the Tar Heels up for good and did so with flair. Her between-the-legs shot with 13:20 to play beat NU goalkeeper Mallory Weisse and gave UNC a lead that would continue to grow.

Back-to-back goals by Hazar and another by Bill made the advantage four, 14-10, before the Wildcats scored again. The Tar Heels then scored a string of three more – by Reed, Bill and McCool – before a late NU goal made the final 17-12.
"Maggie Bill had a big day today," Levy said of her two-sport Tar Heel. "She's continuing to get better coming off soccer and continuing to find her stride. We had a great effort offensively – seven threats on the field at all times."
UNC led 33-25 in shots, but trailed 17-14 in draw controls, with a greater deficit early in the game. Northwestern won nine of 14 in the first half and then came up with the first three in the second half before the Tar Heels finally got rolling. In the end, UNC led 9-8 in second-half draws, and McCool led the Tar Heels with six for the day.
While it wasn't exactly a relaxing game for the Tar Heel coaches, Levy knows her team grows from wins like this one. "When you have games that challenge you in a lot of different ways through the course of 60 minutes, it's something you can build upon later in the season and say 'We've been here before,'" she said. "You've got to dig your cleats in and play a full 60 minutes both mentally and physically. Even though the score had a pretty good differential at the end, it didn't feel that way. The game felt pretty close all the way through."
Next up for UNC is the fourth in a four-game homestand, on Saturday against Boston College. The Atlantic Coast Conference matchup is set for a 2:15 p.m. start.

I am getting a bit fed up with the "if I had a dog, I'd get a REAL one" comments(56 Posts)
I know it doesn't matter, I know it's stupid, but I am going to snap at the next person who makes a degoratory comment about the size of my dogs.
We have a 7yo parson russell terrier and a week ago we got a 7month old rescue pup who is a border terrier cross. So yes, they are small dogs.
This weekend just seemed to be really bad for it. We were at a thing on Friday and someone was congratulating us on our new dog, asking what kind it was etc and immediately there comments of "oh if I got a dog I'd get a real one" and "nothing under my knee height counts as a dog" etc etc.
Then yesterday at a bbq my friend was talking about her old dog (passed away years ago) and made the same sort of comments, how if they got another one it'd have to be "proper" dog etc. Both mine were there, and were not being in any way anything unlike dogs, so I really don't understand it.
I get that people like different breeds and looks of dog, and some prefer large dogs, I really do understand that. But it is beginning to piss me off that anything under eg labrador size is not considered a "proper" dog! And even if you think it, WHY would you say it to someone who has TWO SMALL DOGS??
I am tempted to come back with "Oh I'm the same about husbands, I wouldn't want one under 6' 2", he's not really a proper man otherwise, imo"
I get this with my Yorkie. I've also seen it on here- people asking advice on getting a certain breed and people saying - no get a real dog.
Also for the person who said they prefer a big dog because they can take them out to play in a big garden- a small dog will just as happily go out to play in a big garden! Just because they are small doesn't mean everything has to be miniaturised
The dog with the biggest 'personality' was our long-haired Dachshund. But she was very stubborn and had an aggressive trait towards other dogs. She looked beautiful.
When I was out walking my terrier I met a couple walking a calm lab. The woman said to me "that's the sort of dog my husband would prefer we had". He went on to explain my terrier is a proper dog - because it's feisty, with a big personality and can still do a proper job (ratting) unlike their boring lab (his words, not mine).
I suppose some people have a mental picture of "dog" and if the breed doesn't fit in it's not right for them.
Personally I love terriers for their big dog in a small body personality.
If the dog has a sweet lovely nature that is what me makes me love them. I have loved my FIL's St Bernard, my niece's rescue lurcherX, my friend's 4 yorkie x pomeraniums, a neighbour's JR.
It really doesn't matter how big or small - it is their temperament.
My own, as I am older , is a quiet, laid back, non-hyper breed a Lhasa Apso, weighing 5 Kilos and 10" high. Not a sporting breed, but is just what I wanted at my age.
Nobody has said anything but "She is so sweet and serene", by men as well as women.
I like it when I see people with a mix of shapes and sizes - for instance a pair of gorgeous Leonburgers accompanied by a chihauhau puppy, or a couple of wolfhounds with a wire-haired dachshund (wire haired dachsies look like sawn off wolfies rather than dobies ).
And in such mixes, 9 times out of 10 it will be the little dog who's making all the noise and bossing the others around.
I'm personally find several breeds/type of dogs unappealing, but would I make a derogatory remarks to their owners? Of course not! Why? Because I have manners, I'm not a numpty and what's it got to do with me?
So why do people think it's ok to do this to the owner of small dogs???
As the owner of 1 small and 2 tiny dogs ( pic on profile ) I have to admit that I have only had a couple of remarks in real life, I think a lot of people think the Affenpinschers are my Schnauzer's pups and we live in London, but I got really fed up of the anti-small dog stuff on a dog forum I used to frequent.
Ironically, after being told my boy was too small to be a proper lurcher the other day, I walked past a woman this morning who stopped in her tracks, looked a bit worried and said 'Gosh - what a big dog!'.
You know how it goes though ...
You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you cant please all of the people all of the time.
Timetonap - I have a giant breed too....different sort of mountain dog, and the comments about him eating smaller dogs drives me crazy......
Though he did chase a lapso the other day - he was off lead and I hadn't seen them....he just wanted to say hello...but I was mortified .I saw the same lady the next day, this time he was on lead, and her lapso was all Barky at him, and she suggested I let him off to teach it a lesson. She knew mine wouldn't hurt hers, but felt hers was being a little brazen because giant pup was on lead.
I wouldn't worry, MMM. I reckon the OP just knows some odd people .
I have two little dogs - one cavalier and a sheltie. We are town based and have never heard any derogatory comments about their size. Often stopped by people who say how beautiful they are. We are planning on moving somewhere rura next year so will be interesting to see if things change then
It may be the people who carry their chihuahuas and other small dogs in their arms or handbags that prompt these sort of comments. (I totally understand why people would pick their little dogs up in crowded places.) There's also many people who dress their little dogs in dresses and tutus etc. Very dodgy in my opinion (though I do have coats for my own big dogs to keep them warm/dry/cool).
Moosemama I hope you tell their owners that real ferrets only travel in plastic bags, not pink harnesses. [Grin]
The ferrets round here go for walks on little pink harnesses!
I prefer bigger dogs.
This is because the only bites I have had have been from effing JRT and smaller.
I saw a lad aged about 15 out with a lurcher-type the other day and a ventilated wooden box slung over his shoulder which I'm pretty sure would have had a ferret in it. Off to do a bit of rabbiting I think.
Last time I saw something similar, the ferrets were shockingly in (open) plastic bags rather than a proper box. I guess the notion of a "real dog" is as wide as the various odd things people want to get up to with their dogs.
I have to agree with Grimma. Where my family are from in Southern Ireland it's the farmers and other local men that have the terriers. Either JRTs or a distinct 'type' of Heinz 57 that have arisen from rather enthusiastic local roaming romeos!
All of them are really game and the other prolific local breed (Border Collies) give them a wide berth.
>terriers aren't really used for rodent control
no-one seems to have told various terriers I've met on farms that they are obsolete!
I'm in the countryside and apart from farms there's lots of other terriers - often as not belonging to big blokes or old men. Lots on country walks and up mountains. The difference between your JRT and a lab is that while the latter will carry a big stick the former may be seen carrying a ruddy great big stone as big as its head up the path... well 'ard
Well I have giant breed dogs, and also get stupid comments about them not being dogs but horses, bears, lions! Have always wondered what a proper dog is as small ones arent proper they are rats and big ones arent proper either? hmm
Apparently everyone knows someone with a bigger dog than mine (like i care, as if I own them for a size status and don't have a clue about dogs / breeds to not smell their bullshit). Labradors etc being bigger than a St. Bernard (must be a cross then) or the weight contest which makes me laugh because the dog they apparently explain should really go on a diet if true.
Also apparently my giant happily walking to heal, approaching another dog woth a wagging tail is highly vicious and they tell there small dog (snapping and snarling in this case) that its too big to play with and will eat it
We have a mini schnauzer and I've never had anyone say that to me, but then we're in the London commuter belt and there are lots of little dogs around here.
And DH (at 6'5) does look completely ridiculous walking a small fluffy dog so we're wide open to the comments should anyone choose to make them! Although I am going to steal your husband retort if anyone tries it
It must be a rural thing, I guess because you get more working dogs there and terriers aren't really used for rodent control as they were traditionally?
I don't care for dogs, but large ones gross me out.
Terrier, not a real dog? Clearly never seen a terrier working then.
Well ... obviously I know that now. Seems I have so much to learn about dogs.
We all judge, I think, to some extent, that's normal. But these sorts of comments are just rude!
moosemama Did you not know that this random person's friend's lurcher was the national standard against which all lurchers are measured? Pffff, call yourself a dog person!
Blimey, I always think of terriers as more of a proper dog than a lot of larger breeds.
If it helps, I have never measured my dog's height, but to give you some idea, I'm 5'7" and he comes up to my hip. This morning I was told by someone in the park that he can't be a 'proper lurcher' because he's too small. Apparently, her friend has a lurcher that's much bigger than Lurcherboy and that somehow means he possibly be a 'proper lurcher'.

About the Sharon Abrams Teen Parent School Program
The Sharon Abrams Teen Parent School Program at The Maine Children's Home is an alternative high school program for pregnant and parenting teens. Our school program has been in existence since 1974. Open to pregnant and parenting teens state-wide, it provides prenatal and parenting instruction along with academic and life skills courses. All students are registered as Waterville High School students and work toward earning a Waterville High School diploma.
The Sharon Abrams Teen Parent School Program is located in Lunder Hall at The Maine Children's Home Dorothy "Bibby" Alfond Campus. There are five certified teachers on location, and other teachers from Waterville High School come to teach specific courses. A full-time clinician is available to support students with individual counseling. On-campus childcare is also available, free of cost, to students while enrolled in our program.
Achieving financial and emotional independence is a tremendous feat in anyone's life. Early parenthood can make the journey more challenging but not hopeless. Our aim is to remove as many deterrents as possible and then to build on the strengths of each young parent. Our goal is to help teen parents understand the concept of positive parenting, to support and assist them as they learn to deal with troublesome issues, and to provide a high quality and relevant education so they can acquire the knowledge and skills to move forward in a healthy life style.
Education Options
- High school completion

From Microvias: For Low Cost, High Density Interconnects
2.5 Solder Resist Materials and Processes
IPC-T-50b defines a solder resist (mask) as a coating material used to mask or to protect selected areas of a printed circuit board (PCB) from the action of an etchant, solder, or plating. A somewhat more useful working definition for a solder resist is as follows: a coating that masks off a printed circuit board surface and prevents those areas from accepting any solder during reflow or wave soldering processing (see Fig. 2.25).
Figure 2.25: Major features of solder resist on a PCB.
The prime function of a solder resist is to restrict the molten solder pickup or flow in those areas of the PCB, holes, pads, and conductor lines that are not covered by the solder resist. PCB designers, however, often expect more functionality out of the solder resist than just a means to restrict the solder pickup. Table 2.26 lists the functions of a solder resist.
Reduce solder bridging and electrical shorts
Reduce the volume of solder pickup to obtain cost and weight savings
Reduce solder pot contamination (copper and gold)
Protect printed circuit board (PCB) circuitry from handling damage, i.e., dirt, finger prints, etc.
Provide an environmental barrier
Fill space between conductor lines and pads with material of known dielectric characteristics
Provide an electromigration barrier for dendritic growth
Provide an insulation or dielectric barrier between electrical components and conductor lines or via interconnections when components are mounted directly on top of the conductor...

Rebuilding the Twins: Bullpen
In this installment of "Rebuilding the Twins", we will take a look at the Twins bullpen. The bullpen was a very glaring weakness for the Twins last season. The lack of hard throwing arms frequently cost the Twins wins and the loss of Joe Nathan certainly doesn't help change that.

Upon discussion with Gayle, Book 2 will not even be a point of concern until at least October, if even that.
Time-wise, neither of us have the capacity to hash the entire thing piece-by-piece. Much as I would love to release the story in rapid succession, realistically, it does not work. That and what with my day job, I'm going to be kept much busier than now. I got lucky on the account of Book 1.
I also got in touch with the wonderful Jenna for some more artwork. This will be the website for the series, as far as I'm concerned, and I like the idea of having the related images up. That and prints. I'm kind of taking an example from Aeire (Queen of Wands and Punch an' Pie webcomics) as far as making select prints available for sale. It's a ways different for webcomics, but I'm sure you gather what I mean.
My coworker, also an author in her own right, had done a read-through of the book and to the best she can tell me, it's bearing no errors. This gives me a lot of hope, at least as far as my own editing is concerned, but if an impartial eye gives me an all-clear, that is a load off my shoulders. And if it does run clean…well, then I'm well within deadline, eh?
And that, really, is excellent.

A report released Monday says that California's new global warming law will increase unemployment in the Golden State.
The announcement was in stark contrast to continual claims by the Left and their media minions that proposed cap and trade legislation at the federal level will result in an explosion in green jobs.
As reported by the Los Angeles Times Wednesday, the nation's most populated state, which is the first to impose laws concerning carbon dioxide emissions, might see a net reduction in employment as a result:
The state's nonpartisan legislative analyst's office examined 2008 economic modeling by the California Air Resources Board and concluded that it "may overstate the number of jobs" attributable to future implementation of the 2006 climate law.
While acknowledging the uncertainty of such projections, the report said, "On balance, however, we believe that the aggregate net jobs impact in the near term is likely to be negative, even after recognizing that many of the . . . programs phase in over time."
The report comes at a politically charged moment, when polls show employment to be Americans' top concern. Signature gathering began last week on a November ballot initiative that would delay the law, known as AB 32, until unemployment drops to 5.5% for at least a year. California joblessness is over 12% today.
With U.S. unemployment near ten percent, and the economy consistently viewed as the nation's top priority in poll after poll, one would think this report would be quite newsworthy.
After all, with belief in Nobel Laureate Al Gore's favorite money-making myth plummeting, and Congress beginning to work on compromise cap and trade packages, the public should be informed that California's Legislative Analyst's Office believes its state's climate change legislation will result in job cuts.
Unfortunately, Google news and LexisNexis searches found that outside of California, American media have not shown much interest Monday's announcement.
The Associated Press ran a story about this Tuesday, but only on its State and Local Wire.
Reuters also did a piece on the matter Tuesday which ran in the U.K.
From what I can tell, outside of California, the only major media outlet to find this issue newsworthy was Investor's Business Daily.
I wonder why.

Not sure where your getting your information but so far you only have two thing right on everything written about the epoxy:
The 80 grit:-Right
More flexable-Right.
300mils to fill 36 grit? Try 1.2337 Mils it will work better.
I think you missed what I said I use 80 grit on steel when doing filler. 80-180 on alunimum.
NO WAY do you need 36 grit for filler to stick to metal. Take 36 grit to a 2003 Chrysler 300M hood and find out what happens
Since this is painting basic 101 did you know the average OEM paint job is 6-9 mils thick. Roughly the thickness of a paper business card. Most warrentied film thickness is 14 mils, which what PPG suggests as the max thickness for them to warrenty the paint. And you are putting on 150 mils of epoxy!!!!
I must have been brain dead
To BarryK and sevt_chevelle,
I went back and deleted almost all of my last post, I have no idea why I kept writing 150 and 300 mils.
My math was wrong (so I deleted it), but so is yours.
"300 mils to fill 36 grit, try 1.23 mils it will work better"?
1" of paper/36 grains per inch = .027" (27 mils) grain size
I deleted the 36 grit plastic filler tooth analogy.
You need to delete "take a 36 grit to some of them" from your post because it reads that you do use 36 grit for epoxy prep.
That's why I wrote "36 grit for epoxy, your kidding right?"
No you don't use 36 grit on a hood for anything, twice I wrote use 180 for bare steel epoxy prep on a hood.
your paper business card thickness equals all the paint layers thickness (10 mils) is correct, I measured about 10 different ones, all were very close to .010" thick.
Another way to visualize it is 3mil construction/drop cloth polyethylene sheeting, it's pretty accurate.
A 6 mil OEM finish is 2 layers of 3 mil poly, God that looks thin, amazing what those robots can do.
To help visualize .75mils plus of epoxy thickness, a kitchen trash can liner is .95mils thick. You need a magnifying glass to see the thickness.
Lets see, a stack of 30 (10mil) paper business cards is 300 mils of coating thickness, oh yeah, I'm OK, really I am, just ask my doctor.
RE: Grit,
Sorry my math is on the money,
your forgetting the grit is covered with a resin.
More than 95% of the .027" ( 27 mil) 36 grit grain would have to be imbedded in the resin to get to a .0012" ( 1.2 mil) scratch depth.
Figure it out, resin coated disc's grit are sunk in the resin unlike 6 inch DA paper.
Your talking 20,000 rpm vs 1000?
The percentage will also very by coarseness of grit such as 50 vs 16.
This don't make a hill of beans and is a waste of discussion but proves tech sheets tell you only what they want you to know and very few things in this business you can just make a blanket statement.
Barry, how deep of a scratch will this make
Measured the grit and paper thickness of a new Norton Red Resin 60 grit disk without the silicone backing. It measures .038" (38 mils) thick.
Filed the grit off to the resin. It measures .025" (25 mils) thick.
So the new 38 mil thick paper with grit minus the no grit left 25 mil paper = 13 mils of grit not imbedded in the resin right?
Hey, that means that 80% of the 60 grit .016" grit grain wasn't buried in the resin right?
How deep will new 60 grit paper cut with .013" (13mils) of exposed grit cut?
Wait a minute! Every time you get called you edit your post or change story.
We were talking about 36 grit.
Also where did you find red Norton grinding dics the blue is their big seller, stronger more coating.
The main players are Green-3m
Give it up this is useless and meaningless.
congratulations Barry
you got one thing right!
As the grit gets finer (ex: 36 grit and 80 grit), the grit is buried deeper in the resin, it does cut less deep grooves, the resin has to have more of the grit grain surface area to keep the grit on the paper,
pretty logical huh.
Sorry, rpms has very little to do with cut depth. It's the pressure applied while sanding that determines the cut depth
Never said it did!
Rpms require more resin to stay together, thats why da paper uses glue and striate and grinding disc use resin.
Grit makes scratches.
gee Barry
I didn't know it has to be a blue Norton disk to calculate the cut depth.
So blue Norton 36 grit disks have 95% of the grit buried in the resin to make a 1.2 mil deep scratch right.
Of course! I quit.
I just want to agree!
thank you Barry
for finally agreeing that your math was wrong for 36 grit scratch depth
my grit scratch math was wrong, I admitted it (and deleted it because NOTHING is worse than wrong information)
good luck to you
To sevt_chevelle, 36 grit for filler
I do know why the 36 grit came to mind for filler prep. I've got to use it (and probably a kiss with a grinder) to redo a repair that somebody did 3 years ago that didn't hold.
On early Mustang doors there is a very pronounced sharp scallop line on the top third of the door. It almost screams "hit me" in a parking lot.
On this door, a van door slammed into the scallop line and put almost a 3/8" deep crease in it (of course it's where you can't get to it from inside the door).
The repair failed because the door gets slammed shut/shocked the 80 grit (?) 1"x 1"x3/8" prepped plastic bond every day .
Plan "B" is a new $350 door shell plus assemble/fit/paint, because the inner bottoms are gone, so a skin is a waste.
Plan "C" cut it out and weld in a patch, good luck, it's a very convex and concave area and to get the line back straight ? And you can't get to the back to treat for rust, doors are always wet inside.
So 36 grit it, kiss it with a grinder (Mustang doors do have plenty of steel) and fill it.
I will try to reset the latch so the door jam bumpers cushion better if it will line up with the quarter.
Otherwise I use the grit that seems logical and best for the fill repair and the area I'm working on
My daily driver Ford Ranger has a good portion of the drivers door in filler. Its lasted since I bought the truck back in 2000.
I bought it wrecked, door had damage. Pulled it out to level as possible, removed paint with my 8in mud hog da sander with 80 grit and applied filler.
When the EVERCOAT rep stopped by my shop where I worked we had a nice chat about fillers and the prep. He said 80 grit on bare metal is just fine.
I know what a early mustang looks like I helped a good friend of mine restore his 65 fastback. Sorry but I have a VERY hard time swallowing that 1x1x3/8 spot of filler failed because the guy used 80 grit instead of 36.
If whoever did this to a door with rotted bottoms probably didnt have a clue in the beginning.

About Me
I'm an agency standard fashion model, absolutely love doing catwalk and am very confident. I've really enjoyed everything I've done so far so I would just like to get more opportunities to do shows and even catalogue and commercial modelling. I really work hard at things I enjoy so I would definately be professional and on time for any type of job.
-2nd place Top Model of Colour!!-
*Please note I do not do any glamour/nude work*
