What can I do with rice
I made a load of rice during my experiments with cooking the stuff. I have quite a bit of long grain white rice hanging about and I'm bored of eating it plain, fried with veggies and as it is with veggies. I'm especially bored with it in my lunches. I need to do something with it but I'm not sure what.
Please help by adding your rice recipes!
Rice pudding
Kheer (Indian rice pudding)
Chicken in Peanut Tomato Sauce (over rice)
*I've had this with crab and lamb instead of chicken too and it's delicious.
I soaked some in chicken stock and it's given it a nice subtle flavour.
I love Paella so I'll have a go with that one day and the Chicken in Peanut Tomato sauce.
Thanks Phoenix!
Dirty Rice :)
Use as a filling for stuffed bell peppers.. you can add in any veggies, beans, and/or meats you like with the rice.
I use it in my chicken burritos or as a base for my chosen meat for things like that (basically burrito without the tortilla). Add beans, chosen spices and toppings. I usually take to work dissembled, heat the filling and then put it in the tortilla.
Use instead of pasta in a soup.
add some spices to use it as a side. A little olive oil and some fresh herbs would be good (I saw a recipe for this with quinoa and thought it would be good with rice too).
Are you adding any sauces when you fry it with Veggies?
In addition to the above, I like to make a curry or chili and serve it over rice.
Bored of eating the rice alone try these recipes with the recipes

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I received a Wet and Reckless in 2001 and a DUI in 2009. Since the time a DUI stays on one's record increased from 7 to 10 years, both charges are now showing on my record and I am unable to apply for a restricted license until 1 year has passed. My mandatory 30 days of suspension has passed, I've enrolled in a DUI program, an SR-22 has been filed by my insurance company, and the $125 re-issue fee has been paid. I live over 25 miles away from the city that I work 5 days a week to support my family and there is no public transportation, no one to carpool with and my wife works earlier hours so she can't drive me. Mandatory Actions Unit has advised that there are no exceptions to receiving a restricted license until the 1 year suspension has passed... is this true or do I have options?Thank you everyone for the timely responses. One last questions, if I hired a lawyer prior to my trial, what are the chances that I could have gotten the 2001 wet and reckless thrown out? Thanks and happy thanksgiving.
You correctly state the law as it is now, however, recently the Legislature passed a change to the suspension on a second offense. The new law will allow people convicted of a second offense to receive a restricted license after 90 days of suspension when the driver installs an ignition interlock device and jumps through some other hoops.
Unfortunately, there are numerous unanswered questions including whether it will affect those who are currently suspended for second offenses, or only those suspended after the operative date. We also do not know if it will go into effect ONLY if the mandatory interlock device requirement goes into effect in July 2010. These remain uncertain, as of now, you should count of being suspended for the year, although you may want to check in with Mandatory Actions to see if the law change will affect you.Ask a similar question
As Mr. Mueller stated, you are not eligible for a restriction until the year has passed. Although there is pending legislation to change this law, the funding has not yet been approved. If it is approved, it will probably not be in place until July of 2010, which will not be helpful for you.Ask a similar question

Farmers mobilize in Brussels: "Reclaiming peasants' rights over our own seeds"
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 21 January 2014 01:34
Press Release - European Coordination Via Campesina
(Brussels, 20 January 2014) At the start of the year devoted to family farming, which is being called on by the UN to feed the world, peasants from all over Europe are demonstrating before the European Parliament on Monday January 20 2014. We have come to reclaim recognition of peasants' rights to select, preserve, use, exchange and sell our own seeds. We declare that our seeds are essential if we are to feed the world. Only with our seeds can we overcome the challenge of discontinuing the use of toxic pesticides, protection of the environment and the struggle of adapting to climate change. Only peasant family farming helps to cool the planet.
GMOs must be banned. Co-existence alongside them is not a viable option. Intellectual property rights on living organisms, which allow industry to lay claim to all the world's seeds, must also be stopped. We call on the European institutions to enshrine these peasants' rights in all regulations.
Andrea Ferrante , an Italian peasant, condemned "patents on plant genes that are contaminating peasant seeds and bringing them under the ownership of multinationals."
Hanny Van Geel, a Dutch peasant, hightighted that "it is only by preserving biodiversity through farmers' seeds that we can ensure good quality and healthy produce for consumers."
Guy Kastler, a French peasant, offered a reminder: "only farmers' seeds are suitable for use in every field without the use of chemicals, precisely because they have been selected and multiplied in these fields."
Unai Aranguren, a Basque peasant, added that "we cannot achieve food sovereignty without peasants' own seeds".
Elizabth Mpofu, a peasant from Zimbabwe and spokesperson for Via Campesina International, closed the demonstration with these words "African farmers still have all the seeds gathered and selected by hundreds of generations before them . They are committed to growing and preserving these seeds and to protecting them from GMOs and patents in order to pass on this invaluable heritage to future generations, who will need it to feed themselves. The current legislation does not guarantee peasants' rights and for this reason European laws should not infringe on the rights of peasants around the world".

Technical Data Sheets
Get the latest tips, trends and special offers.
Don't despair. Hirshfield's can help.
Some may call it paint paralysis frozen in fear of using paint color inappropriately. But we do make color choices every day often with unrecognized confidence. We may be able to dress ourselves, our kids and our husbands, but an entire wall of paint color can be irrationally intimidating. It seems so easy to get it all wrong.
Paint may be the least expensive decorating product you can purchase to dramatically change the look of your home. But for many it comes with a high price: color anxiety.
If you are losing your way in the quest for color; agonizing over countless paint chips that are looking all the same; feeling overwhelmed at the amount of time spent on indecisiveness: then you'd be wise to enlist the help of a Hirshfield's color stylist.
Customer testimonials speak for the service
Hi Kathy,
Thought you might be interested in a painting update from the **surname redacted** household.
I finally got around to painting our family room over the weekend, and as you promised, the Ginger Snap looks incredible in there! So incredible in fact, that when my thirteen year old son (who as you can imagine doesn't care much about home furnishings) saw it he said it looks like it came out of a magazine. It's truly amazing the way doing a dramatic shade can transform the whole vibe of the house! Additionally, the way that all of the newly painted rooms flow from one to another just proves what a valuable service you've provided. (And don't worry, I've been telling all my friends about it.)
So far I've gotten the kitchen, dining and family rooms taken care of as per your plan, and hope to get the living room wrapped up by the end of next week. Depending on my stamina level, I may even tackle the stairs and upper bathroom before school gets out, or (more likely) may end up waiting for a few boring days in the summer.
Thank you so much for all your help and patience--you are so good at this!!!
Thanks again,
The above letter was sent to one of Hirshfield's color stylists and used with permission.
To whom this may concern:
We are in the process of finishing off the lower level of our rambler style home. I was very confused about selecting colors of paint for the walls, wanting it to be cohesive and tasteful. I had such a wonderful experience working with one of your color consultants, Belinda Dietrich, at your Lakeville, MN location, I just had to write to let you know.
She came out to my house with large paint samples in hand and by the time she had finished, all colors were selected. I was pleased with the choices. When the walls finally were painted, we were overjoyed that it was exactly how we wanted it to look.
Belinda was not only very kind and professional, but she really listened to my thoughts, concerns and put together a color palette that I was striving to achieve. She made suggestions to paint accent walls that I would not have thought of and having painted them, we are so PLEASED at the end result. She also recommended some painting supplies that helped my husband with edging.
So, we think Belinda is the BEST and Hirshfield's is our store of choice for decorating and paint ideas and products.
Finding your color story
Hirshfield's color stylists know paint color: all its potential and its limitations. In a little over an hour, we'll visit you in your home, get an overview of your spaces, your lifestyle and the personality you wish to convey.
Out of our discussions we'll establish a paint strategy that will tie everything together by:
• enhancing your home's decor through the use of well-chosen paint color;

Color with Confidence

Along with your color plan you'll get a $20 Gift Card that you can use on your next visit to any Hirshfield's Decorating Center.
The cost for all this is just $150. Schedule an appointment with a Hirshfield's color stylist at any Hirshfield's store today, schedule online or call 612 377 3910.
Exterior Color Calls
Choosing exterior colors can be even more daunting for the homeowner. The process is similar to interior consultations, but the discussion begins outside.

ISTANBUL (AP) - The United States improved its chances of reaching the knockout stage of the Under-20 World Cup, tying France 1-1 Monday on an 85th-minute goal by substitute Daniel Cuevas.
With France and Spain having won their openers, the U.S. needs a victory in its final match against Ghana to advance outright. But it could still advance as one of the four best third-place teams.
``Our team is very united and we are always together and pushing forward,'' Cuevas said. ``If things don't go our way, we keep trying and keep trying until they do. Luckily we got the tie.''
Spain beat Ghana 1-0 in a lackluster match on Monday to secure a spot in the next round. In the other early game in Group B, Nigeria defeated Cuba 3-0, with Aminu Umar scoring twice in four minutes.
France appeared set to beat the Americans and advance after Yaya Sanogo scored his second goal of the tournament. His penalty in the 48th minute came after Dimitri Foulquier was sideswiped by America's Javan Torre in the penalty area.
``I don't think we had a great control of the game tonight,'' France coach Pierre Mankowski said. ``It feels a bit strange because the U.S. team was hardly dangerous. But they had situations they should have never had. We conceded a penalty and a free kick, which led to their goal.''
The U.S., which lost its opening match to Spain, had few chances and missed those it did have - the worst when Luis Gil's penalty was easily saved in the 65th. But the Americans grew more confident toward the end and it paid off when Cuevas pounced on a loose ball in the penalty area.
U.S. coach Tab Ramos was a ``little disappointed'' with the sloppy play early on, but happy to come away with a draw.
``In a game like today we should have gotten all three points,'' he said. ``At the end of the day, it was great courage, effort by our team.''

More crime from south florida..lol.
Sounds like the Brinks guards either had good SA or were lucky, or the BG were pretty bad shot. Either way good for them, they get to go home.
"YOU WOULD THINK WE WOULD HAVE MORE POLICE PRESENCE." Well LEO's can't be everywhere so YOU should be able to protect yourself.
I'm an Armored Car ATM Tech. This is what I do all day.
Were these armed Brinks "guards" (like the truck drivers) or just someone else? If the former, it definitely isn't a good sign when the BGs start robbing clearly armed people.
Here is this other news report:
This incident happened over 3 weeks ago. One of the would be robbers was captured by a heavily armed Miami FBI SWAT team two days after the attempted robbery. The suspect's name is Gerard Stevens Thomas. Here is his booking photo down below.
He really does not look like he is stupid in this photo:
They weren't deterred by the sight of the guard's guns...but they were certainly deterred by the bullets whizzing by!

Calendar Displays A Full Year Of Uninterrupted Deadlines [Pics]
A 6-foot long display of a year looks like a masterpiece of modernism.
Instead of partitioning our days and weeks on a 12-month, Gregorian calendar, we can now spread out our entire year on a linear, uninterrupted timeline. The Linear Calendar, designed by Jeff Schwarting, looks and feels like a blank canvas that lets users design their own unique schedules. He wanted to create something that conforms to our natural perception of time, and lets people visual time in a more tangible way.
The calendar measures roughly 6'6" x 8", and is printed on durable, gloss poster-stock with a matte finish. Shaded sections on the calendar represent weekends, and the months are horizontally printed in bold. The best part about this calendar is that it can be turned either vertically or horizontally, while preserving its easy-to-manipulate layout. Sticky notes and other pin-it methods can be used to mark up dates.
For $35 you can purchase a roll and manage your time on a more aesthetically pleasing system. The Linear Calendar is currently featured on Kickstarter.

The Bee Book
Streit's father was a beekeeper and it was in early childhood that Jakob developed a passion for the honeybee. This exquisite reader factually and scientifically allows one to enter into the magic and mysterious world of the bees.
The Bee Book offers a beautiful transition from the Animal and Human Being lesson block of Grade 4 to the Botany lesson block of Grade 5 - and would be an appropriate reader for those grade level.
Little Bee Sunbeam
This story reader for younger children relates the adventures of a honeybee named Little Bee Sunbeam. The little bee is in a search for a particularly good nectar to make honey when it suddenly becomes very cold. Honeybees cannot fly when the temperature drops so abruptly and our little bee must spend the night alone in the forest where an exciting adventure unfolds.
I would recommend it for Grade 5 as a reader based on the level of vocabulary used - it also fits in beautlifully with the Botany lesson block. For grades 3 and up, it can be used as a story to be read by an adult.
Bees and Honey - From Flower to Jar
From Flower to Jar
Michael Weiler
$17.95Add a review
We all know that bees make honey. They mystery for most of us is what happens between the time when those bees are buzzing around our garden and when we stick our knife in the jar. Based on careful observation and years of experience, Michael Weiler reveals the secret life of bees. He looks at all aspects of a bee's life and work and vividly describes their remarkable world.
Did you know, for example, that it takes approximately 12,000 bee hours to produce a single jar of honey? If bees earned minimum wages, one jar would cost almost $100,000 (plus retail markup).
Here is a fascinating book for anyone interested in the intricacies of nature and the life of these fascinating insects.
Rudolf Steiner
With an Afterword on the Art of Joseph Benys
$25.00Add a review
In 1923 Steiner predicted the dire state of the honeybee today. He said then that in fifty to eighty years we would see the consequences of mechanizing the forces that had previously operated organically in the beehive, such as the practice of artificially breeding queen bees. The fact that over sixty percent of the American honeybee population has died during the past ten years and that this same phenomena is occurring around the world should urge our attention to the importance of the issues discussed in these lectures.
Rudolf Steiner began this series of lectures on bees in response to a question from an audience of construction workers. From physical depictions of the daily activities of bees to the loftiest esoteric insights, the lectures describe the unconscious wisdom contained in the beehive and its connection to our experience of health, culture, and the cosmos. They are essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the true nature of the honeybee, as well as those who wish to heal the contemporary crisis of the beehive.
Animals in Translation
Using the Mysteries of Autism to Decode Animal Behavior
Temple Grandin and Catherine Johnson
$15.00Add a review
I've read and heard many reviews of this remarkable new book by Temple Grandin. Depending on the reviewer's focus, Animals in Translation has been seen as a groundbreaking revelation of animal behavior and awareness and/or an inspiring revelation of the world seen from within autism. It is both these things, but in my opinion it is also something else - I experienced it as one deep and brilliant insight after another into human nature itself, not just autistic human nature, but all human nature.
Grandin's insight into animals is so uncluttered and straightforward that she penetrates into the recesses of the human heart as well. The descriptions she gives of the sources of many animal behaviors apply unswervingly as well to the things hidden in the depths of the human soul that well up as surprising, irrational or inconsistent reactions.
If you work with children, this book has more to offer you than I can describe in the space of one review. I can, however, give you an example which I think goes to the heart of how this book can be used on behalf of other people, especially young people. On page 145, Temple begins a discussion of Fear-Driven Aggression. She has previously described Assertive Aggression and is now contrasting it with aggression resulting from fear:
Fear-driven aggression causes so much violence and destruction in the animal and human worlds that I've often asked myself, What is rage for?
Why do we have rage circuits at all?
When you look at animals living in the wild, the answer is simple. Rage is about survival, at the most basic brute level. Rage is the emotion that drives the lion being gored to death by the buffalo to fight back; rage drives a zebra being caught by a lion to make one last-ditch effort to escape. I once saw a videotape of a domestic beef cow kicking the living daylights out of an attacking lion. It was some of the hardest kicking I have ever seen. Rage is the ultimate defense all animals draw upon when their lives are in mortal danger.
When it comes to human safety in the presence of animals, fear cuts two ways. Fear can inhibit an animal or a person from attacking, and very often does. Among humans, the most vicious murderers are people who have abnormally low fear. Fear protects you when you're under attack, and keeps you from becoming an attacker yourself.
But fear can also cause a terrified animal to attack, where a less-fearful animal wouldn't. A cornered animal can be extremely aggressive; that's where we get the saying about not getting someone's "back up against the wall." An animal with his back up against a wall is in fear for its life and will feel he has no choice but to attack.
On average, prey species animals like horses and cattle show more fear-based aggression than predatory animals such as dogs. That shouldn't be a surprise, since prey animals spend a lot more time being scared.
I categorize maternal aggression differently from some researchers; I put it in the fear department. I think maternal aggression is fear-driven at heart because over the years I've observed that the high-strung nervous animals will always fight more vigorously to protect her young than will a laid-back, calm animal like a Holstein dairy cow. Many a rancher has told me that the most hotheaded, nervous cow in the herd is the one who is most protective of her calf.
Any mother, nervous or calm, will fight to protect her baby. That's why on farms the human parents always warn their children to stay away from mama animals. But the fact that it's always the most nervous, fearful mother who shows the most maternal aggression makes me think that maternal aggression is driven by fear, even when the animal is calm by nature. When mother animals think their babies are in danger, they feel fear, and their fear leads them to attack. That's my conclusion.
This brings me to the fundamental question you have to ask yourself any time you're trying to solve a problem with aggression: is the aggression coming from fear or dominance? That's important, because punishment will make a fearful animal worse, whereas punishment may be necessary to curb assertive aggression.

I think I'll let Jane Goodall (whom I have loved and admired since childhood) tell you about this book:
This is not only an important book, it is marvelous! If animals could read they would be filled with joy and gratitude to the authors - as I am. It is scholarly, vivid, and compelling. Please read it.
This is a truly great book - I also hope you will read it.
Dogs Never Lie About Love
Reflections on the Emotional World of Dogs
Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson

$9.00Add a review
** Originally $14.99 **
Myth, literature, scientific studies, personal stories, observation and just plain LOVE guide the reader through the surprising depth of canine emotional complexity, revealing what dog lovers have always known, that our 'best friends' have a wonderful and rich inner landscape. The author's own three dogs are the centerpieces of the book and lead the way in his exploration of a wide range of subjects - from emotions like gratitude, compassion, loneliness, and disappointment to speculating what dogs dream of and how their powerful sense of smell shapes their perception of reality. As he sweeps aside old prejudices about animal behavior, Masson reaches into a rich universe of dog feeling to find its essential core: love. A great, soul-warming journey.

$14.95Add a review
It's hard to know what to say about a book whose every passage evokes tears of both joy and grief. Honey-Bun is as much a Song of Songs to the love that passes between human and animal as it is a Requiem for a lost friend. Anne Stockton has not written just another beautifully written story about a beloved pet (and I love such stories); she has created a work of art - poetic prose, luminous pastel paintings, and a story both unique and universal. This is a very special book - the kind that is treasured and cherished as it is passed among family and friends.

Sterling North
$6.99Add a review
Our family read Rascal many times over the course of our nightly family story time - it never lost its ability to captivate, charm and delight. Rascal is truly one of the best animal stories every written - and even better because it is a true story, told by an author who lived every wonderful minute of it.
Rascal is a baby raccoon, orphaned in the woods when the boy Sterling brings him home. Soon, Rascal is ready to join Sterling at swimming, fishing, and camping. He's also ready to initiate some of the most hilarious adventures of his own. The raccoon's unique approach to life fits right in with the home Sterling and his father share - a home where skunks, woodchucks, a crow named Poe and an 18-foot, half-finished canoe are resident in the living room!
Wonderful reading for everyone - as a read-to for ages 7 and up; read on their own from age 12.
The Dog Who Wouldn't Be
Farley Mowat
$6.99Add a review
In this practically perfect story, Farley Mowat recounts his boyhood days on the Canadian prairie as they revolved around Mutt, a dog of uncertain pedigree and absolutely certain eccentricity. Mutt climbed trees and ladders, rode in an open car wearing goggles, and hunted with a skill approaching genius. A thoroughly marvelous dog portrayed in a thoroughly wonderful story. For ages 10 and up at family reading time, for teens on their own and for any adult in need of a refreshing break.
Never Cry Wolf
Farley Mowat
$12.99Add a review
Never Cry Wolf was my first encounter with Farley Mowat as a naturalist and gifted writer. I have never forgotten it. There is more heart, clear observation, and truth in this book than in dozens of reports on the state of the environment. It is an unflinchingly true story.
Sometime in the early 1960s, the Canadian government's Wildlife Service assigned Farley Mowat to investigate reports that hordes of bloodthirsty wolves were slaughtering the arctic caribou. Mowat was dropped alone onto the frozen tundra, where he began his mission to live among the howling wolf packs and study their ways. Contact with his quarry comes quickly; and Mowat discovers not a den of marauding killers, but a courageous family of skillful providers and devoted protectors of their young. As Mowat comes closer to the wolf world, he comes to fear not the savagery of the wolves, but that of the bounty hunters and government exterminators who seem bent upon erasing the noble wolf community from the Arctic. Mowat now lives in Port Hope - an ideal name for his dwelling place on Earth. Outstanding for teens and adults.

Does better project management really increase the chances an IT project will succeed? Virginia intends to prove that, done right, it does.
In 2000, several jurisdictions, including Scottsdale, Ariz., Kansas City and Michigan, began rolling out their own project management training programs (see The Ascendancy of the Project Manager by Tod Newcombe, November 2000). These efforts came partly in response to surveys showing that an average of six out of 10 IT projects were over budget, behind schedule or failed altogether.
Those jurisdictions soon found out project management programs weren't as simple as they anticipated. Setup proved to be expensive and time-intensive, requiring jurisdictions to impose a disciplined methodology on project preplanning, planning, design and development. These programs also needed to be led by an experienced -- and expensive -- project manager. As a result, some project management initiatives ran over budget and failed to accomplish their objectives.
Virginia officials were convinced better project management could increase IT project success. But taking a lesson from the struggles of other jurisdictions, the commonwealth decided to take a different approach.
A New Approach
In 2000, then-Secretary of Technology Donald Upson brought in a resident consultant for technology. Not yet ready to commit to a full-time project manager, Upson believed a consultant could give the state some insight into the area and do so more affordably. Twyla Garrett was brought on to provide those services. A veteran of several major IT projects for the federal government, Garrett had launched her own project management consultancy earlier that year.
Garrett was placed in the Virginia Department of Public Safety, which had $800 million in IT initiatives in the works. She quickly discovered the agency had no project management methodology.
"They didn't have any foundation in project management, and they hadn't taken on anything large scale before," said Garrett. "Large scale to them was $5 million, and they were about to embark on a $100 million project. I wanted to develop a project-management framework and methodology they could implement and a risk-management process they could utilize."
Garrett began by addressing the department's CIOs. The department consists of 11 agencies, each with its own CIO. Before Garrett came aboard, these officials had never formally worked together; some had never even met each other. Garrett immediately launched a CIO Steering Committee, where she discovered the CIOs weren't speaking the same language when it came to project management.
"The first thing we did was implement a glossary of common terms," she said. "We then sat everyone down and told them that in the next year we'd like to have everyone talking the same language."
Garrett recommended creating a project management academy to help begin the process and to implement common project-management methodologies. "Up to that point, we hadn't put forth a lot of standards. We had great goals, but agencies didn't have a chance to meet those goals because they didn't have the proper tools," she said. "They had nothing to say, 'I can obtain that goal because I know what it takes to get there.' We needed to give people the tools ? if they have the tools, then you can hold them accountable and judge whether they have passed or failed."
Although the idea was appealing, Virginia was in the midst of a budget crisis, and some of the first programs cut involved training and technology. But Garrett was determined. "I asked them if I thought of something creative and cost effective if they would let me do it. They agreed, so it was then up to me to figure out how."
Most other jurisdictions relied on private companies to supply project management training, often at a cost of $600 to $1,000 per student per course. Garrett knew that simply wouldn't fly in Virginia, so her solution was to secure

Dina Lohan: Mother of the Year
Don't adjust your computer screens, as the headline is indeed accurate. Apparently somewhere in the midst of exploiting her daughters while desperately trying to live vicariously through them, Dina Lohan managed to become the Mother of the Year.
She was spotted at Carlyle on The Green in Bethpage State Park in Long Island New York last night accepting the "Long Island Top Mom" award at the Mingling Mom's "Mom's Night Out" event.
When asked about her supposed nights out clubbing with her well-known troubled daughter Lindsay, Dina replied, "I've never partied with my daughter in my life," explaining that her presence at the clubs was for managerial purposes.
And when asked what advice she had for LiLo, Mommy Lohan said, "Just to be honest and to stay morally correct. And listen to your mother."

Enjoy the pictures of Dina out to accept her Mother of the Year award (May 6).

" Brand: Elemis FreshSkin / Contents: 100ml / Type: Face Wash / Subcategory: Exfoliator / What it does: Cleanses, Refreshes, Exfoliates / Product line: Elemis FreshSkin "
* Prices may differ from that shown
Elemis Skin Glow Exfoliating Face Wash is a product I received as a gift in a goody bag and something I had never used before. The very first thing that caught my attention was the amazingly bright Fuschia Pink colour of the packaging which is lovely, bright and stunning.
What they say - "With deep pore cleansing action, this exfoliating facial wash contains cherry powder and jojoba beads to gently polish and help refine skin texture. Enriched with mandarin and aniseed to soften and condition, leaving skin clear, brightened and more radiant". So already I am looking forward to trying this on my skin and seeing if my skin does infact look as wonderful as this product states it will.
Aside from the amazing packing and the list of ingredients mentioned, it is hardly surprising that this product is also wonderfully scented. For me the scent that accompanies this product is zesty and most definitely orangey. The gel itself is an orangey colour which perfectly matches the scent and it is also a fairly thick texture so you don't need to use more than a 10p sized blob to use effectively on the whole of your face. When it comes to using this product all you need to do is massage it into and onto wet skin using what is referred to as gentle but fast circulation motions all over face. As you massage this product onto your face that orangey scent really comes to life. The jobjoba beads which are the exfoliator are finely ground but as you massage your skin you can feel them working away to remove dead and dry skin cells. Once you have finished, simply use a damp cloth to remove any excess gel and all the debris it has removed and then pat (don't rub) your skin dry.
Alongside the Jobjoba Beads there is a list of ingredients, all of which do really good things for the skin. Starting with Aniseed which helps to clear and brighten your complexion. Sweet Almond Oil which is a favourite ingredient of mine, is a great moisturiser which not only helps to protect the surface of the skin, but it is also good for nourishing the skin leaving it feeling soft, smooth and moisturised. The Cherry Powder which I briefly mentioned helps to refine your skins texture and works with the jobjoba beads to remove dirt, debris, dead and dry skin cells. Finally there is mandarin, the ingredient for me which gives that amazing fruity scent to this product and it helps to increase circulation.
After using this product on my skin I was surprised at how much brighter it look and how soft it felt, I have quite a good skin care regime but I am always surprised at how much good my skin is after a good exfoliation session which I try to do at least once a week to give extra attention to my nose, chin and forehead. As I have combination skin which leans towards the oily side, I always try to look for and use a product which isn't going to cause a reaction and the only reaction this product gave was lovely soft bright skin.
Elemis Freshskin is now available in Superdrug where a 100ml tube will cost £11.99 and personally I think that is a real bargain. My tube is a 30ml tube and since I got it back in July I have been using it once a week and am yet to use even a third of the tube, so it will definitely last a long time.
Ingredients: Aniseed, Bitter Cherry, Glycerine, Jojoba Beads, Mandarin, Sweet Almond Oil / With a deep pore cleansing action, this exfoliating facial wash contains cherry powder and jojoba beads to gently polish and help refine skin texture / Enriched with mandarin and aniseed to soften and condition, leaving skin clean, brighter and more radiant / Skin Type: Teens to 20s / A good daily scrub helps lift the layer of grime that your skin picks up when you are out and about / Luckily, skin glows when it is scrubbed and stimulated so you'll see the squeaky clean rosy face results in the mirror / How to use:Massage into wet skin using gentle but fast circulation motions all over face and then rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat skin dry with a face towel / Key

Hi guys,The new template that i work on got the 2 rejection. After another day working to fix the issues i come up with the images bellow:
- http://postimage.org/image/33ufellus/
- http://postimage.org/image/26gnuef2c/
- http://postimage.org/image/26gphxrk4/
- http://postimage.org/image/26gr5h41w/
The template has 2 more pages and 4 more color variations but they are not ready yet. My reviewer was Ivor and the message that i got was this:
1. There's still lots of inconsistent spacing/padding issues throughout the design. I'd like you to go over it with a fine toothed comb and weed out these basic design issues.
2. Overall template's typography needs additional refinements and improvements before it will be ready for Theme Forest. The template will need also improvements in visual hierarchy primarily using typographic elements such as headings.
What i wannt is a fresh pair of eyes ( if u have the time ) to take a look at this images and land me a feedback. Maybe i'm missing something and don't wanna get another rejection .
Thank you for taking the time to read this
Guys, i will realy love some feedback, please. This is so bad that nobody wanna comment?
Hi 4GraFx,
I like your theme. I think your theme is heading in the right direction and you're off to a good start. Its just small details that need to be explored.
In terms of spacing and margins, if you look between the edge of the page and the text (say left hand side by the Recent work heading) the space is very tight, whereas the spacing between projects is very loose (about 3 times that, but i havent measured)
Also under you latest posts the spacing between the body copy and the HR type rule is also very tight. Don't be scared of the white space, give the copy room to breathe.
Then with regards to the type, there are two things that I picked up.
1) The Fast Clean and Modern is in one font (serif), and used once, and the logo-type is in another, with the site description also in a serif font. These dont have any continuance through the theme, so I would either use them more throughout the other titles to give consistency, or I would have these changed so there is more flow.
2) Many of your headings are the same size, and while this works with consistency it does not really lend itself to creating a visual hierarchy to guide the user through what is important in the site.
Thats what I can pick up when I look at the template with the reviewers comments in mind. I hope this helps.
I dont think your far from being accepted, just one or two small edits.
Good Luck with sales.
Also (and this might be my monitor) just check the noise background, as this is quite strong, but I think that is just my screen…
I quite like it and I think this isn't long from being accepted. The upper part of the design is great. However, I think there are some points that need improvement:
Visual Hierarchy – For one, the headers on the sidebar are too big. The links on the bottom of the header image look too big for me also.
HR in the bottom of the small image gallery look like they should be stretched to the right
Font consistency – the footer copyright and menu seem like they have a different font as the rest, I'd make them the same but smaller. The pipes that separate the footer menu don't look nice also.
Color consistency – I like the orange on the headings, but maybe this might confuse some users since this is the same orange used in your links. I assume that the orange "Brand" in "Brand Design" isn't a link. I dunno if dropping the orange part will have a huge impact on the current design
The "read more" buttons on your 3 main headings look a bit off somehow. Why is the middle one gray?
One last thing, I think sticking with one design element may go a long way. For example, take the arrow on the menu just below the header image. What if you just use that kind of arrow for all your other arrows and links. Maybe just make the "read more" buttons into links, then put the same arrow in those. Maybe put that same arrow in the "see more projects" and "visit blog" links.
Just my 6 cents
Thank you pixelBaste and bfintal for such a detailed feedback . Already done some of the things that you mentioned and like i was suspecting i was missing some things.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 3/7/2014 (1086 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The list of graduating students from Neelin high school going on to continue their athletic careers at post-secondary institutions just keeps on growing with Courtney Matienzo joining the bumper crop.
The 18-year-old Brandonite is heading south of the border to play softball with the Mayville State University Comets. Although she played basketball, badminton and softball with the Spartans, Matienzo decided she wanted to stay on the diamond and it didn't take long for her to fall in love with the campus in Mayville, N.D.
"Right when I got there, it was exactly like Neelin, same atmosphere and small," she said. "The coach was really nice and everyone was kind of the same."
Mayville State is a school with about 1,000 students and has a softball team that struggled last season. The Comets went 2-12 in the NAIA's North Star conference and 4-24 overall under first-year head coach Ashley VandeVeen, who is Canadian.
Matienzo, however, was impressed with VandeVeen and is looking forward to playing under a different coach. That's why the 5-foot-5 third baseman, who has been with the Westman Magic since playing under-12 ball, joined the Manitoba Angels this summer, and she's looking for more advice in the college ranks next season as well.
"Pretty much the experience of being away from home, playing at the university level of sports and playing for different coaches since I've had the same for years," she said about why she's looking forward to going to Mayville State. "She's a hard coach like (Neelin basketball coach Don) Thomson. Thomson has taught me and if I'm doing something wrong he'll address it to me and I won't get emotional about it. I think she'll be the same kind of coach he is and it will help me be tough."
Matienzo will study applied psychology as a backup plan, but she hopes to join the RCMP in the future.
Matienzo and Jael Unger, a setter who recently committed to join the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference's Keyano College Huskies women's volleyball team, join a long list of Spartans heading off to university in the fall to join sports teams, with seven others coming from the school's varsity girls' volleyball team.
Spartans who have committed to play CIS women's volleyball next season include libero Jamie Campbell (Brandon Bobcats), setter Amy Gordon (Mount Royal Cougars), middle Alison Quiring (Trinity Western Spartans), outside hitter Kristine Ward (Regina Cougars), outside hitter Tori Studler (Manitoba Bisons) and left side Emma Ciprick (Dalhousie Tigers), with Paige Thomson (Victoria Vikes) opting to play basketball.
Riley Peyachew has also committed to join the Regina Cougars' track and field team, while Quinton Hunter has joined the Brandon Bobcats men's basketball team.

FORT WAYNE, Ind.—The Third Annual Black Barbershop Health Outreach Program takes place this Saturday, April 13, in ten Fort Wayne barbershops. The program began as a grassroots effort to bring health screenings and information to African American men in a place where they feel comfortable—their local barbershops.
This year, Indiana University–Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW) community/public health nursing students will be conducting free blood pressure, blood glucose, and cholesterol screenings and offering free information on prostate health at five of the participating barbershops. The screenings will take place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Organizers will hold a news conference 2 p.m. Saturday afternoon at the Unique Touch Barbershop at 3416 Paulding Road, where Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry is scheduled to issue a proclamation.

text: County officials encourage disaster preparedness By Mackenzie Mays September 7, 2012 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- What will you do when the lights go out? Kanawha and Putnam County officials are teaming up to make sure you have a plan. "The June storms were the first time in modern history that we lost the ability to tell the public anything. Other than one or two radio stations statewide, people were in the dark," said Kanawha County Commission President Kent Carper. "We have to have a plan and be willing to throw that plan out when things change beyond anything we've experienced before." The Kanawha Putnam Emergency Planning Committee met with local government official, emergency response teams, health officials and other organizations Friday afternoon at the Kanawha County Ambulance Authority to discuss their plan of action for National Preparedness Month. If every household can create a supply kit to last them 72 hours, emergency responders will be able to help those who need it the most and know that families are safe, said Kanawha County Fire Coordinator and Deputy Emergency Manager C.W. Sigman. Families should prepare emergency kits with non-perishable food, gallons of water for each person, medication, cash, pet supplies and first-aid essentials."During the derecho, many Kanawha County residents did a great job and knew how to take care of themselves. But we have people who are a little less resilient and need help, like our large elderly population," Sigman said. People with disabilities and medical conditions should keep an extra three days worth of medication on hand and spare batteries for assistance equipment such as oxygen tanks, said Eric Tissenbaum of the Appalachian Center for Independent Living. "We want to make sure everyone is prepared, but people with disabilities who depend on certain services to survive need to be able to adapt and take care of their needs during emergency situations," he said. A Sustainable Families Preparedness Fair will be held Sept. 15 in the Habitat for Humanity's Homeowner Education & Community Center. The fair will feature exhibits about water storage methods, food storage and canning, alternative cooking lessons and home gardening. The free event will also provide emergency kits to families and offer hands-on lessons for fire extinguisher and smoke alarm safety. "We always spread awareness about safety, but after the derecho this year, we decided to join forces for one campaign and put all of our resources together," said KPEPC Administrator Larry Zuspan. The fair is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and admission is free. The center is located on 815 Court St. in Charleston. An entrance is also available through the Habitat ReStore.

This Week in Viral Videos: An Artsy Marriage Proposal, 84-Egg Sandwich and More
The last seven days was a lively week for viral videos. From creative (and colorful) marriage proposals to Bradley Cooper's impressive and surprisingly fluent French interview, this week's virals had something for everyone.
We've picked our 10 favorites from the week, which you can check out below.
It still cracks me up how instead of calling the movie "Hangover 2″ in france, they call it "A Very Bad Trip 2." Classic.
Ok, where were we.

Anyone use picklex20?
Found this product at www.pickelx20.com.
Looks like the perfect solution for a hobbyist. Would allow me to clean and strip a small area, treat it, and leave it for months while I finsh the rest of the car.
Personally I find it a big hassle to have to stop and mix paint (in the correct amount) to spray a 2 ft by 3 ft area, then clean up the gun, every time I get a chance to work on the body. With repairs, distractions, other obligations, it may take over 6 months just to strip the body.
This solution is so perfect it scares me. Have any of you had actual experience with this stuff?
I have been using it extensively over the last 2 years.
All my parts kept out of the weather and I get very humid at the Jersey shore.
I needed to do significant metal work to fenders and such and this stuff clearly protects. I have also been glass beading stuff over the winter and using the P 20 to protect the metal until warmth comes back and painting is possible.
What I have found, contrary to what some might tell you. Some parts that I did not spend enough time getting rust out of the bottom of some small pits did have rust pop back through after pickelx. This confirmed my thought that the P20 is not able to convert through thicker rust. So if you have pits you need to be sure the bottom of the pit is not dark after blasting.
Before painting you will want to scuff the surface. If you get a white area after drying you can use some more p20 to wet it and then dry it well with a rag.
It is very easy to work with and does not need to be rinsed off. I have also found some powercoaters are using it before coating.
P x 20
Thanks for the insight. Looks like this will work on most of the car, light surface rust, but the hood is something else. Nearly unobtainable 53 Stude coupe hood, and the one I found is deeply pitted all over. Is blasting the only way to get it all out?
old guy,
I wouldn't risk warping that hood by trying to sandblast every last bit of rust out...(you don't need to!)
because rust can't grow without a electrical charge and moisture and oxygen....
you basically can't eliminate the electrical charge....the car body is used for a grounds path back to the batt and just static in the air is enough to cause rust....
when it is time to paint...
the 2 part epoxy is a 99.99% effective barrier to H2O and O2 so what ever rust is still in the pit's can't and won't grow...
for up to 3 months in FL humidity I've had good luck with Duplicolor and Mar-Hyde rattle can "self etching primer"....it does "help" to convert the micro rust in the pits because it does contain a bit of acid and it's easy to sand off before paint and it's compatible with fillers and epoxy if you leave a bit....and it's a light green color so it's a "guide" coat to find imperfections
I haven't used the picklex but based on "Lost's" info...sounds like the amount of protection is similar to maybe a bit(?) better with "self etching primer"
stopping rust is the same as how to stop a fire....remove any one of the three requirements (spark/air/fuel) and it's gone...the epoxy removes two of the three requirements for rust...and todays 2 part urethane's by themselves are darn good H2O and O2 barriers
ps: I only use true rust convertors as a very last possible resort...the converted "flakes" are not bonded well to the steel at all
You should try the "search" function here. It will give you more information on that subject ("rust convertors")than you can read in a day.
I can tell you that I WILL NOT paint over anything that has been treated with one of those products again. I have seen enough paint flaking off from that stuff for a lifetime.
Epoxy is the only product that will seal those panels to prevent rust. Using a "2K primer" or "Etch primer" will not seal it, as they will absorb moisture.
Rust removal on warpage prone sheetmetal
If you sandblast that stude hood it will warp. Try a 3M scotchbrite 4" stipper disc on a drill, then use Naval Jelly. Just did same thing, worked 100%
Well more bad advice.
You must get to the bottom of the pits. Anything less and one day it will come back to bite you. I was practicing and went right over rust pits with not rust removal on a practice piece. Looked great when I was done, I am sure it would fall off if I left it outside.
Contrary to popular belief, sandblasting will only cause warpage if you do it wrong. After doing a bunch of cars and not having one piece warped from the process I can safely say it works. I run a pressure pot at 40 PSI and I control the sand in the stream. I only allow enough sand in the stream to be visible out the nozzle. If you want I can go into the science of sandblasting and what causes warpage.
You could grind to the bottom of the pits, but the metal might get thin.
You can use molasses and water to slowly eat out all the rust in the pits.
You can use electrolytic rust removal (this works great!). But you need to rig a big tank.
A wire brush just skips over the surface and never gets really into the pit.
You can also use a product called Ospho. Unlike other treatments, you do not have worry about neutralizing it. This will get to the bottom of the pits.
Rust will not happen with pure water bare metal, well not very easy. A micro current will accelerate the process significantly. A drop of acid rain can set up that current. It is worse on seams because you get a strong battery effect.
In the end, it all comes down to how long you want it to hold up. If you are slapping it out you can probably get a bunch of years laying down some epoxy over the pits and rust. If you want it to look nice then you have to do more.
All the information you need can be had online. Read up on how the products work and think about the surface you are putting it on. Do you think that surface will hold paint real well and for how long?
Lost in NJ, my limited experience...
Had our 28 ford body sand blasted, they promised no warpage, BS. Never again. Learning to do it myself? on these hard to find parts, too risky.
rust converters, redid the hood on my 41 pontiac. It had rust bubles real bad. cleaned it with wire brush very thoroughly, used a rust converter, bc/cc.
within 3or 4 months I had tiny pinhole size spots that look like bubble rust, but havent grown in the last year. Someone said maybe solvent pop?
All other painting was on non rusted surfaces, with no problems.
This hood is RUSTED. Still solid, but very deep surface rust, feels like 36 grit sandpaper. this is a 53 Studebaker C/K Hood. Poor as it is, it was the only one I could find in a long search.
So, it looks like, stipping with a pad, using Ospho ? then epoxy coating, is my best bet? Or sending it out for media blasting other than sand, and having it epoxy coated. You concur?
And I welcome any opinions on the tiny pin spots on my Pontiac. Interesting that the same side front fender (which was painted 15 years ago) has the same tiny little bumps. Such a nice match it looks like the same clown did them both.
A shop locally uses it and swears by it I never have tried it out.
I've very little good and a lot of bad about sand blasting anything for exterior body work. I basically just use a sanding block my self. As far as rust prevention, ultimately I think it is almost impossible. But I've had good luck with rubberizing the inside of fenders ect. . . and using acrylic paint. I like acrylic, some people hate it like using it is a mortal sin, but it hardens to almost like a shell type consistency, will protect even the cheapest most spongiest prime under it. two coats acrylic paint, one coat acrylic clear, deep shine and excellent protection. To remove rust I use several brands of :rust dissolver) it will eat the rust away, ad leave a ashy used to rust substance that wipes or brushes off easily, and then leave a clean pit, or a hole clear through the body panel, ect. Then I can work with the bare metal, to protect mine in the winter or time sI can't paint or do whatever to it, I use floor wax on it, a thick coat . . My two cents.
I have seen over the years too many threads on forums to count where some guy has RUINED panels. I have seen personally, a PRO sandblaster who I have had do "Hard parts" over the years who swore he could do my 28 Buick door, he RUINED it. As I have said before, it isn't a "Darn it, I caused myself more work" kinda damage. It is more of a "%#$@, I DESTROYED the panel and have to throw it away" kinda damage.
Yes, it is possible, but I never suggest it anyone because I have no idea of their skills.
Search out the thread "secrets of rust removal" for the best discussion on the subject.
I can see how my info can/could be mis-read
We only use the rattle can self etch primer for "temporary" bare metal rust prevention help (some of our "restorations" are "forever" to complete) or so bright metal panels can be handled for welding/bonding installation...
We do remove it with a 80 grit sanding to bright steel and maybe even a light sand blasting depending on the part shape to prep for the 2 part epoxy.....
NO WAY would Ospho be used on one of our customers cars!!!!
Red... I was not attacking you, or atleast did not mean to. I have read to many of your posts to think you meant to leave it there. I just didn't want someone else to think it should be done that way.
As far as the Ospho.... I painted a Challenger a year or so ago for a guy. He wanted the underside of the hood painted also, so I started to sand it, and I noticed some loose paint. I stripped it with an air hose and blow nozzle. I ask him what they had done to it when it was painted last time. "We treated it with Ospho because it had had some rust on it", was his response. I did find some minor pitting, but no rust to speak of. I have since seen several cars where the paint was flaking off. The owners told me that same story.
I would almost rather have the rust start back later than have the paint that I spent so many hours and dollars on flake off.
Take some time and read Randy Ferguson's thread on rust removal. It will give you the correct way to remove the rust and be done with it.
Aaron, you beat me to the punch. The article is probably the best I've read on rust removal. ( Randy's piece). I did.t think that picklex was a converter but rather a removal process. Still I agree that it must be completely cleaned (removed) prior to paint, but isn't this a common problem with all of these products.
According to their site,
It is a pretreatment type product. To me, it is similar to Ospho, which I have had dealings with.
Randy recommends using Naval Jelly. That stuff has been around for a very long time, as I remember it from when I was a kid. I have not had any bad experience from people using it. Maybe it is because people seem to follow the instructions for it better than the other shuff.
Navel Jelly "is" Ospho....main ingredient in both is about 40% Phosphoric acid..
as Randy points out the really nice thing about Navel Jelly is it "clings" like a paint stripper so you can scrub with steel wool...otherwise they are the same
the reason the paint fell off that Ospho'd hood (is the same as when using a paint stripper)....on the last application to get the last bit of rust there isn't enough rust to neutralize the amount of Phosphoric acid which will remain active for months....
if you do use Navel Jelly or any acid based "convertor" do at least wash the part with baking soda and Dawn or risk paint failure
old guy,
I do concur with Lost in NJ, the best way is electrolysis...go get a kids plastic swimming pool to submerge the hood to remove deep pits rust...or ship it to these folks here in central FL to deal with it...
how long will epoxy seal out pit rust?
because a hood is a "hot and dry" part of the car, rust grows very very slow to begin with...."fair chance" that the lower qtr's paint will fail with rust before the hood will
last year we did a Hillman Imp, once the front was stripped to bare metal, it was clear the whole front facia should have been cut from the unibody and sent out for treatment..(it was the only heavy pitted metal on the car)....the customer's budget couldn't afford the expense....we told him that honestly our "guess" is that piece will need to be repainted in 5-10 years because we couldn't sand blast the pits clean (happens to be a easy solid color and easy panel to re-paint)
NO we don't just slap them together and cut corners...but worse case scenario....repainting just the hood after 5+ years (is to me) is a better choice than risking warping it in the first place
ps: the Imp was so different to do it was just plain fun to do...and the owner and us are pretty proud...it was part of the "Concourse de Elegance" at this years Lake Mirror Classic...
it's the panel between the headlights in the pic' that's going to fail eventually
pps: for the very best rust protection possible....have the bare steel hood E-coated...but....it must be 101%+ rust free or the coater won't allow it in his tank...

"Good, heavy quality cardstock. I chose the teal option and find it to be both professional and eye-catching - I wanted a card that would be easy to find if flipping through a rolodex, since I don't have a logo, and this is exactly what I was looking for."
"Despite the order not shipping when expected-Tiny Prints took the opportunity to make everything right about the experience. I ended up working with 2 different customer service reps throughout the process and they were both exceptional. They were helpful, service oriented, caring and professional. It tells me that the training received comes from the top down. And the best part is that I was extremely pleased with the product and would order from them again."
"I love this company. They always have fantastic designs and when I hand out business cards, people are always impressed. I'm a devoted customer."
"The front of the card was gorgeous but the print on the back was blurry and the red was bleeding into the white at the edges so it made the text hard to read."
"I have ordered from Tiny Prints before. I like that I can customized my project. The quality and customer service, excellent!"

Southern Writers
Long, William J.
In the South was another group of young writers, quite as able and enthusiastic as their northern contemporaries. Among these we note especially William Gilmore Simms (1806-1870), whose
Border Beagles
Katherine Walton
and many other historical romances of Colonial and Revolutionary days were of more than passing interest. He was a high-minded and most industrious writer, who produced over forty volumes of poems, essays, biographies, histories and tales; but he is now remembered chiefly by his novels, which won him the title of "the Cooper of the South." At least one of his historical romances should be read, partly for its own sake and partly for a comparison with Cooper's work in the same field. Thus
The Yemassee
(1835), dealing with frontier life and Indian warfare, may be read in connection with Cooper's
The Deerslayer
(1841), which has the same general theme; or
The Partisan
(1835), dealing with the bitter struggle of southern Whigs and Tories during the Revolution, may well be compared with Cooper's
The Spy
(1821), which depicts the same struggle in a northern environment.
Other notable writers of the South during this period were Richard Henry Wilde the poet, now remembered by the song (from an unfinished opera) beginning, "My life is like the summer rose"; William Wirt, the essayist and biographer; and John Pendleton Kennedy, writer of essays and stories which contain many charming pictures of social life in Virginia and Maryland in the days "before the war."

If you work that out, I'm game for a set. The gun looks great and can't wait to get one. It's slow torture seeing the progress!
If you work that out, I'm game for a set. The gun looks great and can't wait to get one. It's slow torture seeing the progress!
Still need a price on my parts when you have the time
I'll hold off on the molex's then, and see if you wind up with some.
My fett display needs this
Ok, I finished the center greeble.
I couldnt find any difinitive reference. And I didnt want to copy sidewinders. So I created my own, using parts I know are already on th gun. The following pic is with the original plug laid on it, and then one I ground down, to have rounded corners, correct thickness, and size. Youll see the difference. Input please before I create the plug.
EVERYTHING on the gun, is exactly the way it comes in the kit, just has some super glue holding it together. And a bit of brown whiped dry on the stock.
The bottom two have the double thick, extra wide border block on it. The top pics have the thin border, rounded block. Only 4mm size difference area, and 1mm thickness, but makes a huge difference in the end.
Amazing sir!
A work of art indeed - you must be delighted how it turned out? Looks stunning!
I like it. Im making a mold of all 3 sizes. as theres different theories of which 'size' is correct, and mouting the scopes for silicone. They are gonna be tough to make. But I think finally, I have an idea of how they will be both acurate (except for a brace underside you cant really see) and very functional to secure the scope rigidly (thanks to the brace!)
Ill post a pic of my mold idea tomorrow after my tourney, and see what you guys think.
Im hoping to pull some of these kits monday, to ship tuesday when the post office opens.
So if anyone is sure they want a greeble kit and or gun, better speak up! Cause once I finish this, and get these out, i think im retired from guns
You know I am in for a greeble kit.
i like the top 2 best personally...looks more, say, weathered? but you know i am in for 3 sets brother, so cheers on doing these!!!
Gun and thick kit please!
I'm still in for the full kit and greebs.
The top set for the greebs works for me and I agree that it does look more weathered and used.
Im redoing the center greeble to be more screen acurate. Notperfect, but from 5 feet should be the closest out there.
Ill post a pic of the master before I put it in rubber.
ok here the master I whipped up this morning. need to make a mold, then sand down some spots, then make anothermold. Or maybe leave it like this, the roughness adds distress.
I realize its off a bit. But i used mostly parts from the v8 kit, and I wanted to get it done.
I still think its closer than whats out there, at least that I have seen. What do you guys think?
its already in the rubber. I put accelerator in it. May be pulling these tomorrow to ship monday. The scope mounts are done too. Though I need a second mold. ill make that tonight, so i can pull them tomorrow.
So basically what im saying, is the kits done and ready to ship.
Awesome! That center piece looks great.
Nice work buddy .
Thankjs spidey, as I put in the other thread, this was a quick 2 hour from start to finish build up, as I was almost done, ran across a picture I had never seen, and redid it.
From a piece of sintra and some model kit parts, to being in an inch of silicone, was honestly 1 hr. Which was pretty good really. It took me an hour to look through the model kit, and grind pieces down to put in the block.
Its not perfect, but its closer than Ive seen so far. If i had a better pic, im confident I could make it screen acurate. I could get a lot closer now, but without being able to see all the true details, it seems like more work than I am up for.
I have the scope rings and a second center piece in silicone now, should start pulling complete kits tonight, which will be nice. Cause I want to get this project done
I was the one that posted that picture actually.. it's a really great shot for sure, and one of the first of it's kind... Thanks to Official Pix of course.
I will see if I can dig anything else up for ya.
again Fantastic work.

Well thanks for that pic. Though it added a nice burdon, because I already had 20 of the 'totally wrong' centerpieces done, It at least pushed me to put something closer to acurate, and as I get time, ill make a cad drawing and have one cut thats pretty close to that pic.
He's the original post. http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showp...3&postcount=31

Kanye's Album Complete?
Word on the streets is that Kanye West 6th solo album is complete, but hasn't been titled yet. According to a radio source, Kanye had a private listening session at the Def Jam offices last week where he played the entire album and it was described as dark but good. Hopefully we can hear how great this album is soon! And considering he was out the states to work on the album, we're definitely hoping it's a hot one.
