Stacey David's Rat Roaster by : REVELL
Posted 24 October 2011 - 09:55 AM
Posted 25 October 2011 - 01:44 PM
Hopefully, this will be a non-issue, since the tires on the Rat Roaster are manufactured by Coker. So the big tire brands really don't have much say in it as far as licensing. That's all up to Corky.For me I hope they don't just throw some junk wheels and tires in there and call it good ...we've had enough of them that didn't follow the box art.

Say huh?
EVERY Deuce kit I've ever built came with fenders.
He means the cycle fenders Chuck, not stock fenders.
Posted 08 May 2012 - 06:15 PM
I say it again. It could yield quite a few parts for a Milner Deuce build.
I never noticed that till now. Guess I should pay attention more. It's funny how " wrong " milners coupe was when the movie came out, but it's one of the most recognizable, replicated and inspirational coupes built.

Ok, its a 32 ford with yet, another 350 in it,, ford 9in rear, four wheel disc brake, Don't see were the Rat part comes in,, see a big dollar roadster,, Don't like being the bad guy, but I've seen a thousand differ versions of the same car,, Go to the Turkey Rod Run at Daytona Beach once,,your see,, Really nice car though..
It's Rat ROASTER, not rod, so it's not a throw together "rat" (or high end build made to look ratty). As far as interest, it looks to have wheels and some equipment we haven't seen often in kit form and should be a welcome kit for building and bashing.

Watched the Drag-n-wagon episode today. Saw the Revell 48 Ford Woody during the recap, and it looked like box art for the Roaster in the background.
They had the box art at IHOBBY. My best guess based on the conversation with them is late 4th quarter 2012 or 1st quarter 2013. We may know more when the mid-year announcements come out in the few weeks.
Posted 10 May 2012 - 03:39 PM
It will be interesting to see how Revell handles the rear tires, not to mention the Weiand blower and the trunk/rumble seat area.

Hi, I have enjoyed using Autopatcher (XP, Eng) for quite some time and one of my favourite things about it has been the registry tweaks option. With SP3 having now been released, I find that while I may have less need for Autopatcher, I will come to miss those registry tweaks.
I don't really want to have to install AP each time simply just to use the registry options so I'm wondering if the production team involved might be able to release a standalone registry tweaks patch that takes care of all of those wonderful changes in one easy go? While there may be other XP registry patches out there, none I've seen appear to be anywhere near as thorough or useful.
I shouldn't imagine it would involve too much extra work as the necessary code should, of course, already have been written.
Anyhow, thanks for the many years of work and the hundreds of hours saved and I look forward to what the future holds for this project.
Request for standalone registry tweaks patch?

You could create a self-extracting archive that contains only the regestry tweaks. When extracted, it could be build to run AP from the commandline with an answerfile to install the tweaks that you need, then remove AP from the system. A free, open-source utility that you could use for this is Free Extractor, found athttp://www.disoriented.com/FreeExtractor/ All you would need to do is write a batch file to execute upon extraction to perform the above operations.
Posted 05 June 2008 - 12:22 PM
Thanks for the reply, sounds a little involved. I'll give it a little more time to see if there's an official response before considering other options.

ViroMan's Beta Application
Posted 08 June 2011 - 05:43 AM
I have maby 15-20% of the code converted. Had to make a few functions to mimic ones in VB but, not hard really. Thankfully the code is not overly convoluted.
Posted 08 June 2011 - 04:09 PM
Work at a pace comfortable to you, when you're done, you're done - no rush.
I'm not sure if this premature, maybe not possible, can you program the app to throw off understandable (English readable) error messages rather than cryptic hex or something? Let's say the app fails to connect to the internet, rather than give off error 0x135, it may translate it to "Cannot connect to the internet, please check your connection!"
When it's time I'll help you put together documentation (User, QuickStart, Troubleshooting Guides), this is something the project never really had, again, when the time is appropriate.
Posted 08 June 2011 - 07:52 PM
Going through this VB code is horrid... not the originals programmers skill but, the fact that its VB code. It takes soo much effort to do things which is easy in c++, im literally cutting out 20%+ of extra crap in each source file.
Posted 08 June 2011 - 11:49 PM
Aside from that ... it looks like ViroMan has come a long way in a short time. It looks extremely promising.
Posted 09 June 2011 - 01:51 AM
<beaming with pride>
While I won't say im an excellent programmer or even a great one, I do have diligence and a need to constantly improve my code.
hmm... I update this thread so much I might as well call it a blog... lol
Edited by ViroMan, 09 June 2011 - 01:54 AM.
Posted 10 June 2011 - 10:07 AM
30% converted. Had to create a few more functions to mimic VB code. Also made other functions that made things smoother and had to go back and make changes to several spots in the code I already converted to use them.(I can't stop myself from improving things that seem horribly inefficient)
Im probably gana see about making the code more Object Oriented Programming friendly. ATM its a collection of C++ files. Its getting on my nerves. I love seeing OOP its so simple and easy to manage.
Posted 11 June 2011 - 12:25 PM
Posted 11 June 2011 - 12:41 PM
<off topic>
When I get this all converted to C++ im sure we can find more people to help with the project. No one really wants to convert one language into another. VB isn't used much(from what I have seen) but, C++ is everywhere. Im doing it cuz I think this project has potential and its good to see how other people code things and can give me ideas myself(expand my horizons and what not). So we both get things out of this.

I assure you AutoPatcher has a user base, it has many years of service under it's belt, 8 or more. Most of the problems come from a lack of movement in the code, few new features, unresolved bugs. Also the time it takes to update a script and create the apm files. If this new app really is what Autopatcher and APUP should be, it will make updating a working system a breeze and will become very popular. Most projects focus on creating a new install disk, nLite, HFSLIP... not many free tools do what AutoPatcher does, as well anyway, or they use DOS commands or VB scripts.
The process of displaying the updates, listing them - 'Ready To Install', 'Installed', 'Not Now', if this process could be streamlined, and the ability to know ahead of time the available commands the update can use thru scanning the updates, and using a database (whatever works) of available switches, adding new files would be no harder than dropping the file in a folder, rescanning. The update and the list of commands would be displayed with the default pre-selected /quiet /norestart. This sounds like an advanced users dream, the ability to customize the switch database, and the ability to add and remove them as needed. You could add any number of file types, if you know the available switches, you could create sub categories for files you install repeatedly, Firefox, whatever, add/remove files from the folder contents, rescan, and create a new file install routine.
Anyway, I invited a former team member to come by and check things out, don't know if he will. He had mentioned open source(ing) the project, I guess this would eliminate the need to sign the releases.
There's a lot to be excited about, I want to avoid overwhelming you with too many ideas but a base feature set and a clear idea of what the app should accomplish is needed - use AutoPatcher and APUP is a good start
Posted 11 June 2011 - 02:27 PM
I was even thinking that since I read somewhere on here that Microsoft occasional changes the downloads for some reason but, they are still the right ones.. we could have the module manager program notice that. Im not really sure how to do that without downloading the whole thing except to ask the Microsoft server if the file size has changed and if it has download it to re md5 it.
Edited by ViroMan, 11 June 2011 - 02:32 PM.
Posted 11 June 2011 - 09:28 PM
Which by the way reminds me, since you're looking at the code - I wanted to add a reminder message to the script that 'prints' to the log file, I'm not sure if APUP can use other commands not mentioned in the docs:
PreAction=echo "For log file posting guidance please see the pinned topics here - http://www.autopatcher.com/forums/blahblahblah/"It's apparent APUP will print to the log file, I wonder if an additional form of 'print' could be added in 'PreAction' or ???
Posted 11 June 2011 - 11:56 PM
As for the logging action of apup I plan to make it more verbose with levels of verbosity from simple overview of whats going on down to logging every action taken/decided. Yes you would also be able to add to the log.

As for ideas, I have many, keeping in line with AutoPatcher's goals. I don't want to overwhelm though! Short version, a 3 (or 4) tabbed tool to install updates, create scripts, download team member or user created scripts, and create system profiles (my.xpx86, wifes.7x64, work.accounts.box). When the app is run you're met with a task pane window - "What type of task would you like to perform : 'Patching', 'Scripting', 'Updating', 'Profiling'?"
I'll put my concept in Spoiler - easier to read. I will update as things come to mind or you say "way too sophisticated" or "no way" I figure you wont be able to create some of the code, likely professional programmer stuff or beyond Borland 6 so no worries if you can't do something.
Posted 12 June 2011 - 08:48 AM
ahh ahha... it hurts. Don't say that. im not incompetent. Anything can be done with c++ given research into the situation. Borland 6 can do anything the newer ones can do. It just doesn't have the newer tools or more streamlined gui. What it lacks int tools I can make/have made up for in codding. The only thing I refuse to code is drivers.
Anyways did you want that all in one tool or did you want an update tool and a release management tool?
APUP already profiles your system. It just doesn't save it, it doesn't check IE ver either.
So you want to be able to create a profile for a different computer by selecting what the OS is and so on so you can download updates based on that?

APUP (download manager) does detect the OS of the machine that launches apup.exe, what I was referring to (Patching: above) is AutoPatcher (autopatcher.exe), the AutoPatcher log lists the Components I mentioned.

Well, we can come back to this, it may or may not be a needed feature. I need to clarify my idea in my own head.
What I don't want to do is stifle the brain-storming process, get it out there (within reason), and slowly reduce to the best features with a clear idea of the process (function). I suppose we need to get some concepts going, sketches, flow diagrams -> clicking 'this' opens 'this' window with 'these' lists of available options.
Small chunks or sub routines of the larger tasks, eventually comprising the app as a whole. I need a project management book

Hey you lurkers POST your ideas. Make a new thread for your ideas and discuss them there.

You can wait, I'm sure the requests will roll in (maybe not) but it's the few release maintainers that do the work so I figure the opinions matter most coming from those who build and maintain.
What was the movie quote - "build it and they will come", or was it "ask them to help you build it and you both can use it". Since it sounds like you want more voices I may step aside and let you dialog with other users, this is reasonable, I don't want to hog the ideas. I'm sure you can throw something together without more input from me.
I've been spending more time here than I wanted to and I do need to attend to some business. I'll get back in a couple weeks and see how things are. Strangely I thought I would get more feedback with the update to XP SP3, only 3 downloads of the test .md5 file. The good thing with that is maybe more users are moving to 7 which would free me up from the XP script. You may think about a Windows 7 only tool, maybe look to Windows 8.
I'll check back in 2 weeks, 30 days at most.

I did not realize you had updated XP, so I updated and ran AP across my system. I made a comment
in the AutoPatcher for Windows XP SP3 (x86) thread.

We discuss beta issues in the BetaTeam forum (ideally). I know you can't see the forum now - alpha / beta development projects get ironed out in private, when a reasonable project can be advertised for more testing & opinion we provide a link.
Also, we have 5 or 6 people available to dialog with now - me, you, Domenico (dkdk_it), Cristiano, excalibur, and one former team member should they decide to come back. Between the 5 or 6 of us we should be able to get something going. We can add (via PM) click-click, DesertJerry, and others to the list of users who may want to contribute ideas and do preliminary testing - this brings the total project team to 7 or 8, this is plenty from my perspective. Too many cooks spoil the broth.
I mentioned in post #5 BetaTeam so we can get this thing going with the gory details kept private until a working tool is ready for public scrutiny.
Think about it, now would be a good time to get out. No one can stop you at any point of course. I would rather you back out now and avoid being dismayed if you don't have 50 users making comments about your work. Not much has been said about AutoPatcher over the last 7 years, despite the silence they keep downloading the logs confirm it.
If / When you're ready we can move forward and work with the group we have, which is an excellent group. The 8 or so of us I'm sure can put together an excellent new application
As far as my absence for a time, this won't hinder the work on the existing code, will it? I have a commitment to another project I can't ignore either.

Safavieh Antiquities AT14A Rust Rug
Item #: 101AT14A-P Add to Wishlist
$33 - $692 + FREE SHIPPINGDescription: The elegant designs and rich colors of these rugs are inspired from 19th century antique Persian rugs. A special herbal wash gives these rugs their luster and an aged patina. This collection is hand tufted in India of 100% hand-spun premium wool.
- Collection: Antiquities

Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
I used my computer tablet to determine if the colors were compatible with the decor and it was exactly as pictured. I love it and it is perfect. Thank you.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The colors of the runner are very close to the colors shown on the computer screen - maybe a little more green than seen here. It is a plush rug and quite thick - I would have liked it to be a little thinner - but I am overall happy with it.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.In person, this is an average (low-end) looking rug, and the colors are more tan and muted. This image hardly resembles the piece. I wish I had listened to the others.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.I love my rug! The quality is good and it is thick and soft to walk on. The only thing is the variation in the brightness of the pattern from one side to the other. I have been informed that this gives the rug the antique look. Also the colors are totally different than the picture. Still they are perfect for my room.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Excellent quality, nice fabric, looks fantastic - liked so much, bought an accent rug
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Carb question
So I got my car up and running again and test drove it around and it kept stalling out and it would be hard to start afterward. My accelerator pump isn't working anymore and I don't know why. I pulled the top of the carb off and manually pumped it with my finger and it worked pretty good. I rebuilt my carb not to long ago. It's weird because there was like a bunch of crud in there. It might be the ethanoled gas but idk. Any help? Plus it's weird because the pump has like a sleeve with like a slip joint that let's the plunger go downmore. Idk please help!!!
So, when you take the air cleaner off (when the carb's on the car) and you pull the linkage (or have someone in the car press on the accelerator), there is NO "shot of gas" pushed into the carb by the pump? Yet it pumps when you have the carb on the bench and turn the linkage with your fingers?
Is it possible that there is a completely different problem, which you think is the accelerator pump? -
Fuel filter/screen? I spent a week fighting an engine that wouldn't run. Guess what, inlet screen completely plugged. After some cranking enough fuel would get in so it would appear to be getting fuel, but as soon as the throttle opened it would die. Yeah, felt like an idiot.
Another thought, Elevation? I live around 6000 ft, and with the pump on the outer hole of the pump arm (WGD) it stumbles really bad right off idle. Rich enough that i can kill it if i get a little happy with the foot-feed. I have moved the pump link to the inner hole, no stumble now but a little flat from a stop. Carb is freshly rebuilt, but I have some more tinkering/checking to do.Six in a row makes it GO! -
Moved the pump link to the inner hole. Where exactly is that?
Assuming you have a WGD...
Not the clearest picture, but it'll tell you where to look.
When you rebuilt, did you check the pump travel as per the manual?
Available here: http://hetclub.org/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=98WGD-Pump.JPG408 x 379 - 31KSix in a row makes it GO! -
I'm pretty sure I did but I forget. It used to pump pretty well. The thing I'm worried about is the plunger has a sleeve and what I think is happening is when I assemble the carb, the first shot will push the plunger down And swift pretty well and then when it's retracting, it's just pulling up on the sleeve like a slip joint and not retracting the plunger. I'm going to pull it off and clean it up again and see what's up with it. I'll get back to you on the plunger position to the arm.( which hole I mean)
So you get one good shot then not much afterwards? Check the check-ball in the pump well and the check-needle under the discharge nozzles. They could be getting stuck. All your pump springs in place? One in the well and one on the plunger assembly?Six in a row makes it GO!
Which springs are you talking about? I have one under the plunger which is probably the one in the well I'm guessing. I don't think I have the plunger assembly spring you speak of. Where is that located? And yes sorry it's a wgd
There's a spring on the plunger itself:
Also, I have been tinkering with mine over lunch... Not sure if it's the pump causing the stumble with mine now. Might be that the rods pop up to the power step too quick, or the power step is too rich for my elevation.WGD-PumpSprings.JPG478 x 256 - 14KSix in a row makes it GO! -
It sounds to me like you answered your own question . You said it was running fine after you let it set for awhile now it has a gummed up carb.
Get som Yamaha brand carb cleaner from a motercyle shop or on line. And use it as directed and it will clean out the gum and it will work again.
RogerRetired Tech. -
Yeah I don't have that spring. I'm pretty sure I didn't have that spring in the first place. Does your plunger have a sleeve and slip joint? Maybe I have te wrong plunger? And yes the carb probably needs to be cleaned but that wouldn't explain the plunger stop working would it?
My plunger has the slip joint. The spring acts as a delay so the pump shot is a nice stedy stream through the whole throttle movement, regardless how fast you open the throttle. Edelbrock Performer pump plungers are the same setup, so maybe you can use the spring and retainer from one of them if a WGD one can't be found (haven't confirmed, this... but they sure look close.)Six in a row makes it GO!

Henry Selick Movies
In the early '90s, a maverick animator named
Henry Selick
, then of limited public recognition, inherited the much-coveted task of helming one of visionary
Tim Burton
's longtime pet projects,
The Nightmare Before Christmas
-- not by any stretch the first stop-motion animated feature (the technique had been used, to varying degrees, for decades), but one that imparted to the technique a mesmerizing fluidity unseen up through that time in cinemas.
's broadest exposure to date and his first entrance into the public eye, but only the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
's career in the movie business actually began over 15 years prior, and encompassed a whole host of rare and astonishing accomplishments that led
Roger Ebert
to term him "a veteran."
As a man of prodigious illustrative ability,
graduated from CalArts in the late '70s and wasted no time launching his career. He made a beeline for Disney, that hotbed of animated talent, and enlisted as a key member of the company's character animation design program. Work on
Pete's Dragon
The Small One
ensued, but the endeavors bored the wildly imaginative
, who temporarily resigned in 1979 to develop his own projects, with an AFI grant. This yielded the nine-minute, experimental animated short
(1981), the story of two people conversing beside a pool. The effort netted multiple awards and further developed
's reputation; he subsequently returned to Disney with a higher profile, but work on
The Fox and the Hound
failed to fully engage his creative energies, and he resigned shortly thereafter.
By 1986,
founded his own production house, Selick Projects, which used stop-motion animation to market products, and signed with a number of massive corporate clients in the process. Among other efforts,
masterminded The Pillsbury Doughboy, a Ritz crackers ad with the crackers skiing down a mountain made entirely of cheese, and a series of now-infamous animations for MTV that included a short where a bee carves the station logo into an individual's hair; the latter won a Clio.
's success continued, unabated, with his development and production of an additional animated short,
Slow Bob in the Lower Dimensions
. Although the endeavor gleaned countless honors at festivals including the 1990 Ottawa Animation Festival and the 1990 Chicago Animation Festival, a more important occurrence was afoot: the short reunited
Tim Burton
, whom he had known not at Disney (which one might expect given the coinciding of the men's tenures there) but at CalArts, where they developed abiding respect and esteem for one another.
Slow Bob
, fell in love with it, and immediately thought of collaborating with
on a new project -- err, so to speak. Years prior,
had sketched out designs for
The Nightmare Before Christmas
as a Disney animator. Because he completed the initial sketches under Disney's aegis, that studio still held the original illustrations and rights to the project years later. Given the quadruple successes of
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure
(1989), and
Edward Scissorhands
(1990), the company greenlighted the project, delighting
, who immediately invited
to direct the piece under his supervision. It told the story of a typical
misfit, the spooky Jack Skellington, one of the creators of Halloween who decides to kidnap Santa and assume St. Nick's role as the progenitor of Christmas -- with predictably outrageous results.
The fate of
is, by now, well known: upon its release in 1993, it triumphed on all fronts. At a mere 74 minutes (and several years in production) this comic fantasy delighted everyone and their uncle and permanently launched
as a mainstream feature director. Of the widespread critical raves,
Roger Ebert
wrote of the picture and
's involvement: "
...is a...
film in the sense that the story, its world, and its look first took shape in
's mind...but the director of the film, a veteran stop-action master named
Henry Selick
, is the person who has made it all work. And his achievement is enormous. Working with gifted artists and designers, he has made a world here that is as completely new as the worlds we saw for the first time in such films as
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari
, or
Star Wars
." The film's box-office success paved the way for Disney to give the go-ahead to
for a follow-up. He chose to adapt
Roald Dahl
's classic novel James and the Giant Peach as a feature in the
vein -- a process that took several years. The studio released the picture, stateside, in April 1996, to solid reviews;
commented, "[The animators'] achievement is...amazing. All of the creatures, especially the colorful insects that share James' journey, are brought to vivid life, and the fact that we can see realistic textures -- like the cloth in some of the costumes -- gives the illusion an eerie quality halfway between reality and invention." And in The New York Times , even as Janet Maslin had some serious reservations about the picture (such as its lack of a clear audience), she declared of the filmmakers, "Together, this prodigiously clever group has come up with expert animated effects and some boldly beautiful sights unlike anything else on screen: the sight of the peach being pulled by a flight of seagulls through a starry sky, for example." Five years would pass before
's tertiary effort emerged, and alas, it didn't fare nearly so well. The director's 2001 animation/live action combo
Brendan Fraser
Bridget Fonda
, and
Whoopi Goldberg
, and upped the edginess of
content to a PG-13 level. Its story -- about a cartoonist creator (
) of a raunchy animated primate (the title character) who finds himself sucked into the cartoon-inhabited "Dark Town" and threatened by the prospect of the ape taking over his body -- came closest to

Based on a story by Hollywood old-timers Seton I. Miller and S. S. Field, Pete's Dragon divides its time between its flesh-and-blood characters and an animated green dragon. Pete (Sean Marshall), a lonely orphan boy in turn-of-the-century Maine, runs away from his abusive foster family. He stumbles upon a lovable dragon named Elliot, and the two become inseparable companions. Elliot is visible only to Pete, leading the townsfolk to assume that the boy is a trifle tetched. Pete finally finds happiness with his "new" family, lighthouse-keeper Lampie (Mickey Rooney) and his daughter Nora (Helen Reddy, who sings and sings). British comic actor Jim Dale co-stars as the wacky dentist Dr. Terminus. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This stop-motion animated fable was a big hit when it was released -- not only at the box office, but critically. It was praised for its stunning originality and for the excellence of its execution. In addition, it was praised for being a completely absorbing fable that both grownups and children can enjoy, so long as the children are able to its handle scary bits (beginning perhaps at age seven or eight). In the story, Jack Skellington (voice of Chris Sarandon) is the Pumpkin King of Halloweentown, a realm of reality where the inhabitants make it their life's work to scare humans on Halloween. He's good at his work, and is very popular around town, but it all bores him. In a funk one day, he wanders into a wood where every tree is the doorway to realms serving one or another human holiday, and falls through the doorway into Christmas. There, he sees scenes of such glee and good will that he is overwhelmed. He returns to Halloweentown with the inspiration to persuade his fellow citizens to kidnap Santa and do Christmas in their own Halloweentown way -- complete with snakes and shrunken heads. Despite strong arguments against this project by Jack's otherwise loyal girlfriend, Sally (voice of Catherine O'Hara), Santa (voice of Edward Ivory) is duly captured, and the townspeople prepare a very special Christmas for everyone. Jack is excited about the new plan, and at first doesn't notice that Sally isn't around much anymore. Meanwhile, Oogie Boogie (voice of Ken Page), a sinister opponent of Jack's, has re-kidnapped Santa and has captured Sally as well. Since Sally is the true love of Jack's life and (he eventually realizes) the only one who can be relied upon to tell him the truth in every circumstance, a confrontation with Oogie Boogie becomes inevitable. In addition to being a monumental work of animation (it took over 120 animators and many more technicians more than two years to film it), this show features ten very appropriate musical numbers by composer Danny Elfman, who also supplies Jack's singing voice. In October 2006, fans of the innovative animated classic got to experience The Nightmare Before Christmas in a whole new dimension when the film was re-released into theaters in Disney Digital 3-D -- a process developed to add remarkable new depth to films that were originally released in standard 2-D. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Add James and the Giant Peach to top of Queue
A young boy's discovery of a gigantic peach triggers an eventful journey across the sea in this strikingly designed and surprisingly twisted animated adventure. A live-action framing device establishes the dark yet fanciful mood one might expect from an adaptation of a Roald Dahl story, as young British lad James (Paul Terry) is orphaned by the death of his parents and forced to live with two cruel, repulsive aunts (played by noted British character actors Miriam Margolyes and Joanna Lumley of British TV hit Absolutely Fabulous). The visit of a mysterious stranger provides a means of escape, however, through a magic bag of "crocodile tongues" that bring about the appearance of the giant peach. The curious James soon winds up inside the fruit, at which point his body changes, and the film switches to a combination of stop-motion and digital animation. The new James meets up with a group of talking, oversized insects, including a vampish spider (voiced by Susan Sarandon), a sarcastic centipede (voiced by Richard Dreyfuss), and a matronly ladybug (voiced by Jane Leeves). These creatures become his traveling companions when the peach rolls into the Atlantic Ocean, and James and his new friends must brave a variety of dangers to reach the shore. Director Henry Selick provides further proof of the visual skill he demonstrated in The Nightmare Before Christmas, creating a fascinating, often eerie alternate universe, while Randy Newman provides the upbeat musical accompaniment. Young children may be disturbed by the story's creepier overtones, but the mixture of remarkable visuals, oddball characters, and off-kilter fantasy will appeal to all other audiences. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

This feverishly energetic comedy combines stop-motion animation and live action from director Henry Selick, creator of The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) and James and the Giant Peach (1996). Brendan Fraser stars as Stu Miley, a cartoonist who created a randy monkey character called Monkeybone that has taken off in popularity, making him a celebrity. Stu's set to launch a TV series based on Monkeybone and marry his beautiful fiancée Julie (Bridget Fonda) when he's injured in a freak accident that puts him in a coma. He travels to Dark Town, a holding area for the comatose who wait to either regain consciousness or move on to the afterlife with the help of Death (Whoopi Goldberg). Dark Town is also a realm where fictional characters reside and before long Stu has met the vulgar Monkeybone, who travels back to the land of the living to inhabit Stu's body. Aided by Kitty (Rose McGowan), Stu must find a way to reclaim his body and put Monkeybone back in his place before the raunchy primate ruins his charmed life. Monkeybone is based on the cartoon graphic novel Dark Town by Kaja Blackley. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

The first effort from director Wes Anderson since his critically beloved The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou finds the filmmaker re-teaming with a number of familiar faces, including Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Anjelica Huston, and Seymour Cassel. Murray plays Steve Zissou, an eccentric and renowned oceanographer who has decided to seek out and enact mortal revenge on a shark that ate one of the men on his team. Along for the ride is Ned Plimpton (Owen Wilson), a young man who has joined Zissou's crew after showing up claiming to be the seaman's long-lost son and Zissou's co-producer (and estranged wife), Eleanor Angelica Huston. As the expedition ensues, the two bond and Plimpton falls for a female journalist (Cate Blanchett) who is writing a piece on Zissou. The crew meets a host of obstacles on their journey, including pirates, kidnapping, and bankruptcy. Adding a flair of whimsy to the film's aesthetic, the sea creatures and underwater scenes in the film have been created using stop-motion animation under the direction of Henry Selick, the man behind The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach. The ensemble cast also includes Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Michael Gambon, Noah Taylor, and Bud Cort. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

Add Coraline to top of Queue
A young girl walks through a secret door and discovers a parallel reality that is eerily similar to the life she already knows, yet deeply unsettling in a number of ways, in director Henry Selick's animated adaptation of Neil Gaiman's international best-seller. Eleven-year-old Coraline Jones (voice of Dakota Fanning) is fearlessly courageous, and perhaps far too adventurous for her own good. Coraline and her parents (Teri Hatcher and John Hodgman) have recently relocated to Oregon from Michigan. Bored in her new home since her parents are distracted by work and she has yet to make any new friends, Coraline passes the time by exploring her new neighborhood with an annoying local boy named Wybie Lovat (Robert Bailey Jr.). But after paying a visit to her eccentric neighbors Miss Spink (Jennifer Saunders) and Miss Forcible (Dawn French), a pair of aging British actresses, and crossing paths with the outright weird Mr. Bobinsky (Ian McShane), the precocious young girl becomes convinced that her new surroundings are just as dull as she'd initially suspected. Shortly thereafter, Coraline discovers a hidden door in her new house, and decides to investigate. Venturing into the eerie passageway inside, Coraline emerges into an alternate version of her own reality. At first glance, this strange new world seems even better than the real thing; there her parents aren't distracted by work, and Coraline is always the center of attention. There's even a mysterious Cat (Keith David) that's fascinated by her every move. But when Coraline's button-eyed Other Mother (also Hatcher) attempts to make her stay permanent, the frightened young girl must summon her resourcefulness and bravery in order to find her way back home and save her real family. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Fayetteville police are investigating the report of a rape at Cross Creek Mall on Monday night.
Police said a 16-year-old girl was at the mall shopping with her family when she was pulled into a bathroom and assaulted around 7:30 p.m.
Detectives from the Fayetteville Police Department's Special Victims Unit responded to a hospital in another county Tuesday after the teenager reported the assault.
Spokesman Gavin MacRoberts said police could not say whether the teenager indicated she knew her assailant or if it was a random attack. He said police do not have a description of the assailant. MacRoberts could not say in which bathroom in the mall the girl said she was attacked.
Cross Creek Mall spokeswoman Tammy Hopkins, the mall's security director and the operations manager did not return calls for comment.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Fayetteville Police Department at 433-1856 or Crimestoppers at 483-TIPS (8477).

My Shapeways Store SALE- some cool custom accessories like the Diamond Ray of disappearance, TrapJaw's Attachments, Coridite Crystals, Teleportation Device, Stasis Ray, Horn of Evil, Tytus Hammer, etc...
A seller that bought the 10 max are selling them on Ebay now for $35 - so people can still get him - although the seller was selling them at 29.95 until he sold out a few minutes ago.
EDIT: almost gone there too - I better get a finder fee for that one.

I kinda doubt it, plus Pixel Dan said he'd gotten more people asking when that review was coming than any other review he's done (or something along those lines).
Indeed, Daniel is a fine fellow, and congrats to him on such a fast sell out!

I was on Matty shortly after 12:00 and saw a white screen so figured I would wait a bit and order him. I went back and he was sold out. I must have just missed him (frowny face). I hope there's a black Friday 30th aniversary box set. I really only want Dragoe and Grayskullman, but will buy the collection at a reasonable price.
CONGRATS to Daniel! He must be proud to see his figure sell out so fast. I know I would be.
MY TOP 5 MOST WANTED MOTU Classics:
Ice Armor He-Man, Rio Blast, Multi-Bot, Ninjor, Sagitar
I got a couple of extra ones! Kick ass figure!!
I figured this figure woud sell out, go figure but... I didn't want to sell out this quickly! I came just a couple minutes too late, I'm deeply saddened. I wanted this guy since his debut, if any you fellers can help... I would be the happiest.

Glad I was able to get my order in!

Comments about Gregory Jade 50 Backpack (Women's):
I haven't found anything yet I don't like about this pack. Its incredibly comfortable, packs well, and has lots of organized storage. I've used it for both back packing and travel. So far, this pack has stood up to quite a bit of abuse and still looks new.

in response to Traditional:
The credit rating drop last summer hurt us not one bit. In the month following the downgrade (by one of three agencies), US Treasuries continued to auction at the same low rates that they had been for the previous months, and the bid-to-cover ratio (basically how many are bidding compared to how many want to buy) remained as high as had been for several months.
Despite our downgraded rating, investors still viewed US Treasuries as desirable. This is due in part to availability. No one else issues so much.
This will not last for ever. If our "balance sheet" is not stabilized, investors will eventually demand a better return for the added risk. So, additional borrowing, increased costs of borrowing, and an economy that just won't rebound, will all play into a worsening scenario. Of course, the Fed buying so much of the debt destorts the picture.
The Fed is the biggest buyer of US debt now. They are propping up the value so we did not feel the effects of the downgrade, unlike the Greece bonds.
