When there's sweat on your brow, and it's way too late to turn back, it's time to choose wisely. To help you make the right choice when victory is on the line, Logitech today unveiled extensions to its award-winning G-series line of gaming peripherals: the Logitech Gaming Mouse G500 and the Logitech Gaming Headset G330. The Gaming Mouse G500 refreshes the popular Logitech G5 Laser Mouse with the latest gaming-grade laser engine and a battle-worn appearance, while the Gaming Headset G330 delivers comfort that won't quit - even after long hours of battle. "As more and more people make gaming with family and friends the new night out, Logitech continues to push the envelope with the Logitech G-series," said Ruben Mookerjee, Logitech's director of product marketing for gaming. "If you're getting serious about gaming - or have already seen the light - then the best way to dive ever deeper into the game is by putting the G500 mouse in your good hand and the G330 headset on your head. Victory is up to you." For gamers, especially the more than 11 million people playing World of Warcraft or the millions on a tour of Call of Duty, the Gaming Mouse G500 and the Gaming Headset G330 help ensure that every late-night gaming session is victorious. Logitech Gaming Mouse G500 The successor to the classic Logitech G5 Laser Mouse, the Logitech Gaming Mouse G500 delivers game-changing precision at any hand speed. With its gaming-grade laser engine you can rev up your intensity - reaching a maximum hand speed of 165 inches per second (ips) and a maximum acceleration force of 30 gs. An on-the-fly adjustable-dpi gives you the right level of precision - from pixel-precise targeting (200 dpi) to lightning-fast maneuvers (up to 5700 dpi) - for whatever game you're playing. (The dpi can be adjusted, after installing the Logitech Gaming Software, in increments of 100 dpi). Plus, full-speed USB helps ensure that the G500 mouse is smooth and responsive. But the G500 mouse offers much more than precision. A rugged finish offers a battle-worn accent to your gear. And an updated shape - with a broader thumb rest and a smoothed-out pinkie ledge - makes the new Logitech gaming mouse more comfortable when you're in the heat of competition. When you're ready to battle, the onboard memory lets you save and take the settings for your favorite title with you - no software required. If you're sensitive to weight, the G500 mouse offers weight tuning, including up to 27 grams of extra weight for personalized feel and control. The additional weights fit into a removable chassis and, when not in use, can be stored in the accompanying case. A dual-mode scroll wheel - with hyper-fast scrolling for those times that you have to work - provides click-to-click scrolling that's perfect for weapon selection. And ten programmable buttons put valuable macros in your hand (software required). Logitech Gaming Headset G330 Even when gaming casualties are heavy, your Logitech Gaming Headset G330 isn't. The lightweight G330 headset combats fatigue with its adjustable, behind-the-head design - the first of its kind for gaming headsets - that slides for a personalized fit. To further relieve common pressure points on your head, the G330 headset features a soft silicone-lined headband and pivoting ear pads. And with durable steel spring at its core, the flexible headband is designed to withstand the wear and tear of furious battle. A noise-canceling microphone reduces annoying background noise and rotates out of the way when you're not using it. The in-line audio controls let you adjust the volume or mute the microphone without pausing the action. An included USB adapter lets you choose to connect digitally to any USB port for enhanced audio or directly to your PC sound card via 3.5 mm jacks. Pricing and Availability The Logitech Gaming Mouse G500 is expected to be available in the U.S. and Europe in September for a suggested retail price of $69.99 (U.S.). The Logitech Gaming Headset G330 is expected to be available in the U.S. and Europe in August for a suggested retail price of $49.99 (U.S.).
its taken them long enough to launch a replacement of the g5 tbh - now make that replacement wireless like the G7 and i'll drop my G9 faster than you can say logitech. **edit** looks like me and newtekie think alike
and me. <3 my G5, not so keen on my G7 - but its the first revision, and the firmware bugs are what screw me over (i have to unplug and replug it after changing batteries, or it wont work on my mousepad)
I dont think Logitech are gonna be in a hurry to make a wireless gaming mouse for a while otherwise they wouldnt have discontinued the G7. why discontinue a product if its still bringing in the cash? I had a G7 myself, totally loved it till I got sick of the battery pack quitting every 6 hours.
that pisses me off with mine, they say weeks of battery use, yet you get less than half a day. like my dinovo that says 2 months, more like 2 weeks.
I wish my G7 didn't break after like 3 years, best mouse I ever used. I'd be all over the G5 but I want wireless though a nice wireless mouse is kinda hard to find, most of the ones I've seen are wired. Batteries were crap after a few years, had to charge them each day but it was awesome with hotswap. Though AA batteries in my LX7 mouse lasted months. Keyboard is still going too.
at the start the battery use to last at least a few days but, ive had the mouse at least 3 years dont forget - its bound to get raped. but it got to the point where I had the charge always on turbo mode otherwise it wouldnt be fully charged by the time the other pack died.
The G7 hasn't been discontinued, it is still available on Logitech's site: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mice_pointers/mice/devices/163&cl=us,en The battery packs do start to die, just like all rechargable batteries, which is why I just bought 2 more to replace my old ones. Two of them only cost me $16 Shipped off logitech's site: http://www.buylogitech.com/store/lo...=OMHiEwoBAiMAAAMj1ksAAAAS&rests=1249574442247
its been discontinued a good few years in the UK. Its hard to find a retailer that stocks it unless its really really old stock that never got shifted. Im not suprised its still available in the US.
Yeah, I just switched over to to the UK version of logitech's site when I saw you were in the UK, and saw they have removed it from their site...that sucks... You can't even get parts for it, like the replacement battery packs...that really really sucks...
Mine was like it from day 1 - then again, its probably been on a shelf for a looooooong time before i got it. Discontinued here too, for a long time. logitech Au dont want to admit the damn thing exists - no tech support, no warranty, no parts - nothing.
from what ive heard....most of the people that contacted Logitech CC (via email or on the phone) about replacement parts for the G7, all got sent G9's - I know at least 3 people that did that & read somewhere that it happend with few others too. Its a shame the Razor Mamba is around £130 here in the UK otherwise that woulda been a nice replacement for a aged G7 since thats wireless also.
IMO mambas quite overpriced esp in uk like you said there are many people having issues with it tho most of them are fixed through firmware update. About logitechs support ive read soo many good things about them apparently they send out a replacement to you without even asking for the old faulty product back I haven't needed to get anything replaced yet as there build quality is usually top notch.
Ive read specs & reviews on the mamba, honestly the most id say its worth is maybe £80 but then what they call 'gaming grade' might be the same laser engine that went into the G7 & the problem with these is you cant really tell. the G7 was around £60-70, the mamba has a few new features. very nice but really not worth paying £130 for
Mamba costs £110 in my local PC shop £100 on Amazon. Who came up with the £130? I'm suprised how cheap the G500 is, it's about 10$ more than G5, that's really a big step for Logitech - making something affordable.

Maximize the return on your facilities assets
CFOs and financial executives continue to place increased emphasis on real estate and facilities assets as a key strategic asset. Senior executives use facilities to generate top-line improvement in their financial performance by opening new locations, as a source of capital to fund revenue growth, and consolidate or dispose of underperforming facilities to bring about significant expense reduction.
In addition, pending changes to lease accounting rules that will place operating leases on the balance sheets of public companies in the U.S., Europe and many countries will increase the impact of facilities on financial performance.
With IBM facilities management solutions, finance and real estate executives can make faster, more informed decisions that bring increased value to their organizations though identification of high-return real estate transactions, increased facilities utilization and reduced energy expenses.
Lease accounting has now emerged as an essential component for smarter businesses
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) — accounting standards boards for the US, Europe and many countries — are jointly developing a new, soon to be released, accounting standard that will require large publicly traded companies to add an average of $1 billion in new assets to their balance sheets. Yet, 92% percent of executives considered their companies NOT PREPARED to capture, organize and report the balance sheet impact on their company today, according to a joint IBM and CFO Research Services study on the impact of the new lease accounting standard.
What are the realities that your company must consider?
According to our survey, the addition of operating leases to the balance sheet accounting of public companies will create a significant increase in the complexity and operational workload of finance, facilities and asset management functions within mid- to large-sized companies.
Furthermore, 58 percent of executives surveyed expect new information, new processes and new reporting requirements such as management of financial and operational assumptions related to renewal options will require companies to implement major system upgrades or new lease accounting systems to comply with the new lease accounting standard—see figure below.
Facility energy efficiency proves critical to achieve environmental and energy management goals
The International Facility Management Association reports that energy costs represent 23% of the total facilities occupancy costs.
Consider another fact. Ninety-one percent of organizations who successfully achieved their environmental and energy management goals invested in facility energy efficiency, according to an IBM environmental and energy management study. This same survey identified that a majority of those organizations that achieved their goals invested in three high-level tactics to reduce energy use within their facilities:
- Introduction of operational improvements to reduce maintenance downtime and cost.
- Investment in building retrofit programs to improve efficiency of existing assets.
- Implementation of space management programs to increase facilities utilization.
IBM facilities management software family delivers advanced features that improve return on facility assets:
- Evaluates balance sheet and P&L impact of facility lease vs. purchase decisions.
- Identifies under-utilized and poor-performing facilities, assets, processes and resources.
- Simplifies scenario analysis of strategic facility plans against plan goals, and status quo scenarios.
- Analyzes building conditions, prioritizes investments and assesses ROI for smarter facilities decisions.
- Automates generation of critical alerts, payment processing and other critical facilities controls.
Using IBM facilities management capabilities, organizations can reduce operating costs and increase return on assets. IBM helped Dow Chemical Company (PDF, 796KB) realize a 20 percent increase in facility use across more than 20 million square feet of lab and administrative office. While, IBM's own Real Estate Site Operations (PDF, 780KB) (RESO) achieved an incremental eight percent energy cost savings at a 3.3 million square foot manufacturing facility through real-time energy optimization.

Akron, OH (Sports Network) - Jim Furyk carded an even-par 70 on Saturday to keep his lead after three rounds of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational.
Furyk, the 2001 runner-up, finished 54 holes at 11-under-par 199. He'll go for his 17th PGA Tour title on Sunday.
Former British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen shot 2-under 68 to get within one at minus-10. Last year's PGA Championship winner Keegan Bradley posted a 3-under 67 to end three rounds at 7-under-par 203.
Those three will play in the final threesome on Sunday. There is bad weather in the forecast so tee times will run from 8-10 a.m. ET with players in threesomes off the first and 10th tees.
"I'm hoping we don't get a lot of rain and we get to go out and play in the morning and get after it," Furyk said in a television interview.
Rory McIlroy carded a 67, while Steve Stricker posted his third straight 68. They share fourth place at minus-6.
Justin Rose and Bo Van Pelt both shot 4-under 66 on the South Course at Firestone Country Club. They were joined in sixth place at 5-under-par 205 by John Senden, who had a 69 on Saturday.
Tiger Woods, a 7-time winner of this event, posted a 2-under 68 to finish 54 holes at even-par 210, while last year's winner Adam Scott managed a 1-over 71 to finish three rounds at 2-over-par 212.
Furyk 2-putted for birdie from the fringe on the par-5 second to move to 12- under. That gave him a 4-stroke lead over Oosthuizen. That was Furyk's last birdie of the day.
Between the third and eighth, Furyk had six straight birdie chances all from inside 23 feet, but he failed to convert any of them. He came up short at the ninth, then rattled his birdie chip off the stick.
He tapped in for par there, then 2-putted for par on 10. Furyk got up and down from a greenside bunker for par on 11. His tee shot on the par-3 12th missed the green in the right rough.
Furyk chipped to 11 feet and 2-putted for a bogey. He closed with six straight pars to hold on to his lead.
"I felt like today the golf course played a little bit more difficult, the greens firmed up a little and the wind just made it tough," Furyk said in a televised interview. "I thought it was tougher to get the ball closer to the pin."
Oosthuizen parred his first seven holes. He stumbled to a bogey on the par-4 eighth, but came right back with a birdie on the ninth.
The 2010 Open Champion was four behind Furyk, but his deficit quickly dropped to two as Oosthuizen birdied the 12th and Furyk followed with a bogey on the same hole.
Oosthuizen got up and down for birdie from over the green on the par-5 16th to get within one. That's where he ended as he parred the final two holes.
"I missed a lot of fairways on the front nine, but I hit it a little better on the back nine," Oosthuizen said in a TV interview. "All in all, my short game helped me a lot today. I made some putts to save par."
NOTES: Furyk won just four of the previous 19 times he had the 36-hole lead, but has won nine of the 19 times he was the 54-hole leader...The third-round leader has won this title eight of the last 13 years, but only 10 of 32 54- hole leaders have won on the PGA Tour this year.

Rapha Talk: Off the Record
A young Dean Downing riding at the track
Last night 30 of Rapha's top customers were treated to an intimate question and answer session with Rapha Condor pros, Dean Downing and Chris Newton plus team manager, John Herety. Cycling commentator David Harmon was there to field questions and ask a few of his own about life inside the peloton.
Held at the Covent Garden Hotel, the talk was a fascinating discussion including insights into Chris' first race as a 13 year old, Dean's long family history of bike racers, John Herety's exploits racing in the Eastern Bloc, being a lonely amateur in Belgium, the state of British cycling and lots of juicy stuff we can't mention here. There were also plenty of jibes and jokes, including ones about Mr. Herety's hair (or lack of).

An excellent evening, and a big thanks to everyone involved.
I was fascinated with the track cycling discussion, and the coordination involved. With the daily task of getting out of the house, with bag, keys and iPhone, without dropping something, I think I will stick with straight forward road cycling!

quick question, how are Rapha's 30 top customers identified?
Joe Hall
30th November 2009 05:05pm
Customers who we have had a longstanding relationship with, Rapha Condor Club members, former team riders and friends and partners. We couldn't offer tickets to everyone so decided to select a number of people we felt obliged to cater for. It was a Rapha event but with an obvious Rapha Condor team focus. Perhaps the word 'top' suggests exclusivity which is something we all sometimes enjoy.

Just doing a bit of back blogging. This is, Injury a label I first discovered on a blog years ago, and showed in a men's group show during Mercedes Fashion Week Australia this year. I was intrigued by the alternative dark aesthetic of the label. Back in 2010, I did an interview with designer of the label, Eugene Leung here. The Sydney-based label also has a huge Asian follow in their origins in Hong Kong. Although only showing the men's range at fashion week, they also do womenswear and most of the garments are quite androgynous anyway.
It was nice to visit their showroom to see the pieces they showed on the runway in person. The Spring/Summer 2013 range titled "Underneath" showcases a collection that encapsulates that idea. It's all about layers, where pieces can be added or removed either inside or out. Detail is one of those important things and for a person who appreciates fashion and design I particularly liked the interesting structures the label creates. Some include a removable inner vest that looks quite harness-skeletal like and lapels of blazers that could be slipped in to the jacket and some with sleeves that have drawstrings that allow it to be pulled up curving nicely with the arm and elbow. I liked their snake/pipe and broken glass prints they created for their label and even these have the concept of "underneath" with prints under prints. Of course I also loved the leather pieces. Felt a little Rick Owens.

Frozen shoulder
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/frozen-shoulder/DS00416
Frozen shoulder |
Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition characterized by stiffness and pain in your shoulder joint. Signs and symptoms typically begin gradually, worsen over time and then resolve, usually within one or two years.
Your risk of developing frozen shoulder increases if you're recovering from a medical condition or procedure that affects the mobility of your arm — such as a stroke or a mastectomy.
Treatment for frozen shoulder involves stretching exercises and, sometimes, the injection of corticosteroids and numbing medications into the joint capsule. In a small percentage of cases, surgery may be needed to loosen the joint capsule so that it can move more freely.
Frozen shoulder typically develops slowly, and in three stages. Each of these stages can last a number of months.
- Painful stage. During this stage, pain occurs with any movement of your shoulder, and your shoulder's range of motion starts to become limited.
- Frozen stage. Pain may begin to diminish during this stage. However, your shoulder becomes stiffer, and your range of motion decreases notably.
- Thawing stage. During the thawing stage, the range of motion in your shoulder begins to improve.
For some people, the pain worsens at night, sometimes disrupting normal sleep patterns.
Frozen shoulder |
The bones, ligaments and tendons that make up your shoulder joint are encased in a capsule of connective tissue. Frozen shoulder occurs when this capsule thickens and tightens around the shoulder joint, restricting its movement.
Doctors aren't sure why this happens to some people and not to others, although it's more likely to occur in people who have recently experienced prolonged immobilization of their shoulder, such as after surgery or an arm fracture.
Risk factors
Although the exact cause is unknown, certain factors may increase your risk of developing frozen shoulder.
Age and sex
People 40 and older are more likely to experience frozen shoulder. Most of the people who develop the condition are women.
Immobility or reduced mobility
People who have experienced prolonged immobility or reduced mobility of their shoulder are at higher risk of developing frozen shoulder. Immobility may be the result of many factors, including:
- Rotator cuff injury
- Broken arm
- Stroke
- Recovery from surgery
Systemic diseases
People who have certain medical problems appear to be predisposed to develop frozen shoulder. Examples include:
- Diabetes
- Overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism)
- Underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism)
- Cardiovascular disease
- Tuberculosis
- Parkinson's disease
Preparing for your appointment
While you may initially consult your family physician, he or she may refer you to a doctor who specializes in orthopedic medicine.
What you can do
Before your appointment, you may want to write a list that includes:
- Detailed descriptions of your symptoms
- Information about medical problems you've had
- Information about the medical problems of your parents or siblings
- All the medications and dietary supplements you take
- Questions you want to ask the doctor
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor may ask some of the following questions:
- When did your symptoms begin?
- Are there any activities that worsen your symptoms?
- Have you ever injured that shoulder? If so, how?
- Do you have diabetes?
- Have you had any recent surgeries or periods of restricted shoulder motion?
Tests and diagnosis
During the physical exam, your doctor may ask you to perform certain actions, to check for pain and evaluate your range of motion. These may include:
- Hands up. Raise both your hands straight up in the air, like a football referee calling a touchdown.
- Opposite shoulder. Reach across your chest to touch your opposite shoulder.
- Back scratch. Starting with the back of your hand against the small of your back, reach upward to touch your opposite shoulder blade.
Your doctor may also ask you to relax your muscles while he or she moves your arm for you. This test can help distinguish between frozen shoulder and a rotator cuff injury.
Frozen shoulder can usually be diagnosed from signs and symptoms alone. But your doctor may suggest imaging tests — such as X-rays or an MRI — to rule out other structural problems.
Treatments and drugs
Shoulder exercises |
Most frozen shoulder treatment involves controlling shoulder pain and preserving as much range of motion in the shoulder as possible.
Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as aspirin and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), can help reduce pain and inflammation associated with frozen shoulder. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe stronger pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory drugs.
A physical therapist can teach you stretching exercises to help maintain as much mobility in your shoulder as possible.
Surgical and other procedures
Most frozen shoulders get better on their own within 12 to 18 months. For persistent symptoms, your doctor may suggest:
- Steroid injections. Injecting corticosteroids into your shoulder joint may help decrease pain and improve shoulder mobility.
- Joint distension. Injecting sterile water into the joint capsule can help stretch the tissue and make it easier to move the joint.
- Shoulder manipulation. In this procedure, you receive a general anesthetic so you'll be unconscious and feel no pain. Then the doctor moves your shoulder joint in different directions, to help loosen the tightened tissue. Depending on the amount of force used, this procedure can cause bone fractures.
- Surgery. If nothing else has helped, you may be a candidate for surgery to remove scar tissue and adhesions from inside your shoulder joint. Doctors usually perform this surgery arthroscopically, with lighted, tubular instruments inserted through small incisions around your joint.
Lifestyle and home remedies
Continue to use the involved shoulder and extremity in as many daily life activities as possible within the limits of your pain and range-of-motion constraints. Applying heat or cold to your shoulder can help relieve pain.
Alternative medicine
Acupuncture is a procedure that has been used in China for thousands of years. It involves inserting extremely fine needles in your skin at specific points on your body. Typically, the needles remain in place for 15 to 40 minutes. During that time they may be moved or manipulated. Because the needles are hair thin and flexible and are generally inserted superficially, most acupuncture treatments are relatively painless.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)
A TENS unit delivers a tiny electrical current to key points on a nerve pathway. The current, delivered through electrodes taped to your skin, isn't painful or harmful. It's not known exactly how TENS works, but it's thought that it might stimulate the release of pain-inhibiting molecules (endorphins) or block pain fibers that carry pain impulses.
One of the most common causes of frozen shoulder is the immobility that may result during recovery from a shoulder injury, broken arm or a stroke. If you've had an injury that makes it difficult to move your shoulder, talk to your doctor about what exercises would be best to maintain the range of motion in your shoulder joint.

Belize For Families
Dolphins, Manatees, Sea Turtles & Snorkeling
Dolphin mother and calf, Turneffe/Dori Dick©
Join the Oceanic Society biologists and Belizean researchers for a family field study of Belizean wildlife including dolphins, manatees and sea turtles.
This exciting and educational summer program offers guided snorkeling forays into outstanding coral reef habitats to explore Belize's undersea wonders, and includes participation in Oceanic Society's dolphin research project and more. This program is geared for children 10 and over with at least one adult parent/chaperone.
Located on the Caribbean, just south of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, Belize is a small, English speaking country with an amazing variety of natural environments including the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, dense mangrove lagoons, and abundant interior pristine tropical forests.
The first half of the program is headquartered at the Blackbird-Oceanic Society Field Station on Blackbird Caye, Turneffe Atoll. The field station offers easy access to pristine coral reefs and is open to the public offering comfortable lodging in beachfront cabanas. The site serves as a base for the Society's research projects, and opportunities to meet with scientists and learn about research efforts are an additional benefit of the program.
Our program begins with a 90-minute boat ride from Belize City to Blackbird Caye at Turneffe Atoll. The atoll is exceptional for its warm shallow water, which permits easy access snorkeling to an extraordinary underwater paradise. Because of the distance from the mainland, the waters are clear and the reefs are relatively pristine.
The Turneffe Atoll serves as a feeding and resting area for dolphins and two days will be dedicated to accompanying the dolphin reseacher on dolphin surveys. Midweek we transfer by boat to St. George's Caye. The next two days are dedicated to observing manatees and studying sea turtles at Swallow Caye Manatee Sanctuary and the Drowned Caye Area. This site is known as a manatee resting and feeding ground and offer the best manatee watching opportunities in Belize. We will also accompany a Belizean sea turtle researcher studying hawksbill turtles.
A guide will accompany the group throughout the program, in addition to guest biologists and researchers.
Day 1:
U.S./Belize City/Blackbird Caye. You will be met at the Belize International Airport and tranfered to Belize City, and the marina, where a Blackbird-Oceanic Society Field Station boat will transfer you to Blackbird Caye (approximate 90 minute trip), in time for welcome dinner and trip briefing. Four nights in comfortable, beachfront cabanas.
Days 2 thru 5:
Blackbird Caye Field Station. Daily activities include morning and afternoon dolphin surveyes, and snorkeling excursions, then back for lunch in the palapa. Weather and other field factors will set our daily schedule but some of the themes will include: Natural history of community keystone animals; Marine life; Coral reefs and fish behavior, and Marine Mammals. The researcher will prepare us for the dolphin surveys and explain use of the various field equipment.
Days 6: Early morning transfer to Belize City and check in to your hotel. Day trip to the Swallow Caye Manatee Sanctuary and Belize's great barrier reef to observe manatees, sea turtles and to snorkel. Learn about manatees and hawksbill sea turtles from Belizean researches. Although our focus us manatee and sea turtle observation, there will be dedicated time for reef snorkeling.
Day 7: Morning transfer to the airport for your flight home.

Jen C & C's always welcome
Hi all, I promised myself I wouldn't do any more of these but since I do watch C Span, it's hard to not to express emotion on some of the anti society fools that try to eliminate laws that have helped this country since the days of FDR. this is on 11x14 140#cp using Shin Han Touch felt pens
Blue Ridge Mountains Art Center
Southern Appalachian Artists Guild
Jen I pulled some pictures of folks dancing as well as motion ideas if you want them let me know.
Bonnie; No I just used colored pencil. I don't remember what brand I used for Hay Good lookin' but I did pull out a coloor of paper that matched the color of the Sorrel horse. If you open it close up you can see where I didn't add any color, just used the paper.
Fred: I watch C-Span as well especially during upcoming major votes. I then look up the vote and find out WHO didn't vote. And who voted which way.... amazing.... I also pull up the bill and see what is buried in it that has nothing to do with what we think they are voting on. again amazing.... I wish we had line item veto....
Pastel Teachers' hands are usually chalk-full. (by Marsha Ross)
C & C Always Welcome
Hi all, Fun with pastels 6x8 on mat board
Fred, this one reminds me of the terrible fires we had here this summer as well as the one at Yosemite.... but pretty colors
Fred, Love these colour. It says Fall so well. How do you like the mat board with your pastels?
Marsha, Please send pictures I will see what I can do. I was awake in the night thinking about it not sure I can do it justice. Will have a go but might have to bin it!
Mz. Hallmark (aka as Jen) Your cards are coming along great hope you sell a ton.
C and C always welcomed
Fred I think your blue people are starting their Halloween pranks a little early this year.
Well here is the latest Halloween painting. It has all the grandkids in costumes that they wore at some time except for baby who actually was a tiny skeleton last year but I thought a ghost was easier! He isn't quite that big yet either but he will be! It may need a bit of a revise when I am at the studio next. The Owl looks a bit odd but I am not much of a bird person. I guess this is more cartoony than accurate! Probably needs to watch his tail fethers don't catch fire!
about 8x9 pastel.
Fred looks like a fun time at Oktoberfest e you have any even though it is still Sept. Did you have any paintings in the exhibition ?
Marsha, I love your example of the horses done on colored paper and the way you integrated the paper with the drawing.
Fred, I have CNN (as opposed to C-SPAN) on during the day when I'm doing consulting work, and get so frustrated at what I see happening in Congress, so your paintings are dear to my heart.
Jen, this pastel of all of the grandchildren is so charming. I just love the little red shoes that are peeping out from under the ghost costume and all the other touches. This series is wonderful and is a perfect complement to your style.
Comments and critiques are welcomed and appreciated.
Fred, you and Ruthie must have had such a good time at Ocktoberfest! I can just see the two of you as Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Your pastel of the bear going home in the forest ablaze with autumn colors is a perfect piece for this time of year - beautiful, vibrant colors.
Marsha, I blew up your painting and yes I can see how you chose the colour of your paper to fit the painting. I will have to keep that in mind next time. You did such a good job with this one. Thanks so much for the information, sorry I was away and didn't respond right away. However while away I did purchase some additional colours of the coloured pencils so need to try them out now. Thank you for your help.
Jen, wonderful new painting of your grandchildren in the Halloween scene. All the different colours and costumes really looks like a Halloween night of tricking and treating. Also, great info about the cards. I will have to give it a try. I don't have the full photo shop but have a limited one and will see if I can figure it out. It would be good to have some cards made up for events as you mentioned. I appreciate your helpful instructions.
Fred, I see you attended Octoberfest at the same time as ours was held and the art gallery looks very nice. Your new fun pastel painting has wonderful fall colours. Our leaves have hardly started to change yet, it seems to be very late this year, maybe because we have had so much rain this year although I thought it was supposed to be due to the daylight hours.
Bonnie C & C most welcome / appreciated
Hi all, Now back to the Saturn moon Europa, Bennie and Ruthie are unable to find life so far but they discover a cave with crude sculptures guarding the entrance. They assume that the sculptures were created by living intelligent beings and prepare to enter the brightly illuminated cave. 11x14 Mixed
Fred, this is wonderful. Beautiful terrain, and a very dramatic brilliantly-lit cave entrance backlighting Bennie and Ruthie. Best of all, it's another mystery that has us on the edge of our seats.

A Night to Tweet About: AGT 7 Auditions — San Francisco Edition
It was another night of sometimes talented, sometimes disturbing, and sometimes just plain confusing acts on AGT. There was a lot of activity on Twitter, and I had a lot of fun interacting with other fans around the country. So once again, here's some of my thoughts from throughout the night.
Last night, after the premiere, my husband looked up an act he was shown awhile back from Ukraine's Got Talent. Check it out here. Pretty incredible right? Anyways, he mentioned to me that he would love to see something like that on this season. And he got his wish. I really enjoyed the sand art act, especially with the music it was set to.
'Nuff said. I had a feeling it wasn't going to be an impressive act, but I believe in giving everyone a fair chance. I'm glad that Nick came out and helped her have a "second chance." Hopefully that eased the blow of totally blowing an audition on national television.
Did anyone else's heart drop when the juggler dropped his pins? I would beat myself up about that forever. I'm glad they let him through, though I don't he'll make it very far.
Just like Howard Stern, opera isn't necessarily my cup of tea. But I really did find this guy to be incredible. Even if I wouldn't ever listen to opera for fun, I really liked him.
Was anyone else absolutely shocked by this act? I thought Granny G was going to go out there and sing a song from something like My Fair Lady. Definitely NOT. But I suppose with a name like Granny G, I should have been expecting it. It was pretty hilarious, and I'm all about fulfilling your dreams, even in the latter years of life. More power to her.
"Kotton Kandy" was definitely a character, and I have no doubt that he has a successful street performing career. I liked his attitude though. We could all do to have a little more confidence like him.
I love all the one-liners that come from the judges. This was one of my favorites of the night.
Tim Hockenberry was one of my favorites of the night. I could tell from his pre-story that he was going to be good. He reminded me a bit of Louis Armstrong. I love that he has overcome his past (and was his child not the cutest little baby?!)
I don't remember exactly what the name of the band was, but they sang "Toxic" by Brittany Spears. For one thing – I hate that song. But not as much as I disliked this girl's voice. Please explain to me why she got through?
This guy is why I watch the show. I hope he does well. His contortionist moves were a bit disturbing, but cool nonetheless. The judges were right on with all their comments. Alonzo really seemed genuine, and I do hope he goes far. It sounds like he has had a very, very tough life.
Well, that's it for tonight. What was your favorite act?

Insurance is another story.
Posted 14 August 2010 - 08:51 PM
As some of you know from previous threads of mine, I'm looking to put some bolt on flares on the Gem, most probably painted black.
I've looked and looked and looked for decent flares and it's next to impossible to find any, so I think I'm going to end up with ZG flares, or perhaps BAMF Superwide ZG flares.
Regular: http://classicdatsun...lares_inst.html
BAMF: http://www.zforcepro... ... &Itemid=60
Which would you use? Obviously the BAMF ones allow for wider wheels or a deeper offset but the rears appear to not come down as far at the tips. Now, the reason these look so good (I reckon) on the Z is that the tips line up with the bumpers which are rather elongated, and the upper sill/line running between the arches. My car has neither bumpers that will reach in that far, nor this line, meaning that they will just stop at a point on the arch without real aesthetic reason. What I would really like to do is have the flares custom made so they come right down to the bottom of the arch, but I can't see that happening, far too expensive and I wouldn't know where to start.
So yes, the question is really: Do you think this will look good, and if so, which flares should I go for, ZG or superwide ZG? (Or others if you can suggest)
Flares mean new wheels.
Now I think this looks staunch as fuck with the dark wheels and the poke. Perhaps because the flares are body coloured they don't look as wack while not following the lines. I would love to replicate this look.
Now the wheel choice. 1. Konig Bbombs in 15x7.5 0 offset, opel colour. 2. Diamond Racing steelies in what 15x7/8/9 with the triangle cutouts, black an perhaps coloured centres.
(except obviously not a Civic or in those colours).
What you cats think? I need to start trying to make a decision. Am sick of no dish. Can't add more dish without widening the guards. Any other ideas...
Posted 17 October 2010 - 07:17 PM
Tried both flares on as I don't know which are supposed to be right and left. None are sitting perfect, but they give an idea of how they could fit, size wise, etc. It's hard to get them sitting perfect with tape on a dirty car, especially when they are flexing quite a bit.
Rear flare 1
Rear flare 2
Front flare 1
Rear flare 2 & Front flare 1
Front flare 2
Rear flare 2 & Front flare 2
Main issue is that the flares are not circular, more like a slight koru because on the Z the align with the bumper and run down lower on the inside of the arch. This also means that the widest point of the flare isn't always the middle of it, it is where it would sit in the middle of the Z wheel arch, it's most obvious on the front one: flare 1 with the buldge near the back, flare 2 with it at the front. Maybe when they are black it will be less noticable?
Also, I may be able to cut and shut them instead of bending them, but that could be a mission.

Posted 17 November 2010 - 03:47 PM
Replaced a tierod end. Tightened up both front wheel bearings. Just need to do that axle seal for the WOF.
A mate gave me some black faux leather so I redid my door cards as I was getting sick of the blue extreme.
Next week I'll be swapping my EA Falcon rear discs and calipers for AE101 discs and calipers, brakets are all made up and ready to go. This should pull my track in a little bit allowing for wider, less offset wheels with the flares.
(EA calipers and discs + mounting brackets to suit a Hilux diff will be for sale after this. Recently rekitted. Discs drilled to 4x100 but could easily redrill/get new ones).

Posted 23 November 2010 - 03:46 PM
Basically the "stance" I'm going for here in terms of offset, tyres, gap between wheel arch and tyre.

New place with carbon kevlar + clamping pressure uprated from 1280lb to 2130lb. Should be mean.

Posted 22 July 2011 - 06:42 PM
I'm out of work, lazing about at home and cam(slacker) encouraged me to go outside and do some work on the car.
Rotated the compressor of the churbro to start an engine bay tidy up and started figuring out how to mount the Chevette bumpers.
It's a bit crooked (I need to slot the side mounts) and the middle mounts aren't long enough to bolt up so will have to tend to that soon.
Posted 06 October 2011 - 09:35 AM
Now to clean them up. Any suggestions on a centre colour to match the yellow of the coupe?
In other news, massive thanks to Cam (.slacker) for his help in cleaning up the wiring. Managed to get rid of 4 redundant relays and some good progress towards moving some wiring under the wheel arch Cheers boy!
Posted 06 October 2011 - 11:18 AM
The fronts are about 1-2mm outside the guards. The rears will need a 3-5mm spacer to be flush with the fronts.
I see what you mean Brad about the increase in gap and stuff, look at that pic I'm not sure the rear will be low enough at this current level (although the height of the wood was not calculated in any way). Will have to take out the spacers and see what the difference is.
There is a 15mm sidewall difference between 196/50 and 165/50 without taking account for the stretch inwards which will increase that even more. Between 195/50 and 175/50 it's 10mm.

Lips have been polished, all the bolts have been replated, centres have been stripped and repainted in gunmetal - huge thanks to Levi (LS 2 THE DEEE) for painting them for me.
I haven't put them all back together yet, but here is the first one mostly done:

Diphenhydr Amine FAQ
In This Section:
- Are there any long-term side effects from using diphenhydramine as a sleep aid?
- Is it safe to keep taking Nytol to help me sleep? I get spasms in my legs not long after I've taken it.
- Can diphenhydramine cause loss of taste and smell? Will those senses return after discontinuing use of diphenhydramine and how long will it take? I have discontinued use for about 3 months.
Are there any long-term side effects from using diphenhydramine as a sleep aid?
A: Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) is a first generation antihistamine mainly used to treat allergies. Like most other first generation antihistamines, the drug also has a powerful sedation effect, and for this reason is often used as a non-prescription sleep aid. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends 25 mg and no more than 50 mg as a night time dose. Caution should be taken not to mix two medications containing diphenhydramine (for example, Unisom and Tylenol PM). I find no documented reports of long-term side effects, however, diphenhydramine is not intended for long term use. If you have difficulty sleeping for greater than two weeks, it is important to consult your health care provider to discuss other treatment options. For any immediate concerns, consult your physician. Joseph Hall Back to Top -
Is it safe to keep taking Nytol to help me sleep? I get spasms in my legs not long after I've taken it.
A: Nytol (diphenhydramine) is an antihistamine. Diphenhydraminewhich is used to treat cold and allergy symptoms including runny nose and watery eyes, but also causes drowsiness as a side effect and is in over-the-counter sleep aids as well. According to the available drug information, spasms in the legs were not a reported side effect associated with diphenhydramine. If you have been experiencing spasms in your legs, consult with your doctor for proper evaluation, diagnosis of the underlying cause and possible treatment options. Some of the common side effects of Nytol may include sleepiness, fatigue, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, difficulty urinating, or enlarged prostate in men. This is not a complete list of the side effects associated with Nytol. For more specific information, consult with your doctor or pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action.

It is mind boggling with the people of Long Island Staten Island and new Jersey Shore -- going through.
Absolutely Brian Austin the first floor on his house we're gonna show some of the pictures here about five minutes.
Some of the stuff is no brainer if you've got in church you know that you should file a claim contact your agent.
You know if you can find the guys -- the gals a phone number that's important acutely because some things if people have damage for instance they they get a tree it.
Without poke a hole in the roof get the tree off -- up through figure can't and then put a TARP on the right try to protect yourself.
Absolutely the first thing you should do is take pictures or video if you can find your cell phone.
To document because it makes the claims process go quicker but yes.
Our repair anything that you can do that will cause more damage later on if you have a hole in your roof put a TARP -- -- So if it rains again you don't have more damage make sure you keep your receipts.
You're going to be reimbursed for those expenses and you want the claims process to go as quickly as possible.
Bob I'm gonna -- note to the director Brian Kilmeade has a question for Bob go ahead and ask him.
I'd just say what is the deal Bob can you throw a lot appliances it clearly are damaging compromise.
Can you throw out couch is and that are are a mess and chairs furniture.
Yes and that -- before you do anything.
Make sure you get your claims adjuster on the site that claims adjuster will tell you what you can do and can't do those don't do -- what's not covered so we don't know what -- don't do it.
-- you should not do it however use common sense for instance if your sofa is soaking wet.
-- it move it outside to replace -- can dry out that's fine but don't throw out a way make sure you keep in keep pictures of it as well.
Right but -- unfortunate is looting going on with that so a lot of times you leave it out you know seeing the house has gone the next day.
Will they be understandable -- that.
Yes I gotta tell you -- that insurance claims adjusters have our our pros at this kinda stuff if they can get to the property and that's one of the things that people have to understand.
Is that many times the police or bridges or roads are washed out the adjusters can't get on site.
But generally they are very understanding of the situation they've seen this before in the work with him.
-- Bob -- one final point and it Brian was lucky enough he did have flood insurance but a lot of people think well I've got homeowner's insurance surely this is gonna cover me.
For that stuff that we're looking at right now not necessarily right.
That's right -- a Smart.
And under what what is your life.
Street -- well I actually obviously but one of the problems is that a lot of homeowners do not take flood insurance.
The average flood insurance policy nationwide is just around 600 dollars.
But the general homeowners policy does not include flood damage.
So anybody that had flood damage in your house from sandy.
If you don't have it it you -- are covered for so you've got to look at the Small Business Administration FEMA government agencies for low interest loans.
And just one quick exit question Bob and that is if your car is damaged by the rising floodwaters are you automatically covered.
If you have comprehensive coverage remember there's collision comprehension and liability.
If you have comprehensive cup coverage if -- covered 76%.
Of all Americans have comprehensive coverage of so most Americans will be covered for that damage all right public got lots questions thanks for joining us tonight good to be with you Steve -- straight ahead.
