(American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition)Onomatopoeic. (Wiktionary)
1833 Blackwood's Edinb. Mag. Mar. 306/2 There was no ping pinging of the shot overhead.
That's how I first heard the word too, uselessness.
I'm pretty sure the word originally comes from naval jargon. A ping is a sound emitted by a ship to find submarines via echolocation, I think.
A program which sends a message from one computer to another to verify they are connected. In programming jargon, it has extended to all sorts of things. Such as, we're about to leave for lunch, why don't you ping John at his desk and see if he wants to come.

text: You can't get any scarier than a Jason Voorhees Animated Life Size prop. This 6.5-foot tall prop comes with audio and AC adapter. A figure wearing Jason's signature hockey mask, dirty shirt, jacket and pants and holding a machete is frightening enough. But it doesn't end there. The audio plays the well-known ki-ki-ki sounds from the soundtrack of the classic Friday the Thirteenth horror films, then Jason's body swings around and he lifts up his machete. He is so lifelike that even his eyes move. In the film franchise, Jason is a boy who drowns at summer camp because of staff's negligence. Jason is either the killer or the motivation for the killer in all the movies. If you want to have a truly frightening haunted house, then Jason must be there.

OverviewWe worked with representatives from local city, county, regional and state agencies to develop a route development plan for SR 164 between the cities of Auburn and Enumclaw. The plan includes a list of recommended projects that address safety and congestion issues along the corridor. SR 164 RDP Executive Summary (pdf 1.6 mb)SR 164 RDP Chapter 2 (pdf 2.6 mb)SR 164 RDP Chapter 3 (pdf 3.2 mb)SR 164 RDP Chapter 4 (pdf 1.8 mb)SR 164 RDP Chapters 5 & 6 (pdf 1.2 mb)SR 164 RDP Appendices (pdf 4.1 mb)How Much Will the Improvements Cost? Many of the improvements recommended in the SR 164 route development plan project list have not been considered in sufficient detail to allow for development of a usable cost estimate. Even before accounting for inflation, the total cost of the projects (if they were built today) would be well in excess of $200 million dollars. Under the current highway improvement budget, we would be able to build very few if any of the identified projects in the foreseeable future.
Partnerships & Cooperation This study represents a shared plan between WSDOT and local partners. We sought input from local communities to learn more about the safety and mobility problems they are encountering and to document their ideas for solutions. We also worked with a corridor working group made up of representatives from the following local cities, counties, agencies, groups and organizations: Cities: Auburn and Enumclaw Counties: King Organizations and groups: Muckleshoot Tribe and Puget Sound Regional Council

Superintendent Terry N. Fralick knows whom he will recommend to the Board of Education to pilot Watertown High School for a year.
He will ask that former Pulaski High School Principal Joseph M. McGrath serve as the high schools interim principal while a bigger pool of candidates is sought to succeed Principal Lloyd L. Peck, who resigned in June.
I plan to recommend Mr. McGrath to the position of principal at Watertown High School pending permission from the commissioner to approve a waiver in order for retirees under 65 to receive more than $30,000 a year, Mr. Fralick said.
Mr. McGrath retired from the Pulaski Academy and Central School District in June 2011. Mr. Fralick noted his choice candidate was Pulaskis principal and guidance counselor for 30 years, so he has a lot of experience with high school students.
Mr. Fralick said he did not plan to announce his choice for the interim principal because the district has been dealing with the paperwork of getting Mr. McGrath to work in the district for a year. He will address it with the Board of Education at its Aug. 7 meeting.
Its been a long process working with the state Education Department, he said.
Once the district starts looking for a permanent principal, Mr. Fralick said, the administration, faculty and community will be involved in the search.
Were going to make this as transparent as possible, he said. I think it gives us an opportunity to look up a tenure-track principal during the school year. Quite honestly, Mr. Pecks official resignation wasnt until the early part of June. That didnt give us enough time to look for a principal.
Mr. Peck served two years as the principal. He was announced as the new Chenango Forks Central School District superintendent in late April and was scheduled to begin working there July 1.
In addition to the short amount of turnaround time from June to August, the district has been wrapped up with new teacher and principal evaluations. Mr. Fralick said he felt there was no time to do a high-quality principal search.
Theres only so much time during the summer, he said. I dont want to rush into it.

David Van Tieghem x Ten: Fits & Starts
For the tenth installment in RVNG?s FRWKYS series, an inanimate bulletin board becomes an instrument and the core of the collaboration. NYC composer and percussionist David Van Tieghem reassembles his own live performances as reimagined by a vanguard of ten musicians over two sides of audio collaging at its most expressive and experimental.
Gardland: Syndrome Syndrome
Syndrome Syndrome, the debut album from Gardland, fuses human flaw and scattershot intuition with volatile machinery and chance-based composition. The double LP explores the rugged tropes of wasted ?outsider? techno while exhibiting a stark emotive core, eliciting timbral intensity and questing pathos in equal measure. Imposing and muscular yet marked by frenetic finesse, Syndrome Syndrome is born from a dyslexic dialogue between man and machine.
Blondes: Swisher
Swisher is a bold expansion of Blondes' recorded repertoire, evolved from the past couple years of reinventing their sound for intense club atmospheres. A dark, meticulous production with a distinct percussive focus, Blondes second album exhibits the duo's infatuation with techno in immersive sound environments.
Stellar Om Source: Joy One Mile
Stellar OM Source?s new album, Joy One Mile, marks a certain and spirited departure into worlds unknown. A faithful leap into the infinite beat, Joy One Mile is the most forward-reaching effort by Stellar OM Source yet. Stellar OM Source originated from Christelle Gualdi?s desire to unhinge from her academic musical upbringing. A double bassist in the Konigin Katharina Stift Schulorchester and a student of music theory at Université Paris VIII, Gualdi completed her studies in electro-acoustic composition at the Conservatoire de Paris after earning an architecture degree.
The process of Gualdi?s ?unlearning? began in experimental ensemble settings, and it became more recognizable as she moved toward solo performance. Stellar OM Source?s name is fittingly inspired in part by the pathway to higher consciousness and cosmos via one?s own voice. Gualdi was also inspired by?and also an integral member of?the late aughts DIY synthesizer community. Alongside Oneohtrix Point Never, Emeralds and James Ferraro, Stellar OM Source?s stream of self-released CDRs defined a zeitgeist of artists trending away from their noisy roots via polyphonic escapism.
Stellar Om Source: Elite Excel 12"
"Elite Excel" is the first listen to Stellar Om Source?s new album Joy One Mile. Furthering her sound further from the formless soundscapes of her earlier work by digging up the roots of NYC electro and Detroit techno, Christelle Gualdi's version of dance music remains unpredictable and inventive. Featuring a top-notch remix by recluse producer Kassem Mosse.
Secret Circuit: Tactile Galactics
Delivered from its celestial womb to the human world for inevitable elevation, Tactile Galactics is the new album by Secret Circuit, the experimental dance music moniker and cosmic interface for Los Angeles artist Eddie Ruscha Jr.
Maxmillion Dunbar: House of Woo
House of Woo is the new album from Maxmillion Dunbar, rogue house producer and one half of DC dance captains Beautiful Swimmers. House of Woo is a pure blast of bliss that works on a Funktion One just as well as it does a blown set of speakers at a house party gone woozy with punch drunk love.
Holly Herndon: Movement
Holly Herndon?s debut collection of material hybridizes experimental and dance music into hard-coded human sensuality. Incorporating themes of presence and physicality / flux and futurity within said musical expressions via Herndon?s unapologetic use of computer as her primary instrument, Movement translates the Avant-Garde into what Herndon fundamentally considers ?life practice.? The influences of Maryanne Amacher and Galina Ustvolskaya are as prevalent in Herndon?s music as Pan Sonic and Berlin and Birmingham 90s techno. Still, in line with pop deconstructionists Laurie Anderson and Art of Noise, Movement is purposefully positioned to reach new ears beyond a niche.
Sensations' Fix: Music Is Painting In the Air (1974 - 1977)
Essential collection of new mixes and unreleased material from Sensations? Fix, the cosmically conscious, defiantly DIY enterprise of Franco Falsini and his band of psychedelic renegades.

For the ninth volume of FRKWYS, a music and film series pairing contemporary artists with those that may have preceded them in style and / or approach, Sun Araw and M. Geddes Gengras meet The Congos in Jamaica.
Julia Holter: Ekstasis
Julia Holter's second album, Ekstasis, is a collection of songs written and recorded across the span of three years in Los Angeles, California. Ekstasis marks a return to the playful searching of her 2007 Eating the Stars EP, but guided by newly-learned disciplines, slightly better technology, and nearly limitless home recording time. Holter's songwriting stems from a mythological reverence of that which is incomprehensibly beautiful. Stars was a first attempt at musically transcribing this beauty, while discovering the honest enjoyment of unadulterated creativity. Holter's critically acclaimed debut album Tragedy (Leaving Records, 2011) embraced Stars strains of shimmer, but used sparser textures in a narrative context. While Ekstasis reflects the conventions of her classical training, the album is also uncannily, if unknowingly, poppy. Holter's approach to crafting the songs of Ekstasis centered around what she describes as, "open ear decision: what seemed to sound best for that moment." This blindness to reverence unintentionally steers Ekstasis along the experimental pop spectrum most commonly associated to New York's Downtown music micro-universe of the 80s, specifically the works of Laurie Anderson and Arthur Russell.

Secret Circuit: Nebula Sphynx b/w Parascopic Rope
The debut 12" by electronic diviner Secret Circuit - aka Eddie Ruscha (also of Laughing Light of Plenty & Food of the Gods) - is now the physical property of earth's people. The two tracks contained herein traveled across distant seas & sands in search of an altar from which to radiate, finally landing in the lap of Beats In Space for the label's second ever release.
On "Nebula Sphynx" analog synths & sequencers burn deep like a tincture of jack house and ham-fisted experimental attack music. The track features special guest circuit Cole MGN (The Samps, Nite Jewel), who gives the "Sphynx" an extra crispy, cosmic crunch. Ruscha keeps the meters peaking on "Parascopic Rope" with randy drum machine blasts and Casio SK-wanderings. WARNING: Portals to astral planes may suddenly appear between speakers while spinning this side.
Each 12" from Beats in Space features original artwork in considerate & serial form. BIS002 12" features artwork by CF (aka - Providence-based artist Christopher Forgues), purveyor of the Powr Mastrs comic book epic and a finely-tweaked & tuned in dude. The 12" packaging constructed by Will Work For Good features a removable vinyl BIS logo cling. The 12" will be available on February 7th, 2012 from fine retailers worldwide. The digital version will be available February 21st, 2012 from the drab internet universe.

Web Marketing: Search Engine Savvy
Use SEO and SEM to fine tune your website for effective Web marketing
George the printer used to have it so easy. Before the days of the Internet craze, he had about five ways to convince customers to come knocking at his door. Direct mail, print ads, Yellow Pages, radio, and TV—that was about all he had to choose from (maybe a billboard here or there). Now, his options have exploded.
Take these five traditional marketing routes; the present day choices from this group alone are confounding. Will George choose a print ad in the Daily Sun or an online banner ad on dailysun.com? Maybe he'll be their featured "weather sponsor" online or off. Will the Sun ask George to be a guest columnist or would a guest blogger be a better fit? Compound this by the mammoth beast called "new media" (social media sites like Facebook, website ads, search engine advertising on sites like Google, etc.) and you've got quite a mess on your hands.
With all of these options, how on earth will printing prospects know where to look to find George? Even more importantly, how will George know which of these marketing vehicles will get his print shop noticed most? And what about those people who are going to turn a blind eye to all of this and conduct a simple search online to find their printer of choice?
My advice to George would be to stop, take a deep breath, and then keep it simple. There are certain traditional truths when it comes to driving business to a printshop door. Don't forget these, no matter how many bright, shiny new media options appear.
- Don't ever stop direct mail. George is a printer; he needs to show off his wares. If George doesn't use direct mail in his marketing, he might as well say he's not confident in the cost or effectiveness of his product.
- Check in with the inbox. Email marketing is an excellent follow up tool. After George sends out a direct mail piece, he could follow up with an inexpensive but professionally produced email.
- Perk it up with PR, both offline in the form of sponsorships, speaking engagements, and press releases and online on social media sites like LinkedIn and Facebook.
Those three simple steps are truly all it takes for the offline world to learn about your business. If he's consistent with his efforts in those areas, George will likely see more traffic before he knows it.
But now let's talk about those people who start their search for a printer online. Maybe they haven't received (or noticed) these offline efforts and prefer to seek out their printer online. If you think there's lots of competition to get your business noticed off the computer, online is a whole other ballgame. And the struggle for "first place" is even more challenging—but it is doable. Welcome to the world of search engine services.
The 'O' and the 'M'
There are two pieces to the search engine services puzzle: search engine optimization (SEO) and search engine marketing (SEM). SEO uses tactics to increase ranking on a search engine site like Google or Yahoo. Tactics include, but are by no means limited to, adding keywords to a website, linking to and from other sites, and beefing up the mention of your company name in other online arenas (such as on those social media sites we've talked about before). The goal is to catch the attention of what they call a "search engine spider," which raises rank on a search engine. If George has the time and the know-how to keep his SEO work in-house, this route will cost him little to nothing.
Search engine marketing (SEM) is paid advertising. George could pay for georgesprinting.com to appear on page one of Google when someone searches for "business cards," if he was so inclined. We've all seen those listings that come up on the top or the side of a search engine site in a separate "paid advertisements" box when we search for something—that's SEM. Generally, search engine marketing is a "pay per click" service. Your account is charged each time someone clicks on your paid link.

By Mike Snider, USA TODAY
USA Today -- Few companies foment new-product fervor like Apple does.
Over the past five years, consumers have enthusiastically lined up for the chance to plunk down hundreds of dollars on new iPhones and iPads. With the new iPhone 5 expected to be unveiled Wednesday at Apple's announced event, that familiar rumble has again begun to crescendo.
Retail releases of iPhones and iPads have become events akin to New Year's Eve for devoted fans. "There is this phenomenal mystique that surrounds (the iPhone) that you don't see with the Motorola or Nokia phones, and you are probably not even going to see it with the Kindle," says Richard Doherty of The Envisioneering Group. "The Kindle's fanfare will be a brown box arriving in the next couple of weeks. It doesn't have sizzle or an emotional punch to it."
Apple grooms its new products for adoration; each is embedded with the DNA of late company co-founder Steve Jobs. "Thirty years ago, he wanted to make easy-to-use computing devices for ordinary people," says Leander Kahney, editor and publisher of CultofMac.com. "It's come into fruition now."
Breaking down the Apple aura:
•The look. Rather than scream sophistication, the sleek iPhone embodies eye-pleasing simpleness. That design strategy harks back to the Apple II personal computer, released in 1977. At that time, when PCs "all looked like some engineer's idea of what a computer should be," Doherty says, "the Apple II looked friendly. The brain is drawn toward (it)."
•The feel. That spell is unbroken when users interact with the device. "It is easy to use and intuitive," Kahney says. "If you get a new iPhone, it asks you for your Apple ID. You connect it to your Wi-Fi network. You get a couple more screens and it downloads all your data from iCloud. Everything is set up. It's just so much easier. Other devices, such as setting up a new PC, that's a two-week headache."
•The features. That ease-of-use factor flows through the Apple ecosystem. "Apple expertly combines elegant hardware designs with user-friendly software and compelling services," says Neil Mawston of Strategy Analytics. The touchscreen-driven software of the iPhone and iPad "offered a different way to use devices beyond mice and keyboards," he says.
Detractors may criticize Apple products for not always pushing the technological envelope -More battery life please!- and forcing its interface on users. "You can't get under the hood (and) bend it to your will like you can an Android phone," Kahney says. "The ones who like (Android) hate Apple for that."
Competitor Samsung has made inroads with snazzy phones such as the Galaxy S III, of which consumers snapped up 20 million in just over three months. Apple recently asked a court to include that device among those that infringe on its patents in the wake of a $1 billion court victory over Samsung.
And there's some concern that last year's passing of Jobs could dull Apple's aura. "It can never be like it was, but hopefully it can still be very good," says Ken Segall, author of Insanely Simple: The Obsession That Drives Apple's Success.
The company has "a lot of smart people who like to not have to hassle with their technology," he says. "It should be right there at your fingertips (and) you should lust after its design and simplicity."

Question about 'starting from scratch'
Just curious- when I see talk on here about throwing out lists and starting from scratch, I wonder how it really works. Is it possible for you to really toss out your favorite names or is it more of a clear everything out then see what you still want to keep kind of thing? Trying to figure out if I'm weird or what because I think if I deleted/ tossed all my lists, I'd just remake them all with the same names.

I've done this. Not in naming an actual child, but just in making a list of favorite names. I have my list, I like all the names, but I realize that that's all there is to it. I only like them.
I recently did it with my boy's list. My top names went from being Torrin, Jacob, and Oliver to Dashiel, Hector, and Matthias. The whole list got a stylistic reset, and while some names are the same, for the most part it's all different. Similarly, my girl's list has gone from names like Eliette and Annalie, to Rosalia and Annika, to Helena and Valentine. If I'd insisted on keeping my lists over the years, my style would never have morphed, I'd just be repeating the same names over and over again.
The problem with making name lists is you get stuck in a box. Especially when you're trying to narrow it down, not expand it. I think that a lot of people get down to a few names from their list, and realize that the reason they can't decide between them is because they were never the right names in the first place. So starting from scratch isn't really throwing out favorite names, it's more like freeing yourself to find other options.I'm just trying to behave as I think a friend should behave. Granted, I haven't had much practice.

When I start from scratch, I usually omit my top 10 (or so) and see what else appeals to me when those aren't options. Generally, I'll make separate lists for a while (Spanish, Catalan, French, Basque, etc) until I have favourites from each becoming overall favourites instead.
If some of my top 10 just can not stay away, I think it's fair to reintroduce them.
When it comes to needing to compromise, then what I'd personally do is have my SO write out a list of like, 30 names minimum that he likes/ loves and see what I'd have to work with.Lucia
Atlas, Bruno, Edmund, Fabien, Joscelin, Marius, Aitzol, Amets, Ekhi, Gorka, Imanol, Liher

August 5th, 2013 04:02 PM #7
When I start over, I throw out any names on my list that are guilty pleasures I'd never use, names I don't LOVE, and names my SO didn't agree with. That gives me very few to go on. I add new names that are similar from there. (:
It's not exactly starting from scratch, but it's pretty close.

My process is similar to balloonsforellie's-- I have days when I suddenly realize that half my list isn't doing it for me anymore, so I delete 10-20 names from my long list, shift a few more from long to short, and go in search of new name loves. My top two for each gender usually stay the same, though. Usually.
I also have a "Considering" list of names that are orbiting my favorites, which I mull over and revisit to decide which names are worthy of my long list and which aren't.Gwen: Film student, bookworm, and bad influence.

You are here: Home » Beef, Steaks, Burgers » Rockstar 4th of July Grilling Menu: Sliders, Grilled Potato Salad, Grilled Poundcake and Cocktails
4th of July is here and that means it's time to break out the charcoal and fire up your grill. Why not think outside of the traditional grilling box and stir things up a bit with ramped up sliders, grilled potato salad and even cocktails and dessert on the grill. This 4th of July Menu will make you look like the grilling rock star you really are!
Preheat grill to medium heat (about 350 degrees). Mix the meat with the olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Start with a small ball of meat, (about 1/4 cup or so) and flatten into a disc.
Put sliders on direct heat on and grill for three minutes each side. Once the slider has been flipped to the second side, add blue cheese to each one. After three minutes, check that the sliders have reached an internal temp of at least 160 degrees Fahrenheit. Cook the sliders according to the doneness you like your beef burgers- rare, medium, etc. Add buns to grill on the upper tray (gas) or on indirect heat for charcoal to slightly toast them.
Once the sliders have been taken off the grill, "tent" them in foil for 5 minutes so the juices have time to redistribute and make a super juicy burger!
Top with mayo, arugula and the Balsamic Red Onions that can be made beforehand.
Balsamic Red Onion Reduction
Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan, add the balsamic and then add the onions. Sautee until caramelized and wilted. Serve hot or cold on the burgers. These are super easy and are also great on pizzas and salads.
Grilled Red Pepper Potato Salad
July 4th weekend is here so don't ruin your cookout with store-bought potato salad! While homemade potato salad can be a lot of work, this recipe will redeem the work put into it as it's literally bursting with flavor and isn't as high in calories as a traditional mayo based version. The grilled peppers and basil in this recipe add great visual pop to this dish that will play a starring role next to your burgers this weekend. This recipe will make you look like a rockstar and you don't have to feel guilty about eating it!
Ingredients: (this will make enough for at least 8 servings)
Dressing Ingredients:
balsamic vinegar
Boil potatoes until they are tender enough to be pierced with a fork (about 20-30 minutes).
Meanwhile, preheat your grill to medium hight heat (350-400 degrees). Drain the potatoes and slice them in 1/4" pieces. Lightly coat them in olive oil. Grill the potatoes, peppers and scallions until nice charmarks form. There will be a lot of potatoes to grill so I suggest doing them in batches. I did the veggies first and then did the potatoes.
Next, combine all the dressing ingredients with an immersion blender or food processor.
Chop the potatoes into smaller pieces and put in a large bowl. Discard the stems and slice the peppers and scallions and put into the bowl.
Add the dressing to the potato/veggie mixture and stir until uniformly mixed. Add the chopped basil and generous sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Can also be served warm after it has been made.
**(recipe courtesy of Marcus Wang, senior scientist for Kingsford Charcoal)
makes one 64 oz pitcher
1) Dip each half of the cut lemons in sugar and set aside on a tray to be grilled.
2) Combine water, sugar and honey in a saucepan or disposable aluminum tray. Add a couple of sprigs of rosemary to the pan (this is optional but adds a unique touch!)
3) Heat up your grill to medium-high heat. For additional rosemary flavor, throw a handful of rosemary sprigs on the hot coals just before grilling.
4) Grill the lemons cut-side down until nice grill marks appear (5-7 minutes). Remove the lemons and set aside to cool.
5) While grilling the lemons, place the saucepan with the honey syrup on the grill. Heat the syrup until sugar and honey are fully dissolved giving the rosemary time to infuse the syrup with flavor.
6) Let the lemons cool then squeeze the juice into a pitcher by hand. Add syrup and water to taste, along with bourbon and ice. Stir well and serve.
Grill pound cake slices and pineapple rings on medium direct heat (about 350 degrees) until char marks form, being careful not to burn the pound cake. For a very hot grill, use indirect heat so as not to burn the cake.
Serve with ice cream or gelato!

I have GOT to try your potato salad recipe. Just gotta gotta.
I hope you and Scott are 1/3rd the way into a rocking holiday weekend!
looks like a fine menu Robyn – never thought about grilling cake or lemonade – you're so clever.
I almost chewed up my screen just looking at the picture and recipe for grilled pound cake! WOOOOWWWW!

Hugo needs to find the key in order to unlock the secret he believes the automaton contains. On his adventures, he meets with a shopkeeper, George Melies, who works in the train station toy shop, and his adventure-seeking god-daughter.

Sadly right after that concert I came home and was ready to write a review about it on here (April 2010) and then my dad took me to a casino to see my favorite local band (Crawpuppies) whom I haven't seen live since because it's hard to follow E&L..
I never really made the connection before, but I was listening to "Gloria" the other day and Van Morrison in his days with Them sounds eerily similar to Mick Jagger. Put Mick's vocals on "Gloria" and I think it would sound pretty close to what it sounds like with Van singing it. When I just listened to "Brown Eyed Girl", but you can still hear Jagger's influence in Morrison's voice, but to a lesser degree.

Sounds like those idiots don't know the first rule about concerts, any hits the band has is going to be in the encore. That way, the people jumping on the band's bandwagon have to hear other songs from the band's back catalog first. Some bands deliberately get joy seeing these types of fans squirm in their seats at concerts (Queensryche being an example that loved seeing fans upset over not playing "Silent Lucidity" until the encore back in the day).
Also, what a lucky man you were to see 2/3 rds of ELP perform.

I just posted an article about how to build and deploy a Quad anchor: http://www.summitpost.org/quad-anchor/777941
I have used this when multi-pitching, but I was wondering if there are some drawbacks to this system I am not aware of?
logsden wrote:Recommendation for your article - you show a picture of the basic setup without a picture of a properly clipped anchor point. This could be confusing to someone not familiar with the setup. It would be a good idea to include a shot of it properly rigged.
Buckaroo wrote:4 strands of 8mm seems like overkill, not exactly "going light". Try some 5mm tech cord or skinny dyneema runner even better.
Redundant - The resulting anchor should be redundant for every part in it. In simple terms, pay attention to every piece of gear you have installed; if any one of them should break, you should always have secondary security built into the anchor. No single failure should lead to total failure of the anchor.
No Extension - There should be no extension, or slack, in the system. The more extension there is, the more brutal the shock forces will be in a case of a fall.

We took our girl scouts camping at Camp Seven Hills this past weekend. We went on a hike in the woods and thought these trees were fantastic and then we were building a lean to and found this cute frog. Several hours after a rainstorm the sun came out , dried out everything and then we saw these clouds in the distance with lightning crackling through them. It was amazing.

For the nearly 10yrs I have been hearing that training BJJ in a Gi tightens up your game and improves you as an MMA fighter... The claim has mostly come from BJJ guys but also a few respected MMA fighters.
The thing is I have been training quite a long time and did about 6mths in a Gi when I first started, ever since then I have trained shit loads of sub wrestling & BJJ without the gi and im still at a loss as to why this statement is continually made.
With the Gi is so much slower and uses a lot of sweeps, chokes and control using something you wont have when you fight MMA, so surely if your game is tight and you train/drill regulary & properly without the Gi then that is more beneficial to your game? I even think its better to train without a t-shirt on if you are prepping for a fight let alone a Gi to make it more realistic.
This is a genuine question and not bashing pyjama wearers at all, im just interested in peoples experiences & opinions as to why the Gi is supposed to be better...

West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional and beautiful example of this true barn (garage really!) find of an original southern California 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger 2 door Hardtop with it's original matching # 225/145HP Slant 6 cylinder engine with only 10,900 original miles and recently discovered in its original deceased owners garage in Sylmar, California still boasting its original 'Light Green Metallic' (Code F4) factory paint and all original matching interior, original factory wheels and tires and with factory power steering, air conditioning and power brakes.
This particular car would seem to have been always garaged with no sun damage and no history of any accidents and absolutely no rust whatsoever! The car was built in March of 1970 and the last year the car was registered on the road was in 1971 and the car still boasts its original California registration tags which expired in 1972! It also has a California Highway Patrol inspection sticker from 1971 and none newer!
This is the history of the car as we understand it:
The car was purchased new by an elderly lady in the spring of 1970 from 'San Fernando Valley Motors' and she drove it for approximately one year before passing away and the car will be sold with her original owners manual. The owner passed away at around this time, in 1971, soon after her husband, and both of their cars sat in their home garage in Sylmar, California until the year 2008 when the property was sold by her family and everything was removed from the garage and subsequently sold. At the time the Swinger had been sitting for close to 38 years in the garage! The car was still sitting on its original tires and was 100% original! It had a little over 9K miles on the odometer. Upon removal from the garage by its new purchaser the only items that needed to be replaced to make it roadworthy were the battery, the radiator and the master cylinder. The tires still held air and pressure with no problems. The A/C was recharged and blew ice cold at a measured 34 degrees. Every other component of the car worked perfectly well including the radio, lights, gauges, switches and horn. At that time a new set of radial tires on original A-Body (4" bolt pattern) Mopar rally wheels were installed along with an original set of 340 Swinger hood scoops and hood pins to give the car a more sportier and high performance look but please note that we have since removed the wheels and tires and replaced them with the cars original wheels and tires for posterity.
This car must be seen to be appreciated - the car been driven only sparingly in the last year and now boats only 10,900 original miles! The original 225 slant 6 engine runs flawlessly and has excellent oil pressure and no noticeable oil leaks, the transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and the engine temperature always remains cool. All the factory tags and markings are still present and the car still retains its original crimped on fuel filter, hoses, clamps, plugs and ignition - everything is 1970 original including the interior!
This is a obviously a very rare find and a stunning example of a 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger and will no doubt prove to be one daily appreciating, daily driving and daily head-turning all time classic American car with it's original matching # engine and with it's original specifications 100% intact! Perfect for the Mopar enthusiast or simply any American classic car collector!

1 & 2. I love these contrasts — the black wall and the white chandelier, the texture of the rug vs. the smooth modern lines of the fixture. Perfect. Home of Sarah Yates, from her blog, A House in the Hills.
3. Love the contrast with the very traditional floral paper in this dining room from Design Manifest.
4 & 5. The dining room of blogger Victoria Smith of SF Girl by Bay. I love the soft girliness of the pink with the modern shape of the chandelier.
6. In a Brooklyn home from Dwell.
7. The Orbit chandelier in black, from Townsend Design.
8. In the Brooklyn apartment of Johanna Methusalemsdottir, from Freunde von Freunden.
9. In a rustic Charleston kitchen from Dwell.
10. In a lovely modern Christmas setting from Sitting in a Tree Events. The laciness of the chandelier almost makes it seem like a Christmas decoration itself.

ASUS today announced the Tytan G70 Gaming Desktop PC with the latest 4th generation Intel Core processor and one-click, no-reboot-required, all-core processor overclocking. The Tytan G70 also features NVIDIA GeForce GTX780 graphics that supports four displays for fully immersive gaming, a sophisticated multi-vented case design for efficient cooling, built-in wireless battery recharging for mobile devices, and SonicMaster audio. ASUS Tytan G70 features one-click Turbo Gear overclocking that allows users to make the most of the 4th generation Intel Core i7-4770K processor without having to reboot. ASUS Turbo Gear technology provides simultaneous four-core CPU overclocking to push the Tytan G70's clock speed from the standard 3.7GHz to two stable levels - Level 1 at 3.9GHz and Level 2 at 4.1GHz. The latest NVIDIA GeForce GTX780 graphics card has the capacity to deliver smooth gameplay at the highest in-game graphics settings and can support up to four displays, as well as the option to game in 3D with NVIDIA 3D Vision Surround. Efficient cooling solutions in the heat of battle The Tytan G70 features a 10-way venting design that takes advantage of its 10 cooling fans. Activating Turbo Gear mode automatically opens the top and side vents to reveal six front-facing and two rear-facing fans. These, along with two fans in the bottom grill and inside the case, work in tandem with the integrated water-cooling system to provide effective thermal management. These cooling solutions make the Tytan G70 ideal for marathon gaming sessions and prolong component lifespan, too. The vents also have sensors to prevent them from closing on fingers. Tytan G70 sports solid, chiseled lines, with intricate patterns on the chassis as well as lighting effects like the ROG logo and bottom grill LEDs change color from blue to red to reflect overclocking levels. Enhanced SonicMaster audio Tytan G70 features ASUS SonicMaster technology. Together with MaxxAudio from Waves, recipient of a Technical GRAMMY Award, they give Tytan G70 immersive and impactful audio delivery, enhancing the gaming experience with reverberating explosions and gunshots, with even the slightest footsteps giving directional auditory cues on the battlefield. Tytan G70 also comes with the ASUS-exclusive AudioWizard interface that allows users to tailor settings according to their needs. Real-world usability and convenience Tytan G70 comes with ASUS Wireless Charger for cable-free charging of smartphones and tablets that are compliant with the Qi inductive power standard. To charge, users simply need to place their Qi-compatible device on the recharging tray built into the top of the case. ASUS also provides Tytan G70 users with 32GB of complimentary ASUS WebStorage for three years. ASUS desktops - leading in satisfaction with reliability ASUS computers reflect a tradition of the finest quality, innovation and longevity. Based on the PCWorld USA 2012 reader survey of tech satisfaction, reliability, and service, users ranked ASUS as a leading choice for desktop PCs, citing high satisfaction with their value, connectivity, ease of use and reliability. The survey also found ASUS desktop PCs were one of the most likely to be recommended to others.
Are those supposed to be fan grills? Terrible design. Form and function are supposed to work in balance. That's all form.
The grills only show when the Turbo Gear mode is activated. With the vents closed it looks like this:
Could be fun to make a build in such a case. The wireless charging is pretty cool, but the fan grills are ridiculous. Probably overpriced though. It's like ASUS tries to compete with Alienware.
I like how they have to spell it 'Tytan' - just to be unique. either that or avoiding copyright from Nvidia (though that would be stupid - Nvidia dont own the word 'titan')
Thank goodness we have choices when it comes to assembling PC parts. Asian culture has a pretty, uhh, unique sense of style, if we could only get assembled PCs made in Asia :shadedshu
It's a great concept - a small, powerful unobtrusive machine for normal use, then push a button and it transforms into a monstrous, heat-spewing beast for gaming. Except that it's a lame joke to serious enthusiasts, overclockers, and water cooling veterans, and the price will be laughable as well. This could only seem like a good deal if you're a rich teenage geek with a fetish for "Transformer" movies.
just because ......just the kind of thing i look for on clearance/deal to add to my collection of oddities
Because senseless gimmicks make your PC case operate better and cooler. If it didnt have these retarded opening gundam wing style panels it would be OK. Panels closed, it looks alright, but it has a stupid name and stupid gimmicks, and I'm betting the hardware inside is going to have a huge premium on it for the ROG name. Turbo mode. Seriously. Are all high end gamers F***ING 14 year olds?!
No word on pricing, and Asus things are decently priced even for gaming laptops. I wouldn't be too concerned just yet. As for the silly gundam intake, I think the average guy who buys the case like this will never clean the innards, justifying the crazy extra cooling. Lastly, if all high end gamers are 14 year olds, this will be the only product in the market. The fact that we have other self build ones ...
How is it ROG? Tell me which republic that these gamers are from that would choose something so fugly. Also it seems Asus is trying to mimic the Alienware cases, which are just as ugly. Not to mention not a whole lot of room to work with inside either.
It's supposed to be heart-pounding, balls-to-the-wall, high-octane, over the top, badass gaming PC, that shoots rockets when the vents open. The trend in pre-assembled gaming configs is pure in-your-face squarish gundam style (a.k.a Pacific Rim ) in my opinion for the last few reincarnations of the series. Aurora does it, Bolt does it, Asus does it. It will go away.... I think?
I would love to have one... Because probably I would find same day someone to change for X79 Dark 3930K 780 Classified and 1000G2 and hold that on empty pizza box happy as little kid.
See how upstruckted those airflow vents are? I would have loved to be in the design meeting (Lets design the intake vents so that the airflow is down 95%)
