-Custom Redwood Siding Patterns-
Please note that while our complete assortment of stock redwood siding patterns and milling equipment allows us to address most everyday siding and moulding requests, we also have the capability to match your drawings or samples to help you achieve options that are not shown in our catalog. Bring your siding requirements to us and we will show you what can be done.
-We Care About the Environment-
In a world where growing population and a public interested in living comfortably increasingly creates pressure on our environment, we believe the use of renewable resources plays a vital role in construction. To that end, we only purchase our redwood from sustainably protected California forests and use salvage logs whenever possible.
-Old Growth Salvage Logs-
In order to provide you with the highest quality redwood lumber while minimizing our impact on the environment, Redwood Lumber & Supply searches throughout the redwood region for old-growth salvage logs. Though they are a small percentage of our production, salvaged redwood supplements our utilization of renewable, young growth material. Old-growth salvage logs do not involve harvesting of living old-growth trees. This treasured material largely comes from previously fallen timber that was not recovered decades ago. Either it was physically too difficult to retrieve or it was not economical to process at the time. Redwood salvage logs may also come from naturally fallen trees due to more recent storm damage, landslides and other natural occurrences.

Clemson creates center in sustainable development
CLEMSON - Clemson University has established a Center of Economic Excellence in Sustainable Development, which will develop tools for supporting natural and "built" environments.
Clemson received approval from the S.C. Endowed Chairs Review Board this month to establish the center with $4 million in state funds matched by $4 million in private donations, school officials said in a statement.
"The center will consolidate faculty expertise from across campus to initiate a world-class research enterprise to develop the technological foundation of sustainable development," said Gene Eidson, professor of biological sciences and the principal investigator who led the effort to create the new center and endowment.
The research activities of the center will dovetail with other Clemson economic development centers and institutes, including the Restoration Institute, Advanced Fiber-Based Materials, Urban Ecology and Restoration, and the Cyber-Institute, according to a statement.
Research will be led by a new endowed professor who will integrate sustainable development with information technology to advance the research, education and outreach objectives of the center.
The chair holder also will play a key leadership role identifying commercial opportunities for the center's Intelligent River research, which will deploy a network of sensors and probes in the Savannah River to transmit vast amounts of information wirelessly.
Eidson is director of the Clemson Center for Watershed Excellence and the Baruch Institute of Coastal Ecology and Forest Science. He also leads the restoration ecology focus area of the Restoration Institute.
The S.C. General Assembly in 2002 established the Centers of Economic Excellence Program and is funded by S.C. Education Lottery proceeds.

이 얘기 좀 들어보세요
Posted by Alex Skelton on Oct 05, 2011
우리는 지난 주에 몇 번 정도 언론에 보도된 적이 있는데요. 맨 처음 것이 선수들 사이에서 아주 끝내주는 장비라는…
We've been in the press a few times over the last week. First up was a nice feature in Athletics Weekly focusing on GB 800m athlete Jenny Meadows' use of the Wattbike for cross-training, they called The Secret Weapon. Not so secret now!
Jenny is using her Wattbike all year round and although, by her own admission, she had a disappointing World Championships, she finished the season off in style by coming third in the Zurich meeting (video below) and winning the overall Diamond Race which comes with a nice cheque! Well done Jenny and we look forward to catching up with you very soon.
We'll also be visiting Jenny's hometown friends at Wigan Warriors to see what's in store for their players after a season in which they won the Challenge Cup on their first visit to Wembley in more than a decade. They fell short in the Super League playoffs and we know they are disappointed but not many can argue with the fantastic entertainment they've put on for fans throughout the League.
Wattbike was also mentioned by Tom Peck of The Independent as he was sent to Cycle Show 2011 to learn how to ride a bike at the age of 29 and 2/3rds years old. Tom took it all in his stride and started the day by jumping on a Wattbike to learn all about good pedalling technique. After a great session with Eddie Fletcher, Tom then moved on to the Cycle Show's excellent outdoor track and managed to complete a few metres entirely unaided. Mission accomplished! Tom's review of his cycling day can be read on The Independent website while his immediate thoughts on the day can be seen in the video below.

Don't get so bogged down in the big picture that you don't recognize the tiny successes. - If you exercise for 10 minutes, celebrate it. - If you stick to your meal plan for lunch, celebrate it. - If you avoid snacking in the evening, celebrate it!All these tiny successes add up to big lifestyle changes. Be proud of yourself, and celebrate your successes.
Staying and improving185I make tiny goals that help to push me on further. If I am running I pick a point up a head to run to and then promise myself that I can walk if I get to that point. Tiny goals but many of them, when you reach one set another. Its great to keep you going and making you go that extra little bit.
I can never remember to take my daily multivitamin, so I added it to my "other goals" page to both remind myself and give myself a spark point for doing it!

Our second annual Cornwall Asparagus Festival was an all-round success. Well over 300 visitors attended the event, doubling its visitor numbers since our first event in 2012.
Aaron Pascoe, General Manager at The Penventon, was delighted with the turnout. "We're passionate about local produce and we've worked hard to make this year's festival bigger and better than the first. We're so pleased that so many people came along to celebrate the county's fantastic produce with us and we hope that the festival just goes from strength to strength, year on year. We have so much to offer here in Cornwall, many talented local chefs and delicious produce, so it's great to celebrate all things local."
The festival, which took place on Sunday 19 May, was a free one-day event with a mixture of asparagus recipes, live cookery demonstrations, tasters, a special asparagus menu and plenty of Cornish food and drink on offer. The festival is about so much more than asparagus; the Food Market showcased everything from home grown veg and Cornish duck, to Cornish wine and clotted cream. Presented by BBC Radio Cornwall's Daphne Skinnard and Tiffany Truscott the live cookery demonstrations were a real highlight of the festival.
Joe Lado Devesa, head chef, comments: "People came from far and wide to explore as much Cornish produce as they could manage. Local growers John and Jennie Keeler were happy to answer questions about asparagus and we had some fantastic chefs, including Tim Treseder, Arty Williams, Nigel Tabb and Mark Devonshire sharing the secrets behind their favourite recipes. It was fantastic to see the whole community coming together to meet the people behind the produce, celebrate and really connect with local food."

UO women want it all
Here's all you need to know about the 2009 Oregon women's track and field team: they're not content with making history.
They want it all.
For the first time ever, the Ducks placed in the top 10 at the NCAA Indoor Championships last March, but they came away disappointed.
They were shooting for a top-five finish.
The UO women scored 100 points with a third-place perfomance at the Pac-10 Championships last year, their best showing since 1996.
But they weren't satisfied, especially after watching the Duck men take a victory lap with their fourth conference title in the past six years.
"We're tired of the guys being in the limelight and getting all the attention," said UO senior Rachel Yurkovich, the reigning NCAA champion and school record-holder in the javelin.
"There were a lot of us last year watching the guys celebrate their championships, and thinking, 'Man, we really want that.' A lot of us are really hungry for it and we're going to do whatever it takes to win."
All of which brings a broad smile to the face of UO associate director of track and field Dan Steele.
He has watched the Duck women move the program forward each season since UO director of track and field Vin Lananna arrived on campus four years ago, and he believes this group can take the next step.
After all, they bring back all 27 points from last year's eighth-place performance at the NCAA meet, their best finish in 15 years.
"The fact that they're not content with just making history at Oregon tells you that this is a really strong team," Steele said. "They fully expect to win everything they're getting into and that's an essential part of winning any championship."
You can read the entire UO women's track and field preview in Friday's R-G.
Only a couple of noteworthy quotes that didn't make the final cut:
This from Steele: "As I watched the competition (at the Stanford Invitational), taking it all in, and seeing the (UO) women do so well, I looked over at Vin, and I had this epiphany. The vision that Vin had when he was hired, it's happening, it's coming to light. All of those really audacious goals that he put out there are really happening. I think he has done such a great job of presenting a vision to the staff and athletes, it's really exciting."
"It's an authentic confidence with the (UO) women. There are people that can talk the talk, but when they get out there and compete, you can see that they really don't think they can win. This isn't that group. They actually think they can win. They stick their noses in it and they don't back down."
We'll have a game-day advance on the Pepsi meet on Saturday. You can check out the preliminary entry list here.
Curtis Anderson covered UO track and field for The Register-Guard from 1990-96, and again since 2005. He covered the 2012 Olympic Games in London, in addition to the U.S. Olympic Track & Field Trials in New Orleans (1992), Atlanta (1996) and Hayward Field (2008 and 2012). He is the winner of the Jesse Abramson Award, presented by the Track & Field Writers of America for excellence in coverage in 2008.

Okay, I hardly ever read this article, but I bothered to today, and I've just got to comment on the explanation of that last deck: Really?Let's assume a turn 5 win by having your opponent "be defensive". Oh, I mean "be a goldfish". Who's falling for this? Decks have their own game plans, and any good deck can goldfish into either a win or else complete control of the board by turn 5. Why are we assuming an opponent who's going to be "defensive" without actually defending himself? That's just insulting people's intelligence.More importantly, who's falling for this more than once? No player, I don't care how casual, is going to build a deck that loses to a one trick pony like this and say "Oh, I think I'll keep playing this deck so I can keep getting killed in the exact same way game after game because I can't think of a way to get a 4-for-1 from my opponent overcommitting." It might be fun to win like that once, but when your opponent starts playing a deck with some answers - which will inevitably happen - then this deck will be boring and weak and disappointing. Suggesting decks that are only effective when they overcommit is bad faith.Anyway, I realize this is a casual column and I'm not in the intended demographic. But I do know some casual players, even some very new players, who take suggestions like this at face value. Slumbering Dragon is a new player trap in so many ways already, why would you suggest a deck that exposes all its weaknesses to their maximum? How is that good marketing? All you're doing is setting people up to fail.

Australia's Newcrest posts $439 M half year profit
SYDNEY (AP) - Australia's largest gold miner Newcrest Mining Ltd. reported Friday that its half-year net profit had more than doubled to 438 million Australian dollars ($439 million) due to increased sales, higher prices and the acquisition of more mines.
The profit for the six months to Dec. 31 was a 148 percent increase on the AU$176 million profit in the last half of 2009, the miner said in a statement.
Newcrest - which describes itself as one of the world's top 10 gold mining companies by production, reserves and market capitalization - said it produced 1,397,002 ounces of gold. That was 70 percent more than during the last six months of 2009.
The company took over rival Lihir Gold Ltd. and its Australian mines on Aug. 30 last year.
Copper production was down from 49,767 tons (45,148 metric tons) in the last six months of 2009 to 39,028 tons (35,406 metric tons) in the latest half due to rain slowing production at Newcrest's Cadia Valley mine in New South Wales state.
Newcrest's board also announced that managing director Ian Smith would step down on July 1, with executive director for finance Greg Robinson to succeed him.

The unthinkable has happened: Pawnee, Ind., just got sexier!
While NBC isn't commenting yet, Parks & Recreation boss Mike Schur (Mose!) just confirmed to our pal Matt Mitovitch from sister site Fancast that Rob Lowe is coming on the NBC show, saying, "It's a perfect fit."
So what are the deets?
No word yet on Rob's role—I'm told that's still being finalized—but Lowe will come on board in the second-to-last episode of the season and is slated for "a number of episodes stretching into season three."
Lowe is exiting ABC's Brothers & Sisters after the current season, amid reports that Rob had asked out of his contract in order to land more of a leading role elsewhere. (Though my sources also cite budget issues and say the parting was a bit more mutual.)
So it is a bit surprising Rob is taking another ensemble gig.
According to Schur, Rob will mesh well in a comedy like P-Rex because he was "very funny" in movies like Wayne's World, Thank You for Smoking and Austin Powers.
The current second season of Parks and Recreation is enjoying a creative upswing, so we can only assume Schur's team will come up with some awesome material for Lowe.
Are you excited to see Rob Lowe on Parks & Recreation? Which character would you pair him up with? Comment below...

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) -- Kentucky coach Joker Phillips is heading into his third season with a gambler's attitude.
His roster is full of young talent that has pushed its way to the top of the Wildcats' depth chart. As Kentucky's promising youth goes, so will Phillips.
Of the top 44 players on Kentucky's depth chart going into the fall, 26 were either sophomores or redshirt freshmen. That does not include six upperclassmen projected to be starters for the first time or any incoming freshmen who Phillips expects to earn playing time by the season opener Sept. 2 at Louisville.
The hope is the youngsters will prosper quickly like a similar group of Wildcats did in 2006. Then, with Phillips as offensive coordinator, 24 of the 44 on the two-deep depth chart were either freshmen or sophomores. That team finished 8-5 and won the program's first bowl game, a 28-20 Music City Bowl win over Clemson, since 1984.
"It reminds me of the leadership at the top, and the talent at the bottom," Phillips said. "That reminds me of the `06 team. We still got to go out and play, but the makeup of the team reminds me of that."
It's still possible Phillips could start a sophomore or a true freshman at quarterback. A four-man quarterback competition remains unresolved between senior Morgan Newton, sophomore Maxwell Smith, and true freshmen Patrick Towles and Jalen Whitlow. Phillips has maintained all four are being considered, though offensive coordinator Randy Sanders said Newton has not yet fully recovered from December surgery to repair a torn labrum.
Sanders also said "it's pretty easy to say" newcomers Towles and Whitlow are behind Smith and Newton in the competition.
Smith seems to be the front-runner for now. Smith started three games in 2011 as a true freshman after Newton hurt his shoulder, and he earned All-SEC freshman honors. He completed 84 of 153 pass attempts for 819 yards, four touchdowns and four interceptions.
The challenge for any freshman trying to earn a starting job, Smith said, is proving to the upperclassmen that he belongs. That's what Smith faced when he got onto the field in 2011.
"It's the SEC, not high school anymore," Smith said. "So you have to come in and prove yourself, and I felt like that even though I might not have played great or anything, I showed I have the ability to play. Now I have a better grasp of the offense and the defenses and the speed of the game."
Attrition hit the Wildcats' defense especially hard. Defensive coordinator Rick Minter was forced to replace players that accounted for 58.2 percent of Kentucky's tackles, 50 percent of the sacks and 86.7 percent of interceptions last season.
At least the Wildcats have both talent and experience on the defensive line where it's the only area that returns all starters from last season. Junior tackles Donte Rumph (6-foot-3, 315 pounds) and Mister Cobble (6-0, 331 pounds) also bring plenty of size on the interior linemen while combining for 64 tackles in 2011. Phillips said with those two and senior end Collins Ukwu the defensive line is the strength of his team.
Kentucky gets to host South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi State and Vanderbilt at Commonwealth Stadium this season, though the Wildcats will visit Florida, Arkansas, Missouri and Tennessee in the SEC. The Wildcats also will host Western Kentucky, Kent State and Samford.
Experience elsewhere will be spread thin, but Phillips said he has been encouraged by the willingness of his young players to grow up quickly.
"We've got a great locker room right now," he said. "I love this locker room. We've got guys that are doing things the right way, especially the guys up top leading the young guys. We need all 105 of those players with us when we get to Sept. 2."

Here are five lessons we strugglers can "learn" from millionaires, according to Liz Pulliam Weston at MSN Money. How are the rich different than the "rest of us?" Let me enumerate the ways:
1. They give away more. Households with more than $500,000 of investible assets give away 6% of their incomes. I'm not sure this statistic has relevance; if we're talking about 6% of income, we should consider amount of income rather than net worth.
2. They are much more likely to own businesses. This is widely viewed as a better path to passive income than investing in stocks or real estate.
3. They borrow strategically. The rich still borrow money like us "po' folk" (ie., not millionaires), but they're only half as likely to have that debt on credit cards. Instead, their debt is concentrated in mortgages — for primary and secondary (or rental) homes.
4. They don't blow a lot of money on cars. The average value of cars owned by millionares is higher, but this value as a percentage of total net worth is significantly lower for the rich than for the average.
5. They're almost always homeowners, and many own investment property, too. 95.8% of the top 10% own homes while the average is 67.7%.
So I'm not sure what we can "learn" from these facts as the article suggestions other than the higher the net worth, the more flexibility one has. There's only so far you can cut back expenses, but the opportunity to grow income is limited only by the individual (theoretically). Maximize your net income after expenses and save what you can, invest what you can, to allow for more flexibility in the future.

Savion Glover
Background: Savion Glover is an acclaimed tap dancer who makes music with his feet. He began tap dancing at age seven, in cowboy boots. He didn't get a pair of tap shoes until five years later, when he got the lead role in the Broadway musical, "The Tap Dance Kid."
Since then, Glover has had an amazing career on-stage, on-screen, and around the world. At age of 15, he became one of the youngest males to be nominated for a Tony Award (Best Actor for "Black and Blue"). And at age 22, he won a Tony Award for Best Choreography (for "Bring in da Noise, Bring in da Funk," a musical revue of African American history.)
Glover has also appeared in several films including Tap, in which he got to dance alongside legendary tap dancers Gregory Hines and Sammy Davis Jr.; and Happy Feet, in which he choreographed moves for an animated penguin named Mumble!
RIF: You call yourself a "hoofer" instead of a tap dancer. What is hoofing?
Savion Glover: While tap is a dance style; hoofing is a lifestyle. I'm a hoofer because I live and breathe tap dancing. I live the dance every second of every day—whether I'm on-stage, walking down the street, or trying on clothes in a store.
RIF: What first attracted you, and still attracts you, to tap more than any other style of dance?
SG: Tap is a means of communication for me. I can express myself through this dance; I always feel like I'm in my element when I'm tap dancing.
RIF: What was it like to win a Tony Award for Best Choreography at the age of 22 (for the musical Bring in da Noise, Bring in da Funk)?
SG: It felt great because hoofing was getting acknowledged and appreciated by the Broadway community. It was a win not just for me but for all of the hoofers, past and present.
RIF: How did you approach choreographing Bring in da Noise, Bring in da Funk?
SG: It was collaborative effort. We'd have all the dancers and drummers in the room, and when I started something, others would join in. We had a lot of energy and we were coming up with routines every day. It was a powerful and amazing experience.
RIF: What did you think when they first contacted you to do the film, Happy Feet?
SG: I thought, "What a creative concept... a tap dancing penguin." And then I immediately said, "Great, let's do it!"
RIF: How did you approach choreographing moves for Mumble?
SG: The director wanted my style, so I was free to be myself. At one point, though, I had to be a younger Mumble so I danced more clumsily.
RIF: What was it like watching the end result?
SG: It was amazing. My 3-year-old son, Cheney, watches the movie from time to time and whenever I see it I'm like, "Wow, that's cool!"
RIF: You've performed all over the world in all kinds of settings—from Broadway to the White House. What has been your favorite performance so far?
SG: I really don't have one. I've been blessed to perform with great hoofers like Chuck Green, Gregory Hines, and Sammy Davis, Jr. So for me, every time is the best experience.
RIF: What advice do you have for kids who want to be a hoofer like you?
SG: I encourage all young people to do what you love every day. Don't wait for someone to recognize you or for the world to tell you when and how to express yourself.

Archive for the 'Jada' tag
Contemporary cruisers
Jada's new NexGen series offers today's best all-American performance cars in small-scale.
photo courtesy Jadaclub.com
A recent trip to Wal-Mart over auction weekend in Scottsdale turned up some
new Jada models for the first time in a while. They've been seemingly
dormant — well, at least quiet — with small-scale items over a good chunk of
2008, and we wondered whether they were even still around.
I almost didn't recognize them as Jadas: Rather than their traditional
yellow bubble packaging, they've moved to a plastic bubble glued on
cardboard — sort of the opposite of what JL did a couple of years ago.
(Unlike JL, they maintained a $2.97 price-point.) They were also in a shelf tray, rather than hanging up, so for anyone used to looking up for their
diecast, try looking down a little.
The new series is called NexGen, and is all (or mostly all) new cars: Viper
Coupe, '10 Mustang, new ZR1, Camaro, Challenger, and the Shelby GT500KR.
Challenger and Camaro are available in two colors, the others only one each
(the Viper and Vette share a color and wheels, so be careful — initially, I thought I grabbed two ZR1s). Nothing that's completely new to the
small-scale world (even the new ZR1 already has three small-scale representatives now), but nice, nonetheless. The only one we didn't pick up
was the Shelby, figuring we had that casting already.
Turns out we might have been mistaken. You may recall that Jada has done concept Challengers and Camaros before, but these are NEW CASTINGS.
Dimensionally the new models are nearly identical to the ones that showed up in '07, but there are a few tells. The new Challenger has no mirrors, but
the taillamps and grille are production-car correct. Also, the area where the chassis meets the nose is a different curve. Camaro has a revised rear
fascia, a less-squinty grille and headlamps, revised exhaust tips, the top-of-rear-fender gascap is gone, and there's a different texture in the
grille opening. The chassis are plastic, not metal. I'm starting to regret not picking up the GT500KR, because if five out of six cars are different,
that one is probably a new casting as well.
Otherwise, it's everything you expect from Jada cars — a solid, chunky feel, sympathetic detailing, no opening features — without some of the excesses of earlier models (i.e., Pro Street stances, molded-in ground effects). If this is
what we can expect out of a rejeuvenated Jada, 2009 should be an interesting year.

Jack Odell, creator of Matchbox and Lledo models, dies
Before there was a "die-cast collectibles" market, before there were certificates of authenticity and serial numbers and all manner of marketing gimmickry. Before there was a Jada, a Johnny Lightning, or a Hot Wheels, there was Matchbox—a brand that lit millions of kid-sized imaginations worldwide, a name that turned generations of kids into car enthusiasts. How many of us remember driving down fantasy highways for destinations unknown, putting ourselves behind the wheel of a Matchbox car? How many of us used toy cars as an entry into the greater automotive hobby—real cars or otherwise? How many of us learned about cars from around the world, just from our toy collections? If you grew up from the late '50s to mid-to-late '60s, Matchbox was the toy car of choice.
There would have been no Matchbox without Jack Odell.
Born in London in 1920, Odell was kicked out of school at age 13 and was never formally trained as an engineer. Even so, mechanics and tinkering helped him scrape up a living, but it wasn't until 1947 that he joined Lesley and Rodney Smith (unrelated to each other) at Lesney, a die-casting facility. He quickly got up to speed on the process and shortly he paid the Smiths two pounds a week rent for space. In 1950, the school that Odell's daughter attended forbade toys any larger than a box of matches, so he handcrafted a brass steamroller for her. Thus, the idea was born. Odell tooled up for a toy state coach as early as 1950, but zinc restrictions during the Korean War kept it under wraps; the unsteady business caused Rodney Smith to leave in '51. But by '52 the restrictions were lifted, and painted gold it became the Coronation Coach, released in time for Queen Elizabeth II's rise to the throne. This was the company's initial die-cast hit, selling a million copies and allowing for the tooling for the Matchbox line.
And Matchbox took off: They were big enough for little fingers but small enough that kids couldn't choke on them. And they were cheap—kids could buy one for pocket money. Odell worked from manufacturers' blueprints and photos for each new model. He was deeply proud of the fact that machine tools were the only equipment he hadn't made in the factory. The company went public in 1960, making a million cars a week, and by 1964, Matchbox made a million cars a day. (He famously told The New York Times in 1962, "We make more Rolls-Royces in a day than the Rolls-Royce company has made in its entire history."
This, plus an aggressive new-model program (two new vehicles a month), meant that at their 1960s peak, more than 300 million cars per year were sold in 140 countries around the world, with two million a week sold in the U.S. alone. He was very much involved in the factory goings-on, preferring to be on the factory floor and eat lunch in the cafeteria than disappear into an ivory tower. Odell was made an OBE in 1969. The company employed more than 6,000 workers in a dozen factories across London, and threw a scare into the Meccano (Dinky) group in Liverpool, whose cars were larger and a good deal more expensive.
In turn, Mattel's fast-rolling upstart, Hot Wheels, had made a splash on the American market in the late '60s; Matchbox responded with the Superfast line, but even so, the '70s weren't kind to the vaunted die-cast brand, and in 1982, the company was sold to the Universal company, based in the Far East. In 1993, they were bought by Tyco, which was absorbed by Mattel a decade ago.
Odell, meanwhile, bought all of the machine-room tools from the new owners, and started the Lledo line (Lledo is Odell spelled backwards) which concentrated on larger-scale pre-war era commercial vehicles in its "Days Gone By" series, with colorful vintage ads from all manner of commercial goods on the side. He sold this second company in 1996. Odell died July 7 of complications from Parkinson's; he was 87.

Jada's 1:64 For $ale will satisfy a hungry market
Die-cast carmaker Jada has unveiled a new line of diamond-in-the-rough replicas, to the delight of collectors
photo courtesy www.1stopdiecast.com
Once upon a time, when your author was dreaming up ideas for a small toy-car
company in the Midwest, he stumbled onto the notion of doing cars that
looked more like the ones you might see for sale at the side of the road. I
don't mean the usual details like taillights and grilles painted in, I'm
talking mismatched paint, primered panels, missing nameplates, surface rust,
mismatched wheels, a For Sale sign written in soap on the windscreen. It was
fun to do, and I'm proud to say that it created something of a buzz with
collectors. But management hedged their bets, and one model appeared every
couple of months. Collectors wanted more, and they weren't forthcoming.
Fast forward three years, and the collecting niche hungry for imperfect
die-cast cars is about to be sated! Jada has taken the concept of
worn-out-looking die-cast and, rather than dribble it into a larger series,
has made an entire series out of it in 1:64 scale called For $ale. The series takes some of
Jada's best-loved ('59 Cadillac, '56 Ford F100 pickup) and newest (VW
transporter, Divco dairy delivery truck) castings, and dresses
them down. Mismatched paint, general fade and weathering, primer spots,
blacked-out headlights, chassis painted in red-oxide primer, wheels and
tires painted a muddy brown, you name it. Each model also has a
red and white For Sale sign in the windshield, it's tiny and hard to see in
some cases, but it's there.
Our only criticism is the heavy emphasis on trucks rather than passenger
cars, but if Jada's proven anything in the past five years, it's that they
know their market. It's good to see that Jada pulled off something that I
couldn't. We got ours from www.1stopdiecast.com.

Big, beautiful Bs
A couple of weeks back, we kind of snickered at the latest wave in die-cast, Donks—those part-car, part-monster-truck, all-bling models with their roots in the American Southeast. There is a secondary effect at work here, however: Models that might not otherwise have ever seen the light of day are now getting their moment in the die-cast spotlight.
Previously, just about the only 1971-'76 GM B-body you could get your paws on was by LJN, who sold a four-door Impala in The Rookies packaging in the mid-'70s. Jada has just released a '73 coupe, and the modular roof indicates that this will likely be available as both hardtop and convertible models. Maisto has been aggressive about it, releasing a '71 convertible. MotorMax has jumped into the fray, and as we speak, has both a '71 Caprice coupe and a '76 Caprice coupe.
So what, you ask? Well, we've seen that Jada is releasing separate chassis for their Donk and Dub City/Big Time Muscle series cars, using the same bodies. (Their new '70 Olds Cutlass has two chassis.) Maisto has already shown with their East Coast Ryderz series that they have new Donk chassis for some of their castings, like the '87 El Camino. MotorMax also has proper
chassis for some of their other Hi-Riserz models, like the Ford Crown Victoria and the Dodge Magnum. That means that each of these big, beautiful Bowties, more likely than not, will be released in street-stock, or at least lower-to-the-ground, forms. And the '70s full-size Chevy will flourish in small-scale.
And though it was announced for 2006, you can look for a '73 Kingswood station wagon from the Johnny Lightning crew sometime in 2007. This one doesn't seem in danger of getting Donked, but you never know.

New outfit set to storm the world of die-cast
Think the die-cast aisles are crowded now? Think there's no room for another new brand? Think again. This week, an all-new die-cast company was announced: 1 Badd Ride features "a new look and vision that reeks of Speed and Muscle from today as well as years gone by," according to the press release. What does that mean, exactly? Horrid name aside, the style is a cross between Jada's efforts and Muscle Machines' style, which shouldn't come as a surprise since many of those involved in 1 Badd Ride were involved with Muscle Machines from their introduction almost six years ago.
1 Badd Ride castings will be available in 1:24 and 1:64 scale to start with. Castings include Ford Mustang GT, Corvette C6, Ford Shelby GR-1, Dodge Viper SRT 10, Dodge Magnum and the Chevy SSR in 1:64 scale, with the C6 and the Mustang available in 1:24 scale as well. There will be a series of sport trucks and jacked-up monster-type trucks as well.
The first models are scheduled to hit around Thanksgiving, and while there is mass-market distribution, we're proponents of spending the extra cash and buying whole cases from the hobby market. In this case, the hobby market is being controlled by www.1stopdiecast.com, so surf on over there for more information on what is sure to be the talk of the die-cast world in 2006! 1stopdiecast has a nasty habit of selling out of hot items, so you'll want to order sooner rather than later to avoid getting shut out.

Israel, the West Bank and Gaza: Toward a Solution
by The Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies Study Group
Translations of this item:
The Jaffee Center has, in cooperation with many other institutions, provided an intelligent, thorough, and very valuable report on the options facing Israel with regard to the West Bank and Gaza. Israel's Options systematically takes up the six major alternatives currently on the Israeli agenda: staying with the status quo, annexing the territories, imposing autonomy, withdrawing unilaterally from Gaza, seeking a Jordanian-Palestinian federation, or agreeing to an independent Palestinian state. It convincingly shows that none of the six are attractive, though some (notably annexation) are even less attractive than others.
Toward a Solution is a pamphlet that offers, in a mere eight pages, the Jaffee Center's ideas (without any of the first volume's cosponsors) for breaking Israel's impasse. It calls for Israelis to deal with Palestinians in ways that will change the two peoples' "most fundamental perceptions." 19 On the Israeli side, this means taking such steps as accepting the possibility of a Palestinian state; on the Palestinian side, it means accepting a 10-15 year transition stage and a much-circumscribed sovereignty.
Together, the two reports establish a new clarity for thinking through the Israel-Palestinian confrontation. The main problem with them is that they, like so much of the conventional thinking this year, assume that the Palestinians are the only Arabs facing off against Israel.

One of the many new features that came in iOS 5 was Reminders, an application that allows you to create tasks, lists and other things that you need to be reminded of at some later point. Reminders leverages iCloud so your items will appear on all of your iOS devices and with the preview of OS X Mountain Lion last week, Reminders is coming to the desktop later this summer. One of the best attributes of Reminders is that it can leverage iCloud for storing your items or you can leverage Exchange if you are using that platform at home (think Office365) or in your corporate environment. Depending on your work flow and how much you want to leverage iCloud, you can move your default reminders list (or tasks) from Exchange to iCloud and vise-versa easily on your iPhone or iPad.
The first thing to go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars on your iOS device. Here you will see all of the various settings for your mail accounts as well as your calendars and contacts. The Reminders settings are at the very bottom of the page and give you two options. The first is how far back you want to synchronize data to your device. If you use Reminders as a task list then it is a good idea to synchronize back a couple of weeks if not a month to make sure you can access this information quick from your iPhone or iPad. The second setting is the Default List. This is where the actual location of your reminders are kept. In my case I can chose between Exchange and iCloud. Since I'm leveraging iCloud more – and that will be even more the case with Mountain Lion – I'm saving my Reminders in iCloud.
If you move from Exchange to iCloud any existing reminders will remain where they were created. If you want to move them you will need to go into each of them and move them to the new location.
If you ever want to move back from iCloud to Exchange, just follow these steps in reverse.

Bristol Palin, 17, Pregnant!
So first it was the rumor that Sarah Palin's Down's Syndrome baby was actually her daughter's baby.
Now they are coming clean about the pregnancy and that the daughter, Bristol, is pregnant.
I want to know one thing:
what's the scoop on the age of 17 v the age of consent in Alaska?
Apparently hunting moose in Alaska isn't the only thing this governor engages in.
A 19 y/o son, a new son, under six months, and a pregnant daughter?

The Los Alamos County Airport is hosting an open house from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday and featuring tours of the Cessna Caravan, a nine-seat turboprop aircraft —one of New Mexico Airlines' fleet that will be providing commercial air service between Los Alamos and Albuquerque beginning Monday.
"Once people see the plane and gain an understanding of how reliable it is, they will not be able to resist choosing a $49, 20-minute flight to the Sunport over a two-hour drive and parking fees," says Airport Manager Peter Soderquist.
The Open House starts at 9 a.m. with brief remarks from Soderquist and New Mexico Airlines' Chief Pilot Dave Jones. At 9:15 a.m. and then again, at 9:45 a.m., Jones will take two groups of passengers on 15-minute complimentary flights over the Rio Grande and northern Los Alamos (pending favorable weather).
Flights are available to media and elected officials. Any unassigned seats will be available to the public on a first come, first served basis. Send your reservation request, including name as well as best daytime and nighttime contact information—by 5 p.m., Thursday to email@example.com. All requesters will receive a communication Thursday evening regarding their reservation status.
