From Gilman Street to the Hall of Fame, one of rock's greatest acts never really left where it started.
Before they were "the guys from Green Day," Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt had to bum a lot of rides to get to 924 Gilman Street. Armstrong and Dirnt were teenagers when the Berkeley music club, created in the spirit of the People's Park movement of the 1960s, opened in 1986, and became the place for East Bay kids to plug in guitars and play punk songs in front of a crowd.
The future rock legends, who lived a few miles away from the all-ages club, were initially denied when they tried

JOHN CARTER (Dir. Andrew Stanton)
Verdict: 2 Stars (out of 5) – Torrent it to Procrastinate
No word of a lie, I was excited for this movie. Wars in space, alien civilizations from a different planet, superhuman feats, cool swords and gallons of (blue?) alien blood. However, what I got with John Carter was a two hour movie that felt like five, with short action pieces interspersed with long moments of awful dialogue, a generic plot, and cookie-cutter alien races. I don't think Disney understands that its audience doesn't go to see its Imax 3D movies to see the latest Thor lookalike trying desperately to look teary through layers of muscle. If I wanted that I'd watch Michael Clark Duncan in that Tom Hanks movie!
The most confusing thing about this movie was the plot. And not because it was complex or hard to follow, but because Michael Chabon, a Pulitzer prize-winning author, is credited as one of the writers of the screenplay…which is odd since the product is something I thought was written by a lobotomized monkey (or perhaps the movie's central character…ZING!): there's an 'empire' race that wants to destroy and rule everything with some death star-type weapon, the virtuous kingdom that is losing the war and needs help to save the planet, and the nomadic warrior-hunters that don't want in that fight but are brought in to help turn the tide. I'm all for generic sci-fi plots if they're done well, but this movie was so boring because it didn't seem to give a shit about anything except its eye candy. Every line of dialogue is predictable, from John Carter refusing to aid the blue-blooded princess with ample cleavage (and an unexplained British accent) to evil imperialists reveling over the Ninth Ray power that lets them bitch slap everyone. I've literally seen more interesting stories come out of a 6 year-old playing with Star Wars Lego…or me playing with Lego…sshhhhh!
One thing I really liked was Willem Dafoe's character, the CGI green alien king with four arms, and I was disappointed his story wasn't fleshed out more. He was a compassionate ruler in a brutal, combative society and thus had some dramatic moments and tensions that were actually interesting, especially with his secret daughter. There was a lot of squandered potential there.
The world of Mars and its civilizations themselves aren't very well explained either, as it's difficult to see any internal logic to them. For instance, why are the doors opening by swiveling from the center, why do Caesar and Marc Antony from the TV miniseries Rome get such a small amount of screen time, why do these evil priests want to use their magic blue light to mess up everyone's day, and why should I care about these two dimensional stock-characters? It seems that things are different just for the sole purpose of being different instead of being functional for a different species…oh no, these are alien boats, so we have to…curve the boat paddles to the point that they don't even make sense, to make sure everyone is aware that this isn't Earth.
Since this movie is so boring, predictable, and entertaining only in very brief moments, it's two-hour running time seems to draw on and on until you start focusing on how uncomfortable the 3D glasses are and start gettingreally pissed at having spent twenty bucks to see some British woman throw her boobs around in Imax 3D…wait…I mean…5 stars!
Thank god I was able to redeem my Scene points to see this garbage for free…I mean, use my press pass!
Movies that do it better: Avatar, Star Wars (series), Minority Report, Blade Runner, pretty much anything that creates a coherent, compelling mythology as oppose to just picking out the simplest and worst sci-fi stereotypes.

Guest column: Bridging the Generations ... For Mutual Benefit
As I plan my upcoming visit to Naples to lead a 4Generations seminar, my thoughts travel to memories of my own elders whose influence was so powerful and lifelong in their impact.
As an advocate for family policies, I believe that our nation's great challenges force us to pose one basic question: "What is really important — to ourselves, to our families and to our collective community?"
We are the only species that has the ability to learn from our past and the capacity to plan for our future.
We should all make an effort to learn the lessons of our family and community historians, our tour guides back to another time and to places we have never been.
When my Grandma Minnie would raise her eyebrows and begin telling tales of her childhood "in the old country," I knew it was time to lean in and listen. Her vivid images of the people and events captured my attention like a powerful magnet. I was stuck to her every word.
As Minnie told her history, I'd wonder how people could just move around from place to place, carrying what they owned in burlap sacks, and live to tell the tale. I was astonished that the words coming from her lips were not made-up stories, but real life events. How could this be? As a child of comfort and contentment, all of this was so different from anything I could ever imagine.
Minnie's stories of her immigrant experience are among my most cherished family treasures. I have no photographs of the people or scenes she left behind, only her vivid word pictures. This small woman's story, in an almost matter-of-fact narrative, was eloquent testimony to courage and survival.
Hearing the history created for me a core belief that I needed to appreciate who she was and what she went through. She didn't ask for this adoration, but certainly deserved it from my perspective as a child.
I am not alone in receiving the gift from my elders' life treasury. Family history is a living legacy. It's not only the story of who our elders were, but it defines in many ways who we are. Over the centuries, this nation has been, and continues to be, populated by those whose life's story is worth telling. Whether they came for freedom or by force in slavery, the values our grandparents brought with them are heirlooms which our children deserve to inherit.
Those who survived became advocates for causes and people who needed them — their life's mission was to make the world a bit better than the one they experienced.
While I'm not yet a grandparent, my appreciation of family history is translated to our sons, and perhaps someday they will in turn have the opportunity to pass along the gift.
My career path gives me the wonderful opportunity to bring my message of intergenerational communications to all corners of our state.
Members of the Naples/Collier County community are welcome to join in at the 4Generations Seminar on Feb. 24, 9:30 to 11:30 a.m., hosted by the Daily News, at its headquarters, 1100 Immokalee Rd.
Sponsored by the Education Foundation of Collier County, the seminar is free of charge; RSVPs are requested by Monday to email@example.com.

Listen: A Scientologist's Anthem to the "Galactic Patrol"
For our fellow Scientology watchers, from our underground bunker where we keep an eye on all things Hubbard, we humbly submit this brief movie that should, we think, make a certain song immortal, forevermore.
Thanks must go to a very loyal friend of Runnin' Scared, Xenubarb, who found this song for the ages tucked away in a website.
We've added some slides and some explanation to help you begin to understand the depth and power of this musical voyage. It's best seen full-screen, so make it big!

Last Friday I wrote about Casey Serin, the young man who is deep in debt because of risky real-estate investments. He's blogging about his predicament at iamfacingforeclosure.com. Casey stopped by Get Rich Slowly yesterday and had this to say:
I don't see why a person CANNOT get rich quick… but still do it in an honest and safe way. Whenever you hear "Get Rich Quick" you think somethhing bad.
And yes, if you read my story, it DOES sound like i'm just a big screw-up. AND YES.. I did do some stuff that I am NOT proud of (liar loans). However, I am learning my lessons and hoping to make a comeback.
I am determined to find a way to make an honest buck in real estate in a down market. My mentor "Rich Dad" did it. It took him only about 10 years. Now he has 20K+/mo in PASSIVE income from REAL ESTATE.
Is 10 years too quick? What about 5 years?
That's an interesting question. How quick is too quick?
It's not impossible to get rich quickly — the day before I wrote about Casey, I shared advice on how to handle sudden wealth — but it's dangerous to focus on quick wealth as a goal. I'm convinced that people get rich quickly by chance, not by intention. If get rich quick schemes worked, more people would do them. You'd read and hear documented tales of success. But they don't work. They're mostly scams designed to transfer money from saps like Casey into the hands of others.
My advice for Casey is this:
If you have a burning passion to make these sorts of plans succeed, then pursue them with only a portion of your finances. Follow tried and true personal finance wisdom with most of your money. Take 90% of what you earn, and do the boring stuff with it: pay off debt, start an emergency fund, invest for retirement. You are so young right now, that if you would invest just $5000 each year until you're 50, you could retire then as a millionaire. (Assuming 10% returns.) This is with almost no risk. Why try to get rich all at once? Why not ride it out?
If you're dead-set on trying to get rich quickly, then don't use all of your capital to do so. Do the safe stuff with 90% of your money. Save the remaining 10% to make real estate purchases. If you strike it rich, great. But if you don't, then at least you haven't mortgaged your future. This isn't ideal for most people, but you have the drive and desire, so it gives you something to play with. But this means that you'll have to work in order to meet your goals.
I don't want to kick Casey's dreams. Dreams are good, and I think people should pursue them with gusto. Too many people make a practice of telling others why their plans won't work instead of lending support. But when your dreams are at odds with reality, you need to re-evaluate.

Video: Apple's plastic iPhone 5C comes in a variety of colors
Video: Apple says 2 new iPhone models coming this year
CUPERTINO, Calif. - Apple says it is planning to release two new iPhone designs later this year so it can serve more customers.
The iPhone 5c, which will be available in five colors - green, blue, yellow, pink and white. CEO Tim Cook calls it "more fun and colorful" than any other iPhone.
The 5s has a 4-inch Retina display and is powered by Apple's A6 chip. It also has an 8 megapixel camera, live photo filters and a rear cover that lights up.
The iPhone 5c will cost $99 for a 16 gigabyte model and $199 for a 32 gigabyte model with a two-year wireless contract.
Apple says its next mobile operating system, iOS 7, will be available as a free download on Sept 18.
Craig Federighi, head of software at Apple Inc., said at an event at the company's Cupertino, Calif., headquarters that "downloading iOS 7 is like getting an all new device."
The new system can be downloaded on the iPhone 4 and later models, as well as on the tablets beginning with the iPad 2.

Washington apples are known worldwide for their beauty and crunch. One of the reasons these apples are able to maintain their attractiveness and quality during transport and marketing is the thin coat of natural wax applied in the warehouse.
Freshly harvested apples have their own waxy coating that protects them from shriveling and weight loss. Apples are washed at the fruit packing sheds to remove dust and chemical residues. This washing removes about half of the original apple wax which is replaced by a natural coating.
The natural wax added to protect Washington apples is usually carnauba or shellac. Both are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and have been used on a variety of foods for decades. These wax formulations are natural, non-petroleum based coatings.
Whether natural or applied, wax may whiten on the surface of fruits or vegetables if they have been subjected to excessive heat and/or excessive moisture. This whitening or chalky appearance is similar to that of a candy bar when you place it in the freezer.
Research has shown that apple waxing prevents moisture loss, enhances firmness retention and slows down the apple respiration rate.
In the most recent study conducted at the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service Laboratory in Wenatchee, WA, Red Delicious apples from Controlled Atmosphere (CA) storage were held at room temperature for eight days (duplicating how apples are treated in grocery stores). The unwaxed apples lost firmness faster than the waxed apples.
A second study showed the waxed apples also had less weight loss after eight days at room temperature. Research horticulturists from the USDA report "the use of wax on Red Delicious apples improved firmness and color, and reduced weight loss."
Other varieties of apples have also been shown to benefit from waxing.
All Washington apples are thoroughly washed and rinsed before they are waxed.
According to new U.S. Food and Drug Administration rules effective May 1994, retailers must list coated produce they sell in their produce department. Apples are frequently on the list which may include up to 21 other produce items that may have wax applied to them.
Some historians report wax has been used on produce since the early 1920s, but other experts say fruits and vegetables were waxed by housewives long before that to improve storage life.
As little as one pound of waxy coating will cover approximately 160,000 pieces of fruit and vegetables, according to the United Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Association. Only a drop or two of wax is needed to give a Washington apple a shiny, protective coating and help keep the crunch to the last bite.
Washing Wax off Apples
Although the wax used on Washington apples is safe to consume, according the US Food and Drug Administration, it is important to wash all fresh fruits and vegetables before eating. Use cool tap water when washing to avoid causing the wax to turn white or cloudy. Washing with soap or detergents is not recommended. For more information on wax and safe handling of produce, please visit the US FDA website at www.fda.gov

Donations are NOT tax deductible. More info.
The Oklahoma Coalition for Reproductive Justice is inviting interested members/supporters to join our board of directors. We are looking for energetic, committed people who want to make a contribution to reproductive health, rights and justice in Oklahoma through work for OCRJ.
About OCRJ
By Karo Chowning
The following is the text of remarks given by Karo Chowning representing the Oklahoma Coalition for Reproductive Justice at Women's Health Day at the Capitol, hosted by Planned Parenthood of the Heartland and Planned Parenthood of Central Oklahoma on April 9, 2015.
Thank you all for joining with Planned Parenthood today to support the health of Oklahoma's women and especially to advocate for reproductive health, rights, and justice. Today I want to talk to you about the framework of reproductive justice. There are great resources online delineating this framework, exploring the history of organizing around reproductive justice and thought leaders in this movement. I'll defer to that wealth of expertise and just spend a few minutes telling you what I have learned as a member of the Oklahoma Coalition for Reproductive Justice.
We simply cannot let legislators think we have no objections to their attacks on reproductive health, rights, and justice.
If you contacted the Senate HHS committee members, Thank You!
Now it's time to let more Senators know you oppose HB 1721 and HB 1409.

Darwin, C. R. to Oliver, Daniel

Thanks for reference to Annales des Sciences Naturelles.

Requests DO observe rate at which Australian Drosera closes.
- +
On detection of nitrogen in organic fluids.
Summary Add
Down Bromley Kent
My dear Sir
I am very much obliged for your information. I will look to Annales des Sienc. & have ordered the German Book.—
With respect to the Australian Drosera, the rate or quickness of closing is the point, on which I am very anxious to have a few observations. I shall be surprised, judging from my observations, if the Australian Drosera can distinguish dry organic & inorganic substances. I found that they closed equally (or nearly so) over any substance, but they released vegetable or inorganic substances much more quickly than flies or meat.—
The most curious results which I have arrived at, is the recognition by the leaves of fluids containing nitrogen & not containing nitrogen. This power of detecting nitrogen in fluids seems to me quite remarkable.—
Lindley does not refer to Buchanan or Wight, but he speaks in Veg. Kingdom p. 433 bottom of the movement of the Indian Drosera lunata; & I see in Steudel's Nomenclator the names of Buchanan & Wight in relation to this species.—
I am surprised, if my instructions were followed by Croker that Leschenaultia has not made pods.—
I am sorry to hear that the plants in the ``isosceles beds'' have not seeded better. All experiments require a tantalising amount of patience.
With sincere thanks for all your kindness | Believe me, My dear Sir | Yours sincerely | C. Darwin
It might be worth if you like the job while to put a small drop of milk & of saliva on a leaf of the Australian Drosera. Our Drosera likes milk better than any other drink.—

- f1 2917.f1Dated by the relationship to the letter to Daniel Oliver, 11 September [1860].

- f2 2917.f2The reference is probably to two papers about the leaves and glands of Drosera rotundifolia published in the Annales des Sciences Naturelles (Botanique) in 1855 (Groenland 1855 and Tr´ecul 1855). These papers are both cited in Insectivorous plants, pp. 1 n., 5 n. See also letter to Daniel Oliver, 27 [September 1860].
- +
- f3 2917.f3The reference is probably to the book written by Theodor Rudolf Joseph Nitschke on the physiology of D. rotundifolia (Nitschke 1859). CD seems never to have obtained a copy of this work. In Insectivorous plants, p. 1 n., he cited papers by Nitschke from the Botanische Zeitung for 1860 and 1861. Nitschke wrote two papers on D. rotundifolia in each of these volumes (Nitschke 1860a, 1860b, 1861a, and 1861b) that CD believed were `by far the most important ones' to have been published on Drosera.

- f4 2917.f4CD's experiments on Australian Drosera are reported in Insectivorous plants, pp. 280--1, 281--3.

- f5 2917.f5See letter to Daniel Oliver, 11 September [1860].

- f6 2917.f6Charles William Crocker was foreman of the propagating department at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. See letter to Daniel Oliver, 11 September [1860].

- f7 2917.f7Milk and saliva were among the first nitrogenous fluids that CD used in experiments to test the response of D. rotundifolia to various chemicals (Insectivorous plants, pp. 79--80). CD stated that he carried out these experiments because he `was led to believe that the leaves absorbed nutritious matter from the insects which they captured' (Insectivorous plants, p. 76). His notes from this period on the effects of various substances on Drosera are in DAR 60.1.

From 1st July 2007, all retailers of electrical goods must comply with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) legislation.
This is a scheme to prevent all such waste being disposed of in general landfill sites and to promote recycling of components and materials. The legislation aims to minimise the impact of electrical and electronic equipment on the environment by creating products with recycling in mind and encouraging reuse, recycling, and recovery of WEEE.
How do I know what product is "WEEE"? The definition of a WEEE product is one whose primary function is dependent on electrical currents to carry out the main function, e.g. a toaster. However, some product, such as a child's soft toy with an electric circuit, is not classed as WEEE as its primary function is a toy. For further details on product definitions, please click here.
You may also take the item(s) to your local authority Civic Amenity Site if this is more convenient.

Asserting Influence and Power in the 21st Century: The NLRB Focuses on Assisting Non-Union Employees
by Elizabeth Milito
Federalist Society
August 04, 2014
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) was conceived of as an independent federal agency charged with conducting union elections and investigating and remedying unfair labor practices. Over the last few years, however, the NLRB has expansively reinterpreted its mandate, interfering now in employer policies, practices, and actions that were not once its concern. For instance, the Board has undertaken new initiatives to "educate" the 93% of workers not in unions on their rights to organize, and has all but prohibited employees from being fired for anything they say online – no matter how egregious. Employers should be alert for additional "labor-friendly" initiatives. The NLRB's expansion of the law affects all employers, whether their employees are represented by a union or not. But many recent decisions by the Board will be more likely to affect non-union employers.

After a way too adventurous night for us, we ate a quiet breakfast outside at my local market before heading to the Met. AB had never been before and the art history nerd in me loved getting a chance to show her around and explain some of the works. Lots of pictures below!
|Sitting on the Met steps
|Stopping in front of our favorite American exhibit
|Gorgeous ceilings
|Medici pottery
|She found her knight in shining armor!
|European Painting Gallery-one of the my favorites at the Met
After our run at the Met, we met up with one of our other friends, FL, and she strolled with us down Madison and into Barney's. We had a great time creating wish lists in our heads.

This exchange is from Planet Damnation. I am posting it here because it's so fabulously British it defies explanation to anyone who hasn't experienced Britishness at its finest. The setting is the first Gulf War.
RAF Wing Commander David Farquahar had a briefcase with a laptop containing the entire Gulf War briefing plans. Said briefcase was in an unmarked RAF car when Farquahar stopped at a used car lot in Acton (suburb of London) to look in their showroom.
The computer was returned by the thief with a note "Dear Sir, I am a common thief and I love my Queen and country. Whoever lost this should be bloody hung. Yours, Edward."
I find this to be utterly priceless.

When I found a Polaroid picture of a young girl with her eyes closed and expressionless lips, I assumed someone had thrown it out because it was a mistake. The day my mother died, I stumbled across the photo again but now, there was a strange smile on her face.

The Fresh Hop Warrior IPA from Left Hand Brewing Company in Longmont, Colorado pours out a reddish-copper in color with some small suspended sediment and is topped with just over a finger of white, dense head that slowly reduces down to thin film with a small collar. On the nose, some malt sweetness but mostly fresh, hoppy aromas. Aromas of pine, citrus rind, caramel and a little flower. In the mouth, the hops shine with a subtle malt backing. Flavors of grapefruit rind, pine, flower, earth, a little bread and toffee. Medium bodied. Moderate carbonation. Sheets of lacing on the glass. The mouthfeel is fairly clean with just a little slickness. The finish is long, slightly dry and bitter with the malt sweetness fading away first so that the hops can shine.
A really good fresh hop IPA with lovely hop flavor. The hops are the star in this brew. One of the better Fresh Hop IPAs available. Recommended.

Because I think people are moaning about the award being shown over 11 people dying.
...Yeah, it's a travesty.
Kinda missing the point there, bub...
With 3 British actors nominated in the top acting categories (that's 30%), let alone in the other categories... why wouldnt we be interested? It's not like british film making hasnt ever won an oscar before... like, say, last year for example or any of the other years when British talent (whether as actor, director, writer, producer, dressmaker or whatever) has won something... you'd think only US films and those five nominated "foreign films" are the only films that ever get made!
And surely that's without, maybe, just maybe, just being interested in the results and the event... we've just had three weeks of Winter Olympic coverage and it was 30 odd years since the last Br

Almost 70 percent of Floridians approve of legalizing medical marijuana, but that does not seem to be influencing the motivations of state lawmakers.
A proposed medical marijuana bill, the Cathy Jordan Medical Cannabis Act, has stalled out in the Senate and House, unable to get a hearing. At the same time, a bill that would ban bongs and pipes in the state was unanimously approved by a Senate committee.
Representative Katie Edwards spoke out at a press conference Monday stating, "Shame on us as a Legislature for not taking the opportunity to hear this [medical marijuana] bill this year." Edwards was the bill's sponsor. She became passionate about legalizing medical marijuana after speaking with a number of cancer patients and hearing how MMJ helped to alleviate their symptoms.
She told ABC, "I thought, 'these are real people' and I cannot turn a blind eye and stick my head in the sand and pretend like it's not happening, because it is."
Medical marijuana opponent Representative Jimmy Patronis, has argued that people who want to use medical marijuana should move to a state where it's legal, rather than tryto change Florida's marijuana policies.
Some are hoping to bypass the House and Senate by collecting voter signatures to get an amendment legalizing medical marijuana on the November 2014 ballot. Orlando-based fundraiser John Morgan is leading the charge in Florida, taking on the task of collecting 700,000 signatures in order to get the measure on the ballot.
While Edwards is not opposed to this, she wishes the legislature would take a more proactive role. She explained, "If voters mandate this upon us, we're going to be reactionary. I'd rather take a proactive role. We could have a regulatory framework in place."
Edwards plans to submit a compromised version of her medical marijuana bill next session, limiting medical cannabis use to oil, pill, or topical ointment in order to distance the perception of medical marijuana from recreational marijuana.
While a medical marijuana bill has floundered in Florida, there has been no hesitation from a committee that voted unanimously to prohibit the sale of bongs and pipes in Florida. SB 1140 would prohibit the retail sale of certain 'drug paraphernalia' including "pipes and smoking devices." This bill was passed quickly on Monday by the Committee on Criminal and Civil Justice on a vote of 6-0.

The Centre for Health Protection will buy 268,000 flu shots for a total of HK$13 million nearly twice as much as it spent last year at HK$6.7 million for 280,000 vaccines.
Just 240,000 doses were used in the 2013-14 program.
The subsidy for the flu shots by some 1,600 private doctors who are enrolled in the program will be raised from HK$130 to HK$160 in both the Childhood Influenza Vaccination Subsidy Scheme for those aged six months to five years old and the Elderly Vaccination Subsidy Scheme starting on October 6.
"We hope this will encourage more eligible young children and elderly persons to come forward for vaccination early to gain protection before the arrival of the winter influenza season," said CHP controller Leung Ting-hung. The quadrivalent vaccine, to be supplied from November 3, will be introduced into the government vaccination program for eligible groups at public clinics and hospitals, as well as residential care homes for the elderly and persons with disabilities for free.
The quadrivalent vaccine, which has been on the market since last year, will contain flu type A California H1N1, type A Texas H3N2, influenza B Massachusetts 2012, and B Brisbane 2008 virus.
The trivalent vaccine will contain just the two A strains and the B Massachusetts strain.
"The quadrivalent vaccine will provide additional protection of up to 7 percent," said Leung, adding that the trivalent vaccine offers 70 to 90 percent protection against the circulating flu strains.

SIA Flashback – The DeVo: One That Got Away
Pop quiz: What do the DeVaux and the AMC Gremlin have in common, aside from being small cars built for the American market? As we learn in Keith Marvin's article in SIA #102 on the De-Vo – one of the DeVaux's unsuccessful successors – both were introduced on April Fool's Day. However, while the DeVaux sold poorly, the De-Vo never sold at all, and apparently just one such vehicle ended up being built.

Anne Hathaway Strikes a Seductive Pose for Tod's
She's been the face of Lancome's Magnifique fragrance since 2008, and now Anne Hathaway has landed her first spokesmodel gig for a major fashion label: Tod's.

AMAZING Theme I love it!!!
This is a great theme, but more transparencies would really be nice
Very nice Job.
GOODSHOW! would pay for it if it was more transparent
I would download this immediately however you should try fixing the messaging. Make it black in the background with a neon border (if possible of course). The green looks too bright in comparison to the rest of the theme. Other than that I absolutely love it!
Love the black launcher pages.... not to into the bright green messaging screen though.

I've went through 4 sets of blades already this season. 2 Gator which are ground down so thin they snapped the gator teeth off. And 2 sets of high lift blades that are doing better but they seem to be wearing down now too. I would say 3/4 of my lawns are pathetic half worn bahia grass or sand lots.
For $45 a set of blades either kind. I just don't get why they are wearing down so fast. If I drive on a lawn faster than half speed I have grass that pops back up too. So I crawl about 1/3 speed to mow with a nice look. Any ideas?
With gas, blades, mower repairs, oil changes, tires, new weed trimmers, line, a vehicle to wear out. I don't see how people are driving around with nice rigs. I have a decent rig with a Dixie Chopper but I got all my stuff used in a super deal. People in this area don't want to pay more than $65 or $75 a month for a lawn. I really don't get it. I'm making it but just barely. But its because I have no mower payments, house payments or van payments. I paid cash for everything. I really don't see how people are getting by.
Sand will dull blades out VERY fast. Bahia will dull blades out very fast. For 28 accounts, you should probably be changing out 2x/wk....$65-$75/mo for weekly cutting isn't much. For a basic now and go on a 1/4 acre lot at most I would be at $100-$110/mo.

RANDOM DOPE> The Toyota Swagger Wagon
As far as I recall, Toyota has been running these hilarious videos with the Sienna Family since the Super Bowl. (If my memory serves correctly; but I dunno, my favorite beer, Shiner Bock may have confused me… LOL.
Basically, this is one of the best automobile advertising campaigns I have ever seen. All the other minivan ads out there consist of selling how many kids, along with their gear you can fit in them. Not Toyota though! Toyota went a whole different route!
They created the "Sienna Family" who is basically a trendy, full of themselves family, whose commercials are awesome. Their latest is the Swagger Wagon music video, which has topped them all. Not only could I not stop laughing, but the "sipping tea, keep my pinky up," along with the little girl pop & locking it made me lose it.
I may not be a fan of minivans, but this family knows how to roll hard – well, at least the writers of the ad campaign do, haha.

CARSPOTTING> The Tale of a Three Rotor RX7
The story of David's FD3S RX7 starts way back in 1994. He is the original owner of this black beauty - he took it right off the showroom floor. And since he's the only owner of this car, he actually knows everything that has gone into the car and everything it has been through. Here's a little mind blower to start us off. With the exception of the Pettit rear flares and 99 spec front end, the car's paint is as completely original as the owner.
I was no stranger to the story of David's epic tale, as I have been following it since the beginning. All the details of his journey are logged in the RX7club.com forum. If you decide to look it up, be prepared to invest a few days of reading - it's a long story and completely surreal. In fact, his story seems even more surreal than reading his daily updates in the 7club forum thread when you actually get the chance to hear him tell it. But, since you probably won't get that chance, I'll tell it. I promise I'll keep it short. Well, as short as I possibly can with a story like this one. Read more...
NEWSWORTHY> F1 Season Start in Bahrain
Alright everybody, I know we don't normally feature Formula 1 and other forms of open wheel racing on this website, but I just wanted to share this because I personally am pretty excited for the start of the 2010 F1 season! This Sunday, March 14th is the kick off race for Formula 1 on the twenty-three turn Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix.
This is going to be one incredible season! Not only because of the return of Michael Schumacher, racing for the Mercedes GP team; but with the new FIA rules, teams will add another set of alterations to their strategies. Last year was a huge change to the rules, but this year, a few more were added to the mix. To start, refueling during the race has been banned for the first time since 1993. Now teams are running more than triple the size of last year's petrol tanks – which means drivers must monitor their tires and brake wear even more closely. What does this mean for pit stops? With just tire changes, we can expect to see solid 3-second pit stops for all the teams. Red Bull is boasting they can perform a four-tire-change in 1.9 seconds!!! (I can't get 1 lug nut off my car that fast, LOL) Lets see if this gives them another advantage to taking the checkered flag! (more…)
VIDEO> Simply Clean & Stance in Orlando
Simply Clean from Bluemotion on Vimeo.
Back in January I covered the Simply Clean + Stance event in Orlando Florida, which was completely awesome. I am saddened to hear that the next event may not be till November of this year… sad face!! I wish these guys would do a rotating event every 4-5 months or so to help promote proper car building. Cars with sunken wheels are 8 years ago people; change with the times! Flush wheels and no drop don't count either!
Anyway, the video is awesome and so is the sound track. Quan Vu at Bluemotion did an awesome job, and from the looks of it, it involved a Canon 5D Mark II. Rock on man – for his first car meet video, I am simply stunned. The song "More More More" is from the upcoming LP by SOY Is Real… so if you think it's dope like I do, just watch the video over and over again.
Lastly, BIG THANKS to Simply Clean's Nickoli for giving us the first shout out at the end of the video. You know I will be at the next one!!

WEBMINING> Wagenwerks and DubKorps AWOL Teaser
AWOL – The Teaser from wagenwerks on Vimeo.
First off, I recently realized something. Just because I may have seen a video, it doesn't mean everyone else has. This being said, my New Year's Resolution will be to pass on video links to every bad ass video I have seen.
So, I bring you a Wagenwerks and DubKorps video from 3 months back. This was the first time I had heard of DubKorps, so you Euro guys hold your horses!! I am incredibly familiar with the Wagenwerks videos and the guys who make them. Hey! They are from my home state of Virginia! After watching this video I suggest you check out their website Wagenwerks.net (their DVD is beast by the way) then hop on their Vimeo channel and watch everything you have not yet seen.
These guys produce legit videos. Their film and editing style are top notch in my opinion. If anyone actually could muster up the ability to claim their videos suck and back it up with a proper argument, send an email my way! I have a knuckle sandwich my mom made me a few years ago that has been waiting to be gobbled up. HAHA!!!
And one more thing… Our readers will begin to learn a few things about me… I don't just stick to one car scene, I love them all (in a manly kind of way). While I do have a passion for rotaries, I follow the Euro, Honda, and Toyota scenes just as much. I even ride a fixed gear bike, (that would be a fixie for those of you want to call it that!) Bet you might never have guessed that!
(In case you are wondering: First song: Hollywood Undead_ City , Second song: Innerpartysystem_ Don't Stop ) Both of which are amazing bands.

WEBMINING> Trial Tuning Spirit 20B FD3S RX7
I flew out to L.A. this week to spend Christmas with my family, which gave me the opportunity to meet up with Antonio Alvendia and Edward Uche for the first time. Of course cars were a topic covered quite a bit as the night went on and RX7 project cars were brought to light… This of course brought on the discussion of dream builds and this video I am posting now. I honestly can not give you a solid figure of how many times I have watched this video ever since it was posted on Youtube. I would guess Edward couldn't give you a guesstimate either.
What I can tell you is the car was built by Trial Tuning Spirit. The FD3S has a 3 rotor swap, running ITBs and and a slew of custom parts all done to make it a beast of a track car. Just listen to the beautiful music it makes – who wouldn't want this in their garage???
I must say though. On my wedding day, I want a car much like this waiting for me at the end of the ceremony to take us away. Hopefully, rotors will be tied behind the car on rope to drag down the street behind us.

That's enough about me... Let's talk about the car scene in Florida. Before moving here, I heard lots of talk about Florida having a terrible car scene. I must say, since I relocated to this amazingly warm state, I'd have to disagree with that completely. My view point has completely changed. There is quite a large scene for car enthusiasts that are into Hondas, VWs, Toyotas, Nissans, etc. There are car events every weekend, from huge blowouts to smaller 60 car beach meets. I legitimately mean every weekend something is going on. Read more...

After storms caused significant damage in much of the Mid-Atlantic region, Susquehanna Bank is offering low-cost loans to affected residents to finance clean-up and repair of damaged homes.
The bank is offering unsecured term loans of up to $10,000 at a rate of 4.00%, with repayment due within 5 years. Applicants will need to provide a contractor's estimate for clean-up or repair work for damage to their primary residence resulting from Hurricane Sandy. The bank's standard underwriting criteria will apply.
"Our employees, neighbors and friends are among those whose homes were damaged by Hurricane Sandy," said William J. Reuter, Susquehanna Bank Chairman. "As both a community bank and community partner, Susquehanna recognizes it's our responsibility to step in and provide support where we can. This loan program not only offers homeowners an option to finance necessary repairs, it's being offered at a rate that is lower than conventional loans."
The storm damage recovery loans are available in Susquehanna Bank's market area in central and eastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey, Maryland, and Berkeley County, West Virginia. Interested applicants should contact a local Susquehanna Bank branch; contact information is available through the ATM/Branch Locator on the website www.susquehanna.net. More information is available by visiting susquehanna.net/stormhelp or calling the Customer Service Center at 800.311.3182.
In addition to the unsecured term loans offered through this storm relief program, Susquehanna Bank also has a variety of home equity loans and lines of credit that homeowners may be able to use to help finance residential clean-up and repair work.
