Project Exploration and Chicago Youth Centers join forces, bringing STEM learning opportunities!
Partnerships are valuable to Project Exploration!
Project Exploration (PE) builds high quality STEM education programs through effective and collaborative partnerships. As PE continues to think creatively about how to expand program opportunities to key Chicago communities that we know are STEM deserts, partnerships are key. We are pleased to relaunch Science Digest in partnership with Chicago Youth Centers.
Through the Hive Chicago, Project Exploration and Chicago Youth Centers worked to identify an opportunity to partner and build STEM access. The Chicago Youth Centers (CYC), educate and support children and families so they can succeed in the 21st century. They aim to equalize access to the tools, experiences, and resources needed for youth ages 3-18 to persist academically and develop socially and emotionally. Steven Willis our CYC partner is the STEM Program Manager and is key in helping us build the best experiences for their students. Steven’s role supports the CYC mission by building, developing and providing fun and inspiring STEM teaching and learning space and programs for their youth that supports the successful development of their participants. Chicago Youth Centers’ work with youth help spark and inspire youth to develop pathways to success by helping them identify skills and talents they have a passion for and by helping the develop their 21st Century skills: Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking and Creativity.
The Chicago Youth Centers is partnering with Project Exploration helps them advance their mission by helping to provide inspiration and empowerment to youth participant by having STEM professional come to our communities and communicate about various STEM Career pathways. Steven Willis shares, that in his experience he has seen how STEM programs done well really help students develop skills that allow them to be better prepared for success in school as well in their chosen career. The skills that STEM programs hone are most notably critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creativity, the 4C’s.
Science Digests originally emerged as a monthly program to engage PE students and alumni in exploring a wide range of STEM disciplines, while working alongside STEM professionals. With Project Exploration’s relationship-based model structured programs around intentional long-term relationships between students, staff, and scientists, Science Digests provided an opportunity for these relationships to grow. Maintaining the principle of working with students to expose them to various STEM topics, Science Digests 2.0 are also helping to build opportunities for families to join! Evidence has shown that parents and family engagement is vital in encouraging and supporting their children’s science learning at home and throughout their community.
The Chicago Youth Centers are located in Bridgeport, Bronzeville, North Lawndale and South Shore. Steven works at the Bronzeville location where they are experiencing a transitioning community as a result of gentrification. The Bronzeville community works to establish or reestablish partners and programs that bring value to the community. As a result, CYC has been intentional about transforming their teaching and learning spaces so that they can offer participants access centers to provide cutting edge machines, equipment and programs to reinforce how they value what CYC has to offer them within the Bronzeville neighborhood; their changing community.
Major highlights of the PE and CYC partnership to relaunching Science Digests; developing and implementing CYC Steven Willis’s first HIVE funded project and the wonderful and eye-opening experience of working on a project that involves every Out-of-school time (OST) site, community and staff of Chicago Youth Centers. Finally, Project Exploration is thrilled to find more ways to Change the Face of Science. It is both challenging and exciting for both organizations.

Back pain can stem from several causes. One such cause if called the “layering effect”. During a person’s lifetime many small traumas can occur to the body, and they are continually encapsulated and absorbed into the muscles and soft tissues. The body does this so that the whole body is not incapacitated and you can get up in the morning and get to work! But the body can only take so much before it begins to complain in a big way. So, maybe you are bending down to pick up a newspaper and your back seizes up. Well, that can be because it’s your body’s way of saying it is the last straw to all of the abuse it has taken over the years.
Another cause for back pain can be a sudden, large trauma, such as a car accident or major surgery. Someone once said that a car accident is surprise trauma to the body, and surgery is organized trauma to the body. Either way, the body reacts in the same manner. Again, it will seize up and encapsulate the affected area, and try its best to function through the pain. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t. When it doesn’t, that is where CranioSacral Therapy can help.
CranioSacral Therapy is a light touch healing modality, in which the client is clothed on the treatment table. How can light touch be so effective? The therapist has been extensively trained to listen to your body and pinpoint the root cause of your discomfort. This is done by reading the flow of your cerebrospinal fluid – the fluid surrounding your spinal chord that runs up and down your body from your sacrum (lower back) to your brain. Your body flexes and extends to this rhythm, and where there is an obstruction in the rhythm, the therapist knows that area needs treatment. In CranioSacral Therapy it all about soft tissue release, so that the affected area can relax and realign. A really good CS therapist can find the exact locations that are causing the pain, and treat accordingly. As the tissues relax, the tightness, inflammation, and soreness start to subside. The therapist also treats other areas of the body that have compensated for the pain, so that all of your body parts can once again be realigned and work as a whole. This is called “integrated therapy”. CranioSacral Therapy has been around in the health field for about 35 years. It was developed by Dr. John Upledger, who established the Upledger Institute for CranioSacral Therapy’s continuing development and research. There are thousands of CST practitioners around the world, many of them incorporating CS skills within their professions. Others treat clients solely by this wonderful healing method. In either case CranioSacral Therapy can help you get “back” into the swing of things ASAP!

Railo Server, commonly referred to as Railo (/ˈraɪloʊ/ RY-loh), is open source software which implements the general-purpose CFML server-side scripting language, often used to create dynamic websites, web applications and intranet systems. CFML is a dynamic language supporting multiple programming paradigms and runs on the Java virtual machine (JVM).
Railo was created by the Swiss company Railo Technologies GmbH, intended as a high performance alternative to Adobe ColdFusion. In 2008, Railo switched to an open source community-driven model, and became a JBoss project. The Railo Open Source project is led by Railo Technologies, with development work funded by consulting and support contracts, but anyone may contribute code for consideration.
Railo was named after an alien dog in Star Trek Enterprise. The dog is actually named Rhylo, but written phonetically in German it is Railo. Thus, Railo can be pronounced either as rhy-lo or as rai-lo - both are acceptable.
Railo major releases have a codename of notable and loyal dogs from history.
Railo began in 2002 as a student project to compile CFML code into PHP, a choice made due to the ubiquity of PHP, however it was found that this did not give the desired performance and stability, and the decision was made to switch to the Java platform instead.
The project was successful enough that it was decided to continue to develop into a full product. Several alpha and beta releases were made before the official 1.0 release in April 2006. Railo continued to be developed but was relatively unknown to many CFML developers, until June 2008 at the Scotch on the Rocks conference in Edinburgh, when Railo Technologies used the Day 2 keynote to announce a partnership with JBoss and a switch to open source.
In May 2012, at the cf.Objective conference, the foundation of "The Railo Company Ltd" was announced, a Private Limited Company, comprising the Swiss company Railo Technologies GmbH in conjunction with five other companies who operated in the CFML industry.
On 29 January 2015, the Lucee project, a fork of the Railo 4.2 codebase, was announced by the original developer of Railo, who stated that he would not be working further on Railo. The other developers have confirmed they will also be focusing solely on Lucee, and - although no official statement has been made by The Railo Company - the community consensus is that further development on the Railo project is unlikely.
On 19 July 2016, The Railo Company was dissolved.
Alpha 1 2004-04-10 The first official release of the Railo CFML engine.
Beta 1 2005-01-16 The first beta release of Railo.
RC1 2005-09-23 The first release candidate of Railo was presented to the German CFUG in Munich.
3.1.0.000 2009-08-12 First Open Source release of Railo.
3.3.1.000 2011-11-03 Added built-in support for ORM and many other features.
Railo runs on the JVM as a servlet, and will work with any servlet container (e.g. Apache Tomcat, Eclipse Jetty) or application server (e.g. JBoss AS, GlassFish). It is possible to connect a web server (e.g. Apache, IIS, nginx, Cherokee) in front, using connectors such as mod jk, mod proxy, or equivalent, but this is not required by Railo.
Railo has an installer for Linux, macOS, and Windows, which bundles Apache Tomcat. There is also a pre-configured Railo Express download using Jetty.
From v4.0 onwards, Railo will have a command line version, enabling CFML to be used as a general-purpose language, outside of the servlet environment.
A primary aim of Railo was to provide the functionality of ColdFusion using less resources and giving better performance, and the Railo Technologies team continue to "treat slowness as a bug" as a core development philosophy. Many performance tests have shown Railo to perform faster than other CFML engines.
In addition to this, Railo attempts to resolve many inconsistencies found in traditional CFML. These are either forced changes in behaviour, or configurable options in the Railo Administrator.
The Railo Technologies team have always been open to feedback and active at CFML community events, and are keen to remind people that Railo is a community project.
Railo Technologies also creates strong technology partnerships with CFML software companies, including Blue River Interactive Group (developers of Mura CMS), CONTENS Software GmbH (developers of CONTENS CMS), and Intergral GmbH (developers of FusionReactor and FusionDebug), to help ensure their software works well with Railo. In addition, Railo Technologies offer formal "Partner Programs" for Solutions (development), Hosting, and Training.
The Railo Application Server currently averages 7,000 downloads (and growing) per month.
CFML has built-in functionality for preventing code injection, via the cfqueryparam tag, and functions such as HtmlEditFormat, XmlFormat, JsStringFormat. There are also third-party CFML implementations of the OWASP Enterprise Security API, and the AntiSamy project.
One of the key architecture decisions with Railo was to follow the JEE servlet model, with support for multiple independent web contexts on a single server. This is a key security factor, as it prevents unrelated applications from interfering with each other, as may happen on a shared ColdFusion server (which only has a single web context).
Railo implements the CFML language - see the CFML syntax section for examples as well as CFScript.
CFML contains two syntaxes, a tag-based syntax (not XML compliant) and a C-style syntax called cfscript.
Arrays in CFML are indexed from one, not from zero.
CFML supports both ordered and named function arguments, or a combination.
CFML does not have static variables.
Railo is open-source LGPL v2.1 software. ACF is proprietary technology.
Railo uses a multi web context architecture, compared to ACF's single web context.
Railo allows you create "built-in" user-defined functions, using standard CFML.
Railo is unable to decrypt (or execute) templates that have been encrypted with ACF's encryption mechanism.
Railo has a significantly faster release cycle for major, minor, and patch releases.
In Railo, scopes always take priority. In ACF, creating a variable named "Url" may block access to the Url scope. In Railo, the variable can only be accessed as "Variables.Url".
Railo only searches for CFCs inside the custom tag path if defined accordingly in the administrator (it has a distinct CFC path instead).
Railo allows using object methods. So instead of using arrayAppend(arr, "value") one can write: arr.append("value").append("anotherValue").
Lucee - fork of Railo currently supported by Railo's original developers.
Adobe ColdFusion - the original CFML engine.
Open BlueDragon - another Open Source CFML engine.

A man uses a taping knife to skim coat a drywall panel.
Measuring tape is often used to hang drywall.
A utility knife is a necessary part of drywall installation.
In the final step, the excess plaster must be sanded down using an electric sander fitted with drywall sandpaper.
Putty knives and taping knives are needed to plaster installed drywall panels.
Drywall is available in many sizes.
Most professionals choose to use a flat hand trowel for mudding drywall joints, because it gives the smoothest finish.
Drywall construction is popular for interior walls and ceilings because the materials are relatively cheap and easy to install, as long as the proper drywall tools are used. An individual or team who plans on hanging drywall panels will need many standard construction tools, including pencils, straightedges, measuring tapes, utility knives, and sandpaper. Most jobs can be completed with common tools such as keyhole saws, hammers, and electric screwdrivers, though having specialized tools like drywall hammers and taping knives. With dedication and the proper drywall tools at hand, large projects can be completed with ease and efficiency.
Drywall sheets usually need to be trimmed to size before they can be hung. An installer should take careful measurements and calculate the shape and dimensions of each panel, then draw cutting lines on the sheets with a pencil and straightedge. T-squares are useful for drawing long lines and maintaining appropriate angles when cutting pieces. Using a utility knife, an individual can follow the pencil line to cut partway though a sheet, and then bend the panel at the cut until it breaks away. Imperfect cuts can be straightened up using a metal file or a utility knife.
Nails or screws can be used to secure drywall panels to wall and ceiling frames. Some people use standard hammers or electric screwdrivers, though specialized drywall tools are recommended to ensure that nails or screws are inserted just far enough to not mar a panel. A drywall hammer has a convex head that prevents puncturing a sheet when securing a nail into place. Screw guns designed for drywall can be adjusted to prevent screws from going all the way through a panel. Holes for lighting fixtures or electrical boxes can be cut using either a manual or power keyhole saw.
Plastering installed panels requires additional drywall tools. Putty knives and sturdy taping knives are commonly used to apply and smooth a plaster mixture to walls. Nail holes, seams between panels, and imperfect edges can all be sufficiently covered during the plastering process. Since corners can be tricky to navigate with standard taping knives, an installer may want to invest in a set of corner knives, drywall tools that can delicately achieve the ideal finish.
The final step in a drywall job is sanding down bumps and excess plaster, and applying a coat of texture if desired. Sanding can be done by hand or with electric tools equipped with specialized drywall sandpaper. A sanded wall that is still uneven or reveals gaps in the panels may need to undergo additional rounds of plastering and sanding until it is perfected. As a finishing touch, spray texture is commonly used on ceilings and walls to improve their aesthetics.
What Is a Drywall Hoist?
What Is a Drywall Screwdriver?
What are the Different Types of Plastering Courses?
What is a Drywall Nail?
@spotiche5- There is a hand tool available that holds sandpaper for sanding. This type of tool allows you to wrap the sandpaper around it for added strength when you are sanding.
A sandpaper holder is easy to use and inexpensive to buy. This type of drywall tool also works with any type of sandpaper, including the type with a medium grit which is probably best for sanding drywall.
@spotiche5- I think that you will be able to fix your drywall problem by using sandpaper to finish the installation, provided that you don't have a large area to sand. Sanding large sections of drywall requires an electric sander because it is time consuming and tiring to do the job by hand. However, a minor repair should be easy to sand.
When it comes to choosing sandpaper as a drywall tool, I think that you should choose a finish that isn't too fine or too coarse. Fine sandpaper won't do the job, and the kind with a coarse finish might cause damage to the drywall.
When you go to your local hardware or home improvement store, carefully check the sandpaper packages to find the type that has a medium finish. If you are in doubt, ask a sales representative which sandpaper he or she recommends for sanding drywall by hand.
I have a small section of drywall in my home that I need to fix. I don't want to invest in a sander for this minor repair job, so I'm wondering if plain sandpaper as a drywall tool will do the job. Also, should I choose the type that has a fine or coarse finish?

drywall sheets usually need to be trimmed to size before they can be hung. an installer should take careful measurements and calculate the shape and dimensions of each panel, then draw cutting lines on the sheets with a pencil and straightedge. t-squares are useful for drawing long lines and maintaining appropriate angles when cutting pieces. using a utility knife, an individual can follow the pencil line to cut partway though a sheet, and then bend the panel at the cut until it breaks away. imperfect cuts can be straightened up using a metal file or a utility knife.
nails or screws can be used to secure drywall panels to wall and ceiling frames. some people use standard hammers or electric screwdrivers, though specialized drywall tools are recommended to ensure that nails or screws are inserted just far enough to not mar a panel. a drywall hammer has a convex head that prevents puncturing a sheet when securing a nail into place. screw guns designed for drywall can be adjusted to prevent screws from going all the way through a panel. holes for lighting fixtures or electrical boxes can be cut using either a manual or power keyhole saw.
plastering installed panels requires additional drywall tools. putty knives and sturdy taping knives are commonly used to apply and smooth a plaster mixture to walls. nail holes, seams between panels, and imperfect edges can all be sufficiently covered during the plastering process. since corners can be tricky to navigate with standard taping knives, an installer may want to invest in a set of corner knives, drywall tools that can delicately achieve the ideal finish.
the final step in a drywall job is sanding down bumps and excess plaster, and applying a coat of texture if desired. sanding can be done by hand or with electric tools equipped with specialized drywall sandpaper. a sanded wall that is still uneven or reveals gaps in the panels may need to undergo additional rounds of plastering and sanding until it is perfected. as a finishing touch, spray texture is commonly used on ceilings and walls to improve their aesthetics.
what is a drywall hoist?
what is a drywall screwdriver?
what are the different types of plastering courses?
what is a drywall nail?
@spotiche5- there is a hand tool available that holds sandpaper for sanding. this type of tool allows you to wrap the sandpaper around it for added strength when you are sanding.
a sandpaper holder is easy to use and inexpensive to buy. this type of drywall tool also works with any type of sandpaper, including the type with a medium grit which is probably best for sanding drywall.
@spotiche5- i think that you will be able to fix your drywall problem by using sandpaper to finish the installation, provided that you don't have a large area to sand. sanding large sections of drywall requires an electric sander because it is time consuming and tiring to do the job by hand. however, a minor repair should be easy to sand.
when it comes to choosing sandpaper as a drywall tool, i think that you should choose a finish that isn't too fine or too coarse. fine sandpaper won't do the job, and the kind with a coarse finish might cause damage to the drywall.
when you go to your local hardware or home improvement store, carefully check the sandpaper packages to find the type that has a medium finish. if you are in doubt, ask a sales representative which sandpaper he or she recommends for sanding drywall by hand.
i have a small section of drywall in my home that i need to fix. i don't want to invest in a sander for this minor repair job, so i'm wondering if plain sandpaper as a drywall tool will do the job. also, should i choose the type that has a fine or coarse finish?

Carole Middleton wows in pale pink: Mother of the Bride Special | Is This Mutton?
The wedding season is in full swing. Pippa Middleton has finally married. and mother of the bride Carole Middleton was immaculate as always in pale pink Catherine Walker (above). A coat dress, or dress with coat option as she wore at the wedding of daughter Kate, are elegant and timeless options for the mother of the bride.
There's a tendency for Mothers of the Bride or Groom to go "off piste" and either wear something incredibly frumpy, or something too far Out There in an effort to look cooler and trendier than their counterpart.
Most MOTB/G are likely to be in their 50s and this is a good opportunity to shine in great tailoring and a colour that really suits you. A coat and dress combo, like those sported by Carole and the Duchess of Cornwall, is perfect.
One of the snags with most of the Mother of Bride/Groom outfits is that they tend to come in sugary colours which don't do much for a lot of us. I notice a lot of pale pink and light grey this year. My advice is to find a good dressmaker by recommendation, or meet one or two if you don't know any,. You can then have the luxury of choosing the exact colour you know suits you. For me, one of my best shades is lilac - and I was lucky enough to find something off the peg.
Two years ago, I was dithering about what to wear for my step son's wedding. At first I wanted something that wasn't too old fashioned, that I could wear again.
I fell in love with a fuchsia pink Ted Baker dress but it was in the most unflattering material known to man. Finally, I decided to go with a traditional MOTB retailer, Gina Bacconi, and buy an outfit I would wear just once. I also had the opportunity, for the evening event, to wear something else, and for that I had a Joseph Ribkoff dress.
The Gina Bacconi dress in lilac had a guipure lace shrug. I decided to go with accessories in the same colour, and it was quite challenging to track down the right shade - at that time, lilac was not in vogue, although this year there's a lot more of it around.
Some good places to try are Ted Baker, where there are some stunning occasion coats; Gina Bacconi (try John Lewis), Jacques Vert and, for pretty summer dresses, Phase Eight and Hobbs. If you have a big budget and want to avoid anyone wearing the same outfit, go bespoke or vintage.
The Macea baby pink coat with bell sleeves is from Ted Baker, £259.
Gina Bacconi crepe dress and chiffon cape in silver mist, £270.
Jacques Vert rose print shift dress, £159. There is a crepe edge-to-edge jacket which would go beautifully with this at £149, ideal if you want to hide arms.
If your son or daughter is having a more informal wedding and there's no need for tights, fascinators or shrugs, you could consider a lovely trouser suit or jumpsuit like the pale pink one below from Massimo Dutti.
Make sure you find out what your counterpart is wearing, even if it's by email. You'll be in the same pictures so you don't want to be wearing clashing, or the same, colours.
Those dinky little cross-the-body bags or envelope clutch bags are all very well but for Mother of the Bride/Groom you will need something bigger. You'll need to carry Rescue Remedy, tissues, a small bottle of micellar to clean up makeup runs and wet wipes, plus your own lipstick, phone, mini umbrella and possibly a sandwich if any of the men in your entourage get irritable if their blood sugar levels plummet. There's a lot of hanging around at weddings and you don't usually get fed for hours.
On the shoe front, you'd be wise to avoid high heels, or, if you must, carry a pair of foldable flats in your bag for later. Break your shoes in by wearing them in the house and garden for a few weeks beforehand.
Sharing this post with Fashion Should Be Fun and A Pocketful of Polka Dots.
This was very interesting to read, Gail. You look beautiful in your lavender and I just adore the fascinator. I wish we wore these beyond Derby Day here in the states. I was mother of the groom a couple of years ago for my step-sons wedding and enjoyed shopping for my dress. I went with a soft grey with a sprinkling of sequins. Thanks for linking up with Fabulous Friday!
I have been a wedding vender (Photographer) in the area for twenty five years and I have never been treated so well by a wedding venue like I was at wedding venues Chicago. I am usually taken care of as a "last on the list" at venues, which I understand where the bride, groom and guest come first but the entire staff from the minute I walked in the door treated me so well.

Like always aswome work Kaos thanks stoled.
yup thanks very much guys, I got rid of fitgirl's one since yours is way smaller!
Haha! I know the feeling! More excellent work, thanks dudes! Now just need those new HDDs so I can actually start storing more stuff!
ya im running out of space myself...about time to buy more drives.
Nice! For what you're using it for 7200rpm is minimum spec I reckon!
I was weighing it all up for a while shopping around & would definitely have preferred a couple of 7200rpm drives but seeing as they're mainly for storage of media & archived games it works out waaaay less $/GB with the 5400s.
my ex worked for seagate, they are pretty unreliable drivs tbh. Only had one of the drives from seagate last any decent amount of time.

When you bite into an organic apple, you expect that the apple is meeting a standard that not only is it grown without harmful chemicals, but that it also is grown in a way that protects (not harms) wildlife and critical habitat.
Click here to download our Issue Brief to learn more.
For most, the USDA organic label conjures up images of pastoral beauty, co-existence of wildlife and livestock, and fields of diverse crops. For some organic farmers, this too is the expectation they set for themselves when they certify their land and crops. However, the actual rules are woefully lacking efforts to protect our wildlands.
Certifiers shared with us about the conversions of native sagebrush in OR and WA, prairies in CO, a wetland in NM, a forest in CA, native desert and sub-tropical scrub forests in Mexico, and grasslands and wetlands in China. These areas, that were once delivering critical ecosystem services and providing essential habitat for wildlife, are no longer performing the same functions and would take hundreds of years to reverse the damage.
NOP needs to catch up with the rest of the organic and environmental ecolabels of the world. Twenty-four of them – 13 organic and 11 ecolabels – already do not allow the conversion of Native Ecosystems into agricultural production. These programs are models that can be learned from and emulated.
We are advocating for a rule change that does not aim to limit the growth of organic agriculture, but rather redirects the growth to transitioning the 99% of agriculture that is managed conventionally. It is not fair to organic producers, who have waited three years to transition land that had been managed with prohibited materials, to have to compete with those farmers who convert Native Ecosystems overnight. Our work to update the organic rules puts all organic producers on the same playing field and ensures that the products bearing the organic label are upholding the intention behind the rules.
Our work is building upon the theme that the organic label means more than just pesticide-free; it means food and farms that carry this label are actively working to create healthier ecosystems; it means organic food and farming embody more—supporting the beauty and functionality that biodiversity provides on the farm and to our plate.

I didn’t grow up watching Star Wars. Unfortunately, witnessing Han being frozen in carbonite left me in a state of terror. So, I abandoned Star Wars for a few years until The Force Awakens.
I was watching Disney Channel in my university dorm. I can’t remember the program that was on. What I do remember was that I wasn’t really paying attention… until a commercial spot for The Force Awakens came on.
And suddenly I had to know what Darth Vader had started. What needed to be finished? I abandoned my fears. All that mattered what this man in a mask. Immediately I made my way to my university library and rented both the original and prequel trilogies.
I watched every movie, one after the other. I remember almost falling asleep, exhaustion creeping in at random points, and fighting to stay awake. I needed to experience Star Wars and experience it I did. My binge-watching session ended with a two-day headache and a passion for Star Wars.
Fast forward to opening weekend of The Force Awakens. I remember sitting in the theater, eagerly anticipating the film. Sure, I’d watched the other six movies, but they were on a laptop screen and this was in a theater! I’ll admit my emotions welled as the title card flashed across the screen, transitioning to the crawl, and the fanfare filled the room.
This was Star Wars! My love has only grown since then. My love for the prequels and Anakin Skywalker helped me find the Clone Wars animated series, which led me to Rebels. Podcasts like Fangirls Going Rogue introduced me to Claudia Gray’s Lost Stars and Unmistakably Star Wars introduced me to Delilah Dawson's Phasma.
My world was opening to new Star Wars content and my love of the saga was growing with it. With new movies, comics, and television series my love only grows more.

I'm just curious and this might be helpful for the factory as well as the potential buyer.
For all of you that currently have Redwoods or Blackwoods...what little annoyances would you like to see changed in your trailers. We're all grownups and I think we all understand that these units can't weigh as much as our brick and stick homes but there's also those little things that would add convenience.
It would be nice to have a couple of LED lights under the stepsinside the unitto help avoid a night time accident. We have the 36RL and it gets pretty dark in that sucker at night.
One thing I'd like to see on our 36FL has already been addressed and that is side windows in the slide out. When we're traveling through Indiana I may see if the factory can retrofit some in for me.
Another window issue I'd like to see changed concern the front windows on either side of the sofa. They are fixed pane windows and it would be nice if they opened to aide in air circulation.
Some windows above the kitchen door and table, up near the ceiling, to let a little more natural light in would be nice too.
That's a good idea but I'm not sure they can add a window or 2 without adding framing in the wall as well. But it might be worth the question.
Eventually, how about a "build your own" site like the car companies have. For instance, if you chose the "Onan Marquis Gold LP Generator" option, it would pop-up "Requires Generator Prep" option and "Requires 40lb Propane Tanks" option.
You can imagine some of the problemsthey have to resolve after delivery... like those who order the "3 Burner Cooktop w/3 Drawers" in lieu of the oven, and then don't orderthe "Convection Microwave" option. Or ordering the 2nd Power Awning and the Slide Awnings at the same time. Or how about forgetting to order the G614s option... Yikes.
The point is, there are many fussy people like us that research and build our own custom units on paper anyway, and then involve the dealer only as the "gateway" to the factory. More information, descriptions, photos of the options, and pricingwould free up the Sales Managers to make more contacts and resolve real problems.
I think that's a good point. I didn't know a second awning was an option if it weren't for this forum. And additional options would add $$$ to the dealers. If the dealers are making more $$$than they'll also get more dealers.
I would like to be able to access the front cargo compartment while the RV is hitched to my truck. Some RV's have a split access door on the front compartment so you can access the compartment.
Here are a few modifications I will be making. While I don't mind having a project or two it would have been nice if they were already included or at least options on our 36RE.
2. Temporary labels on switches until we learn what switch goes to where.
7. Someplace to set a glass of wine when seated on the living room couch or the recliners. We may take one of the recliners out and add a small table in it's place.Might replace or modify the ottoman to act as a coffee table.
Bottom line here is we love our coach and if we didn't do a darn thing to it we would still be happy campers. It's kind of fun making some additions and changes just to make it our own and to fit our life style.
The switch labels would be great - I just made my own. I added the cup holder to the wall beside the couch. We, too are very happy with our 36RE.
