T444E/AT545 Maintenance List and Tips.
Engine, Drive line, and Suspension maintenance list and tips from our school bus conversion. T444E engine with Allison AT-545 Transmission.
Bus Maintenance can be a bit frightening to some, but it really doesn’t need to be. Here are a few suggestions, tips, and words of wisdom to help get or keep your dream alive and rolling.
Even the most novice of mechanics can learn to service their rig in a very basic way. Filters, Fluids, and the other pieces that keep your engine, transmission and suspension in good working order are really some of the easiest parts to replace.
This post is based on the maintenance we have done on our 2000 International 3800 with a T444E engine and Allison AT-545 Transmission.
Air Filter – Air flow is important to the engine as it is a needed element for combustion as well as being used to cool various fluids as air moves across radiators. The Turbo on the T444E engine also needs air intake to operate. Originally we ordered our air filter through Rock Auto, but the wrong one. No Bueno. We decided after that to order OEM from the dealer. This thing is pretty big. It was $85, but well worth it. The old filter was filthy and covered in dirt, dust, and wasp carcasses. Replacing the filter is as simple as loosening a bolt on the filter box, taking the ring off, removing the old filter element and inserting the new one. Put the ring back on, tighten it all down and you are done.
Oil Filter – Oil is the blood of the engine; it is one of the most important fluids and should be maintained regularly. An oil change is a good idea (and super easy to do) as soon as you get your bus, even if the previous owner says it was just serviced, change it, write down your mileage and keep a watch on your oil level and condition. While the oil itself can be expensive, especially when you have 5 gallons of it to fill, the filters are inexpensive and easy to replace. We are using a Motorcraft FL- 1995 (F4TZ-6731-A) on our bus.
Thermostat was faulty. When we removed the old thermostat there was almost nothing left of it. We sourced the thermostat online as the ones we were getting from Auto Zone and the like were all wrong. After our issues with getting the right parts from the standard auto parts stores we recommend NOT using them, call the dealer or a repair shop and source parts. They will know better what fits and what you need. We were able to find a slightly used one for $35 + 13 for Shipping.
You can see the difference in the picture as to what is supposed to look like next to what we pulled out. The part number I have for this is #NAV1845804C2 or Item # 481828.
The filter we have is Part # FD-4595.
The function of a fuel filter is to strain out dirt and contaminants from engines. If the straining does not occur, the dirt, grim and contaminants can act as a stopper and significantly reduce the amount of flowing fuel into the engine. Reducing the amount of flowing fuel means the engine’s performance is going to decrease until the clog is cleared out of the filter. With diesel engines the fuel is strained and any water that may be in the water is seeped down and released without going into the engine itself.
to release the fuel and water in the bowl and surrounding the filter. Grab something to catch the fluid and DO NOT put it back in the bowl after replacing the filter.
Transmission Filter – The transmission filter we ordered from the dealer. Part # – . It is a good idea with all the other filters being replaced to just go ahead and do this one as well. It also allows you to see the condition of the fluid in the filter and what comes out when you pull the old filter off. If you notice the fluid is darker than normal or see any indication of metal in the fluid I would recommend draining the system and replacing the fluid completely, you may also opt to have the transmission serviced or checked out by a reputable mechanic if you feel the condition warrants further investigation.
Front Shocks – When we bought our bus the previous owner had driven from Mississippi to Florida with a shock that had separated at the bottom mount. I ordered a set of Monroe shocks from Rock Auto. Fairly inexpensive and a simple install. The worst of it is getting the old shock off. If you can, use an pneumatic impact driver to loosen the nuts on top and bottom. We also used a larger pipe wrench to hold the body of the shock in place as we were removing the nuts. The new shocks came with new bushings and nuts. With the shock being broken the driver side tire had worn down pretty badly and needed to be replaced. Tire wear is a big indication that something may be wrong with your shocks as well as other suspension parts.
Front suspension seals and grease fittings – While greasing the suspension I noticed a few seals that needed to be replaced. We ordered OEM seals and installed them ourselves. The lower drag link seal on the door side had been obliterated and needed to be replaced. I also replaced an upper king pin bushing on the driver side.
Greasing the suspension and steering parts is a good idea to ensure they can operate freely and as intended. A grease gun and grease can be purchased rather cheaply at Harbor Freight (that’s where we got ours). One tip is to make sure that the fitting you are putting grease into isn’t actually a fitting to bleed the brakes… I say that from experience. Its a bad idea.
Rear End / Differential Fluid – This is a simple thing to check and fill as well. On the rear transmission housing or differential, between the rear wheels on our bus, there is a ¾ inch nut. Loosen the nut slowly, as the nut gets to the end you may get some fluid that seeps out. That is a good thing. Replace the nut, tighten it down to torque specs and you are done.
However, if you do not get fluid coming out, even when you take the nut off completely, you will want add fluid. Differential fluid is just as important as the transmission fluid so make sure to check them both and fill as necessary. The AT545 is fickle as it is, so lets be good to it and hopefully she will be good to us.
Transmission Cooler – Another thing we did to mitigate the apparent nature of the AT545 we decided to add a transmission cooler to aid in keeping this baby at optimal operating temperature. We installed a Hayden Automotive 679 Rapid-Cool Plate and Fin Transmission Cooler we found on Amazon here is a link for it.
The Transmission oil cooler is installed so that the fluid comes from the transmission to this cooler and then to the factory cooler/warmer. This circuit ensures that the fluid is at the right temperature no matter the weather or load we are putting on it. It is highly recommended to install an extra cooler on the 545.
In the end the best thing you can do to keep your rig running right is to perform routine maintenance and the cheapest way to do it is to do it yourself. All of the maintenance we have done has been rather simple but extremely necessary. Remember to take notes on what filters and fluids you use and the intervals you are changing them.

Since the industrial revolution of the late 1700s, the business world has generated more pollution, mostly via product production, than any other force on the planet. Only recently have we come to understand just how deeply that pollution effects us and the planet. From climate change to untimely deaths (air pollution alone kills an estimated 7 million people each year, according to the World Health Organization) pollution is a huge problem. In 2014, researchers at Columbia, USC, and UC San Diego even found that pollution makes us less productive at work, particularly when that work involves any kind of physical labor.
As a modern business owner, you have a great opportunity. You can learn from the mistakes of past businesses, and take action to ensure that your business is run in such a way that it doesn't harm the environment or contribute to the planet's pollution problem.
Whether you own your own office space or rent space within an existing building, there are ways to improve your business's infrastructure in order to make it more energy efficient and reduce its carbon footprint. If you own your own building, take the time to research and invest in electrical appliances that use less energy. Though the upfront cost of such items may be higher than normal, it will pay dividends in the long run in the form of decreased energy bills for your business.
Another simple way to reduce your business's carbon footprint and improve its' energy efficiency? Proper lighting. LED lights might be more expensive than traditional bulbs, but they'll pay for themselves over time through lowered energy cost. And because most electricity is produced in ways which produce CO2, using less electricity means lowering your carbon footprint.
It's one of the basics of green living, but there's plenty of ways to make sure your office is just as eco-friendly as your home. Did you know that ink cartridges from printers are a particularly problematic kind of waste, with roughly 375 million ink and toner cartridges thrown away per year? Luckily, there are recyclers who specialize in recycling ink cartridges, and even printer companies that will collect empty cartridges and reuse them as a regular business practice. Things like phones (both mobile and desk phones), computers, refrigerators, microwaves and even printers themselves can be reused or recycled.
It may not always be possible, but whenever an opportunity arises for employees to work remotely, try to take it. Before flying or driving in a client or remote workers, ask yourself if an e-conference would suffice just as well. Not only will this reduce your business's environmental impact by saving the fuel your employees would have used to travel to work, but it may well raise your employees' productivity as well. Research conducted in 2014 suggests that workers may be up to 13% more productive when allowed to work from home.
Allowing employees to work remotely will also save money in the form of unused printer ink, electricity and other resources. These days, it is easy to save money in this way without even having to sacrifice the basics of face-to-face communication and meaningful collaboration.
If running a green business is important to you, then it should be important to your staff as well. You can ensure this is the case by making eco-friendliness central to your corporate culture. Integrate eco-friendly language into your business' mission statement and onto its website.
Develop staff guidelines that encourage your employees to go green. Remind employees to turn off computers, printers, and overhead lights when they're not in use and make sure that all staff has access to recycling bins, both near their desks and at a centralized location. Encourage employees to bring their lunch to work in reusable containers, and offer incentives for workers to use public transportation, carpool together, or ride their bike instead of driving.

On October 28, 2009, President Obama signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (FY 2010 NDAA). The new law amends the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provisions applicable to military personnel and their families by expanding the availability of both qualifying exigency leave and military caregiver leave.
Previously, qualifying exigency leave was not available to family of active members of the Armed Forces, but only to family members of those in the National Guard or Reserves who are deployed in support of a contingency operation. The FY 2010 NDAA extends the availability of qualifying exigency leave to family members of both career service members and those in the National Guard or Reserves who are deployed to a foreign country.
In addition to qualifying exigency leave, the FMLA provides up to 26 weeks of FMLA leave during a 12-month period for spouses, children, parents or next of kin to care for current members of the Armed Forces, including members of the National Guard or Reserves, who are undergoing medical treatment, recuperation or therapy, or are otherwise on the temporary disability retired list for a serious injury or illness incurred in line of duty.
The FY 2010 NDAA extends this entitlement to family members of veterans of the Armed Forces, including the National Guard or Reserves, suffering from a service-related injury or illness if the veteran was an active member of the Armed Forces within five years of requiring care. Presumably, this extension is intended to assist veterans who sustain injuries or illnesses during active duty that are not immediately apparent, such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Additionally, the FY 2010 NDAA expands military caregiver leave to cover the care of members of the Armed Forces who have an existing or preexisting serious injury or illness incurred in the line of duty that is aggravated by active duty. This expansion will likely allow for family members to take multiple 26-week periods of leave related to the same injury or illness of a covered service member if the injury or illness is first sustained in the line of duty and then aggravated during a return to active duty.
While the FY 2010 NDAA does not contain an effective date, employers should consider the law to be effective immediately. Employers should be alert to upcoming changes in the regulations and should update all FMLA policies to reflect the changes associated with the FY 2010 NDAA.
If you have any questions about this or any other labor & employment matters, please contact your Husch Blackwell Sanders attorney.

Manchester United v Valencia: Champions League – live!
What does Paul Scholes make of Jose Mourinho at the moment? “I’m surprised that he survived Saturday. I think his mouth is out of control and I think he’s embarrassing the club,” the former Manchester United midfielder says on BT Sport. Ouch. That’s as brutal as one of his tackles.
Manchester United make four changes after Saturday’s defeat to West Ham. Antonio Valencia replaces Ashley Young and Eric Bailly is in for Victor Lindelof at the back. Marcus Rashford starts after his goal at the London Stadium and Alexis Sanchez has walked straight back into the side after being left out entirely against West Ham. Out go Scott McTominay and Anthony Martial.
Valencia shake things up after beating Real Sociedad on the weekend. Ruben Vezo, Mouctar Diakhaby, Toni Lato, Carlos Soler, Denis Cheryshev and Kevin Gameiro make way for Cristiano Piccini, Gabriel Paulista, Jose Gaya, Francis Coquelin, Goncalo Guedes and Rodrigo Moreno.

I'm looking for measurement of placing the seat, sticks and pedals and the distances between them.
Whatever dimensions you end up using, remember that if you can't smell what the co-pilot had for breakfast, you have too much space in the cockpit.
The best solution is ... go to Beauvechain ... with a meter ... en alles ter plekke opmeten.
Send a email to the Base Commander for an admission. Should be no problem.
Contact Paul Kellens for the coordinates.
I don't know if this helps any, since the cockpit has been heavily modified, but this is what I flew a few years ago. All that extra gear is for Sony commercial camera systems and gunsighting.
Here's a nice image of the SF260 cockpit.

BetDSI has a promotion going on that awards all new players a 100% bonus instead of their standard 50% bonus. I'm not sure how long this promotion will last, so you might want to take advantage of it while the getting is good.
Ranking among the most popular sports betting sites, Diamond Sportsbook International (DSI) has a reputation for providing a betting experience that is user-friendly, secure and high quality, and a customer support team and banking suite that are efficient in every way. DSI treats each player with appreciation by offering secure and reliable deposit and payout options. This brand has put in a significant amount of effort to impress its customer base and deliver betting services that are a cut above. They offer a robust line up of sporting events, including all your favorites, and then some. You'll find attractive bonus offers, fast payouts, sometimes completing the same day you request them, and a solid range of wagering options. The high-quality betting experience found at DSI demonstrates that they are strongly connected and focused on customer satisfaction.
There are multiple sign-up bonuses to choose from at any given time at DSI Sportsbook. There is a sportsbook promotions page which lists the standard sign-up bonuses, and a 'latest promotions' page which shows any special sign up promotions that are available. Here we are going to list the standard promotions, and give you some examples of the special sign-up promotional bonus offers, which change all the time.
The DSI Sportsbook 100% Sign Up Bonus: Players who deposit $100 or more will receive a 50% free play bonus up to $500 with a 5x rollover requirement, or a 10% free play bonus up to $500 with a 3x rollover requirement. These two sign-up bonus offers are the two standard DSI Sign Up Bonus offers.
An example of a special promotion sign up bonus would be as follows: Deposit $100 and get a 100% free play bonus up to $100 with a 10x rollover, or deposit $600 and get a 50% free play bonus up to $300 with a 10x rollover. Both of these promotions end on 10/31/2010 and were used as examples of the special promotion sign-up bonuses that DSI loves to give out.
Returning players will be eligible for a 10% free play bonus up to $500 with a 5x rollover any time you re-load your account with a deposit of $100 or more. Not a bad way to boost that bankroll every single time you play.
Anytime you refer a friend who deposits $50 or more, DSI will give you a 30% free play bonus up to $1,000 on their first deposit.
DSI has one of the most substantial rewards programs in the sports betting industry, with the most perks and benefits of any program we've seen.

After the longest shutdown in government history, Congress has until February 15, to figure out how to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Without a lasting agreement to keep the government funded, departments funded by the remaining seven spending bills will shut down again, while other critical programs continue to linger under threat from the President’s demand for more than $5 billion for a border wall that simply cannot pass Congress.
It is critically important that Congress work together to avert another government shutdown while protecting the rights and dignity of migrants, border residents, and vulnerable communities across the nation.
Click here to send an email to your members of Congress.
We need people of faith to urge their members of Congress to pursue a long-term solution without further militarizing our border or shutting down the government.Additional funding for Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs & Border Protection (CBP) will worsen our punitive immigration system and put more people in harm’s way. Instead, Congress should invest in alternatives to detention, such as community-based case management, and more humane policies and practices along the border. Further, ICE and CBP should be prohibited from overspending appropriations or repurposing other agencies’ funding for detention, border wall construction, or expanded immigration enforcement.
There is a group of legislators tasked with coming up with a compromise piece of legislation for Department of Homeland Security spending. If you are represented by the people below, your voice is especially important. However, it is important for you to reach out to your members of Congress no matter where you live, so that they can weigh in with their colleagues on what they are hearing from their own constituents (you).
What should you say to your legislators?
Your legislators should hear from you that you want them to significantly reduce money for deportation, detention, and border militarization and walls.
Click here to email your members of Congress.
As a person of faith, I urge Congress to negotiate and pass a spending package that protects the rights and dignity of migrants, border communities, and vulnerable communities across the nation affected unfairly by the longest shutdown in our nation’s history.
I believe that Congress should be focused on significantly reducing funding for deportation, detention, and border militarization and walls. Our tax dollars should be spent alleviating poverty and investing in our future – not rounding up our neighbors or locking out people seeking asylum.
Any new DHS funds must not further militarize the border, but rather invest in alternatives to detention and other community-based solutions. Further, ICE and CBP should be prohibited from overspending appropriations or repurposing other agencies’ funding for detention, border wall construction, or expanded immigration enforcement.
I urge you to work with your colleagues across the aisle to restore good governance and reject the President’s harmful immigration enforcement demands under threat of another shutdown.
The federal workforce is not a bargaining chip. This nation’s immigrant community is not a bargaining chip. I urge you to reject the use of people’s livelihoods in a game of political brinksmanship.

Australian sexual consent campaign, 50 Shades of No, has been shortlisted for the Glass Lion: The Lion for Change.
It’s the only Australian campaign on the list and is one of 27 global campaigns nominated for this prestigious award.
The Glass Lion is the Lion for Change; an award that recognises work that challenges gender bias and shatters stereotypical images of men and women in marketing messages.
50 Shades of No is the product of a group of Melbourne women, and agency, The Otto Empire.
To find out more about the initiative, B&T sat down with the executive producer of 50 Shades of No and Otto Empire founder Jo de Fina.
What was your inspiration for 50 Shades?
The idea came about as a response to the Aziz Ansari scandal, and after considering how we would respond to the International Women’s Day call out to #pressforprogress.
In January an article was published with the account of a girl named Grace who had had the ‘worst night of her life’ during a date with US comedian Aziz Ansari. It opened up a huge debate about consent and what it looks like.
We realised that consent has a lot of grey areas and wanted to start a conversation about the spaces in between the black and white of consent; it’s not as straightforward as no means no.
How was the idea put into action?
We put a Facebook post out asking women to share occasions when they had tried to say stop or slow down a sexual encounter without using the words.
We received hundreds of statements from women from around the world.
We then took 50 of those statements and created T-shirts which were made available for sale on an e-commerce site. And we asked 50 influencers to wear and post a pic on International Women’s Day.
Our aim was to start a conversation about consent, and in particular, enthusiastic consent.
Not only have we started a conversation about consent, but we have had contact with other countries and organisations wanting to replicate the idea in their own region.
We’re also in conversations with universities and various festivals and support groups about consent education and how to change the conversation.
Ultimately we would love to see legislation changed as to what constitutes consent.
The Saxon Mullins case in NSW highlights the need for this clear understanding of what consent is. It’s not just hearing someone say ‘No’. There are many ways we communicate, and this campaign is about those subtleties of that communication.
What has been the benefit of using such a diverse group of women to demonstrate the issue?
We’ve reached a very broad audience.
This issue about enthusiastic consent affects everyone; men and women. Women want to be heard and men have been very open to being educated and enlightened as to how we communicate. It’s been educational for everyone.
How have you used social media to generate attention?
The entire campaign was driven by social media.
We’ve used Instagram and Facebook to drive the entire campaign. Recruiting influencers, and having everyone tag and share.
What have been the ripple effects?
Probably the biggest one is the cathartic and healing effect it seems to have had on people who have experienced sexual assault. Buying and wearing a t-shirt has helped them to heal their own personal experiences, and to communicate both online, and offline, with those around them.
And the realisation that it is more than one day, International Women’s Day. The campaign has a life of its own now and education and working with universities and schools is now our focus for stage 2.
As well as the global reach.
What do you make of the Cannes nom?
To be the only Australian work shortlisted for a Glass Lion is amazing. Especially when we look at the company we’re in.
We’re a small group of individuals from Melbourne who set out to create a campaign that would start a conversation. We’re in the company of Nike, Coca-Cola, Dove, global agency groups. It’s pretty humbling.
How can an event like Cannes help generate attention to this issue?
The platform and audience in Cannes is huge, and I intend to use the 20 minutes I have in front of the Jury and delegates, to further callout for support, conversation, and awareness.
This is about a conversation and we’re already in discussions with other countries about running their own campaigns. Cannes is a great platform to drive further conversation.
We’re in the business of communication and I have a week to communicate with a huge melting pot of people from advertising throughout the world.
In an industry driven by consumption, to be able to use creativity to affect change is so rewarding.
How intertwined is this issue and the advertising industry in Australia and worldwide?
I wouldn’t say the consent conversation is exclusive to any particular industry.
It’s about education and how we raise and condition boys and girls. How we represent relationships in the media and conditioning of both sexes from birth.
That’s something well outside of any workplace or industry.
What is still the biggest hurdle for 50 Shades, and the industry more generally?
I think our industry is making great strides in recognising talent of all genders and minorities.
I know there are the naysayers about quotas and this whole female push, but it will only be temporary until there is a balance and this ingrained unconscious bias starts dissolving away.
Everyone needs to be recognised for their talents, regardless of gender.
For so long, women’s gender was clouding any recognition they may have received. Now that is slowly falling away, which is progress.
We started 50 Shades of No in response to the International Women’s Day #pressforprogress, and I think we’re slowly getting somewhere.

lowercased:
australian sexual consent campaign, 50 shades of no, has been shortlisted for the glass lion: the lion for change.
it’s the only australian campaign on the list and is one of 27 global campaigns nominated for this prestigious award.
the glass lion is the lion for change; an award that recognises work that challenges gender bias and shatters stereotypical images of men and women in marketing messages.
50 shades of no is the product of a group of melbourne women, and agency, the otto empire.
to find out more about the initiative, b&t sat down with the executive producer of 50 shades of no and otto empire founder jo de fina.
what was your inspiration for 50 shades?
the idea came about as a response to the aziz ansari scandal, and after considering how we would respond to the international women’s day call out to #pressforprogress.
in january an article was published with the account of a girl named grace who had had the ‘worst night of her life’ during a date with us comedian aziz ansari. it opened up a huge debate about consent and what it looks like.
we realised that consent has a lot of grey areas and wanted to start a conversation about the spaces in between the black and white of consent; it’s not as straightforward as no means no.
how was the idea put into action?
we put a facebook post out asking women to share occasions when they had tried to say stop or slow down a sexual encounter without using the words.
we received hundreds of statements from women from around the world.
we then took 50 of those statements and created t-shirts which were made available for sale on an e-commerce site. and we asked 50 influencers to wear and post a pic on international women’s day.
our aim was to start a conversation about consent, and in particular, enthusiastic consent.
not only have we started a conversation about consent, but we have had contact with other countries and organisations wanting to replicate the idea in their own region.
we’re also in conversations with universities and various festivals and support groups about consent education and how to change the conversation.

I called Airstream this morning and gave them my vin number. My Basecamp is part of the recall. Did not sound like they have an immediate fix, as I was told they would call me when they have the solution ironed out to let me know how and where to get it fixed .... that is paraphrasing.
I'm recalled too. Airstream told me the "fix" was not known at this time entirely.
Probably no need to check your VIN on the NHTSA site. If you have a Basecamp, yours is on the list.
All Basecamps manufactured up through the date of the voluntary recall are potentially affected. Airstream has received reports of scuffing on tires. They have tried to replicate the conditions leading to the suspension settling to the point where tires might travel enough to contact the fender flare with both an unloaded and loaded to gross capacity Basecamp but have not been successful yet. It is likely that real world driving conditions such as hittng potholes at speed are the issue.
I am assuming the problem is behind the tire instead of above it, as there seems to be ample room above the tire on my camper. Seems to me that modifying the wheel well/fender would be a better approach to allow more room behind it.
In my case, the smallest clearance between the fender flare and the tire is toward the front. Given the apparent eccentric swing on the Dexter axle, I would think that the tire would travel away from the front flare as it responds to road irregularities, but there might be another dynamic at play here.
Don't own one but could someone crawl underneath and look for the Dexter label. It should have enough info to easily determine the axle rated capacity. Then what is tongue weight, UBW and gross weight.
And dexter just supplied a part number to spec I bet.
My rig was built with lighter axles than parts book stated. Long story. Got me new axles.
Not a lot of room under there folks :-) Photo of my Dexter axle label attached.
A month or so back, I took my SUV and camper to a truck stop to weigh it all. The axle of my camper that day weighed 2400 pounds. I didn't have anything loaded in the camper that day. The loaded capacity of the camper is 780 pounds, per the sticker on the inside of my door.
I see what you're saying about the space in front of the tire. Not much room.
Thanks for the photo, Gail. I see on one of your posts that you mentioned you are a nature photographer… very cool!!! Do you have a website where you post your photos? Oh, and thanks for the contact information for the recall… I will try calling tomorrow.
Great photos… especially of Floyd and Fiona. Did you get the additional tents so they each have their own den? I hope they get these issues resolved with the BC… I haven't even used mine yet.
Makes me wonder a bit if the issue is axle placement. I have not crawled under to look at the manner in which the axle assembly is attached to the frame, but I kinda wonder if there is fore/aft adjustment in the attachment area. Perhaps moving the axle aft a bit might be the ticket.
Then again, if there is only one option for where the axle connects to the frame, then it's on to other theories.

I kept my card pretty simple - blended some Distress ink over a heart-stencil and on the backgroun piece, added the embossing paste on top of the stencil and that's pretty much it. Stamping, coloring, fuzzy cutting, assembling - done!
Ich habe meine Karte recht schlicht gehalten - habe nur etwas Distress Ink mit einem Stencil aufgetragen und auch auf dem Hintergrund und habe dann noch die Embossing Paste über den Stencil aufgetragen - das war's auch schon fast. Stempeln, colorieren, ausschneiden, zusammenkleben - fertig!
Wow!!!!! LOOOOVE this!!! Those pinks and oranges are INCREDIBLE!! Love the googly eyes too! Ha ha!! This is soooooo happy and lovely!!

It used to be that businesses lost money because nobody bought the product or service being offered. Cars came along and rendered the buggy whip obsolete. Gas logs threaten the existence of chimney sweeps. Falling demand reduces supply over time. It is the natural order of things.
What is hard to comprehend, though, is how companies, such as those in the wireless telecom industry, canât seem to make money. Have you noticed all of the people around you using wireless phones, checking e-mail on their PDA, or reading a message on their digital pager? All of these communication devices are now standard-issue equipment in the new urban tool-belt. Forget hammers and tape measures.
If you spend any time at all in airports, malls, traffic jams, or other places where large numbers of people gather, you canât help but realize that everyone seems to be talking to someone! With all of this demand, why no profit for the industry? Remember the old Soviet Union? During the cold war, the U.S. engaged the enemy in an arms race that could easily have bankrupted one or both countries. Each country tried to be king of the hill by building a larger and larger network of missiles and other weapons. They kept building even though both already possessed a more-than-adequate supply to wipe out the other and large chunks of the rest of the world as well. The objective had nothing to do with the need for more weapons, but rather it was merely to drive the competition out of business. The wireless industry is locked in a similar and equally deadly game. They are spending too much, unnecessarily. Their networks are large enough to serve their customers; but that is not the goal. The goal is to crush the enemy.
Other industries have been doing the same thing in recent years. At some point, corporate America lost its way. Instead of focusing on making a profit and growing market share over time, corporations became determined to rule the world, overnight. This raised the stakes for investors.
WorldCom faces a downgrade in its debt ratings that will reduce its credit worthiness to âjunkâ status. Other wireless players face potential bankruptcy. The U.S. stock market pulled back sharply in April in response to problems in the telecom group. Concerns abound as to which companies will survive their own debt loads.
As investors, we should be looking for opportunities in the battered industries that have been âre-pricedâ due to these fears. Telecom and pharmaceutical stocks, by example, are looking washed out. It is hard to imagine that the outlook could get any worse or the sentiment any more negative. These and a handful of other industries are reaching a point where external shocks will have little effect.
What makes these industries attractive, and what sets them apart from other similarly beat-up groups, is the demand. To be sure, there is no lack of fallen angels to choose from, but many are not worth buying, even at recent low prices. Why? They represent a value trap. On the surface they may appear to be a good value because their price has dropped, but so has the demand for what they sell.
