Spark Plug reading?
2 Attachment(s)
I was wondering if you guys could take a look at these plugs and tell me what you see needs adjusting. I'm confusing myself. There are a couple that are black and the rest are brown like you see in the pic. #3 was dry at the tip, but a little wet on the threads (fuel). All other plugs were pretty much dry. Should I go a step hotter on the plugs. These are a new set of plugs That I put in after I adjusted A/F on the carb for highest vaccum. The only thing I've done different after that was change the module out in my HEI. By the way this is a brand new 496 that I'm still working the bugs out of. I started to get a slight surge when I stop at the light, which is what made me check the plugs. I checked for vac leaks also before I pulled the plugs to see if that was causing the slight surge. The carb is a Holley 4150 850cfm double pumper. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks,
If you want to get a better idea of the air/fuel ratio, you have to do a "plug chop" to show you the color. This would be done at the RPM/load where you were interested in checking, i.e. if you want to know what the a/f ratio looked like at WOT, you'd run it at WOT to do the chop. Same thing for midrange cruise, etc. Idle mixture can be checked in various ways, but before doing any of that, the timing should be dialed in. Depending on the cam you might need quite a bit more initial timing than would seem 'normal'.
There are instances where the carb is jetted differently side to side, called "staggered jetting". So it will help to know what the cam and intake specs are and under what conditions were the plugs above being used.
What brand of plugs r these?
Swap the black sooty plug for the other one n see what happens
Clean them first
wet plugs ?
ill agree with the other posts - also - try looking down the carn throats when warmed up & use a flashlight. is any fuel dripping down the accl boosters? fuel level slightly high? ant fuel puddling in carb? Ive had bad plugs also -yet rare - no matter what brands.
Couple of notes for you,
Generally if the threads are wet, it is oil working its way up the threads. If the engine is new, i wouldnt be too worried its still breaking in and you will see some oil now and then till everything is seated.
You adjusted the Idle air screws, not the air fuel ratio, as soon as you pick up the throttle those adjustments are moot.
If you have a "surge" just as you come to a stop, either the idle is too low, the convertor is too high of a stall, possibly a high/low float, rear idle circuit is too high (dropping fuel with the blades closed) or even a broken advance weight spring. Hard to say.
If you want to start eliminating the carb, srcew the rear bleeds all the way in and cut the flow. If that helps somone has probably bob vila'd the carb and turned the rear blade stop in or out under the carb feeling they were doing something trick.
As far as the plugs go, the best advice was to swap the black plug to a good hole.
If it persists start looking at things that would make a cyl run rich, weak spark (bad wire, contact on cap, star wheel on the shaft damaged) exhaust gas entering the chamber on intake stroke, tight valve, oil entering into the chamber like bad valve seal, bad ring, bad guide etc.
hope you figure it out and have fun.
I'd throw them away, put in a fresh set and run it a while then take a new look and report the results back here. This time keep them in order so you can see if any are on common sides of the intake, or are next to each other, at the front or rear of the engine, etc. This is so we can consider trends if there seem to be any of related or common problems between cylinders.
On second thought I wouldn't throw these plugs out, keep them for reference but don't run 'em again. And don't get them confused with the next set you take out.
Once you put the fresh set of plugs in, take a magic marker and put a reference line at 12 0'clock on each plug. That way you will know if any of the deposits that you might see are related to a particular valve.
The following was a question I received about the plugs, etc. I'm adding it here in hopes that it may be of some use to someone doing a similar search:
"If you want to get a better idea of the air/fuel ratio, you have to do a "plug chop" to show you the color. This would be done at the RPM/load where you were interested in checking, i.e. if you want to know what the a/f ratio looked like at WOT, you'd run it at WOT to do the chop. Same thing for mid-range cruise, etc. Idle mixture can be checked in various ways, but before doing any of that, the timing should be dialed in. Depending on the cam you might need quite a bit more initial timing than would seem 'normal'."
The WOT is harder to do as you need to put in a fresh set of plugs when ready to perform the test, run it for the test then kill it at the top end and coast down out of gear, then pull the plugs. They need to be inspected under a bright light and with magnification as unless there is something really, really off the insulator color changes are very subtle and difficult to see. Somewhere in some old hot rod book there is a picture of a guy doing this; holding a plug in one hand while using a hand held lighted magnifier in the other with an eye ball to the lens.
Your issues if there are any seem more general where the WOT test is after just what's happening at a specific place.
Also, keep in mind that often when a plug gets carboned up it never recovers. My wife's Sportster is like that, if she leaves the choke on too long it fouls the plugs and no amount of cleaning and reuse brings them back, you just toss 'em and restart with new, clean porcelain. This is why I want you to just put a fresh set of plugs in and put some miles on them, so we start with a clean slate to read from.
Sorry for the OT post. To make up for it I'll throw in a link:
HERE is a site to give you the basics of plug reading.
And http://www.empirenet.com/pkelley2/sparkplugreading.html
I have a link to an article on plug chops that I cannot locate just now, but a search will provide plenty of info on the how-to part of it.
That is a good point about plugs- often they will not recover from fouling, despite being cleaned. They may be good enough to get some idea if used for reading after being cleaned, but it's better to bite the bullet and use a new set.
Back when plugs were fiddy cents apiece there was no reason not to replace them all after a run. Nowadays, they're still cheap- at least the regular type plugs are, but there are some plugs (like platinum/iridium) that you just cannot toss that easily. Even replacing a few plugs w/new ones and reading just them will suffice once you know what cylinders you are concerned with, or which cylinders are running rich or lean due to intake distribution, etc.
After reading them they can be used for normal use once things are dialed in.

It's a 2000 Heritage Softail Classic. I put a big bore kit on it to boost it from 88 to 95 inches. The Harley sometimes troublesome chain cam drive is replaced with S&S gears and cams. The carb is a HSR 48mm Mikuni, Flatslide with a Screaming Eagle ignition module. The HD 5 speed is replaced with a Baker 6 speed. The pipes are Bub Straight Aways. I added a tach and put chrome lowers wind deflectors on the front. Installed Screaming Eagle foot boards, brake and shifter controls, and highway pegs. This is my first bagger which, like a station wagon, was something when I was younger I said I never own. But old age makes its own dictates so I bought this and sold my old David Mann style bobber/chopper hard tail a while ago, I did keep my Yamaha Virago/V-Max mix as I've got way too mucho bucks in that for what I can get for it. At least my health is still good enough to ride and build things. I'm thinking if I can get away for the better part of a month that I'll ride 4 Corners next summer on the Softail.
I put an Odyssey battery in the FLSTC last summer as ever since I put the 95 inch kit on it and did not adjust the compression for the extra inches it's been difficult to start as if it doesn't fire on the first couple turns, the battery dies and has to go on the charger, last one being an Interstate. I swear now the engine is running just as you touch the starter switch.
While I thought I'd sell it and get an injected model last summer, I discovered I've just got too many big bucks in it, just can't sell it for anything close to recovering some of the cost of the goodies, everybody wants it for Blue Book or less, so I'll keep it. My wife rides a 2003, 1200 Custom which is a nice bike I can really flick it around which while the FXSTC weighs in at 700 plus pounds before I'm on it, it is surprisingly maneuverable but nothing like the Sportster.
Absolutely beautiful bike, Bogie-love the pipes, and I'll bet it has some beans! I have a Harley too, and we're getting close top riding season around here! Can't wait- :pimp:
edit: oops, I didn't see that this Post was a few Months old-sorry! :pain:
I'm ready for riding season, it's been a long winter.

I finally got the motivation to start on my JP. Wow! I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I bought it about a year ago off of someone on E-bay that said, if I remember correctly, that they did not have the skill required to deal with it. I believe, again, if I remember correctly, it said in the auction it was made by "someone" who I now know to be permanently banned from TDH, for recasting... I think. It is resin, and full of thick and thin spots. The outside wasn't too awfully bad but there was one pretty bad problem on the bottom (Pics attached). The inside looks like someone stood back and threw handfulls of resin at it. But I decided to use it anyway. I would have felt really bad dumping it off on someone else. If the person who actually made this is on here still... I'm sorry... but why would you sell something like this?
Anyway Here are a few "so far" pics. I have more done but my cam took a poop so these pics are all I can share at the moment.

Hey Fetts,
I have a pair of Fett knee pieces that I've painted chrome. I then traced with a pencil where I wanted the chrome to show. I covered those areas with mustard and took a hair dryer to it to harden the mustard. I painted on 3 coats of yellow primer and 1 coat of the actual yellow paint. I plan to put 2 more coats of the yellow, then hit both knee pieces with a light misting of rust colored primer. After all those layers of paint, will I be able to get the mustard to come off without scraping it off? I was hoping to use a little rubbing alcohol on a cloth, but what does everyone else do? Thanks!
Jon Barrows, Jr.

Fresh from his three Grammy nominations, the down-to-earth Aussie-Belgian Wally De Backer caught up with Raf ahead of his Melbourne Myer Music Bowl show.
Listen to Wally's take on his fame, favourite bands and why it's so hard for him to perform his huge hit "Somebody That I Used To Know".
You can follow this conversation by subscribing to the comment feed for this post.
I enjoy listening to Wally talk, he is so pleasant and intelligent and down to earth during the interview.
Won't be long until the GRAMMY AWARDS on February 10th...
Nominated for - Record of the Year, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, Best Alternative Music Album.
WORLD MUSIC AWARDS are coming up too.....
Gotye was nominated for - Best Male, Best Entertainer.
I am suprised Gotye is not listed in more categories, like Best Song, Best Video, Best Live Act. He deserves it!
Wishing the Best of Luck to you Wally!

The Nets come to the Palace after losing their only inside presence (Kristic) to a season ending injury. The Pistons should pound the ball inside to Sheed, J-Max, or whosoever chooses to go in the paint because the Nets interior defense will be nonexistent. Look for Kidd, Jefferson and Vinsanity to cocme out very agressive against Detroit. The Nets are team that will not give up and the Pistons should expect a hard fought game.

Arsène Wenger insists Samir Nasri will give everything in an Arsenal shirt if he plays against Liverpool on Saturday.
The manager has confirmed that the midfielder is in contention for a starting spot at Emirates Stadium despite strong reports linking him with a move to Manchester City.
Nasri has trained with the rest of the squad this week and Wenger is confident his professionalism means he will give nothing less than 100 per cent if selected.
"If Samir plays against Liverpool, he can prove how committed he is to this club," he said. "I never questioned his love for this club. We are professionals as well.
"He was suspended on Tuesday night. If he were not suspended he would have played and he is in contention for a position in the team against Liverpool.
"What will happen after? I don't know. You do your job until the last day of your life at the Club - the rest is speculation. That doesn't interfere with your dedication and the way you do your job.
"Nasri is in the squad. If I decide to play him he will play. When you are professional you play until the last day.
"Everywhere I have worked in my life I have made sure that until the last second of where I was I did the job properly. He is paid this month by Arsenal Football Club so why should he not play?"Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

The Canisius softball team split a MAAC doubleheader at long-time rival Niagara on Monday afternoon, taking the first game 4-0 before falling in the nightcap by the score of 11-5. The split moves the Golden Griffins to 13-25 overall and 4-8 in MAAC play, while the Purple Eagles see their record go to 13-24 overall and 3-9 in conference action.
Canisius senior Jen Consaul picked up her team-leading 12th win in the circle for the Blue and Gold in game one after she went the distance and fanned six while giving up just three hits en route to her fifth shutout of the season. Canisius scored two unearned runs in the top of the first to take a 2-0 lead, and then added two more insurance runs in the fifth when freshman Lindsey Silfer scored on a Niagara error and then fellow freshman Sam Sharkey knocked in a run with a base hit. That was all the help Consaul would need in game one as she ended the game by allowing just one Niagara base runner to reach third in the final three frames of the contest.
Canisius collected five hits off Niagara starter Jennifer Sansano, who took the loss after she allowed four runs, one earned, on five hits while striking out 10 and walking six. Silfer had a double, her seventh of the season, in the fourth inning and senior Valorie Nappo was credited with an RBI in the win, her 13th of the year. Consaul's win improved her to 12-15 on the year for the Griffs, and the complete-game effort was her 24th of the season.
The Griffs jumped out to an early 1-0 lead in the top of the first in game two thanks to an RBI-single by Silfer, and after the Purple Eagles knotted the game at 1-1 in the second, Canisius scored twice in the third and two more times in the top-half of the fourth to take a 5-1 lead. Junior Robin Kennery and Silfer each had runs batted in for the Griffs in the third as the team took a 3-1 lead, and in the fourth, Canisius took a 4-1 advantage when sophomore Meghan Cuda hit her team-leading ninth homer of the season. Later that inning, Valorie Nappo came around to score from second after a wild pitch and a throwing error by Niagara's catcher. That would be the last time the Blue and Gold would score on the day however, as Niagara tallied two runs in the bottom of the fourth to make it a 5-3 game, and then the Purple Eagles erupted for eight runs in the sixth, highlighted by a grand slam off the bat of designated player Ali VanGiesen.
Canisius pounded out 12 hits in the loss, led by Silfer's three hits in the nightcap. She was one of five Canisius players to have multiple hits in the losing effort, as freshman Jessica Berzins had two hits along with junior Michelle DelPrince. Sophomore Alexis Roman had two hits for the Blue and Gold in game two, while Cuda and Valorie Nappo had two hits as well. Consaul took the loss for the Griffs in the second game after she allowed 11 runs, three earned, on 12 hits to go with three strikeouts and a walk. Niagara's Sydney Smyers moved her record to 2-1 after she went 2.2 innings and gave up just two hits to pick up the victory.
Canisius will open an eight-game homestand on Thursday, April 24, when the team plays host to Syracuse in non-league action. First pitch at the Demske Sports Complex is set for 3:30 p.m.
Game Notes: Canisius leads the all-time series with Niagara by an 88-22-1 count… Canisius has more wins over Niagara than any other opponent... Consaul has pitched 82-straight innings for Canisius, dating back to April 7… Cuda's homer in game two, her ninth of the season, is the most for a sophomore in school history and ranks her tied for third on the school's single-season home run chart… Silfer now has reached base safely in 15 of the team's last 16 games… The win in game one by Canisius officially locked up the 2013-14 Canal Cup for the Griffs… The Canal Cup is presented annually to the winner of the Battle of the Bridge, an all-sport competition between Canisius and Niagara… The Griffs have now won the Canal Cup four years in a row.

Two words were on everyone's lips today when it came to tablet talk: Honeycomb and LTE, the next-generation much faster network billed as "4G." Honeycomb is Google's first tablet-optimized version of its Android operating system, which will run on tablets like the Motorola Xoom, LG G-Slate, and Asus Eee Pad Transformer. Honeycomb isn't fully operational yet so it's hard to say how well these tablets will perform; early demos show a user experience that looks similar to the Palm WebOS "deck of cards" metaphor for switching between applications.
Posted by Sarah Rotman Epps on January 4, 2011
Today Forrester published its revised US consumer tablet forecast, updating its previous forecast from June 2010. When Apple's iPad first debuted, we saw the device as a game-changer but were too conservative with our forecast. Since then, we've fielded additional consumer surveys and an SMB and enterprise survey, conducted additional supply-side research, and seen more sales numbers from Apple. We've had briefings from many companies that will release new tablets at CES. All of these inputs have led us to revise our US consumer tablet forecast for 2010 upward to 10.3 million units, and we expect sales to more than double in 2011 to 24.1 million units. Of those sales, the lion's share will be iPads, and despite many would-be competitors that will be released at CES, we see Apple commanding the vast majority of the tablet market through 2012.

Awesome shirt for polyamorous gaming nerds :D
Glad the shirt is on AA blanks.
The only thing that would make this shirt better, was if it was named "Baby 'uigi Time!"
I have seen the true inspiration photo, but this kinda reminds me of that movie. the one about the Brothers.
Talk about third-party developments!
Nacho! Two weeks in a row, congrats, sir!
I'm just waiting for Luigi to look over and for Toad to say "Thank You Luigi! But Our Princess Is In Another Castle!"

100% with you on that! I would have loved to have it as well!
This is messed up lol. And I've BEEN in Luigi's situation. 2nd class Citizen huh? I'll show you Mr. Celebrity.
Peach is gonna have some splainin to do when her baby comes out tall and lanky.

Actually Mario saved Daisy, too (Super Mario Land, 1989). She and Luigi were only put together because Luigi had no partner for Mario Tennis doubles... /sad

Right, that's it. Peach is just a big tease. Her mushroom kingdom brings all the boys to the yard, it seems.

I think they are referring to the SPECIAL stages in Super Mario World changing the entire game if you beat those.
Maybe im just a naive gamer.

You. If I remember correctly, this resembles a back shot of the THE END screen from Super Mario World.

Wait, this is on an AA grass green blank, but Lucky at Last had been switched to Anvil before it was reckoned.
Edit: The same goes for Cheater from last week.
The only time Daisy has been rescued to my knowledge was in Super Mario Land (the first one in that side-series, for the Game Boy), and the rescuing was done by... Mario.
(The more you know)
Part of me finds it funny and part of me finds it SO sad. I love Mario and I LOVE Peach, it just seems so wrong,I just don't know if I could buy it and wear it.

Ha. Yup, that`s how it reads.
Cool design and AA blanks! I'm in for one.
Chicks dig a tall guy.
Although in this shirt Mario appears to be the same size, I never thought that was the case.
Alas, another shirt I can't order since the new shirts came in. Extra Small for sizing in Women's please!!
mserafin0615 wrote:Alas, another shirt I can't order since the new shirts came in. Extra Small for sizing in Women's please!!
They are on AA.
The only reason I bought this shirt is because I played Luigi in Super Smash Bros Melee and Luigi doesn't get enough love.
this is me -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asD7D1pDE8c
Oddly, the first thing that occurred to me when I saw the thumbnail version of this design was the Han-Leia-Luke triangle in Star Wars. Which was a lot more intriguing before Lucas decided half the galaxy was related to each other. Then it just got creepy.
Why is grass green suddenly on AA? There have been a few great shirts in this color on Anvil recently that I totally would have bought on AA! Argh.
Although the Super Mario Bros. movie doesn't really fit with the games (there probably would've been some controversy for live action curb stomping and setting turtles on fire), Luigi and Daisy definitely had feelings for each other.
Should have had Daisy on the other side of Luigi holding Mario's hand.
Otherwise, this shirt does hit too close to home. =(
When I first saw the shirt, I thought it was Mario with his arm around the Princess, but holding hands with Luigi, which would have worked as well, in a creepy way.
Another amazing print Nacho! congrats!
I wanted this shirt, but I didn't feel right ordering it myself. So I asked a girl who has a boyfriend to buy it for me and she did.
I noticed the votes are going down for top winners. I wonder if sales have been going down with them, because it's all nerdy/videogame shirts that people like the idea of being made and wouldn't actually buy. It's as if giving votes has become a way of saying, "I get the joke!" and we've lost the artistic Woot shirts that we had back in 2009 and before.
Congrats Naolito!!!loved this!! so happy it printed!:D
It's no secret that she likes DP

Resource Center
Both existing fundraiser customers and new fundraising leaders will find answers to their questions. The sections below are organized to help you find what you need in the most convenient manner to you. We also welcome the opportunity to answer your questions by phone at 1-800-311-9691 (Weekdays 7 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.) or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Answers to questions fundraiser group leaders ask the most often (grouped by theme).
How Rada Fundraisers Work
How do I get information on what Rada has to offer?
A: Obtain a free information kit by simply clicking the Request Catalog button tab on this website and fill in your name and mailing address or call our friendly customer service staff at 1-800-311-9691!
How do I get a sample to show to the members of my group or potential buyers?
A: Simply call our friendly customer service staff toll free at 1-800-311-9691 to request a sample pack. Please have a method of payment available.
What can I do to promote my fundraiser?
A: Rada offers quite a selection of "sales boosters" to help get your fundraiser noticed, either at an event with our table runner, banner, price cards or table top display box. Promote your sale by hanging a poster in local businesses or at your group meeting place. Advertise in a newsletter with Rada product images available on CD. You can even use the car magnet as a mobile ad!
What is the difference between Event Sales and Catalog Sales?
A: The majority of groups sell from the Rada Cutlery catalog. Typically group members each are given a Catalog and Order Taker for them to show to their family, friends, co-workers, etc. The catalog is designed to make it easier for your supporter to browse and make their selections. Some groups choose to order items in and sell from stock. This allows customers to see what they are buying and eliminates the need to deliver items later.
Can we do a fundraiser in Canada?
A: You are more than welcome to fundraise in Canada. We suggest, because of the exchange rate and taxes, that you determine your own suggested price list. We can provide you with catalogs to write your own price so you can be assured that you will be compensated for these additional fees. You will also have additional shipping charges so you may want to adjust the processing fee on the order takers also. Please call our customer service staff if you have any questions about fundraising in Canada.
We are Going To Fund Raise
How can I get materials to start my fundraising campaign?
A: Simply click the Request Catalog button on this website and enter how many catalogs you need along with your name and address or you can all our customer service team at 1-800-311-9691!
How do we fill out the Order Taker?
Who should we sell to?
A: Everyone will appreciate a useful item at a remarkable price. A good place to start selling would be relatives, neighbors, family friends, co-workers, people in your exercise group, people at church, teachers and coaches.
How long can we run our Rada fundraiser?
A: We suggest you set a completion date of 2 to 3 weeks from when you hand out and start selling. You want to make sure everyone has at least a couple of weekends to meet with friends and relatives. If you make the campaign too long you might take the risk of someone losing the selling materials or customers may not want to wait that long to receive the items they ordered.
What price do we charge?
A: The price in the catalog is what you will charge when selling. To make it easier to add, we have rounded each price to the nearest quarter.
How much will our group make?
A: 40%... no matter how much your group sells. If you sell $30.00 or $30 million, you keep 40%. Your success is totally up to you and your sellers!
Who should our supporters make their check payable to?
A: All checks should be made payable to the name of the organization/group.
Do we charge sales tax or pay Rada sales tax?
A: Rada will NOT charge sales tax on any order from a non-profit group or organization. Some states require you to charge and collect from your supporters and made payable to the state. Please call your local County Courthouse for any questions about sales tax.
I have relatives/friends that live out of town,
how do I sell to them?
A: Rada offers a free online account for your long distant supporters to place orders and for you to receive the profit. To sign-up call our customer service team at 1-800-311-9691 and they will provide you with the login information and password. Your group shares the login information with friends and family outside your area-usually via email and Facebook. Orders placed online are shipped directly to them. Your supporters will place their orders at www.HelpOurFundraiser.com. They will pay the same prices that are in the catalog. The profits from these sales are directly deposited to your group's bank account once a month. Note: Internet Fundraising is a great way to get add-on sales but is typically not as effective as the traditional face to face requests to support your cause.
What is Internet Fundraising?
A: Your group shares the login information with friends and family outside your area – usually via email and Facebook. Orders placed online are shipped directly to them. Your supporters will place their orders at www.HelpOurFundraiser.com. They will pay the same prices that are in the catalog. The profits from these sales are directly deposited to your group's bank account once a month. Note: Internet Fundraising is a great way to get add-on sales but is typically not as effective as the traditional face to face requests to support your cause.
What is the processing charge on the order taker for?
A: We want you to make the most money you can for your group/organization, so to help you share the cost of shipping the order, we have added a $0.50 processing charge to each individual order. This is your group's money to help pay for some or all of the costs of shipping the order to you. Depending on how many orders you collect, this may pay for part or all of your shipping costs.
We are Done Fundraising
What does the order form look like?
How do I fill out the Order Form?
The Mailing Code/Customer # is blank on my order form, what do I put there?
A: If you have ordered from Rada Mfg. previously you have a customer number either listed in a yellow box on the back of a catalog or on a previous invoice in the top left corner. New customers may have a hand written "inquiry code" in this box or it may be blank. If it is blank you can write the word "NEW" in the box. You will be issued a customer number after we enter your organization in our system.
What is the difference between Organization and Ship To?
A: The organization is considered our "customer" in our computer system. The organization will always have the same customer number and (if applicable) the same shipping information. Many organizations change group fundraising coordinators yearly. The ship to address would be the name and current address of the fundraising leader. You may ship to the organization or we can ship to the name and address of the fundraising leader.
Can you drop ship?
A: No, we cannot drop ship individual orders. You have the option to ship to the organization's address or the fundraising leader/coordinator.
What is the difference between Street Address and Mailing Address?
A: A mailing address may include a PO Box or a US Mail receptacle number and a street address is a house number and street name. If you have a PO Box and a street address please list both options. We may ship small packages through the US Post Office so we would need the PO Box or mailing information. Large packages are shipped UPS or Fed EX and only ship to street address.
What is the tally section on the order form for?
A: When you receive the order taker forms from your sellers, simply mark a line in the tally box by each item for the number of items ordered. Do this for each order taker and when finished, simply add up the tallies for the total of that item to be ordered.
What is the difference between the Cost Each column and the Sugg. Resale column?
A: The Cost Each column is the price you will pay Rada or also called the "wholesale price". The Sugg. Resale is how much you charged your supporters for the item.
How do I total my order?
A: Multiply the number in the Qty. Each column with the price in the Cost Each column and write the total under cost for each item. Then add the cost of each for the Total Amount of Order.
How do I know how much I pay you for my order?
A: The column "Cost Each" is the wholesale cost that you pay Rada. The money you have left is the profit that you donate to your fundraising cause.
Do we have to pay shipping charges on our group order?
A: Yes, the shipping charges are based on the "Cost Each" or wholesale amount. You do not pay shipping on the total amount that you sold only what you owe us.
What is a COD order?
A: If you would like to pay the balance of the order to the UPS driver upon delivery (only by cashiers check or money order) you will be charged and additional fee for this service. Please make sure to enter this amount on the Order Form BUT ONLY if you request this service.
What type of payment method can I use?
A: We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, checks (not available outside the United States) and money orders.
What is a Simple Sorted Order?
A: The Simple Sorting process was developed to help make sorting easier for the leaders of larger groups/fundraisers. The orders are bundled by salesperson to make it easy for you to distribute when you receive your shipment. The leader is provided with a profit summary of the amount that each salesperson sold and this service is FREE with a qualifying order of $1,000 in sales or more. For more information click the "Ordering Tab."
What is the difference between a Regular Order, Traditional Order and a Sorted Order?
A: A Regular or Traditional Order is an order that you sold less than $1,000. You will tally all the items onto the order form and send us the one order form. When you receive the order from us you will then sort each item according to the order takers. A Sorted Order is for a group that has sold over $1,000. You simply mail the order takers or enter them on the web (not need to fill out the order form) send us 60% if what you sold plus shipping and we will bundle each sellers order into individual packages. When you receive the order back from us you simply distribute the bundles to each seller.
How do we qualify for the simple sorting?
A: If your group sold $1,000 or more you qualify for Simple Sorting see link under ordering

A: You should receive an individual box/package for each seller in your group with their original order taker enclosed.

What if I have people that ordered too late and still want to order?
A: Some people are procrastinators so an easy way to add profits to your fundraiser is to do a follow up order a few weeks after you distribute the first order. You will be amazed at how many people will decide to purchase additional items to add to their collections!

Who is Rada Mfg. Co.
What does RADA mean?
A: Rada is a family name of the owners. It is pronounced "ray-dah" but many of our customers say "ra-dah". Either way is fine by us and it probably is used about equally between the two pronunciations!
Where is Rada Mfg. Co.?
A: Rada Mfg. Co. is located in the heart of the Midwest in Waverly, Iowa.
Where are the products made?
A: All Rada Products are 100% Made in the USA – materials and workmanship.
How was Rada started?
A: Rada Cutlery was first produced shortly after World War II. Surplus military knife blades were available at a fraction of their value. The process for casting aluminum handles was developed. The availability of surplus blades was brief and was soon replaced by the high quality, surgical grade stainless steel blades still used today.
Like many upstart manufacturers of the time, Rada Mfg. Co. utilized various buildings to meet their needs. One of the locations was a former fortified military radar base used to monitor air space during the Cold War. In 1986, the manufacturing operations moved to the current facility. There have been four additions to accommodate customer demand since then growing to over 60,000 sq ft of production, warehousing, shipping and customer service space.
How many people work at Rada Mfg.
A: Rada Mfg. Co. employs approximately 100 people that live in Waverly and the neighboring towns. Our goal is steady growth and we are proud to say that we have never had a layoff!
What guarantee is on the products?
A: Rada Cutlery has a lifetime guarantee. Rada Mfg. Co. will replace any product manufactured by our company returned to us due to defects in material or workmanship.

John Fiske's Notebook, Photograph courtesy of James F. Cooper, Oklahoma State University
One of the earliest manuscripts in the Phillips Library is a notebook kept by John Fiske (1601-1677) during his several pastorates at Salem, Wenham, and Chelmsford, Massachusetts. Fiske arrived here from England in 1637 and worked in Salem as physician, part-time schoolmaster, and occasional assistant to the Reverend Hugh Peter until about 1641, when he went to Wenham. He became the first minister of the First Church of Christ founded there on October 8, 1644. In 1655 Fiske moved to Chelmsford, where also he was the first minister, and remained there until the day of his death on January 14, 1677.

Discussion in 'Pistons and Basketball Articles' started by dba, May 17, 2009.
What about the Lions?
Contraction actually makes a lot of sense. If the teams can't make money with a salary cap, then maybe the market doesn't support 30 teams.
If the Lions decided not to play for a season, the die hards would come to their senses.
That to me is the question of the ages. How can so many be duped into actually buying game tickets for the Lions all these years?
All I hope for is that a hot dog will still cost me $8 at the game after the dust settles.
Is that with, or without?
Hey dba, any chance we can get an updated analysis for this past season? Then we can see how ridiculous the various contracts awarded this offseason were.
Separate names with a comma.

I've been trying to get my kid involved in the 501st stuff. Mainly the charity end of things and finally, on his own, he approached me and asked if he could do a Jaster Mereel costume. I had to look this character up since I have not read any comics or SW books. Does anyone have any good pictures of the Jaster character than clearly shows his guns and markings?
Very proud of the kid and want to make sure I get him setup with a good costume!

High schools have long been a bastion of gender policing, most recently punishing Constance McMillan* and Alexis Lusk for their sexuality and gender. And now, at Mona Shores High School, the cissexist administration is using homecoming as an excuse to champion the gender binary. Oak Reed was voted homecoming king recently by his classmates and friends. Since he is trans, school officials decided that that simply wouldn't do.
Assistant Superintendent Todd Geerlings said the issue is simple: The ballots gave two choices -- vote for a boy for king and a girl for queen...And, in school records, he said, Oakleigh is still listed as a female..."They told me that they took me off because they had to invalidate all of my votes because I'm enrolled at Mona Shores as a female," Oakleigh said.Oak and his friends are understandably upset. He was surprised because school administrators and teachers had already given him the basic respect of treating him as his actual gender. "They let me wear a male tux for band uniform, and they're going to let me wear the male robe and cap for graduation...[Teachers] call me Oak, and they say, he, him, his."
His classmates, the ones who elected him in the first place, have intensified their support of their king. One student, Nick Schrier, started a Facebook group called "Oak Is My King" protesting the school's decision (click on the link to join!). The group suggests writing letters to the local paper and wearing shirts proclaiming their support of Oak on the day of the game. "It's the senior class that votes for their representative," Reed said. "What they did was taking away the voice of the senior class."
The article profiling this incident is at first benign, but actually another example of cissexism masquerading as objectivity. The reporter avoids referring to Oak's very clearly stated gender through pronouns; Oak is constantly referred to either by his first name or as "the teen". Alone, this would be troublesome. But especially in conjunction with pained references to Oak's prior name and surgery plans, it betrays a cissexist denial of Oak's gender as truly his on the part of the reporter.
An arbitrary popularity contest is far from the biggest struggle facing trans people today. But this is an excellent example of how cissupremacy and the kyriarchy are regularly perpetuated: by making sure that the genders of trans people are seen as less legitimate and less real than the genders of trans people.

Vidiots. That's what I call them. My youngest son is a vidiot, if he could make money playing video games he'd be all set :roll: I've always known video games were addicting for some. Thankfully he seems to be able to set the control pad down occasionally and walk away. :lol:
I just read an article regarding a young man who makes over 350K doing video games and competing in competitions around the world from his living room. He won a car before he could drive. He tells stories how his parents would forbid his gaming as punishment and now he does advising to game companies, gets advanced copies of games for his testing, travelos to on site competitions and the like.

'Buffalo Sabres defenseman Rhett Warrener is not on track to win a Nobel Prize in medicine. He's no good in a laboratory, and not much help in an operating room, either. He can't do anything to change the Dickensian horror that has colored Carly's past. So he doesn't try. Instead, Warrener took on the role of Honorary Chairman of Carly's Club, a charity founded by Carly and the Collards through the Roswell Park Cancer Institute.'

|yeah you might lose some "feel" but that doesn't mean you willo have a crappy day riding or anything, it just means you lose some feel. if you feel that feel is super important to you then go with a really soft binding.
|What do you think about this feature: "This binding is not for people who want direct feedback from their board."? I'm interested in buying this bindings and heard that that because of that you loose board feel is it true?
|Has anyone tried the Ride CAD and Rome Arsenals. I'm looking for a good freeride binding and haven't seen a lot of good options. Sounds like those two might be my best bet. A comparison would be helpful. Thanks.
Thanks for the replies guys. Yup. Aluminum is totally preferential to the rider. I immediately realized when I strapped in that the tweakability that I used to have was completely gone. But thats the compromise, for when you're going extremely fast over chop, the last thing you wanna feel is all the crud you're sliding over. I learned feeling every little thing is really fatiguing, especially to the knees.
With these new bindings, I can say without a doubt my freeride setup is nearly complete. I can see it now: I have Ride's stiffest bindings, I have Burton's stiffest boots... My Rome Anthem may possibly be the next part of my setup to go... And then I'll go totally crazy. Cateks, anyone?

I've got some Ride Contrabands and like the aluminum.
Here's what confuses me - I was at a local shop checking out boards and bindings and the salesperson - who is actually pretty knowledgeable - told me that ride bindings aren't great because they are inflexible. He said they cause a "dead" spot on your board. He was recommending Burton Cartels which I understand are great bindings.
so, who is right? I like my Rides and hated the Burtons I had on my borrowed board, but I'm just a newbie at this.
|if you are getting pressure points from the toe straps then you are probably cranking them down too tight. They don't take a lot to get them to stay without slipping. Try backing off a few notches and I think you will see less pressure points with no loss in response from these bindings
|I absolutely love my Ride CAD bindings. They are super responsive and unlike my Cartels, the webbed toe cap doesn't slip.
2009 Ride CAD Review
Hey all!
I got in about 7 hours of riding on my brand new Ride CAD bindings. Holy crap the response on these things is insane! They are rock stiff, and offer almost no flex edge to edge nor laterally.
For bombing purposes, I am NEVER going back to composite bindings ever again. I've been wasting away on my 2007 Burton P1's this entire season not appreciating the the fact that there is a whole other realm of binding: aluminum. I can lay down thin, fast, high G carves with absolute ease. Holy crap I have been wasting so much damn kinetic energy with my P1's all this time!
At first, I thought the footbed was a gimmicky feature. I worried that it would reduce some of the response of the binding since it is a completely detachable piece that slides in and "stands" above the baseplate itself. It actually acts as somewhat of a suspension system, dampening a lot of the undesirable feelings that may be caused by a more "direct" footbed-baseplate designs. Stomping landings also feel pretty good with these. Response and comfort. Can't beat that! This binding is not for people who want direct feedback from their board.
I haven't fiddled with the adjustable CANT feature on my footbed yet. You can adjust the height of each individual corner of the footbed for those who like to have their foot slanted at an angle, whiever direction that may be. I dunno if I will get a chance to fiddle with this feature this season. I'm still getting used to the damn aluminum.
1. Ratchets: These ratchets don't hold a candle to Burton's smooth glides. They're pretty clunky in operation.
2. No ankle strap "height" adjustment: I prefer the strap to go around higher up on my ankle. It feels kinda naked (a bit looser) up there.
3. Toe strap: I prefer Burton's leather cap strap. The stretchy rubber straps on these...while definitely gripping better, are creating new, unpleasant pressure points... maybe time will tell on these.
(4.) This isn't so much a gripe as an observation that, through no fault of their own, aluminum bindings are inherently HEAVY. They are nearly twice as heavy as my P1's.
I know I'm comparing two completely opposite types of bindings in this review, but I have several observations. Burton seems to make a much more aesthetically and functionally refined product in the little details. In comparison, these Ride bindings seem sterile and mechanical. Tons of metallic hardware, screws everywhere. Setup was an absolute nightmare. The sacrifice in creature comforts is totally worth it when you can go flying down the mountain!

I don't usually cover genealogy matters in Scotland (English ones keep me busy enough!!), but I thought I would make an exception today. FindMyPast has just released the 1901 census for the whole of Scotland which means they now offer on their .co.uk site Scottish census 1841 – 1901. This might be handy to know if you have ancestors in England who lived in the counties which border Scotland.

Discussion in 'The Trash Can' started by Proustable, Jan 20, 2013.
I remeber William Thompson had FSU account (fomer Canadian GEO)
I don't have a strong feeling about V/M moving to another coach.
However, I feel pretty strongly that V/M and D/W should not have the same coaching team.
Somehow, I don't see either moving, but then we never expected Igor to split from Marina either.
People unofficially thought that way, because Igor took American citizenship and Marina Canadian, and there was a subjective feeling that he preferred D&W and she preferred V&M, though I have certainly read comments going the opposite way. Still shocked they both stayed with Marina.
I don't really care anymore. My biggest reason for them to leave Marina was so they could have better choreography, and now they have it, so it's all good. The championships are going to come down to who gets their levels at Worlds. Igor is supposed to be better technically, but I don't see C&B, C&L, or R&T being so consistent with getting their TES scores either. ITA though, that the Shibs have got to go.
Completely agree re: Scott's hair. It looks 1000% better than how he had it at nationals.
Although his hair looks best when it's slightly gelled up so it isn't covering his face. That way it has a bit more body.
Well I feel like Tessa and Scott don't need Marina as much now that they have Swan. But they need Igor's amazing tech work.
Also I love the idea of them getting to work with Marina Klimova (and Babs to a lesser extent)
Gala EX from T&S http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4t81RyuFQg !
I'm happy to see them again
Well CL got the first level four on steps. And remember that Tessa and Scott are much better than any of Igor's current teams and would benefit more from his teachings. And CL are getting GOE through the roof on a lot of their elements compared to last year.
Hmm, I go back and forth. Sometimes I like it when it is out of his face, but I also like the look at the Nationals version of PF where it was in his face. Decisions, decisions!
My impression is that these days V/M is focusing on the art first, and the real push to get all the levels happens later in the year.
I feel the same way and have for a while. I don't see the benefit in the arrangement any longer and think it's a distraction at this point (when they are fighting for the same title) to always be looking over your shoulder to see what Marina is doing with the other one. I know both teams say they don't do that but I think it's obvious they do. Not even the bubble can protect them from that tension
And I'm not "oh my god they must change coaches". I'm just stating what I believe to be a fact just as Krylova did last year. It's an impossible situation. I haven't seen the K&C with D&W at 4CC but I saw a big difference in the K&C with Marina at US Nationals and Canadian Nationals that I think she is also feeling the strain.
How is it obvious?
I also don't see any benefit to the current coaching situation. Fine, yeah, rivals can push you, but it's not good to be in a situation where you're having to skate like that every single day. Fact of the matter is that Marina is unable to give both V/M and D/W what they want; I agree with the sentiment that V/M and D/W should not have the same coaching team.
Like someone else said upthread, one of the big reasons I wanted a coaching change last year was for better choroegraphy. Well, they have that (and then some) now. Their programs this year are both outstanding and worthy of V/M's extraordinary talent.
I'm not convinced that Igor is a solution anymore than I'm convinced that he's some technical godsend. Yes, he's a good technical coach, but his teams have struggled too this year. I think Krylova is just as good. Her teams aren't doing any worse than Igor's are.
Leaving marina isn't even under consideration by these two teams you can bet on that.
It is a leg cramp guys ... She still undergoes physio right? I don't think 4cc is that important anyways. Looking forward to the battle at worlds!
I think I will just leave it a I think it's obvious. If someone else doesn't agree or see the same I think it's fine to just leave it that way.
On another topic am I the only one who thinks "love is not a victory march" is bad luck?
I know. And I wouldn't want V&M to leave her alone with D&W. I think Marina has vision and will fight for her team. I just think when you have two choices for the top spot it's a win/win for her. In a perfect world I would rather V&M had Marina and Igor D&W But neither of them will give her up so it's just a dream.
As for the leg I agree, she'll be fine. A little rub and off she´ll go on to *** worlds
It was very important in that after losing the GPF, they needed a win over D/W going into worlds. Now, D/W have two wins over them this season. That's not good. Losing worlds will mean no wins over D/W in the year before the Olympics, which will hurt them next year. So, yeah, it was imporant.
Did Anisina Peizerat were hurt at 2002 OG because they get only second place at 2001 WCh?
But i dont care. They are doing all they can to do now. Maybe even they push Tessa to much his time. So could they change something?
They change all judges ask them to change. Even spin. They didnt work hard on choreo? Or not practice too much&
No, they do everything and this is half sport, and half of art. I just wish to belive she is OK and they could enjoy WCh and OG not thinking only about medals, but have fun.
I think next season is a clean slate for V&M and D&W. If worlds weren't in their hometown I honestly wouldn't even mind them coming in second as I think it's easier to knock someone off the podium than it is to stay on it. I think Worlds results is more crucial for the other teams as they jockey for position. When it comes to V&M and D&W the material will be crucial and getting an early start on the season which V&M have said in one interview they are already planning on doing. I think this season got off to a very late start for both teams and for V&M at least meant learning new lifts at the end of the summer as those lifts they doing clearly were not in the original Carmen program
I think now we need more postive discussions. We could talk abouyt coaching changes after the end of the season. I only this T-S dont need to do World team throhy this year. But they alwayse wish to compete.
Now T-S will have a little rest, i think. And maybe they will made new exibition for home WCh. What this could be?
Do you think they'll have a new ex or maybe bring back ANMHE? Since they're doing SOI again I expect them to have at least one new program. A part of me too hopes they wouldn't do WTT. The other selfish part wants them to so I can see them again.
Yes, i think they will show new exibition at WCh. And wll have two different numbers in CSOI. Maybe one number will be SD or FD.
I think they will go to WTT, but i feel like they need to have some time for rest and start working on new programs before CSOI.
I am not too concerned about not winning 4CC...every year it seems there is a panic, and then it comes to the world championships (or in 2010 the Olympics) and they peak and win... so they don't peak to early and win all the early events. C'est la vie!
Even if they do not win worlds I think their shot at Sochi is VERY strong. IF (b/c remember it has not happened yet) they win the silver and D/W win the gold at worlds that sets us up for a VERY exciting Olympics with two of the best teams ever coming in as two-time world champions. If (and again IF) they win worlds, D/W will be even hungrier for gold and the pressure will be even more on Tessa and Scott to win in Sochi as 3 time world champs. Of course it would be nice for them to win in London, but I am fine with whatever happens. Either team could be injured tomorrow...I wouldn't plan big coaching changes and panic about politics and posturing because of one event.
and no, I think they will keep their EX through worlds... they did ain't no mountain high enough at last year's worlds. Their ex seems special, I imagine they will want to skate it at the JLC
I was so happy to hear Scott and Tessa skated at the gala. Tessa looked so ethereal and happy during the skate - and almost like she was overcome with emotion at the end, the way you wish for all artist to feel at the end of a performance.
Let's all just try to enjoy them while we can and keep all the negativity at bay. They've won almost everything you can imagine in the sport and have achieved such amazing milestones at such a young age. Everything at this point is just icing on the cake
P.S. We should probably decide on a new thread name ASAP. We're getting close to 1000 posts.
I'm at work and I can't watch it. Did Tessa skate okay?
She looked great to me.
Then again, look someone else said (can't remember who) I had no idea she was skating with the pain she was in during the Olympics. Tessa is nothing if not a fighter.
But do you remeber she said at OG during skating she was lucky to not feel this pain?
I like how they wallzing at the finale. They wasnt shown a lot off time, but even this few moves look so easy and graceful
I'll be honest it was hard for me yesterday. I wish I had read Jess's post beforehand and just stayed in our bubble in here (though it too has been infiltrated by some haters) because it's very ugly "outside" right now, very ugly. And it just made me sad for them; I've never been more happy they don't have social media outlets. But anyways I'm just glad Tessa's is ok and that performance of Hallelujah was on a completely different level than the past ones.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Stuckey.And1, Feb 6, 2009.
Comments on Pistons' Amir Johnson mentioned in trade rum - 02-14-2009
But that means we'll be giving some other lucky team the keys to the Championship!!!!11111111
Epic. Simply epic.
RealGM: Basketball Wiretap Archives: Stoudemire Would Welcome Trade To Detroit fuel to the fire?
I guess, JD trades for Amare only when he can get verbal agreement for contract extension.
Feb 09, 2009 11:22 AM EST That news is 6 days ago Abe Froemen . Amare is most likely going to chicago. NBA markets the young and trendy - Chris Ballard - SI.com
I hope something can still be done. Hanging onto exipring contracts is one of the more overrated aspects of the NBA in my opinion. It rarely seems to workout as planned. Prime FA's usually re-sign with their old teams or are traded to teams that they do re-sign with before hand. Then you have to go out and overpay for players who were not your 1st choice because you have to put a roster together for the upcomming season. We saw a mini preview of this 3 years ago when Mohammed was given that 5 year deal. What was he - plan C or D. I know he was not the 1st choice. In our case we would probably end up overpaying for Boozer. That is if we are lucky because there is no gurantee that he would want to come here.
Gentry in, Porter out for Suns Porter is officially out, and is replaced by gentry. Will the Suns trade Amare now???
Different times. How many teams will be looking to shed salary and would prefer expiring contracts or even nothing in return? Or we could be the facilitator in a three way deal. We will have more cap room than any other team except one, and there is NO WAY something does not happen this summer. Joe is holding all the cards. Its just a question of taking the best deal that presents itself. The more patient he his, the better that deal is likely to be, as team's get more desperate to off load salaries.
Amare's on record raving about Gentry so i'd say no.
did the pistons actually offer sheed and amir? judging by mccoskey's latest blog...it's entirely possible (and that it may still be an open offer should kerr change his mind): DETNEWS | Weblog | Pistons Blog
But at leest we still have AMIR!
At least we know Cleveland has no chance.
Cleveland is a lock for the 6 game ECF. At the least. And 200 bucks says that they are in the Finals.
2012 Baby!
I think this is all pure speculation by Hollinger, but interesting enough to note anyway. The Pistons have the contracts (Iverson and Sheed) that Phoenix wants to acquire both Stoudemire and Shaq... John Hollinger's Insider Gems: Feb. 16, 2009 - ESPN
It's possible that our points in the paint would go up a little.
OMG...that's awesome. SHAQ-FU!!!!!!
The no-fastbreaks-ever-again style basketball we'd be playing after that trade would be so predictable. Every posession would go like this: 0-10 seconds: Stuckey walks the ball up the court and gives it to Prince. 10-20 seconds: Prince holds the ball in his left hand away from the defender (Note: Shaq arrives and posts up around 15-18 second mark 20-24 seconds: We play one of the following sets:Shaq gets the ball in the low post and scores with 1 second left on the shot clock.Prince tries to lob the ball to Shaq and turns it over.Prince gives the ball back to Stuckey for an offensive foul or a contested, off-balance 3pt attempt at the buzzer.For the entire posession, Rip tries to convince Amare to set a screen for him.
I don't know about that deal. Think I would rather finish out the season with what we have and take our chances this summer.

I am looking to secure a pistol or two, and have done some research on small quick access safes, and came across Barska safes. Does anyone have any experience they can share with Barska safes. On a side note i saw a video on you tube done by security labs, and they recommended not buying other safes made by different manufacturers due to the ease of breaking in the safes. It was quite scary how easy it is to get in them without the fingerprint, key, or code. Wondering if Barska is the same?
Thanks for the help.

I used to hunt there quite a bit, but haven't been there in the last 5 years.
My 1st trip there, in 99' was the most unbelieveable hunt of my life!!
Most people don't believe me when I tell them that we had as many as 500 mallards coming in the holes at a time, then I show them the video we took. It was one of those trips of a lifetime!!
Is it still as good as it used to be?
I'd love to make another trip this year, and get in some good ol' timber hunting...

So I've been searching this site for a while and seen a couple people with similar problems, not quite the same but similar.
I thought I'd try their fixes and hope it works for me too but so far no success. Anyone willing to help a noob or point in the right direction please?
I have an Acer 5100 with Atheros 5005G wireless card (I'm not sure if that's the actual card for this laptop but th 5005G driver works fine on windows. Some people's Acer 5100 uses the AR2413 driver, not sure if they're interchangeable.)
When I type the command, modprobe -r ath_pci, it gives me the bt$# prompt but if I do the ifconfig or the iwconfig commands, it shows eth0 and lo.
(( Very similar problem in this thread: forums.remote-exploit.org/showthread.php?t=12211 ))
However, I have tried what archangel and pureh@te suggested, but for one, I do not have a wireless card option in the BIOS. And for two, I connect fine to the internet before I try unloading the module.
Any advice please?

This is in the last hour on another site I am on.
House Committee decides NOT to have hearing on SB2899 this session.
It means new gun control laws in Illinois are dead for now.
I am not sure this is accurate info.
Least let's hope so.
We all no if this is true it will be resurrected in the next session.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
When will fan companies get the clue that they need to put reostats on the fans themselves.
Ive got a couple of fans from generic manucaftures that have a small control lead coming out of the motor, with a screwdriver controled reostat to adjust the speed with. Its not THAT much more expensive to add (i think i paid $2 more over a generic 80mm for them) and it should be standard on any performance fan.
Plus it would be nice to see a rear mounted fan control knob on a slot plate (like most other performance fan manufactures like thermaltake or zalman), instead of a front mounted one...especially in a 3.5 slot. Seriously, ive only got one external 3.5 in my current case, and it has a much needed floppy/card reader combo drive in it. I simply dont have room for it, and i shouldent be penalized by reduced functionality becuase i only have one 3.5 external bay.
The seconed issue that i would have with it that is running the cables to the front of the case. I have enough shit up front already. I dont need another cable getting it the way, especially a small annoying one.
And ironicly enough, my next case will probibly be a Silverstone mATX case. And that case doesnt even have an external 3.5 slot...oops. Way to market research your own products Silverstone.
I think a little bit more market research into the fan industry would have told silverstone to make a rear card plate, then a front mounted, silver, ugly MASSIVLY knobed, 3.5 slot controler.
Just doesnt make sense to me.
I personally havent used the fan. SO i cant comment on performance, or from personal experience. But these are some shortcomings i see with the general design, that really remove from the precieved value of the unit. And would be a big shortcoming for most people expecting to get a good near silent fan.
Oh, you got that db meter from RadioShack yet.
|Rob Williams
|I can't see that being a problem at all. I don't have means here to test it, but I am sure it would work with no issues.
|Is it possible not to use the provided fan controller, and instead use a multi-channel controller, wouldnt mind a set up using a couple of these, even as over kill as that might seem, lol it's not a bad thing every now and again but surely wouldn't want to use up 2 or more 3.5 bays with seperate controllers. Might be a silly question but rather double check with someone that's used them rather than take a guess.
|Rob Williams
SilverStone FM82
If you are looking for better cooling, but don't want more fans to add to the noise, Silverstones FM82 may be for you. It promises to be the most silent 80mm fan out there. Let's take it for a test drive.
Check out the review here and then discuss it here! Questions and all comments are welcomed.
