Arsenal beat Liverpool three times last season; twice in the Premier League and also in the League Cup.
But this season the Reds have a new manager in former Fulham boss Roy Hodgson.
So can Arsenal expect to see a new-look Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday? We spoke to Dave Randles of the Liverpool Daily Post and Echo to get a Merseyside perspective on this weekend's clash.
"The chose Roy Hodgson to succeed Rafael Benitez for a number of reasons. Firstly because he was affordable - there were some fans talking about the likes of Jose Mourinho and Guus Hiddink but Liverpool couldn't afford such high-earning managers and Hodgson is in the next bracket down from that. The second reason was the keenness within the boardroom to revert to a British manager. They had relative success under Benitez and [his predecessor] Gerard Houllier but there was a feeling that they wanted to go British again."
"Looking at the two Europa League qualifiers against Rabotnicki, the Macedonian side, it does look like Hodgson has brought a change of tactics. Under Benitez, Liverpool would labour through qualifying games early in the season but there was more freedom in their play in the two games so far. In the second leg at Anfield we saw some fantastic link-up play between Joe Cole and Steven Gerrard and the Liverpool captain was playing with a smile on his face again, something fans haven't seen for some months. I think the signing of Joe Cole could be key to the freedom and expressive play that Hodgson would like to deploy."
"Milan Jovanovic wasn't Hodgson's signing but he had tracked him at Fulham and was happy to take him at Liverpool. We saw him at the World Cup, he scored Serbia's winner against Germany. He can play as a lead striker or on the left and it looks like that I where he might play for Liverpool. Christian Poulsen is a player Hodgson worked with at Copenhagen about 10 years ago. He looks like a direct replacement for Javier Mascherano [who is the subject of media speculation linking him with a move from Liverpool]." Poulsen has played at a high level across Europe and should be able to come in and be tactically aware of what is expected of him."
"It's unlikely that we'll see Fernando Torres feature against Arsenal. The feeling we are getting at the moment is that it is too soon for him. Initially Torres was hopeful he might be back but from the World Cup final when he suffered his injury it was more or less three weeks to the day that he was told he would be out and this game might come a little too soon for him. Jovanovic or more likely David Ngog will replace him."
"Glen Johnson recently said Liverpool are looking to get back into the top four this season and that seems to be the immediate aim. Hodgson alluded to the same when he first joined Liverpool. Dropping from second to seventh in the space of 12 months was a long way to fall for Liverpool."

Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
I like a chartplotter at or close to eye level when sitting at the helm. Then it doesn't take too much time to look between the plotter and the sea, particularly in dicey conditions. Of course available space and possibility of blocking view are all considerations. Presently, my plotter is at the helm and I am getting a 7" screen which will be an improvement over my present 5" one. I plan on installing it in the same place; eye level and slightly to the right of center. Above the binnicle compass.
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
The chart resolution will be night and day. You can mount a stainless steel rail in front of the helm, if you don't have one already, and easily attach a pod to it.
However, I prefer them under the table where you have it now. Another alternative is above and behind the table, which makes them easier to see. I think it is a little easier to step around a bigger unit if up high, as it isn't hitting your knees, but I like them below for aesthetics. If the unit is twisted on its swivel to one side, it should theoretically get narrower.
|Gene T
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
Dual helm. I have a swivel pull out mounted under the table. But if it gets wider than about 9 inches you can bump it when moving around the cockpit. But an e7 (which is just over 9") will look pretty small from the helms. Mounting at the starboard helm would be OK but space is limited and it would probably get in the way. I would prefer a 9" wide display that is not wide-screen. Oh well. You take what you can get I guess. It will be easier to see than what I have now I imagine.
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
If you are mounting under a cockpit table, can I assume you have dual helms?
If so, I highly recommend a swivel pod to move it to better face whichever you are sailing from.
In fact, there are pod systems to mount a plotter to just about anything.
|Gene T
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
I agree that upgrading makes sense. One thing that bothers me is the size of the newer units. Wide screen displays seem to be designed for power boats. The largest display I would want to put under my cockpit table would be the Ray e7. That seems pretty small for something that is not close to your face. Not sure where I would mount one near the helm. The positives would be I could add AIS, radar is pretty cheap now at under $1000, a second display below is perhaps unnecessary due to compatibility of an ipad. There are reported problems interfacing with older autopilots. I am still unclear if the first series SeaTalk works with the new SeaTalk(hs). I am also confused about charts, built in or add on differences.
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
If you can afford it, definitely upgrade. First, you will be grinning ear to ear for an entire season when you see the difference. Seriously. Second, it is one of the best ways to improve the value of your boat. However, not by the full investment. As a generality, your current stuff is literally worth zero. New models are worth about half what you pay for them, if you thought to sell or refinance your boat. If that sounds bad, consider that most anything else you spend on your boat is worth less in value, typically because you are just fixing stuff that isn't supposed to be broken or fully worn. Electronics are somewhat optional, however, on larger boats, modern electronics can be an expectation.
As a rule, I prefer to keep all systems from the same manufacturer: plotters, radar, autopilots, etc, etc. Whatever needs to talk to each other, that is. It keeps them from pointing figures at the other brand in the link, if and when you have an issue.
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
C90w and digital radar packages are very resona Bly priced right now. No matter what you buy it will ave an improved model in 6 months. Get one that lasts and meets your needs don't spend for features you won't ever use. All my ST69 instruments were constable with the C90w and are linked in.
|Gene T
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
The C90w looks pretty good, but I notice it is already obsolete. Maybe get one while they last. Looking at them online I think the C90w might be a better unit than the newer C95. I could get a C90w now and replace the nav station unit with a newer panel mount with radar and AIS later. Newer models should be compatible with the C90w for several years I would hope.
I noticed the RC530's on ebay but $500+ w/o warranty or support is absurd, I would put that cash towards newer tech. History shows they sell for below $200, I can wait for more sensible sellers.
I need to get into a retail outlet and check out usability and charts. Ask questions about compatibility with my older ST60 instruments and the st7000+ autopilot.
I appreciate all your input.
Re: Chartplotter died, time to upgrade?
I like the Raymarine stuff too. The new AIS is great in the integration as well as with the new digital radar. My choice to go with the c90w was threefold. I already have st60 instruments and autopilot, and like chick said plug and played instantly.
1- The screens on these chartplotters get dirt/ salt mist on them so very easily because of the environment they are in. I have a C80 which I fastidiously kept clean with the proper wipes etc, but even so after 4 years the screen had scratches on it dulling the picture much the way a pair of older sunglasses has. This screen was not the principal way of finding data with a finger like the e series/ hybrids are. running you fingers on a screen with salt on it constantly ( gorilla glass or not) will eventually scratch it up
2-my wife will get us 5 menus ahead on a touch screen vrs buttons and dials
3- The screen on the c890w is larger/ the pixels on both were the same for clarity ( much better than my older c80), and I didnt need the wifi/ bluetooth
Both are good choices.

Did you get this going??
I seen a home built walk in oven using about 30 oven elements. could powder coat a whole car in it. 3 race mod chassis were done when I was there. no fans. didn't want dirt floating and getting on your work.
|I have built my own powdercoat ovens for years. I even took some of my ideas and put them on a dvd I sold on ebay. In the dvd I showed how you could build a 3' wide by 4' tall by 6' long oven for under 500.00. I sold a bunch of the dvd's for 29.95. Then I noticed several guys using my design and building and selling them on ebay. So rather than fight it I just let it drop. So I will tell you all what I do. First I build a perimeter frame from 1" sq. tubing and build 2-1/2 doors and hinges to mount them on either side. of one end. I build runners to fill in the gaps from 1/2" sq. tubing almost like you would build a wall in a house. Except that I put them flush with the outside. I paint everything with high temp exhaust paint to keep it from rusting. Then I use 3 sheets of 20 ga. sheet metal to line the inside. and I flange the ends with a roller but you can use a pair of flanging pliers or put it up against a edge and just beat it over to a 90 deg. flange about 1/2". I cut the pieces about 1/2" smaller than the inside for expansion. when I put the pieces in I seal the edges with furnace cement. and this will sound weird but I only use one screw per panel. I then wrap the whole thing with 1" thick ceramic wool insulation. I cover the outside with corragated sheet metal like you would use on a barn. I buy 3-220 volt heating elements for commercial ovens, I get them on ebay for the most part. When I am on ebay I look for a electric oven thermostat and a #1 magnetic motor starter. I mount these on the side of the box and place the heat sensor at the 3/4 from the bottom on the side about half way back from the front. I put a vent in at the top that is only a 1" hole but I mount a 3" roof flange with it centered right over the hole. I then use 3" double wall vent pipe to the out side. I don't use a fan but I do put a heat deflector over the heat elements that are mounted to the bottom. For this I use a piece of 1/8th inch steel and cut it so that it is a inch smaller than the bottom of the oven and mount it with stand off's so it's a 1" above the elements. I add some things for conveniance like doors that open with a step down lever and then spring back so your hands are free. I also built a T shaped track at the top center. And some small rollers with hooks so you can slide a part in thats hanging. I have also built a rack on wheels that has a track just like it that ties into the track on top of the oven and you can slide some large items in and out with out touching them. I wire the elements to the output side of the magnetic starter and then use the temp control to turn the elements on and off. I wire up a idiot light to tell me when the elements are on. So when the light goes out it is at temp. I also rig up a timer so that it will shut it off when it gets done. I have run these ovens for many years and it cost about twice what it costs to run a household oven. I have added some picts of a oven I built for a friend of mine just to put ceramic coating on exhaust's. He builds custom kit cars and has a walk in oven for parts coating. And I have a pict of a motorcycle frame too just to show that this works. I have looked long and hard for the DVD master that I made and cannot find it anywhere. But this is not hard to do and I would be more than willing to help someone out. I always thought this would be great for a club to share expenses. Thanks Bill
Here is an update on the kiln I used for powdercoating. I wrote a book on how to do it using a programmable circuit called the Arduino:
Powder Coating an Arduino
Untitled Document
I have done over a 1000 small parts now. Kilns are cheap on craigslist often. The ceramic industry is in a slow down.No one can afford the labor anymore and kilns are plentiful:
matus: i use a regular oven for powder coating, they are free and come with a thermostat, heating element, insulated and a door.
my spray booth is an old tv box
This is something I did this morning. It is made from 3/16" plate. The color is Eastwood "smoke Chrome" which is more of a metallic grey. There is a powder coat clear coat on top.
I measured my kiln and it is 17.5" octagon 18.5" deep. There are much larger kilns though. Automated ceramic kilns are getting pretty popular in the ceramic industry and non automated kilns are going pretty cheap. Used ceramic stuff in general is pretty cheap.
The nice thing about a kiln is it warms fairly quickly and you can do some higher temp coatings. I can fit exhaust from my MGB in this...It has a Chevy V6. That is about as large as I could put in here. I am going to make a stand to support things which sits in the bottom.
Today I did an accelerator, an MGB brake/clutch assembly bracket and a box (non car related) which was about 12x10x8.
Anything big I take to the professional powdercoater down the road but this is convenient for small-medium sized stuff.
|You do need vents. Some powder coatings give off materials during curing that need to be vented out. Commercial ovens turn the air over several times an hour. The dampers need to be max 85 percent. Another words a closed oven will be a problem. The vapors coming off some powders are hazardous.
What are the internal dimensions of that kiln?
I am using a ceramic kiln as I type for powdercoating.
I originally set this kiln up for heat treating metal. I have yet to experiment with it for that but it is a natural for powdercoating. It is capable of holding temps to 2400 degrees.
Old ceramic kilns can be pretty cheap. You will want to look at the coils as old kilns often need replacement coils. It is not hard to replace them and they are not that expensive.
To control the circuit, I use a microprocessor circuit...which you could do too i you have any aptitude to electronics.
First I am not using a core microprocessor but a package system which is fairly basic in operation. I have been using what is called an OOPIC but they fell off the face of the earth over night. A very common replacement would be an Arduino.
I don't know if this is in the scope of what you can or want to do but it is how I approached it.
In the programing I pick climb rate fast or slow, peak temp, hold time. I am going to modify it to use two peak and hold times.
I have a 55g drum I am experimenting with. I put the part in the drum and spray it. I am thinking of a low volume fan/filter in the side to keep the airflow going through.
Pick my temp, pick my time, drop in the part.
It is real easy for assembly because I can turn on the kiln, sand blast a part, clean it, coat it, fire it and within an hour or so be putting the part back on the car.
powde coat oven
first building the box approx 36" x 48 " either cold roll or hot roll sheets w/ angle iron for frame. large holes on oppisite side for venting system , cover vents with maybe dryer vent metal parts. For thermometer using a oven thermoter buy one for 4.00 at walmrt. oppisite side lower bottom drill large holes for electic fan, I have old window fan w/ speed adjustments , i will also cover and make intake vents. bellow inside the the box will be where i can slide in the hot coals tray maybe 6" deep 12" x 12"
of coarse it will be insulated so the part im baking does not get direct heat, heat will come from sides lower and upper to sort off cause a convection effect. I also plan to put side rails for racks and a swivel hook an exuast vent to avoid high pressure problems. door piano hinged double walled with insulation approx 40 " and Coal door flip down approx 7 " I estimated cost around 300.00 when completed, time to complete approx 12 hours.
Considering the cost for a large oven thousands more this my best bet, i will send pics when complete and pics of my completed projects.
|Thanks,lots of good info!
Lots of good info and powder coating supplies also.

FOX's Rosen falsely suggested Bush policy satisfied veterans' demands on "concurrent receipt"
FOX News Channel White House correspondent James Rosen [1] falsely claimed that President George W. Bush had expanded veterans benefits by eliminating a longstanding provision that forbids disabled veterans from collecting their full military pension from the Pentagon on top of disability payments from the Veterans Administration. The truth about "concurrent receipt" -- an issue that Senator John Kerry highlighted in the presidential campaign -- is that Bush signed a compromise measure that falls far short of what veterans groups requested and what Kerry advocated.
Using Veterans Day as an occasion to report on Bush's record concerning veterans issues on the November 11 edition of FOX News Channel's Special Report with Brit Hume, Rosen reported that "President Bush signed into law a measure allowing the dual payments, phased in over several years":
ROSEN: Senator Kerry also faulted the administration for opposing what is called "concurrent receipt," under which they can receive retirement pay and disability checks at the same time. Defense Secretary Rumsfeld did oppose concurrent receipt, a $58 billion imposition on his department. But Rumsfeld did not get his way.
In the end, President Bush signed into law a measure allowing the dual payments, phased in over several years.
But thousands of veterans are still forbidden from receiving the dual payments under the measure Bush signed, as several veterans groups have noted. The fiscal year 2004 National Defense Authorization Act (section 641) authorized concurrent receipts only for "military retirees with service-connected disabilities rated at 50 percent or more," according to the Congressional Research Service summary [2] of the act. That means that thousands of disabled veterans with disability ratings [3] of less than 50 percent are not disabled enough to receive both of the benefits to which they are entitled individually. Rosen did note that the measure is "phased in over several years"; in fact, the phase-in lasts ten years.
The advocacy group Paralyzed Veterans of America, which publishes the influential Independent Budget [4] for veterans each year, is unsatisfied with these provisions. Its 2004 agenda [5] explains (the group's use of a ten-year "phase-out" period refers to a gradual end to the ban on dual payments, rather than a phase-in of disability payments):
Although the offset is being phased out for veterans 50% or more disabled, this is especially inequitable where the military retiree is totally precluded from employment by service-connected disability and is still adversely affected during the 10-year phase-out period. Moreover, a disabled veteran who does not retire from military service but elects instead to pursue a civilian career after his or her enlistment expires can receive full compensation and full civilian retired pay. A veteran who has served this country for 20 years or more should have that same right [to receive a full pension that is not offset by his or her disability payments]. The veteran should not be penalized for choosing the military service as a career rather than a civilian career, especially where in all likelihood a civilian career would have involved fewer sacrifices and greater rewards.
Veterans of Foreign Wars, another influential veterans group, welcomed Bush's compromise as a first step but also remained unsatisfied. A VFW leader commented on the provision in a November 13, 2003, press release [6] concerning the Defense Authorization Act quote:
VFW Commander in Chief Edward S. Banas, Sr. said: "The VFW recognizes that this legislation addresses only the most seriously disabled retirees. But it corrects a century old inequity and brings us one step closer to achieving the VFW's legislative goal of authorizing all disabled military retirees to receive their fully earned military retired pay without offset in the disability payments they receive from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Full concurrent receipt remains a priority goal for the VFW," Banas said.
Kerry's plan for veterans [7] pledged full concurrent receipt for veterans: "John Kerry thinks this policy needs to end. As president, he will enact 'full concurrent receipt,' a policy that would do away with the archaic 1891 law and allow veterans with disabilities to receive both the retirement they've earned and the disability payments they are due."

Hey all,
New guy to the board, been on different forums for several years though.
I recently picked up an RPD parts kit and have not yet decided if I want to have Project guns build it for me or if I want to build it myself.
I find it incredible that blueprints and data sheets on the original specs are so impossible to find...
In any case, I have 2 questions.
1) I am thinking of buying a semi parts kit from Project Guns. I understand they are $125. The question is do they come with instructions on modding the lower and bolt carrier? I am pretty confident I know everything that must be done already, but some written out directions would be the nuts.
2) I love the looks of Project Guns shorty versions. The 14in with the M60 flash suppressor is just bad ass! but I wonder about and fear the potential for feed issues with the shorter barrel as there is so little barrel left after the gas hole for pushing back gas and cycling the carrier. Does anyone have these short and beautiful beasts yet? If so, any reported issues?
Thanks in advance :)

As I pictured, I've got a very handy vise for my gun work. In addition, I've found it good to have on hand the following:
Proper gun screwdrivers. I buy from Home Depot and shape myself.
Spanner bit. For Ruger Base pin nuts.
Pin punches of various sizes
Plastic faced hammer or mallet
Needle nose pliers
Angled needle nosed pliers. (For stubborn base pin removal)
Swiss needle file set
Pick and hook sets (for hard to reach springs)
Arkansas oil stones
Taps and tap wrench (for removing cases when heads have blown off)
Having these few simple tools will save many costly trips to the gunsmith.

AMES, Iowa – Agricultural drainage is an important management tool for crop production in many areas of Iowa. Design, installation and maintenance of drainage systems is the focus of the Iowa Drainage School Aug. 20-22 at the Borlaug Learning Center on the Northeast Research and Demonstration Farm near Nashua, Iowa.
"Iowa Drainage School provides educational opportunities for all interested in drainage whether they be contractors, farmers, consulting engineers or county officials," said Matt Helmers, agricultural engineer with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. "This Extension and Outreach school focuses on the fundamentals of drainage design including getting an accurate survey, drainage pipe size and spacing, controlled drainage and water table management, legal considerations, and different installation techniques and equipment."
The three-day school features classroom lecture and discussion combined with team problem solving and field exercises. Student teams will survey and design a drainage system for a sample area of the host farm, using concepts learned during classroom discussion. By attending this school, participants will be able to plan and layout subsurface drainage systems and work out project costs.
Registration for the three-day school is $325 per person if registered by midnight Aug. 7. Late registration is $375 and must be received by midnight Aug. 14. Class size is limited to 40 participants and pre-registration is required. Registration includes meals indicated on the agenda, refreshments and notebook.
Additional information, a detailed agenda, and online registration are available at www.aep.iastate.edu/ids.

Students are eligible for registration or for graduation after they have fulfilled all requirements, including the payment of all financial obligations to Northern Michigan University. Students who incur obligations while enrolled may have their enrollment terminated administratively and summarily for failure to pay that obligation.
Tuition and Fees
Tuition is defined as the mandatory charge to attend class and receive an entry (credit or audit) on a transcript. All tuition rates are approved by the Board of Trustees.
A fee is defined as a mandatory charge for a student to attend a class or classes. Fees are approved by the Northern Michigan University Board of Trustees.
Tuition and fees are subject to change without notice at the discretion of the Board of Trustees.
Students who elect a half credit-hour course will be charged at one-half the cost per credit hour.
Auditors (students who attend classes but do not desire credit) are governed by the same financial regulations as students desiring credit.
Payment Plans

The 2008-2009 academic year rates are expected to be announced in July. Current tuition and fee rates may be obtained from the Student Service Center, 2201 C.B. Hedgcock, by calling 906-227-1221, or on the Web at www.nmu.edu/tuition.
Included in the on-campus 2008-2009 academic year tuition and fees rates are the following:

I refer to these texts on a regular basis, pulling them out to read at night during which I realize that being a librarian is who I am, not only what I do professionally. Books are a passion for me, a place of refuge, learning, laughter, and awe. They seduce me by their titles, the feel of them in my hands, and the promise of hours of pleasure or challenge.

alohawoot1 wrote:Absolutely not! That would suck big time! I'm pissed that I can't get this in WXL!!!
The AA men's L will fit you, if WXL Anvil is your usual size. I actually prefer the AA Men's L fit to the Anvil WXL.
I love your shirts HOWEVER
I do not know how your sizes run, I would normally take a Large/ Tall.
With your free shipping and a size that will work for me I will order 35 truckloads of "T"-shirts.
So add a TALL size so I can tuck the shirt into my pants and you will receive my incredible order.
(Also some questions:
(1) if size is incorrect what is your return policy)
(2) Why don't you have "T"-shirts with a pocket for a cell phone
I second that suggestion. I'm firmly in the pro-AA, not-a-big-fan-of-Anvil sizing camp and I frankly don't pay as much attention to the Woot emails as I used to. I'd be delighted to see more of the AA, but even if it is only once in a while, as it seems to make quite a difference to a lot of people, it would be good information to have up front. Yay AA for the end of the world!
travelchic75 wrote:I would be forever grateful if "AA" could be added to the shirt title in the daily email should this ever come up again. I almost missed a sheep shirt, but for the fact that I felt compelled to examine the image in greater detail before deciding not to purchase the Anvil shirt. I love sheep.
Felicidades amigo!! amazing work.
Yup, I figured we'd see this one up here today. Congrats, Kevin!
Love the shirt and the color but they need more long sleeve shirts..it's cold outside!!! Brrrr!!!!
Add a pullover for this? Pretty please?!
On AA Blanks today? It must be the end of the world after all!
Love the design, and since it's on AA, I am definitely in for one (maybe 2)!
I love this design and would have ordered it if there were the usual sizes. What gives? Please make this available on the usual shirt blanks!!
Why are so may complaining about the AA shirts? All woot shirts used to be printed on AA blanks, And I personally loved them. Along with many other people. I believe its only been about a year since they switched to anvil.
And Um, do you remember what that was like... "O.M.G. what has woot done?!?! I'll never buy another shirt again!! "
The world must be ending if people are complaining about AA.
For me, its the reason I didn't pass on these sheep.
rom wrote:Good news! change it to permanently and it would be GREAT!
sucks i so wanted this especially on AA and i missed out in my size!! arghhhhhhh!! Please start using AA again and i would so buy many more shirts than i do now i HATE the way the new ones fit
This is a cute design! I wish it was available as a onesie though. =)
Makes me want to stargaze more than sleep. Lovely shirt, great mood, bonus pun...this is when I like shirtwoot! best. Congrats kevlar!
No kid's sizes?!? REALLY?!?
My son *loves* sheep (and counting)... he'd LOVE this shirt.
Why in the world do you not have kid's sizes?!? (in *any* brand)
You should make these available _for_the_regular_price_ after you get your blanks in (it's not your customers' fault if you can't source the product you're selling).
And please, *please*, *PLEASE* go back to whatever company you were using before you raised the price of the shirts. The kid's sizes have ADULT neck-holes... they fall off my kid's shoulders! The women's sizes look extremely awkward on my wife (unlike the old ones), and all of them have horribly weak stitching... I had one hem come unravelled before the 1st wash, others after one 1 or 2 washes! To compare, the ones I bought going back to 5 years ago are still intact with strong neck elastic!
The quality has gone downhill so badly that I buy a small fraction of the number of shirts I normally would have (seriously, I've passed on several I would have bought for my wife, kid, and myself many times because of the quality of recent shirts... this is one I'd be willing to make an exception for).
Love this design. Desperately want to know - will it ever be available in the usual sizes? Will there be another run in AA or only Anvil? I hate missing out on $12 pricing and I'm going to be very irked if I can never buy this shirt in my size.(Plus I would think there would be a market for people buying one or two sizes larger than usual so as to be a great sleep shirt.) I was prepared to buy three this morning - then my dreams were shattered.
So, Woot, please tell me I have hope....please?

There were complaints in the past too ... just a lot lot lot less than the complaints with the newer shirts. Can't please everyone all the time, y'know.
glabifrons wrote:No kid's sizes?!? REALLY?!?
They sold out of kid's sizes with yesterday's shirt ... which is apparently completely sold out now?!
And please, *please*, *PLEASE* go back to whatever company you were using before you raised the price of the shirts.
That would be American Apparel ... which is what this is printing on today (read the orange box!) for men and women sizes. Well, for what's left, at least ... Woot apparently cleared out AA's inventory too.

Not sure if it's a glitch or not, but all sizes are back in stock for this one
kevlar51 wrote:Not sure if it's a glitch or not, but all sizes are back in stock for this one
And now it's listed as sold out in all sizes.
Don't know if anyone else suggested this yet, but Woot, this would be awesome on a sleepshirt!!!!! I sometimes sleep in regular tees, but prefer the longer versions in case I have to get up and a non-relative happens to be around. They're also good for just lounging around the house on weekends.
Since y'all already have other options such as long-sleeve tees, hoodies, etc., surely your supplier could provide sleepshirt sizes? If you did that and offered it on a side sale, I would most definitely buy one of this design on it. Several other designs, too, in fact.
TT, could you please pass this suggestion on to the Wootlords who make such decisions? Thanks!
(And I'd be willing to cut my commission from 10% to just 5% of all sleepshirt sales if they do it.) ;-)
Debut day: short sleeve t (AA blanks for women and men)
I think it was on the main page when I ordered this and now I'm not seeing it, but... out of curiosity - when does this ship?
dreamofcaramel wrote:I think it was on the main page when I ordered this and now I'm not seeing it, but... out of curiosity - when does this ship?
For standard shipping, please allow up to 5 days for order processing. Thanks!
Just received two of these in the mail today. One WXL and one WL. The WXL is smaller than any of the WL shirts we've bought in the past. There is no way either of the people these were bought for can wear them.
Woot is addressing this for me. Really have to appreciate them for going beyond what was expected from them.

Lakeland – For the third year, the entire country is invited to come together as one community to honor the memory of those firefighters who died in the line of duty and reassure their loved ones that their firefighter will not be forgotten by participating in the Bells Across America for Fallen Firefighters remembrance.
The Lakeland Fire Department will join the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF), other fire departments, and community groups from coast to coast in this poignant tribute as part of the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend. The moment of remembrance will occur on Sunday, October 6, 2013 at 10:00 AM at all Lakeland fire stations and at participating locations throughout the Lakeland area. This day also marks the beginning of Fire Prevention Week.
"It is with great sadness that we ring these bells for fellow firefighters who have fallen in the line of duty. It allows us to reflect on the ultimate sacrifice they have made for their communities. It is my hope and desire to never have to ring a bell again because of a firefighter perishing while serving." said Lakeland Fire Chief Gary Ballard.
"The ringing of bells has a powerful meaning to firefighters. Not only do bells signal the beginning or end of a call, they also were used to notify department members that one of their own had died while serving the community." explained Chief Ronald Siarnicki, executive director of the NFFF.
Hundreds of fire departments, places of worship and other groups participated in Bells Across America for Fallen Firefighters over the past two years.

Grandma's Rosemary Dinner Rolls RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
4.5 4 4
My grandma (I called her Baba) made these in her coal oven. How she regulated the temperature is beyond me! She always made extra rolls for the neighbors to bake in their own ovens. At lunchtime, my mom and aunts delivered the formed rolls. —Charlotte Hendershot, Hudson, Pennsylvania
Featured In: 30 Timeless Family Recipes
- 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
- 3 cups bread flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary, divided
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup warm 2% milk (110° to 115°)
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup canola oil
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons 2% milk
- In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Place the flour, sugar, 2 teaspoons rosemary and salt in a food processor; pulse until blended. Add the warm milk, egg and yeast mixture; cover and pulse 10 times or until almost blended.
- While processing, gradually add oil just until dough pulls away from sides and begins to form a ball. Process 2 minutes longer to knead dough (dough will be very soft).
- Transfer dough to a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide and shape into 12 balls. Roll each into a 15-in. rope. Starting at one end, loosely wrap dough around itself to form a coil. Tuck end under; pinch to seal.
- Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- For egg wash, in a small bowl, whisk egg yolk and milk; brush over rolls. Sprinkle with remaining rosemary. Bake at 350° for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks; serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.

"No flavor except yeast. Hubby and I didn't care for them. Hubby put coarse salt on them to eat with his cheese as he couldn't find any pretzels at the store last visit. Won't make them again."

"Amazing! Great taste and texture! The only thing I did different was sprinkle with a little coarse salt in addition to the rosemary after the egg wash."

"I love making fresh rolls and I love cooking with rosemary. Using it in these rolls added great flavor."
Reviewed Feb. 17, 2013
"I would make this recipe again AND I forwarded the recipe to my fellow bread makers! I did have to use dried rosemary but I just used a little less. I also sprinkled sea salt on top of the rolls with the rosemary after the egg wash. Excellent! Even the kids loved them."


text: So, as the title says, what MMO is good out there right now that people are playing that is worth the time? I know ArcheAge is in CBT, so I'm not going to play it until release. I'm currently playing WoW and looking for something to join in on while I wait for Warlords of Draenor. I have WildStar, played it, enjoyed it until they did a lot of weird patching and class changes that made no sense that turned the game off for me.

Before we let sensationalism draw you into this piece, it should be made clear that DeAngelo Williams is still Carolina's No. 2 back behind Jonathan Stewart . The point is though that the Panthers' general manager acknowledged that "anything's possible [and] the roster is fluid" after a discussion regarding the addition of rookie back Kenjon Barner out of Oregon. Williams had nearly 30 percent of his rushing yardage and 40 percent of his rushing TDs in the regular season finale against the Saints. Before that, he was on pace to have his worst full season since his rookie year.
Fantasy Analysis:
Any fantasy owner who has owned Williams, even briefly, over the last four seasons already knows what I'm going to say. The former Memphis alumni has underwhelmed and has become expendable. He is 30 years old and is set to earn over $17 million over the next three years of his deal. Yes, he is signed through 2015. It isn't out of the question for the Panthers to consider moving in a new direction sooner rather than later since so much money is locked up in that contract.

I used my dremel with a sanding cylinder to get the general shape and smoothed it out with some 400 grit sandpaper and then used a felt wheel with brasso polish to finish. It doesn't look half bad, I'm pretty proud of myself. I don't know when I will get a chance to try it out though. maybe tomorrow.

It is rare when someone comes along whose ideas change science. Nobel Laureate Kenneth Geddes Wilson (1936 –2013) forever changed how we think about physics. Wilson left a legacy of his prize-winning problem solving in theoretical physics, the use of computer simulations and the modeling of physical phenomena, the establishment of supercomputer centers for scientific research, and physics education and science education reform.
Wilson was gifted mathematically at an early age. His grandfather taught him how to do mathematical computations in his mind. When he was 8 years old, he would calculate cube roots in his head while waiting for the school bus. This brilliant and shy young boy went through grade school and high school at an accelerated pace to enroll in Harvard when he was only 16 years old. He obtained his Ph.D. at the California Institute of Technology, did postdoc studies at Harvard as a junior fellow that included a year at CERN, joined the faculty of Cornell University and later Ohio State University's Departments of Physics. At the age of 46, he became one of the youngest winners of a Noble Prize when he received the 1982 Noble Prize in Physics based on his pioneering work developing a theoretical framework on the nature of phase transitions, such as the moment when metal melts at a certain temperature or when liquid transforms to a gaseous state.
OSTI Is Re-Focusing and Re-Balancing Its Operations – And Refreshing Its Home Page – to Advance Public Access
Let's call it creative destruction, borrowing from a popular term in economics. The idea is that the very essence of capitalism is the destruction of old structures and the building of new ones that inevitably face the same pressures as the structures they replaced. It's the reason the buggy whip industry fell on hard times. The information management business of the Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) is in constant flux too, where the next big thing can soon become the next big flop.
Aerogels are some of the most fascinating materials on the planet. They were discovered in the 1930s by Stanford University's Samuel Kistler who proved that he could successfully replace a gel's liquid with a gas by drying it, thereby creating a substance that was structurally a gel, but without liquid. Since their invention aerogels have primarily been made of silica but can be made of a growing variety of substances including transition metal oxides, organic polymers, biological polymers, semiconductor nanostructures, graphene, carbon, carbon nanotubes and metals as well as aerogel composite materials and the list is growing.
Just seven miles south of our OSTI facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee is a national treasure – the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). ORNL is DOE's largest multi-program laboratory where remarkable scientific expertise and world-class scientific facilities and equipment are applied to develop scientific and technological solutions that are changing our world. ORNL's National Center for Computational Sciences is home to two of ORNL's high-performance computing projects -- the National Climate-Computing Research Center (NCRC), where research is dedicated to climate science, and the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF).
Every day we are bombarded with advertisements in every form and format telling us that our lives will be improved if we buy a particular product because it will save us money, reduce our work effort, save us energy, or benefit the environment. We are justifiably skeptical because we know from experience that if something sounds too good to be true, usually it is. Light-emitting diode (LED) lighting is one of the exceptions. LEDs benefits are so powerful that they seem too good to be true; however, they actually do save us money, reduce our work effort, save us energy and benefit our environment.
Light-emitting diode (LED) lighting is a type of solid-state lighting that uses a semiconductor to convert electricity to light. LED lighting products are beginning to appear in a wide variety of home, business, and industrial products such as holiday lighting, replacement bulbs for incandescent lamps, street lighting, outdoor area lighting and indoor ambient lighting.

Indiana has been a national leader in school safety for more than ten years with the crafting of cutting edge legislation and the establishment of the Indiana School Safety Specialist Academy.
In an effort to take school safety to the next level, the Indiana State Police joined Governor Pence in supporting new legislation to provide $20 million to promote school safety in Indiana over the next two years. That proposed legislation (SEA #1) passed the 2013 General Assembly and became law immediately upon being signed by Governor Pence.
This new legislation will be invaluable in assisting school corporations with necessary funding to hire School Resource Officers to serve not only as a first line of defense in an active shooter incident, but also to provide additional security within the schools to combat drug usage, bullying, and other issues often requiring law enforcement intervention.

Discussion in 'March 2009' started by Dlev59, Mar 19, 2009.
Minor correction: ...he has been forced to give some of the guys opportunities lately... ;)
Yep, he's a keeper. If anything, for the entertainment value of him harrassing the likes of Brad Miller as he's lumbering up the court.
Agree 100%. The one thing that we can be happy about this season is knowing that our guard rotation is solid for next year. Rip leading Stuckey-Bynum-AA is a good mixture.
You really are great for me ego LOL j/k The feeling is mutual.
[STRIKE]Stuckey,[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]Rip[/STRIKE], [STRIKE]AI[/STRIKE], "Hey Will, get in the game." If he didn't call WB's #, it was going to be AA or Tay at the point... which would have been brutal.
Curry has never been afraid of making a brutal roster decision. Michael Curry looks sanity in the eye and laughs at it.
I feel ya brother. I wasn't blaming the loss on Hermann, after the game I had to vent on his horrible play at the end. I don't think I ever said only Hermann lost us this game. He was in at the end when we were on that run and I seen him let 6 or 8 points in the basket by himself in like one minute, and it just pissed me off. Needless to say I feel much better today, haha. I know Affalo couldn't hit a bucket last night. Stuckey shot like crap. Kwame's hands had butter coated on them. Tay actually played alright he wasn't superstar quality or anything, but he was playing pretty good. I just couldn't beleive Curry had Hermann in at the end, especially guarding Brad Miller.
Ah, my bad, for some reason I thought he was out more games last year with his hand. Well still, for a second year player he's pretty good.
That's a T-shirt.;)
So true. No one who plays in spot mins is going to have that kind of an impact and he is no worse that Jarvis Hayes, Flip Murry or anyone else that has masqueraded as an NBA player for us. On the other post. Curry gave both Stucky and Amir starting spots. Amir could not handle his chance. Kwame I would not call young but he could have been playing more. Afflalo seems to get the short end of the stick sometimes but look at last nights game. He is too inconsistant on the offensive end. We don't have much going forward. I was hoping more things would have worked out this year. Then again we have not had top 10 picks like the Bulls have had.
I'm not sure that's what I'd call a "good" mixture. Rip is the only one of the lot that even plays well somewhat consistently.
I am going to take exception to "Amir not being able to handle his chance". What chance was that? We won the first 4 games, with Amir starting. Then AI got thrown into the mix. Three games later, Curry decides since AI is so skinny, we need to play Kwame now instead of Amir. And very quickly, Amir was not getting minutes. The only thing Amir has done this season - play winning basketball. Regardless of who he is paired up with, except for Dyess, who shows negative paired up with anyone other than Sheed. Curry has a serious problem. Whether Amir has foul trouble or not, Curry does not like to play Amir minutes. And don't tell me its the results. The results are that we win. We outscore the other team with Amir in the game. Its Curry finding fault. Whatever fault he cares to point to. Since Amir does so much per minute he is out there, sure, you can find fault. A wise coach however would ignore the occasional mistake and concentrate on what Amir does on the positive side. Shadows their point guard up the court. Always gets back well on transition D. Rotates out to shooters very well. Has height, quickness, and enough size to guard ton of opponents well. Great on offensive rebounds. He can even shoot the ball - though Curry could care less, since he is only looking for reasons to sit the guy, and nothing more.
Lee - my impression or what I have found from listening to the post-games and whatnot is that Amir does not always follow the game plan. He forgets plays, out guarding guys that he is not supposed to. A lot of talent but I don't know. I am almost to the point where I would not mind seeing everyone traded over the summer. All the in-house garbage. Younger players deferring to the vets, vets wanting to take over games. Stupid pecking orders and who deserves to take what shot and when. All the resentment thrown back at AI over the trade. Guys playing for their next contract. Bottom line - We are not a team anymore. Not playing like a team. Not treating each other as teammates. Head coach who does not know what in the heck he is doing out there.
Do you really think that? Other than the CHI game, i've thought they've been pretty great about playing together. It's the only reason they've been in all the games in spite of all the injuries. It seems like that's the one thing they have been doing regardless of who's on the court for the last dozen games or so. I chalk alot of the confusion to the coach not knowing WTH he wants the players doing not them "freelancing".
...without ever having an oil change.
Completely agree lpgrl. If we weren't so decimated by injuries and if we had a somewhat competent coach, we'd probably still be in the hunt for 4th seed right now.
I don't know. Not like they used to be and not like other good teams are. The sum is less than the whole right now. I don't think we can use the injury excuse since the record has not changed much either way.
Separate names with a comma.

The two Romeos of the Mediterranean met in Rome most probably to discuss important issues such as which one has the most contact with women. Libyan leader, Muammar Gaddafi arrived with his all female body guard, dressed in khaki uniforms and red berets, while Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi gave them a good look over. The Italian leader has been beset with newspaper controversy over photos showing wild parties at the estate of Berlusconi including naked women. Gaddafi also had issues with photographs because on his chest was a photo of the Libyan hero Omar Mukhtar, the "Lion of the Desert" on the day before the Italians hung him. The Libyan lion of the night has arranged to meet with 700 Italian women in a gesture most probably designed to show Berlusconi he can win the the female game.
Berlusconi has apologized for the Italian era of being a colonial power and turned over about $5 billion to Libya. However, many members of parliament will boycott the Gaddafi speech because they do not wish to honor a man who imprisons the opposition and has been known to use torture or executions of those who oppose. There is considerable anger among some Italians of the latest Berlusconi agreement with Libya which allows the Italian navy to intercept asylum seekers and return them to Libya.

The picture of the nose of the fender you have been looking at is before the repaint of the orange peel area.
This picture is after the repaint of the clear. Sorry, my camera was switched to a High res mode, the picture will be large.

It looked like fisheyes to me too. A similar look can happen if the first coat is too heavy too. It's hard to tell in photographs sometimes.
My tip about sneaking up on the substrate by misting on the the first coat can also help eliminate fisheyes. A fisheye is what happens when the wet coat of paint breaks open over an oily or waxy spot. The paint has to be thick enough to pull away. By laying down tiny droplets of paint, they can't flow away from the contamination. The downside is the risk of ending up with a rough surface that translates itself to the surface of the final coat.
I think using a propane heater was mentioned. Any open petroleum flame will put oil in the air. All of that petroleum will cause fisheyes. To prevent fisheye contamination, all the air would need to be changed out in the room and the surface to be painted would need to be cleaned thoroughly with wax and grease remover. You may need to find another way to heat your work area.
Using "fisheye eliminator" isn't a cure. It's kinda like shooting off your toe because it itches.
It's possible with a super high solid clear and if the previous coat was left to flash a little too much or something like that it's possible but it looks an awful lot like fisheye to me.
Pretty sure it is orange peel. this part of the door was tipped away from me, and I just did not spray enough paint there.
The door was scrubbed with a nylon brush, using Dawn and water. There was a film of dirt under the moldings around the window opening. That was scrubbed with a nylon brush, until gone. And then wiped down with wax and grease remover, and before it dried, wiped off with another clean lint free shop wipe. Then sanded. And wiped again with W&G remover, before priming.

Ahhh... the nasty re-coat window. It's been a while since I sprayed PPG products. I've used Spies Hecker for years without even one episode of re-coat sensitivity.
I'll make a couple of comments that may help in the future.
Usually, I look at the spray order of the original colors from the factory. On this Aerostar, the gold accent color was probably sprayed first. Then the whole body was sprayed white, followed by clear. Doing it that way requires less masking.
For metallics to match correctly, it's important to have the correct color under them. In this case I probably would have sprayed the whole door white first, then sprayed the gold on the bottom. Even if that required spraying a different sub-color under the gold. The main reason being, masking over the white is less likely to leave a tape track. A mild tape track on a solid color can be removed by polishing... if you get one. But a tape track that affects the lay of the metallic is there forever. The only way to correct it is spray it again.
When dealing with re-coat sensitivity, you can sneak up on the substrate by misting on the new topcoat. Allow extra flash time and expect to spend at least twice as much time getting the panel sprayed. If you know you're going to have sensitivity, give up on getting a wet look in your final coat. Just get enough material on the panel to cut and buff. If you're lucky, you might end up with an acceptable level of orange peel.
Dealing with re-coat sensitivity is like walking on thin ice. You can fall in at any time. This is just one of the many reasons so many painters are thought to be alcoholics
Again, thank you for following me through on this.
I sanded the area with used 400 grit, on a block, literally taking one stroke of the block, and rinsing it. One time, I got a trace of white. There was still a few slight pits, left from the orange peel. It got up to about 48 to 50 degrees today.
Here are some paint particulars.
PPG DBC basecoat, white, mixed 1 to 1 with DT 870 reducer. Sprayed Wednesday night, about 7:30 PM, at CCC, at room temperature. Masked off around 8:00 PM
PPG DBC basecoat, gold mixed 1 to 1 with DT 870 reducer. sprayed around 8.15 PM
Masking for the gold was removed immediately after cleaning spray gun.
PPG DCU 2042 speed clear coat, mixed with DCX 61 hardener. 4 parts DCU, 1 part DCX 61, 1 part DT 870. Sprayed around 8:45 PM.
Here is a picture of the nose of the fender, with the orange peel.
Today, in the garage, I used a propane catalytic radiant heater, the kind about the size of a sunflower blossom, on a 5 gallon propane bottle for heat.
I masked off the nose of the fender, about 1/2 inch away from the sanded areas. There was not much orange peel where the mask lines ended up.
I mixed up a little more of the PPG DCU 2042 speed clear coat, mixed with DCX 61 hardener. 4 parts DCU, 1 part DCX 61, 1 part DT 860 reducer. I actually ended up spraying it wet. I did that this afternoon. Good flow out.
I used a teaspoon to measure out the paint. I ended up with two table spoons of mixed clear coat, and used less than half of that.
I just went out in the garage, and looked at the fender again, but left the battery for the camera on the charger, in the house. I will have pictures tomorrow. The repainted area looks good. No evidence of the paint lifting, but I need to sand the mask lines out, and then buff.
I have sanded and buffed gel coated boats. They are forgiving. You have sometimes .020 to .035 or more gelcoat thickness before you buff through the color.
Any advise on sanding and buffing the tape lines would be appreciated.
I almost forgot, the area on the door with the orange peel is under a piece of molding at the bottom of the window opening, and completely hidden.
Yes but there is a balance, you still need to sand the clear and you can't warm things too much and you can't have too fast a reducer. So you are on a little learning curve here. Just don't shoot it real wet and you should be ok.
OK, so lets see if I understand you.
Sand as little as possible, try to leave as thick of a film of clear on the orange peeled area.
Use a fast (cold weather) reducer, it will evaporate faster.
Have the metal warm, it will also force the solvents to evaporate faster.
Do not spray wet. Wait a little longer before the second coat, if needed.
Is all that correct?
It is sooo hard to make any suggestions when I don't know how thin it is. This is one of the most important parts about painting, putting a uniform "film" over the surface so EVERY SQUARE INCH Is covered exactly the same.
Don't feel back, I know plenty of pros who don't do it properly.
You could just sand it a little bit as to not thin it then apply more clear. But honestly, it's hard to say. If you sand it thin and don't apply the clear real wet or don't use a slow reducer, or shoot it when you have a warm metal temp, ANYTHING so the solvent doesn't soak down, you can get away with it.
I have some pretty bad orange peel in a few spots. My thought was to sand those spots, remove some texture, and re paint the clear, but the thin clear could possibly lift.
Would I be better just spraying more clear on the orange peel spots?.
Are there other options I have not thought of, to repair the orange peel, without going back to primer, color, and clear, or is this my only option?
You DO NOT want to sand the clear thin, that is what I was talking about with the recoat of clears lifting.
I got the door and fender painted last night. Here is the door.
and the fender.
The the parts came out pretty good, but there is a few problems. Some dirt, in the clear coat, some areas were dry, and some were a little wet.
On Tuesday, i got the door masked off, and primed. On Wednesday, went with the white, waited about 1/2 hour, lightly taped off the white, and sprayed the gold, and then removed the color masking, and overall painted the parts with clear coat.
I got some really good flow indicators on the bottom of the fender.
and here is another picture of the bottom of the fender.
I can lightly sand and then buff the clear coat, I could ask how much, but that depends on how thick the clear coat is, and you all have no idea of that.
The clear coat gives me a 3 day recoat window. So, if I sand through the clear coat, within the three days, can I just reshoot clear, as long as I do not go through the color base coat?
Also, there is some orange peel on a few spots. Can I sand out the orange peel, and repaint those spots?
Or do you experts have another suggestion on repair of my mistakes.
Learning how to paint can be fun!
Thanks all, for the advise!
Last night I shot primer on the parts. I am taking an automotive class, at Clackamas Community College. The class in in the evening, from 6:30 PM to 9:30 PM, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.
I am using PPG DBC for color. The data sheet says I have a 20 to 40 minute time to tape, for two toning. I also have to get it clear coated within 24 hours.
One plan, shoot DBC white, wait 40 minutes, shoot DBC gold, and then clear coat. I could easily run out of time, class is only three hours. I could also reverse the order of the colors, but if I can only get one color on tonight, it will be easier to mask for the gold after the white is applied.
The other plan is to shoot DBC white, and then clear coat it. Next week, scuff sand the bottom of the fender, and door, and mask off the white, and shoot the gold, and the clear coat.
I am using PPG 2042 clear, It's tape time is 5 to 6 hours, or I can bake it, and get the cure time down to 15 or 20 minutes.
I obviously need to talk to the instructor, and his advise. I will put the camera in to the back pack, and hopefully take some pictures of the progress tonight.

Big Story
DATELINE, TODAY - Boardsville was today rocked by an unexpected eclipse, as though the very world itself had be, dare we say, turned upside down! More after this...
I'm Lee Go, here at the city of the unexpected and highly unusual phenomenon. As you can see behind me, there's a 30-piece train set where our beloved city once stood. At its height, our city boasted over 200 LEGO-Compatible blocks. Now, they all seem to be gone, like some angry and powerful titan just decided they wanted to play with something else.
I've spoken with several scientists, who are already postulating as to what this means. Apparently a leading theory is that our world is but a KidKraft Activity Table, and that our city and home might be existing in another dimension known, and this is sort of complex jargon here, as a "storage under the play board." I hope I pronounced that right.
According to the scientists, there's a greater than 50% chance that, very soon, the titan will be bored with the trains and decide to go back to the building blocks and- wait, wait- can you feel that? It's like some kind of- LOOK! LOOK! THE GROUND IS ROTATING! THE CITY IS COMING BACK! IT'S BACK! BACK LIKE IT NEVER LEFT!
Well, we'll certainly never forget this day. Unless, of course, we really are just imaginary people in a child's dream. But if THAT were true, surely our most popular figures would all have weird and childish names like "Ga Ga" and "Boo Boo" and...
... oh. My. GOD.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a virus that causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. It's so common that most children have been infected with the virus by age 2. Respiratory syncytial (sin-SISH-ul) virus can also infect adults.
In adults and older, healthy children, the symptoms of respiratory syncytial virus are mild and typically mimic the common cold. Self-care measures are usually all that's needed to relieve any discomfort.
Infection with respiratory syncytial virus can be severe in some cases, especially in premature babies and infants with underlying health conditions. RSV can also become serious in older adults, adults with heart and lung diseases, or anyone with a very weak immune system (immunocompromised).
