The 911 Carrera GTS model range. More power and maximum torque is reached earlier. A faster throttle response and better acceleration. In short, a sportier driving experience. These are the most compelling attributes when compared to the 911 Carrera S models.
The figures say it all. The uprated 3.8-litre flat-six engine with direct fuel injection (DFI) delivers 300 kW (408 hp), 17 kW (23 hp) more than the 911 Carrera S models. The Coupé models complete the 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) sprint in 4.6 seconds, the Cabriolet models in 4.8 seconds.
Yet, in comparison with the 911 Carrera S models, there has been no increase in fuel consumption or emissions. This is not a contradiction, but a combination of dynamics and efficiency, of sportiness and everyday practicality. In short, it is our understanding of the sportscar concept. We call it Porsche Intelligent Performance.
Increased performance, with ideas that drive us forward – a principle that also reflects our approach to the chassis and to safety. All models are equipped as standard with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and Porsche Stability Management (PSM). In the all-wheel drive models, Porsche Traction Management (PTM) is also standard. It comprises permanent all-wheel drive with an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch, automatic brake differential (ABD) and anti-slip regulation (ASR), and ensures excellent torque distribution for outstanding driving performance.
The mechanically locking rear differential with asymmetrical lock factor is also fitted in the 911 Carrera 4 GTS models as standard (available as an option for the 911 Carrera GTS rear-wheel drive models). This feature further enhances traction and acts to damp load-change reactions during fast cornering.
The optional Sport Chrono Package Plus is the essence of motorsport, offering a more dynamic tuning of the chassis and engine setup. In conjunction with the optional Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), the Sport Chrono Package Plus delivers a further improvement in acceler-ation: 4.2 seconds for the Coupé models and 4.4 seconds for the Cabriolet models. Gear changes take place in milliseconds, with no interruption in the flow of power. Together, this spells 911 Carrera GTS.
911 Carrera GTS models: fuel consumption in l/100 km (mpg) urban 16.8 (16.8) – 15.3 (18.5) · extra urban 8.0 (35.3) – 7.2 (39.2) · combined 11.2 (25.2) – 10.2 (27.7) ; CO2 emissions 263 – 240 g/km

O-DAIKO, a barrel drum played in temples, theater orchestras and at festivals. This unusually ornate o-daiko, with its cloisonné stand and body, was made by order of the Japanese government for the Vienna Exposition of 1873, the first in which Japan participated formally as a nation. The drum's cowhide skins, decorated with lacquer-work dragons were never sounded. Instead the drum is a symbol of peace as indicated by the presence of a rooster atop the instrument. An ancient story tells of a drum placed at a village gate to sound an alarm during an attack. As the years passed the drum was never used. Hens and roosters began to live in the drum and this image became an emblem of contentment and peace.Possibly made by Hodenji Hayashi, Tohshima, Aichi Perfecture, Japan, ca. 1872.The Crosby Brown Collection of Musical Instruments, 1818.104.22.1686.

With so much flooding going on now, furnaces and water heaters may become damaged. The safety of homeowners can be at risk if these appliances are used. GAMA highly recommends that even the skilled do-it-yourselfers do NOT change out flood damaged equipment, but instead have a licensed contractor do this replacement work. Caution should be excercised by anyone being told that their flooded equipment can be "fixed".
With flooding in a number of states as the result of hurricane weather, it is important to remember that all flood-damaged plumbing, heating, cooling and electrical appliances and related systems should be replaced, rather than repaired. This warning was issued by GAMA, the national trade association representing manufacturers of appliances, components and related products used in space heating and water heating, commercial food service and power generation.
The association also recommended that all work on flooded equipment be performed by a qualified, licensed contractor, not by homeowners.
The GAMA warning stems from past reports of accidents resulting from improper
do-it-yourself repairs of flood-damaged appliances. One homeowner, for example, suffered severe burns in a flash fire that occurred when he tried to re-light the pilot on his flooded gas water heater. The association stresses that not only gas equipment is at risk but also units using oil or electricity as the energy source.
"Controls damaged by floodwaters are extremely dangerous," notes GAMA
President Evan R. Gaddis. "Attempts to use equipment with defective gas or oil
control devices can result in fires, flashbacks or explosions. And in the case of
electrical appliances, the result can be injury or even death from a powerful electric shock." The GAMA official noted that devices at risk include water heaters,
furnaces, boilers, room heaters and air conditioners.
The association stresses that the repair of flooded appliances and related systems (including damaged venting and electrical connections) is not a job for the do-it-yourselfer, no matter how skilled. This is particularly true of control valves, according to the GAMA official. These components are manufactured to extremely close tolerances. Once submerged in floodwaters, they must be replaced. Field repairs should never be attempted by the homeowner.
Often these repairs can be covered by homeowner's insurance.

Just curious - What is the connection between a HVAC business and being a doctor (as it states by the authors name)? At the bottom of the article it only promotes her family business and no mention of any other specialty. Is there some kind of PhD degree in plumbing that one can get?

Hello, John. The emphasis of the article is on safety. In my thirty-one years of being in business, I have occasionally encountered unscrupulous or ignorant persons that don't present or make good choices that cause injuries, hence I cited information directly from GAMA for credibility. Yes, lyn my doctorate is from Case Western Reserve University. I also spent over eight years in research and have patents in areas such as corrosion inhibition and surfactants. As for hats, John, some people have beards or six-pack abs or cute clothes, I enjoy wearing hats. As a matter of fact, that picture was taken in Kentucky this year. Each of us is different. Hope you enjoy what makes you different!

Economic interdependence isn't a bad thing, provided it truly is two way. We ...
China's top 10 economic challenges and the high-tech implications
Bolaji Ojo
We are not all racing to learn Mandarin yet, but most, if not all, working-age adults in the Western world and many developing nations know enough to keep an eye on news about and from China. For executives in all industry segments, China is the elephant in the room. It must be factored into any decisions about the future of their enterprise.
If any segment of the global economy can afford to ignore China's gargantuan role, it's not electronics. Over the last two decades, the industry has steadily and tightly yoked itself to the Asian nation. After transferring a majority of manufacturing operations and huge swathes of the supply chain to China, the industry faces the stark reality that it can no more do without China than the country itself could disengage from world markets and revert to a closed socialist economy.
Events in China will have a major impact on all the global economic segments that have become heavily dependent on the nation. This is obviously the case for the electronics industry. Most of its leading companies, if not all, have huge operations in China and are exposed to events there. Furthermore, the entire industry supply chain (not just the manufacturing end, as is commonly assumed) has significant exposure in China. As China goes, so does the industry.
In the last five years alone, China has set numerous records in high-tech marketshare. It has become the world's biggest consumer of semiconductor products, mobile phones, PCs, flat-screen TVs, solar panels, and a wide range of so-called white goods, including refrigerators and cooking ranges. By the way, it is just getting warmed up. As its middle class expands over the next decade (barring any geopolitical disruptions), China will overtake the Western world and become the leading market for medical devices and a range of other goods. Its aging population guarantees this.
Duane Benson
Economic interdependence isn't a bad thing, provided it truly is two way. We hear plenty of talk of our over-dependance on China and the economic vulnerabilities that come with that. I don't hear so much about, as you wrote: " it can no more do without China than the country itself could disengage from world markets and revert to a closed socialist economy."
The more interdependent we all are, the smaller and safer the world is. There is a lot of fear of China (both economically and militarily) in the US. How much is truly justified, I don't know, but the fact is it's there.
If we need them and they need us, and we all understand that we both need each other, the level of fear can drop and we cal all spend more time focused on building cool stuff.
I'm surprised at something huge being left off the list - admittedly a political hot button, but still very important.
As a result of China's population control efforts, they now have a generation with a large dearth of women. What will the impact of this be? Right now the imbalance is around 20 million and rising. Combine that with a population that is expected to rapidly age and shrink over the coming decades...
The Chinese era of economic dominance may be rather short.

Anadolu Efes is the Turkish Airlines Euroleague's co-leader in scoring through two games with 86.5 points per game. Fenerbahce Ulker has scored that same amount.
Efes is the league's top three-point shooting team through two games with a blistering 56% success rate from downtown.

Kerem Tunceri is 4 steals away from cracking the Euroleague's all-time top 25 in that category. Tunceri is currently in 28th place with 153 career steals. Charles Smith, David Vanterpool and Fred House share 25th place.
Tunceri (if in the starting five) will be making his 100th career Euroleague start.
Cedevita is ranked last in the Turkish Airlines Euroleague in free throw shooting through two games at 60%.
Vlado Ilievski needs 2 more steals to tie Niksa Prkacin for 11th place on the Euroleague's all-time charts with 190. Ilievski could reach the top 10 this season. Jaka Lakovic sits in 10th place with 198 career steals.
Ilievski played for Anadolu Efes for part of last season. He took part in all 10 regular season games before transferring to Lokomotiv Kuban in Russia.

MARLBORO, N.Y. -- A 16-year-old Newburgh girl was killed following a one car crash early Saturday morning. It happened on Western Avenue near Albertson Road in the Hamlet of Marlboro.
Police say Sarah Smith was riding in an SUV that collided with a telephone pole around 3:30 a.m. They say Smith was thrown from an SUV after Devin Pierre, 18, lost control and hit the pole.
Smith was taken to St. Francis Hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Family members say they are still in shock over what happened.
"It's just crazy. She's so little. She was my little angel. We were like best friends. We grew up together and it's just crazy that she's gone. My whole family, they're all in so much pain. We're all in a lot of pain. Many people know her and everybody knows that she was a great girl, beautiful, beautiful girl, smart, funny, fantastic person. Everybody just loved her. Send your prayers out for me and my family and her. We're gonna need it," said Dominick Morice, Smith's nephew.
Pierre and a second passenger, a 15-year-old girl, were also taken to the hospital and are listed in stable condition.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.

Was Manti Te'o Involved in the Internet Dating Hoax?
The Notre Dame linebacker has been topping news reports all week after it was discovered his dead girlfriend wasn't a real person, after all.
When news broke that Manti Te'o's dead girlfriend wasn't real, news organizations including CNN and ESPN hopped on the story and tried to get to the bottom of it.
While Te'o and the Notre Dame Athletic Department maintain that he was the victim of a 'Catfish' type of Internet dating hoax , others aren't so hopeful.
"Te'o actually thought the romance, which, like everything these days, started online, was for real," A Chicago Sun-Times writer argues. "And when he found out he'd been goofed on, played like a high school geek who just received a 36-month swirlie — plus, he had played along with his own lies — he grasped for dignity and killed off the chick ."
The term 'Catfish' was popularized by a movie and subsequent TV show, which explores online relationships and shows them to be fraud a majority of the time.
Do you think Te'o was duped? Or was he involved the whole time? Tell us in the comments and tell us if you've ever been duped like this.

These facts alone (from his own mouth in a Kafkaesque SI interview in October, 2012) convince me he was complicit in all of this.
He says they began "dating" after two years of continuous internet and telephone contact in October, 2011, although he had never actually met her in person up until then. (He says they eyeballed each other in 2009 at one of his football games in California.)
He says she was hit by a car in April, 2012, and was in a coma.
He says that in May, 2012, she was at the point her family had decided to "pull the plug."
He says when school had ended for him, he flew west to Hawaii on the very same day the plug was to be pulled, and that he would be in the air when that was scheduled to happen.
Although she was the "love of his life," he didn't change his flight to be with her when she died. He had nothing pressing waiting for him in Hawaii, and he says the sound of his voice on the telephone had appeared to have a positive effect on her.
There were no attempts at in-flight phone calls to the hospital.
He says that when he landed in Hawaii, he learned she had made a recovery.
He didn't take the next flight back to California to be with her. Ever. Even after she was diagnosed with leukemia and languished all summer.

Mike, I don't think there's much we'll find each other agreeing upon, but this is definitely one of them.
The kid seems to be an attention whore, and I know from my childhood even bad attention is still attention. So the press is only giving him exactly what he wants.
I feel so dirty now, having just agreed with the (ideological) enemy*.
*Just kidding about the enemy part.
Michael Fleming
12:57 pm on Saturday, January 19, 2013
Dear "enemy"...
Yes, we DO agree on this. It feels...odd...doesn't it?
Actually, we do agree on other things per our last conversation. Ten round magazines, (though you didnt think i was for that, for some reason) universal background checks on ALL gun purchases whether from a gun show or your grandmother, reporting of multiple gun sales. I am willing to bet that you would also agree on making all gun crimes a federal offense and a minimum 10 years in the slammer. That includes merely POSSESING an illegal weapon.
Due to the vagueness of the definition of an assault weapon, I am more cautious about an AWB, but if a hard and fast definition could be worked out, I'm am open to that as well, depending on how it is defined. Keep in mind, MOST weapons in America are of the semi automatic design. so if the definition comes down to merely banning all semi automatic weapons, I would be four square against that.
I AM, however, going to keep my bazooka....
But if I hear one more "breaking" story about this pathetic college kid, or for that matter Lance Armstrong, I'm gonna lose it....

Even if it was all his idea, theres no crime for lying and having people believe it just because it was on TV. Who cares people, he's possibly just a fellow troll and it's your fault for buying into it.

One of my main interests is a love of old pictures and postcards that give us a brief glimpse into a past and often forgotten age.
Collecting old postcard and pictures enables the viewer to glimpse a brief moment from that individual's life; often far removed from their own either by the passage of time or social class. Social History, often described as "history from below" shows everyday people, their social structure and the interaction of different groups; like the wealthy and politicians these people helped shape and maintain society and so shape history.
Examining the images one can't help but wonder how the individuals lived, were their lives hard compared with today and were they happy. Often the images come with little or no information that can answer these questions, one can only imagine.
With each image saved and seen by others, so that moment, that person is kept alive, our understanding is increased and so our lives are enriched.
However, although the picture are often more descriptive than words can ever be, but how true is this, if a picture enables us to gain entry to another time, another world, will, like the view from a different window, even in the same house provide a different image?
These images allow a glimpse into another time, another era; but what preceded or followed this image? As the individuals were positioned and posed like an artist's model is what we see truly reflective or like the slightly softened image of an aging beauty a less that truthful representation?
I am reminded of a documentary I watched several years ago regarding the returning troops from the front during the First World War. The camera images show a broken, demoralised sea of humanity, young men who having seen images that most of us hope never to witness had lost that sparkle; that zest which only youth has. But bring on the news camera and that battered returning group came to life, the smiles returned and even though muddied and bloodied their heads and bodies became erect, their arms swung in time and they demonstrated a swagger that spoke of courage, defiance and determination; an image that gave hope to the viewer.
It seems to me that even in the early days of photography all was not what it appeared and now in the advancing digital age a picture may paint a thousand words but will it be factual or fiction?
My interests And collections vary from Maids, Nuns, religious dress and the more risqué images of the French Maid. Often when searching for a particular subject the boundaries cross and as well as true Maids we find Edwardian actresses dressed as Nuns or Maids. During one of my searches I came across Gabrielle Ray dressed as a Maid, "Susan" in Lady Madcap and was instantly captivated by her.
Collecting the individual cards isn't enough; I like to know more about the individual, which is easier when that person is an actress, although often the information is scarce
Searching for information about Miss Ray I discovered that she was one of the most photographed women of the Edwardian era and described in "Temps" as the most beautiful woman in the United Kingdom; but sadly her success, if measured by being visibly working or in the public eye was short-lived. She struggled with depression and alcohol abuse, and her health declined. In 1936, she suffered a complete mental breakdown and was institutionalized for nearly forty years; dying in 1973 at Holloway Sanatorium at the age of 90.
There are several other sites and blogs dedicated to the memory of Miss Ray and my intention is to share my small but growing collection of pictures and postcards with anyone who shares my interest. Reading about Miss Ray I was saddened that this lady, like many others before and since, after a brief moment in the sun they are soon forgotten. Hopefully as people view and enjoy this blog her memory will remain alive for a little longer.
I have started to write a short Biography about Miss Ray which I will try to update as frequently as possible. The Index page will show any updates under the Biography catagory.
I have also tried to link the various postcards and pictures to the plays in which Miss Ray appeared, however I realise, after several errors that this isn't an easy task as many are decorative studio poses rather than production images. The individual Rotary, Philco and other publishers numbers are included with any description which should make searching for a particular card or ones from the same set easier. If I have made any glaring errors please feel free to let me know.
Thank you and I hope you enjoy my collection as much as I do.

A Sweet Jacket:
By Irenka
from Brampton
I can't imagune anyone being disappointed with this jacket. It is cute and modern. Fabric is great and I am sure it will wear well.I thought the collar would be a bit awkward, but no, it is cute and sits prettily around the neck. The fit is perfect to size but all the jackets I have purchased from Guilaum have been exceptional.I advise anyone to give this a try. It is a great bargain at the sale price and you could not do better.

Love it!
By Cori
from Calgary, AB
This is my first rain jacket and I love it! It's very comfortable, stylish and feminine especially with the ruffle collar.
By Sheshopsalot
from Medicine Hat, Alberta
I am a huge fan of this designer and have three of his pieces already so I was disappointed when I received this coat. Tried two different sizes but both had the same problem. It is VERY long-waisted, to the point where I tried to blouse it up & out over the top of the belt, but with no luck. The bottom of the coat blouses out as well, making your hips look three axe handles wide. And it's not "tan", it's more like light butterscotch. The snap closures are a little clunky. On the plus side, the fabric is lovely, the lining is lovely, and it has a fun little collar design. Too bad, I was looking forward to a new Spring jacket.

Great Spring Jacket
By Glennis
from Calgary
Nice runner up to the other spring jacket with the ruffle collar. This one is a bit more lady like, fits well. Thank you for putting the garment measurements back online, I can't say that enough. Every coat seems to have different measurements, so it helps me whether to buy small or medium. Nice addition to the spring wardrobe. Love the hidden pockets, snap buttons, beautiful color, can't beat the sale price either. Thanks Guillaume.

Femine light weight and comfortable..
By Aurie
from Ancaster ON
I really love this coat and would also like to get another in a different colour but tan was the only one left in my size.I would definatley recommend this coat.
By Long time TSC shopper
from WINDSOR
I totally agree with the other reviewers. Beautiful fit, stylish and so easy to wear. I had another Designs by Guilliaume rain coat that I bought several years ago. I liked it also, because it had a hood. The only problem with that coat is the hood was so large and once it was opened, you could never make it smaller again. It needed to have some kind of tab to hold it in place when you didn't need to wear the hood. It was a reversible coat. I do love this one though. It doesn't have a hood, but I guess that's what umbrella's are for.
Love it
By Penny
from Kitchener
I love my coat. Fits perfectly and thinking of getting it in another color for spring.
By Lori
from British Columbia
what a super trendy looking raincoat!pretty than pictured. looks great on. the quality & style is stunning!the tan is even nicer than pictured. almost a carmelly colour.wish there were more colours left in my size! would have bought more.thank you Guilluame for making xs. it's so hard to find xs that really are xs.
Very flattering!
By BB
from COQUITLAM
Fits perfectly. Looks fantastic even on a large figure. I would love to have this in a 2nd colour.
By Valleygal
from Ontario
This jacket is so cute you just have to try one! I wanted to get it in the blue...but I missed out again cause I waited too long...thought I would have learned that lesson by now...but anyhow the tan is simply beautiful. I was afraid that the collar might be too clownish but not at all!! It is just so feminine and stylish and it just makes you feel so good when you wear it..a real pick-me-up on a dreary rainy day..you almost want it to rain!! I'm not sure how it will wash but I'm hoping it does not shrink..won't know that for awhile though. At any rate for this price it is a great deal!

Juliliii Arechaga dies in Iraq by Joan Delaney (We thank the Randazzo and Arechaga family for speaking with us during this difficult time. We met on Friday, October 13, and the following conversation took place just hours before they left for the airport to meet Sgt. Julian Arechaga's wife Felicia, who was arriving with a military escort.) Flags are flying at half mast as Baldwinites pay tribute to one of their own, Sgt. Julian Arechaga, 23, who died in Al Anbar province in Iraq on October 9, when an explosive hit the Humvee in which he was riding. "We believe he was in the passenger seat, the most dangerous, because he wanted to be an example to his men. He was a good soldier; he loved this country and felt that the people in Iraq needed us, needed some kind of hope. I feel like I lost a son and a brother," said Russ Randazzo, the brother-inrlaw of Sgt. Arechaga. . Mr Randazzo, only 33 himself, and ^imT^ii his wife Sheyla, Sgt Arechaga's sister, who were married in 1998, helped raise the young Julian, whose parents were divorced. "He was a funny kid. He went to Plaza School and the middle school. Sheyla and I went to Open School Night there and people looked at us. But we wanted him to know that someone cared. "He told us no one cared, but we told him that we cared. He lived with us. I was waiting for him to come home. He used to kid me because I was the only guy in the house. His mother was here and my wife and the kids. I was the only guy and he used to say to me, 'Why doii't you just put on a dress?' He was like my brother, my son." Eventually, Julian attended Oceanside High School, where he was on the honor roll. He loved wrestling and the mairtial arts and anything to do with the military. "He came home and told us he had heard recruiters at school and that he wanted to become a Marine. He went weekends in Hempstead in preparation for boot camp. Boot camp was hard but Julian and another guy graduated at the top of the platoon. "His first tour he went to Afghanistan and was part of the big push during elections against the Taliban. He said it was hot, but he felt that they were doing great work. ©rt ici He came home and showed us pictures. "He considered the Marines his family and he was so happy being a Marine that we knew it was the right thing for him. "Then Julian went to Iraq, to Fallujah and it was tough. We know that he was involved in night patrols, getting intelligence. He was a squad leader and they were capturing insurgents. He won awards.

Unseen Legion Radio 2-26-2013
Episode 15: Putting Some Enk On It
Unseen Legion Radio closed out Graffiti Month with an inter-generational session as the great EnkOne and his son TristOne joined us in-studio. Along with the intriguing history and fascinating personal insights he brought, Enk also did double duty as he took calls from some fellow graf legends, including StroeOne and CCA founder CastroOne. Fellow InaSoulbian E+RO=3 also called in and updated us on the latest from himself and the Zypher Un Label. Michael Jackson brought us E.T. Episode 7 and DJJD's Song of the Week was a great one from De La Soul. Thanks for calling in, lil bro. DJ Earl-E kept everything cohesive with a very appropriate musical selection and the crew closed out the night by sneaking in another ULR Cypher featuring Bin Grim, MC Prose, Yeski Anomiks and TristOne. Thank you for checking out Unseen Legion Radio. Enjoy!

Episode 14: Graf Cipher Seven
The living archive of Los Angeles graffiti history was well represented on Unseen Legion Radio tonight as Westside/Venice legend Mark Seven was in the house. King Cre8 was also there and contributed greatly to the cipher, as did our many iconic call-in guests: Hen Gee, SoonOne, Chain 3, Design 9 and the professor of hip-hop pedagogy, Beatriz Rodriguez. Of course Yeski, Bin Grim and Prose were on hand to help connect the dots, cross the T's and handle all technicalities. And you know DJ Earl-E came fully strapped with some of the best music on this side of the afterlife. Speaking of afterlife, Michael Jackson and Richard Pryor seem to have resolved their spiritual differences as both made appearances as well. It was a night of legends speaking truth to the people Only on Unseen Legion Radio. Enjoy, y'all.

Episode 13: Combined Elements
The second week of Graffiti Month got an extra burst of energy when Menez and his potna JRatMonster invaded the station like a two-man street mob. Of course that's exactly what Unseen Legion Radio was hoping for.True B-Boys held a meeting of the minds and love and skills were shown by all. DJ EARL-E started us with a special J-Dilla birthday dedication and that set the vibe for another great show. Highlights include plenty of stuff you never knew before, a slammin' freestyle session held down by our guests, call-ins from CRE8, MARK SEVEN, BIN GRIM and JUGGLA VEIN, and DJJD gave us an L.A. classic for his Song of the Week. Michael Jackson continuing his gripping storytime and of course DJ Earl-E kept us locked in the mix. All in a commercial free package, couresy of the good folks at Unseen Legion Radio. Where "The crates run deep, with an ear to the streets'" is more than just a catchphrase. Much love to ya.

Episode 12: A King Speaks
Unseen Legion Radio made it to a dozen shows with the official kickoff to Graffiti Month. Of course we gave it the royal treatment as the great King Cre8 graced us with his presence, an abundance of knowledge, wisdom and understanding. Our apologies for the abbreviated playlist, but on this night the background music was not the point. A King was in the building and over half the show was a high-level session with a master of his craft. Cre8 gave us history, technique, critique and humility. We spoke on all elements of hip-hop and the spontaneous knowledge that came up was mind-blowing. He even brought a dope CD of music with him and blessed us with a classic signed piece. DJ Earl-E brought plenty of heat to set the proper vibe. He also gave birthday big ups to Bob Marley with a set so nice it inspired the MCs to deliver a blazin' top-of-the-head session to close the show... listen to the killradio.org archives in the next few weeeks to catch the extended mix where we give you a few more verses. One love, y'all. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Episode 11: Building in the Building
It was a meeting of the music and the minds on the final show of the first month of 2013 for Unseen Legion Radio. The great DJ A-Ski dropped by to bless the show with his amazing skills, humor, 0perspective and wealth of knowledge. His live mix set showed a master at work, seamlessly sliding from Soul to Hip-Hip and back again, cutting, mixing and blending the whole way. Our conversation showed A-Ski to be an Unseen kindred spirit with a deep-rooted love and a long history of making music. His imprint, Unique74 is doing big things and his new album, Change the Mood is available now. Michael Jackson also continued his storytime and DJ Earl-E laid down some great tracks to celebrate the birth of his daughter that same morning. Now that's what I call building. Thank you all for downloading. You're welcome for the music.

Episode 10: Unseen Unplugged
DJ Earl-E was without the use of his usual Macbook/Serrato setup tonight so he came straight from the crate to the plate right out of the gate tonight. Lots of great vinyl saw its turn in the rotation, including an all-ladies R&B set featuring our friend LAURNAE. Jacksonville, FL was in the house when my boy Quest Ion called in with his potna NoVeto. We played a song they did together, philosophized and then he blessed us with a spoken word piece over the phone. Juggla Vein rocked the DJ Earl-E produced In Your Eyes for DJJD's Song of the Week, Michael Jackson got very excited during his Storytime and our buddy Mike called in and gave us an impromptu ULR drop right over the phone from London! Big up Mike!!! Listen for a piece of that phone call in a future Unseen Legion Radio promo spot. And until then, listen to another great episode of Unseen Legion Radio.

I enjoy making the standards fun. Making these packets allow me to be creative. I like to incorporate hands on activities, written as well as visual stimulation.

The Internet is a tremendous asset to men that, like me, would otherwise have limited access to world-class clothing. That said, shopping online requires care.
Take, please, the chambray dress shirts I received the other day. I intended to request two of them in light blue, but I specified a fabric number that was no longer valid when I sent the order in. My shirtmaker sent me a confirmation using the name of a not-what-I-wanted color rather than the fabric number, and I didn't notice that it was wrong. So here I sit with two useless-to-me dark blue shirts with a violet cast.
They are useless because in classic dressing the dress shirt is lighter in color than the jacket and necktie it is paired with. That is obviously impractical with these, leaving me nothing to do with them except wear one under a sweater once in a while. I might as well send them directly to charity.
A disappointment like this one is my own fault but whining about it helps me feel better. Order with care.

Order With Care
19 comments:

Luckily, my mistake was not quite so bad. I did not realize on my shirtmakers website when you leave the screen to add more cloth, certain items revert back to the default. Thus, instead of the monogram being in the label area, it's on the cuff. The absolute last place I want it. Of course, I didn't find out until the shirt arrived. I rechecked my order on the website and, sure enough, it said "cuff".

I think size is a real issue too. I see lots of shoes online, but sizes are so different. It's tough with shoes in particular.

It's a shame you won't get use of the shirts Will, they look good. I'd agree that with a tie they would look a little odd.
Upside though; there's little better than having the best to amble around at home.
Upside II; they haven't a monogram on the CUFF! Turling, it's a simple job to have a cuff turned. Hopefully it could recover something for you.
The shocking thing here is such a thing was even an option.
Pleasant weekend all. - July 31, 2009 at 8:34:00 AM PDT

So, Will, One day you should decide not to dress in the classic style and put on a Navy or Gray suit with one of those shirts and ties and see the comments/stares or looks that follow. Maybe they won't be that bad. Or maybe they will be good. Step out of the box and be daring!

I wound up with a too blue linen shirt once. I wear it with cream trousers and a spectator loafer. But mostly in tropical climes.
Turling, who's your shirtmaker, if I may ask? - July 31, 2009 at 10:09:00 AM PDT
- The People's Business said...
I take it they were made to order / made to measure so no return is possible?
- July 31, 2009 at 10:25:00 AM PDT

Great combination easy. Sadly, these are dress shirts.
I already have several dark blue linen casual shirts.
Besides, the color is really not my taste. - July 31, 2009 at 10:29:00 AM PDT
- The Eccentric Orange Gentleman said...
Ask Andy Trad Thift Exchange is always willing to take them of your hands and supply them to young university students.
I'm not a fan of the dark blue and the same thing happened to me. I really couldn't do without that money. I had to do a fire sale with 2 of the 6 shirts I ordered and replace them. Thank goodness for the Trad Thrift Exchange. I would have been shy a few shirts without the exchange. - July 31, 2009 at 12:03:00 PM PDT
- Turling said...
I use Hemrajani for my shirts. It appears to be a quirk in their system, as I don't know if it's intentional or not, as I haven't asked. Once you have created all of your particulars for a style, you can save it to use in future orders, which is actually quite convenient. However, one thing it does not save is the monogram placement. It defaults to "cuff", because it starts with the letter "c", I believe. Good thing you don't get trousers monogrammed, I would hate to see what area would start there.
Now, that I know about it, it's not a big deal; however, I do have a couple of shirts that are relegated to duty beneath a sweater.
Although, I may look into what Mr. Brown recommended. - July 31, 2009 at 12:10:00 PM PDT
- Bob said...
It is certainly a ghastly kind of a dark blue Will. For the sake of economy I suggest you could do worse than to use them with a linen odd jacket in natural, of course, charcoal trops and a navy and burgundy repp stripe bow. Quite refreshing!
- July 31, 2009 at 12:12:00 PM PDT
- mark said...
I think it would be a quite nice shade with a navy sweater.
- July 31, 2009 at 1:12:00 PM PDT
- Julian said...
While this wouldn't be my first choice of fabric, I think these could look okay with a black or dark navy knit tie.
- July 31, 2009 at 1:14:00 PM PDT
- Terry said...
I have found many vendors "checkout box" to be lacking. I ordered one item and instead received three. The final checkout was so small/vague I did not notice the numbers, and I'm an auditor for goodness sake. I still do not understand how it happened. I was charged nevertheless and not refunded. If I made that mistake, many others must.
- July 31, 2009 at 1:30:00 PM PDT
- Horatio said...
Too bad about the shirts. Since you don't care for the color, just donate them to charity unworn and take their full value as a tax deduction.
Disclaimer: I neither an account nor a tax attorney.
Brian: If possible, try on shoes by the same manufacturer locally and get the size right, then order what you want online.
Tonyp & mark: That shade of blue is too dark to pair with navy. It might be OK with a mid or light gray; it's too casual for charcoal. It would be hideous with black. It would probably work best either on its own or under a sweater. - July 31, 2009 at 2:12:00 PM PDT

Really, anyone could buy bad ready to wear - you have every right to be complaining since it was custom and you waited for somethign you designed yourself. I would be annoyed at every free moment for some time.

They'll look great underneath a black Armani suit - sans tie ;)

What a shame about the colour. Everything else about the shirt is flawless, especially the collar. I wouldn't mind seeing the cuff as well.
- August 2, 2009 at 7:54:00 AM PDT
- Bishop of Briggs said...
I suggest that you wear the shirts with a very dark navy blue suit or blazer and an appropriate dark tie. e.g. plain grenadine or madder silk from Drake's.

"Original Unit to House"
We purchased our house 6 years ago and we're very reluctant about purchasing in the first place because the A/C unit was so old. The current homeowners assured us that they had never had problems with their unit, and boy they were right! We've owned the home 6 years now and only have had minimal yearly maintenance repairs. We've estimated the unit is around 26 years old and it still runs like a champ through our deep South heat waves! Thanks Trane!

I have serviced and installed commercial and residential HVAC equipment for 15 years. I also have Trane equipment in my own home that I have not had any problems with. First, let's be reasonable. There is not a manufacturer out there that does not have a problem once in a while. These machines are man-made. Second, many problems with equipment of all makes and models come from poor installations and mis-applications. Third, many problems arise from poor maintenance practices. Now, here's another point to make. Many people have complained about labor cost, however, Trane offers a 10 year parts and labor warranty but most homeowners do not wish to purchase this even though it's cost is minimal. If your equipment is under 5 years old, it may still be eligible for an extended warranty. As for calling the distributor, they are most likely not going to talk directly with the homeowner but will direct you to contact a contractor. The quality of Trane equipment has been and still is among the best in the industry. The bottom line is that if you have it sized properly, installed properly, and maintained properly you are going to have much better luck with any equipment your buy.

"Marian P. Phoenix AZ"
The unit came brand new installed by a builder in a house that was built for our family in 1996. Never a problem in 10 years that we lived in that house. Reasonable el. bills, not a single service call needed ever, total comfort summer or winter. The only maintenance was replacing the air filter. We had 17 rental properties and on every one of them we had a new a/c unit installed. Couldn't afford Trane, though. Goodman, Tempstar, Carrier, Heil,Amana and some other brands. On every one of them had a problem at least every other year. The Parts were covered, but the labor was outrageous. Got so stressful, that sold off properties one at a time. Currently live in another house with TRANExl1200. Again, very happy! Icy cold air, reasonable bills. Thank you trane! Would recommend very highly for stress -free living! If you can afford it, go with TRANE-through our vast experience with so many other brands nothing compares to these units.

"Nothing stopped my Trane"
I have had two Trane a/c units (3 ton and 5 ton) since my house was built in '91. I replaced a fan motor in the 5 ton a couple years ago but that has been it. I live in Houston which is about the absolute envirnment possible due to the heat and humidity. I am considering replacing the system due to age, inefficiency and a tax credit. My first choice will be Trane!

"XR12 AC with XR80 Gas Furnace"
Live in Las Vegas so cool ac is critical. In 2004 replaced york heat pump and ac with the Trane. Saved 30-40% on heating/cooling costs. Runs quiet and cools/heats the home (1679 Sq Ft) rapidly. I've researched many manufacturers and would agree with the hvac folks: quality installation is key to a well running system regardless of manufacturer chosen. Paid $6,000 and have 10 year parts and labor. Great system + proper install = happy customer.

"XL 1200 2.5 Ton"
The unit was installed back in 1993 with a matching indoor coil. There has not been one service call on the unit. The exterior is still in great shape, the unit is still very quiet, even compared to the new units of today. The xl 1200 has been flawless for us.

I owned a Trane xl 1200 for 18 years now and I have never never never had any problems with it what so ever. I cooled a 2600 square foot home with it in Pittsburgh, Pa.

"Trane Installer"
As a small hvac company Only Trane is offered for product. Having installed over 30 units in 2 years there has been 0 problems and the only complaining is that they don't break down. Trane offers a 10 year warranty and stand behind their products 100%. Trane is top of the line with Lennox running second. Carrier running with amanna and goodman.
Satisfaction Rating:
"Dumb Reviews"
I see that some of these reviewers blame Trane for the shortcomings of the installers, such as one blaming Trane for a clogged drain, and another giving an unfavorable review because a chipmunk chewed into his a-coil. Any reasonable person would know that the quality of the Trane unit has nothing to do with those situations, so apparently we cannot believe some of these ratings as they are not based upon the actual air conditoner, but based upon something else that the rater is mad about.
The opinions expressed in these reviews are the opinions of consumers that submitted reviews to FurnaceCompare.com. They do not necessarily represent the opinions of FurnaceCompare.com.
