Re: MY MARS AND MAYANS THEORY- MUST READ

I am certainly enjoying the images and theories presented here and while I didn't read thoroughly or carefully enough to form my own opinion, I do have one question.
Do we know for a fact that the Mayans finished the calender? We know that they were kind of killed off by an outside force. Perhaps it was unfinished?
Does anyone know/can you provide a link with evidence? I'm a bit curious here.
Well, The mayans focused more on their knowledge than warfare and would've made all efforts to finish this cycle, and like Profanation said, they stopped making it because atthe end of the cycle it would start over again.
The mayans predicted the end of the fourth world would be the end o the cycle, and mankind would be greatly smited.
As an addition to this thread's theory,
But, not to be an indy fan here, but the crystal skulls ARE real. Ther are 3 found today, and one is in the london museum. The skulls consist of silicon, the material that stores information in our computer chips and circuit boards. Could these skulls be a clue to any of the phenomonah relating to this prophecy?

You know, I had been following regularly news stories of crystal skulls for a few years and then found out last year the new Indy movie was about them. I saw some of this movie the other day.... I must say.. I'm amazed that a lot of that stuff made it to the movie.. Some of it has been talked about for a very long time.... .. Need to watch more of that movie though.. Does the indy movie say they are Mayan? That part I've yet to see.

For LLR's sake, it was a good movie, but not as good as the original three.
Now, to the theory. Yes, the crystal skulls are mayan. It is known fact. But how can they be relevant to this theory? Well,
First Off, there are Supposedly 13 Crystal Skulls hidden in the world today. Of that, only I think 4 or 5 have been found, which one rests in the London museum. It is said that when all of them are brought together, their information can be harnessed to save mankind in the future of untold events.
Might these "events" be the Mayan end of the world prophecy?
Well, here's my two cents at it.
The irony of the numbers, stated in my original theory, and tthe irony that the sun the earth AND the center of the universe line up, can be no coincidence, like someone else stated here.
Now, the crystal skulls, made of silicon, like i said earlier, is the material used to store information on electronic chips today. The mayans knew that if they were advanced to their own extent during their time, then the future would be even more advanced, and would most definitely have the resources to comprehend the silicon skulls, if found. They wouldn't have gone through all the work to make the calendar, skulls, and prophecy to jsut sacare the shit out of us "future dwellers". There HAS to be a reason why all of this ties back to the Mayans prophecy. If we find the 8 remaining skulls in four years, possibly, they could tell us a way to survive these aleged catastrophic events. Now, suppsoedly, we have four years to "live", which means four years to find the skulls. this means we'd have to find 2 skulls each year.
The first 5 were hard enough to find in the 80 years since we found the first one. Its said that we would only know this harnessed information once all 13 were brought together. Well, nobody has run a scan for information on ANY skulls to this day. WHAT IF, they had the information leading to the other skulls? Its a possibility often overlooked. But however, scanning each and every skull is expensive and extremely hard to do.
Now you may be asking " What WOULD happen when the earht sun and the center of the universe line up?"
The only prediction That seems most logical to me is:
(click to show/hide)
Halley's Comet.
Yes, you heard me right. It passes by the sun every 75-76 Years.
What if, earth got in the way of the comet? That could result in horrible catastrophe. The Mayans, in their time, Likely saw this beautiful comet every 75-76 years as avid stargazers.
The last appearance was in 1986. I know that this is only 26 years from 2012, but if your were alive in 1986, you'll know that it didn't shine as bright as claimed to be in previous events with halley's comet.
Lets take a look at its structures: The Giotto mission gave planetary scientists their first view of Halley's surface and structure. Although its coma may extend about 100 million kilometres into space, Halley's nucleus is relatively small (barely 15 kilometres long, 8 kilometres wide and 8 kilometres thick) and roughly peanut-shaped. Its mass is extremely low; roughly 2.2×1014 kg. Its average density is about 0.6 g/cm³, indicating that it is very loosely constructed. Its albedo is about 4 percent, meaning that only 4 percent of the sunlight hitting it is reflected; about what one would expect for coal. Thus, despite appearing brilliant white to observers on Earth, Halley's comet is in fact pitch black. Its nucleus has an albedo only of 0.03, darker than coal. As it approaches the inner Solar System, the Sun warms it, causing its surface to sublimate (change directly from a solid to a gas), and jets of volatile material to burst from its black surface. The nucleus rotates every 52 hours, and its day side is far more active than its night side. The gases ejected from the nucleus are 80 percent water vapour, 17 percent carbon monoxide and 3–4 percent carbon dioxide with traces of hydrocarbons.
The perfect material for new life. The Mayans stated that once the world ended, a new dawn of era shall begin. These are the PERFECT materials to start unheard of lifeforms on Earth. Scientists still question that we possibly even came from materials on the asteroid that wiped out dinosaurs!
Now, you may be thinking how it could even hit earth if its only bween 26 years. The planets CAN interfere withs its course. In the prediction by Edmond Halley, it was supposed to p[ass by in 1758. During its course by Jupiter, The gravity knocked it off course know making it 618 days later than the original predictions.
Few of us realize that this simple modification by Jupiter and saturn in 1758-59 can multiply and escalate or even minimize its returning wait by a longshot. The results in 1986 weren't so "lovely" as you could barely see any of it. This was the first of the comet's sightings to be like that. Its course could have been changed to a collapsing extent, making the return WAY shorter in the future. Believe it or jnot, Halley's comet's path DOES pass by/around the location of the earth given in the prophecy, in the line-up of the center of the universe with the sun. Due to Halley's highly eccentric orbit, it has one of the highest velocities relative to the Earth in the solar system. The 1910 passage was at a relative velocity of 70.56 km/s (157,800 MPH).
The mayans must have knewn that when it passed by saturn and jupiter in 1758-59, that those planets would change its course forever, therefore, predicting it would crash into the earth in 2012.
That is the only explanation I can think of, given the information humans know today. I know that this was a big add-on to my theory, but all of you who actually read it, I appreciate it.

The End of the world Month takes place in December,2012. December is 4 months after August. August is the beginning of the Calendar 26,000 BCE, and December is the END of the Calender in 2012 AD, in DECEMBER. Which is the end of the FOURTH World Cycle. Four World Cycles, Four Months between August and December. Notice some similarities? Thats Scary.
Eh what? How is it scary? I really don't follow.

Good Lord its been almost a month! I've not given up on this topic yet, I'll get to it all eventually.. Just got a lot going on.
I'll go into detail in the lounge soon
I'm going to try to tie together some things I've stumbled across lately... Most of this could be utter rubbish but it still might be a good read. So lets get started..
Quetzalcoatl: Winged God - Feather Serpent
His pyramid was the Pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacan
his Pyramid info
One entity played key roles as creator in Atlantis, Egypt, Sumer, India among other myths about creation. In Mesoamerica and Peru he was known as Quetzacoatl, among other roles he played.
Quetzalcoatl ("feathered snake") is the Aztec name for the Feathered-Serpent deity of ancient Mesoamerica, one of the main gods of many Mexican and northern Central American civilizations.
You can read the full description and history of Quetzalcoatl
Now He was responsible for teaching many people how to live at that time. Its also thought he was a
Hindu Priest
. Click that to get more info. As odd as this sounds.. it gets odder.. Quetzalcoatl seems to be a reptile, if any one knows anything about that nutty idea that if aliens exist some are probably good and some aliens are bad.. And for some reason people think that the bad aliens are a race of reptiles. Kinda odd that this guy (who appeared out of the sky) looked reptilian to these people. Now the Hindu part of it.. In Hindu belief, there was a great war in the sky (heavens.. that doesn't mean heaven like we know.. heavens would imply the area above the earth.. space.) and that people came down and started their culture. I'm relating these 2 things because....
*warning this is odd and contains high levels of cheese and or bologna*
Mars Civilization:Evidence of Hindu civilization
big picture
What appears to be an ancient Hindu Swastika is visible amongst the structures; for a close-up view please use the following web
Ok now lets through something else in there.. Crop circles.. Now I've seen a huge amount of bogus crop circles. They happen even here in Tennessee. Now just about every time someone finds foot prints, broken crops and a board, beer bottles and even drunk rednecks that boast about "yah we did it! lol!" But some.. specifically those recent ones found in Europe are just too odd.. In the last 2 months there has been something like 10 crop circles that cannot be explained. For one.. it rained that night and that morning. When the circle was found the owner of the farm went to the area and left a very visible path of mud all the way there. There were no foot prints ever found around the crop circle other than the owners when he first came to the area. Also the crops were bent over in such a way it seemed that all of them had been microwaved to the point where they were limp. Very odd things.. also... the message.. Lets take a look..
Barbury Castle barley crop formation near Wroughton, Wiltshire, U. K.,
reported June 1, 2008, 300 feet in diameter. Aerial image © 2008 by Lucy Pringle.
Whats interesting is that this has been deciphered!
Center of June 1, 2008, Barbury Castle barley formation in which the small circle
at the beginning of the ratcheted spiral is the decimal point for the Pi number encoded
in this crop formation out to ten decimal places: 3.14159265358.
Aerial image © 2008 by Lucy Pringle.
You look at the first sector and it's three sectors long.
Then there is a decimal point with that little circle.
The next segment is one sector long.
Then the next segment is four sectors long.
The next segment is one sector long.
The next segment is 5 sectors long. At that point, it was amazing
and I just started following them out. That's when I made up this diagram to send you.
It's clear as a bell that the crop pattern traces out basically as the first 10 digits of Pi, including the decimal point.
The other interesting part was that if Pi carried out 12 numbers is: 3.141592653. Three is the tenth digit. If you're going to publish that long number version of Pi, normally you would round it up, taking into account what the next digit was. The next digit in Pi is 5, so rounding would normally increase the last digit by one. The Mueller diagram shows that the 3 has been rounded up in the ratchet pattern to four, which I thought was very interesting.
But certainly the ratchet design as a way of communicating – for example, you could have taken the circle and divided it up into 50 segments. As a way of communicating numbers, the ratchet design is a pretty powerful method.
This crop pattern happens to be very simple and very obvious in what the circle makers have done. But if that were more tightly packed and had more equivalent segments in it, you could pack a lot of information into that.
And then to tie it all together..

Avebury Manor, near Avebury, Wiltshire, reported July 15, 2008.
Aerial image © 2008 by Nick Nicholson
Comparison of July 15, 2008, Avebury Manor crop formation with projected planetary positions in our solar system on December 21, 2012.
Analysis by "Red Collie" scientist from Australia:
"Avebury Manor of July 15, 2008 reminds us that the Mayan Long Count calendar will end on December 23, 2012: by showing precise orbital locations for all nine planets of our solar system on that date, plus an accurate elliptical orbit for Pluto.
The 5125-year Mayan Long count calendar will end on December 22-23, 2012. Given the long period of time which it represents, all nine planets of our solar system need to be shown in order to mark its end uniquely. Such a clever astronomical diagram was shown at Avebury Manor on July 15, 2008. All nine planets appear there precisely as they will be located in space four and one-half years from now on December 23, 2012, with one exception.
Thus, the outermost planet Pluto has been drawn in this new crop picture somewhat further to the right (or closer to Neptune) than should be the case. Yet Pluto still seems to be located correctly relative to the crossover of its highly elliptical orbit with the orbit of Neptune. Three weeks ago at Secklendorf in Germany, two different dates from the year 2012 were indicated astronomically in a crop picture, one of which (December 21, 2012) was essentially the same as that shown

Just thinking about how someone would go through the trouble to make the crop circles is one thing.. but to then think about hiding REAL messages in them such as dates and the number of Pi is just too much...
seems to be trying to tell us something.. but what is it and has it been here before? Stay tuned... I ain't gave up yet on all this..
OFF topic but in relation to why I've been gone.. Me and my wife are buying a house! so no more doing laundry at 4 am and no more crappy apartment! W00t! also working extra extra hours is the pits... but hey, it can be fun as long as ya keep a good attitude.

Squee! This reminds me of War of the worlds. I mean seriously, has something been here before us? and they might be trying to tell us something about weather, or something that might lead to our downfall that very much lead to whatever is communicating with us.Not to mention celestial species, too. They might be communicating with us to making a bond.
Great news bout the house, btw.

Ahh crap.. your right.. wonder what the deal is with the spokes? Perhaps magnetic waves from the planets? Truly a bazaar thing. And who knows, 2 rednecks with sticks could come out of the wood work and claim to have done it. Time will tell.

Analysis by "Red Collie" scientist from Australia:
"East Kennett of July 7 to 8, 2008, shows 40 days or two Mayan months until a near-total lunar eclipse on August 16, 2008.
There will be a near-total 81% lunar eclipse late in the evening on August 16, 2008 (see HERE or HERE). A new crop picture from East Kennett seems to be reminding us of that event with considerable simplicity:
Graphic overlays on East Kennett, Wiltshire, crop formation reported July 8, 2008,
crop formation by Red Collie, Australian scientist.
Surrounding a standing circle for Earth, we can see forty small symbols in pairs (large-small-large-small) that clearly suggest 2 x 20 = 40 days until a near-total lunar eclipse on August 16, 2008:
Astronomical details of that eclipse are shown below:
The most remarkable feature of this new crop picture is that it chooses to use a time symbolism of "2 x 20 = 40 days" until the lunar eclipse in mid-August. Many other crop pictures over the past few weeks have shown Mayan themes, for example in Germany. Since the Mayans kept 20 days in any month, as opposed to 30 days for most Western calendars, then one implication of this new picture might be that the crop artists follow a Mayan calendar rather than a Western one

Found some interesting stuff today.
The Significance of the Year 2012 Explained
by Richard Lowe
Everyone hears about the different prophecies on how humanity will end. From the Bible predictions of the rapture and the Antichrist, to Nostradamus's prediction of the Planet Comet, people hear theories and see evidence of our civilization coming to an end. However, the most striking of these prophecies lies in the predictions of an ancient, but highly sophisticated Mayan calender. The deciphering and understanding of the calender is whole other story in it's own, so I'll get straight to the point.
The Mayan calender is actually a combination of 3 calenders. The religious calender, the solar calender, and the Long Count. For the sake of this discussion, i wont get into detail about the whole calender and just stick to the Long Count. The Long Count can record any day in history because it is supposedly the measure of days from the beginning of humanity to the end.
The number system used for the Long Count is completely different than our decimal, 10 based number system. Instead, the Mayans used 5 sets of numbers separated with a decimal. A typical Long Count number would look like this:
The first day of the Long Count is labeled 0.0.0.0.1 which is the equivalent to August 11th, 3114 BC. on our current Gregorian Calender. The Long Count calender ends at 18.104.22.168.20 which is the equivalent to December 21, 2012. Now this doesn't necessarily mean that humanity will come to an end on this date, but it is the date when the calender ends.
But who cares what an ancient civilization thinks? They didn't have any of the scientific knowledge, nor did they have any of the technology that we have now. Why should we be worried? Let's look at this date from a scientific point of view.
First of all, every 11 years our Sun goes through what's called a solar cycle (pole shift, magnetic reversal). During the peak time of the cycle, the Sun's magnetic poles switch. The magnetic field of the Sun does a 180. But remember, this is a 180 degree magnetic flip. The physical part of Sun doesn't actually flip. Anyway, during the peak time of this "flip" sunspots and solar flares become more frequent. This is what's called the "solar maximum".
"Solar flares are pieces of the sun which leap into space, discharging radiation and strong electrical currents that travel outward into space. They often fall back to the surface of the Sun. Sometimes, a very strong flare, called a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME), actually leaves the Sun and this deadly mass shoots out from the Sun towards the planets like a bullet. They usually don't hit anything, but they occasionally hit a planet like Earth. Most flares are small, but even a small flares can be dangerous.
In 1989 a flare hit the North American continent and fried electric lines, zapped power grids in the US and Canada, and created large power blackouts. Flares can also effect our moods and physical health. In theory, a large flare impacting the Earth could zap the ionosphere and irradiate the surface, killing every living organism that it touched."
During early 2001, the Sun's solar cycle was completed and the Sun switched magnetic poles, so the Sun is due for another cycle in the year 2012.
Well, who cares if the Sun flips again? it flips every 11 years so why should should the next flip be any different?
The solar cycle of 2012 is more significant than any other for several reasons:
1. During this time the two biggest planets in our solar system, Saturn and Jupiter, will be in line with each other. The gravitational effects of the two planets on the Sun will cause it to wobble during it's pole shift. This can have huge effects on the magnitude of the CME's the Sun will be tossing into space. The Earth regularly gets hit with small CME's and research says that the increased magnitude of these CME's are one of the major causes of global warming, and changes in the ecosystem.
2. Right now the Sun's south magnetic pole is in line with the Earth's north magnetic pole. Since opposites attract, the Sun, along with it's gravitational influence from Saturn and Jupiter, may cause the Earth to switch magnetic poles too! With the magnetic field of the Earth switching in a matter of minutes, there can be huge disruptions in the Earth's geological and ecological system. It can cause mass earthquakes and volcano eruptions all over the world. After it's all done, compasses will point South, the Sun will rise in the West and set in the East. But remember, this is a magnetic switch only.
3. The most far fetched possibility and probably the most catastrophic is the phenomenon called "polar wander". Polar wander is a result of the Earth's outer crust shifting at a rapid rate. The magnetic poles stay put but Antarctica becomes the equator and the tropics become the North Pole. I really don't have to stress why a polar wander could be catastrophic because if you picture a phenomenon like this happening in a matter of minutes, you can understand why. There is evidence of a polar wander occurring before in the distant past due to the fossils of Coral in Greenland and Woolly Mammoth bones found in Central America. Of course, in order for a polar wander to occur, it would take a huge amount of imbalance, like an asteroid collision, in the Earth to trigger it.
4. The final event that will occur on December 21, 2012 will be at 11:12 GMT. It's a phenomenon that the Mayans referred to as the "Sacred Tree" and it happens every 25,800 years. At that time our Sun will line up directly with the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. For thousands of years, our solar system has been hovering around the top of the galactic plane and this galactic alignment could have huge effects on our solar system.
"The ecliptic cross over the Milky Way at a 60 degree angle near the constellation Sagittarius. As such, it forms a cross with the Milky Way, and this cosmic cross was called the Sacred Tree by the ancient Maya. (The cross form was also known as the "crossroads." Amazingly, the center of this cosmic cross, that is right where the ecliptic crosses over the Milky Way is exactly where the December solstice sun will be in A.D. 2012. This alignment occurs only once every 25,800 years."
There is supposedly a black hole in the middle of the Milky Way holding everything together. Our solar system is around the outer edge of the disc. When our solar system lines up with center of the galaxy, we will be at the strongest part of the galaxy's magnetic field where there is maximum gravitation. So, with the Sun's solar cycle being at it's maximum, the alignment of Saturn and Jupiter, and the alignment of the sun with the equator of the Milky Way, this will REALLY cause an increase in the magnitude of the Sun's solar flares. Of course the gravitational complexities will also have an influence on whether or not the Earth will undergo a magnetic pole shift. There is also speculation that the Earth may reverse its rotation since we'll be in the opposite hemisphere of the galaxy!
"According to the Mayas, the center of the Galaxy is the cosmic womb; The place of dead, transformation, regeneration and rebirth. This moment shows the end of their calendar."
There are a lot of questions that will be answered in the year 2012. Although the Mayan calender has a mystery on a specific date, some of the scientific complexities will gradually become observable. Depletion of the ozone, increase in volcanic activity, and changes in weather patterns are all natural results of some of the events explained. However, whether or not the Mayans had some sort of insight into the future will remain a mystery.
Just thought I would share

I loved how not only did this article go along with what I've been saying but it also stated something that I thought from my own observations. Solar Flares have a direct effect on people and animals. I've noticed that on days that flares happen people drive like they have never been behind the wheel before. And boy are people irritable. Birds also fly into cars more!
Lets just hope that nothing happens... although it looks more and more like
will happen.

Helping Sumatran Farmers Respond to Climate Change
The effects of climate change are far-reaching, and farmers around the world are especially sensitive to the impact. Traditional farming strategies may not yield the same results, and farmers now contend with an increasing number of variables that can affect coffee production.
Conservation International's Sumatra program manager Fazrin Rahmadani is witnessing this firsthand. "In the past, a stable climate in Sumatra minimized instances of pests and diseases, helped regulate the rainy season and made it easier to predict fertilization periods for coffee," writes Rahmadani. Today, unexpected changes question tried and true farming methods and introduce new challenges. The coffee berry borer (Hypothenemus hampei), for instance, has begun "expanding to higher altitudes and posing a growing threat to coffee crops."
With the help of our partners at Conservation International, it's our goal to help farmers address these challenges as they arise through our C.A.F.E. Practices program. Helping farmers thrive in the midst of a changing climate is fundamental to our mission statement, and helps to secure the future of the thing we are most passionate about: incredible coffee.
Read Rahmadani's full blog entry here to learn how Starbucks and Conservation International are working together on a pilot approach to helping farmers respond to the effects of climate change without sacrificing the principles of high-quality, climate-friendly coffee production.

Climate change; unspecified "changes"; unspecified "challenges". Does anyone else smell Agenda 21?

Erratum referencing previous post: for "do not depend" replace with "depend".
Sorry... I was distracted. : )

What ever happened to moving to where the weather is more favorable? That's what our ancestors did 10's of thousands of years ago. Seemed to work out ok.

astavisky: Are you saying that all farmers should just move? Because our output of greenhouse gases is destroying the planet, we'll just adapt? And exactly where would those farmers move where they'd be sure to not feel the effects of climate change? I'm talking about direct and indirect effects: extreme weather events, drought, heat waves, heavy downpoors, flooding, tornadoes, new plant diseases & pests, and coastal area flooding caused by sea level rise , storm surge, and tidal effects.

I am boycotting Starbucks because of their unethical support of *** marriage.
I am encouraging everyone I know to boycott.

Rusoleum Vs KrylonI usually have frames powder coated but my next project will require me to spray paint the frame a few times.
What do most of you recommend when it comes time to spray paint your projects ?
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonEveryone will have their own favorite. I like Rustoleum.
I tried being serious, but it was boring.
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonI like Rustoleum. It's thick and coats evenly. But Kyrlon is pretty good too.
At the bike path the average amount of wheels on a bicycle is two. The average amount of wheels on a pair of inline skates is eight. I wonder what Freud would say about this...
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonThe x2 Rustoleum is more user friendly IMO, and much faster curing than the standard formula. Krylon has been reformulated sometime in the past couple of decades and works ok as well.
it's all about the bikes, man. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=50053
I was going to update my sig line, but I'm not seein' anything worth plagiarizing right now.
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonI've been lucky enough to find Dupli-Color and other "automotive" paints at my local Ollie's. I have been getting the small cans for 59 cents and regular cans for $1.99.
Can you say "cheapskate"? But, to answer the thread title....Rustoleum. And Lowes brand Valspar sprays well, too! Three Nails, One Cross, & the Sins of the World!
RRB BO#7 http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=56476
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonThat fork is beautiful peatbog!
I like both brands. Primed and painted an outdoor electrical box with Rusto about 15 yrs. ago and it still looks great. Paint my bikes with Krylon. Dingo is right, some colors are a bit runny. Black is the worst and is tricky to use. The beige/cream color, on the other hand, is almost impossible to mess up. They need to figure out how to put hardener in rattle cans like auto paint has. Rattle can paint just chips too easily. Gary Dripping with Sarcasm...
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonRustoleum all the way, lays down in nice even coats, covers well, drys relatively quick, and looks great.
It doesn't matter what I paid for it, it matters what it's WORTH. I never buy anything I will regret KEEPING.
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonNot this debate again! Stop before it gets out of hand!
I use what's cheapest, I've have every brand of spray paint do well and every brand mess up, sometimes it's the paint, sometimes it's me, experiment and use what you like, your process will not be like everyone else's so results will vary. Like Brett said above, Ollie's sells cheap paint and I too have bought the Duplicolor automotive paint, little cans for .99 cents and bigger cans for $2 (Rocky Mount, NC). I finally got around to using some of the duplicolor on Saturday, it's a metallic dark gray, I painted the alloy wheels on my car, that stuff is AWESOME! Coated evenly, even when I held a little too close and thought it would definitely run. So smooth, great stuff! Fumes are a little more noxious than Krylons and Rustoleums and store brands, but I was outside, so it's all good. I think for bikes that I really care about from now on I'm using the automotive spray paint. Check out my Build-Off bike: ☆ 1936 Off-Roadmaster Klunker ☆
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonI used Dupli-Color's Metalcast paint to do my nephew's MTB frame over the weekend. It came out excellent; I'll have to take some pictures out in the sunlight before I assemble it. The silver basecoat is the closest I've ever seen paint come to looking like raw aluminum. I could see using just that with a clear over it for something. The kid likes yellow, so that's what I went with for a top coat. All I have now are cell phone pics that were taken in the shop under a combination of fluorecent and halogen light. Makes the color in the pictures look greener than it really does. I'll be shooting it with SprayMax clearcoat next week, after the paint has fully cured.
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonWhat? No fans of Wallyworld paint? Cheap is my middle name!

Re: Rusoleum Vs Krylon
I use this stuff all the time and I love it, if you ask around enough and make some calls you'll find out who this paint is made by, probably Krylon or Rustoleum.
A discount outlet closeout/buyout store, similar to Big Lots, but a better variety of changing stock. http://www.olliesbargainoutlet.com/stor ... tores.aspx Check out my Build-Off bike: ☆ 1936 Off-Roadmaster Klunker ☆
Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonPeatbog,
If your skills get those results with a rattle can.......I'm thinking the brand doesn't matter much...I'd love to see what you can do with some rusty water and a rol ler If I wanted a Schwinn, I would have bought a Schwinn!

Re: Rusoleum Vs KrylonValspar, is the last brand that I used and I had good results,liked the way the nozzle applies the paint like a fine mist. Quote- Easy-Spray Technology, top coat anytime,quick drying,no drips "

I am a mom of 4 with 3 high schoolers and I never heard of your website. I am shocked. I asked the webmaster, Carl Scroeder, from the DS Boosters website to advertise Patch.com.
Jessica is a Senior Captain on the girls ice hockey team and we have been doing our own articles and submitting to the local papers. For more of an pdate on the girls you can visit DSBossters.com and look under girls ice hockey. The last game was a huge upset where DS won against #7 in State Medway/Ashland. Police was called for cantakerous Ashland parents, it was a shocker. We actually have a make up game against them Sunday 1230 PM at NEFC in Marlborough! Any questions, I update the Boosters website when I have to, many thanks for today! Janene Goudreault

Apple recently celebrated its 25 billionth App Store download. But anyone who's used the App Store knows it's a complex maze of useful, entertaining and sometimes totally pointless creations.
There's so much variety that deciding what to download can be quite daunting. Luckily, Mobilechoices.co.uk can help! These are our Top 15 apps to keep the whole family busy, whether they're hard at work or play.
Some are free, others you pay for - but if anything's guaranteed, it's that there's an app on this list you can't live without.
Not the cheapest of apps but potentially a smart investment. Quickoffice Pro HD is a powerful document editing suite with a built-in PDF viewer and file manager system that work seamlessly with email attachments and cloud storage. It's a great tool for creating and editing Microsoft Office documents, spreadsheets and presentations on the move. Of course, there are a few limitations but all the essentials are there.
Download the Quickoffice Pro HD app for iPad
If you're a keen note taker in meetings then you're bound to love Noteshelf from independent developer Ramki. It's a real hidden gem in the App Store and could be yours for just a few pounds. It allows you to write notes in numerous colours and formats using smooth and natural handwriting. You can even sketch page layouts or design concepts in detail. If you've already got an iPad it's time to throw out the notepad and pen.
Download the Noteshelf app for iPad
There's nothing like a free app, especially one that's as useful in the office as the brilliant DocScan HD. Perhaps it's not the most exciting concept, but with this app you can "scan in" any document or note - even if it's crumpled and curled. Essentially, it just uses the iPad's lens to photograph your page and save a digital version. But with its added features, like auto-detect and quick-edit controls, it's far more than just a camera.
Download the DocScan HD app for iPad
Without a doubt the least violent game to involve samurai swords, Fruit Ninja is exactly what the name suggests. Swipe your finger around the screen and your blade will slice any apples, oranges or watermelons in its path. You've got to watch out for the occasional bomb, or else it'll be game over before you can say pomegranate. This one's a definite contender for both the most addictive and pointless iPad app around!
Download the Fruit Ninja app for iPad
Anyone who loves playing Scrabble will also love Words With Friends. Beyond a basic grasp of English, all you really need are a couple of buddies to play against. It works in much the same way as the classic game, with each player searching for high-scoring words in their random selection of letters. And with extra features like instant chat and Facebook integration, it's more sociable than ever. Plus, you can have up to 20 games on the go!
Download the Words With Friends app for iPad
The original was downloaded 35 million times, and there's a good chance that Touch Hockey 2 will be every bit as successful. It's a fairly minimal concept but then simplicity is often king when it comes to making a popular app. The game is based on classic arcade air hockey and is equally fun - and frustrating - in 2D top-down view as it is in more realistic 3D. You can play against friends, either sharing the screen or online via Wi-Fi.
Download the Touch Hockey 2 app for iPad
If you're a paying Netflix member, the iPad app is free as part of your subscription, so you might as well download it for unbeatable convenience in TV and movie entertainment. Just like the Netflix website - and apps for other devices - it lets you watch all your favourite films and TV shows, streamed instantly over the internet. You'll obviously need a connection, ideally unlimited broadband with Wi-Fi. That way there's no need to worry about running up extra charges for exceeding a download limit.
Download the Netflix app for iPad
A fantastic free app for anyone who loves discovering new music, Spotify is like your own personalised jukebox that only plays songs it thinks you'll love. Just start with the name of your favourite band, track or album and Spotify will create a custom radio station that streams similar music over the internet. Paying subscribers can also create playlists that can be accessed offline by an iPod or similar music playing device.
Download the Spotify app for iPad
Another one for the music lovers among us, Shazam can instantly solve a problem as old as time itself. We've all had those moments in cool bar or shop when the songs on the stereo are brilliant but we have no idea who the artist is. Or worse still, when you're sure you know - you just can't for the life of you bring it to mind. Shazam will "listen" for a few seconds then use a 3G or Wi-Fi connection to instantly give you the answer.
Download the Shazam app for iPad
The last thing you want when your kids have a hold of the iPad is the risk of them spending your hard-earned cash on digital goods to improve their zoo or feed a virtual pet. Luckily, Memory King is totally free with absolutely no strings attached. It's a basic memory card matching game ideal for kids aged between two and six years. The settings are completely customisable so you can alter themes and difficulty.
Download the Memory King app for iPad
Not an easy one to categorise, the Toca Hair Salon app is more of a virtual barber's shop than a game. There isn't really a winner, and no record of points is kept - just grab the scissors, shampoo and dye then let your creativity run wild. Children will love the strange-looking characters and there's really no limit on the hours they can spend just laughing out loud at their wacky creations.
Download the Toca Hair Salon app for iPad
If your children love animals, they'll no doubt love building a virtual treehouse filled with adorable critters in Dream PetHouse. It follows a similar form to other Zynga games, such as CityVille Hometown, where virtual in-game extras can be bought with your real money in just a few clicks. So make sure your child can be trusted before you let them out of your sight with it. This is another one for younger kids.
Download the Dream PetHouse app for iPad
Dubbed by developer Tapbots as a "Twitter client with personality", the Tweetbot app for iPad is a wonderful tool for anyone hooked on the popular micro-blogging site. It's a full-featured app with a meticulously-crafted interface, as well as customisable sounds and animation. If you've had problems with the official Twitter app, or maybe you just want to try something different, there's lots to love about Tweetbot.
Download the Tweetbot app for iPad
Technically, this one's designed for the iPhone but works just as well on your iPad display. With Clear you create a to-do list in order of priority, with shades of red, yellow and orange creating a "heatmap" of what's most important. It's stylishly minimalistic and very easy to use, but for quite a simple app you can do an awful lot with it. Simply swipe an item to cross it off your list, and slide two tasks apart to insert a new one between them.
Download the Clear app for iPad
Do you often struggle to find a Wi-Fi hotspot? Spend hours commuting by train or bus without a 3G signal? Offline Pages Pro could be for you if your iPad is frequently disconnected from the web - maybe you have the Wi-Fi only version or the 3G reception is poor in your area. It lets you download web pages while connected and then access them later offline. You can even set it to automatically download each day, so you always have the latest headlines to read on your commute.

text: My in-laws invited me to come see one of the family boys at Patuxent play Douglass of PG. Patuxent lost the game on a field goal with about three seconds left in the game but this had to be one of the best or most thrilling high school football games I have ever seen or it was the most entertaining game I must have seen in years. It's a darn shame that one team has to lose. They were two warriors going at it back and forth and forth and back. They traded good play after good play after good play. Patuxent had to convert several 4th and long downs to sustain drives and they succeeded. #11 Travez Lee and #9 Rafiq Douglass of Patuxent were pure beasts. Patuxent actually scored the go ahead TD and extra point with only a minute and some change on the clock. Patuxent kicked off and the Douglass returner slipped and went down on about the 10-yard line. But Douglass drove down the field using sideline plays to stop the clock. They got the ball down to about the 25-yard line with 3-seconds in the game and did something I just haven't heard from a PG County team. They attempted a field goal kick. And they made it. Final score 29 - 27. My third or fouth generation cousin and other teammates cried their eyes out but there was no shame in how competitive they were. Patuxent had nothing to be ashamed of in losing to this good Douglass team. They both played well and it was well worth the price of admission.

Ronald Ross walked out of prison last week after serving six years for a crime he didn't commit. While there's cause for celebration that an innocent man was set free, justice was not served.
An Oakland police detective, now retired, conducted an inept investigation. An Alameda County deputy district attorney, still on the job, blindly prosecuted the wrong man. Three people who testified at trial apparently committed perjury. And someone has gotten away with attempted murder.
A lot of people have a lot of explaining to do.
But first, let's admire Ross' ability to look forward. He has every reason to be angry at the people and the system that led to his 25-year-to-life sentence. If not for the
Yet Ross, 51, says he holds no grudges. "The first year and a half, I was mad until I realized that God do things for a reason," Ross said. "It was just something that happened."
To be sure, Ross was no angel. He frequently used drugs before he was sent to prison. "I'm a whole lot better now because I had time to think about things," he said. "I'm trying to keep my nose clean. A lot of people I had seen before I went to prison are still doing the same activity. I can't go back to that. No way. No more."
How many of us, having
Which brings us to the next issue: How did this happen?
The detective, then-Sgt. Steven Lovell, was simply lazy. The shooting victim said three people knocked on his door and that one of them shot him. The victim identified one of the men, yet Lovell never pursued the lead.
Instead he placed pictures of Ross, whose mother happened to live in the neighborhood 10 years earlier, and five other men in a photo lineup showed to the victim as he lay in a hospital bed with a morphine drip. The victim identified another man, but Lovell urged him to look again. It was then that he picked out Ross.
From there, things snowballed. Lovell and prosecutor Kevin Wong seemingly lost any critical thinking as they went after Ross. We now know witnesses lied in court. There were plenty of warning signs at the time. Closing a case and securing a conviction took precedent over truth and justice.
Police Chief Howard Jordan and District Attorney Nancy O'Malley must explain what went wrong in their offices, and what steps have been taken to ensure it never happens again. Meanwhile, witnesses should be charged with perjury and the actual gunman must be prosecuted.
This case isn't over. But at least Ross has his freedom back. We wish him well.

IPC Trading Comms 20/20 Blog
If you've been around the world of institutional trading for any period of time you've certainly witnessed many changes relating to the use of technology to assist with trading automation. Everyone has these stories, and mine starts back in the early 1990's on the equities side where everything was a phone call. From placing the order, to getting fill information, to providing account allocations for the block trade. Since that time we've witnessed major technology and process improvements across the trade cycle such that when looking in the rear-view mirror the past is just a blur.

The recent drop in China's GDP growth has raised concerns with many who hoped the country's economy would underpin a global financial recovery. For China's government, the speed at which it becomes a 'new entrant' in the global financial markets needs to be balanced by its necessity to protect the region's economic stability.

Attorney Asks About Eyewitness, 'Unknown Fluid,' and Medical Records in Patterson Crash
The defense attorney for the Royal Oak man charged in the crash involving Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson files motions in Rochester Hills District Court.
A Royal Oak man charged with three misdemeanor counts in an August crash involving Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson was in a Rochester Hills courtroom today for a pre-trial hearing before Judge Lisa Asadoorian.
Anthony Prainito, 31, the driver of the Volkswagen Passat that Patterson's Chrysler 300 crashed into at the intersection of Walton and Opdyke, is charged with three counts of moving violation causing serious impairment of a bodily function in the crash. He pleaded not guilty.
Prainito's defense attorney, Joshua Nucian, brought a stack of motions to court today and more may be coming as he awaits responses on Freedom of Information Act requests along with an accident investigator's inspection of the vehicles involved in the crash and the black box of the Chrysler 300.
Nucian also filed a motion for the Auburn Hills Police to produce a black bag found on the floorboard of the vehicle driven by Patterson's longtime driver James Cram. Of particular interest, Nucian said, is a glass bottle with an unknown fluid that he said was in the black bag. Nucian said he would like to have the fluid tested.
According to an Auburn Hills Police Report on the crash, a black bag containing several items was found on the floor of the driver's seat. Among the items in the bag: an umbrella, cash, keys, glasses and the glass bottle.
Among Nucian's other motions Tuesday was a request for a bill of particulars advising he and Prainito of the actual offenses being charged, as well as the circumstances surrounding the offenses. The defense attorney said he has not been given a notice of the type of moving violation nor the particulars of any impairment of a bodily function; medical documents on Patterson, Cram and Raymond Recchia (Prainito's passenger) have been "few and far between," according to Nucian.
"Without the status of injuries known, I cannot prepare a defense for my client," Nucian said.
The defense attorney also filed a motion to compel the discovery of 911 caller identifications on Aug. 10, the date of the crash.
"I do have 911 call audios, I do not have caller IDs," said Nucian. "On one call there is a gentleman who specifically says, 'I saw the accident happen on Walton,' and (the dispatcher) says 'The accident at Opdyke and Walton?' He says, 'Yes,' and they hang up on him."
Nucian said he wants one of his investigators to interview that person, who he said is perhaps one of the only eyewitnesses to the accident. To date, there have been no eyewitnesses reported by the police, Nucian said.
More motions may come once Nucian has inspections and tests completed and once he receives FOIA requests to obtain text messages from responding officers.
Prainito will be back in district court at 1:15 p.m. Oct. 25, when Asadoorian will give rulings on today's motions.
Correction Prainito will be back in court on Oct. 25.

no one is above the law-someone was at fault & its well known the black 300 was traveling at 54 mph in a 45 mph zone........maybe the real driver at fault has not been charged yet??? keep asking questions mate.

NO we ALL don't know it was doing 54, not by a law enforcement entity, or court of law.
The cameras that snap pic's of cars lic. plates, as that car runes a yellow or red light, can be over turn, with so many loop holes.
Glass bottle? hmmm means what............. nerve medicine, and oinmenrt, if what I think "the dike" is hmmmming about, most of that Liquid, is now in plastic bottles, especially small bottles enough, to fit in a Black bag, must be a carry all type bag, did not say a work out clothing bag, does it. All it means the def atty is wanting some clarification. Was if cooking oil, some extra virgin oil, beside since no driver was given a drunk driving ticket, the passenger most certainly can carry what ever, as long as it is not open, and on the person same with a gun, I would think, (don't know) since the driver for Brooks, was ex cop, he would have the job cause he has a permit for concealed . Don't plant deception......... let the facts come out, that is why the atty. has done the basics, with motions.
I C. remember your statement, the next time I am behind you, see you talking or texting, or putting on lip stick.......... brushing your hair while driving....... or shaving.

Yes they (reports) leave a lot to be desired, considering the amount of time they close a rd. down. I see my cities pd reports every month, hard to under stand, one word descb. the whole call. To get the whole report, technicalities, you have to spend the bucks and file the freedom of info act. cities way to make more money you pay the wages of the PD and clerks, not you pay big bucks to see the real stuff..... in a way it is to keep sanity in the Hood on every little issue. if your interested belly up.

If you are on one side of a ditch full of burning debris and a zombie is on the other, will it attempt to cross the ditch to get at you?
well a lot of people would say no zombies don't fear fire even though Romero's original zombies did. most people seam to believe because a zombie only has the most primitive of cognitive function and no sense of pain or self preservation that to get to you it would walk right into the fire. perhaps even because zombies are drawn to any noise and light they may just walk into the fire hopping to find food. you know kinda like moths who are drawn to flames.
i guess it all comes down to how much of the brain is reanimated. all animals in nature fear fire which is why if your ever lost in predator country you keep a fire going no mater how hot it is. to keep large predators away. so if they are operating on instinct like animals fire might scare them. of course its also going to draw in others from the surrounding area as far as the light from it will travel. so its kinda a double edge sword.
my thoughts on what would happen if a zombie was confronted with fire, especially a large fire like what your talking about, a zombie might become mesmerized by the flame. since its natural urge is to seek out light it probably won't be able to keep its eyes off of it. (unless of course it spots nearby food) since zombies have little to no reservation mechanism it will keep staring at the light regardless of damage to its eyes and if gets close enough the fire may overwhelm its ocular proses (most of the human brain is used for processioning sight) disorienting a zombie which if you were to say wave a flaming torch in its face like Ben did in night of the living dead, that might explain their fear of fire despite the fact that they lack cognitive function to scared of something.
bottom line no one knows until the dead start to rise and we can actually study one. but using a wall of fire to stop a zombie is generally not a good idea despite what some people may say. worst case scenario you have flaming zombies coming after you for how ever long their body's can survive being burned,(a discussion for another time) and best case you keep them at bay for how ever long the fire holds out while the light attracts every neighboring zombie for miles. it requires large amounts of fuel you can use for something else, fire is notoriously hard to start and keep feed. and it could easily get out of control and do more harm then good destroying whole areas.
so using fire as a barrier against zombies, not a good idea unless you have no other option and an easy means of creating one, or if one is already available. hope this helped and if you would like more discussions on zombie topics check out my you tube channel REDEADTHEUNDEAD© for videos on zombie survival tactics, gear review and weapons testing against human skull analogs.
and as always;
"stay alive, because the dead won't stay dead on their own"©
yes, why wouldent they
i think it all depends on the type of zombies you are dealing with.

The following issues occurred on my Galaxy S I9000:
- Gas Price icon not present in landscape mode (as shown before)
- I've encountered the blocked text once. Restarting the app helped.
- Sometimes the app just goes black. It's usually after pressing a button (report or menu). The routing seems to continue in the back since there's still voice output but nothing on screen. Main menu can be opened via hardware button and is also shown but I can't exit the app or do anything else.
- I've had a weird case of the app crashing when trying to navigate to an address with a house number. Navigating to normal street names worked, also no problem with favorite. I can supply the address, if needed.
- Sometimes the app doesn't close. I press the return button and select Exit but the app remains in background (the icon in the notification bar still shows). I have to start Waze again and then hope for a proper quitting. It might be related to turning the phone sideways while the app is quitting. Maybe that somehow interrupts the quitting-process.
- Don't know if this is beta related or not: I had a routed planned but took another road that was not yet recorded. The road went fairly parallel to the already existing one so I could always see it. While I was paving the new road, the existing one started showing a delay and the average speed would go down the longer I was not on that road. I don't think this should happen. It seems Waze thought I was on the road (since the route was still showing) but I wasn't and this lead to showing the delay.
Crash logs and logs have been submitted. Thanks for your dev efforts!

Passing of Lynda Pracht
Dear Friends of W/NP,
Lynda passed away Wednesday morning, and our deepest thoughts and prayers go out to her family. Funeral arrangements are pending and will be available soon. She will be dearly missed by many.
Lynda Pracht took the Learning Center Program to the next level, she touched the hearts and lives of Nicaraguan women though her development of the "Chica Nica" doll dress project. The magnitude of her influence is hard to fully comprehend. Lynda coordinated the recording and gathering of over 2,000 sewing machines sent from Wisconsin to Nicaragua, she sold 478 dresses in 2012 alone, and her dedication is overwhelming when looking at her Lynda's 2012 Chica Nica Display Schedule
Simply a stellar example of how one person's passion and dedication can make extraordinary things happen. - Amy

WASHINGTON -- Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said the stock market reaction to the large federal budget cuts slated for March 1 will determine how much they affect economic growth.
The $85 billion in cuts this fiscal year, part of a nearly $1.2-trillion spending reduction over the next decade, will have a negative effect, he told CNBC on Friday.
And he believes the White House and Congress will not come together to prevent them.

"I think the odds of it occurring are very high," Greenspan said of the cuts, known as sequestration. "The effect is not going to be horrendous, but it's going to be marked."
Quiz: How much do you know about looming federal budget cuts?
But if the stock market can weather the initial hit from spending reductions, the "effect will be rather minor," he predicted.
Stock prices are not only a leading indicator of economic activity, they also are believed to help add to growth through the "wealth effect," the theory that rising portfolio values lead investors to feel more comfortable spending money.
The Dow Jones industrial average is up nearly 7% so far this year despite concerns about the looming federal spending cuts. It's unclear how the market will react if the cuts take place.
Economists have estimated that the cuts would reduce already weak economic growth by about half a percentage point this year.
Greenspan was known as "the Oracle" during his more than 18 years as Fed chairman, which ended in 2006. But his reputation took a major hit because he did not foresee the collapse of the housing market, which led to the Great Recession and financial crisis.
Greenspan said recent weekly economic data show 2013 is starting off "reasonably well." But he is worried about Washington's ability to deal with the nation's rising debt.
"This is a wholly unsustainable type of economic series of events that are playing out," he said, noting the rising costs of entitlement programs related to the retirement of baby boomers.
"The low-hanging fruit is gone," Greenspan said. "To get the budget deficit down will require some very unpopular actions."

As one might already know, Japanese Game Boys came with manual marked with revision number. I ran into "Rev. 5" (http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/OTYwWDEyODA=/$(KGrHqFHJDkE-NtEMEnkBPpT641BLw~~60_12.JPG) most of the time and only twice - into "Rev. 3" (http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn89/sktuemvie/ZEB12/DSC00395.jpg)
Does anyone know if there is any difference between consoles themself in a releases with different revisions and if it's real to find "Rev.1" (or whatever should be written on the manual of the very first revision like it was on April 1989)?

Hotel was simple, just to my liking. 2nd time staying here. A little cosy but just nice for couple. Bell boy was wonderful but receptionist on the cashier was quite rude. Though the cashier sign was displayed, but human tend to be meticulous at times and missed it. So i missed it. And the cashier simply said " another side"... More

When it comes to potty training, you and your child are a team. Pull-Ups is there to help make potty training a victory for both of you and add a splash of fun while you're at it. Whether your child is just starting out, has hit a setback, or is sailing through the process, Pull-Ups offers a range of customized solutions (and Disney pals!) for all children.
Not sure if your daughter is ready for Pull-Ups Learning Designs? Every child learns at her own pace, but most experts agree that if your daughter is showing two of the following three signs of readiness, it's time to make the shift from diapers to Pull-Ups:
1. She can stay dry for more than two hours or is dry after a nap
2. She is uncomfortable with wet, soiled diapers and wants them changed immediately
3. She can indicate either verbally or nonverbally that she has to go
Grab your child's interest with colorful Disney characters, exclusive to Pull-Ups. Charming characters like Minnie and Cinderella put a friendly, familiar face on the learning process to make potty training less intimidating and more like a fun activity that you can achieve together.
And by fading when the training pants are wet, the graphics become a visual aid to help encourage kids to stay dry.
Unlike bulky diapers, Pull Ups Learning Designs look and feel like real underwear, with a flexible waistband and unique, stretchy sides that open easily, so parents can make quick potty checks.
For maximum absorbency and leak protection, Pull-Ups Learning Designs are specially designed for girls with extra coverage in areas where they need it most.
