i mean, even as a very young kid, i always knew santa wasn't real, there was some excitement because of what he represented (x-mas around the corner, gifts, etc.) but i knew "santa" wasn't real, and all my friends knew too
i have always wondered about other kids and if their parents really feed into them believeing in something that will only crush their little hearts when they find out it isn't real...it's like saying "when you turn 6 we're going to disneyworld" and you have your heart set on it and and then, "oh, well that was just something we said to get you excited but we're not really going" :-( what's the point?
I get the whole "magical innocense" thing but to me this is just confusing a kid, i knew of a kid who almost got kidnapped by a "santa" when he told him the was going to give him a ride in his sleigh! i always told my kids - the story of santa is beautiful but don't trust a guy at the mall who is dressed up in a red suit!
comments? thoughts? i am just a bitter old scrooge??!??

You can use T-Nuts they fit and work well....
I use that aluminum from Lowes with 10-32 bolts and nothing has slipped yet. I dropped my commander one day and the bolts held fine even when the dashboard brokes I had made out of wood as a prototype.
The slide Trax nuts that came with the commander are Brass.
Perfect-o. Nice job. Looks like you used a drill press or your better at hitting the center than I am. I think the 1/4-20's pulled because I was putting a side load on them as well as pulling. The ones that pulled were the ones holding the Fishing Buddy bracket I fashioned.
I do echo David's comment on why not be able to get them from W.S. without paying an arm or a leg. The last time I looked they were 4 for $20.00 and thats just is a bit greedy.
I only use a hand drill and a tap made like a screw driver. I cut the strips 1" long Then you draw a pencil line from corner. I use a center punch and make a dent right where the lines cross. Drill your hole and use the tap. Then it's perfectly in the center. :)
Then round the corners with a file, grinder or what ever. It pretty simple and low tech for tools. Most anyone should be able to do it.
I would prefer to use the stainless like Jeremy has, and you can go to the metal dealer and buy the stock. If you use stainless get some oil and use it when drilling and especially using the tap. WS are made from a bass or bronze which would both be tougher than aluminum. I have yet to have an issue with these anchors pulling out. Remember the entire trax is screwed down to a plastic kayak. LOL There has to be a limit to the amount of stress you apply to it just for that reason.

SOURCE Accelerated Rehabilitation Centers
CHICAGO, March 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Accelerated Rehabilitation Centers-the largest physical therapist owned and managed practice in the U.S.-is proud to announce that the company has raised $8925 for its chosen holiday charity, the Wounded Warrior Project. All funds were raised from sponsorships and raffles at Accelerated's 4th annual Holiday Party, held last week at Drury Lane in Oak Brook Terrace, IL.
The Wounded Warrior Project is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to "honor and empower wounded warriors" of the United States Armed Forces. The organization serves veterans and service members who have suffered a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound, related to their military service on or after September 11, 2001.
Accelerated employees showed their support of the Wounded Warrior Project by purchasing raffle tickets for various items, such as an iPad, Surface, and MacBook Air, which were donated by Accelerated and available to win at the Holiday Party. In addition, local businesses were offered paid sponsorships of the event. Windstream, Advanced Rehabilitation Systems, and Regency selected the gold sponsorship level; while Kenway Consulting, Proform Technologies, and CDW Healthcare 3D Exhibits donated at the silver sponsorship level.
"Our employees and sponsors have my heartfelt gratitude for their kindness and support in helping to raise awareness and funds for the Wounded Warrior Project," said Eric Warner, CEO, Accelerated Rehabilitation Centers. "The generous commitment of Accelerated employees was nothing short of amazing and Accelerated's donation will go a very long way in helping the organization further its very important mission."
About the Wounded Warrior Project
With advancements in battlefield medicine and body armor, an unprecedented number of service members are now surviving severe wounds or injuries. According to the Wounded Warrior Project, for every U.S. soldier killed in World Wars I and II, there were 1.7 soldiers wounded. In Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, for every U.S. soldier killed, seven are wounded. The Wounded Warrior organization has responded, and provides unique programs to assist these warriors as they recover and transition back to civilian life. For the Wounded Warrior Project, "it's not about the war; it's about the warrior."
About Accelerated Rehabilitation Centers
Chicago-based Accelerated Rehabilitation Centers is a premier provider of a wide array of comprehensive patient services and specialized rehabilitation programs. Since 1989, Accelerated has grown to over 230 outpatient rehabilitation centers in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Missouri, Wisconsin, Michigan and Arizona, becoming the top choice for many professional athletes, large employers, and busy professionals.

Fretboard tapping has earned a bad name in certain sectors of the guitar community. Some players dismiss it as a technique suitable only for perpetrating the worst possible kind of overblown, unmusical histrionics, preferably played through a wall of amps that "go to 11."
In the following video, Guitar World's Paul Riario tries out the new Rocktron Boutique Series Stomp Boxes, including the Third Angel Distortion, Texas Recoiler and Overdrive Dynamic Blues.
Although it hit the YouTubes about a year ago, we thought you'd enjoy hearing this isolated guitar track from Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird."
A few years ago, the editors of Guitar World magazine compiled what we feel is the ultimate guide to the 100 Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time. The list, which has been quoted by countless artists, websites and publications around the world, starts with Richie Sambora's work on Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive" (Number 100) and builds to a truly epic finish with Jimmy Page's solo on "Stairway to Heaven" (Number 1).
To the delight of longtime fans, Dancer and the Moon, the new album by Blackmore's Night, comes with a healthy serving of Ritchie Blackmore's trademark guitar playing. Among the album's highlights is an instrumental track called "Carry On...Jon," which Blackmore wrote as a tribute to his former Deep Purple bandmate Jon Lord, who died in 2012 at age 71.
Blues legend Buddy Guy has announced he'll release a new studio album, Rhythm & Blues, through RCA Records on July 30 — which happens to be his 77th birthday. Best of all, Rhythm & Blues will be an all-too-rare-in-2013 double album, and you can check out the complete track listing below.
Today, GuitarWorld.com presents the exclusive premiere of a new music video by North Carolina's Valient Thorr. The track, "Torn Apart," is from the band's new album, Our Own Masters, which will be released June 18 via Volcom Entertainment.
Marty Favento, who was born and raised in a small town called Koper in Slovenia, started playing guitar at age 10. His father, an accomplished blues guitarist, got him into guitar playing and sent him to a private music school, where he spent five years studying. GuitarWorld.com caught up with Favento to discuss his band Shock Rocket's new album. Lift Off, which is getting some cool buzz in the European metal underground.

Ribeye Steak au Poivre |
Not one to cook the same thing twice (with a few rare exceptions for things like pizzocheri and butternut squash & sage lasagna), Heather of Food for Thought is always creating new recipes & unique dishes. She also ventures into cooking videos on her blog and is a syndicated food columnist for The Gloucester Times. Check out her delicious French-inspired guest post below! Thank you, Marx Foods for a night in a Paris Bistro When Fed Ex placed on my front porch an insulated box full of grass-fed New Zealand rib-eye steaks, I realized just how good it is to be a guest blogger for Marx Foods. The only better thing to be is a non-vegetarian friend of Heather's invited for dinner. The opened box revealed ravishing marbled bricks of angus beef, "Silver Fern" steaks from steer who supposedly have known only open New Zealand fields and blue New Zealand skies. (Silver Fern is a farm cooperative, managing the procuring, processing and marketing for more than 20,000 New Zealand sheep, cattle and deer farmers.) My steaks came from cows who began and ended their lives grazing. (On their blog, Marx Foods makes sure we know that, while the steer lived in the open air, they didn't get cold; the Silver Fern people provide their angus with windbreaks and other structures "for shelter in inclement weather.") Yes, these steaks are all that an animal raised lovingly should be when butchered and sent to market, so it really is acceptable, like many great artisanal foods, to do as little as possible to them. Manipulate not, most people would scream. But, as a guest blogger I wanted to do something; Anthony Bourdain's ever honest-to-blunt-to-crude discourse on brasserie cooking in his Les Halles Cookbook felt like the right French swagger for a steak with such a bucolic provenance. Even though it's grill season, I turned to France for carnal inspiration. This is what Bourdain says about rib eye steaks: The entrecote, or rib eye, and its big bone-in brother, the cote de boeuf, have perhaps the perfect balance of fat, lean, and marbling – the best mix of flavor and texture. Dismayingly, all too many restaurant customers complain that it's "too fatty," as they are just too dumb to appreciate the best steak on the steer. They should probably stick to the leaner but very flavorful sirloin, which is what their dumb asses were probably thinking of when they put in their order. The current nutritional buzz on fat and grass-fed animals is all good news. A Time Magazine Article on the grass-fed revolution in cattle farming makes these claims: Grass is a low-starch, high-protein fibrous food, in contrast to carbohydrate-rich, low-fiber corn and soybeans. When animals are 100% grass-fed, their meat is not only lower in saturated fats but also slightly higher in omega-3 fatty acids, the healthy fats found in salmon and flaxseed, which studies indicate may help prevent heart disease and bolster the immune system. Ground beef and milk from grass-finished cattle also have more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which recent data suggest may help prevent breast cancer, diabetes and other ailments. Moreover, grass-finished meat is higher than grain-finished meat in vitamin A and vitamin E, two antioxidants thought to boost resistance to disease. "Grass-fed meat is beef with benefits," says nutritionist Kate Clancy, author of a recent Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) report. UCS, a Washington-based nonprofit, reviewed scores of studies and concluded that a change from grain-based feedlots back to a purely pasture-based system "would be better for the environment, animals and humans." The fat on these steaks is a health food; I proceeded to prepare them with confidence. So, off I went, Bourdain opened to page 130, "steak au poivre." The three big ingredients here are steak, cognac, pepper, and a good radio show to keep you alive while grinding pepper corns for 15 minutes. You need a lot of pepper. Ok, there's butter is in there, too. New Zealand, welcome to Paris in the 1930's! I lay out my New Zealand beauties, patted them dry, and then clicked on an episode of "This American Life." This was not grocery store steak; this was earth and sky interpreted through flesh. These steaks bled fescue. They were tender like buttercups. The lacy layer of pepper was a forthright compliment to all that richness. The cognac was suave. (I'm not a vegetarian, but I am an extremely picky meat-eater, therefore a rib-eye steak is almost as exotic and rare as truffles and caviar.) Grass and sky a great ribeye make. The classic way to serve Steak au Poivre is with a mound of pommes frittes, that sauce ribboning all. It's so French bistro you can almost hear the plates clinking and the surly waiters' splintering French slang. Call me lazy, or uncommitted, but I served these steaks with frozen french fries, not twice-fried, hand-cut potatoes. Let's just say I didn't want the fries to out-shine the steak, nor did I want to resent the steak for the labor the fries demanded. I recommend buying these steaks for a fabulously special dinner, but be easy on yourself; find fancy, organic frozen french fries. Just make sure you drizzle the sauce over all, or you'll hear it from le serveur. Thank you, Marx Foods; thank you, New Zealand. Anthony Bourdain's Steak au Poivre, from Les Halles Serves 4 Ingredients Instructions Cook the steaks Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Moisten the meat very slightly with the oil, then dredge each of the steaks in the crushed peppercorns to thoroughly coat. Don't be shy with the pepper. Heat the remaining oil in the skillet over high heat. Once the oil is hot, add 2 ounces of the butter. Place the steaks in the pan and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook to desired doneness. Remove the pan from the oven and remove the steaks from the pan to rest. (Bourdain says, "have I told you yet to ALWAYS rest your meat after cooking? I've told you now.") For the sauce Return the skillet to the stovetop and carefully stir in the Cognac. As much fun as it is to create a column of flame as you add flammable material to an incredibly hot pan, it's not really desirable or necessary — especially in a home kitchen. Unless you're a pyromaniac, I recommend carefully adding the Cognac to the still-hot pan off the flame, stirring and scraping with the wooden spoon to get every scrap, every peppercorn, every rumor of flavor clinging to the bottom of the pan. Now place the pan on the flame again and cook it down a bit, by about half. Stir in the veal stock and reduce over medium heat until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Whisk in the remaining butter and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with French fries or sautéed potatoes. * Note on searing: With any recipe that calls for searing meat and then using the pan to make a sauce, be careful to avoid blackening the pan; your sauce will taste burnt. Avoid by adjusting the heat to, say, medium high, so it will still sear the meat but not scorch the pan juices. But stoves and pans vary, so pay attention. _______ Post your recipe or comment here: |

Jan A.R. HOES, French, February 24,2012
Dear Rebecca,
Finally we have found some time to send you a short note to thank you for your assistance in setting up our holidays in Vietnam. We have very much enjoyed your beautiful country. The guides were all willing and capable in explaining things, in very good French, which made things so ugh easier for all of us.
We are glad we had the chance to change our beach time resort during our stay as it was clearly too cold in Hoi An.
We will certainly come back one day and will contact you to make certain we once again have a good time in Vietnam.
Thanks from all 4 and hope to talk to you in the future.
Best regards,
Jan A.R. HOES

Dear Julia,
Thank you for organizing such a well planned trip for us. The Tour Agent Mr Anh was very professional, very good and he is a valuable staff to your company. The driver remained very professional too throughout the trip.
We are all very happy with the holidays and thank you once again.
