Rated 5 out of 5 by grandmadee from Just what I wanted! I was looking for pastry bags for an Easter craft ~ you may have seen them filled with orange treats to make "carrots." Those found locally all had printing or pictures on them. These clear bags were perfect and very sturdy. Kept the treats fresh and no worry about breakage. I'm glad I double ordered!Date published: 2012-04-16

SEMA is all about aftermarket equipment for cars, so Ford chose the man with the ultimate aftermarket equipment on his face to open their booth.
How how how does he keep his beard so glorious and lustrous? We're not sure we'll ever know, but we think it probably has something to do with La Grange.

This award-winning biography of Rama, Dr Frederick Lenz, a pioneering teacher of American Buddhism, meditation, and mindfulness, gives you in-depth insights into spirituality and enlightenment.
"It is the blend of Rama's wisdom and his life journey in teaching groups and individuals across the country that makes Rama: Gaze in My Direction so unique: part travelogue, part spiritual reader, and part biography… Any interested in accounts of Eastern religious thinking and growth will find Rama: Gaze in My Direction filled with unique, perceptive insights."
"I was fascinated, moved, and inspired by this clear and compelling biography of Rama. I found myself very drawn to this true Crazy Wisdom guru who offered so much to his students and who, like all great gurus, also suffered at the hands of those who could not recognize the value of his bodhisattva offerings."
"Born Frederick P. Lenz, this elusive young man leaps off the pages of Liz Lewinson's book, showing that magic and enlightenment are available to everyone, right here, right now. She shares the twists and turns of his remarkable journey with warmth, detail, and openness."
"This book is full of heart and wisdom. It is a clearly written, fascinating story of an extraordinary individual, the lives he affected, and the potential he showed the world for waking up. It was a wonderful read."
"I enjoyed this book immensely! I read it in one sitting. Just couldn't put it down. The Dharma, through Rama's biography, spoke clearly to me."
"Rama: Gaze In My Direction by Liz Lewinson is a passionate, moving, and experiential glimpse into a remarkable teacher who helped his students discover a better life and enlightened awareness while they lived in the everyday world."
"My husband and I knew Rama for a long time as a friend, not a teacher. This book was an excellent read and I learned so much more about Rama's physical and spiritual being and more about his Buddhist history. It's very fast reading, moving and so interesting."

Here is the debut film from my nephew, Orion. It's entitled The Bossy Alien. I love it soooooo much more than Avatar.
This clip was forwarded to me from my sweet Mammy, who in turn received it from one of her friends, saying it was a "video that feels really good to watch."
Perhaps I'm a cynical ol' coot, but I thought this was one of the most horrifying things I had ever seen in my life. Like, it made me feel the way directors of zombie films want me to feel, but never quite achieve. I can promise you, if this ever happens to me in any train station (or, indeed, any place of public transport) I will have a profound and thorough heart attack.

The Florida Supreme Court will hold a hearing June 4 to consider possible disciplinary action against Miami attorney Jack Thompson, including sanctions. The Florida Bar is seeking to disbar Thompson, removing his ability to practice law in the state of Florida.
As we reported on May 20th, Judge Dava Tunis, who presided over Miami attorney Jack Thompson's Bar trial, recently recommended to the Florida Supreme Court that he be found guilty on 27 of 31 charges of professional misconduct. Of the 27 recommendations of guilt, twenty-one are from a suit related to Grand Theft Auto and four are from an attempt by Thompson to have Rockstar's Bully declared a public nuisance.
The next step is for the Florida Supreme Court to rule on Judge Tunis' recommendations, though the Court told us it doesn't issue estimations on when rulings will be handed down.
At the closing of the Bar trial, Thompson had argued he's being unfairly persecuted for his religion:
GamePolitics obtained court transcripts of Thompson's closing argument to the court, in which he said, "I'm simply making the argument, Judge, that my motivations - which I have tried to make clear, maybe to the point of nausea - are religious and that my efforts against the distribution of adult material, pornographic material, violent material, adult rated material to children is violative of the law as well as violative of Scripture."
Thompson also said that disbarring him would not stop these "efforts":
"If I am disbarred, which is the wish of these [Florida Bar]people... I will continue to do what I'm doing on these issues whether they disbar me or not because this is what I was called to do, this is what I was enabled to do more effectively as a lawyer."

DENVER -- NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell held a town hall meeting with Denver Broncos season-ticket holders before Saturday's AFC Divisional Playoff. Goodell did not dictate the tenor of the question and answer session but the fans clearly have heard his message of player safety, since the majority of questions dealt with the topic.
Among the items discussed then, and with a gathering of reporters afterwards:
» The league will seriously look at the abolishment of low blocks on defensive players to avoid season-ending injuries like that to Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing. "That's high on our list," Goodell said.
» The "launching" element of player contact could be completely ruled out after this season. It's such a grey area now that complete elimination, by rule, might be the only way for clarity.
» Though there are no clear answers to preventing head injuries in any sport, but specifically football, Goodell said, legislating the use of the head is the most preventative means. Altering of equipment has shown benefits, but also negative ramifications. Still, the NFL continues to research ways to improve equipment and helmets to better prevent injuries, Goodell said.
» Goodell fired another tempered volley at the NFLPA for not agreeing to HGH testing. Goodell said the players association is concerned about the science. Using Major League Baseball's recent decision to move forward with in-season HGH testing, Goodell said questions about the science of HGH testing are "just not true."
» As for a team being in Los Angeles, Goodell said the league is specifically focused on stadium issues there and developments have made putting a team there more realistic than it's been in years. "Whether that happens in five years, I don't know," Goodell said. "The last thing we want to do is come back to Los Angeles and have it fail."

Plaxico Burress has found his way back on an NFL roster.
NFL.com's Aditi Kinkhabwala and Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday the veteran wide receiver has signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The team later confirmed the news.
As we reported Monday, Burress traveled to Pittsburgh this week to meet and work out with the Steelers, who have depth issues at wide receiver following injuries to Antonio Brown (ankle) and Jerricho Cotchery (ribs).
Burress has been out of football this season after spending 2011 with the New York Jets. A first-round draft pick by the Steelers in 2000, Burress spent nearly two years in prison on a gun charge before his release in June 2011.
While he showed last season he wasn't the same player as during his heyday with the Steelers and New York Giants, Burress remains a capable red-zone threat. The Jets used Burress near the end zone plenty last season, and he answered with eight touchdowns. The Steelers are hoping for similar production down the stretch in 2012.Follow Dan Hanzus on Twitter @danhanzus.

|Winnebago County Sheriff's OfficeNews Media Release
|News Release Number 2011-009
|Information: Hold on Deputy layoffs & addition to Narcotics
|Date: 03/21/2011
|Time: 1600
|Page 1 of 1
Narrative: The Sheriff's Office has been working with the County Board Chairman over the past several months to increase our commitment to narcotics enforcement by adding four officers to our existing drug unit. Budget reduction requirements have made this effort difficult and if patrol layoffs occur we would not be able to re-assign the four officers to narcotics as planned. The County Board Chairman joined this Department in informing the Public Safety and Finance Committees that we are close to meeting budget guidelines therefore we are following through with narcotics increases. Although the commitment to increased narcotics efforts will add to the demands on our budget we are currently on pace to achieve 2.3 million dollars of the 2.6 million dollar reduction required this fiscal year. We have put in place other budget reduction strategies that are aimed at addressing to the extent possible the remaining $300,000. We will closely monitor the remaining 6 months of this fiscal year and adjust when and where possible. The increase in narcotic traffic throughout Winnebago County and Rockford is reflective of such increases in other areas throughout the Midwest and requires action. This agency deeply appreciates the efforts, understanding and support of the County Board Chairman and members of the Winnebago County Board.

Floodwaters in Duluth, MN, broke open the Lake Superior Zoo last night, killing a number of animals. A seal managed to escape and was found on one of the area's many washed-out, sinkhole-ridden roads.
The seal was found by local resident Donald Melton, who went to check on a nearby road closure. In an interview with KARE 11 news, Melton described the encounter with the "pretty relaxed" animal.
I was a little dumbfounded. At first I had to think, "Do we have seals? We don't have seals."…I just wanted to get out and pet him, but I didn't want to mess with a wild animal either. I don't know what the trainers do at the zoo, but I just wanted to keep him safe.
In the context of the many ruined roads, cars, and buildings, it is nice to see that one seal made it out alright.

The Boss is back in the battle for the White House.
"(Political) capital diminishes the more often you do it," Springsteen told The New Yorker in a profile last summer.
But that was before President Obama's lead began to narrow in key "Battleground" states.
After the shortest of retirements, Springsteen will be rocking the vote for President Obama later this week with appearances in two pivotal swing states.
Springsteen and Bill Clinton will appear together in Parma, Ohio, on Thursday, spurring the early vote in the Buckeye State.
Springsteen will then travel to Ames, Iowa, for an appearance at Iowa State University. Early voting is already underway in the Hawkeye State, with surveys showing that it strongly favors the Democrats.
"Springsteen's appearances will be valuable in energizing support and getting the vote efforts in these important swing states," said Obama campaign manager Jim Messina.
The Boss has been on the trail before.
Springsteen drew an estimated 80,000 people to a giant 2004 John Kerry rally in Madison, Wisconsin, helping Kerry eke out a victory in the state. He sang for the less-than-inspiring Democratic nominee in Detroit, St. Paul, Philadelphia and Columbus.
Springsteen was an early Obama supporter in 2008, and joined the candidate for a huge late-campaign Ohio rally.
Obama has clung to a small lead in Ohio and Iowa. Ohio is a must-win for Obama, but also for Mitt Romney. No Republican has even won the White House without carrying Ohio.

"I try to bring 100 percent of the essence of something, the umami to the outside—that is what I'm trying to do." —Masa
Chef Masa apprenticed under the direction of sushi master, Sugiyama Toshiaki, at Tokyo's well-respected Ginza Sushi-ko. The intense training proved invaluable, inspiring his intimate relationship with food and dining as an all-inclusive experience.
Always the dreamer, he followed a boyhood ambition to travel to the U.S. and started a small, casual kitchen serving both traditional Japanese dishes as well as more Americanized staples. His next venture was more true to his heart and training.
Masa named his next project after his mentor; Ginza Sushi-ko opened in Beverly Hills with an omakase menu served at a 9 seat counter. In 2004 he opened his renowned Manhattan restaurants Masa and Bar Masa at the Time Warner Center.
"You'll be transported … to an ethereal realm where chef Masa creates one of the premier dining experiences in the world." —Travel + Leisure Magazine
The sushi counter made of a solid piece of Hinoki is sanded daily to a soft, porous state providing both visual and sensual satisfaction the moment one enters. The branches of seasonal plants are arranged daily to highlight the beautiful imperfections mother nature produces, offering a unique perspective from all angles.
The otherwise simple décor is intentionally sparse to act as a blank canvas on which the food will be allotted space to shine. The courses build on seasonal properties utilized only in their freshest most delicious state. Each dish is composed to ensure that the most basic, innate character of the ingredients persists.
A fundamental respect of the distinctiveness, which is naturally occurring, is observed with each act of slicing, shaving, and sprinkling. The food is prepared quickly, and plated for guests as soon as ready to preserve the idea that each dish is still in a living, being state. In essence, with essence, is essence–Masa is shibui.

The probability of a large earthquake hitting Canterbury continues to decline as the earthquake sequence settles down, says GeoNet. Latest aftershock probabilities show the chance of a magnitude 5.0 to 5.4 aftershock happening in the next year is now at 69 per cent - compared to 71 per cent last month and 82 per cent in January.
There is now a 29 per cent chance of a magnitude 5.5 to 5.9 hitting before November 9, 2013, a 9 per cent possibility of a magnitude 6.0 to 6.4, and a 2 per cent chance of 6.5 to 6.9 aftershock.
There is just a 1 in 100 chance of another magnitude 7.0 or higher like the 7.1 which struck Darfield on September 4, 2010, sparking the Canterbury earthquake sequence.
More information on the sequence of aftershocks is available on the GeoNet website.

TEMPE, Ariz. >> Life is coming full circle for Angels infielder Grant Green through a beautiful series of coincidences.
Green was born in Fullerton and went to Canyon High in Anaheim. Just before he reported to the Oakland A's when he was drafted out of USC in June 2009, Green attended the last of many Angels games as a fan. It happened to be a Bobby Grich T-shirt giveaway night.
Flash forward to October 7, 2013. Green and Angels catcher Hank Conger were participating in a putting contest with children involved with the Make-A-Wish Foundation in Temecula. A handful of Angels employees and alumni also attended the event, including Grich — a second baseman like Green who is one of five players in the Angels' Hall of Fame.
"We exchanged emails," Green recalled. "He hooked me up to a great place to hit in the offseason. He came maybe once or twice every two weeks or so and just watched as I did some live (batting practice) and some front toss. Whenever he needed to give his advice he knew he was more than welcome to.
"It's paid off definitely, for sure."
That makes for a cool story, but what Green really wants is a major-league job. To that end, he's hitting .412 through seven Cactus League games, including a 1-for-3 performance in the Angels' 5-2 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday.
Green's always been able to hit. He batted .280 with 16 RBIs in 40 games with the Angels last season after arriving in a midseason trade with the Oakland A's.
For Green, the key to making the club will be his competence in the field. He can play five positions — second base, shortstop, third base, left field and center. If the Angels end up keeping just one backup infielder on their Opening Day roster, Green can make a strong case with flawless fielding at second, third and short.
At 6-foot-3, Green is on the tall side for a middle infielder and must overcome some of his initial stiffness at shortstop. At third base, some observers have questioned his arm strength. Angels manager Mike Scioscia said that Green will get a look at all three positions in camp.
"He's athletic and in workouts he looks fine," Scioscia said after Green made his debut at shortstop Wednesday against San Francisco.
Scioscia has had less than a year to observe Green but Keith Johnson, the manager of the Angels' Triple-A affiliate in Salt Lake, managed against Green in Single A four years ago and the past two seasons in Triple A.
"The one consistent factor has been his ability to hit," Johnson said. "The thing about Greenie that's always been one of his best attributes is his consistency."
Grich has shown Green that there is always room for improvement. Grich made one observation at a batting cage session last November that's had a lasting impact.
"He said, 'You tend to finish really high,' and that's something the A's really wanted me to do when I was there for some reason," Green said. "He said, 'By doing that you're going to come in and out of the zone really quickly. So let's work on the lower finish. Get through the ball a little bit longer and in doing so the bat barrel will stay through the zone longer.'
"I haven't turned on the ball or had the ball go the other way this hard off the bat as long as I can remember. It felt weird, but the ball sounded better off the bat."
A right-handed hitter, Green has always had above-average gap power to the opposite field; the two deepest balls he hit last season were to right. Armed with a lower follow-through, Green said he's driving the ball farther to both sides of the outfield.
One postscript: Green said he kept the Grich T-shirt from the giveaway night five years ago. He still has it.
"I did not wear it to the batting practice," he said, chuckling.
D-backs handle Richards
Garrett Richards allowed eight hits and five runs in four innings in his second spring start. The right-hander surrendered three doubles and a triple, walked none and struck out three.
Kevin Jepsen, Nick Maronde and Fernando Salas each pitched a scoreless inning of relief.
Albert Pujols had an RBI single, Matt Long went 2 for 4 and Kole Calhoun drew a pair of walks in the loss.
Also …
Angels pitcher Robert Carson and catcher John Hester cleared outright waivers and were outrighted off the 40-man roster to Triple-A Salt Lake.

To anybody using Oracle8i and failsafe,
After implementing 18.104.22.168 patchset 12 on my Windows 2000 adv server failsafe configuration failsafe (and MS Cluster administrator) stopped being able to control the Oracle service (it can stop it but not start it again - saying things like "file not found"!). All the due diligence exercises have been done and I am convinced the patching was no flawed on my part. I suspect a bug in the patch set and Oracle support are indicating that others may be having the same problem. My database runs fine but has had to be removed from failsafe.
So two things:
1 - if you are using failsafe and Oracle8i think very carefully before
applying patch set 12
2 - if you have applied patch set 12 either successfully or unsuccessfully with failsafe I'd love to hear from you so I can either put pressure on Oracle for a fix or share some thoughts on what is going on.

Fancy-Butt Jeans Blamed For Scratching Furniture, Says Nebraska Capitol
Caretakers of the capitol building in Lincoln, Nebraska, have noticed scratches on some of the Statehouse chairs and benches and are blaming "fancy butt jeans" for the blemishes. Chairs and benches around the Capitol are nearly 80 years old, and the wood and leather upholstery are suffering damage, according to Bob Ripley, Capitol administrator.
One of the trending fashions is jewels, buttons, shiny rhinestones, crystals, and basically half a jewelry store sewn into the back pockets of denim jeans.
Between 500 and 600 school children visit the Capitol each day, and Ripley recently told a group that if they are wearing "bedazzle bottom" jeans, they'll have to stand while in the Supreme Court.
Caretakers have had to repair the benches in the court at least a couple of times in the past 12 to 18 months, and the bling-bottomed jeans are to blame.
According to custodians and administrators, it's a fad that can't go away soon enough.

Prep notebook: Legend's Bobby Dalbec picked to USA baseball's national development program
Bobby Dalbec's profile continues to rise nationally.
The Legend senior, who committed to Arizona's defending national champion baseball program in July, is the lone Colorado representative playing with USA Baseball's under-17 national development program. The team, which is training in Cary, N.C., this month, is the first of its kind — and is in the same mold of USA Hockey's widely successful national development program.
Dalbec was selected at the end of June at the USA baseball Junior Olympics, where he also won the home run derby.
"I'm honored to represent Colorado baseball," he said. Read more…

I know I'm making a second post, but this is my first RC car, and it's sick as ****.
I have a series of questions that I want to ask for it.
1. How do I adjust ride height? My Roomate's 1:10 Slash was easy to adjust, how to do it on this?
2. What do I do with this gear thing that my car came with?
3. What bodies fit this car?
4. I know you can upgrade the batteries to get hour long running sessions. What can I do to get that?
5. About the above question. How long will those dual batteries take to charge?
6. How can I make it the same as the Rally VXL? I know I need those Rally Tires, but what else?
7. How do I remove the tires and put them back on?
8. How can I make it go 50mph?
9. How long will these slicks last?
10. Are replacement parts easy to come by?
11. Is the body replaceable?
Sorry for all the questions, but I just want to cover everything. Glad to have some help with this, I love it.
First off...edit your post to remove the starred out word and replace it with another approved word.
If you leave the stars(a word that's blocked)...you will get reprimanded by a moderator.
Now for the questions...
1. The only way to adjust the ride height is by adjusting the shock springs...or the body posts.
2. Shouldn't need to change the gearing unless you plan on running 2 batteries in series.
3. Any body listed for a 1/16 car will fit. As far as Traxxas bodies,the Fiesta,Rally,Boss 302,and the Craftsman truck series body.
4. To get that long of a run time...you'll need to parallel 2 Lipo batteries(which will also increase motor/esc temps when running that long...keep an eye on those.)
5. Depends on the batteries and the charger.
6. Nothing else...that's it.(assuming your KB is the brushless version) If it's brushed...you'll need to swap the motor,motor mount,and esc.
7. If you are talking about removing the tires form the wheels...you'll need to find a way to release the glue. Do a youtube search. there are several videos explaining the options.
8. Series wired nimh batteries...again...watch temps.
9. They should last awhile...mine still have a lot of life in them and I run the mess out of it.
10. Yes they are. Most of the 1/16 Traxxas parts interchange...and are readily available.
11. The Ken Block body is no longer produced. you can find replacements used on ebay from time to time.(I personally have 3 KB bodies so far)
If there's anything else I can do to help...just hit me up.
Here's my current KB stash...

"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
Is there anything else I can do to make it capable of jumping without damage? I was going to buy a Rally VXL body and Dirt Tires so I can have fun in the dirt. I'm just a noob to this.
I found out how to take the wheels off, what I meant was take the wheels off the car.
Also, I read that you can make the car higher off the ground, how? It says to Thread the Shock's preload collars away from the caps will raise the vehicles ride height.
You can only get a small amount of clearance increase by adjusting the stock shocks.
The best thing you can do to increase off road capability is to switch the shocks out to Revo shocks...and install Slash tires on it.
I did this to mine for awhile and it wasn't bad at all off road.
If your KB body is in good shape...I'd definitely recommend getting another body to use for bashing.
They are getting tough to find.
I've actually got a Rally body and a Revo body being sprayed with bedliner tomorrow...just to use as basher bodies.
But this being said...if you were really wanting an off road vehicle...the Ken block probably wasn't your best choice.
A Slash,Revo,or Summit would have probably suited you better.

"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
Pretty sure ALL of the 1/16th scale cars and trucks use the same shocks. The only difference is the on road cars like the Rally cars have internal limiters installed, so you could just take the shocks apart remove the internal limiter and you would have the same thing as Revo shocks.The best thing you can do to increase off road capability is to switch the shocks out to Revo shocks
BlindMan Racing
Rusty - MERV - Pede 4x4-Alias
SPC Lipo Power
True...I was just suggesting getting a set of Revo shocks so that he could easily switch back and forth if he wanted to.
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
I wanted a car that was good on road, but capable of going on an RC track. I thought I could with this, and me and my bud are going to dig out a track across the street in the lot right there. I'll post a pic of it, what should I have in the track?
Swapping the shocks will give you about a 3/4" increase in ground clearance.
Compare my 2 pics above.
The top one sitting on the shelf...is stock.
The bottom one with the Slash tires/wheels...has Revo shocks on it.
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
So what pieces do I need for the shocks to do That?
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
How I had a couple more questions.
Could I put a limit on how high the suspension is allowed to go?
What Tires fit this car?
How can I make the body sit higher? I can't make the posts higher than 8 holes or whatever.
Again, nobody has answered this. How do I make the ride height higher? The book says you have to thread the shocks' preload collars away from the caps.
That's all, please answer me. I drove it for the first time today and noticed some things that bothered me, so I'm trying to get everything covered.
I've answered you twice already...ride height can only be changed by swapping/modifying the shocks.
About 3/4" higher is all you are going to get.
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
Ok...that's talking about by adjusting the shock collar...which is a very minimal change.
We are talking about maybe 1/4" difference from maximum tightness to all the way loose.
You are apparently wanting something for primarily off road use.
I still think a Revo/Summit/Slash would have been a better choice for you than a rally car.
Good thing is...with the platform you have...for just over 4100..you can convert it to a Revo/Summit...or to a Slash for considerably less.

"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
The amount of travel on the rally suspension is limited because it is purpose built for street use. The 1/16 Revo and Summit both have a lot more travel for off road. Traxxas don't make A 1/16 stadium truck like the Jato. Which is the only style truck that I can think of that's built to be for on and off road. The ride height is adjusted by turning the black ring at the top of the spring.
If you are worried about it not being tough enough...
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
it should just make them tough bodies...not really pretty like a custom painted body.
I'm having the entire body sprayed...inside and out.
It will be a little heavier...but for what i'm wanting them for it will be fine.
Plus...it's a "buddy deal" so it's not costing me anything and they were spare bodies(just in case it doesn't work worth a flip,lol)
I didn't get a chance to go by there and pick them up today...hopefully tomorrow.
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
I had a couple more questions.
Which shocks could I put on this car for the ground clearance? Slash 4x4 1:16 or Revo?
Also, are there any Lancia Delta bodies that can fit this car? I've looked around and can't find any.
Slash and the Revo shocks are the same. Just different spring rates.
Either one will work just fine.
I've never seen a Lancia body for a 1/16 Traxxas car.
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
Dang. I love Lancias to death. Anyway, which one would you recommend? And do I need the springs or the actual wishbone suspension rod pieces?
just the complete shock assembly...no other suspension pieces.
In fact...the link I put above to the ebay auction...is a really good price on the 4.
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
All right mate. Glad you're helping me. Glad not to get yelled at for not knowing this kind of stuff.
Also, is it possible to limit how high the wheels will go, and make the body posts higher off the car?
Suspension travel is pretty much limited by the shocks.
And...if you lift the body very much...you will also raise the center of gravity...which will make it roll over easier.
BTW...you were asking about the bedliner on the body...
Here's the Rally body i just had sprayed...
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
Wow, different than I thought. How much would it be to do that?
No idea honestly...it was a 'buddy deal".
He just sprayed 2 bodies for me while he was doing a truck bed.
"Dude,I almost had you"
R.I.P Paul Walker
All right. Well, now it's time to wait for next week. Than I can buy the shocks. Can't buy them this weekend, but next week because of my race this weekend. Also, what's some fun things to do with the RC car?
Rig up a video camera mount and make some videos.

MONDAY, June 28, 2010 (HealthDay News) -- Two new studies suggest there's a connection between parents who smoke and kids who are heavier or misbehave more than other children.
The researchers haven't definitively proven that lighting up puts kids at risk for bad behavior and extra pounds. In fact, it may be impossible to ever prove a cause-and-effect because it's considered unethical to assign some parents to smoke and then see what happens.
Still, the findings "tighten the link" between parents who smoke and physical and mental health problems in their kids, said Dr. Jonathan Winickoff, an associate professor of pediatrics at Massachusetts General Hospital, who co-wrote a commentary accompanying the research.
For decades, doctors have advised pregnant women to avoid smoking for fear that they would harm their unborn children; research has linked smoking in mothers to physical problems in offspring such as low birth weight. If the mother smokes during the first trimester, the effects are worse than in later trimesters, said Neil E. Grunberg, a professor of medical and clinical psychology at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, in Bethesda, Md.
But it hasn't been as clear whether there's a connection between mothers who smoke and other health problems in their kids. And the influence of fathers who smoke -- exposing their kids to secondhand smoke or perhaps affecting sperm at conception -- has also remained a mystery.
In one of the new studies, researchers examined what happened to kids whose fathers smoked but their mothers did not. Researchers from the University of Hong Kong studied 7,924 kids from that region who were born in 1997.
The researchers found that the kids who had fathers who smoked were more likely to be heavier at ages 7 or 11 after the statistics were adjusted so they wouldn't be thrown off by factors such as gender and socioeconomic status.
The study appears in the July print issue of Pediatrics, as does a study linking pregnant mothers who smoke to misbehaving kids. Both were published online June 28.
In that second study, British and Brazilian researchers studied 509 children in Brazil and 6,735 in England. After adjusting their statistics to account for possible confounding factors, they discovered that kids of mothers who smoked while pregnant were more likely to be deemed aggressive and disruptive.
This isn't the first time researchers have come to this conclusion, said Grunberg. And if smoking does cause the problems, the study doesn't say how, he added.
So, what might be the connection between parents who puff cigarettes and kids who misbehave and weigh more than others?
Winickoff, co-author of the commentary, said it's not true that smoking makes people skinnier. Instead, it boosts the weight around their bellies and hips, he explained. One theory is that secondhand smoke could do the same thing to those who are exposed, like the kids of dads who light up.
As for pregnant mothers who smoke, their bodies don't act as filters, he said. Instead, the toxins from smoking affect the fetus.
"Anyone who's been in the delivery room when a mother who smokes cigarettes delivers can attest to the state of the placenta," he explained. "In general, it's withered, discolored. It's very clear that the blood supply to the child is compromised."

Members of Darwin's gay and lesbian community are showcasing their artistic talent and sexuality through an exhibition called "Freedom", at the Fannie Bay old gaol.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Ironically titled, the exhibition requires its audience to walk into individual cells within the high security division of the old gaol, squeezing through the narrow doors to get up close to the bold works.
"I think there's a lovely contrast and it offers us a chance to reflect on the ways we have freedoms and the ways we need to fight more for them," curator Matthew Van Roden said.
Also one of the contributing artists, Matt Van Roden returned to Darwin last year and says he feels right at home in the local gay community.
"It's a wonderful city with a really strong and thriving LGBTQI community and that's what the exhibition is all about, to say 'hey, we're here, we're queer, and we're really happy about that situation'."
His pieces draw on the influence of his religious upbringing, incorporating pages from his childhood bibles.
"My story is that I'm very interested in ancient sacred texts," Matthew said.
"The bible is an interesting collection and if you can fragment all those different stories and questions that people have been asked over thousands of years, then you seem to get something a lot more sophisticated than the overarching narrative that the bible presents today."
"As a political document the bible has been used prolifically to suppress and discourage and discriminate the exploration of sexuality.
"It doesn't necessarily have to be that way so I wanted to re-fragment that political idea and say well you've got to come up with your own questions and come up with your own meaning for existence."
The exhibition is part of the Darwin Pride Festival, which runs until the end of this week.

The European Union this week called out social networking sites and online advertisers, charging them to establish a self-regulatory framework that better respects consumer privacy. The European Commissioner for Consumers, Bulgaria's Meglena Kuneva, says that it's a "last chance" for Internet companies to get their collective act together before the regulators intervene.
What sorts of practices is Kuneva worried about? In a speech given ahead of a major "Consumer Summit" in Brussels, Kuneva refused to name names, but singled out a social network (*cough* Facebook *cough*) that "recently included without warning a clause in their terms and conditions that amounted to users rescinding ownership of all their content in their favor. This is a social network site taking ownership of your personal photo albums. Although regulators did not react, people obviously thought the clause was not fair and the uproar of users and the threat of legal action has led the platform to rethink this clause."
Europe takes data protection seriously, and always has tough rules on the books related to storing and sharing personally identifiable information (PII) such as names, phone numbers, and even IP addresses. But Kuneva recognizes that even without PII, large data sets can be used to identify individuals (just ask AOL or Netflix).
80 percent of those under 18 "believe that their personal information is somehow used without their knowledge and shared with third parties without their agreement," she said. "They are right."
The bottom line is that the "World Wide Web is turning out to be the world 'wild west'" (groan) and Kuneva is ready to play the sheriff. Now that consumers are "in fact paying for services with their personal data and their exposure to ads," she intends to make sure that this new kind of commercial exchange is subject to the "same fairness and transparency standards that are commonly accepted in commercial contracts."
None of this should be seen as anti-advertising, she says; rather, it's about setting the necessary ground rules for privacy, transparency, and data protection to ensure that advertising works on the Web. But if the industry doesn't get serious about this soon, the regulators will start writing rules.
The newly-tough rhetoric echoes the Federal Trade Commission here in the US. The FTC in late 2007 adopted a similar industry self-regulation approach to dealing with behavioral online advertising, but last month warned darkly that "a day of reckoning may be fast approaching."
Those words were spoken by FTC Commissioner Jon Leibowitz, who was quoted by Kuneva in her speech. The message was clear: the US and EU aren't far apart on their current approach, and companies on both sides of the Atlantic had better get serious about data protection and privacy if they want to stave off the regulatory shackles.
"Consumer rights must adapt to technology, not be crushed by it... I want to send a warning signal today that we cannot afford foot dragging in this area," said Kuneva at the end of her talk. "[Regulators] will not shy away from our duties nor wait for a cataclysm to wake us up."

Seagate, the hard drive maker, is redoing its consumer line-up with a new product that should make its mission crystal clear to shoppers. Named Backup Plus, the slim (14.5 millimeters) hard drive moves data from a computer for safe keeping. But it also will pull down photos from Facebook or Flickr too.
The company says the device is pretty. True, and it comes in four colors: black, silver, red and blue.
The company says it is easy to use. Also true. You are presented with a simple screen with three options — Backup, Share (for putting your data up on social networks) and Save (to pull that data back onto the drive.) You can drill down and make it more complex, but you don't need to.
The company also says that set-up can be accomplished in two minutes. Well, the set-up isn't completely intuitive, but you won't go screaming back to the returns counter with the device. Once you've figured out how to start the process, it goes smoothly. The device does what it promises to do and does it well.
It comes with an 18-inch USB 3.0 cable, but also works with a Firewire and Thunderbolt adapter. One of the nicest features of the Seagate drives is what it calls the Universal Storage Module. It is a removable module on the connector end of the drive that can be replaced with a new one when the technology industry comes up with a new kind of connector. That extends the usefulness of the drive by a number of years. (Although, by the time you'll need to do that, a 500-gigabyte drive will be cheaper than the connector, mark my words.)
Backup Plus comes in three sizes; 500 gigabytes for about $119, 750 gigabytes for $129 and 1 terabyte for $139. (Clearly, Seagate is encouraging consumers to buy the largest capacity hard drives with this pricing scheme.)

Antibiotic Resistance Synthesis of Recommendations by Expert Policy Groups
(2001; 163 pages)
(2001; 163 pages)
In the not too distant past, antibiotics could be counted on to treat a bacterial infection. Those days are almost gone, as bacteria have emerged that are resistant to each of the antibiotics currently on the market. Deaths have occurred as a result of untreatable bacterial infections. This trend is expected to continue unless the problem of antibiotic resistance can be curbed. In response to this threat, the World Health Organization (WHO) has worked with many partners, including the Alliance for the Prudent Use of Antibiotics (APUA), to develop the WHO Global Strategy for Containment of Antimicrobial Resistance...

The credibility of beloved cereal character Cap'N Crunch is being called into question after a report said that he has been lying for the past 50 years and he's not even a captain—he's a commander.
Cap'N Crunch has been wearing the same uniform since his debut in 1963, with three yellow stripes on the wrist. Captains have four stripes, but commanders have three, according to the U.S. Navy website.
But Cap'N maintains that he is not a fraud.
Regarding today's rumors... of course I'm a Cap'n! It's the Crunch - not the clothes - that make a man. #PaidMyDues
— Cap'n Crunch (@RealCapnCrunch) June 14, 2013
He and cereal maker Quaker Oats explain that captain is not just a rank; it's also a position. Since Cap'N Crunch runs his ship, the S.S. Guppy, he is the captain of that vessel and there is no disparity, they said.
The scandal escalated Wednesday when a Pentagon official "revealed" that the Cap'N hasn't even served in the U.S. Navy.
"We have no Cap'n Crunch in the personnel records – and we checked," Navy spokesman Lt. Commander Chris Servello told The Wall Street Journal. "We have notified NCIS and we're looking into whether or not he's impersonating a naval officer – and that's a serious offense."
If convicted of the offense, the cartoon character could be dishonorably discharged, and jailed for up to three years.
Can confirm @RealCapnCrunch appears to wear #USNavy commander rank. No record of his service. #CrunchCredibility@HuffPostTaste

Since food writer Charisma Madarang posted the story last week, the faux controversy has ignited a conversation across social media. Many fans of Cap'N Crunch proclaimed his innocence:

The Five Dysfunctions of a Team
The Five Dysfunctions of a Team has become the world's most definitive source on practical information for building teams. The book's impact extends beyond business schools, churches, non-profit organizations, professional sports teams and the military. The Five Dysfunctions of a Team has sold over two million copies and continues to be a fixture on national best-seller lists week after week.
The Concept
The Five Dysfunctions of a Team outlines the root causes of politics and dysfunction on the teams where you work, and the keys to overcoming them. Counter to conventional wisdom, the causes of dysfunction are both identifiable and curable. However, they don't die easily. Making a team functional and cohesive requires levels of courage and discipline that many groups cannot seem to muster.
The ModelDownload PDF
Dysfunction #1: Absence of TrustThe fear of being vulnerable with team members prevents the building of trust within the team.
Dysfunction #2: Fear of ConflictThe desire to preserve artificial harmony stifles the occurrence of productive ideological conflict.
Dysfunction #3: Lack of CommitmentThe lack of clarity or buy-in prevents team members from making decisions they will stick to.
Dysfunction #4: Avoidance of AccountabilityThe need to avoid interpersonal discomfort prevents team members from holding one another accountable.
Dysfunction #5: Inattention to ResultsThe pursuit of individual goals and personal status erodes the focus on collective success.
Characteristics of High Performing Teams
Teams willing to address the five dysfunctions can experience the following benefits. High performing, cohesive teams:
- Are comfortable asking for help, admitting mistakes and limitations and take risks offering feedback
- Tap into one another's skills and experiences
- Avoid wasting time talking about the wrong issues and revisiting the same topics over and over again because of lack of buy-in
- Make higher quality decisions and accomplish more in less time and fewer resources
- Put critical topics on the table and have lively meetings
- Align the team around common objectives
- Retain star employees

Part 1[edit]
Though this mission is first given to you after the initial mission has concluded, you'll need to actually find Paladin Tristan in the A-Ring of the Citadel before you're able to do anything of substance. When you track him down, speak with him. He'll thank you for all of your hard work, but he'll also not hesitate to cut directly to the chase by letting you know that there's much more work to be done. And just like that, he'll send you off to a location near Old Olney, where he hopes something called a Tesla Coil can be found. With it, he hopes, the Brotherhood can devise a new weapon that will take the place of Liberty Prime as their main mode of defense between them and the increasingly-aggressive Enclave forces.
One thing Paladin Tristan tells you before you go on your way is to visit someone named Scribe Vallincourt. She can be found down in the science laboratory underneath the Citadel, and while it's completely optional to go and find her, we implore you to do so. This is because she has a powerful device that she'll hand over to you once she's been tracked down. The Deathclaw Control Scrambler she gives you is a static item that will sit in your inventory and work automatically. What it essentially does is scramble (duh) the signal the Enclave uses to control their Deathclaws. While it will have no effect whatsoever on wild Deathclaws, Deathclaws under the control of the Enclave will quickly turn on their masters with you in their vicinity. This will free you up in the most opportune of times, and we'll even get a chance right this very instant to test out the device.
After speaking with both Scribes and acquiring the scrambler, head out to the Citadel's courtyard. Once you're there, you can easily use your Pip-Boy for instantaneous travel to Old Olney, which is an abandoned town located in the northeast corner of the Capital Wasteland. Travel there and then work your way to the south, where you should run into a contingent of Enclave soldiers and their Deathclaws. With your new handy-dandy device, this optional encounter will allow you to turn the Deathclaws on the unsuspecting Enclave soldiers. Remember, though, that you should be ready to fight the Deathclaws once their initial targets are felled, since they will no doubt turn their ire on you when there's no one left to fight.
When you're ready to proceed with the quest itself, head into Old Olney. Your "local map" will be of great help to you (it can be found on your Pip-Boy), since it will specify precisely where you need to go. While you're searching for a specific building, you can't access it from Old Olney itself. Instead, you need to access it from a sewer. The sewer in question is called, not-so-strangely, the Olney Sewer. Seek it out and head on in, but expect to find some resistance en route, especially in the form of... you guessed it!... Deathclaws.
Once you're in the sewer, you're not safe, because the only enemy type you're going to be seeing for a while is, indeed, in the form of Deathclaws. These wily, quick, strong foes will give you a hard time, so you're going to want to bring your most powerful weapons here. While we earlier witnessed the power of your new device in terms of Deathclaws being directly controlled by the Enclave, these wild Deathclaws are going to come at you for lack of anything else to attack. So be prepared to deal with one, two or even three at a time in many, many waves. When you're in the sewer, begin by going forward and to the left. This path will ultimately lead to a dead end, but there's still plenty to see down there of consequence.
After going left into the room at the end of the corridor, go left once more to reach another corridor. There are two rooms off of this thin pathway, one first on your left, and then a subsequent room also on the left. The first room contains some goods, including a Carton of Cigarettes, a Pack of Cigarettes, and even a bench to do some work on if you so desire. The room further up on the left, where the path concludes, contains some beds for you to rest on, if you need to sleep off any injuries. The offshoot from this corridor on your right ultimately leads to a dead end, and there's nothing to see down there, so you might as well just ignore it. When you've done all of this, backtrack to the ladder you used to get down into this sewer. This time, we're going rightward.
Part 2[edit]
Follow the pathway, ignoring any offshoots (most of them lead to metal gratings, and thus dead ends, anyway). The path will eventually conclude in a well-lit, square-shaped room where there's a locked door on your left and a locked safe straight ahead. While we couldn't open the door on our left (we figure it's a supply closet), we could open the safe. What we found within is worth grabbing, since you can find a .32 Pistol, ammunition for it, and some Bottle Caps. With all of that in hand, backtrack down the pathway until you find the only path splitting off from your current location, one that was on your left coming through, but that will now be on your right heading back.
Take this pathway all the way until you see a second ladder on your left. This one leads to the Old Olney Underground, and this is the direction we're going to want to go. If you want to continue to explore down here, do so, but expect to find more Deathclaws (though there are items to find as well). However, the exchange of blood for items isn't worth it (or at least, it wasn't for us), so we opted out at this point and went straight up the ladder. When you do, you'll automatically run into two Ghouls, who know all-too-well about the Deathclaw threat, and implore you to follow them out of here before it's too late. Naturally, that's not an option for you. Forward we go.
The first thing you're going to run into down here is the aforementioned Ghouls' small settlement. This is a great place not only to sleep off any injuries you've incurred since the last time you've slept, but it's also a great place to raid for items, especially in the form of foodstuffs. Searching concisely will find you Jet, some Purified Water, and lots and lots of food, from Brahmin Steak to Sugar Bombs, and everything in between. When you're satiated, continue out of this room, going up the stairs to the area overlooking the settlement. Then, continue along the linear passageway to another staircase leading downward. This will ultimately lead to a hole in the wall, leading to another sewage tunnel. When you run into this location, you'll know you're headed in the proper direction.
The first thing you're likely to notice in this new tunnel is that there's a stray mattress next to the hole in the wall, which can be used to sleep on shortly. There's also a medical box with some curative items in it, including Stimpaks and Purified Water. Heading rightward or leftward down this tunnel is futile, so instead, go through another hole busted in the wall, which will lead directly to a debris-laden makeshift ramp leading upward into the building we seek. But at the top of the hole, you'll find a lone Deathclaw who must first be dealt with. Shoot him from afar and then back up, baiting him towards you to deal more damage. When he's dead, before heading up the ramp, you may want to backtrack to the aforementioned mattress, where you can heal up without having to use hard-earned, increasingly-rare Stimpaks.
Once you do climb up the debris-strewn ramp and enter the building itself, work your way around the hole the ramp has left. This will allow you to examine a filing cabinet containing some Shotgun Shells, as well as a little isolated nook with all sorts of useless goods within it. Then, work your way back around the gap and begin exploring this wide open, half-destroyed floor. You'll find all sorts of stuff if you look thoroughly enough, and there's a lot of stuff to find, from ammunition (like .308 Caliber Rounds and 5.56mm Rounds) to weapons (like a Hunting Rifle and a Power Fist) to curative items (like Psycho and Jet) to random items (like Abraxo Cleaner and a Fission Battery), and even seventeen Frag Mines. Search, search, search!
When you're done searching for items, you'll want to seek out a gaping hole in the ground near a semi-circular desk, which is found by heading forward from the ramp and through a door and down a corridor, which will in turn lead to said desk. This will lead to an entirely new area of the building that you've yet to explore. Be sure to search the area surrounding this hole, as well as underneath it, since there are more items to be found if you're willing to search for them. Also, be ready to clear out any straggling Deathclaws you've yet to kill, since there might be some roving around in search of you. Find them first and do them in, so that they don't pincer you by attacking you from behind once you work your way into the new area below.
Part 3[edit]
When you finally get down to this new area, you'll generally be led in a one-way direction, though there is some deviation to be had, especially if you're on the hunt for items. As the corridors and small rooms open up into a larger well-lit basement, expect to be confronted by at least a couple of more Deathclaws (though there will certainly be even more roaming about as you progress further). Shelves here are lined with items, and you'll even find another bench down here, if you want to do any last minute weapon creation, et cetera. Everything from Turpentine to .308 Caliber Rounds can be found by searching down here, so be thorough.
You'll no doubt noticed a locked gate in the middle of this initial section of the basement that can be picked open. Do pick it open if you're able, and descend the stairs beyond the gate to find more items. Microfusion Cells and 10mm Rounds are amongst the booty you can collect down here, though you can also find other miscellaneous items, such as a Vacuum Cleaner and a Lawnmower Blade. After having your fill of items, walk back up the stairs and head to the back end of the basement, where another room can be found. This room is most remarkable for having a bed, making this a great location to sleep off any injuries without having to use precious healing items. Remember the location of this bed and backtrack to it, preferably after each confrontation with a Deathclaw, to revitalize your health by resting.
From the room with the bed, head back out into the main cellar and walk down the only yet-unexplored path. Expect to find at least one more Deathclaw as you go, if not more. The path will eventually turn right down what appears to be some sort of makeshift tunnel that wasn't part of the building's original design (you can find a Stimpak and other goods on the shelf near this turn in the path). Once through this tunnel, you'll likely confront a final Deathclaw. Kill him and then move forward and look to the left. You'll see a door with some stairs leading upward. These stairs ultimately lead to a new area of the building that we'll need to explore, as we get ever-closer to our destination. Be sure to search the gun cabinet near the stairs to find an Assault Rifle and some 5.56mm Rounds, if needed.
When you emerge in this new area, you'll hear the distinct noise of the Enclave's helicopters. You know that they're close. As you climb over the rubble strewn all about (this section of the building seems to be on the verge of collapse), you'll be confronted by a small group of Enclave soldiers. These guys can be dealt with easily, just like other like enemies you've fought before. As always, scour their bodies for goods as you proceed towards the staircase they were guarding. If you're especially savvy, you can try and use the rubble to climb up to the floor above, but in all reality, it's easier to just use the staircase ahead and on your right. Make sure to grab the Rad-X and Stimpak from the medical kit on the shelf before going up the stairs.
Once you're up the stairs, you may encounter resistance in the form of more standard Enclave soldiers, but what you're sure to run into here in addition is an all-new enemy you've never before encountered, a foe called the Enclave Hellfire soldier. These guys are equipped with maxed-out Flamer-like weapons called Incinerators, and these weapons are incredibly powerful. Take cover as you walk up the downed billboard to reach the foe's position, and return fire when it's safe, using VATS to your full advantage to make sure that you don't miss any opportunity to score a hit. Absolutely, positively scour his body for armor and weaponry (amongst other goods) once he's downed, and you'll find yourself all sorts of goods you didn't have before, so long as you can carry them without finding yourself over-encumbered.
We're getting close to the Tesla Coil now. Head forward along this initial pathway, and ignore the closet on your left (as it has nothing in it of interest). You can grab a Steam Gauge Assembly and some other crap off of a shelf on your left en route, but it's not necessary. When you encounter a staircase leading upward, take it. The door you find off of the main route again leads to an empty closet, so again, you'll want to ignore it. You'll eventually come up to the second floor. The catwalk you're perched upon will allow you to clearly see two Sentry Bots guarding the area below. Sneak into the office on your left to grab some Stimpaks out of a medical box, and then open fire on the Sentry Bots to quickly do them in. Jump down to the area they were guarding hereafter, and pick their bodies clean of ammunition (likely in the form of Missiles) before proceeding.
Part 4[edit]
The pathway on the left that the pair of Sentry Bots were guarding is both dimly-lit and ill-guarded once those two are dispatched from this Earth. Follow the pathway, keeping an eye out for anything you can grab of interest (likely only in the form of more curative items). The pathway will eventually open up into a room with a catwalk above and a staircase leading up to it. Before running up the stairs, scour this room for more items of value, like a Pack of Cigarettes and a Carton of Cigarettes. Then, run up the staircase and do battle with the Sentry Bot you encounter, using the cubicles nearby as cover, while you whittle down the foe's health. As you did with the Sentry Bots earlier, grab the Missile(s) and anything else you can off of the Sentry Bot before you continue onward.
The corridor this last Sentry Bot hailed from is heavily, heavily irradiated. So, use some Rad-X on yourself, and then quickly run leftward through this area until you're out of harm's way (use RadAway on yourself if you got a heavy dose en route). The room you come to is full of electrical coils and two more Sentry Bots for you to take care of. Thankfully, there's plenty of room in which you can maneuver, and the Sentry Bots aren't ultra mobile, so isolate the two enemies and take them out one at a time. Then, head straight through this area to the door on the other side.
This thin corridor is lined with computers on both sides. The door to your left is conspicuously sealed shut, which will force you to head rightward instead. However, you'll find yet another locked door down there. As you get to the bottom of things here -- that is to say, when you figure out that the switch on the far end of the corridor must be turned on in order for the door on the right to open -- two Mark VI Turrets will make themselves seen behind the earlier locked door. Take both of those devices out, and then swing through the door near the switch. We're in the vicinity of the much-sought after Tesla Coil now.
This room has an impressive amount of electricity coursing through it, due to the very Tesla Coil we're about to steal. If your back is facing the way you came in, you can head forward and go through doors on your left or right. You should ignore the door on your right, as it will ultimately lead back towards the entrance of this building. Instead, take the door on your left. The subsequent corridor and stairs you encounter will lead you further downward (ignore the ladder leading back up to Old Olney for a minute). You'll eventually come to a highly-charged room with the Tesla Coil in the middle of a circular area. Use Buffout to strengthen your character, and make sure you're fully healed. Then, approach and touch the coil. This will slam you with heavy damage, but it will add the coveted Tesla Coil to your inventory, which is why you came here in the first place.
With the Tesla Coil in hand, backtrack out of the room and back up the stairs until you encounter the earlier-mentioned ladder that leads back up to the surface. With the Tesla Coil acquired, there's no reason to wait any longer, so head on up the ladder. Once back outside, quickly call up your Pip-Boy and use it to teleport instantaneously to the Citadel. Enter the Citadel and immediately seek out Ring-A. Wandering around Ring-A, you will find Paladin Tristan. Speak with him and hand over the Tesla Coil to complete this mission. After thanking you however, Tristan will waste no time in getting you involved in the third and final main mission on this piece of DLC.
