I think this is an original idea - I've never seen this treatment before, and a quick google search doesn't turn up any. Even for those of us with fully functional eyes, this mod has value: I'd say 90%+ of the goggles I've seen on steampunks have stayed firmly on the forehead anyway.
EDIT Hey, featured! Awesome! Added an extra step to address some of the "Hey you can't see with those on" complaints.
Step 1: Materials and tools
Materials: Goggles
LED (3.3v clear white. Diffused would probably be better. I used white because my goggles had a blue filter in them already, go with whatever color you like.)
Battery (CR2032 3V Lithium)
Battery Housing, for CR2032
Wax Paper (for diffusing. Probably not really necessary, but I figured it couldn't hurt.)
Tin Foil (for reflecting. See above.)
Bottle Cap (Vitamin water, in my case. Mine fit perfectly, if that hadn't been the case, I'm betting making it fit would have been the toughest part of this. As that will be custom to each set of goggles, I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader.
Pin vice
Hobby knife (you could almost certainly get away with just the hobby knife. I used the other tools because I had them.)
Things I should have used/will eventually use (not pictured)
Soldering Iron
Beyond cool :) Great job!
You can purchase prescription swim goggles for about $20. They aren't perfect but close enough to maneuver with.
Thank you so much for this neat Instructable.
Hey, did you ever attach a switch to this design? If so how'd you do it?
I've got a pair of welding goggles and am trying to use this mod with a push button on/off switch on the side to control the lights without removing the battery.

What I think to be his goggles: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220699318241
Some other goggles like them: http://www.steampunkgoggles.org/?p=15
If these are the right ones slickshughes, reply that it is correct please.
It's about time to add another Instructable? What do you think?
In Step 5, you just say to attach the battery holder, but don't say how this can be done without solder. In which case, how do you solder near plastic without melting it? Also, how far away from the lenses do your lights sit? Everything that I have tried ends up with one little spot of a light and not diffuse at all.
Now I know this was beside the point for you, but I've got an idea to make them see-through, might be a bit complicated, though.
Mount the LEDs inside the lens, in recesses you drill in them, so that the light diffuses through the lens like the LED-lighted [lit?] panels you see on computer case-mods.
You'd be able to see through them, and everything would be tinted the color of the LEDs (which is cool). Just an idea for those who want to be able to see through them.

Security and privacy
Freedom of information and protection of privacy
UFV collects and maintains personal information used for the purposes of admission, registration, and other fundamental activities related to being a member of the UFV community and attending a public post-secondary institution in the Province of British Columbia. In signing an application for admission, all applicants are advised that the information they provide and any other information placed into their student record will be protected and used in compliance with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act [RSBC 1996]. Requests for access to information under the Act should be directed to the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Office.
Students should be aware that information about a student cannot be released to a third party, including a parent, without written, signed consent from the student or a valid court order.
Confidentiality of student records
UFV will share information with government agencies for statistical purposes, and will respond to requests for access to records according to provisions of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. The B.C. Provincial Education number (PEN) is required for research into student participation. Students' personal information provided on the application form is used to verify or assign a PEN. Any personal information collected for research purposes will be disseminated in non-identifiable form.
Student names, addresses, telephone numbers, and ID numbers will be shared with the Student Union Society to assist in the delivery of services and the conduct of elections. Names and addresses of graduates are shared with the UFV Alumni Association.
Security of your student records
To ensure that no unauthorized person can obtain access to a student's records, students are expected to keep their UFV student numbers private and confidential. Students will be required to set a unique Personal Identification Number
(PIN) in order to use student web services. It should be kept safe and secure. Students are responsible for any transactions made using their student number and PIN.
For additional information about the University's obligations under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, please contact the University's Information Privacy Office at ufv.ca/informationprivacy.
Grading and academic records
UFV's grading system reflects a commitment to high academic standards while encouraging students to explore the curriculum. The following system is used for all courses taken after September 1, 1990:
Grade Points Interpretation
* These indicate a non-graded status. They are not included in calculation of the GPA nor are they removed from a transcript if the course is repeated.
A P grade does not, unless stated otherwise, permit the student to pursue another course for which the graded course was a prerequisite.
**Some courses may be offered on a credit or no credit basis. In such cases, students achieving a level equivalent to C- or better will be assigned a CR (credit) grade. Students achieving below the C- level will be assigned an NCR grade. Courses with CR grades may be used as a course prerequisite, provided the course prerequisite does not require a grade above a C-. Credit/No Credit courses will not be included in the GPA. There is no equivalent letter grade.
Grade point average
UFV calculates a grade point average (GPA) based on grades for all courses taken by a student.
The semester and overall (cumulative) GPA show on the official transcript. The
semester or term GPA (TGPA) is the grade point average for all UFV coursework
completed in one semester.
The cumulative GPA (CGPA) is the grade point average for all coursework
completed at UFV in which a letter grade was assigned. For repeated courses,
only the course with the higher grade is used in this calculation. Course
withdrawals and audit grades are not included in the calculations. A student who
has only audit grades, has, by definition, a GPA of 0.
To calculate your GPA:
1. Multiply the number of credits for each course by the grade point value of the grade to determine course grade points. Omit any courses that have been repeated with a higher grade.
2. Add up the course grade points.
3. Divide the total course grade points by the total number of credits.
Incomplete grades
An I (incomplete) grade may be assigned by an instructor when a student has
not completed all the requirements of a course but does not, in the opinion of
the instructor, warrant an NC or other grade. Students given an I grade may earn
a passing grade by fulfilling an agreement with their instructors to complete
certain assignments within a specified time, normally not more than six weeks
after the end of a course.
Students may obtain official transcripts of their permanent records from the Office of the Registrar at a cost of $10 each.
Undergraduate academic standing/Continuance policy
UFV encourages students to take responsibility for success in their studies. To that end, UFV will encourage students who do not meet minimum requirements to stop and reassess their goals.
The Undergraduate Continuance policy applies to all undergraduate students attending UFV. A student's academic standing, based on grade point averages, determines his or her enrolment status and any conditions associated with that status, including the ability to continue as a student of UFV.
For more information see UFV's Undergraduate Continuance policy (92).
Procedures for continuance in programs with continuance requirements
Students who do not meet program continuance requirements are subject to the Academic Warning policy (79). Program continuance requirements are included in the relevant program information section in this calendar.
Continuance requirements for graduate studies are in the General regulations for Graduate studies section of this calendar.
Academic warning
Students may be required to withdraw from a course or program because of poor academic performance. Before this action is taken, students are given a warning and an opportunity to improve their work.
Final grade appeal
Students who have cause to appeal may appeal final grades. Students may not appeal individual items of work inclusive of examinations, quizzes, projects, assignments, practicums, or field work assessments except in the context of an appeal of the final grade.
For more information about final grade appeals see UFV's Final Grade Appeals policy (217) or visit the Office for Academic Integrity and Appeals website.
Amendment of permanent record
A course and accompanying grade may not be deleted from the permanent record. However, only the higher grade of a repeated course is calculated into the GPA.
An instructor may change the grade of a student with the consent of the appropriate department head.
A course and accompanying grade may not be deleted from the permanent record, except as follows:
Note: Although grades for all attempted courses remain on the student's permanent record, only the higher grade of a repeated course is calculated into the GPA.
Deans' List
The Deans' List recognizes those university students who have maintained a high academic standard throughout their course of studies. It is prepared for Convocation and the end of each semester.
To be eligible for the Deans' List, a student must:
(a) have successfully completed at least fifteen credits in a semester with a semester grade point average of at least 3.5; or
(b) have a documented permanent disability, which affects his/her ability to participate in full-time studies and have successfully completed at least nine credits in a semester with a semester grade point average of at least 3.5; or
(c) have completed all the program graduation requirements with a grade point average of at least 3.5 based on the credits earned while in the program or the previous five years, whichever is shorter, with a semester GPA of at least 3.0 in the most recent semester in which at least one graded course was completed; or
(d) be in an entry-level Trades program and have an average of 90% or higher in all courses.
Course Loads, Academic Program policy
A full course load for an undergraduate student is normally five courses per semester. Students are encouraged to enrol in not more than five courses per semester and may not enrol in more than 20 credits of coursework per semester without prior permission. Some university-level programs, such as Engineering Transfer, require an overload. Please refer to the Course Loads, Academic Program policy (63).
It is the student's responsibility to ensure that all program requirements are met. This should be done by regular program review and/or consultation with the appropriate department.
UFV recognizes a student's graduation by awarding a degree, diploma, or certificate. Students must apply for graduation by completing a request to graduate form at the Office of the Registrar.
This may be done once a student is registered in the final semester of the
program. Students must apply to graduate no later than April 1, with program requirements completed by April 30,
to be eligible for graduation the following June. There is a $25 graduation fee. Applications received between April 2 and May 1 are subject to a $75 graduation fee.
Students who intend to use credit from other institutions to meet graduation requirements for a UFV credential, need to apply for transfer credit at least three to four months before applying to graduate.
Graduation requirements
Graduation requirements for a program may change over time. Your graduation
requirements for a program, major, or minor will be determined by the academic
year in which you are formally admitted to the program or formally declare the
major or minor. You will not be permitted to graduate using requirements that
were in place prior to formal admittance.
Convocation ceremonies are held in the second week of June. The date, time, and location of the ceremonies is available online at ufv.ca/convocation.
Students must apply to graduate by April 1. Applications received between April 2 and May 1 are subject to a $75 graduation fee. There is a $25 graduation fee, plus a regalia rental fee. Regalia should be ordered online prior to the ceremony; see ufv.ca/convocation for details or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Student Non-Academic Conduct
UFV requires student behaviour to conform to that normally expected of university students in an educational setting. Students are required to conduct themselves in a mature and responsible manner, consistent with the University mission, policies, and regulations and in compliance with federal, provincial, and municipal laws. Students will be held accountable for their actions whether acting alone or in a group. Failure by students to maintain a satisfactory standard of conduct may result in disciplinary action. For more information see UFV's Student Non-Academic Conduct policy (204).
Student Academic Misconduct
Members of the University community are expected to carry out their scholarly work with honesty, to meet the highest ethical standards, to respect the facts and appropriate standards of evidence, and to acknowledge the contributions and scholarship of others. As members of the University community, students are expected to demonstrate appropriate academic conduct. They are responsible for their actions, whether acting alone or in a group.
The University will vigorously investigate allegations of academic misconduct, while taking all reasonable steps to protect the rights and interests of individuals whose work or performance is questioned. For more information see UFV's Student Academic Misconduct policy (70).
Harassment prevention
Under UFV policy BRP-201.02 and Harassment Prevention policy (18), harassment is defined as behaviour that is inappropriate or unwanted, and which the individual ought reasonably to know or have known would cause offence or harm. It comprises objectionable acts, comments, or displays that demean, belittle, or cause personal humiliation; and acts of intimidation or threats which would be considered by a reasonable person to create an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment for work, study, and other university-related activities.
Harassment includes behaviour which would be considered discriminatory under the B.C. Human Rights Code, including humiliating, offending, or demeaning a person or group of persons on the basis of race, colour, ancestry, place of origin, political belief, religion, marital status, family status, physical or mental disability, sex, sexual orientation, age, or unrelated criminal conviction.
Sexual harassment is defined as unwanted sexual attention, sexual solicitation, or sexually-oriented remarks. It includes unwanted behaviour such as touching, suggestive or demeaning remarks, jokes or other types of verbal abuse of a sexual or sexist nature directed at an individual or group; and graphic or suggestive comments about an individual's appearance, sex, or sexual orientation, made by a person who knows or ought reasonably to know that such attention, solicitation, or behaviour is unwanted.
For additional information about UFV's Harassment Prevention policy, please contact the University's Human Rights and Conflict Resolution Office on the Abbotsford Campus at 604-864-4660, email@example.com, or ufv.ca/hrcro.
English language requirement
English is the primary language of instruction at UFV. Students in post-secondary degree, diploma, or certificate programs require at least a minimum level of English language proficiency. Applicants meet the English language proficiency requirement for admission to post-secondary programs if they can demonstrate English language competence through any of the English language proficiency standards.
For further details, see English language proficiency requirement in the Admissions section of the calendar, and UFV's English Language Proficiency Requirement policy (99).
Residency requirement
In order to earn a UFV certificate, diploma, or degree, a student must complete at least 25% of the required credits for the credential at UFV. Some programs require 50% or more of the required credits be completed at UFV. Programs may also specify that a minimum number of upper-level credits be completed at UFV. Please refer to the program information in this calendar for further information. Transfer credits and credits earned through prior learning assessment, including course challenge, do not meet this requirement.
Subsequent degree
Students who have already completed a degree at the bachelor's level may be granted an additional bachelor's degree provided that the two degrees are
in different areas, and that the student has met the program requirements. No more than 75% of the credits required for the additional degree may be applied from any previous degree. At least 30 upper-level (300-400) credits for the subsequent degree must be taken at UFV.

No one here is going to tell you what you need to do. You are your own boss. Members will give you street names and suggest a path of travel but you will need to find your own way to your destination. The legal answer when the product you sell can hurt or kill a client or a third part is "I recommend you hire an engineer to calculate the stresses involved and recommend a suitable solution"
That said some times you have to have done the work first to know what questions to ask.
We all need more information before any real suggestions can be forwarded. First are the cracks in the same place on the chassis?
Is the cracking due to fatigue, catastrophic failure or temperature?
Have you got any photographs of the cracks to post so we can take a look?
I bike frames I have repaired have been dirt bike frames not street bikes. The loads transfer through the tyres up the shocks and into the frame from jumps and so forth. Damage usually occurs when flat landing off a jump, the shocks and forks bottom out leaving only the frame to flex. If the load is very high catastrophic failure is the end result, if the load is less, the resulting frame flexing will be added to the fatigue cycles. The other issue could be cold weather. If the bike was left outside on a freezing night the metal could shatter on the next pot hole.
Being a hard tail and a chopper the forces transfer in different vectors than a dirt bike. The tyres and frame make up the suspension for the frame. Frame flex can be solved by increasing the depth of chassis members not so much by wall thickness of tube. It can also be reduced by adding stiffening members like gusset plates or cross tubes. If you solve the cracking problem by increasing frame size the frame may be too stiff to ride with comfort as frame flex is required. There is no suspension as we know it in F1 cars. The engineers have worked out how much load it takes to flex the steering arms 25mm and that is the suspension. This saves weight but if they increased the steering arms to eliminate the flex the drivers would not be able to complete 60 laps.
JiGrip it and Rip it
I know this info isn't for a bike or car frame per say but when i worked in the refinery some pipe had to be PWHT post weld heat treated. The pipes were already welded together 100's of feet long so a big oven is out. They had comapnies come in the specialized in heat treating. They brought in trailers of items. They wrapped the pipe with long firecracker looking things and wrapped with white insulation. Then everything was tied together to some welder looking machines where the temps were raised and lowered by computers. Heated so high then cooled slow taking 24 hours for some. Learned some watching but most of it was off limits. I did see the pipes glowing red hot during the high heat cycles...BobBob Wright, Grandson of Tee Nee Boat Trailer Founder

jigantor, f1 cars do have suspension. Not that it has anything to do with the op's question . Not to be rude, just an f1 fanatic.
This is just ferrari's current set up. Has springs and dampers, like always, just in a new layout. http://www.formula1.com/news/technical/2012/0/937.html

Olive Tree Genealogy YouTube Channel has many online Cemetery Walk videos for all to view freely.
What are Cemetery Walks? They are photographs of gravestones in cemeteries, converted to a video.
My husband and I stop at cemeteries whenever we can. We then photograph as many tombstones as possible. Sometimes we can photograph an entire cemetery. Sometimes we can only take pictures of part of the cemetery. We always try to return to finish a cemetery if we can.
We also welcome submissions from other genealogists and researchers. In fact Olive Tree Genealogy's October and November 2011 Genealogy Challenges were for readers to donate 15 minutes of their time and go photograph as many tombstones as they could in a local cemetery!
If you would like to participate in this project to bring as many cemetery photographs online as possible, please send your photos to Lorine at email@example.com It is easiest if you upload them to a Picasa or Flickr Web Album or into shared cloud storage (such as Dropbox or SugarSync) and send me the link. But you may email photos directly to me if you prefer.

|Stowe Car Show Reminder
The Stowe antique and classic car show is this weekend. I've been seeing some great looking old cars in the area the last couple of days. Many of the entrants come up here a few days early to do some scenic touring. The show usually attracts nearly 1,000 collector automobiles.
Look for it at Nichol's Field a few minutes south of Stowe on Route 100. For more information, see my July 20 entry by going to the bottom of this page and clicking on the gold "2" to the right of where it says Page 1 of 2, and then scroll down.

Start with a Robust and Reliable Foundation
Every Hypervisor is Not Created Equal
Avoid unnecessary risk and overhead by choosing a robust and production-proven hypervisor as the foundation for your virtualized datacenter. Selecting the right hypervisor is the first step towards success in building a virtual infrastructure.
Not all hypervisors are equal. Learn more about how VMware vSphere® Hypervisor is - and will continue to be - the industry's most robust and production-proven hypervisor and why VMware is the best choice for building a virtual infrastructure.

Comparing VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V
VMware vSphere—the industry's first x86 "bare-metal" hypervisor—is the most reliable and robust hypervisor. Launched in 2001 and now in its fifth generation, VMware vSphere has been production-proven in tens of thousands of customer deployments all over the world.
Other hypervisors are less mature, unproven in a wide cross-section of production datacenters, and lacking core capabilities needed to deliver the reliability, scalability, and performance that customers require.
VMware is the clear and obvious leader in virtualization products. We tried both the Microsoft and Oracle virtualization products and found them lacking in features and performance compared to the VMware product.David Greer, Director of Information Services, HelioVolt Corporation
So while others try to catch up to VMware in the areas highlighted below, VMware's continuing enhancements are taking vSphere to the next level of enterprise-class hypervisors needed to deliver the Software-Defined Data Center—further extending VMware's lead and ensuring that VMware customers obtain unparalleled levels of performance and reliability.

Great little receiver Pros: Easy to hook up. has all the hardware. I like it.Displays the artist and the name. Cons: Hard to see the Xm station number. To many little wires on my dash. Hearing a humm.Maybe from the ac plug in. The Crutchfield tech is sending me another complete tuner to try and solve the problem. Other wise works well. Was this review helpful? Yes No Do not buy Written By Young, St. Paul, Mn on Wednesday, February 18, 2015 I gave up on these units, I have had 3 differant models over the years and had the same problems with all 3. I think the only reason these units get any positive reviews is because the reviewers have had them very long. Poor design for the connections to the base result in constant fiddling to get the unit to work. Back lighting fails, buttons fail leaving you with only the remote to control the unit until that eventially failed too. Everytime I was forced to buy a new unit Sirius wanted to charge me to switch the account to a new reciever. These units are complete wate of money. I would have rated these units a negetive number if I could have. I don't mean this to sound like a rant but the quality of these units is absolutely horrible. Pros: absolutely none Cons: Everthing about them is a con which is a shame because I like the variety of music that sat radio offers. Over the air stations have become like tv, nothing but commecials with poor and limited content. Was this review helpful? Yes No Beautiful upgrade! Written By David L., Texas on Sunday, February 08, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I had to buy a new satellite radio after 6 years and I love this unit! The best thing is it picks up the extra stations my old unit didn't. The color screen with station logos is great! The only thing I miss, is there is no longer the time display but oh well. Was this review helpful? Yes No Sirius XM Edge Written By Paulette F., Roanoke, VA on Friday, October 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This was my first purchase of a satellite radio. I was connecting it to a SD2 boom box from Sirius and was surprised at how easy it was to follow the directions to get set up. The sound is magnificent and easily competes with a Bose system in my opinion. I have been delighted with the variety of programming. I found exceptional customer service from the Crutchfield team and from Sirius radio staff. I would highly recommend the Edge and the Crutchfield company. Pros: The Edge is easy to set up and use and the quality of the sound for the money is an excellent value. Cons: The only difficulty I had in hooking the Edge up to the boombox was that it took several attempts to get the radio clicked in securely enough to prevent in and out reception. Once I took the radio off the dock and reinserted the dock and the radio with a little more pressure the connection was made and the reception has been perfect. Was this review helpful? Yes No Exceptional Value Written By Richard, United States on Sunday, August 31, 2014 The Crutchfield Installation was fast and he did a good job. Pros: This receiver is easy-to-use and works great! Cons: None. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No XM Edge is great! Written By RobertH, Lancaster, PA on Friday, August 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) XM Edge is a great unit. I used this to replace a very old XM Roady unit in my car that quit working.. Had no trouble installing it and setting it up. Got it activated fast over the phone. I even used my present XM antenna that I had installed on my car. Didn't use the included antenna. Love it that it was compatible with the new unit. Plugged right in. Made installation easy for me. Everything works great. Display is great. Use the built-in FM modulator to feed my factory installed car radio. Works as good or better than my old Roady. Highly recommend this unit. You get a rebate and free and fast shipping from Crutchfield. Greatly appreciater tha! Pros: Everything Cons: Nothing 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Good but gets bad Written By Ken K, Shenandoah, Pa. on Wednesday, August 20, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have this radio over 3 years. It worked great up until about 3 months ago. Aggravated driving down the road to lose reception and get a check antenna message, kind of irritates a person. Antenna is fine as the radio/cradle both are cheap and do not last. My radio has taken a beating from me a few times as I keep getting that antenna message. wedge the radio in the base it works, for a few miles, then antenna warning, adjust radio in base it works then don't. I ripped it off the dash a few times and right now is working laying on the console "face down". Do not buy this receiver, as it'll let you down at one point. Cheap Crap! Pros: Works Great for about 3 years Cons: Pothole ridden roadways will pay its toll on the cheapP mount and internals of the receiver. It'll let you down when you least expect it. 2 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Sirius XM radio Written By DickR, Columbia SC on Monday, June 09, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Unit arrived as "new' -very satisfied except ac vent mount doesn't fit my Chrysler van. Pros: Seems to be very sensitive even though I mounted the antenna on my dash since the windshield is huge. Installation very simple. Cons: Hard to see station number - very small. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No XM Radio that ok Written By The Builder, Orlando Florida USA on Saturday, March 29, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I had a Delphi Skyfi2 for the past 6 years in my 2005 SCION XB that served me well. The jog wheel finally gave out and I needed a new Sat Radio. I did buy my wife an XM XpressRCi (Color Screen) a few years ago, but wanted another unit for my car. I looked into this unit since it had the jog wheel that I was familiar with and 10 preset buttons on the right side and a good layout of the buttons on the unit. I have a home and car dock and this will suffice for now. Pros: Fairly well built, good sharp screen, knows when its docked (home use turns off FM broadcast), knows when its in the car (turns on FM via Power Connect FM Transmitter. Good layout of screen. Quick menu Genres via buttons below tune wheel. Quick bootup from power up. Good SAT radio reception no fade. Xtra XM Channels can be heard with the EDGE receiver (Sirius XM 2.0 update). JUMP feature can jump to previous channel or set to monitor weather. ALL THE SONG info will show on screen and scroll ! Cons: Really dudes you took away "Tune Select" from this radio. The WAY COOL feature that automatically tuned to the statiion that is playing your favourite soug on a channel. AND you took out the Clock Display in the top right corner, the time signal is already in the XM Stream why not display it. Im not a sports fan but you took the Sports and News ticker tape band on the bottom of the display out too !!! These are not deal breakers but not that hard to have left in the units capabilites. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Awsome Written By Justin, Omaha,ne on Thursday, January 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) With my old receiver I couldn't take it anywhere. It was stuck in my work truck. And with my subscription I am only allowed 3 devices, so with 3 cars that was the only time I could enjoy satellite radio. But now I an take this anywhere I go.. My car, wife car, (or any other car I might be in) inside my house or out camping with the family. I was once worried about only being able to hook 3 devices to my account and now I only need one Pros: Portable, easy hook up Cons: Needs to be plugged in 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM Edge Written By Bear, Belton, TX on Saturday, October 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great little sat receiver can use a bigger screen and display. need to have some way to hook directly in to any head unit and work of USB or any cabling Pros: Works in small cars where display is in direct sight Cons: I have it in a truck would not recommend where I had to set it can see the screen. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great XM Tuner Written By Scott, Las Vegas, NV on Sunday, September 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great tuner. Pros: Easy to use Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes No siriusxm edge Written By Denniscr, Mayville, WI on Saturday, August 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sent back first Edge because of poor dock to Edge antenna connection (didn't last 1 day). Replacement...same problem. I use a small bungee to keep the connection firm. These are not up to the beating of a semi-tractor cab. Pros: Nice display and features. Cons: Not durable enough. 3 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM Edge Written By YG, Brookline, MA on Sunday, June 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I recently purchased this radio because of a new long commute. The radio works very well. I attached the antenna myself near the passenger door to test the reception and have kept it there. (I only get blocked reception in tunnels and in one stretch of high that is like being in a canyon.) Sound quality is decent (but not great) through the AUX jack into my radio. As others have said, the tuning knob is very sensitive and needs a very light touch. I also find the display a bit small - I can read the title & artists fine, but the station icons are too small to see, which is annoying when I am looking for a particular station. I separately purchased a windshield mount which I find much easier to adapt to my car. The vent brackets were annoying to use. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this product. Pros: Overall works very well. Cons: Adjusting knob very sensitive. Difficult to see station icons on the display. Doesn't include a windshield mount. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Good product but defective connection. Mixed review Written By CynthiaG, Olathe, KS on Sunday, June 23, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I had this installed and it worked fine but sound only came through one speaker. It wasn't the car's system because regular radio and iPad sound came through all speakers. It wasn't the car's AUX jack because iPad sound came through the AUX jack. I could not get the Sirius customer service people to understand this. Their solution was to have me send the radio back to them for replacement. Which is fine, except that I had paid to have it installed, would have to pay to have it uninstalled, and then pay to have the replacement installed. Finally a more 'senior' tech person suggested that we do the alternate installation system: instead of going through the AUX jack we use an unused FM station to get the sound. She walked us through the steps and now it works find. I would give it 5 stars for the product - it's easy to use and I like Sirius a lot. But a (I assume) connection defect isn't a 5-star product and the troubleshooting was inadequate. Pros: Simple to use, small and handy Cons: Installation instructions not clear. Sirius customer service not very thoughtful. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM Edge Written By Del G, Myerstown,PA on Monday, June 17, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have recently purchased Sirius XM Edge for a2011 Nissan Altima with a mediocre radio. When I installed the Edge in my car the sound was excellent even with the stock speakers. Pros: Quality product Cons: None 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Not bad, but.... Written By Steve, Sandy, UT on Saturday, May 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I installed the Edge into a 2008 Honda CRV. Installation was a little frustrating trying to figure out a mounting position for the unit. On the dash is handy but subject to glare and very visible from outside as the car has a huge windshield. Also the CRV has such tight seams between dash pieces that the cables wouldn't fit down in to them for a clean look. As other reviewers have noted, the Dock and Play unit is pretty lightweight, with flimsy locking tabs and the resulting loose fit that vibrates (the noise is not noticeable if music is playing). The adhesive on the mounting pedestal gave up after 3 weeks mounted vertically even after cleaning the lower dash with the alcohol pad, although a friends unit has lasted 2 years mounted on the dash in a horizontal position so maybe the fault is w/ my mounting location. Also the tuner face is a magnet for dust and hair, and the rotary knob is too easy to turn w/ no feel to it so bumps in the road translate to lots of unintended movement. The clarity of the music is ok, and it is nice to not have to change cds with a good variety of music on each channel. I gave the unit only 3 stars mainly because even though it functions ok, the parts don't have a quality feel to them. Lastly, the unit pops through the speakers when the car is turned on or off. As a side note, this is in my wifes car and she loves the variety of music, and the info on the display. Pros: Inexpensive after rebate, tuner functions well Cons: Needs better quality parts, especially the mount and the rotary knob 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Radio Written By BoB W., Rockford,TN on Friday, May 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I love that this radio lets you preview what's playing on other channels. You can browse the channels by lists of genres, your favorites, or all channels in numerical order of the channel number! I also like being able to replay a song that I'm listening to or songs that have been stored in memory (up to 30 minutes). Artist names or song titles will scroll if they're too long for the display. If this is your first satellite radio, trust me, you'll never go back to listening to FM. On top of all that, Crutchfield's well trained staff will be able to answer ANY type of question that you may have. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No 4th Satellite receiver Written By Rick H, Sarasota FL on Sunday, April 14, 2013 This XM unit was purchased to replace my first-gen Audiovox Sirius receiver. SiriusXM still treats each brand separately. I had to cancel one of the two units on my Sirius account and open an XM account - losing the multi-receiver discount. Internal FM modulator has multiple selectable frequencies that are easily adjusted. FM adapter cable is not supplied. Stereo phone jack for line output requires adapter cable to RCA plugs, not supplied. Display is multi-color with graphics and not as legible as the old Audiovox. Also only has 10 presets, not 20 like the old unit. Very slim design with decent recessed connections on the dock. Ahhh....the dock. Unbeleiveably flimsy mounting. I bought a second mount kit for another vehicle. The ball mount is difficult to tighten securely. The rear slide mount places the unit over an inch from a rear mounting location and requires screws to supplement the sticky tape. The dock latches into the rear slide mount. Bottom slide mount has no latch, so the whole dock slides off the mount when accelerating. If I only used it in one vehicle, I'd glue it, but the second dock is shuffed between my company car and RV, so I put up with the problem. Power supply is only available as a cigarette lighter adapter, so you must rig a socket if you want to conceal the wiring. Overall, it works as intended, but aside from size, it is a downgrade from the old Audiovox unit. Pros: Compact, Line level output. Cons: Flimsy mounting system, passable display legibility. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Very Happy Written By BryanF, New Jersey on Wednesday, April 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) New to XM radio. I take x-country trips and XM radio is just what I need. I am pleased with the variety of music, sports news & talk. The Edge was easy to setup in the car. The Edge is great for my needs. Cons: Needs a remote for the driver. Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM Edge Written By Travis, Wichita, KS on Wednesday, April 10, 2013 Overall a great device, pros outweigh the cons for the price. Pros: Affordable, portable (one radio/multiple locales), great sound quality, sharp color display, seems durable in construction. Cons: Only 10 presets. Car kit doesn't actually include the FM transmitter- only an auxiliary cable. Descriptions of the Edge car kit, particularly on the box, left me with the distinct impression it was included (separate purchase). I've read that the FM transmitter was integrated with the 12v power adapter, but not so on the SX1EV1. Non-illuminated remote keys, & the keys require a bit more pressure than one might expect. Remote requires a CR2032 coin cell (not AA). 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Edge Written By Curtis, Glasgow MT on Sunday, March 17, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Really nice great radio for the price. pause rewind feature is nice. Pros: Nice color display. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Excellent! Written By Steve, Wantagh, NY on Monday, December 31, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is my first satellite radio. I chose this over the Onyx only because of the ability to pause and rewind, plus a few other navigation features. Installation is a snap. Reception is also very good with the antenna on the dash of my minivan. Vent clip is a little too flexible for my likes, it makes tuning a little difficult while driving. Will be looking into alternate mounting soon. Sound is excellent using the AUX input on my in-dash receiver. Crutchfield staff, as usual, very helpful and knowledgeable. Pros: Great commercial-free alternative to over-the-air radio Cons: Takes up cigarette lighter outlet. Would like to have hardwire option. 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Easy! Written By Terry K, Beaumont, TX on Thursday, November 15, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I'm very impressed with the Edge. I had a dedicated satellite radio in my previous vehicle and had gotten a bit spoiled to XM radio - my current vehicle just has the aux-in jack, so I thought I'd take a chance on the Edge. Very easy to install, just taking a little extra time to tuck in the few wires for a neater looking installation, and it sounds just great! Pros: easy installation Cons: none 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Works ok Written By Anonymous, Wyoming on Monday, November 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) My impression of Satellite radio was that it sounded a bit like stereo over a cell phone. Yes, it worked but the signal quality was noticeably off from broadcast FM. I was told that the newer devices like the Edge had much better quality of sound. I am still underwhelmed with the sound quality, but it usable and will be better than what we have for traditional radio in this part of the country. Oddly, it sounds better in the car, than it does at home. Crutchfield has been great to work with and the will accept the unit for return up till 60 days if I am not happy with it. Hard to beat that kind of support on electronics. Pros: Product and parts were complete and easy to install. I had some technical issue with not picking up all the channels. Called Tech Support and within a reasonable wait time they updated software and corrected the problem. System works correctly and receives all channels. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM Edge Written By Burk, Jacksonville, FL on Thursday, October 04, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) A little difficult to find a place on the dash of my 2002 Chrysler T&C but I finally cut down the mounting foot of the enclosed bracket and screwed it to a blank off plate next to the rear window wiper. Pros: Relatively easy to install if you know what you're doing. Doesn't look bad where it is. Easy to see and operate. Cons: Sound is only as good as the radio which isn't as good as I'd like it to be. But I love the no commercials music. Would like to have a power cable that I can run to the fuse box instead of a cigarette plug power connection. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No good tuner love the lcd info screen Written By Ken M, Wake Forest,NC on Sunday, September 23, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Works great but too many features the average person will never use why duplicate every control with the remote? not very user friendly. Just put it on a station you like and forget it. Pros: tunes stations and lets you know which one you are on Cons: difficult to figure out --just use the remote, find station and control volume 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No nice alternative to am/fm Written By gk, washington on Thursday, July 05, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Added to my 2005 Nissan Frontier for a x-country drive from WA to the southeastern US. Works as advertised. Installation was easy; I used the adhesive mount and located it left of the steering wheel on the dash. Pros: Clear, advertisement free music. Pretty simple installation using included instructions plus Crutchfields master sheet supplement. Cons: Reception is hit or miss in mountainous areas, not the radio's fault. Mount is a little flimsy; I am hesitant to use one hand to operate the controls as the unit moves quite a bit with each button push. 6 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes No Good value Written By Chuck, Ocean View, DE on Thursday, June 07, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Edge has worked great so far. The sound quality is very good and I have no complaints. I strongly recommend this product. Pros: Easy to program and activate Cons: None so far... 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great for the money Written By Greg Wurst, Erie, PA on Tuesday, April 10, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product at an affordable price. I do have a lot of car audio installation experience so this was pretty easy for me. Even so it still took me less than an hour to install in my wifes RAV4. The only complaint I have is that it didn't come with a free trial subscription but that isn't Crutchfields fault. I look forward to many long drives with commercial free music this summer! Pros: Easy install, easy to program. Activation took only minutes. Cons: Didn't come with a direct hard wire kit or free trial subscription 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I figured the best way to do this would be to use tags and after trying some tagging software, none of which I cared much for, I've settled for a somewhat unconventional solution. I use Linkman to organize these files. The files can be dragged and dropped to the "Apps" folder in linkman, the Apps folder has ~apps in its
Edit: Quicker/"dirtier" approach, just add the tags to the filename and use something like Everything to find them. The name length restrictions shouldn't pose much of a problem. Also takes care of portability. [Edit: Bad bad bad for command line utilities! ]

Title: bread for success - part 3
Date: March 13, 2007
Summary: The duo enter the castle only to find it soon besieged!
Cast: Beaver, Steve, Toaster People, Toaster King, Toastiemakerians, Robot, Lion
Onomatopoeias used: "CRASH!", "*BATTLE!*"
Number of panels: 6
Panel 1
[Our heroes have many encounters...]
There is a robot looking oddly similar to Emotibot, holding a heart. He has a funnel on his head.
Robot: "Love?"
Panel 2
[on their journey...]
There is an upright standing lion holding a jar with guts in it. In front of him is also a jar holding a spine.
Lion: "You know, I do feel a little braver..."
Panel 3
[until eventually...]
Beaver and Steve are nearing the Emerald Toaster, and the Toaster Creature is nearly at the door of it. There are Toaster Birds in the sky above the Emerald Toaster.
Steve points to the Toaster Creature.
Steve: "Come on Beaver, we've almost caught him!"
Panel 4
The view is now from inside the Emerald Toaster, which looks like a castle from inside. There are banners featuring four rectangles, two types. In the upper left and lower right are red rectangles with a tree on them. In the other corners are blue rectangles with toasters on them.
The Toaster Creature is bowing down, holding the bread slice forth, to what is likely the Toaster King, wearing a golden toaster on his head.
Toaster Creature: "My leige! The legends were true! I have found The Slice!"
Toaster King: "By the element! With this source of yeasty power in our hands the kingdom can finally flourish!"
Beaver: "Look Steve! Our simple slice of bread is bringing so much joy to these peaceful folk!"
Panel 5
A toastie maker tank CRASH!es through the wall. There is a green guy on the tank and a whole army of other green soldiers in the background. He has abruptness lines around his head. The days the throne was stood upon are gone, and the throne itself is smashed.
Green guy: "Surrender the Slice!"
The Toaster King has alarm lines above his crown.
Toaster King, holding the Slice: "Toastiemakerians! I should have expected this treachery! Guards!"
Panel 6
There is a sudden *BATTLE!* between the Toaster Folk and the Toastiemakerians, both sides equipped with tanks modelled after their respective kitchen appliances. Regular soldiers just have swords and shields. One of the two visible toastie maker tanks has two Toaster Folk soldiers smashed in it. One of them has their head sticking out, with shock lines pouring out of his head.
Beaver: "I'm sensing a little hostility here."
[To be contd.]
Fun Facts
- Steve gives the Robot a heart. The Robot looks a lot like Emotibot.
- Steve gives the Lion a backbone and some guts.
- Panels 1 and 2 seem connected by that tree between them.
- Beaver and Steve took the right (or left, for that matter) path.
- The Toaster Folk's king wears a golden toaster on his head.
- Emotibot's misunderstanding of emotions is represented in the Emotibot-looking-like Robot.
- The Robot and the Lion resemble the Tin Man and the... well, Lion, from The Wizard of Oz.

Medford, Ore. -- New numbers released this week by the Bureau of Labor Statistics found people who live in Medford make an average 11% less than the rest of the country
While the numbers were released this week, they reflect wages from May of 2013.
The average hourly wage in Medford was at $19.85, below the national of $22.33.
"It's a combination of lower wages and a lot of occupational categories," said Guy Tauer, a regional economist.
Tauer also says part of the reason Medford worker are paid less is because of the lack of jobs that have higher pay. They simply aren't located here.
"Companies tend to move where there's more training and education. And a greater pool of the workforce," Tauer said
On the contrary, there is a higher concentration of loggers, clergy's, and healthcare workers.
"It's not all a downside, we have some areas that are bright spots, if we look at our wages and employment."
While the average hourly wage maybe higher in places Portland or San Francisco, the cost of living in Medford is substantially lower, and in someways improves our quality of life.
"It's been referred to as a second paycheck that you get by living in a place where you don't have a 2 hour commute from where you live to where you work. And some of those issues folks in bigger cities have," Tauer Said.

Referring to this question, is there any information that can leave black holes? Are they causing a permanent information loss in our universe?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Astronomy Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for astronomers and astrophysicists. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Information cannot "leave" the black hole. There is no way (by our current framework of physics) that an entity inside the event horizon can send a signal out.
However, entropy can leave. The black hole has entropy proportional to its surface area, and this roughly corresponds to "the number of ways that black hole could have been created". The surface area decreases due to Hawking radiation, so it can release entropy back to the universe. Of course, the growth rate due to infalling mas is usually many orders of magnitude more than the shrinkage.

Looks like your video is private :( I've gone ahead and unpublished this for now so you can go in and edit the embed code.
Let me know if you have any questions!

One think I'd like to know though iw what exactly you call MDF ? As living in France I'm not really sure how it translates …
If you have any time for an answer that would be very nice of you.
If not, that's OK too…
check out this wikipedia article: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panneau_de_fibres_%C3%A0_densit%C3%A9_moyenne
hope that will help you!
Very nice of you to answer with a link.
I truly appreciate.
Have a good week end.
real life is always more interesting than virtual … even on down to earth instructables !!!…
I worked in the US cabinetmaking for a while and the guys in the shop all did it the same way too. In Ireland & the UK (and probably all of the EU) it is illegal to use table saw without both a riving knife and crown guard fitted. This means operations like grooving cannot be done on a table saw. There are other safer ways of doing those operations. The table saw is the most dangerous tool in the shop, it needs to be respected.
best wishes
(Any one bored that has a hydrolic press want to try it out? Id like to know the results.)
have a good day.
Does the "bow" flexes back a little bit once you have released it from the MDF or do you obtain exact the same shape?
Here is the pdf. Google is your friend.
Something to be aware of is that as the lamination gets thicker the ends of the new pieces will not line up, sort of a taper or scarf.
I would say "You need to make sure you have all your fingers".
(Please smile)
Good instructable, well explained.
