QWM/AccuWeigh Weighbridges
A portable weighbridge is being used by Dubbo City Council to ensure legal axle loadings are achieved before trucks leave the council's quarry. Accuweigh's portable weighbridge is very low profile using a drop centre design to minimise the height of the weighing decks which allows for shallow angle access ramps for easy truck access.As well as displaying the weight of short wheelbase trucks, the portable weighbridge also has the ability to display individual axle weights. This important feature only requires the truck to pause momentarily as each axle or axle group enters the weighing deck of the portable weighbridge. A digital weight indicator using large digits captures and displays the weight of each axle weight and then displays the total truck weight after the truck has exited the portable weighbridge. This portable weighbridge is 4m long x 2.5m wide using ramps 0.9m wide joined by removable struts to allow the portable weighbridge to be relocated with minimal effort.The industrial load cells used in this portable weighbridge are rated at 15t each with a total of four load cells used on each track section. The nominal weighing capacity is 30,000kg using 10kg increments. Accuweigh is Australia's largest industrial weighing company and has branches in all mainland states providing Australia wide coverage for portable weighbridges, axle weighers and weighbridges of all types.

Listen, don't tell anyone I said this, but sometimes the worst part of my job is talking to faculty members. Not all of them, of course, but some of them, the ones who've spent their entire lives working in academia, the ones who view the entire world as their classroom, the ones who think everyone else spends their time just waiting to hear them speak.
If you can't read between the lines there, I'm talking about the white guys.
I spoke with one of these guys earlier today, a guy with a theory about what happened last night, a theory that explains why Trump won. I observed that a lot of people have theories today, and he responded smoothly that, as a History professor, his theory was maybe worth a little bit more.
To tell you the truth, I was both looking forward to and dreading talking to this guy today. We've spoken many times about the election over the past year, and he, as a History professor, does indeed have some keen insights about political doings, even if his tendency is to express them in a way that I'm could generously describe as muddled, or ungenerously describe as designed to demonstrate his own intelligence rather than actually communicate. Interesting, to a point, but more interested in a receptive audience than in what someone else – maybe not everyone else, but probably me – thinks.
We spoke yesterday about the election, agreeing that Hillary winning was the only possible outcome. When I awoke this morning to the impossible, I thought back to a conversation we'd had over the summer, in July, about barbecues. Whose barbecue would I rather attend, he asked, one organized by Hillary Clinton? Or one organized by Donald Trump? Without hesitation, I responded "Hillary Clinton."
This, it turns out, was the wrong answer. Trump would be the better barbecue, you see, because "you don't know what he's going to do."
But Hillary, I argued, would be prepared for the barbecue. Hillary would make sure there would be adequate utensils, and napkins, and a crudites platter for nibbling while things cook on the grill. Hillary would have veggie burgers available, knowing some of her guests don't eat meat. Hillary Clinton's barbecue would definitely include watermelon, and beer, and games for the kids.
That Hillary Clinton would plan a barbecue that actually feeds her guests – including me – wasn't a strong enough argument to overcome the Trump-led spectacle, before the topic changed entirely to the racial aspects of watermelon, a conversation so reasonable for two white people to be having that I engineered an reason to excuse myself post-haste and returned to the desk. But I thought about the Trump-led barbecue for a while, because there was a flaw in the 'spectacle' argument, and as not a History professor, it took me a while to put my finger on it.
Eventually, I realized the flaw is that, actually, we did know what Trump would do. By that point, in July, Trump was entirely predictable. He would be his own true turd self, and while we may not be able to predict exactly how that would manifest, we knew it would be rude and vulgar and cruel, it would be entirely self-serving, and it would be filled with lies.
Of the many things I thought this morning, one of them was "Well, I guess [you] got [your] barbecue." Followed by the realization that he would be in at some point today and we would try to dissect what had gone so wrong. Well, he would offer his dissection, and I would offer mine.
So after his theory, I offered to share one of my own. One of the strange things about the results was that so many women – white women – had turned out for Trump, rather than Hillary. How could this have happened?
Well, he interrupted, that was a problem he'd always had with Bill Clinton, the accusations from women.
I did not point out that Bill Clinton was not running in this election. Also, it should be noted that at no point did I ever ask for whom he'd voted. Instead, I pointed out that many women had accused Trump.
They had?
Yes, I insisted, a touch incredulous. I couldn't tell if his disbelief was genuine or a misplaced pedagogical device.
It was genuine. He didn't know that.
But you heard the Access Hollywood recording?
Yes, of course he'd heard that.
Afterwards, many women came forward to detail his assaults. I believe the last count was 14.
He hadn't heard that.
It was in the news.
Question mark?
All over the news.
That, see, was the problem. He doesn't get the news in the way you or I do, as a passive consumer. He has to seek it out, search for it, effortfully follow up on stories. This one, he missed.
He did not seem concerned about this. It seemed unfortunate, but, obviously, unavoidable.
MAYBE, I did not scream in his face, but MAYBE PART OF THE REASON TRUMP WON IS BECAUSE YOU, AN EDUCATED WHITE MAN, DID NOT THINK HIS ASSAULTING 14 WOMEN WAS A STORY WORTH FOLLOWING UP ON.
And this is the problem I've had with today. It's not the students in the Trump tee shirts that I have grudgingly held doors for, or the people with whom I strongly disagree. It is discovering that people – because it's not just him; he came in to the library at the end of my long day of seething at the meme from the Bernie Bros – still in a snit they didn't get the revolution that conveniently popped up right in front of them and that they'd fought so hard for for all of 5 months and so clearly deserved; the meme stating that had Hillary not rigged the primary, Bernie could have won last night, tone deaf to the implication that women can only win by cheating, but also, somehow believing that this woman, who's so clearly guilty of something that she's been investigated non-stop for nearly 2 decades, and yet so wily that the charges never stick; that this grasping, devious woman would rig a primary and then somehow leave the general election to chance? Somehow, her long streak of underhanded wizardry fails just when she needs it the most, all so they can absolve themselves from the results that we all are responsible for, that we all have to live with, except them less than everyone else. This, from people I know, people I assumed were on my side, they have sold me out, don't care at all that I might now starve at a barbecue – while others face so much worse – while they sit back, having been right all along, and enjoy the spectacle. The hardest part of today is coming to terms with the fact that it is not just the other side that lacks compassion; it is our team, too.
Have you read the Sandman graphic novels? I read them repeatedly in the '90s; I had a series of roommates back then who were fans, and it seemed like a good idea to re-read them every time they appeared on our communal bookshelf. If you haven't read them, I would cautiously recommend them; I certainly enjoyed them at the time – hence all the re-reading, and talking about them today – but I don't know if they offer the same appeal to a more seasoned adult as they would to someone for whom the concept of adulthood having relevance in their own life is a bit fresher.
ANYway, so one of these graphic novels starts out, as I recall, in a club. I believe this is the storyline wherein Delirium decides to find her missing sibling, a lumberjack-looking fellow whose specific Endless identity I don't actually remember. But this quest of Delirium's ends up leading to Dream's killing Orpheus, much to the delight of Desire, whose antipathy for Dream was well-established but never satisfactorily explained, in my opinion, except that every story needs a bad guy and if you've already cast Death as the cool older sister in your mopey family of goths, it would then naturally fall to Desire to be the bad one since, although we hadn't fully defined the concept of thirst back then, it's never been cool to want something or to be something.
But before we get to that, we start out in a club. Delirium, despite her, uh, delirium, recognizing that she maybe shouldn't undertake this quest all on her own, follows her guide, the Borgol Rantipole, a lesser entity that Dream had assigned to provide her company in an earlier issue and herein appears as a hovering fish on a string, to a club to see if she can enlist Desire's assistance in finding their missing brother. Delirium, it seems, having once been Delight, also spent a brief spell as Dumbassery, since it's well established that Desire serves only shis own ends. Desire obviously rejects Delirium's offer, probably while Despair oozily lumps nearby, upset that nobody wanted to include her.
But before being rejected by Desire, Delirium has to find hirm first, and so it is that we find ourselves momentarily with a human character in the club. This, presumably, is not too long after the death of Freddie Mercury, as the human, who I don't believe is named, is telling his companion – we, the readers – that when he told another person in his acquaintance, who definitely does have a name but I don't remember what so let's just call him Donald, about Freddie's death, Donald glibly replied "Well, another one bites the dust, eh?" To which Human responded "Donald, when God put teeth in your mouth, he ruined a perfectly good asshole."
And that, dear readers, is why, while I may have some of the details of that Sandman storyline wrong, whenever I see a picture of Donald Trump with his mouth open, all I can think is "You know, Donald, when God put teeth in your mouth, he ruined a perfectly good asshole."
Lex Luthor casts his vote
Posted July 24, 2016on:
(I know, you're probably thinking "What the hell is this?" Well, for a variety of uninteresting reasons I found myself thinking about a certain cartoonish, megalomaniacal, tonsorially-challenged redhead, and I wondered what thoughts Lex Luthor might have on the subject. Spoiler alert: he is not a fan.)
Lex Luthor put down the newspaper and wrapped both hands around his mug. Eyes closed, he let out a sigh, knowing that such an action was pointless. And it was. Nothing had changed when he opened his eyes; he sighed again.
Look at him, this buffoon! Like everyone in Metropolish, Lex had been confronted with this angry image for months, heard his nattering through all manner of devices. Evin if you didn't want to listen to him, he was obsessively replayed by every media outlet, eager to catalog the day's gaffes and offenses.
Lex had grown tired of him. Not right away – at first, he thought they could be allies. Believing his goals, his inevitable dominance could only be bolstered by this self-proclaimed Captain of Industry. Believing he'd found another leader like himself, a man led by vision, whose wealth was no more than a by-product of achieving their goals. Yes, together they would do great things – so Lex thought.
Yet how quickly this huckster revealed himself! Of course, the truth had been there all along; Lex was angry that he too had taken so long to see past the bluster. But what had initially passed for similarities were quickly exposed as mere trapping. The finely tailored suits they both wore, that were so fitted to Lex it as though they were drawn on him, looked cheap despite their probable cost, hanging awkward and unflattering on his puffy frame. The keen business mind was nothing of the sort, just shouts of success where everyone could plainly see failure. Worse, what meager success he had achieved was not his own, but just his name hastily plastered over someone else's work.
Maybe some of his own inventions hadn't succeeded in the way he'd hoped, but he, Lex, was the chief innovator at Luthorcorp! His scientists and engineers carried out his vision, as they should have; he didn't need to take credit for someone else's work.
But the hair – that had mislead him. Lex knew, always, that it wasn't good. He didn't admire it, but he was jealous. If not for that long ago incident in the lab, Lex would still have his own red hair. Although, he surely would have allowed his own to thin with dignity, if it must – Nature acted without malice. Unlike Superboy.
So many times Lex had thought back to that day – he'd never believed Superboy's claims that it had been an accident – and what his life would have been like if not for the Kryptonian's carelessness. All the praise heaped on Superman would fall on him. He would be embraced by a loving public. He'd enjoy a better reputation in the press, that was for sure; Clark Kent would be his mouthpiece too, not just Superman's, and would never have reason to launch his relentless, and strangely personal, campaign against Lex and Luthorcorps.
For years Lex had believed this, but now, suddenly, another possibility presented itself. Without Superman to strive against, might he, Lex, have become no better than this ridiculous tycoon who was all over the news for months? Without the very real threat posed by the son of Krypton (why was he the only one to see it?) could Lex have turned into this fearful tyrant? Lex shuddered at the thought of himself rambling on about a wall. Mere humans posing a threat? Bah! No, the only alien who should be illegal in Metropolis was Superman.
Fate had brought Superboy to his lab on that day, to provide the adversary Lex deserved; he understood that now. His path in life was always to protect the people of Metropolis; for years, that had meant from Superman, but now, here, there was a more immediate threat. And not just to the people he loved – because Lex did indeed love the people of Metropolis; why else would he fight so hard for them? – but to himself. His own wealth would be protected under such a Miser-in-Chief, of course, but the celebration of ignorance this man was whipping into a frenzy; well, it would turn people against scientists like Lex and their innovations faster than Superman ever could.
He needed to be stopped, that was clear. But how? It was too late to run himself; besides, having already been president, he was probably ineligible to run again. He could surely, between now and the election, develop something to tally the votes however he saw fit. But Lex didn't want there to be any whiff of impropriety, nothing that might support the delusions and paranoia that, incredibly, only seemed to feed the mania swirling around this man like flies on a corpse.
No, what he needed was for everyone to see what Lex saw, for him to be so exposed that even those who'd cravenly offered their support, tepidly claiming this was the best of a bad situation, would have to say No – no, we can do better than this. It needed to happen before the election, so he would never get the votes in the first place. And Lex knew, all to well, there was one surefire way to get everyone – everyone – on Earth to turn against a business man. He picked up his phone and made a call.
"Hello, Daily Planet? Put me through to Clark Kent. I need him to deliver a message to Superman – I have a proposition for him."
Why I hate Milan Kundera
Posted June 7, 2016on:
The most frustrating thing about aging right now is how much it makes me think of Milan Kundera. I spent a good solid chunk of the '90s, maybe '93 through '99 – just absolutely hating that guy. It was so bad that I was planning to write abook about it, entitled "Why I hate Milan Kundera," with the first chapter being "Because He Sucks." It's a compelling argument, I know, which made it all the more astonishing that it should need to be made in the first place. Milan Kundera clearly sucks, so why was he so popular?
At least in part, the answer to that is because everyone's first exposure to Kundera was via a charming turn by a young Daniel Day Lewis in the film version of The Unbearable Lightness of Being. In a larger sense, though, the two halves of the equation are more intertwined, and the thing that makes him so popular is the very reason that he sucks so bad, and that reason is the clear and incredible contempt he has for his female characters.
This is not simply an issue of an author writing unlikable characters. While I generally prefer to like the characters I read about, in much the same way I prefer to spend time with people whose company I enjoy, it's not 100% necessary. I understand unlikable characters have their time and place; holidays, for example, or other family gatherings. But the series of embarrassing or tragic calamities that befall so many of his female characters ends up having no lasting impact on the story. So a pregnant nurse accidentally takes a poison pill – the real surprise is that the crabby old man wasn't lying all those years about carrying a suicide pill with him at all times. Or the woman, despondent over an unworthy man, who attempts to end her own life but instead takes a handful of laxatives and suffers not just the expected bathroom embarrassments while her uninterested beloved stands on the other side of the door, she, desperate to flee her humiliation, must then run out of the bathroom without pulling her stockings all the way up, causing her to trip so severely that she falls face forward on the lawn, exposing her bare ass to the world.
Now, I have not had occasion to have first-hand experience of the stockings that could be gotten under Communism, but from decades of Democracy stockings I do know both that even in an intestinal emergency they don't take that long to pull up, and that if you are in such a rush that you don't pull your stockings all the way up, that will present such a serious impediment to travel that you will not get far enough out of the bathroom to run outside, trip, and expose your bare ass to the world.
Such are the calamities that befall young women in Kundera's novels. Should a female character manage to avoid both accidentally being poisoned and accidentally not poisoning herself, she can still in her old age look forward to being ridiculed by Kundera for having aged. And in this case, instead of acting through his characters or the role of the omniscient narrator, in Immortality (or maybe it's Identity; I read all of those books such a long time ago), Kundera inserts himself directly into the story as Milan Kundera, sitting poolside as an older woman climbs out of the water, pausing in her post-pool toweling off to wave girlishly at someone.
She's probably not waving at Kundera; even if she doesn't know him, she can probably tell he's a dick. But Kundera was there to catch the wave and can't help but notice the incongruity of the girlishness of the act with the advanced aged of the actor, and is stunned to be witness to this older woman not knowing that she's not beautiful anymore. Which, honestly, shouldn't be such a terrible surprise to him – or maybe it should, because, despite his many years, he seems to have no awareness that he himself is a terrible prick. Regardless, he is so amazed by it that he goes on to repeat that this woman is no longer beautiful at least 1,000 times on just that one page if I'm recalling correctly; as I said, I read it a long time ago, so it may have been more.
This has always been my problem with Kundera – is that it's impossible to believe that the extremely negative portrayal of women in his works is due to anything but him. Which is always the case with authors, that everything that happens is due to them, but the purposelessness of the malice directed at his females, that doesn't add to the story, that doesn't provide any commentary on the role of women in society, Communist or otherwise, or on the difficult and changing relationships between women and men; by the process of elimination, we can only conclude that the only purpose women serve is to show how much Milan Kundera does not like women.
And that, in my opinion, is what accounts for the disproportionate popularity of his books here in these United States. Writing as he was behind the Iron Curtain, Kundera provided assurance that, should American have lost the Cold War and been crushed under the heel of oppressive equality, men would still have plenty of opportunities to act like immature and terrified little prats toward women, benefiting from their accidental and completely avoidable deaths, or causing them disgraceful embarrassment simply for not being their ideal. So, that we may have won the Cold War, in that we just waited while the other side collapsed under its own weight, we have the comfort of knowing that, even if we had failed (or they didn't), the State would have begun to do terrible things to those who acted against its interest, but crimes against women would still not be considered crimes against the state and could therefore proceed unobstructed, in the usual fashion.
Eventually, in '99, I let go of my plans to take down Milan Kundera. Partially because writing a book would have meant learning a lot more about Milan Kundera than that I hated him. Partially because "because he sucks," is a lot harder to turn into a whole book than you might think (although, at this point, you may have an inkling). Mostly, it was because I realized that when I gave up trying to convince the whole world that Kundera was terrible, I would not have to subject myself to him anymore.
And so I put his books down. I still remember closing that last one – Immortality, or possibly Slowness – on my desk at work. Under the bright florescence my coworker Matt asked "What are you reading?" And I replied, with a calm smile and a pleasant shake of my head "Nothing," certain that the moment would be as cinematic in my memory as it was in reality. Eventually, I got rid of the books that I'd been lugging around from house to house; physically and mentally, I left Kundera behind.
And so I lived, happily ever after for 15 years without thinking of Milan Kundera at all. But here we are together now, talking about him which means, obviously, that has ended. Not because of his new book, although it's fitting that Kundera, too, has forgotten that he's not desirable anymore. But a year ago, as I stood in the Grove with my brother and sister on a sunny spring day that wasn't as warm as it should have been. It was the first time we were all together in more than a decade too, and we stood in this crowded outdoor shopping complex overrun by tourists, like us, who, like us, had come hoping to spy a celebrity and who wouldn't notice us anything other than a group, like them, of middle-aged tourists, standing around and squinting into the sun.
It was sad in that moment to realize that I too was a part of the anonymous throng of overweight Americans, that, until that moment, I'd been living like Kundera's foolish old woman at the pool, living on as though I had value despite the cruel march of time. Perhaps somewhere in that crowd at the Grove there was a writer witnessing that moment who would be so inspired by the momentary despair that they, too, would use it as the springboard for an unrelated story that reinforces for the world what a cock they truly are.
At the same time, from the viewpoint of Kundera's ridiculous old woman, I understood – in a way Kundera could not – that she wasn't so ridiculous after all. She may not have been beautiful in the moment Kundera hoped to preserve (an observation which is entirely suspect because why would anyone trust Milan Kundera on these things?) but even he himself can recognize that she had been beautiful at one point. This may not be valuable in his opinion, but it is not merely the shadow of beauty that persists. Her beauty (which, it should also be noted, is not her most important quality, but again, we are limited by Kundera's framework) may no longer be that of youth, but it continues to be visible for the people who know her. The woman herself, other people, people who are not assholes; rather than lamenting its absence, they still see her beauty, made all the more remarkable that it can still be seen despite her foolish old face.
Too, there are the people of the woman's life who don't know she is no longer beautiful,those who knew her before the moment Kundera felt was so important to preserve. The moments they witnessed – of beauty of otherwise – also endure, as much as Kundera's moment, if not more because they are not insufferable twats, most likely. And, even if they are, the version of them that the old woman knew still exists, as she remembers a place where she was beautiful in the company of someone sufferably charming; her eyes alight with mischief while he stands up straighter and wonders if in the future they'll still be together. Those two people, who managed to be lively even in the face of Communism, will continue to matter as long as anyone continues to think of them, in the present as a fond recollection or a promise of a future that will never be realized.
But the most important thing – the MOST important thing I have to occasionally remind myself about that day in the Grove, when I notice my eyelashes have vanished, or as I wait at an intersection for a beautifully upright horse to trot past while I sit in the car feeling like a melting candle, is not just that, even if only in photos or on Facebook, I will always be young enough to enjoy the sun and believe it will always be shining on me; that my brother will always have a dopey grin and a bowl haircut even as his crew cut becomes saltier; that our sister will always be taller than us because she's older, and her feathered bangs will never go out of style. The MOST IMPORTANT thing to remember is that Milan Kundera will always, ALWAYS be a dick.
Blog update: new blog post!
Posted April 20, 2016on:
Fear not: this is not the usual long-winded post about nothing in particular, although there will obviously be more of those to come in the future, sporadically though they may.
Instead, a housekeeping note: I noticed recently that the Fun With Song Lyrics posts seem to be taking over here. And, while I enjoy those quite a bit, it seems like maybe not the sort of content the 3 of your signed up for when you subscribed to this blog. So I've decided to branch those out into their very own blog – funwithsonglyrics.wordpress.com, which you can choose to subscribe to or not in whatever fashion you choose.
To get with the times, there's even a twitter account – @funwithlyrics – you can follow for updates, or send me requests if there's a song you desperately want me ruin for you. In a couple of years, there will probably be an Instagram presence, and maybe a while after that, I'll look into Periscope. Oh, and Reddit! Because that I'm sure will always be a thing. Just like blogging.
Anyway, there's new content there right now – a close look at the weirdly bleak depiction of love in The Power of Love, by Huey Lewis and the News.
One other housekeeping note, which goes for that blog and this one too: if you get the content sent to you in some fashion – like a reader or something – I'd appreciate it if you could still at least click over to the actual site so I know someone besides me is reading this. I know I'll always be my own biggest fan, but it would be nice to know that someone else is out there too.
Okay! Back to your Tuesday. Wait – Wednesday; back to your Wednesday.

1. "Money for Nothing," by Dire Straits – Particularly in this time when even the president would take the time to assure gay youths that it gets better, that a song that repeats the phrase "little fa**o*" would reach number 1 and also win a Grammy is shocking. Even more amazing, it still doesn't get bleeped when it gets played right in the middle of the day and anyone could hear it while waiting for the dentist.
2. "Date Rape," by Sublime – I feel like there's like a 95% chance this is song is a deliberate mockery, but it's still very upsetting to see the title displayed on my dashboard when it comes up on the satellite radio. That may sound like a #firstworldproblem, but I am 100% sure there are people who don't understand this song is not in favor of date rape. And while those people are certainly idiots, they're also date rapists; I don't need to hear from them, even by unintentional proxy, when I'm on my way to the mall. Or anywhere, actually; the destination is not the problem here.
3. "Smack My Bitch Up," by Prodigy – Another song whose title I don't like to see. But also, literally the only lyrics in this song are "Change my pitch up / smack my bitch up". This could just as easily have been an instrumental, and it would have lost nothing; alas, it also wouldn't be any better. This is the work of a prodigy? No, sir. No.
4. "Young Girl," by Gary Puckett and the Union Gap –
"Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line.
You better run, girl.
You're much too young, girl."
Here's an idea, creepy predator: how about you go and get yourself chemically castrated, and then write a fun little ditty about that?
5. "Half-breed," by Cher – Cher. Come on. This is not your best work.
I watched season 2 of Marvel's Agent Carter, and now you have to hear about it
Posted March 6, 2016on:
For those who didn't watch (and judging by the ratings, that's just about everyone), Marvel's Agent Carter is the story of Margaret Carter, aka Peggy, who, although she once dated the man who would become Captain America, does not quite live in the world of superheroes. Instead, she's a modern '50s gal-slash-spy whose savvy and tough regularly win the day.
In season 1, Peggy thwarted some plans involving Russian operatives undercover in the U.S., cracking wise and a few skulls all while wearing a sensible pantsuit, unless she was under cover at some fancy gala; never underestimate the nefarious potential of formal events. Her success in the field, however, was not enough for her colleagues back in the office to trust her fully, in part because she was British but mostly because they were all males and it was the '50s and competent spy was not regarded as an acceptable career path for a lady. Yet, Peggy knows her worth and continues to fight for truth, justice, and the American way, in spite of the lack of respect and recognition from the men around her.
Unfortunately, season 2, which wrapped on Tuesday, was missing a lot of the spunk and verve that made season 1 such a delight. In the second season, Peggy relocated to Los Angeles to meet up with a few other members of her team that had also coincidentally relocated to the west coast. Peggy's main office antagonist from season 1 – Jack Thomas – did not make the transition, leaving Peggy solely with a team of men who recognized her leadership and deferred to her judgement.
Which shouldn't have been a problem, but, weirdly, the lack of sexism was a running disappointment throughout the season. I understand that the writers might have wanted to tell a different story than season 1, but, as a viewer, watching a woman fight monsters or secret KGB assassins is perfectly fine, but seeing that same woman fight again and again the everyday spectre of sexism – a very real threat we still face, lo these 60 years later -without feeling diminished or the need to prove herself, all the while wearing comfortable shoes? That is appointment viewing. Certainly, the long overdue recognition was nice to see, but the occasional appearance of Jack Thomas, who popped up from time to time to needle Peggy and flaunt his special brand of untrustworthy smarm, served mostly to highlight how vital that tension had been to the first season.
With Peggy getting along well with everyone at work – about which, more later – the burden of conflict for the season fell almost entirely on the villain, and here, too, this season was inferior to the first. Whitney Frost, a moderately famous actress and brilliant yet unappreciated scientist, absorbs a deadly otherworldly substance during an accident in a lab. The substance, Zero Matter, disfigures her in the most artful fashion, and imbues her with the terrific power to, uh. . .absorb more Zero Matter, and talk about how powerful it makes her? I mean, she does also have the ability to absorb actual matter from time to time, which leads her to kill a number of people who betray her as well as a bunch of rats that did nothing other than be be rodents, which was kind of sad.
But, despite all Whitney's blathering, it seems that the main benefit of absorbing Zero Matter is that it gives her the capacity to absorb more Zero Matter; apart from that, it's no more impressive than if she were harming people with more run-of-the-mill weapons. If anything, it's less threatening, because the Zero Matter occasionally does not do what Whitney expected. Which is frustrating for her, but doesn't have any kind of impact on the story because Zero Matter is a brand-new substance in the world and not well-understood by anyone, character or writer, is seems; without any definition, there's nothing surprising about what Zero Matter does, since we have no expectation that it will do anything other than what is convenient for the story. Can Whitney absorb people's matter from many feet away? Sure, but not when Peggy and Jarvis are escaping from her.
Poorly as Whitney compares to the season 1 threat in theory, it becomes even more starkly contrasted when Dottie Underwood herself actually arrives for a few episodes to show Whitney how it's done. Whitney supposedly gets the upper hand in the scene they share, but Dottie later remains undaunted in her strange, non-romantic flirtation with Peggy, and Dottie is the one who escapes by the end of the episode. But, while the visit from Dottie makes Whitney a little less impressive, what it really throws into relief is how much this show would benefit if Peggy were working with a few of these strong, capable women, instead of against them.
There are two women on Peggy's side, although they are unfortunately tangential to the action. Rose, an agent at the SSR who poses as a secretary in the headquarter's false front, is called into service when the SSR is infiltrated and there isn't anyone else they can trust. Rose is as capable as Peggy, albeit more comic-relief; it's unfortunate she's only recruited for the mission as a last resort. The other is Ana Jarvis, the inconsistently accented wife of Mr. Jarvis, who seems to serve no other function but to be fully supportive of her husband's platonic relationship with Peggy, and then get shot, and then continue to be supportive. Ana appears to have an interesting back story, with her shifting accents and ready consumption of wine, so it's a shame she isn't given more to do.
The sororal relationships might suffer but the show does focus on the romantic ones, and here Whitney Frost does have the more compelling plot. Whitney gets involved with Ken Marino (played by character actor Ken Marino) after killing her husband, which, to be fair, was mostly in self-defense; repulsed by Whitney's artful disfigurement and her Zero Matter absorption skills, her husband enlists the shadowy cabal behind his run for government to stop her. They neither succeed nor survive, freeing Whitney to turn to Ken Marino, an old boyfriend who never stopped loving her. So much so that he encourages her to flaunt her artful disfigurement – to that point, hidden neatly behind a well-placed lock of hair – to let the world see who she really is. It's an unexpectedly touching seen, particularly given the ridiculouslness of the set-up, which is a credit to the actors. Wynn Everett as Whitney is remarkably vulnerable at this support, and her gratitude at finally being accepted for who she is is both heart-warming and heart -breaking. Ken Marino, as Ken Marino, plays his devotion to Whitney straight; there are no jokes in his feelings. For that brief moment, we in the audience genuinely hope those two will make it.
They don't, though, because they're villains. But still, even the failure of their romance is more involving than Peggy's who, sadly, is reduced to a rather conventional love triangle. It seems that, if Peggy is getting along with all her male coworkers, the only possible story is for her to have to choose between two potential romantic partners. Which, as much as I enjoy when the people inside the television succumb to their feelings to finally Do Kissing, due to the completely unnecessary dragging out of this plot it makes Peggy's happy ending for the season that she finally picked a man. And, I mean, it was a good kiss: I was almost afraid for the fellow's face, having to hold up under the onslaught of her feelings. But Peggy also completed her mission; she literally saved the world, along with a team of people who recognized her leadership and would follow her anywhere; it doesn't seem like two grown-ups kissing should be equally momentous.
Even though Whitney Frost was captured and Peggy got her man, season 2 still ended on a cliff hanger. Due to poor ratings and a change in leadership over at ABC, prospects for season 3 don't look great. Which is unfortunate; although this season was uneven at best, Marvel's Agent Carter is a fun program with a game and capable cast, and, as the first season demonstrated, does know how to tell a good story. If there is a third season – and I hope there is one – I hope they can course-correct. I like Peggy Carter, and I'd like to see more of what she's capable of.

Eighth -placed Hull are best at 4-5 with Paddy Power, although given how inconsistent the two sides have been this term it is no surprise to see bookmakers' opinions divided. Ladbrokes are as short as 8-13 about Hull, while the Bulls, who start the match in second place, vary from evens, also with Paddy Power, to 11-8 with Coral.
The key to the match may be the absence from the Bulls' line-up of free-scoring

Heading off on hols soon?
Here's how you can avoid a nasty debit card bill - Sinead Ryan
If we enjoyed the recent sunny weather all the time, none of us would ever need to go anywhere else, but sadly it's unreliable and we want constant sunshine on our holidays.
With many now booked and paid for, thoughts will turn to other aspects such as paying for stuff while we're away.
If you're travelling within the Eurozone, purchases on debit and credit cards are straightforward and charge free.
In other words, paying for a restaurant meal will simply go through as a transaction in exactly the same way as it does here. With the introduction of the Visa debit system replacing the old Laser card, there's hardly anywhere left that won't accept your card. But it's a different matter when you use it to withdraw cash at an ATM or are travelling farther afield. This week I'm looking at currencies and charges and helping you to avoid coming home to a bill for bank fees.
Thanks to the ECB's quantitative easing \ programme and Greek crisis, the euro has slumped in value, especially against key currencies such as sterling and the US dollar. This day last summer, €100 would have bought you- $135 or £79.78; now it's just $109.52 or £70.67. That means your purchasing power is far less.
Add to that the huge fees banks (locally and at home) charge you to use their services and you could quickly find yourself over-budget. Withdrawing cash abroad can cost several euro each time, even in Eurozone countries, as local banks can charge for the service even if yours does not.
Using your credit card to do it is even more expensive, and you'll pay much higher interest rates than for purchases, so avoid that. In the States, for example, some credit cards charge up to 4.25pc of the amount withdrawn on top of currency exchange fees.
Some have partner banks, which cuts costs. For example, if you're an Ulster Bank customer, using RBS/ NatWest ATMs in the UK will avoid transaction fees, but you'll pay 2pc otherwise (min €3, max €12), according to Bonkers.ie.
AIB, Bank of Ireland and PTSB also charge for sterling withdrawals (2.5pc to 3.5pc). In AIB's case it's uncapped, while the others are up to €11.43 per withdrawal. Ouch!
Bringing cash can be unsafe, but best to withdraw it in large enough sums to last you a few days at least.
Another option outside the Eurozone is to buy an FX card from An Post. This is great for people who don't have (or don't want to bring) a credit card.
It's a pre-loaded Mastercard with its own PIN number and not linked to your bank in any way.
It offers commission-free, charge-free transactions in US, Canadian and Australian dollars and sterling, and is bought over the counter in main post offices. There are charges for withdrawing at ATMs, but they're lower than banks'. You won't tip into debt because you're only spending your own money on it.
An Post also has commission-free foreign exchange, but its rates tend to be lower than banks, so shop around before buying cash.
For senior citizens, AIB and Bank of Ireland offer commission-free exchange up to €2,000, as does ICE foreign exchange in Dublin airport.

The Pearl Manuscript (British Library MS Cotton Nero A.x) is the sole source for the poems 'Pearl', 'Cleanness', 'Patience' and 'Sir Gawain and the Green Knight' and one of the most important texts in English literature. The unassuming appearance of the Pearl Manuscript belies its incalculable importance to our knowledge of English literature.
The Pearl Manuscript: Charming Full-Page Miniatures for an Excellent Content
Modest in format, written in a small but distinctive hand and decorated with a series of charming if unaccomplished full-page illustrations, the manuscript displays none of the gaudy grandeur of the great illuminated books in the celebrated royal and ducal collections.
Instead, it exudes a quiet authority more suited to private study and reflection. In this respect it is, perhaps, curiously appropriate that these pages represent the sole extant source of four poems – two of them undisputed masterpieces of early English literature – which bear witness to a remarkable flowering of literary creativity in the late fourteenth century.
British Library MS Cotton Nero A.x survived near-destruction and long oblivion before undergoing a belated resurrection and rise to prominence.
Like the equally famous manuscript of Beowulf, the Pearl Manuscript narrowly escaped the fire which in 1731 ravaged the library bequeathed to the nation by the antiquarian Robert Cotton (1571–1631) and resulted in the permanent loss of a huge quantity of medieval writing.
Yet it remained largely unnoticed until 1839, when its most famous poem, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, was edited and published alongside a number of other Gawain romances, followed a quarter of a century later by Pearl, Cleanness and Patience – which appeared as the first volume issued by the newly created Early English Text Society.
First Poem: Pearl
The manuscript is informally named for the first work it contains: Pearl is a complex allegorical poem which recounts the vision of a bereaved father, who falls asleep in a garden and is spirited off to the Terrestrial Paradise; here he engages in dialogue with a beautiful maiden who answers his questions with Christian doctrine and ultimately reveals the New Jerusalem to him.
The sophisticated rhyme scheme and system of alliteration deployed in the poem, and the multi-layered symbolism of its central image – the 'pearl' ostensibly stands for the narrator's dead child, but in the course of the dialogue acquires spiritual and doctrinal significances which defy simplistic interpretation – confirm this as a literary work of the highest order.
Second Poem: Cleanness
Pearl is followed by two imaginative retellings of biblical stories. Cleanness is a didactic poem which focuses on three well-known episodes from the Old Testament – the Flood, Sodom and Gomorrah, and Belshazzar's Feast – in an exploration of the notion of 'cleanness' as the state to which humankind must aspire for salvation.
Though it shares an obvious affinity with the homily form, Cleanness possesses a narrative drive and poetical sophistication which elevate it far above a mere literary sermon.
Third Poem: Patience
It is followed by Patience, which similarly concentrates on a central, abstract idea – 'patience' here denoting acceptance of misfortune and the exercise of self-restraint – in a staggeringly original reworking of the tale of Jonah and the Whale.
The concision and simplicity of the biblical narrative give way to an expansive treatment which is by turns terrifying and comic, and includes an entertaining and wholly original sixty-line description of Jonah in the Whale's belly.
Fourth Poem: Sir Gawain and the Green Knight
Cotton Nero A.x concludes with its most famous work, one whose unchallenged status as an early English masterpiece makes the manuscript's long obscurity seem unfathomable to readers today.
The tale of Sir Gawain's acceptance of the Green Knight's challenge – to behead him, on condition that he submits to the same fate a year and a day later – and his subsequent journey, in which his adherence to the chivalric code is sternly tested, is familiar to readers across the world, through the celebrated editions and translations of J.R.R. Tolkien and Simon Armitage among others, as well as numerous adaptations for film, television and opera.
The poem's seamless combination of serious moral themes, national mythology and unforgettable characterization – the Green Knight himself is at once terrifying and sympathetic, yet ultimately resistant to interpretation – have made Sir Gawain and the Green Knight one of the best known of all Arthurian romances.
An elusive author: the "Pearl Poet"
The formal characteristics shared by the four poems contained in Cotton Nero A.x, such as versification and use of alliteration, and their deeper thematic qualities – most remarkably, the way in which they take a central, abstract idea or image and explore it with subtlety and intensity – have led to a broad consensus that these works were composed by a single, anonymous author, generally referred to as the 'Pearl poet' or 'Gawain poet'.
His identity has been the subject of extensive scholarly debate: the manuscript is written in a West Midlands dialect which may reveal as much about the scribe as it does the author, while competing theories locate him in London or Cheshire, and argue for English or Scottish origins.
The engaging naivety of the twelve illustrations in the manuscript has led some scholars to suggest that the author is also the artist. All that can be stated with certainty is that he wrote in the last third of the fourteenth century, a period of intense poetic activity which coincided with the reign of Richard II (1377–99).
The rest must remain, for the present at least, a tantalizing mystery.

The state government has finally realised that one size doesn't fit all. After finding that its developmental schemes are not percolating to the grass roots, the government has now embarked upon micro-planning, which is a concept involving localised planning, suiting local needs. In a unique move, the government is all set to customise its schemes according to the needs of 125 most poorly-developed talukas in the state.
These include talukas from Thane, Gadchiroli, Chandrapur, Gondia, Nashik among others. The government has now embarked on a drive to create the country's first taluka-level human development index (HDI) report.
So far, government schemes have focused on being implemented across these areas, paying little attention to the special needs of any region.
Hence, the HDI report will draw conclusions regarding each taluka's HDI, which is a measurement of the overall development that citizens have made, especially on social indices.
"We are now looking at the HDI report's findings and have told the Yashwantrao Chavan Academy of Development Administration (YASHADA) to audit the current schemes' workings and co-relate the data. We will then increase the efficiency and sharpness of the schemes we run. It is crucial that we ensure more people benefit from them," said state finance minister Sudhir Mungantiwar.
The government implements 12 schemes in these areas. These are largely in three categories, which are related to education, health and childcare, and income schemes.
The schemes include providing solar lights for schools in areas with no power, ensuring transportation of children to nearest schools, proper health check-ups by pregnant women as well as providing vocational training to women.
However, from implementing all schemes for all regions, the government now wants to ascertain how to spend its monies more effectively. It wants to implement limited schemes, but those which are more needed for the areas. It also plans to add more schemes to the existing lot.
Officials said this customisation was the reason behind preparing a taluka-wise HDI report.

God spoke to Bill Vincent and said, There is a battle command I want to release in your midst. The battle command is against demonic spirits. Bill really believes that there are really a lot of demonic spirits in the church. A lot of demonic spirits come through in a lot of things that we deal with. The curse of Adam and Eve is still in full operation in the earth. It would be foolish for us to think that we have no sin in our hearts and lives. We are all stuck with having to deal with real demonic spirits. None of us can say otherwise. Many say, I don't have anything to deal with. I don't need to deal with things of this world. That's never going to be true. When we are not dealing with things, then something is wrong. We must be going the wrong direction or something. It has been estimated that 25% of the miracles that Jesus performed were casting out demons out of people. Like it or not, we have been born in a war zone. When you are born again, you are born into a war zone. You have to realize, just because of the day Adam and Eve fell, we have been born into a war zone to have to deal with spiritual wickedness in high places. Whether there is a snake still going about, talking about the devil. He is still trying to tempt and just destroy us and sway us off the path that we are supposed to be on. Not only are we all stuck to have to battle with people who have chosen, and here is what Bill means by this, they have chosen by their own free will to live a life on the dark side.

"Very informative....it proved I have much to learn"
This was a very informative book on demon possession and oppression. It's not from theory and rehashed from other authors but written and made into an audiobook by someone that has been used in over a thousand personal deliverances.
Read this to learn
* What oppression looks like and what happens too someone who is being attacked from outside the mind
* What possession looks like when a demon is inside.
* The sober warnings every person should know before trying to set people free
* The attitude of love you need to have to minister to people who are effected by demons
* The fact that a demon made me do it isn't the full story or an excuse for people
Bill shares with honesty and transparency what it is like to work as a deliverance professional and the personal cost his ministry suffered in support as he tried to teach the subject. The book is full of stories and is very entertaining and worth the purchase price

Sinopec Profit Triples as Refining Outweighs Oil's PlungeBloomberg News
Refining business benefits from China's $40/bbl price floor
Oil, gas output drops to 2.7%; refining output falls 2.4%
China Petroleum & Chemical Corp., Asia's biggest refiner, posted a threefold increase in profit as the drop in oil prices was outweighed by the benefit of improved refining margins.
Net income at the Beijing-based company known as Sinopec rose to 6.66 billion yuan ($1.03 billion), compared with 2.17 billion yuan a year ago, according to a statement to the Hong Kong stock exchange Thursday.
China announced in January that fuel prices wouldn't be adjusted when oil falls below $40 a barrel in an attempt to support the domestic energy industry and curb pollution. The policy boosted domestic refining margins during the first quarter to $16 a barrel, a 45 percent increase from the same period a year earlier, according to researcher ICIS China. The country's product exports slipped in the first two months as it became more profitable to sell fuels at home.
"Sinopec benefited a lot in the first quarter from very low crude prices and the fuel price floor set by the government," Li Li, an analyst with ICIS China, said by phone from Guangzhou. "The company will probably be unable to enjoy such good refining margins in the second quarter with higher crude cost."
Sales dropped 13 percent to 413.8 billion yuan in the period, while oil and gas output fell 2.7 percent to 114.7 million barrels of oil equivalent. Total refining output fell 2.4 to 57.2 million tons. Operating profit from refining swung to a 13.4 billion yuan gain from a loss the year earlier.
Sinopec last year outperformed its state-owned rivals PetroChina Co. and Cnooc Ltd. as profit from oil refining helped offset the impact from oil's plunge.

Rainbow Pumpkin Craft with Melted Crayons
By Stephanie Meade
Fun rainbow pumpkin craft from crayons (c) InCultureParent
Let's get colorful for some fall decorating fun with crayons! These pumpkins can be made into creative, rainbowy masterpieces with just three items: crayons, a hairdryer and a pumpkin. Don't you love crafts that don't require much prepping. I know I do!
This will dry pretty fast and then you can put it somewhere to be enjoyed. The kids couldn't keep their hands off it as they loved the texture!
A very special thanks to my kids' after school instructor Lela who came up with the brilliant idea for this craft!

Used in models #R1500, R1505, R1510
by gwolanin

These buttons tend to break way too often. But it is much cheaper at the moment for me other than replacing the full over-the-range microwave.
Not an MCM issue but a manufacturer issue.
Because this is on-sale I am getting two and the value is great since the sale price is 1/2 the cost of the original price. It would be nice of the MFGR would produce this part with stronger plastic or design it so that the start button doesn't break off as often as it does.
MCM Electronics gave me terrific service and great prices. I will cheerfully shop with them again for my electronic needs.
