You see, any time Ewan McGregor is featured in a film, no matter how bad the script or the actors surrounding him, the film will prevail, because he is our Ian McEwan from my Scotland, my homeland, but more than this, McGregor is just an incredible talent. Remember him in such great films as Big Fish, Trainspotting, in others ~ he just has a gift and a way about him that few actors have these days.
Here, in Eye of the Beholder (an otherwise completely passable and neutral film), he plays the role of "Lucky Legs" a.k.a. "The Eye" who works for some department of the British Embassy / diplomatic service. McGregor is the typical geek, secret spy, which I can say because I'm one myself am a geek and so can understand this phenomenon, what it means to have the cool and realistic computer and photographic trappings he does have and more, how to use them in a believable way.
McGregor pulls this off seamlessly. He uses computers believably, even at one point connecting to a modem via an inflight telephone through which he runs his credit card, a brilliant trick that I'll have to try one day because I found it impressive (oh, you already knew that and how to do it, but I had never seen it until this film and was wildly impressed with this one small gesture. I have to admit, for this film, for me anyway, more than the plot it was the gadgets that sold me on it. I just loved the gadgets and who wouldn't. A camera that looked like a gun with severarl rounds of lens's that were of different magnifying strengths, a well as an actual gun to be used in emergencies.
I wonder, maybe he's just too geeky, but wouldn't he make the James Bond that I want to see? Okay, yes, I'm partial to a boy from the homeland and I'm partial especially to the handsome McGregor with his geeky sex appeal, I admit, as I wrote in The Sex Appeal of the Socratic that appeared in these very pages). There is just something incredibly charming and alluring about a guy who just doesn't see his own sexiness or smartness or he does see his smartness and struts his brain, but that's it.
Strutting your brain is good ~ strut anything else and you just come across looking like all hoochie-coochie like this barely-a-woman I once saw at a friend's office ~ a cheap and slippery and oily thing, all miserable looking and worse, so desperately trying to catch the attention of the opposite sex. What can I say but blech. McGregor, like anyone who doesn't sell themselves cheaply, comes across as worth the money you paid to get into the theatre or to rent the film, even if his do costars suck and are no good and most of us would agree, I think, that Ashley Judd, as much as I want to like her, is the same in every movie; there is no nuance, no differentiation. But so what ~ we're not there for her. We're there for McEwan and the stuff, the equipment, the geek appeal, and most of all the cool toys.
Yes, McGregor hides behind computer screens all day (who here does not?) but is excellent at his job, cool and collected and removed, though there is a back-story about his lost child and wife because due to his long work hours and dedication to his office etc. and it's sort of unnecessary though comes in handy at a certain point in which he must chat up Ashley Judd, our murderous heroine (how odd) and try to "save her" which he makes his final mission.
Assigned to follow a dippy kid (a child of a diplomat) who is conniving money from his father and is up to no good, Lucky Legs spies on him as he walks around with a strange but also without a doubt (doubtless) strangely alluring woman on whom he spies, catching them and catches having sex (or about to) one thunderous night (bien sur) in dippy kid's large-windowed mansion in which he is murdered by a would-be sex partner who hacks him to death, then bursts into tears when the job is done and says, repeatedly while crying "Merry fucking Christmas Daddy…"
Wow, this is one seriously fucked up chick..
Problem is, McGregor sees a woman in trouble and with who else, but the u.h.f. movie queen herself, Ashley Judd, could fill that role, and although I don't dislike her, and I admit she is good for what she does, but will never be more than that. She will never be Meryl Streep. Judd, no matter how hard she may try to strech her wings, appears as the same character in every film with the same cadence in her voice, same everything, which a good actress can change, believably. Judd does not. Her voice is a monotone ~ like the brrrrrrr-hum of a phone before you dial the number, soothing but irritating at once.
McGregor is incredibly convincing in his role as a real spy as noted for both his use of equipment, his body language, and let's not forget his awkwardness and general geekiness (remember Trainspotting?) in which he was also believable. Here is no different. He is just as believable if not more in some ways, because the character allows him more leeway here and McGregor, though no doubt was very into Trainspotting, is more suited to a role like this in some ways because it is softer for him and he is a softer, warmer character than Trainspotting really allowed him to be in the final account.
The film also has appearances by singer/songwriter K.D. Lang, who is excellent in her role as liaison at the embassy and very believable – so much so that I wonder why she doesn't get more parts. She ought to… She's a fine and believable actress and a good director would do well to put some of his or her money to back Lang even if in a small role at first to check her out. She's good. She knows what she's doing and she is sympathetic and believable as a boss and a liaison for Lucky Legs.
The sets or wherever they shot this are incredible and realistic. The embassy in particular is a favorite and is obviously hidden somewhere in a fine townhouse but with all the high-tech gear you'd expect to find at an embassy. It's pretty incredible really. The film takes its name from McGregor's codeword to enter the building 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" which must be both a voice print match as well as a finger print match. He must say this every time he calls in to be confirmed, even if his picture shows because you can look like someone, but you can't sound like someone else ~ and it's details like these that lend some credence to this film and make it enjoyable, especially for the techno geek who'll be saying, as I was, "Oh, I want one of those…" And throw in Ewan McGregor for good measure because we really need to talk for five minutes.
Worth seeing. Don't expect much from Judd or the rest of the cast, but do enjoy McGregor in this role and focus on that.
The rest is cake.
Trivia about Eye of the Beholder: (from Amazon.com)
The director originally wanted Massive Attack to do the music for the film, but the group had broken up by the time the film was ready for scoring.
Director Stephan Elliott had originally envisioned an older woman to play Joanna Eris. However, after Ashley Judd campaigned for the part, he relented.
In official selection at the 1999 Venice Film Festival, the film would later become the #1 film at the American Box Office in its opening week in January 2000.

Overview (4)
|Date of Birth
|30 October 1978, Fort Ord, California, USA
|Birth Name
|Matthew James Morrison
Matty Fresh
|5' 11" (1.8 m)
Mini Bio (2)
Matthew Morrison knew he wanted to be an entertainer after participating in a theatre camp as a child. He attended NYU's TISCH School of the arts in the CAP21 program before joining the cast of Footloose. He was a member of the boy band LMNT, briefly, before he redevoted himself to Broadway in Rocky Horror. Hairspray has been his big break.
- IMDb Mini Biography By: Christina Trivigno
It took a summer of acting in a children's theater group to convince Matthew Morrison that he wanted to become an actor. He auditioned and attended Orange County High School of the Arts, and followed that with NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, although he didn't enjoy his college foray. Despite a regulation that students couldn't audition in the first two years at NYU, he got himself an agent and dropped out from NYU. His musical debut was in the musical version of Footloose (1984), which was then followed by "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." His big break, however, was in "Hairspray" when he landed the part of "Link Larkin." It was after this role that he made a debut into the television and film world, with small roles in Sex and the City (1998), Hack (2002), Encino Man (1992), and others. His self-proclaimed favorite role he did in television was in Once Upon a Mattress (2005), a musical for TV that starred Carol Burnett. He was nominated for a Tony for his role in "The Light in the Piazza" and eventually left the show in late 2005. He dabbled some more in roles among the television, film, and theater world. After starring in the Lincoln Center production of "South Pacific" as "Lieutenant Cable" in 2008, he took on the role of "Will Schuester" in the upcoming Fox series Glee (2009), which premiers in fall 2009.

Comments about Stokke Crusi Carry Cot (Black Melange):
I received this as a gift and although I think it is nice, my baby only used it for 1-2 weeks. Considering it does not come with the stroller set as many other bassinets do, I do not think it is worth the additional $400.
Comments about Stokke Crusi Carry Cot (Black Melange):
Bag's handle is brokn, bad quality
Comments about Stokke Crusi Carry Cot (Black Melange):
I love this item! My new born is safe and cozy with lots of space and when I go to events or gatherings I simply take the cot off the base and put it in a quiet corner if my baby is sleeping.
Comments about Stokke Crusi Carry Cot (Black Melange):
I am using this stroller abouth two months and I am very glad that we decide to buy this Stokke stroller.
Comments about Stokke Crusi Carry Cot (Black Melange):
I bought it around 4 months ago, and are still very happy with it. It is very spacious cary cot and has big shield. I liked it also because it was very easy to set up once we got it in a box. It also comes with a great top cover, which I used a lot to protect the baby from the wind and even sun. The only thing that would probably be an advantage for me and our baby( who has some nose problems and her nose gets stuck very quickly when she lays on the back) the possibility to adjust the positionin of the cot so that the head is a bit higher than feet. It would also be great for the babies over 4 months who really are interested in surroundings but still are happy to be in the cot instead of the sitting part/seat and prevent from choking if baby has reflux.

Nelson also cited U.S. Census data as a reason behind TEKS and TAKS. He said the state grew by 4 million people in the past decade, with about 600,000 from Mexico and Central and South America. Those who lack education and skills have difficulty finding good paying jobs, he said. "If we don't want our standard of living to drop, we need to make sure young people have what they need to be successful," Nelson said. However, with increased business because of the North American Free Trade Agreement, the state also should emphasize the need for students to learn Spanish, he said. The work of teachers during the past decade has not gone unnoticed, Nelson said.

New 2010 Harley Davidson Motorcycles
Harley-Davidson, often abbreviated H-D or Harley, is an American motorcycle manufacturer. Founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, during the first decade of the 20th century, it was one of two major American motorcycle manufacturers to survive the Great Depression. Harley-Davidson also survived a media-accelerated negative image of motorcyclists, a period of poor quality control, and competition with Japanese manufacturers. The company sells heavyweight (over 750 cc) motorcycles designed for cruising on the highway. Harley-Davidson motorcycles (popularly known as "Harleys") have a distinctive design and Exhaust note. They are especially noted for the tradition of heavy customization that gave rise to the chopper-style of motorcycle. Except for the modern VRSC model family, current Harley-Davidson motorcycles reflect the styles of classic Harley designs. Harley-Davidson's attempts to establish itself in the light motorcycle market have met with limited success and have largely been abandoned since the 1978 sale of its Italian Aermacchi subsidiary. Harley-Davidson sustains a loyal brand community which keeps active through clubs, events, and a museum. Licensing of the Harley-Davidson logo accounts for almost 5% of the company's net revenue.

I stayed at this hostel twice, before and after my Trans Siberian journey. The location is good, just a few minutes walk from the metro, which itself only takes about 10 minutes to Red Square and other central locations. The rooms were comfortable and warm and the lockers big enough to store a suitcase or large backpack, which is great. They also have secure entry with key cards which is good security. The showers and bathroom areas are also clean and in good condition.

My new Oscallaris clownfish with GSP
1 Attachment(s)
I got 2 ocellaris clownfish today. I'm not worried about them with my Green spotted puffer, he shows no interest. The yellowtail damsel I have, seems more aggressive, though she/he has calmed down. I tried catching her, but to no avail - they are so fast, and quickly dive into the LR. I think it just wanted to establish its territory.
Picture is with "blue" lights on.
We preach that Damsels are not a good fish to have. Now you know why.
CONGRATS on the lil ones!
Update. :greenyay: Damsel has been leavinging the clowns alone, so all is good. Clownfish eat well and are a nice addition.
Good to hear!!!

Akron's favorite Spuds are still at it, with this new song "Don't Roof Rack Me, Bro! (Seamus Unleashed).
Check it out...
DEVO's Jerry Casale replies to comments regarding their new song about Mitt Romney's dog:
Regarding Obama supposedly eating dog meat as a child: Look up "equivocation" people! Why engage in apples and oranges arguments? Even if Obama ate some dog, he didn't abuse and kill it for goddsakes! It was already dead!
And, as far as Romney's claim that Seamus like being roof-racked, when is the last time your dog showed joy by convulsing and shitting mounds of diarrhea down your car windows from that fun trip on the roof in the hot summer sun? Give me a (you know what) break!
This not about Democrats vs Republicans or Red vs Blue and all the rest of that trumped up pseudo WWF smack down crap the media hypnotizes you with. This is just about a man with a very questionable soul.
Even though our political candidate choices are about as deep as the difference between Pepsi and Coke these days, and knowing that the president is just a figurehead bought and paid for by the Plutocracy that is America in Century 21, character still matters. A president should take the same oath as doctors i.e. "Do No Harm". We make pets dependent on us. We created all the dog breeds. We are thus responsible as stewards over all species. Case closed.

What's up
with Landscape?
Local & Regional
The Convention
28 Maggio 2009 | id:402
The European Landscape Convention is an international treaty adopted in Florence (Italy) on 20 October 2000 on the basis of a proposal formulated by the Council of Europe's Congress of Local and Regional Authorities. It came into force on 1 March 2004, with the aim of promoting European landscape protection, management and planning, and encouraging European co-operation in this area.
The Convention is an international legal framework for a political project aimed at sharing and consolidating a new approach to landscape issues continent-wide. It is the first international treaty to be exclusively concerned with all aspects of European landscape. It applies to the entire territory of the Parties and covers natural, rural, urban and peri-urban areas. It concerns landscapes that might be considered outstanding as well as everyday or degraded landscapes.
The Convention proposes legal and financial measures at the national and international levels, aimed at shaping "landscape policies" and promoting interaction between local and central authorities as well as transfrontier cooperation in protecting landscapes.
The Convention provisions relating to the division of public responsibilities make an explicit reference to the principle of subsidiarity and local self-government. Accordingly, the Contracting States undertake to involve local and regional authorities in the establishment and the implementation of landscape policies, landscape identification / assessment procedures, the definition of quality objectives and interventions in the areas concerned.
The authentic version of the Convention (in English and French) is presented under TEXTS OF THE CONVENTION, together with other linguistic versions. Other information on the origins of the Convention and its provisions can be found under EXPLANATORY REPORT.
As of 15 February 2009, 30 States had ratified the Convention: Armenia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Moldova, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, "the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia", Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom. Six States had signed but not ratified it: Azerbaijan, Greece, Malta, Serbia, Sweden and Switzerland. Albania, Andorra, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Estonia, Georgia, Germany, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco and Russia had neither signed nor ratified the Convention. The Convention is in force in 21 out of the 27 member States of the European Union.
Further information on the signature / ratification process are presented under SIGNATURES AND RATIFICATIONS.

Once again we were annoyed by the thoughtlessness of smaller boat owners, there were available slots in the boxes but too narrow for us and similar boats but they, who had come earlier, had taken the easy option and pulled alongside the quay wall, not only taking a space suitable for larger boats but because they are small, larger boats ...
It pays to be flexible
We had no real plan for today in terms of where we wanted to end up. The forecasts had been so iffy with regard to wind strength and directions that we decided instead to go with the flow, as long as we could head roughly in the direction we wanted ie basically south. With that then, and on another lovely morning, we were off and sailing in a pleasant easterly wind by 08:30.

Problem 6: Molecular Biology Has Failed to Yield a Grand "Tree of Life"
Editor's note: This is Part 6 of a 10-part series based upon Casey Luskin's chapter, "The Top Ten Scientific Problems with Biological and Chemical Evolution," in the volume More than Myth, edited by Paul Brown and Robert Stackpole (Chartwell Press, 2014). The full chapter can be found online here. Other individual installments can be found here: Problem 1, Problem 2, Problem 3, Problem 4, Problem 5, Problem 7, Problem 8, Problem 9, Problem 10.
When fossils failed to demonstrate that animals evolved from a common ancestor, evolutionary scientists turned to another type of evidence -- DNA sequence data -- to demonstrate a tree of life. In the 1960s, around the time the genetic code was first understood, biochemists �mile Zuckerkandl and Linus Pauling hypothesized that if DNA sequences could be used to produce evolutionary trees -- trees that matched those based upon morphological or anatomical characteristics -- this would furnish "the best available single proof of the reality of macro-evolution."99 Thus began a decades-long effort to sequence the genes of many organisms and construct "molecular" based evolutionary ("phylogenetic") trees. The ultimate goal has been to construct a grand "tree of life," showing how all living organisms are related through universal common ancestry.
The Main Assumption
The basic logic behind building molecular trees is relatively simple. First, investigators choose a gene, or a suite of genes, found across multiple organisms. Next, those genes are analyzed to determine their nucleotide sequences, so the gene sequences of various organisms can then be compared. Finally, an evolutionary tree is constructed based upon the principle that the more similar the nucleotide sequence, the more closely related the species. A paper in the journal Biological Theory puts it this way:
[M]olecular systematics is (largely) based on the assumption, first clearly articulated by Zuckerkandl and Pauling (1962), that degree of overall similarity reflects degree of relatedness.100
This assumption is essentially an articulation of a major feature of the theory - the idea of universal common ancestry. Nonetheless, it's important to realize that it is a mere assumption to claim that genetic similarities between different species necessarily result from common ancestry.
Operating strictly within a Darwinian paradigm, these assumptions flow naturally. As the aforementioned Biological Theory paper explains, the main assumption underlying molecular trees "derives from interpreting molecular similarity (or dissimilarity) between taxa in the context of a Darwinian model of continual and gradual change."101 So the theory is assumed to be true to construct a tree. But also, if Darwinian evolution is true, construction of trees using different sequences should reveal a reasonably consistent pattern across different genes or sequences.
This makes it all the more significant that efforts to build a grand "tree of life" using DNA or other biological sequence data have not conformed to expectations. The basic problem is that one gene gives one version of the tree of life, while another gene gives a highly different, and conflicting, version of the tree. For example, as we'll discuss further below, the standard mammalian tree places humans more closely related to rodents than to elephants. But studies of a certain type of DNA called microRNA genes have suggested the opposite -- that humans were closer to elephants than rodents. Such conflicts between gene-based trees are extremely common.
The genetic data is thus not painting a consistent picture of common ancestry, showing the assumptions behind tree-building commonly fail. This leads to justifiable questions about whether universal common ancestry is correct.
Conflicts in the Base of the Tree of Life
Problems first arose when molecular biologists sequenced genes from the three basic domains of life -- bacteria, archaea, and eukarya -- but those genes did not allow these basic groups of life to be resolved into a treelike pattern. In 2009, the journal New Scientist published a cover story titled, "Why Darwin was wrong about the tree of life" which explained these quandaries:
The problems began in the early 1990s when it became possible to sequence actual bacterial and archaeal genes rather than just RNA. Everybody expected these DNA sequences to confirm the RNA tree, and sometimes they did but, crucially, sometimes they did not. RNA, for example, might suggest that species A was more closely related to species B than species C, but a tree made from DNA would suggest the reverse.102
This sort of data led biochemist W. Ford Doolittle to explain that "Molecular phylogenists will have failed to find the 'true tree,' not because their methods are inadequate or because they have chosen the wrong genes, but because the history of life cannot properly be represented as a tree."103 New Scientist put it this way: "For a long time the holy grail was to build a tree of life ... But today the project lies in tatters, torn to pieces by an onslaught of negative evidence."104
Many evolutionists sometimes reply that these problems arise only when studying microorganisms like bacteria -- organisms which can swap genes through a process called "horizontal gene transfer," thereby muddying the signal of evolutionary relationships. But this objection isn't quite true, since the tree of life is challenged even among higher organisms where such gene-swapping is not prevalent. Carl Woese, a pioneer of evolutionary molecular systematics, explains:
Phylogenetic incongruities can be seen everywhere in the universal tree, from its root to the major branchings within and among the various taxa to the makeup of the primary groupings themselves.105
Likewise, the New Scientist article notes that "research suggests that the evolution of animals and plants isn't exactly tree-like either."106 The article explains what happened when microbiologist Michael Syvanen tried to create a tree showing evolutionary relationships using 2000 genes from a diverse group of animals:
He failed. The problem was that different genes told contradictory evolutionary stories. ... the genes were sending mixed signals. ... Roughly 50 per cent of its genes have one evolutionary history and 50 per cent another.107
The data were so difficult to resolve into a tree that Syvanen lamented, "We've just annihilated the tree of life."108 Many other papers in the technical literature recognize similar problems.
Conflicts Between Higher Branches
A 2009 paper in Trends in Ecology and Evolution notes that, "A major challenge for incorporating such large amounts of data into inference of species trees is that conflicting genealogical histories often exist in different genes throughout the genome."109 Similarly, a paper in Genome Research studied the DNA sequences in various animal groups and found that "different proteins generate different phylogenetic tree[s]."110 A June, 2012 article in Nature reported that short strands of RNA called microRNAs "are tearing apart traditional ideas about the animal family tree." Dartmouth biologist Kevin Peterson who studies microRNAs lamented, "I've looked at thousands of microRNA genes, and I can't find a single example that would support the traditional tree." According to the article, microRNAs yielded "a radically different diagram for mammals: one that aligns humans more closely with elephants than with rodents." Peterson put it bluntly: "The microRNAs are totally unambiguous ... they give a totally different tree from what everyone else wants."111
Conflicts Between Molecules and Morphology
Not all phylogenetic trees are constructed by comparing molecules like DNA from different species. Many trees are based upon comparing the form, structure, and body plan of different organisms -- also called "morphology." But conflicts between molecule-based trees and morphology-based trees are also common. A 2012 paper studying bat relationships made this clear, stating: "Incongruence between phylogenies derived from morphological versus molecular analyses, and between trees based on different subsets of molecular sequences has become pervasive as datasets have expanded rapidly in both characters and species."112 This is hardly the only study to encounter conflicts between DNA-based trees and trees based upon anatomical or morphological characteristics. Textbooks often claim common descent is supported using the example of a tree of animals based upon the enzyme cytochrome c which matches the traditional evolutionary tree based upon morphology.113 However, textbooks rarely mention that the tree based upon a different enzyme, cytochrome b, sharply conflicts with the standard evolutionary tree. As one article in Trends in Ecology and Evolution observed:
[T]he mitochondrial cytochrome b gene implied . . . an absurd phylogeny of mammals, regardless of the method of tree construction. Cats and whales fell within primates, grouping with simians (monkeys and apes) and strepsirhines (lemurs, bush-babies and lorises) to the exclusion of tarsiers. Cytochrome b is probably the most commonly sequenced gene in vertebrates, making this surprising result even more disconcerting.114
Strikingly, a different article in Trends in Ecology and Evolution concluded, "the wealth of competing morphological, as well as molecular proposals [of] the prevailing phylogenies of the mammalian orders would reduce [the mammalian tree] to an unresolved bush, the only consistent [evolutionary relationship] probably being the grouping of elephants and sea cows."115 Because of such conflicts, a major review article in Nature reported, "disparities between molecular and morphological trees" lead to "evolution wars" because "[e]volutionary trees constructed by studying biological molecules often don't resemble those drawn up from morphology."116
Finally, a study published in Science in 2005 tried to use genes to reconstruct the relationships of the animal phyla, but concluded that "[d]espite the amount of data and breadth of taxa analyzed, relationships among most [animal] phyla remained unresolved." The following year, the same authors published a scientific paper titled, "Bushes in the Tree of Life," which offered striking conclusions. The authors acknowledge that "a large fraction of single genes produce phylogenies of poor quality," observing that one study "omitted 35% of single genes from their data matrix, because those genes produced phylogenies at odds with conventional wisdom." The paper suggests that "certain critical parts of the [tree of life] may be difficult to resolve, regardless of the quantity of conventional data available." The paper even contends that "[t]he recurring discovery of persistently unresolved clades (bushes) should force a re-evaluation of several widely held assumptions of molecular systematics."117
Unfortunately, one assumption that these evolutionary biologists aren't willing to re-evaluate is the assumption that universal common ancestry is correct. They appeal to a myriad of ad hoc arguments -- horizontal gene transfer, long branch attraction, rapid evolution, different rates of evolution, coalescent theory, incomplete sampling, flawed methodology, and convergent evolution -- to explain away inconvenient data which doesn't fit the coveted treelike pattern. As a 2012 paper stated, "phylogenetic conflict is common, and frequently the norm rather than the exception."118 At the end of the day, the dream that DNA sequence data would fit into a nice-neat tree of life has failed, and with it a key prediction of neo-Darwinian theory.

Getable Rental Expert
Boom (crane) trucks are a vital tool in bridge building, operations in power and chemical plants and refineries, and large-scale construction projects. They are designed specifically for pick-and-carry operations on firm level ground. Rough terrain models have extra stabilization options. Always rent cranes with an experience operator.
available lift weights
Carry deck cranes are small 4 wheel cranes that can swivel 360 degrees. The boom in these cranes is located at the centre to facilitate the swivel, and the operator cabin is usually on one side beneath the boom. This configuration provides stability. There is some space above the wheels and this deck is usually used to hoist load around the operator cabin or transport items to another job site. These heavy machines require operational expertise and it is recommended to be rented with an operator.
available lift weights
The crawler crane has a stable track with no outriggers, which provides excellent mobility and little set-up for each lift within a job site. The undercarriage rests on a set of tracks, or crawlers which allows movement over ground that has not been compacted. Movement between job sites requires that it be dismantled and shipped, which can be costly. Used for anything from construction to port cargo handling, an experienced operator is recommended.
