2. Anne Reinking doing "Torchin' for Bill" from "Movie Movie".
Yes that is a very young Harry Hamlin in there, in addition to Trish Van Deveere (sp) and other big names.
"Rehab" parody:
LOL that's my favorite episode!
Daphne: Oh I need a cup of tea
Frasier: Tea?! Why don't you just wave a crumpet in the air and start singing God Save the Queen!
I found someone new to follow on Twitter, who happened to love country and metal music.
I mention my new Twitter friend to Mr Skateycat, who proceeds to Google the search terms "country metal"
We find this video, which makes us all die of laughter!
For the next three weeks, little skateycat will randomly yell out "TracTORR!" or "Cows go moo when they poo!"
Ok, so do I.
I really wish I knew who the artist was. I would actually pay for the song or the video! It is an absolute riot!

This time-saving cooling system features three fans which have been custom designed to fit the Orion XX14i IntelliScope, XX14g GoTo and XX16g GoTo Dobsonian primary mirror cells. All three small fans work in tandem to help reduce the amount of time needed for the telescope to reach thermal equilibrium with the ambient air temperature of your observing location. You'll enjoy peak performance from your XX14i, XX14g or XX16g GoTo Dobsonian without having to wait as long for the air inside the telescope to cool down to the same temperature as your stargazing site.
When using a reflector, especially a large-aperture Dobsonian such as the XX14i, XX14g or XX16g, it is important to let the telescope's primary mirror equilibrate to ambient temperature. Otherwise, your views will be plagued with wavy disturbances caused by turbulent air currents within the tube. Normally, it can take an hour or more for a large aperture reflector optical tube to reach thermal equilibrium with outdoor temperatures when the telescope is moved outside from a climate-controlled house or even a garage or shed. You can significantly speed up the cooling time using the Orion Three-Fan Cooling System for Convex-Back Dobsonians. Spend more time using your telescope and less time waiting for it to cool down!
Consisting of three 12-volt DC, 0.12A fans which are wired in parallel, the Orion Three-Fan Cooling System for Convex-Back Dobsonians features a single 35" long power cable splitter for convenient use. Each fan boasts 33.4 CFM (cubic foot per minute) air flow to help significantly accelerate cooling of your Dobsonian telescope's optics. The fans operate quietly without vibrating, and they mount easily in threaded holes on the the XX14i, XX14g and XX16g primary mirror cell with included hardware.
For best results, run the Orion Three-Fan Cooling System prior to using the reflector telescope. You can also use the cooling fans intermittently between observations to compensate for any ambient temperature changes that may occur. Power is supplied using the included battery holder which accepts 8 D-cell batteries (batteries not included). Since the Three-Fan Cooling System current draw is a low 0.36 amps, a full battery holder with 8 D-cells will provide over 24 hours of use.

Impressions from the European Geophysical Union conference 2008
There seems to be a great secret of Powerpointerism: the programmers at Microsoft designed a right mouse click option to show a presentation straight away without showing the subsequent page. There is a systematic neglect of this functionality, so that the Microsoft guys must have implemented this one in vain.
The best quote that i heard on this conference was: 'A trend is a trend is a trend …'. In other words, there is no definite definition of a trend, at least not to statisticians who like to use more complex lagged correlation models. Something to bear in mind for those who fit linear lines to data points – in order to study trends – and then use the goodness of fit to say whether the trend is 'significant' or not.
Another bad habit is showing latitudinal profiles of zonal mean values as if the points at high latitudes are equal to those near the equator. What they really compare are oranges and apples, as the low latitude zonal means involve higher degrees of freedom than at high latitudes. I have explained this in more technical details in a GRL article from 2005, but such graphs can be found even the latest IPCC report. Though it may be a minor point, it makes models look worse than they actually are, as part of the spread towards the poles can be attributed increasing statistical fluctuations when the number of degrees becomes less. Thus, the results would stand stronger taking this aspect into account.
I was pleased to hear that some colleagues in the German weather service sometimes use RealClimate for inspiration to their monthly seminars. What was more unexpected, however, was being met with a slide showing 'Naturally Trendy?' on a session that I had been invited to give a talk.
Furthermore, it turned out that Cohn and Koutsoyiannis, one of them the author of the very paper that I had criticized, sat down next to me. We nevertheless had a very civilized and friendly chat, deciding to disagree on the matter of natural trends.
But Dr. Koutsoyiannis commended us for being respectful in our reply to his comments. I think this is a very important issue – we have to be respectful, sincere, and show courtesy in our criticism, even when we argue why we think that a paper has flaws. This brings us back to the discussion on blogs and journals.
I think that we have built up a reputation only because we deliver relevant quality analysis. We are very much aware that we some day may be mistaken, so it's important to be humble and check our drafts amongst ourselves. But when a question was asked about the importance of blogs like RealClimate in the session, the answer was that they were good entertainment.
Vienna is a pleasant city with many pretty sights. The only annoying thing is that one often has to breathe in local pollution from the next table when dining in restaurants. Austria is one of the few western European countries that has not introduced a smoking ban in restaurants it seems.

Lets make this the intro thread. Post a little about yourself in here, I will start. My name is Kyle i am 14 and i have a 66 gmc truck.
ny b=name is barret and im 15 and i hane a 1941 chev turned super low roadsteri am also a pinstriper
Nick Licata -- 1963 Ford Galaxie.web producer for R&C
Chuck-California high desert. I have a 1964 Buick Riviera that I bought last December. My son and I painted it in March. it is totally stock for now while I decide what to do with it . I am in a club called The Old Farts Racing Team out of Riverside. I also have a 67 MGB roadster that i am almost finished building for my wife. I got it 7 years ago as a completly stripped basket case. Want a challenge? figure out British engineering! I built a 68 Nova for my son when he was in high school that he still drives every day 8 years later and a 67 Mustang for my daughter when she was in high school that she WISHES she still had. I am also helping a friend redo his 29 Model A sedan with a new TCI chassis.
Glad to see we have some young guys getting involved with old cars. Keep it up and good luck with the projects.
Dan G my illness includes a '48 Plymouth (daily driver), '64 Comet (nice day driver), '60 Comet,'37 Dodge p/u (projects), I hope to someday get to my '67 Triumph Daytona finished too. Man, am I stupid!
Dan, do you have any pics of the Comet online?
NLicata, No, there are no pictures online. I'm the last hold-out on earth. No digital camera, no cell phone, and yes I'm using the internet at work. You probably wouldn't dig the '64 anyway, it's got two extra doors, but it is a Caliente, and I dig it. The '60 is a two door though.
Oh well, I'm sure a digital camera is right around the corner for you. Once you start you won't even think about going back to film.You're not missing anything in the cell phone world though. And you thought that day-job would get you nowhere. At least it got you an internet connection. Probably where a large number of us get most of our online time in.Nick
Hey all, I own a 1956 mercury monterey, that as the story goes(trying to verify) was originally kustomized in the 60's. I will try and get some pics of it. I actually want to send it into R&C to maybe get it in the readers rides section. Maybe then someone might know the origins and get in touch with R&C and then they can let me know. Anyway, I have been into kustom and original 50's and earlier rides. I am 31 years old and have a very understanding wife! Good to see a great magazine has a message board.
Hi Iam looking for a metal aftermarket not very expensive replica for a 31 ford coupe ( its a race car so using a old one or an expensive one would be grazy I'm in canada so if any one knows a web site a name of a comapny or maybe someone makes then let me know if you could .

Jays' Rivera on the move?
The Blue Jays already have traded catcher Mike Napoli, one of two players they acquired for Vernon Wells. They also would like to trade the other half of their return, outfielder Juan Rivera, major league sources say.
Rivera's middle name ought to be "available." The Angels finally dumped him by including him in the Wells trade. The Blue Jays took on Rivera's $5.25 million salary as part of the price for moving Wells. But Rivera, a potential free agent, is not in the team's long-range plans.
For now, Rivera projects to be a reserve if the Jays go with an outfield of Travis Snider, Rajai Davis and Jose Bautista, or a regular in one corner if Bautista plays third. It's not likely the Jays will trade Rivera before the start of spring training; they may need to wait for teams to develop needs after the exhibition games begin.
A quicker resolution could position the Jays to sign free-agent outfielder Scott Podsednik, who is a more established leadoff man than Davis. The Jays also could add a third baseman and keep Bautista at his preferred position, right field. But third basemen are far more difficult to acquire than outfielders.
— Ken Rosenthal
At least we got rid of the contract, and dead weight. Bring up the young fellows, see if Bautista was a fluke if not give him his long term contract and wait for trade deadline and/or free agency to get more talent.
MIght as well get rid of bautista and hill and fill in with more triple a players better still wont be in the league next year because they have no fans

Learned that there's now a 64-bit Cygwin. And that SaVi and Geomview don't work well under it - OpenGL is disabled to prevent a crash, limiting Geomview to software rendering, and there's something odd in Cygwin's piping support that prevents the two applications communicating, unlike 32-bit Cygwin and 32- and 64-bit everything else.
I discovered this while helping out a Geomview user who had naively installed 64-bit using the installer from Cygwin's site, as there was no warning that it was very new and unproven. Still, the instructions for building Geomview under Cygwin have been updated.
Cygwin's an ever-moving target, without stable fixed-point releases that are a known quantity. Exposing users to development may help development, but it doesn't do much for users.

WaPo gives Hatch platform to mislead, contradict Post reporting
The [1] Washington Post [1]'s opinion pages keep getting worse, every day [1]. Today, the Post handed over a valuable chunk of opinion real estate to Sen. Orrin Hatch, who the Post allowed to make several misleading claims about reconciliation -- some of which were in conflict with the Post's own reporting.
Broadly, Hatch's op-ed is fundamentally misleading in that it repeatedly conflates passing health care reform via reconciliation with passing tweaks to health care reform via reconciliation. The former is not under discussion; indeed, the Senate has already passed health care reform. As the Post's own Ezra Klein explained yesterday [2], "Democrats are not proposing to create the health-care reform bill in reconciliation. Rather, they're using the process for a much more limited purpose: passing the 11 pages of modifications that President Obama proposed to reconcile the House and Senate bills with each other."
Still, Post op-ed editors allowed Hatch to suggest that reconciliation is being considered as a means of passing the entire reform package. Hatch writes [3]:
Some of my colleagues, and others, have wrongly argued that using reconciliation to change only parts of this enormously unpopular bill would not be an abuse of the process. But if the only way to pass this $2.5 trillion bill is through reconciliation, then this continues to be an abuse that stifles dissent and badly undermines our constitutional checks and balances.
Of course, reconciliation isn't the only way to pass the bill, because the Senate has already passed the bill. Reconciliation is begin considered as a means of amending the bill. (That $2.5 trillion figure, by the way, is much larger than the CBO's estimate, but the Post didn't make Hatch explain where it came from.)
Worse, the Post allowed Hatch to misleadingly suggest that Sen. Kent Conrad shares his opposition to using reconciliation:
This use of reconciliation to jam through this legislation, against the will of the American people, would be unprecedented in scope. And the havoc wrought would threaten our system of checks and balances, corrode the legislative process, degrade our system of government and damage the prospects of bipartisanship.
Less than a year ago, the longest-serving member of the Senate, West Virginia Democrat Robert Byrd, said, "I was one of the authors of the legislation that created the budget 'reconciliation' process in 1974, and I am certain that putting health-care reform . . . legislation on a freight train through Congress is an outrage that must be resisted." Senate Budget Committee Chairman Kent Conrad, also a Democrat, said last March, "I don't believe reconciliation was ever intended for the purpose of writing this kind of substantive reform legislation." They are both right.
But Conrad was "speaking generally of the idea of moving major legislative priorities under reconciliation," according to the New York Times article [4] in which that quote originally appeared. He wasn't speaking in opposition to using reconciliation to tweak legislation that has already passed, which is the current debate. (Note, again, that the Post allows Hatch to refer to "the use of reconciliation to jam through this legislation," which falsely suggests the entire reform package would be passed via reconciliation.) In fact, Conrad said just yesterday that reconciliation can be used for such fixes:
But Conrad patiently explained that the media interpretation of his comments is wrong. He was merely saying reconciliation would not be used to pass a comprehensive bill, and would only be used to pass the sidecar fix, which he said is workable, depending on what's in it.
"Reporters don't seem to be able to get this straight," Conrad said, hitting the "misreporting" he said is widespread. "Comprehensive health care reform will not work through reconciliation. But if the House passes the Senate bill, and wants certain things improved on, like affordability, the Medicaid provisions, how much of Medicaid expenses are paid for by the Federal government, that is something that could be done through reconciliation."
Surely the Post knows about that; Conrad said it to a Post reporter [5].
The Post also allowed Hatch to assert "Reconciliation was designed to balance the federal budget. Both parties have used the process, but only when the bills in question stuck close to dealing with the budget. In instances in which other substantive legislation was included, the legislation had significant bipartisan support."
But just yesterday, the Post's Greg Sargent detailed [6] several reconciliation votes cast by Republicans during the Bush presidency, including:
McConnell, Hatch, NRSC chief John Cornyn and 21 other current GOP Senators voted for the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003, which accelerated the Bush tax cuts and added new ones. This passed by a simple majority via reconciliation - 50-50 in the Senate with Dick Cheney casting the tiebreaking vote.
That wasn't an attempt to "balance the federal budget," and that wasn't something that passed [7] with "significant bipartisan support." So not only was Hatch's suggestion that reconciliation has only been used to to pass measures "to balance the federal budget" or those with "significant bipartisan support" false, he himself has supported reconciliation in situations that met neither of those conditions. Yet the Post let him mislead their readers.

IRVING, TX – CEC Entertainment, parent company of Chuck E. Cheese's, has announced plans for a high-tech redemption game that challenges young patrons to grab virtual-reality tickets. The attraction will employ Rift head-mounted display technology from Oculus VR.
Called Virtual Ticket Blaster Experience, the game is similar to those money booths in which patrons attempt to grab as much fan-propelled cash as possible within a set amount of time. It is set to roll out in 29 locations in San Diego, Dallas and Orlando over the next several weeks.
"Kids today have unprecedented access to game consoles and tablets," said CEC president Roger Cardinale. "Our challenge is to deliver an experience not available at home, and there is no doubt virtual reality does just that. Oculus Rift technology is the next frontier in the gaming industry, and we're thrilled to be able to say it's part of the Chuck E. Cheese's lineup."
The game, which was designed by the Dallas-based Reel FX, will mark the first consumer use of the breakthrough technology. Facebook purchased Oculus VR for $2 billion in March while approximately 80,000 development kits for the virtual reality goggles have been sold to date. | SEE STORY
However, in coin-op the introduction of the game may be significant for entirely different reasons. It marks the first time a location-developed game has beat established coin-op companies to market with a new technology. According to CEC officials, the initial investment in the game was relatively modest with the purchase of 30 sets of the goggles and software development.
So far CEC has not announced whether it plans to market the game beyond its current locations.

Research at Dumbarton Oaks
Dumbarton Oaks is a research institute of Harvard University that exists to further and publish research in the three areas of study supported by Robert Woods Bliss and Mildred Barnes Bliss: Byzantine Studies, including related aspects of late Roman, early Christian, western Medieval, Slavic, and Near Eastern Studies; Pre-Columbian Studies of Mexico, Central America, and Andean South America; and Garden and Landscape Studies, including garden history, landscape architecture, and related disciplines.
Residential fellowships for an academic year, semester, or summer are awarded in all three areas of study to scholars from around the world. In addition, Dumbarton Oaks offers one-month non-residential awards to researchers and short-term predoctoral residencies to advanced graduate students.
Each of the three programs of study supports and disseminates research in its relevant fields through an annual symposium; a program of public lectures, informal talks, and colloquia; and publications.
A program of project grants primarily supports archaeological research, as well as materials analysis and photographic surveys of objects and monuments. Long-term research projects at Dumbarton Oaks include the digitization of the Image Collections and Fieldwork Archives and the online publication of our Byzantine seals and coins collections.

Better edit number Widget
This is a place to collect thoughts on building a better edit_number widget.
Editing numbers is fairly fundamental within a UI. Numbers, always have some semantic interpretation - they mean something. Often the semantics of a number are so specialized that it deserves a separate widget - a good example is a data/time widget.
However, the a common use of numbers in UI is to represent measured values such as distance, weight, opacity, intensity, count, etc. Such measured values should be treated consistently within the UI (even here, we only have a guideline - selecting an angle is an example of a measured value which likely deserves a custom widget).
This page lists the desired attributes of a good edit_number widget - some of these attributes apply more broadly to other widgets but edit_number is such a commonly used widget that exploring it is a good way to cover many issues.
The issues to consider in the design of this one widget are all quite entangled - choices made in one area impact another. This page doesn't attempt to design a solution - only to organize and list the issues.
Units and Related Values
Numbers are an interpretation of something. Any physicist will tell you that all numbers have a unit associated with them. A single number can often be represented in multiple units - such as inches and cm. Within a UI a user should be able to change the units a value is displayed in, as well as change the unit a value is interpreted in. There are two distinct operations "show me this 3cm value as inches" and "interpret this 3 as 3 inches." Often units are related to other values - for example the inches width in an image is related to the resolution of the image - it's percentage width may be related to a previous size. The size a video will take up on disk is a function of many variables (time, frame size, compression). Depending on the unit, the related values may change. This is why in the current edit_number allows separate binding per unit.
Valid Ranges, Increments, and Scales
Numbers are often constrained to ranges and increments and such ranges

Jim Beauregard's Tasting Notes: Portugal presents summer whites
BY JIM BEAUREGARD | July 16. 2013 5:24PM
Now, when I mention Portugal, often the first thing that comes to mind is that dessert wine, Port, traditionally shipped from the mouth of the Duoro River at the city of Oporto. Another thing Portugal is famous for is its cork trees, whose bark is the source of much of the world's wine corks.
Here we have a Portuguese wine ironically under screw cap, petillance (very small bubbles) obvious on pouring, a citrus nose that first reminds of a steel-fermented Chardonnay. Slightly prickly on the palate, giving it some zest, with lemon and other citrus on the palate that is well-balanced, lively, and refreshing. If you are someone who appreciates an intense citrus palate, this wine, slightly chilled, would be perfect for summer. 87 points.

"It was a complete effort from everybody tonight," said Canisius head coach Dave Smith. "Our focus was excellent and once again, we scored timely goals today. We showed a great amount of character to grind out a crucial victory."
Senior Ben Parker, junior Kyle Gibbons and sophomores Mitch McCrank and Cody Freeman all scored for the Griffs in the winning effort.
Junior Tony Capobianco recorded 36 saves to earn the victory in goal.
RIT struck first in the contest thanks to a miscue by the Canisius defense. Brad McGowan intercepted a pass in the Griffs zone and Matt Garbowsky scored for the early 1-0 lead 6:52 into the contest.
Canisius answered back and quickly turned the momentum in its favor thanks to a pair of scores 22 seconds apart. Parker netted his first goal of the season at the 10:41 mark of the opening frame. Sophomore Matthew Grazen slid the puck back to Parker at the blue line and the senior defender found an opening for his first tally in nearly three years. Senior Preston Shupe also registered an assist on the game-tying tally.
The Griffs then wasted no time grabbing the lead. Off a rush, Gibbons got a step on the RIT defense and then scored off his backhand for his team-leading 16th goal of the season. McCrank and freshman Stephen Miller both recorded assists on the go-ahead tally.
After a scoreless second frame, the Griffs stretched their lead to two with a power-play tally 4:01 into the third. From the left boards, junior Patrick Sullivan sent a nice pass to McCrank right in front. The sophomore then tipped the puck in on an open net for his fifth score of the season. Gibbons added an assist to give the Griffs a 3-1 lead.
RIT did not go down quietly and pulled to within one with 13:12 remaining in the game. On a rush, McGowan's shot hit off a stick in front and into the net for the 3-2 score.
Canisius, however, once again answered, sealing the victory with 8:29 remaining in the contest with Freeman's seventh goal of the season. Taking advantage of another rush, Gibbons found Freeman open in the slot and the sophomore sent a wrist shot into the net for the two-goal lead. Parker added an assist as the Griffs secured the victory and home-ice advantage in the first round.
RIT held a 38-33 edge in shots on the night but Canisius won the special-teams battle. The Griffs were 1-for-4 on the power play, while killing both of the Tigers' extra-man chances.
Jordan Ruby recorded 29 saves in a losing effort for the Tigers.
Canisius now turns its attention toward the postseason where the Griffs will host 10th-seeded Bentley in a best 2-of-3 series. The schools are set to begin the series on Friday night at the Buffalo State Sports Arena at 7:05 p.m.
Game Notes: Bentley swept a pair of games in Waltham, Mass. earlier in the season ... Canisius swept a weekend series with RIT for the first time in the program's history and has now won three-straight against the Tigers for the first time in the 61-game series ... Parker's goal was the first for the senior defender since scoring in double overtime of game two of the 2010 Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinals against Mercyhurst (March 13, 2010) ... Parker also matched a career high with two points (had two assists against Army on Jan. 6, 2012) ... Canisius has now won its last four Senior Night contests ... Freeman has 11 points in his last 12 games after recording seven in his first 38 career contests.

Apparently there is a rule in Hardin County (Kentucky) Schoold Handbook that states that students CANNOT wear shorts until April 1st, even though we are experiencing 80 to 90 degree weather. I believe this is very inappropriate. A handbook cannot predict the weather conditions we are going to have and students should be allowed to wear weather appropriate clothes as long as they are not reavealing or otherwise offensive. My 6 yr old daughter wore shorts to school today that touched her knees. Her school staff changed her into SWEAT PANTS on a day when we are expecting 86 degree weather. Not to mention, they were 2 sizes too big to the point where she had to hold the waist bunched up with her hand or they would fall down. But I guess Radcliff Elementary thinks it's ok if she accidently shows her underwear to her whole class as long as she's not wearing shorts before April 1st. I removed my child from school today. They expect our children to ride buses that do not have air conditioning while wearing clothing that further increase their misery and may put them at risk of dehyration and heat stoke/exposure. I refuse to intentionally put my child at risk as her school seems so willing to do. Other parents who I talk to are saying their children are wearing shorts without any hassel. In fact, my 5 yr old daughter attends preschool at North Park Elementary and has not been critized for wearing shorts. The Broad of Education will be contacting me with the date of the next cite based council meeting, which by the way is composed of 2 parents and 3 teachers so that the teachers' votes outweigh the parents'. I HIGHLY recommend anyone whose children attend Radcliff Elementary, or if they will next year, to attend. I will post dates for anyone interested. There is a definate need of reevalution here.
I also now find out that the other kids my daughter gets on the bus with who wore shorts to the same school, were only told they weren't supposed to. They were not sent to the office and made change like my daugter was. That sounds like discrimination and harrassment to me.

Art in City Hall
Manchester workers, relatives show off artistic talents
By MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader | August 02. 2013 8:06PM
"Skyline" by Lori Sweeney, the Mayor's Choice Award in the Eighth Annual National Arts Program City of Manchester Employees and Families Art Competition. (MARK HAYWARD/Union Leader)
Those lives appear on paper with arcs and lines of color or charcoal.
They show up in a photographic image of a punked-out girl standing next to graffiti or a covered bridge spanning a river bed.
Such are the art works on display at City Hall for the rest of this month. More than 130 pieces have been submitted by city workers and their relatives. The work was judged this week, and more than $2,000 was awarded to winners, as well as two art classes.
This is the eighth year the city has put on the art competition. It is funded by a grant from the National Arts Program, which provides a $2,400 grant to be used for cash prizes. Pelmac Industries of Auburn and Members First Credit Union also made cash donations, and the New Hampshire Institute of Art and Currier Museum of Art provided scholarships.
The People's Choice Award went to Jonathan Golden, a city planner whose artistic endeavor has grown to a sideline business. He operates Handigitous Custom Artworks out of his Merrimack home, using airbrushing, lettered enamel and other mediums for custom designs on motorcycles, automobiles and helmets.
Five categories, from youth (under 12) to professional were judged. And both Mayor Ted Gatsas and Gov. Maggie Hassan had their top choices noted. Gatsas' choice is "Skyline," a multi-media, three-dimensional depiction of the Manchester skyline by Lori Sweeney. It also won third prize in the professional category.
"It's a lot more interesting when you're waiting to pay your tax bill than staring at wallpaper," she said.

Men's Basketball Falls to Milwaukee in HL Tourney Semifinals OT Thriller
ASHWAUBENON, Wis. (AP) -- Jordan Aaron scored 28 points and Matt Tiby added 15 with 10 rebounds as No. 5 seed Milwaukee (20-13) knocked off top-seeded Green Bay (24-6) in overtime 73-66 in the Horizon League tournament semifinals Saturday night.

"This is the first time I have used Tiny Prints for business cards, and just like everything else they do, these turned out great! I didn't need them right away, so I picked the slower shipping, and to my surprise, they arrived a week earlier than expected! I love the square shape of this particular design. It adds a little something different that helps me stand out from the competition. Thank you TP!"
"This was a great find. It's unique and sets your card apart from others. The photo and print quality is awesome. Colors are vibrant! Text is a bit small on the inside but they still look great. Not too much, not too little. And their customer service and delivery is awesome too."
"Very pleased with the quality and professional look of this card. Images were clear, plenty of text space for information and fun colors to work with. Great card with amazing service."
"I was always asked if I had any Business Cards on me, and unfortunately, I didn't until now. I went to Tinyprints.com and I had a selection of Business Cards to choose. I chose this card. It was simple, yet business type of a card. The cards had arrived early, after they were done, and they were packaged very well."
"The card was great I use my own photos an the quality was outstanding, I also like the Idea that I could order a small amount. an can reorder when I need more. It is worth the investment."

Here are some concept paintings of my custom mando. I am no where near ready to start making the rest of the costume but I made the helmet a couple years ago. The gray scale painting is a work in progress painting. I am currently adding the colors. I decided for that painting to experiment with more color diversity in the armor instead of everything being blue. The shoulders will be the same tan that is in my helmet and the gauntlets will be the same green from my helmet.
Let me know what you think. Constructive criticism is always welcome.Attachment 67595Attachment 67596
