This kit includes an 8", three wire, 2450W surface element. This low rise element has an attached trim ring, and a terminal block with all three-wire units.
This part works with the following brands: General Electric, Kenmore.
This part works with the following products: Range.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
First I shut the power off to the stove, then I lifted the burner and removed the screw that holds the hinge to the stove surface. Then gently I pulled the element out of the stove, exposing the wire connection (the ceramic block, the connection is samwiched between.) Then I took my screw driver and popped off one side of the clamped block(there is 2), then removed the top piece of the ceramic. Taking note of wire placment. Carefully used my socket wrench to remove screws that hold the 3 wires from the old element. Placed the new element in and screwed the wires on and placed the top ceramic piece back on. ( making sure wires are clear of pinching) Then push the clamps back on. Push wire connection(block) back in the stove top and screw on the hinge that holds it to the stove. I turned the power back on and now they are like new. This was very easy.

The hardest thing was finding the part to order! The GE Cooktop is from 1957 when the house was built. I followed the instructions that came with it. After seeing where the screw on hinge was supposed to be, I cleaned away the caked grease and finally saw the screw. I had to use a nut driver to remove it since it didn't have a slot for a screwdriver. Once that screw was out, the rest was easy. Before disconnecting any wires, I laid the new and old parts beside each other and drew a diagram showing where each wire (red, black & white) connected. It was a bit scary stripping the wires since they were old and fragile. It said to bend them into a "U" and solder but I didn't have soldering skill or equipment so I just tightened the screws holding the wires carefully. The connections are all nicely isolated in the bakelite insulator so it didn't seem cruicial. After working the new unit into place and turning on the power (at the circuit breaker), the burner worked perfectly. The replacement part looked exactly like the original. I was so amazed to be able to obtain the replacement burner after all these years! Thank-you PartsSelect!
I did the repairs by first shutting down the power and then checking with a tic tester to make sure power was off. Removed one burner at a time by unscrewing the holding screw on the hinge and then removed the ceramic insulator cover and then disconnected the wiring. I drew a schematic for the 3 wire leads (240 volts). Unscrewed them and removed the burner. Cleaned stove top, put burner back in reverse order. Very easy project. Stove top looks as good as it did when it was new.
Raise burner high enough to remove screw located on hinge between coils. Remove screw completely and lift-out burner and ceramic block with wire connections. Remove the wires from the connector block and strip-back the ends of both about 3/4". Make connections per the diagram and then assemble the ceramic blocks around the connection in a sandwiched fashion and secure the halves with the clips provided.Now sit the burner down into place. An extra pair of hands is good here to hold the chrome trim ring and the coil up directly opposite the hinge. Then, peek under the coil and using fingertips, get the screw provided started in the hinge bracket and run this screw up snugly. A 1/4" nut driver makes this part easier, but a screwdriver will get it done.That's it. Just flip the breaker to restore power and cross your fingers. A fairly easy job that took about 40 minutes to do both 8" elements The potentially frustrating parts are the ceramic terminal block assembly and replacing the hinge screw, but a job that's very doable. Oh, don't forget to slip the drip pans back in.
It took about 20 min to flip the breaker off and remove the 2 hinge screws and disassemble the 3 wires on each burner and reattach same to new burners. All the hardware was included with the parts went together fast. Flip the breaker back on and everything works perfect.Parts Select was the only place I could find replacement parts for such an old cooktop.Thanks, Jerry
Teh instillation was a simple matter of removing the old burners and replacing them with the new ones. Removal required the screw connector on each burner ring to be loosened and the reverse done when the new one was installed. The hardest part was finding the correct burners since the Model number of the stove was not in anyones file. This web site provided adequate pictures of the part to permit identification of the likely part to order. Thanks.
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the four wires The element i request was 3 elements and i received two element but it was very easy i connect only the 3 wires.
It was pretty easy. I just had to remove two screws, remove old element, connect new element and put screws back on. For the burners all you had to do was disconnect old one and reconnect new ones. The parts even included new ceramic covers for the wires.
This part has the trim ring attached. My old element had the trim rim detached. This new part still fit my stove top and works fine.
First I removed the screw that holds the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the three wires. Then I just had to do it in reverse. EASY!
I unscrewed the old burner from the stove, took off the three wire to the heating element marking down where each colored wire went, taped off the exposed wires, ordered the new burner, and waited for it to arrive. When it got here, I installed it, and believe it or not, the new burner works just fine!. End of exciting repair story.
Took the old part off and marked the wiring for easy replacing and looked all over town and no part to match, so I went to the Internet and put in 8" burner and luckily found your website. The part was perfect and saved me alot of time doing more research for the part. Thank you for the quick shipment and good correspondence.I will definitely use you again for parts and tell my friends about your website too.
Remove the old element by removing one screw and inserted new element and replaced the screw.
Transfered wires from the old burner to new burner followed the color code. Each burner takes about 10 min. to replace.Part select thank you for the great service you are providing.Mory

Six Women's Soccer Gaels Named All-MAAC
LAKE BUENA VISTA, FL - Six members of the Iona College women's soccer team were named to All-MAAC teams for their performances during the 2013 campaign. Four Gaels were named All-MAAC Second Team while two were named to the MAAC All-Rookie squad.
Seniors Trista Rivera, Sofia Sanchez and Christina Tesoriero and junior Sali Ayinde were named to the All-MAAC Second Team. Rivera posted a 0.82 GAA and .871 save percentage in all 10 MAAC appearances this season. Her 54 saves in MAAC player were second to Canisius' Megan Tock. She recorded four MAAC shutouts, the second most in the league. Sanchez' three goals in MAAC play ranked eighth overall. She finished third on the team in scoring with the three goals along with two assists. Tesoriero scored one goal on the season, but was the anchor for the Gaels' midfield in 2013. Ayinde was the team's defensive leader among a squad that allowed the second fewest goals in a single season over the last decade and a half.
Freshmen Emily Hansen and Alexa Wagoner were named to the MAAC All-Rookie team. Hansen joined Ayinde on the Maroon & Gold's back line while Wagoner was a staple in Iona's midfield.
Twelve of the Iona's 19 eligible student-athletes were named to the MAAC All-Academic team. Ayinde, Rivera and Sanchez were joined by seniors Leanne Benson, Jacquelyn Gates, Carly Haden, Katie Higgins, and Nicole Paulucci, juniors Safi Ayinde, Samantha Fiorenzo, Gabriella Fuduli and Natalie Murphy. To be eligible for the MAAC All-Academic Team, a student athlete must complete two semesters at their institution and hold a cumulative grade point average of 3.20 on a 4.0 scale.
The Gaels completed the 2013 season with a 7-8-4 overall record and 6-2-2 in the MAAC. The 20 points earned in league play were the most in the history of the program. Iona's No. 3 seed in the MAAC Championship was also the highest since its MAAC Championship campaign in 1992. The Gaels' 22 goals allowed were the fewest since 2005 and second fewest in the 15 years.

Tico tico No Fuba (piano version)
The little song they play on the Smurf & Co. game on Facebook!
The Association's Greatest Hits (love their harmonies and the flute solos)
The Warhorse soundtrack. And The Book of Mormon soundtrack.
Arcade Fire's "The Suburbs" (LOVE Half Light Part 1).
Ooh, I love that album too! Just saw them along with Muse at Outside Lands festival in San Francisco two weeks ago. Those two bands alone are worth going to the 3 day festival featuring over 70 bands, even if I was majorly crushed at the barriers for the Muse show. I was at the barrier the whole day for Muse starting at 1100 and the crushing started at 1600 after OK Go performed with the Arctic Monkeys performing after the 1/2 hour intermission. After Arctic Monkeys performed Black Keys were next and the crushing got even worse. Muse was on after Black Keys, and it got really bad. The crushing at the Arcade Fire show wasn't so bad. Other bands I got to see at the festival were MGMT, Foster the People, Decemberists, Shins, Best Coast, Joy Formidable, John Forgerty, Mavis Staples (the lead singer from Arcade Fire joined her for one song) and other bands that I am not familiar with, but ended up seeing them as they performed on the same stage as Muse and Arcade Fire and I was at the barrier all day wating for them.
Anyways, back to the topic, so I'm reliving my Outside Lands festival by listening to all the Muse albums.

Did You Know?
Not until the 13th century was our word dream used in the sense of "a series of thoughts, images, or emotions occurring during sleep." The word itself is considerably older. In Old English dream means "joy," "noise," or "music." Yet the change in meaning did not come from the development of a more specialized sense. Rather it appears that after many Scandinavian conflicts, conquests, and settlements in Britain the Old Norse draumr, meaning "a dream during sleep," influenced the meaning of the etymologically related, English word. By the end of the 14th century the earlier meanings had been entirely replaced.
Origin and Etymology of dream

I am sitting here holding a rifle that I am considering adding to the herd. I think it would be a worthwhile addition, but, Im not totally convinced.
Lets talk about it. It is a copy of the Short Magazine Lee Enfield (SMLE) Mk III. The Mark III was the British battle rifle for decades. It was and is a dependable and accurate firearm. You could do a lot worse. The Mk III came in the .303 British caliber. A good caliber, used for 100 years, but now relegated to the past.
The gun I refer to is the Ishapore (India) rifle in .308/7.62X51 caliber. These good guns were made during the 1960s. The one I am holding was manufactured in 1965. One visible difference is the magazine. The .303 is a rimmed case. The .308 is rimless. Therefore the floor of this magazine is more square than the .303. The .303 holds 10 and the .308 holds 12 rounds.
Its a heavy gun. I read that it weighs around 10 pounds loaded. I guess that a person could cut away some of the excess wood with no bad results. That would eliminate a pound or two. Also, ATI makes a replacement stock which would make a nice looking sporter out of this gun.
When I first put ammo in it and tried the action for fuctioning, it kept jamming. The upper cartridge would take a dive and I had to use a cleaning rod to pry the stuck cartridge out. Not good! However, I got to looking at the magazine and the feeding lips were not the same height. It looked to me like they should be. So, I adjusted the lips and tried it again. It seems to be working now. Somewhere along the line I think that somebody dropped the mag on its lips and one side got bent. However, until I can get it out in the woods and fire a few down range, I will hold my decision on whether I keep it or not.
If you can find one of these, they will probably cost between $200 and $400. But, I think that, if you get a good one, you will get a really good one. And, it is in a great caliber for Americans. You can research this gun by googling Ishapore rifles.

Stay with in the books limit and you'll be OK. So far as the over dent in the primer, I wouldn't worry about it unless it is tearing them. Then I would take it to a Smith.

Discussion in 'December 2008' started by Dlev59, Dec 26, 2008.
Maybe Oklahoma City?
(this is us complaining in 100 years) "sure is dark in here. why don't they offer league pass underground?"
There is always the option of Stuckey going back to the bench too. This is an option better than small ball. But Stuckey is our most solidly built of the three guards in discussion. Did anyone see how he stood his ground against Howard for a moment on an offensive rebound situation for Howard? The guy has a lot of size and strength, easily the most capable of replacing the toughness that CB use to give us. Still, moving Stuckey back to the bench does solve the problem and let our established stars continue to start. Further, Stuckey can surely be the first sub in, and still play a good 34 minutes per game. No, I do think Rip should come off the bench, not Stuckey nor AI, but hey, I would accept it as a great leap up from small ball.
You're right, I forgot that option. Thinking about that makes me realize how Stuckey just won the job. If he would have been shaky over the last few weeks, then benching him would be a distinct possibility right now. But as it stands, it doesn't seem like something that MC would dream of. So we got that going for us, which is nice. The more I think about this situation, the more I sympathize with MC. I'm wondering if this isn't a job for Dumars since most of the problem lies with future player happiness level, wilingness to re-sign, market reputation, and other intangibles. Curry should worry about putting the best team on the court, and JD should worry about the long-term.
I think you empathize with MC, not sympathize with him. He's making $7.5 million just for hanging out with guys that are playing a game. I don't think you feel sorry for him, do you?
I pitty the fool.
I like the picture on the front page. IIRC, Sheed missed everything on the shot, lol
P.A., we PWNED the Magic. Sheed sonned Howard again. Wasn't that fun? We just gotta believe.
i forgot to mention that in the game thread...he also bodied up turk on a fast break and prevented an easy basket by holding his ground...something AA had trouble with - both guards are 6'5" and AA is a solid defender, but stuckey is a little stronger and can hold his ground better (ideally they aren't assigned to guard those players, but it happens on possessions from time to time).
The benefits of having a big PG.
You mean, like Chauncey Billups?
Or Stuckey. Very similar in this respect. 6'5" for Stuck and just as strong as CB.
orlando had 11 3-pointers and 30 points in the paint (63 points) plus 9 FTs for a total of 72 of their 82 points. that means they only made 5 2-point jumpshots all game. very weird offense.
Stuckey isn't 6'5". I saw a picture of him standing next to Amir and there was like 8 inches separating them.
but amir is like 7'7" so that makes stuckey 6'11", which is great size for a PG
If you're calling it 8 inches, it was probably more like 6.
Quote of the day. That's it. Goodnight people! :winner_first_h4h:
ouch!!! judges ruling???keep the gloves up fellas
That's a fair shot. Bill stepped into it.
It's not the size of the dog in the fight. It's the size of the fight in the dog.

Witch HazelSkip to the navigation
Parts Used & Where Grown
Although native to North America, witch hazel now also grows in Europe. The leaves and bark of the tree are used in herbal medicine.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.

2 Stars
Cold Sores
Apply a cream containing 2% extract six times daily for three to eight days
Witch hazel has been shown in one study to reduce the size of cold sores and the spread of inflammation.
The proanthocyanidins in witch hazel have been shown to exert significant antiviral activity against herpes simplex 1 in the test tube.2 In a double-blind trial, people with acute cold sore outbreaks applied a topical cream containing 2% witch hazel bark extract or placebo six times a day for three to eight days.3 By the end of the eighth day, those using the witch-hazel cream had a pronounced and statistically significant reduction in the size and spread of the inflammation when compared to the placebo group.
2 Stars
Apply 10 to 20% herbal extract two to three times per day
A cream prepared with witch hazel and phosphatidylcholine has been shown to be effective in the topical management of eczema.

Follow label instructions
Frequently applying a product that contains witch hazel, an astringent herb, may help reduce symptoms.
Topically applied astringent herbs have been used traditionally as a treatment for hemorrhoids. A leading astringent herb for topical use is witch hazel,5 which is typically applied to hemorrhoids three or four times per day in an ointment base.
1 Star
Canker Sores
Refer to label instructions
Witch hazel is an astringent herb that can be used as a mouth rinse to soothe the pain of canker sores. The herb contains tannins that can bind up fluids and possibly relieve inflammation.
Historically, herbs known as astringents have been used to soothe the pain of canker sores. These herbs usually contain tannins that can bind up fluids and possibly relieve inflammation. They are used as a mouth rinse and then are spit out. None of these herbs has been studied in modern times. Examples of astringent herbs include agrimony, cranesbill , tormentil, oak , periwinkle , and witch hazel. Witch hazel is approved by the German Commission E for local inflammations of the mouth, presumably a condition that includes canker sores.
1 Star
Crohn's Disease
Refer to label instructions
Witch hazel is a tannin-containing herb that may be helpful to decrease diarrhea during acute flare-ups and has been used for this purpose in traditional medicine.
Tannin-containing herbs may be helpful to decrease diarrhea during acute flare-ups and have been used for this purpose in traditional medicine. A preliminary trial using isolated tannins in the course of usual drug therapy for Crohn's disease found them to be more effective for reducing diarrhea than was no additional treatment.6 Tannin-containing herbs of potential benefit include agrimony (Agrimonia spp.), green tea , oak , witch hazel, and cranesbill . Use of such herbs should be discontinued before the diarrhea is completely resolved; otherwise the disease may be aggravated.
1 Star
Refer to label instructions
Astringent herbs such as witch hazel have been traditionally used for heavy menstruation.
Cinnamon has been used historically for the treatment of various menstrual disorders, including heavy menstruation.7 This is also the case with shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris). 8 Other herbs known as astringents (tannin-containing plants that tend to decrease discharges), such as cranesbill , periwinkle , witch hazel, and oak , were traditionally used for heavy menstruation. Human trials are lacking, so the usefulness of these herbs is unknown. Black horehound was sometimes used traditionally for heavy periods, though this approach has not been investigated by modern research.
1 Star
Varicose Veins
Refer to label instructions
Witch hazel may be applied topically to treat varicose veins.
Although witch hazel is known primarily for treating hemorrhoids , it may also be useful for varicose veins.9 Topical use of witch hazel to treat venous conditions is approved by the German Commission E, authorities on herbal medicine.10 Application of a witch hazel ointment three or more times per day for two or more weeks is necessary before results can be expected.
1 Star
Wound Healing
Refer to label instructions
Witch hazel can be used topically to decrease inflammation and to stop bleeding.
Comfrey has anti-inflammatory properties that may decrease bruising when the herb is applied topically.11 Comfrey is also widely used in traditional medicine as a topical application to help heal wounds.12 Witch hazel can also be used topically to decrease inflammation and to stop bleeding.13 Native Americans used poultices of witch hazel leaves and bark to treat wounds, insect bites, and ulcers.14 Horsetail can be used both internally and topically to decrease inflammation and promote wound healing.15
Traditional Use (May Not Be Supported by Scientific Studies)
Native Americans used poultices of witch hazel leaves and bark to treat hemorrhoids , wounds , painful tumors, insect bites, and skin ulcers.1
How It Works
How It Works
Tannins and volatile oils are the main active constituents in witch hazel. These constituents contribute to the strong astringent effect of witch hazel. Pharmacological studies have suggested that witch hazel strengthens veins and is anti-inflammatory.16 , 17 Topical creams are currently used in Europe to treat inflammatory skin conditions, such as eczema . One double-blind trial found that a topical witch hazel ointment (applied four times per day) was as effective as the topical anti-inflammatory drug bufexamac for people with eczema.18 However, another trial found that witch hazel was no better than a placebo when compared to hydrocortisone for people with eczema.19 Witch hazel is approved in Germany for relief of local mouth inflammations such as canker sores .
How to Use It
A tea of witch hazel can be made by steeping 2-3 grams of the leaves or bark in 150 ml of boiled water for 10 to 15 minutes.20 The tea can be drunk two to three times daily between meals. A tincture, 2-4 ml three times per day, is also occasionally used.
In combination with warm, moist compresses, witch hazel extracts can be applied liberally at least twice each day (in the morning and at bedtime) on hemorrhoids . For other skin problems, ointment or cream can be applied three or four times a day, or as needed.21
Interactions with Supplements, Foods, & Other Compounds
Witch hazel should not be taken internally in combination with medications, supplements or herbs containing alkaloids, as the tannins in witch hazel may interfere with absorption.
Interactions with Medicines
Side Effects
Side Effects
With internal use, witch hazel may cause stomach irritation and cramping.22
There are no known restrictions to the internal use of witch hazel during pregnancy or breast-feeding.23

Hi guys, new to the forum as i stumbled upon it whilst i was researching my Boba Fett costume im currently working on for Halloween.
My question is this: What plastics would people suggest to use for the armor sections that can be used easily and with the least amount of technical skill?
Im comfortable heating up plastics with water and a blowgun but im not going all out and making a vacum molder just for this one project - so i need it to be able to be done in a typical house.
Iv come across a plastic called sintra in the US but it must go by a different name here in the UK, or any other suggestions people might have would be appreciated - preferably with places that it can be bought from/ordered off the net in small numbers.
Thanks again - Chris.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
It sounds like you have a lot more research on GSD to do before deciding to bring one home. This forum is a great resource to learn but I would also get some books and contact a responsible breeder.
It took my husband and I years of waiting before introducing a puppy into our home and we have 2 kids. (Just got him last year.) We waited until our youngest was 5 years old and after we got him I kept telling myself that I was SO GLAD I waited. There were even times when I felt like maybe we should have waited yet one more year. Knowing that you have several children under 5 years of age, I would highly recommend waiting. A puppy is a baby. A dog is a child. That's the way I see it. Puppies have to go out every few hours when learning to potty train and have constant monitoring. I would consider those things for a long time before deciding to bring a dog home and better yet, I suggest taking care of someone's dog for a couple weeks. Maybe you can even find a puppy to care for to really see how it works in your family.
Shedding is a non issue for me because all dogs shed. Yes some more than others but they all shed. So regardless of breed, if you're considering getting a dog, expect to deal with it for years to come.
I will say that one thing that makes raising a puppy so much easier is to utilize crate training but that doesn't take away from the overal responsibilities.
Oh they shed like mad!
My friends GSD was over for the weekend, and I couldn't wait to get rid of them to sweep, mop and vacuum. There were tumbleweeds of hair everywhere! Some are worse than others though.
Mine isn't too bad, but she's black and has a tight coat, so maybe I just don't see the hair was much, and she's also young, so maybe once she's full grown it will get worse. I also brush her daily.
I love GSD's but they are honestly some of the worst shedders I've ever seen!
As mentioned, get one from a good breeder. Training classes are a must and it's SO IMPORTANT to start socializing them right away! They can be suspicious, so you need to really work on socializing them with everything and everyone. Just read all the behaviour, development/socialization and aggression threads to get an idea of some of the challenges you can face with them sometimes.
I socialized the heck out of my puppy and I still have some issues, it's really a lot of hard work, which might be a challenge if you're busy with young kids. 8-16 weeks is the most important time for this, so you really need to start right away.
|The Best Home Alarm System Money Can Buy - USA Carry
I confess I haven't read all 7 pages, so forgive me if this has been suggested already. Have you considered finding a few breeders that you like, that are responsible and ethical and most importantly, educated in the breed with TIME in the breed, and asking them if they have a young adult, or even just a middle-aged dog that needs placing? This can REALLY be a godsend for you. A good breeder seems to always have an adult that passes through that needs a new home. Many of these dogs will be excellent with children. Some may not be, and so this is why you need a breeder you can trust. There are people on this forum that may be able to suggest breeders near you to start with.
An adult dog will be MUCH easier for you to integrate, and believe me---the bond will be just as great as it would be with a puppy. Possibly greater, because there won't be any resentment with all the time a puppy will take. My kids are now 13, 14 and 17, and my pup just turned 17 months. He is not my first dog, nor my first puppy, nor my first GSD. And still, there were nights I laid awake wondering what the heck I had done to myself and my life. My kids are extremely dog savvy, too, and helped a LOT.
Consider finding a well-bred, trained, mature GSD from a breeder. It could be perfect for you all.
|you are wise to be considering this so carefully. imho (six decade history with the breed, parents were breeders, grandfather was an importer), in your current situation (too many young children), you should not be getting a shepherd puppy especially at christmas time. lots of health issues in the breed. lots of work training. lots and lots of time needing to be spent. hard on the kids, hard on the puppy, really REALLY hard on you. if i were in your situation i'd be looking for a healthy mixed breed adult rescue, that was proven good with children, and who didn't require the time and energy necessary to raise and train a shepherd puppy.
|My trainer has Leonbergers. Yeah, huge hairy dogs. She lamented one day, and guess who's shedding? Yup, the ancient GSD. She said she was worse (shedding) than all the Leos.
Like everyone has said: They DO shed a lot.
My previous dog was a sheltie that seemed to shed at least three more dogs' worth of hair per week.
...He was a shedding anomaly. After him, Gabe's hair is a bit of a relief. But to a normal household, it would seem like a lot of hair.
Well, personally I love GSD's and I think it's not quite so hard to raise a GSD pup as many here on many occasions make it out to be, and I love the enthusiasm for the breed of the likes of Kelina.
But if it was me in your shoes...
No way.
And you've gotten some really good advice here, but the fact is that you can probably live with house-breaking, and with shedding. But understand that that 8 week old puppy you're looking at won't be an 8 week old puppy very long.
And overnight, she's not going to be a year-and-a-half old settled adult either.
In between that she's going to be a very rambunctious juvenile. She's going to be 50-70 pounds of high-energy legs, muscle and body in constant motion. She's going to be a nearly full-grown dog that thinks she's still a puppy. She's going to think your kids are her litter-mates, and she's going to 'play' with them as if they are. This means being 'excited' when they come home and running up and jumping on them. Running and jumping with paws that come equipped with sharp toenails that she's going to hate for you to cut. And there will be a time the only real way you can handle all that excitement is simply to tire her out. It sounds to me like there's just you. All those kids to take care of and tire out a GSD juvenile to boot?
I wouldn't wish that on any one.
I wouldn't do it in your situation. I can't even imagine trying.
Good luck if you do, to you, your kids and the dog. You'll all need it.
I am having to vacuum Hans's Kuranda bed twice a day because he is currently shedding so much.
Until now, it was OK, but recently there is a lot of hair!
The shedding coincided with me running out of Feedsentials. Two weeks later, hair everywhere and he is scratching a lot! I don't know if it is dietary or he is just blowing coat.

Arsenal in Community coaches visit Leitrim
The Goal for Peace Project, a cross community and cross-border initiative in Ireland, welcomed two Arsenal in the Community coaches to Leitrim on Sunday May 27. This is the coaches' second visit to the county, having previously visited the region in October 2011.
The project, which launched in 2010, aims to build relations between children and adults from Catholic and Protestant backgrounds through the medium of football by bringing clubs and schools together.
Arsenal in the Community coaches spent three days with the project and undertook a variety of activities to reach out to individuals who enjoy the game and understand its unique power to bring people together. On their first day, the coaches led a coaching clinic in Manorhamilton. They demonstrated a number of drills and coaching games to the participants including shooting, ball control and reaction drills.
Jack Ironside, one of the Arsenal coaches said: "The key to these drills is that they are simple to pick up but are suitable for youth and adult teams."
There are currently 10 schools and seven clubs from County Leitrim and County Fermanagh involved in the project, with around 160 students currently participating in the scheme.
Damon Kearney, FAI Development Officer for County Leitrim, assisted the session and said: "Football coaches can easily adapt the drills to suit their own particular players in their respective teams."
On Monday 28th and Tuesday 29th May the Arsenal community coaches held a workshop and coaching session for the 10 schools involved in the project. Eight schools from Leitrim and two schools from Fermanagh came together in Leitrim Village over the course of the two days.The students rotated through various stations on the pitch designed to improve passing, shooting and control skills.
Over the two days the children also completed a social inclusion workshop which included discussions on the various nationalities and cultural background of players in the Arsenal squad who all come together to play in a team. Jack McNicholl from Arsenal in the Community said: "This workshop helps students understand how people from different cultures, religions and nationalities can work together to form a successful team on the pitch."
The coaches also made a visit to Carrick on Shannon Community School where they gave a presentation to transition year students. The presentation gave students an insight into the work Arsenal carries out in it local communities. The students were also given information on the Arsenal Gap Year Internship, a programme run by Arsenal in the Community that gives students an opportunity to get involved in coaching in schools and community projects in locations such as Kenya, Barbados and Israel.
During the trip, the coaches also travelled to Drumshanbo where they gave a talk on some of their education programmes, in particular the Arsenal Double Club, which teaches both academic subjects teamed with soccer skills to primary and secondary schoolchildren.
Goal for Peace Co-Ordinator Gordon Burke said: "We were delighted to welcome the Arsenal in the Community coaches back to Leitrim. Arsenal have been highly successful in developing sports-based social inclusion and education programmes in London and further afield. The coaches visiting us are involved in implementing many of these projects and some of their work has similar goals to our own. We felt it was important to build on our relationship with the Arsenal community coaches, which will help children from the schools in Leitrim and Fermanagh advance their soccer skills and at the same time improve their awareness of religious and cultural diversity."
The coaches that visited Leitrim are vastly experienced in rolling out a variety of community initiatives and their organised work at the Club has been in place for over 25 years, even though Arsenal's good work in its community dates back to its earliest beginnings.
Since 1985 more than one million participants have benefited from various Arsenal in the Community schemes.

I heard a lots of Buddhists eat a diet including animals and their products.

"The hippie-mind is only one hair's-breadth away from enlightenment."
True hippies have no hindrance. If I have no money, that's okay. If I don't have a house or a bed, that's okay. I can sleep anywhere, I can eat any food. My whole life is freedom. I am free to do anything. Having no hindrance means not being attached to anything. So this hippie-mind is very good; it is a very high-class mind. But many young people are attached to hippie-style or natural-style living. This is no good. If you are attached, then hippie-style becomes a hindrance. You must cut off all thinking and all desires for yourself. Then you will soon attain enlightenment. The hippie-mind is only one hair's-breadth away from enlightenment. If a hippie could cut off his attachment to being a hippie, he would soon discover, 'Oh, this is enlightenment!' One of my first students in America had very long blond hair, which he wore in a pony-tail. One day I said to him, 'I think it would be good if you cut your hair.' He said, 'No no, I like my hair the way it is.' I said, 'If you are attached to your hair, you cannot attain enlightenment.' 'Okay, then I will cut my hair.' 'Fine. Now you don't need to cut it.' So he learned that being a true hippie is having no attachments. Afterwards, he did hard training and soon understood.
Seung Sahn (Korean Zen Master)
a. Followers of the Way, the leaver-of-home must study the Way. I
myself was formerly interested in the Vinaya and diligently studied the
Sutras and Treatises. Then I realized that they were only drugs
suitable for appeasing the ills of the world, only relative theories. At
one stroke I threw them away, set myself to learn the Way, started
Zen training and met great teachers. Only then did my eye of the Way
begin to see clearly, and I was able to understand all the old masters
and to know the false from the true. Man born of woman does not
naturally know this. But after long and painful practice, one morning it
is realized in one's own body.
b. Followers of the Way, if you wish to see this Dharma clearly, do not
let yourselves be deceived. Whether you turn to the outside or to the
inside, whatever you encounter, kill it. If you meet the
Buddha, kill the Buddha; if you meet the patriarchs, kill the patriarchs; if you meet
Arhats, kill Arhats; if you meet your parents, kill your parents; if you
meet your relatives, kill your relatives; then for the first time you will
see dearly. And if you do not depend on things, there is deliverance,
there is freedom!
c. Of those followers of the Way who come (to me) from everywhere
to learn the Way, there is none who does not depend on things.
Whatever they bring before me, I beat it down at once. If it is in the
hands, I beat it in the hands; if it comes from the mouth, I beat it
there; if through the eyes, I beat it in the eyes. Up till now there has
not been one who could stand alone. All fall into the traps of the old
I have no Dharma to give to men. I only cure diseases and undo
knots. Followers of the Way who come from everywhere, try not to
depend on anything. I only want to ponder this matter with you. See,
for ten or fifteen years I have not found one single man. All are like
hobgoblins lurking in thickets or on trees, wild fox sprites — mouthing
clods of filth, they struggle in confusion. Blind old rascals who unduly
squander alms given them by the faithful, and who declare loudly: "I
have left home!" That is how they see it.

Washington University in St. Louis' campuses are located near the cultural center of St. Louis, surrounded by and adjacent to museums, performance venues, vibrant entertainment and dining districts, one of the nation's largest civic parks, and beautiful, tree-lined neighborhoods rich in history and diversity. The campuses are well-served by the region's light rail and bus service, and have easy access to major interstate highways.
Washington University is easy to visit and, once you arrive, you'll find a welcoming, open community that is an integral part of the St. Louis region.
Danforth Campus
The 169-acre Danforth Campus, bordered by Forest Park and the cities of St. Louis, Clayton and University City, is at the heart of Washington University and is the academic home to the majority of the university's undergraduate, graduate and professional students. Featuring predominantly Collegiate Gothic architecture in its academic buildings — several of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places — the campus is at once reminiscent of great European universities and a forward-looking center of academic excellence, cutting-edge research and creativity. Included on the campus are several complexes of modern student residence houses, dining facilities and student activity centers.
Because of its accessible and welcoming nature, as well as its proximity to Forest Park, the Danforth Campus is often visited by out-of-town guests as well as those from the neighborhoods surrounding the campus who seek cultural enrichment in its many arts and education offerings, as well as a quiet, safe place to walk and bike. Very soon, the campus will be connected to a region-wide network of bike trails that stretch from the Mississippi to the Missouri Rivers and beyond. Since there is no traffic inside the Danforth Campus, it is also a great place to bring children and pets.
Edison Theatre, is one of the Danforth Campus' chief cultural draws. It is home to professional, student and community theater, and music and dance productions, including the highly acclaimed Ovations and Ovations for Young People series. These showcase touring artists and both national and international companies. Edison also serves as a teaching and performance facility for the university's Performing Arts Department, which boasts its own black box theater in the same complex. Tickets can be purchased online, by mail, by phone or in person. Schedule and ticket information.
The Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum, located on the eastern edge of the Danforth Campus, is part of the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts. The museum, designed by world-renowned architect Fumihiko Maki, contains holdings dating back to 1881 with the founding of the St. Louis School and Museum of Fine Arts at Washington University. It is now one of the finest university collections in the United States, with strong holdings of 19th-, 20th-, and 21st-century European and American paintings, sculptures, prints, installations and photographs. Admission is free, and special exhibitions change every few months.
Washington University's art and cultural life begins with these signature buildings and programs, but it extends to regularly scheduled concerts, plays, exhibits, lectures, sporting events and other activities at a wide array of locations, including Graham Chapel, Olin Library and the recently renovated 560 Music Center, located just north of the campus near the University City Loop, one of the region's most diverse, colorful and exciting entertainment, arts and dining destinations.
Medical Campus
On the eastern edge of Forest Park is the 164-acre Washington University Medical Center that spreads over portions of 17 city blocks and is home to the Washington University School of Medicine and its affiliated hospitals, clinics, patient care centers and research facilities. Consistently ranked as one of the most respected medical schools in the country, the School of Medicine has a rich history of success in research, education and patient care. The school pioneered bedside teaching and led in the transformation of empirical knowledge into scientific medicine. From its earliest days, the leaders of the school have held that "investigation and practice are one in spirit, method and object."
The Medical Campus is located in the city's vibrant Central West End, home to some of the region's best shopping and restaurants.
Other Campuses
The University has several smaller campuses, including West and South Campuses in Clayton, North Campus in St. Louis, 560 Music Center and Lewis Center in University City, as well as the University's 2,000-acre Tyson Research Center that lies about 20 miles to the southwest. In total, more than 2,000 acres and more than 150 major buildings comprise the University.

AMES, Iowa — All facilities that manufacture, process, pack or hold food (human and animal) within the United States are required to register with the Food and Drug Administration in accordance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) signed into law January 2011. The registration renewal is a biennial requirement and must be completed by Dec. 31, 2012.
The FDA registration renewal can be completed online at https://www.access.fda.gov/oaa/. An Iowa State University Extension and Outreach team of Iowa Grain Quality Initiative and Food Science specialists has prepared a Web-based tutorial to assist facilities in the re-registration process. The tutorial is available at https://connect.extension.iastate.edu/p6xjpfazy65/ and www.iowagrain.org.
"While many of the Food Safety Modernization Act regulations are expected to be announced in the near future, certain actions are already required by the law. One of those is the registration and re-registration of food handling facilities," said Charles Hurburgh, Iowa Grain Quality Initiative professor-in-charge. "This tutorial is a guide through the registration process."
Through FSMA, the FDA has been given wide latitude in creating preventative actions plans, the recall of potentially hazardous products and other actions intended to support safe foods, Hurburgh said. FSMA will apply to all grain handlers, processors, haulers and feed mills. The extent of the application to each type of facility will not be known until the rules are released.
"One thing we do know is everyone in the bulk grain industry must have a verified food safety preventive action plan," said Angela Shaw, extension food safety specialist. "Verified means facilities must demonstrate the ability to prove the effectiveness of prevention and control of food safety concerns on an ongoing basis."
The team led by Shaw and Hurburgh has created a checklist to assist facilities in assessing present food safety preparedness. The food safety plan checklist is a guide for future development. It is not an audit outline, nor is it the structure of the coming regulations. It can help facilities identify risks and potential food safety gaps in their operations, Shaw said. The checklist can be downloaded from the Iowa Grain Quality website, www.iowagrain.org, under the FDA-FSMA, Grain Handling and Processing tab.
"Our team is committed to the bulk grain industry and works to ensure that facilities have the educational material to be prepared for new food regulations," said Shaw.
For further information, contact Shaw at 515-294-0868 or email@example.com ; contact Hurburgh at 515-294-8629 or email@example.com.

Stephen Baldwin Arrested for Tax Evasion in New York
After being charged with aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle in August, Stephen Baldwin faced Johnny Law again on Thursday (December 6).
The "Usual Suspects" star reportedly failed to file New York State income taxes for 2008, 2009, and 2010. According to the state, the 46-year-old actor owes over $350,000 in back taxes.
According to District Attorney Thomas P. Zugibe, "At a time when Rockland County and New York State face severe fiscal shortfalls, we cannot afford to allow wealthy residents to break the law by cheating on their taxes. The defendant's repetitive failure to file returns and pay taxes over a period of several years contributes to the sweeping cutbacks and closures in local government and in our schools."
If convicted, Stephen could face up to four years in prison. However, he pleaded not guilty to the charges and was released without bail.

I got some of the pkm's back from paint and started final assembly today, I really want to get these out the door. I had all the parts packed seperately for each gun and they not only mixed them all up they tore down some of the parts even further, creating a bigger job for me.
Hopefully I will have these 4 done by the end of the day tomorrow.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Hi All..
im currently doing some research for my dissertation.. basically im looking into how people make zines today compared to before when it was strictly photocopiers and staples!
if anyone (anyone at all!) would mind answer 3 little questions i would be beyond thankful!
.. here they are!
1. Do you use any digital processes in making your zines? If so, what are they?
2. Why do you make zines when you can just put the same information onto a blog or website?
3. How long do you keep any zines you have bought?
thanks so much
Views: 523
Undergrad dissertation? PhD dissertation? Sociology, history, literature...? Have you read any of the topics on here about the subject? Do you make zines yourself?
I don't mean this to be antagonistic but I think maybe a bit more information would encourage people to answer.
I'm studying Illustration at Cambridge school of Art and i'm am in my 3rd year.
I do make zines myself yes. I personally like to make them the old fashioned way using a photocopier and hand stitching them together. i don't use any computers to create them.
I would be really really grateful for any reply. Thank a lot, Laurie x
I type many of my zines on Dell 1998 Dell computer, with Word 97. I never learned how to do "desktop publishing", that is, scanning, photo layout & manipulation onscreen, etc. I'm thinking of maybe trying it some day, but what little attempts I've made at it have been hopelessly frustrating and confusing. I'm not sure if it's worth all the time & trouble. There are a lot offers for "free e-zines" on this site. I can't enjoy reading a screen, and half the time I can't figure out how to print them out, so I just ignore them. I wonder how many others do the same.
I do have a blog on We Make Zines and sporadically make entries in it so it's not an either/or proposition. I have forum comments all over the place. I get very few responses & when I do, they're usually not very long. When you write a blog, you "agree to" a contract which says that you don't own your own writing. I've plowed through a few contracts I've printed out and you pretty much saw that the agreement is overwhelmingly in their favor. Most sites that "host" your writings can come in and censor and even delete anything you write. The can "flag" them for controversial words and censor you. Sometimes it's just a mindless program that does that. The Internet's very controlling and nosy.
Further, there's something that seems slower and more focusing in doing a zine the old fashioned way. As I said, I know how to do it. I'm in control & don't have to wrestle with all the do's and don't, often confusing to me, the Internet rigidly requires. Further, I believe in helping prisoners and others who have little or no access to the Internet. We seem to think more alike. We're both marginal each in our own way. It's hard to really explain. I just get the sense that Internet publishing is mostly a bunch of shallow, jabber, jabber, jabber, and I don't think people who prefer really want to read my writings. I suspect that people who prefer ordering a zine and getting it in the mail are a bit more appreciative. I'm like that on the Net a lot too. I just quickly surf and pick through, much like the old "channel surfing" of days gone by. That's not good, indeed, there's a certain desperate boredome to it, but that's the behavior the Net for some unknown reason seems to instigate.
God, I've got boxes and boxes and boxes from decades back, including a little box of treasures I'm sure nobody even remembers but which I really liked. There are blogs that had some good writings which I fortunately printed out that I'm sure have totally dropped off the Net and aren't even cached anymore, but then maybe I'm just not savvy enough to find them.
Here are a few discussions that go into your questions:
Thanks for the reply Laurie. One more question: what's the deadline on answering this, so that people don't keep providing you with answers after you've handed your essay in?
1. I write the articles for my zines in OpenOffice. I then print them off, cut them out, and stick them onto a separate page so that the pages will all be in the right order to photocopy. I've never been able to figure out how to do all that Photoshop malarkey. When there are drawings in my zines they're ones I've done by hand directly on to the page. I think the photocopiers at the copy shop I use might also be digital rather than xerographic but I don't have much involvement in that. Finally, I'll often use email to arrange trades and contact distros.
2. I agree with a lot of what James has said here. Not everyone has access to the internet. I'm lucky enough to, but the time I spend at the library is usually for looking for jobs, emailing people, etc rather than putting out a blog. While I do have a blog I use it for occasional updates about my zine rather than publishing my articles, which often run over two thousand words and are therefore easier to read on paper. The things I'm writing aren't really suitable for a blog format where anyone can come along and read what you've written. I think that if you've traded or been given a zine, you're going to be more careful with it than if you've been sent a link, which you can then share with countless other people.
3. I've never thrown a zine away, although I've given some of my old ones to friends in the past.
1. I'm all digital. I don't have enough skill or physical creativity to make a zine completely by hand. With that said, I am going to start experimenting with handwritten articles and sketches then scanning them in. So my workflow is kinda simple. I use Wordpress as my workflow management system. Stories got in, they get edited and prepped for web and print. The assets are kept there and in my dropbox acct. Then I fire up pages and edit the story there and then to my in-house printing press.
2. For me, it's a combo. Because I feature artists, sometimes they want a printed copy. But in truth, I just have a profound respect for zines in general so I do both.
3. I've been a LOOOOONG admirer of the idea of zines. When I would find them I would just become so inspired even when the content was completely off-center or made almost no sense to me at all. But when ever I found these gems, I would hold on to them with dear life. I've read almost none of them, I just appreciate the amount of effort and the passion behind them more than I love the content.
1. Yes, for decades
2. Paper is better for absorbing information. The internet is more for scanning information
3. everything since 1980 is archived in the TAM-Archive. For exhibition the archive is used as well.
Ruud Janssen
I could write a much longer and more rambling answer but you can always get that off me later if you want.
Brief as I can make it:
1 - not if I can help it. Pritt stick, scissors, pens and laying things out on a table is a far more satisfying way to do it, and it matches how I think - I feel at peace when I work that way. Whereas whatever I do on a computer is clunky and dependent on other machines/gadgets/online timings and ways of working. I can only use digital tools when I know (by the hands-on process, above) what I want. So yes a digital photo with the contrast exagerrated, a print-out of some text from a word document, will then get pritt-sticked on somewhere. Sometimes pictures will get scanned. But no, no publisher, photoshop or other intelligent digital process. A good example is the 'wor diary' i do with 3 dozen other people up here, which the printers (I know) would much prefer to be a digital file so it can talk to their machine in a language it understands and not have to go thru their human eyes and fingers, but instead I send them a wodge of variably sized prittstick-heavy papers. Images at http://wordiary.org I s'pose even a photocopier is digital really, though...
2 The web doesn't really exist. Talking to somebody at a computer is not talking to a person. Things picked up in a pub, from a bus seat, at a friend's house are actual real parts of our world. We are not evolved to sit all day staring and tapping with 2% of our muscles and coordination engaged. It's unavoidable, I know, for work and communication and everything now, but breaking out of this little rut that we've collectively chosen to imprison ourselves in is good. The more overbearing computer drudgery is, the more valuable are the things that help us break out of it. Zines help you do that, especially free ones left in public. I think it's like the case with postcards too - postcards have travelled, emails have not. And any fuckers out there who only advertise their events on facebook, they are missing the beauty and contribution and opportunity that hand-making a poster and sticking it up in a public place gives to society. Our images should be on the walls, they should not be reserved for profiteering adverts and psych-manipulation.
3. Indefinitely. Same for the ones I've picked up free, swapped, or found. Zines are smaller than books so I don't need to get rid of them as often. If I don't ralate to anything at all in one, or there's just a single image or line of text I like, then I cut that out and stick it in my diary scrapbook. But if the zine is complete as an interesting object, it stays with me until I'm dead.
love Mike
1. Yes. Word Processor, library printer, photoshop
2. Because I want to make the kind of thing I would want to read. I am 500x more likely to read your zine if you hand one to me than I am to read your blog if you email me a link to it.
3. Forever, except for ones I give to people. Even if it sucks I keep it.
1. Up until the last zine, no, it was all typewritten and cut and paste. For the last one, because I wrote it when we were moving out of our place and my typewriters were packed (plus I couldn't write at the house with all the boxes), I used a computer. I still cut and pasted the actual text and hand-drawn illustrations, though. I may switch to computer text, it really is a lot easier to photocopy.
2. I do write blogs. I consider the kind of things I write in a zine to be different -- not worse or better, but different -- than a blog. For one thing, zines aren't topical, so if I want to write about a recent news story, I'm better off blogging it. But zines are timeless, you can write something in a zine now and in ten years it will still be there. This influences what I write because I try to make it more... I guess "narrative" is the word. On my blogs I mention anecdotes, in my zine I talk about history. But yeah, basically I consider them qualitatively different things that aren't really meant to be conflated (even if many zinesters write blogs and vice versa).
3. Some forever. But most get donated to a zine library after I've read them. I've only ever thrown away like three zines because they were offensive (neo-Nazi, jokes about rape... like, really?). I just don't have the space to keep every zine forever. Right now my "permanent collection" is around 100 zines.
Hope this helps!
1. Yep! I use Pages, which is surprisingly good for laying things out, it feels professional, without the serious hubbub and knowledge needed by more, erm, adult design programs. I've tried using Gimp and Adobe things, but honestly, it's a differently feeling.
2. I really love the physical aspect of printing and binding. I have my awl, hundreds of stamps and inks, some letterpress letters, all that stuff, I really love it. I just got into binding empty journals into hardcover novels and children's books. I see it as a piece of art, I really enjoy making the books!
3. I've only gotten rid of a few, ever. Most I keep, or give to others, or give to people who are just getting into zines.

It might be cool to have a box just for collector value if nothing else. I never did get any of the ridiculous Zombie stuff though,,, how stupid was that??!!! Oh well,,, a fool, and there money ya know!! Zombies,,,,,, gezzzzz,,give me a break!!
A box of the drone stuff would make a neat political statement though and may be me at least worth getting one box to display on the shelf,,just for shits and giggles!!!!!
Isn't free market trade a wonderful thing? What will they think of next? LOL!!!
And I though this was an April fools joke - Years of research and development have gone into these highly effective 12 gauge shells that can turn even Joe Bidens double barrel shotgun into an instant anti-aircraft platform. Specially formulated propellant is capable of launching 9 pellets of depleted uranium rounds up to 1 km straight up into the air. With accurate shot placement, this armor piercing buckshot will disable vital systems on modern military drones.

I am waiting on my TK armor from AP and I would like to do another Star Wars costume. I have my Jurassic Park Velociraptor costume. I was reading through some Star Wars lore to find that a Velociraptor race did exist in the Star Wars universe. the Tiss'shar. http://starwars.wiki...iki/Tiss%27shar
"Tiss'sharl was a planet in the Xappyh sector, located in the Outer Rim Territories. Sometime prior to 3,976 BBY, Mandalore the Ultimate ordered the Mandalorians to expand outward. Among the peoples they discovered were the Tiss'shar, many of whom became recruits among the Mandalorians, who had begun to accept members of non-Taung races."
Here is a pic of my Jurassic park Costume. Any idea how I can Mando her up?

Snowflake OrnamentAdded by Stampin' Up! Category : Papercrafting&gifts Difficulty : In a Snap (Easy)
• Holidays Sweet Pressed Cookie Stamps
Stampin' Up! Accessories
• Salt dough
Salt Dough Recipe
• 1 cup salt
• 1 cup plain flour
• Up to 1 cup of water (add gradually)
Combine the salt and flour, and then pour in the water gradually, stopping when it has become dough-like and not too sticky. There should be no residue left on your fingers when you touch it. Knead it on a floured surface for a few minutes to make it soft, workable, and stretchy.
Take a small ball of dough and press it with the Sweet Pressed Cookie Stamp. Poke a straw through the center, near the top, so that ribbon can be threaded through later. Cut it out and lay it on a non-stick cookie sheet. Cook on VERY low heat (around 202° F or 94° C) for up to 3 hours. If the ornament is over 1 cm thick, it will probably need to be turned over during cooking.

Touch is a great way of interfacing with products, as abundantly proved by smartphones such as the Apple iPhone 4 and tablets like the excellent Asus Eee Pad Transformer. Unfortunately, we haven't found it as useful on most all-in-one (AIO) PCs we've looked at, as on an upright display it's more tiring than just using a mouse and keyboard.
HP looks set to change all that with its brand-new TouchSmart 610, which folds down to a comfortable 30 degrees for extended touch sessions. As it also throws in a Full HD 23in screen, multiple HDMI inputs, a Blu-ray player and digital TV tuner, USB 3.0 connectivity, a Core i5 CPU and 1.5TB of storage along with dedicated graphics, we're hopeful that this PC can finally take on the mighty 22in iMac for the sub-27in all-in-one crown.
As expected, compared to the sharp, aluminium lines of the iMac, the 610 doesn't quite hold up. However, as it's far more adjustable than the pitiful tilt of Apple's machines, your fingers will thank you for its lack of sharp edges – especially when carrying the PC between locations.
When put up against less premium rivals like the MSI Wind Top AE2400, its combination of matt black and glossy gunmetal grey is quite attractive. Only the glossy black stand, which matches little else about the PC, sticks out like a sore thumb. We wish HP had kept the finish more consistent. Build quality is excellent, with no unwanted flex or creak in the panels.
Thanks to its unique sliding hinge mechanism, which allows for its semi-horizontal positioning, the TouchSmart 610 is also height-adjustable in its upright mode - already a definite advantage over most AIO rivals. However, this is limited to raising the screen's base from 2.5 to 5.5cm off your desk. Height adjustments are also quite stiff, and you'll definitely need two hands to perform them. Tilt is far more forgiving and very generous.
Sliding the 610 into its 'easy-touch' position, meanwhile, is smooth but still takes a little effort. Also, it's important to ensure that you have enough free desk space in front of the machine, and that the mouse and keyboard are out of the way. We will cover what it is like to use the TouchSmart with your fingers later on in the review.
Last of all, unscrewing a section of the PC's base and re-attaching it to its rear allows it to act as a wall-mount. While this will doubtless have limited appeal, especially since you'd lose out on the machine's tilting ability, it's nevertheless a thoughtful inclusion.
Topping things off nicely, the 610 stays very quiet even under load.
On key features you say HDMI-out, under Cons you say no HDMI-out, which one is it?
Thanks for pointing that out, its now fixed. As it says in the review, the 610 has twin HDMI inputs but doesn't have HDMI-out.
The fan is too loud. I like to use my computer in peace and quiet, but the computer makes too much noise. I am going to return it to Costco this weekend. I need a computer to be whisper quiet, like my old HP Omni 100.
Come on guys, you have been given the £1200 1030 model by HP but are video reviewing it as if it is the £900 1000 model - big difference in processor and graphics speed .... might have made you a bit less keen if you had realised that !
