shrink wrap is a blog series about the games that I own but have unfortunately yet to get around to playing!
shrink wrap is a blog series about the games that I own but have unfortunately yet to get around to playing!
Honestly,I never thought I'd be this guy. I remember listening to IGN editors mention all of the time that they had games in shrink wrap laying around, that they bought them and never got around to starting them. I remember thinking this sounded ridiculous and like a great problem to have but now that I'm somehow there, I don't like it. Increasingly each year, I have less and less free time. As I've grown, I've been needing to spend much less time on playing games and much more on education, schooling, and other obligations. And when you see a game on the cheap... you've got to buy it! So here I am. And I figured I'd turn this into a blog series called Shrink Wrap where each one will be about one of the many games I've bought and yet to even open!
Conduit 2
This one's a particular shame if you ask me. I love Wii. A lot of other hardcore gamers hate on it (although I know there's a huge hardcore fan base out there) but it's controller is perfect for first person shooters in my eyes. And while the PS3 and 360 were known for their FPS's during their generation, Wii had some great ones! Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex Edition (COD 4 port) was my first FPS love on Wii. But before that, High Voltage Software promised they were creating the Wii's, "killer app," with their first person shooter, The Conduit. I spent a LOT of time with it, but ultimately wasn't a fan of it, though you could see the potential that was there. Potential that Conduit 2 supposedly delivered on in the classic it's-what-the-original-was-supposed-to-be style (according to critics and players alike). It definitely seems to deliver on the original promise of a graphically impressive and feature filled FPS on Wii in a very impressive way. I was hyped about it before release and definitely believe it'll be great once I play, but for some reason I didn't pick it up anywhere near release. I think that GoldenEye 007 (2010) came out around the same time (R.I.P. Eurocom) and I had gotten a PS3 around that time, as well. However, during a Cartridge Slot Podcast, I finally bought Conduit 2 used off of Huggie for about $20. It's been on my shelf ever since.
I want to get around to it pretty badly, but there are so many games, new and old, commanding my attention! It's got the hook that Wii's always had for me when it comes to FPS's. Pointer controls. I still hold that COD 4 is better on Wii than it's HD counterparts (call me crazy) and it's for this reason. I spent more time in that game than on any other on my Wii. And just about all of it was online with those beautiful pointer controls. As Conduit 2 is a Wii exclusive, it's supposed to look and run much better, as well. If Red Steel 2 (another Wii exclusive FPS using Wii Motion Plus aiming controls) is any indication, I'm in for a real treat. Plus, the campaign, multiplayer, and co-op all look so very fun. I really need to get around to this one sooner rather than later. I have huge respect for the team at High Voltage Software (congratulations on 20 years in the industry) because you can always tell that they're passionate about what they're doing (both from interviews and their finished products). I hope I have a blast with this game when I can find time to play it, my only regret is that I have probably missed the boat on what was probably an awesome online community playing multiplayer.
Until next Shrink Wrap blog,

Hey, everyone. A couple of days ago, I tweeted this:
#Ellie on her first car ride <3 Just recorded the first episode of #FaceButtons. I'll explain soon #myign #Wii #Brawl pic.twitter.com/LHezsu5eoh — Steven Gussman (@schwinn3) August 23, 2013
Well, now I'd like to start explaining. First, though, I need to address something else. You may notice some older posts and many images in old posts being removed. This will continue, and is just me fixing past mistakes to the best of my ability, and realigning myself to where I want to be. This goes not only for myign, but any site you may follow me on (Twitter, YouTube, etc.). If you liked any of my past work and it's now gone, I apologize. But I promise you'll like the content I create moving forward even more, and I'll be able to be far more proud of it. Everything I've done thus far, including Cartridge Slot Podcast, has been a learning experience and I strive to both improve what I create and myself. So let's get down to this new project. Face Buttons is something of a cross between a Podcast and a Let's Play. I'd been thinking about making something like this for a while, so when Eric approached me with a similar idea, we made it happen. Yesterday, we got our equipment together and recorded the very first episode to debut on YouTube after editing and such (we haven't even made the logo / promotional art yet). We talked games while playing one of my personal favorites, Super Smash Bros. Brawl. By "we," I mean Eric, Kelley, and myself. The plan is to have different people on from time to time depending on what we play. So please look forward to it, I'll have it up within the next two weeks (but I can't promise a date as this is one of the busiest weeks of my life with my first days of work, two college orientations, and a day of community service all in a row). Please tell your friends about the show and send us your suggestions; anything from what game to play next to suggesting I talk less would be much appreciated. If you don't feel like using the comments section (here, or on YouTube), tweet at me (and please follow me) on Twitter @schwinn3. Oh, and "Ellie" is my new (and first) laptop! I strapped her (in her backpack) in with a seat belt when Kelley drove us over to Eric's to record.
So that's that, subscribe to and watch my YouTube channel in the coming days (and you can bet I'll blog about it on here and send a link to anyone who comments on this) for when the first episode goes up. I'm tremendously excited and I hope you guys are, too. I'm working very hard to make this a really great, fun show.
Have a truly great day,

In the middle of my second 36 hour fast - Friday night to Sunday morning. What I found, that is helping me duing the week(when I fast to 11am or 2pm-ish) is Zevia. I never realized such wonerful calorie, all natural soft drinks existed, until I saw Dr. Sara Soloment show Zevia and a couple other drinks. What I like about them, is that they seem to trick my stomach into believing that it is full enough, between my waking hours. The hardest part of fasting for me, is the hours when my body realizes I am awake and starts to growl. Even now my stocmach is growling, but I don't feel hungry or I've gotten used to feeling this way and water keeps hunger at bay. It might also be, that I am driven andsee my body slowly changing and just the slight ripple of my upper abs poking through, excites me to continue. I am two days away from my 48th birthday, the idea of having a six pack at this age(whenever I never have, even in my physical prime) is really exciting. How could I not want to show anyone willing to look, at that point of success? I would be a fool to not want it or not want to show my accomplishment.
No announcement yet.
Monk's Primal Journal
new posts
Just a quick note.
At the end of this last 336hour fast I weighed myself, came in at 170. Yesterday, on an empty stomach(fasted) I weighed in at 174, so I have lost about 3 to 4 pounds. I feel really good, sticking to more of a lean gains approach and still eating paleo/primal.
In a letter my mom sent me, she said a friend of hers started Paleo and loaned the book to my mom. Maybe now I can stop hearing her ask me if I am still on my Paleo diet.
Decmber was my post? wow, where does the time go? Still working with IF, but started to shift towards the Keto side of thise whole thing in the last week. Watched some videos, and have read alot, mostly from Dr.Phinney and Dr. Volek. The only real difference is that I am looking at carbs when I read lables, but I am used to reading labels already. Shifting to the higher fat, lower carb has been pretty easy and so far I have kept my carbs under 40grams a day. I do have some sauer kraut, but need to start eating more. I also will try taking some magnesium as I transition.
I think the biggest issue is letting my body transition and make my bowel movements as easy as possible, with less carbs. I think, even the bad carbs helped the BM and getting the body used to not having the large amount of carbs will be gradual, but manageable.
I have seen a weight gain, but the pictures tell a different story and my stomach looks a little thinner.
I cut back on the IF, but still won't eat until 8Am. I brought a feew packets of Almond Butter in to work to try and manage hunger, even though I have maanaged fairly well, probably because I have gotten used to IF ing. I am going more on, if I am hungry I will eat, choosing something with high fat, if it has carbs, I fit it into the 50grams a day box and think about the rest of the day. I don't want to spend alot of time thinking about carbs, but until I transition a bit more, I probably will. Obsess over them? No, just add them up and think about the food I have.
I will update here, because I have posted some of this stuff on FB for some reason, but there is none there who can relate to this. I'm okay with that, I like or don't mind being the oddball, if I can get the results I want from something.
Watching people give up on New years resolution is sad, when taking this whole thing on has been huge for me. I am far from done with my journey.
I have been playing with the idea s around sleep, using the orange lens glasses before going to bed and sleeping with a sleepmask. Creating natural melatonin etc to control my leptin levels is really interesting on top of sleeping much better.
Things are going pretty well, today my morning hunger wasn't too bad. If you have used IF before venturing into Ketogenic land, you have to retrain or relearn how to use IF on fewer carbs. That has been my experience so far, nearing the end of my second week. I am adjusting though and made it to past 11AM before eating a almond butter packet and a handful of almonds, right now I am sitting around minus 13carbs.
I am going to see if I can stay under 30carbs today, since I have gradually reduced them each day, as muchas I can.
The last two days I have eaten a couple moutfuls of sauer kraut and taken one tablet of magnesium. It is the first time i've ever taken magnesium. I think the combination of the kraut and magnesium have helped my BM. I don't know if this is the magnesium or just my body adjusting, but the first night I I woke up and felt very hot. It wasn't a feverish, sweaty hot, just hot. This morning I had this really jarring dream that felt lucid and stopped me suddenly, landing me in aother dream.
I have felt a little sniffly and a bit off, but energized in a different way. I searched for carb flu for those shifting from paleo to Ket and only found a site that the two were combined...tat works because that is more of what I'm shooting for.
Some of the things some forum say they eat under keto, are processed and I won't go that route. I do want to get Volek and Phinnye's books, because I agree with the work they have done.
Being one with a body that does put on weight/muscle easily I wonder where my carb level should be. Accoring to Dr. Phinney the highest range if 50carbs all the way down to 20 g. I did hop on the scale this morning just to see and my weight did come back down...but will keep taking pictures every week.
If I had gotten myself into ketosis before this morning, I knocked myself out of it. Too many carbs, decided to just reset and take my carbs lower tomorrow. I am going to shoot for 10carbs a day and lots of good fats. I was doing really well on both and will get adapted. The food I ate still fit into primal/paleo for the most part, just ran the carbs up to cope with various things, no biggie. I am very persistant and know why I am doing this and what I want to get out of living this way.
I had to listen to more "smoothy" talk, it's the new office "thing". My coworkers, from previous posts want to start doing smoothies. the Dorito chick has been talking about the smoothies etc for the last year. The other lady was over complicating the ingredients the one guy was suggesting. I doubt they will get very far with the whole thing, I just don't really want to listen to them. Do something already, talking and knowing about a healthier way of eating won't get you any where, you actually have to do it.
Oh, lol Dorito lady asked me why I stopped doing smoothies, I didn't even try and explain, I have told her about my IF. I either nap at lunch or now that I've hacked my sleep, I have been reading.
Doing well, being low carb after already making the swithc formCW eating to paleo, now shifting to LCHF primal, is very easy. Taking my daily magnesium and a couple mouthfuls of sauer kraut to help wih any possible constipation issues.
Yesterday, carbs were at or just under 20g, we had a work retirement potluck. Morning I ate some of my almonds about 7g worth. my meal, from the potluck was one piece of baked chicken, average portion of green beans, that had onions and cooked with bacon, so of course had to have some bacon and then four deviled eggs. Today I looked up Miracle whip to try and figure ot the carb count and four deviled eggs might be close to 2g max
Today, had soe heavy whipping cream and cocnut oil, when I first woke up. It is just before noon and grabbed four of the deviled eggs leftover, first carbs of the day. My hunger is leveing out very well. I did hop on the scale this morning and I might be down a pound or two.
Yesterday, I was just under 10g carbs. I had some pork rinds...not sure how they are viewed, being fried an dall. They don't have any additives and 0carbs. They may have given me gas, because this morning I couldn't tell if I was constipated or dealing with gas.
It does seem like it was gas now, that my morning has started.
Today I brought some hard boiled eggs. I did bring more stevia for my tea, but didn't feel like I wanted anything sweet. I am shooting for a 2g carb day, being the sauer kraut and maybe some sour cream.
I found this recipse for Psyllium husk flat bread, it would be a good way to provide fiber(on top of taking magnesium supplements). flat bread like this would give me more options for meals.
It's hard not to focus on belly fat, because it is right there, even if i am losing aft from every else. I try not to focus on it, but that's difficult. I will keep my carbs as low as possible and give my body fiber to deal with it.
I wondered about using stevia, I know alot of us use it, but reading about how our taste bud can turn the sweet signal and knock us out of ketosis is bothersome. then again I read the opposite too. Welcome to the land of experimentation.
Being any older male with a endomorph type body is challenging, but if this is going to work, I have to give it time.
Hit my goal yesterday of 2gcarbs for the day. I think my body is adjusting nicely, and making the gradual steps down on the carbs was a good idea. I do have the sniffles, started yesterday, I have hardly been sick, so I'm wondering if it is from ketosis. Curiousity makes me get on the scale, today the needle dropped down just about a pound less - I don't judge everything on that of course.
I don't know what my magic number is for ketosis, but it might be under ten. I know everyone's is different and I have no problem functioning at such a low carb number.
It was going to be another 1g carb day, but a coworker had ribs for lunch. I had dismissed the smell when I left work, until later tonight. I went to Rallys and got ten honey BBW wings...looked it up turns out to be 36g carbs. These were my only carbs today. I will keep shooting for days under ten gram or zero carb days. I don't have any idea if going into the mid-30s is good or bad for me. I don't want to obsess over carbs, just have goals to shoot for. If I can get the desired benefits shooting for these standards I will be happy.
Doing okay, sniffles are gone. Rainy cool day today, makes me not want to do much.Pictures looked okay, compared them to my one year progress pictures, better. My jeans are falling off my ass a little, so my belly will be the last, the one area I can't wait for it to shrink. Patience.
Adapting very well and the desire for sweetness has gone away, even the use of stevia. The work week has been lunches of soft boiled eggs and maybe some nuts in the morning that equal around 7-9g carbs. work had pizza and wings delivered I had two wings, got my carb total up to 15 with the sauer kraut at home, great day. weighed myself after a nap in the tub and I'm down a couple pounds
Steady at 170lbs that's a loss of 4lbs since starting the high fat low carb Primal. My appetite seems to fluctuate a bit, like today I ate but still felt hungry, so had some more almonds. I've kept my carbs under 20 for most of the week, today I think I will come in around the mid 20's. I have adjusted well, no sniffles and my BM's have gotten easier. I will probably add more carbs(still under 50) when I get to where I should be...but I'm not sure if that will at 150 like my BMI suggests.
I had gotten my weight down to 160 from pretty much starving myself on vegetables a few years ago, before adopting this great way of eating, but I know the difference between emaciated and lean.
Easter was awesome, but ate some casada cake. I stay away from deserts anymore and even stopped using stevia in my morning tea. Today I had zero carbs, it was tea, bacon and eggs and later today I got a stomach ache. I wondered if it was from reheating my eggs at work, but now I wonder if its keto flu. Just a couple minutes ago I started feeling chills. My FB people would respond with Likes lol but I think putting it on here makes more sense. My sounding board of thought.
Ate some sauer kraut and two baby dills...oh I did have a Bilberry kombucha, so right about 9g carbs for the day. This is the lowest carb day since Easter dinner. I have kept the carbs since Easter around 20-30g/day, but I believe my body needs 10g and under to stay in ketosis. My weight loss had stopped too, from mainting the 20-30g/day, hoping by dropping them down again, I'll lose again.
Today I decided to eliminate the dairy, that I have been eating for the fat content. Cheese, as much as it fills me up, my stomach doesn't really like it. Of course the scale isn't a good rule of thumb, but I have gained weight, since adding more high fat dairy to my diet. I know a Paleo LCHF choice is possible and that's the direction I'm going to.

SORRY, NO early check-ins, or early-arrival baggage storage.
We are on a peaceful family residential block that happens to be steps from everything. We have children and families living there, the fruit and vegetable carts calling out every morning. We seek travelers welcome to be a part of that but not disrespect it with noise and disruption. We are not for everyone, but we are very very special. Foodies, families, Girls weekends, Reunions. Beautiful complete rebuild of an historic 1840s New Orleans home. 4 blocks to Bourbon but retire to a peaceful beautifully renovated oasis.
The lower level has 12 ft high ceilings. We have been doing vacation rentals for 4 years but have just completed the complete renovation of this property October 1, 2013. We had several bookings before we were listed and photos were taken. It is an amazing experience in a fantastic location, steps from Storyville, Congo Square, Louis Armstrong Park, and Cafe du Monde is a 10 minute stroll. We are 4 blocks from Bourbon Street.
I used to be a travel journalist and believe the best way to experience a place is to live in a real neighborhood.
Dave Richard, Manager purchased this house in 2012
There is simply nothing remotely like it anywhere in the city. This is NOT a shotgun where you walk through each others bedrooms, in fact the bedrooms and bathrooms are massive by any standard. This is for the travelers who enjoy quiet at the end of a long day or night out on the town. SORRY, NO early check-ins, or early-arrival baggage storage.
QUIET just a stones throw from the heart of the city. Huge rooms, peace and quiet, a real neighborhood on the edge of all the tourism and noise.
I was so lucky to find this wonderful home. The home is renovated down to the last nail and it is lovely. This also means very clean, a biggie for me. The rooms are spacious, the windows let in lovely light throughout the day and the amenities are top notch. The location is ideal for the French Quarter and Marigny, really it is convenient to the whole town as it is located near bus service and the street car. A little walking might be in store to some locations, but its good to work off all the good food and drink! I had a rental car and was able to park in front of the house every day of the 30 I stayed. The linens are lovely and very clean. The kitchen is stocked with new dishes and cookware. There is a sweet, brand new laundry set up as well. Dave was the icing on the cake! He is a hardworking, patient, charismatic darling! He took care of all my needs very quickly. There was never an unanswered text or phone call. He ensured that I was well versed on the town as well. I got a locals guide straight from him! He is very particular about his guests and we had an in depth conversation before I rented to ensure I was the kind of person he wanted in his property. This is in a neighborhood and each resident expects respect of their personal privacy and comfort regarding noise and traffic. This is understandable and makes the location even more desirable for safety reasons as well as general warmth in spirit! As a single woman I felt safe and at ease on this 'up and coming' neighborhood street. A few families, lots of young couples and late 20, early 30 kinds of neighbors. I could not say more about this apartment. I will always look back fondly on my time (a whole month) in this apartment. Good memories and good sleep!
The professional management staff's communication was great and the property was even nicer than expected. It is close walking distance to eating, groceries, and about a 15 minute walk or 5 minute uber/taxi/drive to the French Quarter/Bourbon. The AC was on and ice cold when we got there, which was greatly appreciated stepping in from the muggy New Orleans summer weather.
We went for my sisters bachelorette party and it was perfect! The house was so cute and a perfect layout for our party. I would recommend the house to everyone!
We were a group of 10 and loved staying in this wonderful house. The location is fantastic, with just a short walk to the quarter, and lots of bars, shops and restaurants nearby. Dave and Shinda were easy to work with, and helped make our experience very smooth and easy.
Great spot and location for mardis gras (or any trip to NOLA for that matter). Its 15 min to bourbon street, maybe 20 from canal, which is nothing when you think about the the amount of walking we did each day. Close access to street car or bus off rampart if you are trying to quickly get to either canal or a cross street to the heart of bourbon (depending on parade schedule). Quiet neighborhood. I recommend because sometimes the chaos of bourbon street can be overwhelming so you are far enough to take a breather and get away, but close enough still close enough to all the action when you want to be. Even closer is frenchman street which is lively as well (maybe 10-15 min walk). We had the top two units. Everything was exactly how it was pictured, all utilities are in great condition (pretty much new) and the house was renovated well. Beds were comfortable, house has everything you could think of and more. Any questions we had the property manager would respond immediately. Everyone in the group talked about how they loved the place and that they were much happier we went with this option instead of cramming in a hotel room for the same price. Also, when I looked at a lot of the other properties available, they would often feel/look like hostels. This place was not that. It was accommodating, spacious, and truly felt like a home away from home.
We loved staying at this property. The units are beautiful, big and clean. Each of the layouts are a little unique, spacious and included everything we could have needed for our family get together in New Orleans. The neighborhood is also one of our favorites in NOLA. This property is within walking of the french quarter and fun of frenchman street but on a quiet little block away from it all. We didn't meet our host, Dave, directly, but he was great to work with throughout the whole process - very responsive and accommodating. I'd recommend this property to anyone visiting the ever enchanting New Orleans!
Clean inside and out. Our group rented the entire upstairs of this house. The main issue we had was a actual set up of the property.
Be aware the upstairs rental is actually two units with seperate entrances. There are two ways to get from one part of the rental to the other:
A) go down the back stairs, through an alley, onto the street, through the front door, and up the front stairs OR
B) Go through an emergency exit located outside the small units front door that leads straight into the main units bathroom (with 14 people in the main area there was almost never a time someone wasn't using the bathroom)
My husband and I were in the small seperate part of this property and we felt completely isolated from the rest of our group. To make matters worse, the 2nd bathroom that was supposed to be part of the rental was literally through our bedroom in our unit. This put us in an even more awkward situation. 14 ppl in our group were sharing one bathroom and we essentially had our own.
I was not the person that booked this property so it's possible the set up was disclosed to the renter...I just really really really wish I had known this was what we were getting into before we arrived. The set up of this house was awful and left us feeling left out and resented.
Other notes:
The Murphy bed shown in the pictures is in the smaller upstairs space and is almost unusable. Again the bathroom in this unit is through the main bedroom leaving whoever is sleeping on the Murphy bed without access to a bathroom. Unless you don't mind someone walking through your bedroom to use the bathroom don't consider this as a usable bed.
The door between our space and the main restroom doesn't have a key pad on it, just a deadbolt that locked from the inside of the bathroom. Because this house isn't in a great neighborhood, the deadbolt needed to be locked each night, further separating us from our group. For the first day and a half, this door was unusable. I don't know if this happens often but don't be surprised if this door is permanently shut.
The fan in our bedroom didn't work.
There's not nearly enough towels, blankets, or pillows for 16 people in this property.
As mentioned above, this property is not in a nice part of town. As soon as you get a block or two away it's fine but don't expect to feel safe in the block surrounding this house. There is a house falling down across the street which seems like it draws an unsavory crowd to the block.
The Esplanade Ridge is along Esplanade Avenue which divides the French Quarter, the Marigny, and the Treme.
SORRY, NO early check-ins, or early-arrival baggage storage.

Is it possible to integrate Google Spreadsheet and Google Drive to the same folder?Asked by bluefiregroup on November 20, 2016 at 02:01 PM
My integration with google drive works fine and the path is GDRIVE > BFG SOR > {Your Name} / ..
I want to integrate to Google Sheets too - and put this in the same folder
i.e. GDRIVE > BFG SOR > {responses sheet}
But when I do the integration and state that the path is to be "BFG SOR" as the root folder - I end up with another folder on google drive with exactly the same name, rather than it using the existing folder I already have
Is this something that can be fixed? i.e. when I choose a folder I want to tell the integration to use an existing folder... It seems to ignore the fact that the folder exists and just creates a new one with the same name
JotForm Support
I understand that you want to integrate Spreadsheet and Drive to same folder, but since they are separate integrations they create separate folders. I'm not sure that it can be combined.
You can check one of the Zapier integrations: https://zapier.com/zapbook/google-drive/google-sheets/
Maybe it could help.
If you have further questions please let us know.
Thank you!

JULIAN ---- A 39-year-old Marine was killed in a head-on crash while riding his motorcycle Sunday afternoon, according to the medical examiner's office.
The Marine was riding westbound on Wynola Road, near Farmers Road at 4:25 p.m. when he attempted to pass two other motorcyclists and crashed into an eastbound motorcyclist, according to the San Diego County Medical Examiner's Office.
Both motorcyclists involved in the head-on crash were thrown from their bikes and into the roadway.
The Marine, who was stationed at Miramar Marine Corps Air Station, was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at Palomar Medical Center in an air ambulance, the medical examiner's office reported.
His name was not released pending notification of his family.
The other motorcyclist was also flown to Palomar and was listed in critical condition, according to the medical examiner's office.

Drying Out- Crumbcoat- Resting Etc
Decorating By Summer09 Updated 12 May 2010 , 5:02pm by jayne1873
im making a cake today-
im going to take it out and let it cool, once cool i will fill and crumbcoat- but i heard the cake needs to 'rest' can it do this with the BC all over it- and if i leave it out over night to rest will that be ok or will it dry out?
thnk yu all.
Yes, exactly. I crumbcoat the sides and put a plastic cake round on the top with something kind of heavy on top of that (like a tile or book). Let it rest like that overnight. The reason for this is so you don't have any shifting after you ice it. (This will prevent many problems)
The cake won't get dry because the icing 'seals' it in. I tend to think it makes it even more moist because some of the icing kind of soaks into the surface. HTH
The crumb coat will keep the air from drying out and keep the cake moist.
Personnally I bake the cake and leave it with the greaseproof paper on to rest overnight then crumb coat about 10 mins before you put sugarpaste on otherwise your bc will dry out too much for attaching your sugarpaste. Another thing that may have differences in UK and US

|Marketplace -> Electric Scooters -> Razor -> Razor E100 Hello Kitty Electric Scooter
Razor E100 Hello Kitty Electric Scooter
The Razor E100 Hello Kitty Electric Scooter is a great way to scoot around the neighborhood. This is an excellent Electric Scooter for Kids and Pre-teens; it's recommended for riders ages 8 and older. The maximum weight capacity is 120 lbs.
The Hello Kitty version of the E100 features everyone's favorite feline from the Sanrio Company. Children and adults both love Hello Kitty, and if you are a fan, you will love how she brightens up this Electric Scooter with her signature style! If you have a great sense of fashion and want a scooter with charm, then look no further. You just can't go wrong with Hello Kitty! Fun Fact: The Hello Kitty Character was the creation of Japanese designer Yuko Shimizu; Kitty was first introduced to the world back in the 1970s!
This Razor Scooter comes laden with lots of amazing features; it boasts a chain-driven, high-torque motor, and a handy twist-grip throttle. The E-100 model is different from the Razor E300S and E500S scooters in that the E100 requires a little manual kickoff to 3 miles per hour before starting (the rider presses a trigger to engage the motor). However, once the rider is on the move, the electric motor ramps up to 10 miles per hour. Parents love this Electric Scooter because it's fast enough to give any Kid an exhilarating ride, but it's not fast enough to be a menace on the street or sidewalk. And thanks to the long-life rechargeable battery, which takes about eight hours to fully charge, riders can cruise for up to 40 minutes at a stretch.
This Hello Kitty Electric Scooter comes with a folding handlebar mechanism for effortless storage and transport, an 8-inch pneumatic front tire and 4.9-inch polyurethane rear wheel, and a hand-operated front brake. It also comes with a pair of 12-volt batteries, a charger, and tools. On top of all that, it's is backed by a 90-day warranty.

About Giuseppe Spagnulo
A formally trained ceramicist, Giuseppe Spagnulo creates large-scale abstract sculpture that explores industrial processes, the relationship between form and material, and "the quantity of space that a form manages to set into movement," as he once said. His sculptures reflect the experience of the foundry, the steel mill, and blast furnaces, literally bearing traces of the danger and vigorous labor that went into their production. Spagnulo has termed his practice an exploration of the "complex body", a way of fragmenting the figure and emphasizing its materiality and temporal existence by way of the sustained interaction between various parts.

Retrievers of Truth
The ROT website password is no longer polar bear. A new newsletter will most likely be sent out to those registered with the site, giving a new cryptic password.
Interestingly, entering the code 1CF11D16-C378-4D5A-B038-00DF9ED171FF will work as a password and allow one into the hidden site. This is probably not the new password, however, but some kind of override code.
There is also a new letter sent out by Wally:
Dear friends, Thank you for supporting the Retrievers of Truth. Your unwavering loyalty and patronage are what keep me working so hard to get the truth out there about the Labrador. Things are going very well for the organization and for myself. I would not be speaking to you if it were not for your belief. Today I would like to talk to you about something that has effected us all at one time or another - change. Change is the nature of existence. Do you think the now mighty and mentally superior Labrador retriever was always such a symbol of canine superiority? Definitely not. I myself have experienced change in my life. An awakening or rebirth of sorts. And from that change came personal growth. A flowering, if you will. When a young yellow is but a pup he hasn't the slightest inkling of the changes he will endure. He goes though life as a pet only to later become the true master. I can't tell you how to overcome change but I can tell you to look to the future. Aim for the stars. Pick a point in your mind that you want to reach and allow yourself to change - to adapt and be ready for anything that might come your way. Like a wise old yellow once told me, "If I didn't change my mind, I'd be thinking the same things every single day." Yours truly, Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bole
Manny has also for some reason changed his MySpace account so that it shows only faceless friends in his top friend's list (he's also expanded the list since this weekend). At least some of these are real ARG players (see discussion).
