Is a Costco membership worth it? Here's what
Costco sets itself apart from other retailers in America by offering its massive quantities and minuscule prices to members only.

3 new online marketplaces better than Craigslist
Once upon a time, Craigslist was a great idea. Post classified ads for free! Buy and sell what you want without any hassles! Craigslist was easy and straightforward. You could quickly post text and photos, then take them down whenever you wanted. You didn't even have to post your email address. Now, Craigslist is a ghost of its former self. As goes the internet, new marketplaces keep opening up, and I've been very pleased with many of these alternatives.
Best streaming service: Netflix vs. Vudu vs. Amazo
When you're picking a streaming video service, so many questions pop up: how much does it cost? What movies does it have? Can you find current episodes of your favorite TV show, or are they all from past seasons? Is there an app, and how well does it work? The list goes on and on.
5 ways to slash your smartphone bills
Remember, a smartphone is a small computer, and computers are expensive. Even older-model phones can cost hundreds of dollars, never mind the $1,149 you'd have to pay for an iPhone X with 256GB, or the Samsung Galaxy S9, which costs upwards of $950. No matter the carrier, the freefall days of free and discounted phones are over, at least among mainstream providers. The pressure to own a smartphone is high, so how do you keep those expenses as low as possible?
Insider tricks to keep hackers and scammers from s
Cybercriminals are out in full force looking for ways to steal your data. It's worth money to them. That's why we've seen a massive uptick in the number of data breaches over the past few years. Unfortunately, most folks don't know they've been hacked until it's too late. With cybercrime so rampant, you need to be proactive about protecting yourself.
Tips and apps for office administration
Terry from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, called in to the show to learn how to optimize their on site security reporting. Their community hires off-duty police officers to patrol the neighborhood and are looking to update how officers check in, how they report, and how they can communicate more effectively in the field.
Clever Alexa commands you can use again and again!
More than any other device, Alexa has become our closest approximation of artificial intelligence. She has a voice and personality, and if you ask the right question, she'll even get sassy with you. Users even refer to Alexa as "she." We usually prefer to say her name, rather than the name of the device itself, Amazon Echo. For many owners, Alexa is more than a mere virtual assistant; she has become something like a domestic companion, a Rosie or R2-D2 that can also order takeout.
Incredible useful travel apps you didn't know ab
Have smartphone, will travel. Nowadays, your phone may operate in many different countries, or you can easily stick a SIM card into the slot and pick up a local data plan. Another option is to keep your phone off and only use Wi-Fi whenever you find it. In short, your phone is still useful when you travel, and you can access your apps in seaports and souks around the globe. Many apps are designed to enhance the travel experience.
Change this one setting to get faster internet spe
Have you ever been frustrated by slow internet speeds? There are many things that could be causing delays in your connection speed. No one likes waiting for web pages to load or videos to play. But if you haven't changed this setting on your computer, you're probably not getting the speeds you deserve.
Sell your old cellphone for big bucks
When learning about and playing with your new smartphone, did you ever stop to think about what to do with the old one? Throw it out? Give it away? You weren't planning on using it ever again, after all, and it was just going to be a high-tech paperweight. While it may be too late for the phone you replaced years ago, it's a good thing to know that you can actually sell your old phone. And not for pennies, either. But for real money.
These forensic tools expose any photo's hidd
Images contain a treasure trove of hidden, useful data, including date and time of image capture, time zone, type of smartphone used, and the geographical location. To expose any photo's hidden data, forensic tools may be used. Forensic tools can detect simple metadata or perform more advanced functions, such as to determine if a photo was altered.
Stop robocalls with Google Voice
Even with the National Do Not Call Registry in place, automated phone calls can still come flooding in. Many businesses sell your information to third parties. In fact, agreeing to this kind of information trade can be part of the deal for many free or low-cost services. The bottom line: Robocalls are annoying and need to be stopped.
How to know if someone blocked your number
When you block a number, you no longer receive calls or text messages from that person. With Apple's iPhone, it also blocks FaceTime contacts. This can be helpful for stopping some unwanted spam calls, but it can also be used for personal reasons. You won't get any sort of official notice if someone blocks your calls, but you can make an educated guess by looking for these signs.

An Improved Appearance
As last year drew to a conclusion we embarked upon a mammoth month; preparing for and undertaking re-roofing our 'old house,' then a whirlwind of events taking us from home, including our oldest Son's College Graduation, Christmas and holidaying in Sydney.
Whilst we were away the two windows for the 'new' front wall were delivered. Once home we commenced installing the windows.
The new windows help convey an 'all one house' appearance, externally there is no longer a big house, little house look about our home.
Once the girls had nailed on the bracing, PC and team were able to install the second window.
Next task was to measure, cut and nail on the weathertex/cladding.
Imagine how it will look when the stacks of flooring are removed and the walls painted.
Though we're already rather pleased with the result.

I showed the finished product to my hubby and he said, "That's cute." I hope you think so too.
Project #3
1/2 Yard each of Outer Material and Lining
Any embellishments
Make a pattern...
You can click on the picture to see the exact measurements.
Cut out two outer shells, two linings, pockets (you can decide on the size and quantity of pockets), and two straps 4x22 inches. You can sew the pockets on before continuing on to the next step.
Fold an edge over to the bottom. Stitch the outside edge.
Once you have the corners sewn sew the edges by putting right sides together. I like to pin the corners so the seams go in opposite directions-just like you do in quilting.
Here is what the side should look like once you have sewn the edges together.
Sew the lining in the same way. Once you have those two things done move on to the straps.
Fold the straps in half, right sides together, sew. Turn right side out and press with the seam in the middle.
Sew a topstitch on the straps. This step isn't absolutely necessary-but...
Look at the difference.
Turn the outer layer inside out. Pin the straps into position. Before you sew the two layers together make sure you sew on any pockets you may want.
Make sure when you put the lining in that the right sides of both fabrics are touching. Sew the two layers, and straps together. Be sure to leave an opening. I left my opening in between two of the straps, but I made sure to sew the straps too so they wouldn't move. Turn the purse right side out and sew another topstitch on the top edge--this is essential because it will close the opening on the top.
Finished purse, just needs a little wow factor...
Take some flowers from anothe project.
Or use the left over lining fabric to make a new flower.
Back the flower with felt. I cut two tiny holes in the felt and fed the safety pin through and sew it on to the flower.
Isn't it a cute flower?
I added a pocket to the lining. Every purse and bag needs at least one pocket.
This would be a cute purse with some pleats too :o)

Garland City Manager Bryan Bradford has announced a significant organizational change. Police Chief Mitch Bates has agreed to accept a new position as Garland's Deputy City Manager and Chief Operating Officer. This new position will assist in overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City.
A national search will be conducted to select a new Police Chief. Mr. Bradford said the community will play a significant role in the search for a new Police Chief.
Chief Bates will continue to serve as Police Chief until his replacement has been selected. The search process is expected to take approximately six months. At that time, Chief Bates will begin his duties as Deputy City Manager.
Mr. Bradford said, "Garland is a wonderfully diverse community. Chief Bates has worked closely with many community leaders to help our Police Department meet those diverse needs. The city as a whole is benefiting from the relationships and bridges he has built."
Chief Bates began his career with the Garland Police Department 32 years ago, including 16 years as Chief of Police. Chief Bates was instrumental in establishing the Community Leaders Group, which meets regularly with the City Manager, Police Chief and other key City staff members to discuss and address important issues that are relevant to the community. The group is comprised of the leadership of key community organizations: Garland Chapter NAACP, Garland Association for Hispanic Affairs (GAFHA), Garland Chapter of League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) and the Asian American Citizens Council.
During Chief Bates' tenure, the department experienced significant growth and expansion in community policing programs such as the Neighborhood Police Officer (NPO) Program and the School Resources Officer (SRO) Program. Also, Chief Bates established a Community Relations Unit that interacts and responds to community needs in addition to addressing and providing services to those who are homeless. Recently, a Youth Police Academy program was implemented to continue to develop relationships and build understanding with high school students throughout the city.
The Garland Chapter of the NAACP has twice recognized him as Bridge Builder of the Year, in 2009 and 2015. GAFHA honored Chief Bates with their Community Service Award in 2015.
Local leaders of Garland's community groups have high praise for Chief Bates.
GAFHA President Tony Torres said, "Chief Bates will be missed in his current role due to his integrity and commitment to community policing. I look forward to working with him in his new position as Deputy City Manager."
"Mitch has modeled the behavior we expect in a Police Chief, public figure and father. He has set the bar for all future chiefs," said Garland NAACP President Ricky McNeal. "Garland is positioned for success due to his management of GPD and willingness to listen and implement changes. Mitch is truly a servant leader."
"I would sincerely commend Chief Bates for the work he is doing to keep us safe and feel important. Thanks once again for everything that he is doing to uphold the rule of law in Garland. Like me, many grateful members of the public appreciate his valuable work. We are extremely happy for him," said Jennifer Nguyen of the Asian American Citizens Council.
"Chief Bates has made a difference in our Police Department and our city. He has improved diversity and public relations by displaying compassion and providing open communications," said Chester Johnson of the Garland NAACP.
Chief Bates said he is honored and humbled to be selected to serve Garland as Deputy City Manager. "I hope to continue to serve the wonderful people in this community and the wonderful people in this organization."
Chief Bates obtained a Bachelor of Business Administration from Texas A&M University in Business Analysis: Design and Analysis of MIS Systems. He earned a Master of Science from the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) in Organizational Behavior.
Chief Bates is a graduate of the 220th Session of the FBI National Academy and the Senior Management Institute for Police (SMIP) sponsored by the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) at the prestigious Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
Chief Bates currently serves as the Chairman of the North Texas Major Cities Police Chiefs group and was a former Chairman of the Law Enforcement Committee of the Dallas County Criminal Justice Advisory Board (CJAB). He is a member of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) and the Texas Police Chiefs Association (TPCA). Mitch is also a proud graduate of Leadership Garland – Class #19 (the "best class").

The College of Business at the University of Michigan is one of few schools in the United States that offers students the opportunity to major in digital marketing. The Digital Marketing program at the University of Michigan-Dearborn provides students with a course that teaches them how to use search optimization to expand the visibility of their website they create. This course is known as Digital Consumer Search and Marketing.
Through this course, students learn about search engine design, keyword research, onsite search engine optimization, and offsite search engine optimization. Students are able to gain hands on experience by implementing these topics into their semester project of creating a website, optimizing the website, and analyzing the effects of their optimization techniques.
Although this course provides students with an excellent opportunity to gain hands on experience in the digital marketing field, it is important for them to take the initiative of staying familiar with the latest digital marketing trends. These trends are constantly changing with the advances of technology and media usage.
There are many resources that are available to not only students, but to anyone who has the desire to gain experience with digital marketing. A couple of these resources include:
These resources provide information about existing domains and some information on how they used search engine optimization to increase the visibility of their domains.

With the influence of VW's 'Dieselgate' still being felt widely, the Aachen car and engine know-how Colloquium was notably pertinent this yr. Ian Adcock reports on the most vital technologies and shows. Importantly, it could be worth it to interrogate cultural mass communication and media to see if it is potential to differentiate between contexts of manufacturing, and the multimedia packaging of cultural items, cultural practices and whether these promote social empowerment or subordination, either foster aesthetic innovation or traditionalism, or do they or they do maybe improve or detract from the quality that's produced.
The counter-perform to aggregation is disaggregation, the splitting of discursive objects into multiple data streams. Sometimes the discovered type of information does not serve the needs of all customers. Technologies like the anesthesia report can then take a complex discursive object and break up it into useful items of information that different customers might recruit into other discourses.

I started my research career in what may have been the first and only age of science journalism. Newspapers were big and growing, and many had dedicated science sections; magazines like Scientific American and Science News appeared to be flourishing. But, even before I finished my PhD, our technician showed me a sign of things to come: a program called Mosaic that could let you go straight to weather satellite images without waiting for the five o'clock news. Fast-forward to the present day, and the newspaper business is collapsing, taking its science coverage with it, while scientists talk directly to the public through blogs and tweets. Despite all the changes, one thing has remained largely constant: the US public continues to suffer from serious scientific illiteracy.
Will the Web ultimately provide a killing blow or the resurrection of science journalism? I'll be given the opportunity to pontificate on that topic at this year's Science Online conference in North Carolina, where I'll be taking part in a panel discussion with Ed Yong, Carl Zimmer, and David Dobbs. All of them have experience with both traditional journalism and new media, and should do a better job of providing perspective on some of the changes than I can.
But from my outsider's perspective, it looks like newspapers will struggle to find their footing and, even if they do, they're unlikely to have the resources to return to the golden era of science coverage. What I do expect I'll do is talk a bit about our experiences with science coverage, and the opportunities and limitations of how things work here, and what they might say about online science reporting in general. To make some of this concrete: providing science coverage at a technology site provides a function similar to coverage in a newspaper: it puts science in front of people who might not otherwise bother to hunt down a dedicated science blog. But we're doing that without the sorts of resources that a newspaper might have. In their better years, newspapers could afford to ship someone to the Arctic to cover polar researchers in their natural habitat.
I certainly don't want to be completely Ars-centric, though; I expect I may also wind up discussing some of the material we've covered at Ars, such as the role of press releases and press release aggregators, and the potential of open-access science. You might also want to visit the blogs of the other panelists, as they've been considering some issues they feel might be worth discussing, as well.
In any case, I'd also like to offer our readers the opportunity to have some say about the discussion: what questions do you think need to be discussed, or what issues do you feel should be highlighted during the panel?

A Muni Bond Warning
Current law prohibits it, but the SEC chairman is talking about reasons to regulate the municipal bond market.
The federal government may be backing into the business of regulating state and local finances. At least, that is the specter raised by a recent suggestion from the federal Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox that his agency set disclosure rules for those issuing municipal bonds.
Among state and local finance officials, the response to that idea is obvious: No way. Having to meet new requirements, they say, would raise their costs for borrowing and add complexity to transactions. "As a matter of federalism, states should be allowed to regulate the issuance of their own municipal securities," says Dan DeSimone, of the National Association of State Treasurers.
That's long been the prevailing arrangement. The Depression-era legislation that set up the SEC and securities regulation specifically exempted municipal bonds. Such exemptions were reiterated in 1975, when Congress created a municipal securities rulemaking board. "As a result," says Paul Maco, former director of the SEC's Office of Municipal Securities, "the SEC does not have the authority to prescribe the forms and content of disclosure in the same way that it does for publicly traded companies."
What the SEC can do is step in to pursue enforcement actions after there has been clear wrongdoing. That is what brought the agency to San Diego, where it sanctioned the city last November for securities fraud and failure to disclose important information to bond buyers. The SEC also has been involved in Philadelphia's big pay-to-play scandal, which partially involves the city's bond business and has resulted in the former city treasurer, among others, going to jail.
Cox, as a U.S. congressman, represented a district that included Orange County, California, during that entity's 1994 bankruptcy. "Our enforcement program is focused on fraud in this area," Cox told The Bond Buyer in March, "because the protection of retail investors is so central to our mission."
Jeffrey Esser, executive director of the Government Finance Officers Association, says that the $2.3 trillion muni bond market remains a safe haven for investors both because the government default rate is microscopically low and because government, by its nature, is more transparent than corporations. "The SEC is looking at a couple of anecdotal stories about governments that have been a problem," he says, "and it's extrapolating from those problems the idea that all state and local governments are in need of federal regulation."
It's easy to find out a lot of information about a state such as California, notes Thomas Weyl, a municipal bond researcher in Boston. His concerns rest with non-governmental issuers of muni bonds, such as corporations doing pollution-control projects. "There is no direct regulator," Weyl says. "We do a pretty good job in the market, but we're not perfect."
Cox has yet to put a formal proposal before his own commission, let alone push for legislation on Capitol Hill. The congressional banking committees have so far shown little interest in taking on this fight, although one New York congressman has.
All that may change in the coming months, but in the meantime, it's possible that the chairman floated his idea simply as a warning to muni bond issuers: Fix your problem areas, or we're going to fix them for you.

Burgess & Partners is now able to offer the specialised services of a consultant in the design of Wet services for all buildings in the residential, commercial or industrial sector.
All work is done in strict accordance and compliance with the applicable by-laws and South African National Standards for the water supply and drainage for buildings.
The scope of work encompasses the internal design of plumbing within the building, from the water supply into the building and its reticulation to all internal points and then out to the sewer system. This also includes the design and layout of the internal soil waste stacks and external sewer systems.
Also included in the design is the design of hot water systems, tank and pump layouts, pipe sizing and specifications of materials to be used.
As with all design there are many considerations that must be weighed up in order to offer a solution that will produce a balance between cost effectiveness and functionality. With this in mind, on a specified project, we will offer a number of "Design Concepts" for discussion so that the performance of the final system satisfies the requirements of the client.
Part of our service is to also offer solutions to problems and shortfalls in existing plumbing systems. Disruptions in water supply are becoming far more frequent and problematic to which we can offer systems to alleviate the problem.

Oh, Russia, what would we do without your visually amusing dash-cam videos? So, what's the deal with this incident, you ask? Well, we have a car and two young pedestrians, who the driver claims were purportedly drunk. To his defense, one of the two lads would have a hard time passing a DUI straight-line test.
On the other hand, though, what's with these super aggressive drivers heading towards pedestrians without slowing down or giving way?
Back to the clip, next thing you know, we see the young men breaking the car's windshield with rocks, not once but at least twice - after the driver went after them…
Watch the video below and do tell who you think is more at fault here in the comments board.

Additional information
This ejuice smelled great right off the bat i thought it was going to be awesome…It just didn't work for me, i got a lot of the honeydew and whiskey but not much else and the throat hit was too strong for me. It probably had to do with the free sample only being available in 6 nic which is a bit much for me, i vape 3 and 0 these days. It's not bad by any means just not for me. Taste is so subjective, i still get it out every so often to see if anything has changed with steeping and it did get smoother on the throat hit but definitely not an adv for me.
I'm glad I got a free sample because I would have never picked this flavor based on the description! It's very good! Very clean (not chemically) taste. Fresh and fruity! I can imagine vapeing this ejuice on a breezy spring day! Thanks!! Keep up the good work!
Alchemyst has the best vape ejuice on the market. All of the flavors exude elegance and perfection. Every note is tasted. You will not be disappointed. Incomparable experience
This is the first ejuice from Alchemyst I've tried and having spent hundreds of dollars over the past few months sampling a plethora of flavors from many vendors, this juice, straight from the bottle with no steeping, has spiked to close to the top of my favorites list. The primary flavor for me is the honeydew with a hint of asian pear followed by whiskey after tones that settle deep on my palate. I really haven't gotten any nectarine yet but perhaps time will prove different. This is an amazing juice that if were a beverage could be a Lindemans Lambic flavor. Not an ADV for me but definitely a daily vape
this was awesome ejuice tons of flavor.
Love this flavor! So tasty…A++
Love the faebryth.
Sampled on a toptank mini, ssocc ss316l, 460°F. I usually find melon flavors too sweet or floral, but not Faebryth. Juicy melon on inhale, melon floral and tart burst on exhale. Dark cocoa/oak notes on palate at end of exhale. Floral melon lingers in sinuses. Complex and yummy!
Awesome flavor, the melon and pear with the hint of whiskey is a great combination. Love the flavor. Definitely will recommend and will purchase more
This ejuice flavor in my opinion, has trumped even my preferred ADV flavor combination of Honeydew Melon, V. Custard and Hypnotiq. I ordered my juice ratio as 50/50 to bring out more sweetness. The flavor profile was impeccable satifaction for me. I would not change it, it is perfect the way it is. Aromas and taste were excellent right out of the bottle. No need for any steeping.
i love feabryth it has a great flavor
I always tend to sway towards fruit ejuices that incorporate pear and/or melon. So I just knew this one would be good, and I wasn't wrong.
Inhale – juicy and sweet melon with a small amount of pear. The melon is dominant on the inhale, but what's pretty awesome is there is a mellow whiskey flavor that hits the back of my tongue. it's extremely intriguing and keeps me going back for more.
Exhale – the melon starts to fade here and is replaced with more pear, It is sweet with a slight tartness. Also, the whiskey flavor is still there, just chilling out in the background. At the very end of this I get another fruity flavor, which I believe is the nectarine, kind of like a peach but has a slight bite to it. Really authentic flavors in here.
This is a very well made juice. Don't let the whiskey spirits deter you from trying this, it actually rounds this vape out very nicely as it is a mellow constant in the background.

Design work is fraught with complexity. Because of this, it is entirely possible to make "things" and even "systems" without making much sense to other people. Information architecture is the act of deciding how the pieces of a whole should be arranged to make sense of those you intend to resonate with. It is a critical life skill that is the backbone of all successful design work.
In this class, we will improve your IA skills by focusing on making sense of your thesis work. You will be taught IA frameworks and theory to assure that your work makes sense not just to your peers within the walls at SVA but more importantly to the audience you intend it for.
course objectives
- To teach the importance of language and structure in design projects, especially those projects that are large and across various media and channels.
- To provide frameworks and theory needed to be thoughtful in the creation of structures that can strengthen the potential for shared meaning and resonance with your audience.
- To encourage clarity when breaking down goals, audiences and concepts.
- To explore what it takes to think-through, document and gather feedback on structures that you can implement within your thesis to get to your goals and serve the needs of your audience.
This is a 15 week studio class consisting of a mix of lectures and workshops in a collaborative setting where you will work through making sense of your own thesis topic while also helping others to reflect on making sense of their topic. The class is equal parts improvement of your own work, and improvement of your collaborative and facilitation skills.
course deliverables
Students in this course will come away with:
- Concrete ways to synthesize and clarify thesis work across both digital and analog deliverables.
- An understanding of the importance of language and structural decision making in design work.
- Mapping and diagramming techniques that can be used in any design context.
- A clear path through to finalizing your thesis as a video, presentation, blog, and published book.

Cafe Del Sol – Hagerstown, MD
Cafe Del Sol caters to anyone with an appetite. While the atmosphere was more high end, the clientele were quite diverse. I got fish tacos all while wearing a t-shirt for just $10; a steal any day of the week. Those tacos were fresh and tasty. The pineapple was fresh and not canned. Beer battered mahi mahi accented the dish nicely but I would like more fish in each taco if the chef were to grant me one wish.

Are You Defined By What You Charge?
January 15, 2015
Back when I was a newbie virtual assistant I was hungry for work, so I took any work. I cut my rates often because customers at the time (I also took any customer!!) were on strict budgets and not so strict payment schedules … did this do my business any good? Not really, except in terms of learning from my mistakes.
Because we are all to a point defined by what we charge.
Clients often run pricing past me for workshops, products and rates and more times than not I'll go back and say I seriously think you are undervaluing yourself. They want to build their business and price accordingly in order to pick up new clients or sell product, but here's why you don't price yourself on the lower scale:
- By undercharging you will attract the wrong customers. For your business to succeed, long term – you need to find a few of your ideal customer not lots of troublesome ones.
- Cheap is often perceived as cheap. If you are looking to increase your database, give information or a product away for free. This will achieve more than pricing yourself in the lower range.
- We feel valued when we value ourselves, what we charge is one way of achieving this.
- Price should not be a key determining factor on whether someone wants to do business with you. You will back up what you charge with absolute value for money.
- Underpricing can give you a bad name in the industry. Your reputation is worth more than an hourly rate.
Many of you, before you became the super-duper entrepreneur you are now, at some stage worked for someone who did not pay you your worth. While the job you did for that person was exemplary … because you give 150% anyway … you felt less than appreciated. Why would you do this to yourself now?
In this somewhat material world I think yes, we are defined by what we charge … to a point. If you don't value yourself, your service or your product … why should anyone else?
My question to you today is this, do YOU believe we are defined by what we charge?
If you made it all the way to the bottom, thank you for reading! Please comment if you have something to share and if you'd like to receive my weekly blog straight to your inbox, please subscribe here. I'd absolutely love that!

People find so many ways to be creative when designing their t-shirts. Our customers have many different needs, and a great variety of ideas, some funny, and some serious. Our job is to assist you in presenting your ideas on your chosen shirts in the highest quality possible. That is why the resolution of your photographs and artwork is so important. In today's blog, we've included samples of several different ways in which some customers have chosen to get their message across:
A funny take on a Schwartzenegger quote from one of his movies!
This caption is especially popular lately, with the relevant TV show airing lately. It's now cool to be "geeky"
This custom designed t-shirt was for a hen's party. In this instance, the artwork sent in for the design was quite low in resolution. Therefore, the white background could not be extracted from the picture without producing a pixelated design on our customer's shirt. The shirt is still effective, but would have looked so much better with just the hen showing. There are so many websites now, where high resolution pictures can either be downloaded free, or bought cheaply. If the artwork in question is a business text or logo, it is often much better to pay a little more, and have us re-draw your logo to give your business shirts a professional look. We also keep your logo on file for future printing jobs.
Another example of a cute pet being used as part of a creative t-shirt design. This design looks especially effective against the black t-shirt background.

The rail industry will suffer "lasting and irreparable damage" if the crisis over cancellations and disruption to services is not tackled as a matter of urgency, a union has warned.
New timetable changes introduced by train operator Northern has seen a lack of drivers and cancelled services across the network leaving commuters fuming in South Yorkshire.
READ MORE: Sheffield loses out to Leeds and Manchester in Channel 4 HQ shortlist
The Rail, Maritime and Transport union said "ill-conceived" timetable changes, combined with staff shortages and the "incompetence" of private rail companies, have reduced services to "chaos."
The union warned that its members are facing increasing levels of abuse from passengers because of delays and cancellations.
RMT general secretary Mick Cash said: "The daily chaos on Britain's railways is down to a toxic combination of corporate incompetence and political failure that can be traced directly to the door of the Transport Secretary Chris Grayling.
"Instead of trying to blame everyone other than himself and his private operators he should accept responsibility and go.

"The constant attacks on the workforce and Network Rail, an organisation that Grayling has deliberately set out to undermine at every turn on ideological grounds, have to stop and we need a wholly new approach which sees our railways as a vital public service rather than a one-way ticket to the bank for greedy and incompetent train companies."
This comes after Sheffield City Region Mayor Dan Jarvis laid into train operator Northern and said using the service was like "going back in time."
Mr Jarvis, who commutes from Barnsley into Sheffield as mayor, said he has experience the problems first hand and said the service at present "should've been consigned to the past."
The mayor was due to meet with Secretary of State Chris Grayling yesterday to see what the Government can do to improve the service.
He added that he was writing to Northern this week to air his concerns.

Mr Grayling said in a letter to Yorkshire MPs that the level of disruption on Northern rail last week was "wholly unsatisfactory" and the scale of the chaos "far outstripped any expectation."
David Brown, managing director of Northern, said: "Our plans for modernisation are not all being delivered in the way we want. We are doing everything we can to minimise cancellations and delays and keep our customers informed.
"It has been difficult for many of our customers and I am truly sorry for this.
"There is urgent work to do to fully understand what did and didn't work on all aspects of planning and delivery of the new timetable.
"We are committed to working with Network Rail to get things back on track as quickly as possible, and to deliver the services our customers expect and deserve."

The potential for a "great rotation" out of bonds and into stocks and the prospects for a favorable earnings environment in the United States in the coming years has many investors, including President Donald Trump, bullish on stocks. However, some of the wealthiest investors in the world still see plenty of reasons for caution.
Trump's political unpredictability along with potential destabilization in Europe following the Brexit vote are two reasons Deutsche Bank AG CIO Christian Nolting believes wealthy investors remain uneasy.
"People are still cautious; there is still demand for bonds and people are not ready to move into the more risky equity space," Nolting said.
Analysts at Citigroup and Goldman Sachs recently questioned the existence and potential impact of the great rotation.
"I, like many people, worry that there's too much comfort right now and maybe some uncertainties are underestimated, particularly political ones, and as we get closer to some of those moments you're likely to see spikes in volatility," Credit Suisse Group CEO Tidjane Thiam explained. He predicts an uptick in market volatility in the near future.
Trump's plans for lower corporate taxes and fewer regulations seem to present U.S. stocks with the best opportunity for growth that they've had in years. So far, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust SPY 0.13% is…

Or maybe you just want to be able to look sophisticated in front of your coworkers when they ask you what you are reading on your Kindle, and you'd prefer to tell them "Oh, I'm just reading a book about stock market analysis," rather than the usual "Oh, I'm just looking at pics of my ex-girlfriend on Facebook." For these reasons and more, check out my book, Beating Wall Street with Common Sense. I don't have a degree in finance; I have a degree in neuroscience. You don't have to predict what stocks will do if you can predict what traders will do and be one step ahead of them. I made a 400% return in the stock market over five years using only basic principles of psychology and common sense. Beating Wall Street with Common Sense is now available on Amazon, and tradingcommonsense.com is always available on your local internet!

Want to know the secret behind the success of many of the NBA's top teams? It's not the shoes, and it's not some unwieldy practice drill that only LeBron James or Steph Curry can handle. Instead you'll find that many players' pre-game routines include something that can be found in most pantries and school lunch bags, and costs just pennies to make: the blessed PB&J.

I go is to the AMA Expo each year see what new creation Carl the Tray Man. This year he really came up with a beauty! The color straws looked great and the plane looks very graceful in flight.
There are a lot of different reasons people go to the AMA Expo but having talked to my friends the majority of them go to see the vendors. They want to see what is new and pick up a bargain at the Expo prices. This year my friends and I bought items from a number of vendors, and one friend started a trend with his purchase. Of course a number of vendors are not at the show to sell, but to display or demonstrate their items.
The Hobbico booth is an annual stop for me. Great Planes, Futaba, and Flyzone are just three of the many companies whose hobby products they distribute. They always have experienced employees who can talk about their products and answer most questions you might have on the current products.
Horizon Hobby has one of the biggest displays every year, and this year was no exception. This year I meet Quique Somenzini at the Horizon Hobby booth and had a couple short conversations with him. There is a short First Sighting article about the ParkZone VisionAire that includes Somenzini discussing and flying the plane in two short videos. Here, I am featuring other planes I saw at the show and a long video of the Horizon Hobby West Coast Demonstration Team flying a variety of their products there at the AMA show. John Redman is the narrator during the demonstration flight video.
The Horizon Hobby West Coast Demonstration Flying Circus with John Redman narrating and Quique Somenzini flying the VisionAire. This show was a lot of fun, and John Redman is a great Master of Ceremonies.
Maxford USA got some Stockton money this year: At least two of my friends bought planes from them, another friend and myself bought transmitter boxes, and I got a 1/5 scale WWI pilot. They had a number of planes discounted, and some were half price. But if you subscribe to their e-mail you could get the Expo prices.
NitroPlanes had a nice display and sold a lot of planes to my club alone. In fact we will have a squadron of Me-262s flying over Lodi very soon. It is nice to be able to see the planes in person and not just on their website.
Dominic Grasso flew a tune-up flight to get his Seb Art 30 size SU29 tuned-up for later demonstration flights. Dominic flies for Thunder Power and the planes uses a 3-cell 2250 mAh 65 C pack.
On Friday Mark learned about these little quad copters that can actually do a flip in flight. They were selling at the show for $35.00 at one booth, and up to $60 at other booths. Mark works the flying site, and when there was open air he would fly his little quad copter space ship. (It was also available as a Bee or a UFO.) It flew very well. People would ask Mark about it, and then they would go and buy their own. Mark did such a good job of demonstrating, and so many people were buying them that one booth raised their prices and another booth lowered theirs. It was capitalism in action.
Banana Hobby also had a very nice display of planes for sale. I am currently reviewing their SBD-5 Dauntless which was selling well at the show. I was considering getting the Super Sky Surfer to use as a camera ship, but at the show I learned that they have a new plane joining the Sky Surfer lineup in about a month: the Sky Surfer Pro with a 63" wingspan, a powerful motor, a folding prop and camera mounts for GoPro cameras. I decided the new Sky Surfer Pro fit my needs the best, and I will wait for it to arrive.
Hobby People had a small store at the convention and had the Hubsan helicopters available for a very nice discount. Unfortunately they were all sold out of the gliders. These are FPV aircraft with a monitor in the transmitter so you can see what you would see if you were in the aircraft. I still plan to get the glider version when they restock. They had a number of items for sale, and I almost bought a Mr. Bill to use as a pilot or ground crew member. They had great prices on the Airtronics transmitter/radio sets. Airtronics has always been a great manufacturer of servos. When I learned to fly, I was taught that servos were critical to flying successfully. A lot of what people called "radio interference crashes" were actually due to having the wrong servos in the plane. Don't go cheap on servos. If you go to a bigger motor you should probably go to stronger servos, especially for the elevator. Airtronics is coming out with some new servos soon as discussed in the video below. Remember not all 9 gram servos are the same.
Nico Hobbies was one of the fifteen new vendors at the AMA Expo this year. The owner is a friend of mine who I first met at the Arizona Electric Festival. He didn't have a hobby business on the side back then; he just made and flew these amazing little foam planes. At the AEF he was constantly flying one of his planes and making these crazy little loops that where so fun to watch. Now he sells the little planes in kits or RTFs. These plane's are designed to fly outside, but his test pilot was doing a pretty good job until the ceiling jumped out and swatted the plane.
Bob had some stuff I needed at his little booth. My friend Dick got a night light set for his Fun Cub, and I got some more lights to add to planes that already have some lights. I also got a motor to use in a Reno Racer review. The instructions call for a 250 watt motor But I went a little more powerful with a 350 watt motor.
Here are a few demonstration flights including a scale flight and 3D flying.
I was happy to help take some promotion shots of the Sea Cadets at the show.
An annual part of the AMA Expo is the displaying and judging of models. The Weathering on the World War I plane shown below is so good, I can almost taste the oil in my mouth when i look at the plane or even just the picture.
Part of the fun of the vendors area is just going around the room and taking in the sights, stopping to talk with some club members and learning about their club and why they decided to get a booth at the AMA Expo, and seeing a product as you are walking around and then trying to remember where you saw it an hour later.
I got to see a lot of friends and a lot of interesting RC stuff. I enjoyed watching some great flying, and I bought some items. At Common Sense I got a small charger (that I needed) and a helicopter in a ball (that I didn't need) that I know I will have fun with at my office. At another vendor I picked up a battery pack sensor. At ROC I picked up a couple of battery packs. ROC sells battery packs to hobby stores around the country. Guys in my club bought some of their packs at RC Country in Sacramento and have been very happy with them. I will report on my findings in connection with some up coming reviews.
On the drive home we listened to the football games on the radio, and we got to my house as the 49ers wrapped up their game over Green Bay. Good friends, helpful vendors, interesting speakers, some great flying and some needed stuff at good prices. It was another enjoyable AMA show and a great weekend.
As reported by E Zone member, Alpea 41, a large multi-blade copter and the camera gear that goes with it was reported stolen at the AMA show. Al has a video of the Hex copter and lots of pictures and videos of the show in the AMA thread in the E Flight event section. I strongly recommend you check it out as Al has lots of great pictures and videos.Last edited by Michael Heer; Jan 15, 2013 at 10:11 AM..

My grandson had the time of his life there on Saturday. He's still talking about the big Fokker!
A friend notified me that none of the You Tube videos embedded in the article are showing up on his ipad but the ones in the Reply in the Quique article can be seen on his ipad. I loaded links to the first six videos here and three more video links the second reply down and have been told these can be seen on ipads and hopefully any other system that wouldn't show the embedded videos in the article above. If you still can't see the videos ... sorry I tried. Mike Heer

Here are the last two videos featuring Gorilla Bob flying a Flame Wheel quad copter and Align's great helicopter demonstration followed by a slide show of the static display models at the show.
Mike, nice seeing you at the show even though at the time I didn't know it was you. Maybe next year we can talk. Im guessing it was you at the flight directors table where I got that pic of your "heli in a ball" And I agree I always go to see what soda straw Carl "The trayman" Ryker has created. He's very proud of those creations too and walks thru the event with them held over his head. At one sighting of him doing this I asked," Carl are you making motor noises with your mouth?" " Of course" he replied

It was a good show but you sure this is a P-47
Yes! Look closely at the red cowl behind the tail of the big T28 Trojan taking up most of the picture and you will see the P-47: )
Actually entered the wrong picture number but at least I did post a NitroPlane picture and there was a P-47 you just had to look closely. Mike Heer

Nice write up Mike! I'm glad I was finally aboe to swing getting a booth there. I've been there as a buyer before, but not as a vendor. Thanks for the video of Al's son James flying the F-15 indoors. You're right, it is a tough area to fly my planes in, but it can be done!
Now we have the AZ Electric Festival to look forward to!
We had a blast at the 2013 AMA Expo! See you guys next year!
It was a real pleasure meeting you and that picture of you, I and my grandson Stephen turned out great. I still need to upload all of those photos and when I do, I'll send the ones I have of you to you.

Can someone please help? I know of a crashed American DC-3 in the jungles of New Guinea and wish to know where we might find the plate with the manufacturer's details and the aircraft serial number.
If we know the aircraft number we hope to trace the crew and its family members in the USA.
I did retrieve one part that looks like a battery lead. This was on it: No: 411608 serial number 687; Date: blank.

Training kick off!
Today the rest of the team finally arrived in Charlotte. Over the course of the day the new guys trickled in, and it was exciting each time a new man made it in.
Today was also the first day that I had to prep a meal for the whole team. Talk about a lot more food! This was my first effort.
The rest of the day was spent training until we headed to our new lodging at warehouse 242 church.
Until tomorrow,

3 cups unbleached all purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1 1/3 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
4 Tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup carbonated soda
1/4 cup buttermilk
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease standard size donut pan(s). Whisk dry ingredients together. Stir in wet ingredients to form a soft, sticky dough. Turn dough out on a floured surface. Knead in enough dough to make smooth. Pat out to 1/2". Cut with a cookie cutter, jar, lid whatever will fit your pan. Cut a smaller piece out of the center. Put donut dough in pan(s) and cook 10 to 13 minutes until done, tester comes out clean.
I thought, after I patted some out, that I should have just put the sticky dough in the donut pan without rolling it out. I'll try that next time. Tomorrow, maybe. ~smile~ You could also use mini muffin pans to cook these in although I don't know how long they would take.
Alternately, heat oil in a heavy, deep pot to 375 degrees F. Making certain it is steadily at 375 degree F temperature. Carefully put donuts and holes and fry until bottom is brown...it's just a matter of seconds, flip over and cook until brown. Cook only a few at the time. Place on paper towels to drain. Top with your favorite glaze, cinnamon or powdered sugar. Enjoy!

SPYWARE -- Spyware is a program that has been downloaded, usually unbeknownst to you, because it can be piggy-backed with some other type of desired program, usually freeware or shareware. Once this spyware is secretly installed on your computer it can do such things as change computer settings, track viewed websites, collect passwords, history and private information, and can even record your keystrokes. This information is then sent back to the program's originator or to a third party. Spyware is extremely difficult to eradicate.
A particularly annoying type of spyware is called adware which generates a tremendous amount of advertising in the form of pop-up advertisements or banners scrolling across your screen. This program can actually track your activities and cause similar ads to pop up hoping to interest you in related products. It can be quite intrusive and distracting but hardly as malicious as other types of spyware.
VIRUSES -- A computer virus, also rides on the coat-tails of other programs when downloaded, and can reproduce and run itself when the host program is executed. It can infect and corrupt files and sometimes causes hard drives to 'crash' depending on its design. A virus can infect other computers through the sending of email and/or file exchanges.
WORM -- A worm is a self-contained program that can replicate itself and uses a network to infect other systems on your computer. Depending on how the worm was designed, it can secretly send documents though email and even delete necessary files. Unlike a virus which causes harm to the computer and its files, a worm causes harm to other computers on the network and consumes bandwidth, thus slowing down your environment.
SPAM -- Spam is electronic junk mail, usually unsolicited. It uses up tremendous amounts of network bandwidth. Spam is usually trying to sell you some product or service and is sent to generated mailing lists and newsgroups. Though it cannot cause you or your computer much harm, it is extremely annoying and time consuming to delete. It is estimated that more than 60% of all email on the internet is spam.
WHAT CAN YOU DO? -- Visiting Geeks technicians strongly urge all owners to install an anti-virus software program on their computers. We also recommend at least one anti-spyware program, if not more than one. Depending on Internet usage, you should set both programs to automatically scan on a regular basis. These programs can actually find and remove unwanted "infections" and can also prevent their future installations. It isn't enough, however, to simply install these programs and think yourself entirely protected thereafter, because new spyware and viruses are constantly being designed. You must update your anti-spyware and anti-virus programs daily in order to pick up on these newest threats.
Though no one program can be relied on to keep your computer completely clear of sypware and viruses, there are many reputable anti-spyware and anti-virus programs available on today's market. When our customers need an anti-spyware program our technicians install Counter Spy by Sunbelt Software. For those customers with no anti-virus we will install PC-Cillin Internet Security by Trend Micro which even has the added benefit of Parental Control Features.
It is much easier to prevent your computer from being infected with these above-mentioned malware than it is to try to get rid of them, so browse the internet wisely. To clean a computer of unwanted spyware and viruses can be a costly and lengthy process. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," so the saying goes.

Rattling wagons are a daily sight in a train terminal and Baku's Bilajary Depot is no difference. Dozens of carriages clatter through the vast maze of tracks and control booths carrying oil and gasoline, Azerbaijan's wealth. The labyrinth is also home to 25 families who live in dilapidated houses, where civil engineering meets desperation in a mix of wood, metal, and concrete.
Most of the residents are displaced from Zangilan and Djabrayil, which lie around the territory under the control of the army of the breakaway region of Nagorno Karabakh. Since the fragile ceasefire in 1994, which enshrined the end of the conflict between the Armenian and Azerbaijan forces, the temporary relocation of hundreds of thousands of ethnic Azerbaijanis have become permanent - and their fate has fallen into oblivion.

45 Auto vs Auto Rim DSC01227.jpg 45 Auto vs Auto Rim DSC01228.jpg
The Auto Rim case is about .006" longer, about .004" narrower & a most different rim design. Its rim is also larger in dia.
I gathered 10 of these at the range 2 days ago & culled them whilst inspecting other range brass, mostly once fired.
What firearm were these manufactured for? Thanks.
