Bugatti has finally confirmed long-standing rumors that it is preparing to launch an all-new and "strictly limited" model, dubbed Divo, which is now scheduled to make its public debut during the annual Pebble Beach Concours weekend late next month.
Expected to be based off the same platform as the current Chiron, the Bugatti Divo has been described by some who claim to have seen an early prototype as "controversial." Only 40 of them will be produced and are expected to be targeted for track use.
"Happiness is not around the corner. It is the corner. The Divo is made for corners," said Bugatti Automobiles President Stephan Winkelmann in a statement, adding, "With the Divo we want to thrill people around the world." (more…)

Specialty Plate Survey Results
An astounding 98% of the alumni who responded to the MMA License Plate survey, and who have vehicles registered in Maine, are interested in getting an MMA specialty license plate. Getting a specialty plate requires alot of footwork, time and patience.
Though we had 98% in favor of MMA plates, only 173 responded to the survey, 85% of the respondents were from Maine. So, initial concerns are gathering the required number of signatures and subsequent specialty plate funds. This will be a discussion item among the Alumni Association Board. We'll keep you posted. This document from the Maine Bureau of Motor Vehicles explains the steps needed to be completed prior to a specialty plate being issued.
Want a Yearbook?
MMA maintains an archive of original Trick's End yearbooks in addition to hosting digital versions. Currently we have a surplus of yearbooks in storage that are free for the taking.

Published Document
Take notice that on February 4, 2000, Florida Gas Transmission Company (FGT), 1400 Smith Street, Houston, Texas 77002 and Southern Natural Gas Company (Southern), 1900 Fifth Avenue North, Birmingham, Alabama 35203 filed a joint application in Docket No. CP00-78-000 pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, as amended, for permission and approval to abandon by sale to Arrowhead Pipeline, L.P. (Arrowhead), five minor gas supply lines along with related taps, valves, three measurement facilities, a dehydrator facility, and other minor appurtenant facilities located onshore and offshore in Matagorada County, Texas. In addition, the Applicants are seeking determination that these facilities, once conveyed to Arrowhead, will be gathering facilities not subject to the Commission's jurisdiction pursuant to NGA Section 1(b). All as more fully set forth in the joint application on file with the Commission which is open to public inspection. This filing may be viewed on the web at http.//www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
Communications concerning this filing should be addressed to:
For Florida Gas Transmission Company
Mr. Stephen T. Veatch,
Director, Certificates and Regulatory Reporting—(713)-853-6549, Suite 3997
or Mr. Frazier King, Senior Counsel—(713)-853-7228, Suite 4742

Florida Gas Transmission Company,
P.O. Box 1188,

1900 5th Ave. North,
Southern Natural Gas Company,
Post Office Box 2563,
Birmingham, AL 35202-2563.
It is stated that the facilities that are the subject of this application were initially constructed in order to connect gas supplies to the systems of FGT and SNG for rendering their merchant functions. Since FGT and SNG ceased making sales of gas, deliveries through these facilities have dramatically declined. Thus, these facilities have been underutilized for a number of years.
The Applicants further state that the abandonment and sale of these facilities will eliminate the inefficiencies of under-utilization, reduce operation and maintenance costs, reduce rate base and avoid potential stranded costs while firm service from and to primary points will be maintained by FGT and SNG.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with reference to said application should on or before March 1, 2000, file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules.
Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds that permission and approval for the proposed abandonment is required by the public convenience and necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal hearing is required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, it will be unnecessary for the Applicants to appear or be represented at the hearing.Start Signature

Music that gentlier on the spirit lies, Than tired eyelids upon tired eyes. -Alfred Lord Tennyson
Yes, I realize it's Valentine's Day. Don't even go there.
*Sigh.* I do have some warm fuzzies I want to add to my little diary. So twenty years from now I might remember some of the wonderfulness of my two favorite cupids. Some of my best time with my girls is the quiet time after the homework and piano practice and baths and teeth-brushing and lunch-making and last minute drink-getting, blankie-finding, jumping-on bed chaos that defines our busy evenings. Lately, my chance to share that time with them has been almost cut in half. So even on the days when I just don't have anything left I make sure I dig deep and find it. And it paid off the other night and I don't want to forget.
Once the lights are out and the girls are all cozied up in their beds I spend a few minutes with each little one tickling their back or playing with their hair and just giving them a few minutes to tell me what's on their mind. (And I'm a little embarrassed to say that a lot of the time it's that I have diet coke breath!) Ever since they were babies I've always played music for them at bedtime and naptimes. When they were tiny it was several different genres of lullabies but now that they're older, believe it or not, it's Delilah (and her love songs…. "Love someone toniiiiight") playing in the background. And being a band geek, I try to point out the different instruments I hear within the music when were having a rare quiet moment.
Over the last few weeks they've been sharing a room so it's been more of a group conversation. My oldest is quiet and still once she's settled and this night I said goodnight to her first as she went through her usual routine of burying herself under the blanket and comforter and covering her head with just her face peeking out.
I assumed she had already fallen asleep.
Kate is the opposite and fidgets and talks to herself and kicks all her covers off before she even goes to sleep. So I was getting her settled and no one had said anything for a few minutes and I was dozing and listening to the music (I wish now I could remember which song was playing) and very quietly I hear Morgan whisper from the darkness,
"Mommy, do you hear the piano?"
That's my girl.

The world of peering and interconnection saw a bit of M&A news today: IIX has acquired the UK-based Allegro Networks.
The deal gives IIX both a foothold in Europe and the automation platform Snap. Snap automates the purchasing and provisioning of virtual cross connects, point-to-point circuits, and peering interconnections. That's technology that seems to fit very well with the intended capabilities of IIX's Peering Cloud. IIX hopes to get past what it calls 'islands' of interconnection out there today, moving beyond even the distributed metro model of the European exchanges to something more global.
IIX was founded by a collection of industry veterans looking to change the way interconnections and peering are handled by the internet infrastructure space, and just this past summer raised $10.4M in Series A funding. That team will now be joined by talent from Allegro, including CTO Andy Davidson, who is now IIX's president of network engineering for Europe.
Financial terms were not disclosed.

You could say that a normal dental cleaning is the car wash and a deep cleaning is the detailing procedure. However, when your dental health is involved, it's a little more complicated than that.
What is a Deep Cleaning?
Medically-known as "scaling and root planing" or SRP, this treatment does more than simply get your teeth "extra clean."
Scaling is the removal of tartar from teeth. Root planing means smoothing out the surface of tooth roots that are roughened with bacteria and tartar. These techniques are combined in a "deep cleaning" procedure. This treatment requires specialized dental tools and is often broken up into multiple appointments due to complexity.
Contrary to how it may sound, SRP is more of a medical treatment instead of a superficial, cosmetic one.
Understanding Gum Disease
Gum disease starts out as gingivitis, which is gum inflammation in response to bacteria. As the bacteria spread, the inflammation worsens. Combine this with tartar buildup at and below the gum line, and you've got a problem on your hands.
Without medical intervention, gum disease will lead to tooth-loss. A deep cleaning is the medical standard for stopping the infection right in its tracks.
A Regular Cleaning Won't Cut It!
To really nip the problem in the bud, you need a deep cleaning. Gum disease creates deep pockets of infected and damaged tissue around teeth. You can't access these pockets with a toothbrush and floss, alone.
A deep cleaning might sound like a luxury dental treatment. But it's actually a procedure that's essential for anyone suffering from gum disease. Contact your dentist to schedule a gum health assessment to find out whether a deep cleaning is right for you.

If you've been told by your dentist that you need a deep cleaning, be prepared for a lengthy procedure that can sometimes take two appointments. After all, it took awhile for the plaque to build up along your gum line and it's going to take time to remove it.
Commonly referred to as deep cleaning, the process is technically called scaling and root planing. It is a procedure often done by a periodontist and one of the main methods of treating periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is caused by the build-up of tartar and plaque around the gum line. If the periodontal disease has progressed, your gums may be inflamed and may even be receding.
During the procedure, the doctor may use a local anesthesia to avoid any potential pain. Then, he will use a special scaling tool to remove the hardened mineral deposits from the teeth and gum line. In worse cases, a planing tool is used to clean deep below the gum line and into the roots. Alternately, some dentists will use an ultrasonic device to do both scaling and planing.
Depending on the extent of tartar buildup, another session may be needed to clean, say, the upper teeth. The periodontist might place antibiotic fibers between the teeth to prevent infection, which tends to be the biggest risk in this type of procedure.
If the cleaning goes well, the gums will eventually go back into their proper place, and with good dental hygiene in the aftermath, there is a good chance the risk of periodontal disease will be greatly reduced.

Hibiscus Martini
Hibiscus Martini (a Casa Clark original recipe)
2 oz hibiscus syrup (recipe follows)
2 oz vodka
1 oz fresh lime juice ( read this article and it'll illustrate what I mean by fresh juice; thanks E for sharing this)
hibiscus flower in syrup for garnish (optional)
Place all your ingredients except for garnish into a shaker and shake until the outside of shaker is cold. Place your garnish at the bottom of the martini glass and pour cold drink over the garnish. Enjoy.
Hibiscus Syrup
I actually found this recipe online. It calls for fresh hibiscus flowers but I used dried Jamaican flowers that I purchased at the Latin market (RN) for about $3. If you have seen this syrup at Amazon be prepared to pay $11 for a bottle of 8.8 oz. You not only save money but have enough ingredients to make it over and over again. The flowers are super pretty in flutes topped with champagne (I'll post a pic once the girls come over on Saturday).
20 dried whole hibiscus flowers
1/2 c fresh lemon juice
2 c water
2 c sugar
Place your flowers and lemon juice in a microwave proof bowl and nuke for 2 min. on high.
Add the water, sugar, and hibiscus flowers in lemon juice to a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the mixture has reduced by 1/3. Allow the syrup to come to room temperature. Use a slotted wooden spoon to retrieve the flowers or strain flowers from syrup into a clean bowl.
Gently place the flowers into a clean mason jar and top with the syrup so that they are completely covered ( I prefer to use a wide mouth version because it's easier to get the flowers out when you want to use them). Add the surplus syrup into a clean mason jar and cover both jars. Place in refrigerator and store for up to one year. You can also make hibiscus vodka with it.

The Windows Live Essentials suite includes the following key applications (as well as some add-ins to other applications such as the Windows Live Toolbar for Internet Explorer):
• Messenger
• Photo Gallery
• Writer
• Family Safety
• Movie Maker
To download Live Essentials, go to http://download.live.com. You can download the main installer application, which will allow you to choose and download your desired applications on demand.
Windows Live Messenger
Windows Live Messenger is an instant messaging application.
Windows Live Messenger offers the following functionalities:
• File transfers
• PC-to-PC and PC-to-phone calls
• Photo sharing
• Sending SMS messages
Using Live Messenger, you can also send messages to other users even when they are offline .
Windows Live Mail
Windows Live Mail is the successor to Outlook Express (shipped with Windows XP) and Windows Mail on Windows Vista. Using Live Mail, you can read and send email from one or more email accounts, including accounts from providers such as Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo!, and more.
Live Mail supports the POP3, IMAP, and HTTP protocols. The last one is particularly important for Hotmail users, because that service requires the HTTP protocol in order to be able to read your email using a mail client (unless you subscribe to the Hotmail Premium service). Also included with Mail are four other subapplications—Calendar, Contacts, Feeds, and Newsgroups (you need to press the Alt key to reveal the menu).
When you click the Sign In button in the upper right, Windows Live Mail will:
• Allow you to use your Windows Live online contact list (via the Windows Live Contacts application) and see when senders are online in Messenger
• Sync with your Windows Live calendars
Windows Live Mail Versus Live Hotmail
The popular, free web-based email service Hotmail was once called Windows Live Mail. It has since been renamed Windows Live Hotmail. The name Windows Live Mail now refers to the desktop version of the email application.
Subscribing to Microsoft Communities
To subscribe to a newsgroup using Windows Live Mail, click the Newsgroup icon in the bottom left of the Windows Live Mail window (or make the menu visible with the Alt key, then select Go->Newsgroups). The first time you go to the Newsgroups section, you will see a message indicating that you are not subscribed to any newsgroup. Click the View Newsgroups button to see a list of available newsgroups from the Microsoft Communities. Select the newsgroups that you are interested in and click Subscribe.
Working with the Calendar
To view your calendar in Windows Live Mail, click the Calendar icon in the bottom left of the Windows Live Mail window (or make the menu visible with the Alt key, then select Go->Calendar). The calendar will be displayed.
You can create a new Calendar by clicking the "Add calendar" link. Creating a new calendar allows you to organize the entries according to specific occasions. For example, you might have a calendar for company meetings and another for family matters.
You can also share calendars that you have created with your friends or the public. Before you can share your calendar, you need to sign into Live.com. Click the Sign In button in the upper right of the Windows Live Mail Window (if you see your Windows Live ID listed there instead of a Sign In button, it means that you are already signed in).
By default, three calendars will be created for you: My Calendar (your personal calendar), Birthday calendar (your contacts' birthdays calendar), and
However, to do so, you need to use the web-based version of Calendar. First, log in to http://calendar.live.com. You will be asked to sign in using your Live ID (the one that you signed into from within Windows Live Mail). Once you have signed in, you will be able to specify which calendar you want to share by clicking the Share link. You can then specify whom you want to invite to subscribe to your calendar, and the selected recipients will receive an email invitation.
Another interesting thing you can do with Windows Live Mail is subscribe to an online calendar. Subscribing to online calendars allows you to view the calendar of another party and be updated automatically when the party's calendar is updated.
To subscribe to a calendar published by other users/organizations, click the Subscribe
link. You will be asked to either subscribe from a public calendar via a URL or import an .ics file. When you subscribe to a calendar via a URL, you will always get the updates performed by the calendar owner. An example of a calendar URL looks like this: http://cid-6d498f3bdb1fa52e.calendar.live.com/calendar/Trainings/index.html. If you choose to import the calendar via an .ics file, then you will only get a static calendar (i.e., you won't see updates performed by the calendar owner). Calendars created in Live.com will be synchronized automatically with Windows Live Mail when you relaunch Windows Live Mail again (or simply press F5).
Windows Live Photo Gallery
Windows Live Photo Gallery is a photo management and photo sharing application that is tightly integrated with Windows Live Messenger. Using the Live Photo Gallery, you can organize your photos into folders, as well as tag photos and then upload them to Windows Live Photos and Flickr.
Windows Live Photo Gallery is the successor to Vista's Windows Photo Gallery application. The names of your friends are taken from Windows Live Messenger and Windows Live Contacts.
Windows Live Writer
Windows Live Writer is a blog-publishing application that allows you to publish your postings to blog publishing sites such as Blogger, WordPress, TypePad, and Windows Live Spaces.
When you first start Live Writer, you will be asked to create a new blog on Windows Live or use an existing blogging account. Once you have done this, you can use Writer to create a new posting and then publish it to your blogging account.
A nice feature of Windows Live Writer is WYSIWYG editing, and also that it supports rich content like images, maps, videos, and all major text-editing features like tables, alignment, and spellchecking.
Windows Live Family Safety
Windows Live Family Safety is a parental control application that allows parents to monitor their children's activities on the Web. You can install Live Family Safety on all computers that your children use in your home. To activate Windows Live Family Safety, you will first be asked to log in using your Windows Live ID (such as your Hotmail email account). Once you have logged in, you will see the screen.
Select the account(s) to monitor and click Next. You will be prompted to match the Windows account with the name in Family Safety. Once this is done, click Save. You will now see that the default filter is Basic, which means that only adult websites are blocked. To change the filter, go to http://familysafety.live.com and you will be able to change the filter type to Strict, Basic, or Custom.
In order for the child to visit the page, he will need a parent (the one who signed in to Live Family Safety) to authorize the page using the password supplied during the signing-in process. Alternatively, the child can also email the parent the request.
Windows Live Movie Maker
Windows Live Movie Maker is a video creating and editing application. It is the successor to the Windows Movie Maker included with Windows Vista. The new Windows Live Movie Maker is now much more user-friendly.
Using Live Movie Maker, you can save your movies in Windows Media as DVD quality or Windows Media portable device format. Windows Live Movie Maker requires a video card that is at least as powerful as the ATI Radeon 9500 or nVidia GeForce FX 5900.

The nation's election chief gets most of the attention on this morning's front pages, and not in a good way.
Lorenzo Córdova, president of the National Electoral Institute, is the latest unwitting recording star for Clandestine Gotcha Studios.
In a leaked cell phone conversation with another INE official, the man charged with preserving Mexico's electoral democracy on June 7 goes off on an indigenous leader he met with last month, essentially making fun of him for being an Indian and driving home his point with an embarrassing approximation of the stereotyped fractured lingo that Hollywood once used to portray Native Americans.
That makes the front page of all the papers. Three lead with it, including La Jornada with this top head: "Córdova mocks indigenous man in leaked recording."
The recording went up on YouTube yesterday. Televisa immediately came to Córdova's rescue, giving him a chance to apologize in an interview, and to change the subject to the other issue — namely, the ease in which private conversations are made public with the intent to harm.
Córdova's position is that he (and by extension the INE) is the victim here, the target of a malicious, illegal act. He's not wrong. The 21st century assault on privacy is a true crisis, though the likes of Córdova, with his childish insensitivity, is more of an argument for the assault than against it.
Another 21st century, Internet-bred crisis is the proliferation of public shaming, the cowardly acts of the self-righteous who find it easier to put innocents in the virtual stockade for off-hand remarks than to bother with the heavy-lifting of eliminating real, on-the-ground racism.
Is Córdova being unfairly shamed? A little. But the thing is, he's a public official. And not just any public official, mind you, but the public official in charge of an election process that's been criticized for, among other things, making itself irrelevant to poor, isolated communities, many of them indigenous.
And he makes fun of those same people? Private conversation or not, you have to wonder — what was this guy thinking?
And then you remember. He was thinking that nobody was listening.
You never know, but the safe bet is that Córdova will survive this. There was no revelation of wrongdoing, as in the OHL case, where company officials talked openly of defrauding the government.
What was exposed, though, is that we may not have the right kind of person occupying the top election post.

My Thoughts
Gabby has just gotten her degree and begun teaching kindergarten. She has run away from a life that she fears will come back into her present. She pushes Blake away because of that and guards her heart. Blake is a single dad whose son is one of her students and there is some serious chemistry between them. Gabby falls head over heart for his son and him as well. Ash was such a sweetie. I loved their package deal and Gabby was perfect for them. I really loved their story and I can't wait to read more.
I give Grit 5 hearts!
I give Grit 5 hearts!
About the Book
Gabby Morgan isn't looking for love. Not even a little romance. Following a rocky past that she'd just as soon forget, she's determined to focus on the future. One that most certainly doesn't involve the tough-as-nails, short-on-words, hot-as-hell biker…or his kid. Blake Mahone may not be done with women, but he's finished with relationships. Then Gabby Morgan enters the picture. She's flawless, refined, and as his kid's teacher, way out of his league. She acts like she hates him, but her eyes tell a different story. Before he knows it, Blake finds himself hot for teacher, and he's more than ready to learn all her secrets. Now all he has to do is convince her to give him a shot…without getting them both killed in the process.

Today while driving I heard a brief interview with Robin Carnahan and why she is opposed to the legislation that will create a voter ID card and she went to the extreme of trying to complain that voter ID was an issue meanwhile a National ID card is getting slammed in the state legislature. I see absolutely NO reason why a voter ID can't have a picture on it and to compare that to a national federal mandate identification is asinine.
Neal Boortz proclaimed he couldn't vote for anyone that called our troops and "occupying force". I wonder if there was some military force from far away that decided to free us from our tyrannical government if he would call them an "occupying force" or terrorist.
This morning I heard a blip from a local talk show host about a proposed casino that developers are trying to build in Rockaway Beach and like a good "conservative republican" he wants to use the force of government to keep the casino from being built. This confirms my suspicions on what I always thought about those that claim to be "conservative". We were placed on planet earth with the free will to live our lives to the best of our abilities and to make correct decisions. A conservative wants to take away your free will to determine what is right for you. If a casino is built in Rockaway Beach it will help the area proper, after all the government built dam is the reason why it has become a wasteland.

So, I heard yesterday that the name 'Cullen' is the boy name that made the largest climb in popularity last year. This is due to the uber-popular "Twilight" series of books (maybe you've heard of these little manuscripts?) 🙂 One of the main characters (a vampire no less) is named Edward Cullen, so naturally, overnight, the name has become "trendy".
It's really not a big deal, but I tried so hard to come up with names for my boys that were strong, and "different" without being "weird". I wanted names that would stand the test of time and not be dated (i.e. my own name which is very a la 1960-ish). So, even though I truly love the name, I do feel a little disappointment knowing that it's not as "different" as I thought it would be.
All that being said, I thought I would share a quick shot of my own Cullen taken a few days ago – it was a rare moment of him being still and quiet (well, he is never truly quiet unless he is sleeping, so maybe I should say, he was more quiet than normal!). When I look at this image, I'm so surprised at the little boy staring back at me. He's not a toddler any more, he's a real little boy. One who likes bugs, playing in the dirt and laughs hysterically at any noise that sounds like a bodily function (um, ew). So, popular vampire name or not, he's my Cullen. And anyway, he was Cullen before being named Cullen was cool. 🙂
Until next time,

Let's say you measured Vin = –1V, but Vout way off +1V, now what can be wrong? How do you debug it? Below are some suggestions for you to consider:
- check the supply to see if the supplies are correct
- visual inspect for
- wrong polarity
- wrong part (if manual assembly involved)
- missing solder or "cold" solder
- check if wrong resistors being loaded - power down – measure resistance of R1, R2 to see if any of R1, R2 is larger than 1KOhm – since this is in-circuit measurement – we don't expect to see 1KOhm, but we definitely expect 1KOhm or less, since parallel resistance of any resistors is the minimum of those.
- check if oscillation occurs - if everything looks good – get hold of a scope and confirmed there's no oscillation on either pins mentioned above
- check if op-amp already sourcing too much current - lift output pin, insert a small resistance resistor from pin to pad, measure the voltage drop to see if the amp is sourcing or sinking more that datasheet stated. It is possible that the next stage is demanding more current than expected.

Chicago Public Schools should set aside up to 20 percent of slots at each of the city's eight selective-enrollment high schools for students with abilities not measured by standardized tests or grades, an outside panel has urged.
Striving for racial and ethnic diversity in the schools should remain a goal, the group said. But other factors such as a student's leadership qualities, athletic ability or community service also should be considered during the application process.

Door features
Protec Industrial Doors is specialised in advanced doors. This translates into a wide range of door solutions including burglar resistance, bullet resistance, explosion resistance, acoustic insulation, (high) thermal insulation, fire resistance, etc. These are the frequently recurring requirements for our doors. However, the possibilities do not stop here. Protec Industrial Doors offers you total project solutions, which is why it has developed various project-specific properties that may be required less frequently, but do belong to the advanced possibilities of Protec Industrial Doors.
A few examples of project-specific properties are electromagnetic shielding (EM shielding) and radiofrequency shielding (RF shielding). These solutions are implemented to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radiofrequency interference (RFI).
To limit the RFI and to convert the EMI into EMC (electromagnetic compatibility), RF and EM shielding components can be used. The shielding can also be developed for doors. In this highly specialised area of expertise, there are several options that all have their own specifications in terms of engineering and shielding integrity.
TEMPEST is a specification of the US National Security Agency (NSA) and a certification of NATO, NATO SDIP-27 level A, B and C. The TEMPEST specification is aimed at protecting digital data from espionage. The protection is achieved through distance, filtering and shielding. For the shielding (of digital data), Protec Industrial Doors can provide suitable solutions.
Faraday cage
A Faraday cage is a structure made of electrically conductive material, such as copper or iron. A Faraday cage ensures that static electric fields cannot enter or exit the Faraday cage, depending on the application. Protec Industrial Doors can provide you with doors that act as part of a Faraday cage.
In various fields of application, earthing of doors may be a requirement. Due to various business processes, for example, a high voltage may be applied to the door. This may constitute a risk, for example, in an area where an explosion hazard may be present (ATEX).
Wind load
In some projects, high wind loads must be taken into account. This applies, for example, in areas with an increased risk of hurricanes (or other wind-related forces of nature). Protec Industrial Doors can offer you doors that can not only withstand high wind loads, but also remain operational at these high wind loads of 220 kph, for example.
Vandalism & crime
There are more options in the field of security as well. We can offer you doors that are explicitly developed to provide resistance to a ram raid, by absorbing the impact of a car. In addition, Protec Industrial Doors can provide you with doors that are developed to provide resistance to projectiles or that are breakout-resistant, for example.
Project solution
If certain requirements in your project are neither included in this list, nor specified in the product pages, Protec Industrial Doors can still provide you with a door solution that matches them. Examples of this are: doors that can withstand earthquakes or doors that are specially developed for the movement of a ship. Please contact the consultants of Protec Industrial Doors for information about the possibilities.

Proud father's picture perfect story
IT HAS been a busy time for the Cloutier family of Lismore.
Peter Cloutier celebrated the 20th anniversary of his Lismore business, Mirror Images last week.
Meanwhile his daughter, Sarah Cloutier, recently became general manager of the Melbourne arm of Digital Pictures, overseeing the company's day-to-day operations, technical pipeline and business development.
They are both essentially in the same ballpark: one specialises in printing, copying and laminating images; the other is an expert in the post-production and visual effects environment for broadcast, film and commercials but Mr Cloutier modestly refuses to draw any comparisons.
He says Mirror Images' survival throughout two decades is because it is "a good honest business".
"We've made lots of friends, but we haven't made a fortune," he said. "It's difficult to know how you can do that honestly these days."
He has watched the emergence of high-powered computers - and the growth in technical skills in the general population - change his business style, pushing out the demand for posters and other items on the retail side to create space for bigger laminating machines and other equipment.
But he says "there is still a steady demand for custom printing".
Business comes in a variety of forms, from service sheets for funerals, business cards, flyers and people wanting items to be scanned and visually enhanced.
Mr Cloutier says he has picked up the necessary new skills over the years "by osmosis".
Formerly an agricultural scientist, he credits his ability to keep up with technology to his training - his interest, as a science graduate, in new knowledge and its application.
And anyway, he says that most of the changes have been gradual.
"It's surprising how much is still the same."
The work keeps him young, he says, and although he is 73 and recovering from a hip replacement surgery, he has no intention of retiring.
"I'm not a frustrated bowler or fisherman," he said, "and I enjoy the challenges."
The biggest challenge, business-wise, is from the larger operations and their economies of scale.
"While I think we provide the most comprehensive service in town, there are pressures on pricing."
But his success will continue to be based on giving people what they want, he said.
"We provide a very personal service, and we'll do small jobs the others wouldn't look at, such as a run of 100 business cards.
"It's very person to person."
And his customers are very loyal.
"We had a lady in today who can remember when we opened."
Mr Cloutier is hugely proud of his daughter, and her success "in a pretty high-powered field".
Ms Cloutier is a Kadina High School old girl who went to a TV school in Sydney and worked in the industry in Australia before heading to the UK.
For the past several years she worked at BSkyB's London facility and launched its 3D channel in 2010.
She specialises in leadership and technology strategy in the post-production and visual effects environment for broadcast, film and commercials.

Attitude or Technology? To BIM or not to BIM
Repost: http://doddsandends.typepad.com/blog/2009/10/attitude-or-technology.html
By Jason Dodds
I wrote in an earlier post about some tools and ideas for how to really get started with BIM, but I think on key element that was missing was talking about the importance of attitude over technology. So something dawned on me a few months ago and I was further convinced this past week with a presentation from John Tocci Jr. Attitude may be more important than technology...
Now before anyone gets all worried, I am not prepared to renounce my love for technology. I still believe that technology is one of the keys to moving forward and staying ahead of the tightening grip of schedules and budgets.
So sure you can run out and buy a copy of any BIM technology, stick it on your business card that your firm is now BIM enabled, then toss someone in the corner and tell them to go go go in their little silo. You can then hope that this person or team gets everything right and on their own and tries to promote it back out to the masses eventually. But do you see a winning attitude there? Not really, it's what's referred to as "lonely" BIM and does not foster positive expansion. You could also throw a mighty tablet of BIM Standards down on the masses and mandate BIM in your organization, but that is not going to make anyone happy now it is? Running to the computer store to purchase all new hardware and new "toys" makes for some happy people for a few weeks (because it's like Christmas come early) but it still may not be enough to make BIM successful.
When I have seen BIM properly integrated into an organization (construction, architecture, interiors, or basket weaving) it was because of the attitudes of those involved in the project. They tended to look at things with an open mind, open ideas, and willingness to listen and learn from everyone around them. BIM is truly a social and collaborative engagement. Those that have succeeded choose not to focus solely on the Technology but about the process that were going to be put into place and how they were going to communicate. They trusted that the technology was going to do its job and that the people could be trained or mentored as needed. Technology was not the thing that held them back. Sure it was the single item that brought everyone to the table and started the conversations but it was the attitude of everyone involved that propelled the project forward and allowed them to collaborate about how things would be done.
When you're starting to bring BIM tools (Revit, Navis, QTO, Civil 3D, ect.) into the company and engaging on your first project. Stop and consider the people that you're going to have, your "fastest CAD" user might not be the right choice for a BIM team. Anyone ever see the 3rd Indiana Jones Movie? Remember the scene where he is about the pick the grail and the knight tells him to "choose wisely"? Well this is kind of like that. Choose the right group to approach things with a positive attitude and your technology with be successful...Source: Attitude or Technology?

all work and no play mighta done me in
but im stoked i'm back after where i've been
^How to survive a 7hour trip^
A little mix
My hair is dirty and I have a collection of snotty tissues in my purse. The man who sat next to me on the train home ended up being at the exact same Friendly's my friend and I dined at later tonight, sssssmall world. I got some sort of bbq chicken sandwich (which I regretted,) and a complimentary 99cent sundae to christen my good health and safe arrival back in Delaware. I brought my mom a turkey club with a mother days card to make up for my lack of attendance yesterday (yes I know I'm a horrible daughter.)
While unpacking my suitcase I realized my room smells like an old library. I was only gone a week but it feels like months, years even. The calendar reads May. I feel so different and almost exactly the same when I walk into this house. It's a little weird to go from the constant company of my boyfriend Matt, to all this silence. Having someone wrap their arms around my tummy while I brush my teeth, ask me "what do you want for dinner, you can have anything you'd like," I guess the real world and not loving-dream land totally sucks!
I never wanted to be a mindless drone "all I do is talk about my boyfriend and how great and perfect and wonderful our relationship is 24'7," is kind of gals. They're always throwing their relationship in your face, bragging about all the things their man just bought them. They constantly update their twitter with "my bf is just great he is the best," and all you do is roll your eyes. They usually always inform you of TMI sexual things they do with their boyfriend, and usually throw in "and he's sooooo large," somewhere in the mix and you can't help but want to vomit. So at the risk of sounding like a proud mindless drone of a gf, I must admit that my bf is some kind of a sweetheart. I'm a little sad to be hundred of miles away from him, ok, so there I said it. Love, Love love..
On that note, listen to more Ida Maria!

Who do you look like?
Often times, we find ourselves discussing who the kids look like. Sometimes this is purely about appearance, she has your nose, but other times it is about actions. They look like us because they act like us…although we are individuals, we often take on traits of those that we hang around with.
In Acts 4, Peter and John have been arrested for healing a man and talking about Jesus. Upon being questioned by the council, an interesting statement is made about them… Acts 4:13 NLT
The members of the council were amazed when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, for they could see that they were ordinary men with no special training in the Scriptures. They also recognized them as men who had been with Jesus.
Wow, how cool would it be if people would recognize that I had been with Jesus? I am praying that as I spend more time with him that he continues to rub off on me.

Best Buy has a great deal on the Logitech Tablet Keyboard for Apple iPad. It usually retails for $69.99 and has been dropped to just $39.99. The item is currently backordered and leaves the warehouse in 1-2 weeks so this won't make it here for the holidays. But, this is a good enough price that you could always wrap a "promise note" in place of the real thing and hand the gift over at a later date.
Thanks, Southern Savers!

Since I cannot edit my last post anymore:
"Oh, your 75mm shells bounce off their armor? Historically, that is ACCURATE".Dog crap. Shermans had enough penetration to punch through PZ4H and J at the range we use in COH,and had MORE than enough pen to deal with earlier,even more paper versions of the boxpanzer.I forgot to mention that throughout the whole war,pz4s turret remained paper at 50mm front armor at most.
"Sloped Armor = more armor, which was high tech at the time"
Oh yeah? And guess which first mass produced tank had sloped armor? tip.No,it wasnt german.You should also propably know that the panzer 4 WAS NOT the best armored bread and butter tank,it was the Sherman tank and the T-34.
"German Tanks had a minimum of 4 inches of Steel armor plating".Did you get your info from someones anus? The only "TANK" in the game to have more than 100mm nominal armor is the kingtiger.Let's not include unicorns like jagdtiger or elefant which shouldn't even be taken seriously given their size and speed,they're like one fancy target practice for allied fighterbombers.
"It's just funny how you tell them they should get their facts straight, and you don't even know what you're talking about".According to your profile,you joined the US marines,fine.Sad stereotype is that most people who joined the army,know f***all about the army.
76mm HVAP round could penetrate the tiger at 1000m and turn it into swiss chese.
Just remember,germany won the war,right...or did they?

There is no way on this green Earth that my undergraduate academic record is getting me any kind of scholarship to anything.
I am nevertheless making an honest effort to get my application materials assembled and submitted on time.
I also need to tackle the stuff for Music Committee that I said I would take care of at the meeting last week.
And I've been lagging with some kind of virus since last Sunday.
So. Stop web surfing, start doing something useful.

Hehe I like the martial tone to this. I think going shopping is sometimes more like a military expedition than it needs to be. Great take on a day at the shops/car breakdowns.ReplyDelete
Ah poor bug, and poor car but at least there was a cavalry, it's always good to have one close by!!ReplyDelete
Love the way your shopping expedition sounds like a military maneuver! Good luck with the car. At least you have a bus to ride this week????ReplyDelete
I love the phrase "day from heck" I will be borrowing that one!!ReplyDelete
Hate it when that happens though, with the car dying :(
Hope the dollars needed to fix it weren't too many!
Sometimes life throws a wobbly! Thank goodness for the cavalry...ReplyDelete
Regiment, attention! good one!ReplyDelete
sorry the day left you unattended-
I know that kind of stuck! Hate it...
don't much like shopping either. Thanks.
Ha ! I'm not laughing at your predicament but at your poem! I love the way you turnedtragedy into a metap(oet)horical triumph! Yabba!ReplyDelete
One day I will hop on that bus, but it seems I keep missing it!ReplyDelete
Great poem!
Lovely! Especially 'the troop' - such a great noun. In fact, I liked every line.ReplyDelete
Sorry it all went wrong, but it has made for a spiffing poem.
I really love the metaphor! Great poem.ReplyDelete

Spicy Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Looking for a low carb, high protein, and ridiculously yummy weeknight meal? Boom. This is it! Believe it or not, I first found a version of this recipe in my Williams Sonoma monthly catalogue. It looked delicious, but as always, I wanted to put my own spin on it. So let's get to it!
Build out your sauce first. Whisk together 7 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons garlic rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce, 1 teaspoon sugar, and juice from 1/2 of a lime. Set aside.
Now the filling. In a wok, heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil on medium heat. Add in 1/2 cup chopped green onions, 1 cup shredded carrots, 2 tablespoons grated ginger, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Toss frequently to ensure that all veggies have been kissed by the sesame oil for about 2-3 minutes. Add the ground chicken to the veggies and allow to cook for about 5 minutes until cooked thoroughly.
Once the chicken is completely cooked, add 2 teaspoons of sriracha and 1/2 of your sauce mixture to the wok. Stir constantly for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the chicken and veggies are coated with the sauces. Annnnd…you're done! To serve, lay 2-3 butter lettuce leaves on a plate and pile on the ground chicken mixture. Next, top with bean sprouts, chopped fresh basil, a drizzle of extra sauce and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. So yummy, so healthy, so quick! I hope you enjoy.
- 7 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons garlic rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- ½ cup green onions
- ½ cup shredded carrots
- 1½ tablespoons grated ginger
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 teaspoons sriracha
- 1 lb ground chicken
- butter lettuce
- bean sprouts
- fresh basil leaves
- Mix together soy sauce, garlic rice vinegar, sesame oil, fish sauce, hoisin sauce, sugar and ½ of lime
- Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil on wok
- Add green onions, shredded carrots, grated ginger, minced garlic cloves and red pepper flakes until fragrant
- Add in ground chicken and cook until no longer pink
- Add in ½ of sauce mixture and 2 teaspoons of sriracha, mix well
- Place about 3 heaping spoons on butter lettuce leaves and top with bean sprouts, fresh basil, lime juice and additional soy sauce mixture
Share Your Thoughts
This was really delicious and super easy! And, it took less than 20 minutes for me to cook. Great weeknight meal!

I've finally found it and it's like a breath of fresh air.
Today, a gentleman from Tent City (which is currently located on the SPU gym track) came and spoke to us about what it's like to be homeless. He felt that he had constantly burdened his family by always couch surfing between their homes when he lived in San Diego, so he traveled to Seattle for something new. Now he lives in Tent City, a community of homeless people that has a few simple rules.
1) You must be 18.
2) You cannot be listed as a sex offender.
3) No form of drugs or alcohol is allowed.
I listened extremely attentively to his story and soaked in every word that he said. For being homeless he is extremely literate, I thought while he gave a simple and straightforward speech about his living style and how he felt about other peoples' reactions toward him.
Turns out, quite a few homeless people have jobs, but they don't have enough money to pay rent. They would rather use the money for food, clothing, or things that they consider more important and essential.
I was shocked to find out how ashamed and embarrassed he was of being homeless. It wasn't something that he could help and it hurt him that other people looked down upon him because he didn't have a consistent roof over his head. He was burdened by the fact that homeless people have the reputation of always being drug addicts or criminals, something that is far from being the truth.
Our guest speaker was clean-shaven,
Dressed accordingly,
And homeless.
He told us, yes, sometimes people are on the streets because they have substance abuse issues, but a lot of the time they simply can't afford a home. They don't have enough money to sustain themselves on the "typical" American lifestyle.
He now speaks to the mayor and advocates on behalf of the homeless people and the community of men and women that live in Tent City. Every few months they need to move locations, and someone has to figure it out for them.
At first my classmates and I were timid about asking questions, but once one person raised their hand everyone else had something to ask as well. Eventually I raised mine. "Have you ever considered writing your story down so that people can read it and learn from your experiences? And so they can understand what it's like to be you?"
He looked at me, smiled, and then answered, "I would love too, but I don't have time. There are so many other things for me to take care of and I wouldn't have the time to write out my story."
Bummer. It would be such a great story to write. I bet it would be a great story that a lot of people would read.
My mind became a whirlwind of thoughts as I continued to listen to the rest of his answers to various questions, including one about religion, which turns out to be a sensitive subject in a camp full of people without homes. (I find that totally understandable.)
Before I knew it the questioning was over and the man I would have never taken for homeless if I had passed him on the street, left.
Then I bowed my head and without warning tears started slipping from my eyes. I couldn't stop and they were spilling over my cheeks and down my face. I wasn't making a sound, but I was gushing tears everywhere. What is going on? Why am I crying?
My friend Rochelle saw me. "Oh my goodness, what's wrong?"
I started spewing something about how lucky we are and how much we have and how I wanted to help them somehow. I just couldn't believe they were right down the street in tents in the middle of Queen Anne, Seattle while the rest of us were snug in our dorms and pretty houses.
It was if some kind of spring inside of me had burst loose. I have known for a long time that I have a heart for homeless people, but I didn't know it was so strong that it could cause me to be perfectly content one moment and spewing tears the next. All I wanted to do was run down to Tent City and spend the rest of the day talking to the people who live there.
The wheels in my mind were, and are, still turning.
What if working with homeless people is my calling? What if I can somehow pair that with the incredible gift for writing that God has given me? What if, what if, what if…
I've decided I'm going to seriously pray about this.
My heart is telling me that this isn't something I can ignore.
I've gone my whole life seeing but I feel as I've I finally need to DO something.
It would take far too long for me to explain how these puzzle pieces have fallen in place the last few months but I do have a general idea of what I need to start doing, and I'm slowly working on that.
The rest is unknown, but I will be keeping everyone updated. That's for sure.

I hope your week was splendid! I know mine was. Here's some links to enjoy this weekend.
Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the rush and forget our dreams. It takes courage to stand for the dreams that matter to us. Michael Hyatt's "6 Steps to More Courage" is a helpful reminder.
Along the same lines, Leadership Freak provided some tips on prioritizing in order to make the most of one's time.
Meanwhile, John Maxwell talks about how to examine the driving force behind our actions.
Perhaps my favorite find of the week was"How Jane Austen Taught Me to be a Man" by William Deresiewicz in the Wall Street Journal. If you don't have a subscription, it's worth signing up for the two-week trial subscription just to read it. Deresiewicz perfectly pegs one of Austen's greatest lessons when he writes, "You don't have to be certain, I discovered, to be strong. And you don't have to dominate people to earn their respect."
Although the article is aimed at a male audience, I can fully relate to many of the author's points. My favorite line of the article occurs when Deresiewicz writes, " I wasn't just aggressively sure of myself. I was also oblivious to the feelings of the people around me, a bulldozer stuck in overdrive."
My sister shared Pinecone Camp with me a few days ago...I look forward to browsing through her lovely photos and archived posts!
What did you read this week?

The one thing I had wanted to do since I got back – eat at The Place (Ti Jaaga as @BziB put it one time and almost gave me a seizure from laughing too hard. Marathi. Ti Jaaga. The Place. Yes, come back when you're done laughing too.)
7, Clover Centre,
Moledina Road,
My dad isn't too fond of Sizzlers. My mum and I *love* them. If Saturday nights aren't great-food-great-alcohol at home, it usually means we're out for dinner. And if my dad is out of town on work, it's just the mother and me. And that's when we go to places he would've given a miss. The Place, being one. Chung Fa, being another. I think this has something to do with the fact that I studied at St. Mary's. For those of you who know Pune, you know just what I'm talking about.
This was one of those nights. Getting work done in and around the cantonment: getting dupattas dyed, buyng fabric for kurtas, walking down MG Road just because. And dining at The Place. Mum and I.
We started off with the oh-so-famous Garlic Mushrooms. Button mushrooms, coated with a batter of bread crumbs and eggs and deep fried to burn-your-tongue goodness. They're served with French mustard, the kind I love, the kind that goes up to my nose. And a tartar sauce that is quite unlike the regular. To me, it's a pretty, light pink sauce – just mayonnaise mixed with ketchup and garlic. But boy, is it good, or what! We ALWAYS order Garlic Mushrooms at The Place.
A Carlsberg kept me company. Not too bad a beer. Almost like apna good ol' Kingfisher.
Mum ordered the fish and chips. Terribly small portion. Served with the conventional tartar sauce – relish, mayo, shallots based. All in all, it looked alright. No picture of the tartar sauce, my apologies. And sigh, for I just realized it's Tartare Sauce and not Tartar Sauce. Tartar Sauce is what it's called in American English.
I ordered the fish steak. Fantastic. Two filets of King Fish cooked perfectly well in win sauce and peppercorn. Yes, I could taste both, very distinctly. And for that, my happiness knew no bounds. Also served were a tonne of veggies and fries. My sizzler eating policy is such: eat the veggies first. Order no rice, it's too filling. Then start off with the fries. Leave the meat for the end. That way, there's no way you're not going to finish an entire sizzler. You've got to eat the meat, right? That's what you ordered the sizzler for, to begin with!
Mum asked for a Chicken Tikka Stuffed Naan later because she was still a little hungry. It was spicy. And tasty. Stuffed naans needs to be experimented with in the kitchen. Soon.
Why I like The Place:
It hasn't changed in decades! I've had dinners there since I was ye little. The staff is the same. The old wooden struts on the inside are unchanged. The stained glass panels are as they have always been – red and yellow and blue – and giving the restaurant a quaintness (if that's a word) of it's own. The cutlery is the same. Their knives are SO good for steak-cutting. Ok. Their table napkins had smaller checks this time around. But there's a warmth about the place that I absolutely adore. Almost crave, if I haven't been there in too long.
What I didn't like this time around:
My clothes ended up smelling of Indian food. And that is one thing I hate. Absolutely hate. It has never happened before with the food here. And I was upset about it.
The highlight of the dinner was this hunk of a Delhi boy who walked in a few minutes after we did. Black shirt. Chiseled features. Fair. All of that. Obviously, I only assume he was a Delhi dude because he looked so North Indian. And one is allowed to assume such stuff. I caught him looking at me a few times and it made me feel good. Works when you're single and looking, right? *grin*

In Newfoundland and Labrador, the plot thickens:
Through Freedom of Information the opposition Liberals got hold of Minister of Education Joan Burke's questions for the short-listed candidates for the MUN presidency:
Now, if you were ever in a position to interview a potential president of Memorial University, you might be interested – as Burke has purported to be – in the person's vision for the university. How would they improve its good reputation? Expand or change degree programs? Increase domestic and international enrolment? Attract more research funding? Inspire academic excellence in students and faculty, and loyalty and generosity in alumni?
But no, Burke's questions reveal there is only room for one type of vision at the helm of Memorial University – one that matches the provincial government's own agenda and includes strong support for autonomy for Sir Wilfred Grenfell College in Corner Brook.
1. "As President, how would you see the University and the Province working together?"
2. "What government strategies and initiatives are of particular relevance to the University?"
3. "What mechanisms would you employ to ensure collaboration on areas of mutual interest?"
4. "… Government has provided direction on implementing a new governance model to increase Grenfell's autonomy. How would you identify issues related to implementation? What might the barriers be and how would you overcome them? What factors would facilitate success?"
Hell, they should ask Shawn Graham for his "Action Plan." It's all there.

Happy Thanksgiving! Ari Has Croup!
Needless to say, it's been extremely difficult to get him back to sleep at night and during the day for naps. So what am I thankful for right now? This:
I haven't showered in four days, and I've been a chicken soup-making machine*, but I don't care. I just want him to get better already.
Have your kids had croup? Do tell!
*I make my chicken soup from scratch, if you want the recipe email me at email@example.com

We haven't been down that road yet. Hope Ari is feeling better soon and you find some time to shower!ReplyDelete
Amen, Amanda!ReplyDelete
Galit-We are steaming away in this house. The cold part is trickier. Right now we have the window open. What's the best way to do the cold part?
OMG- How awful. my little guy had it around 6 months old and I thought he was having an asthma attack he was wheezing SO badly with it. It made me nervous that I had him sleep in my bed with me. He hated it, but it reassured me as I listened to his wheezy breathing.ReplyDelete
Horrible for you- hope he's feeling better.
That sounds just terrible. And bad coughs always take forever to recover from. So sorry for you guys. But liquids, liquids, liquids. Yay for Chicekn Soup (especially for you - it being part of your birthright and all!)ReplyDelete

Back with more random toys from the infamous junk box.
I have been going to comic shops since I was fairly young. And sadly Comic Book Guy isn't just an creation of the show. I have met many many Comic Book Guys running various comic shops. With David Sincere of Sincere Comics,two stores one in Mobile AL and one in Florida,being the best example of a real life CBG. Many times I watched him insult the customers to their faces.
Back in 2008 I went to a yard sale that covered a huge rich ass suburb of Jackson. Pretty sure it was in Ridgeland. I wandered into one garage. The owner asked what I was looking for. I told him the various things I collect,IE Pez,toys,comics and DVDS. I had on my very old Krusty the clown shirt. "Oh give me a minute I bet I got a toy you will love." he went into his home and came back out with CBG and the Androids Dungeon Playset. And CBG even still had the half eaten hamburger. Which I have lost.
The figure has articulation at the gut,shoulders and neck. And the paint job while basic does the job. The playset is great. It really looks like a miniature version of many comic shops. And it makes sounds. There are 3 buttons. When pressed and there is no figure on the marked spots each button just makes a cash register sound. But if you have a figure on the special spots you get different phrases based on who is on the spot. Now the only Simpsons figure I have is CBG. But one day I plan on grabbing a few more.
For the 10 people that read it the Android Dungeon playset became Lord Fanboy's Funhouse in my Pezzville web comic. Maybe if people ask nicely I might bring that web comic back :P
Then 3 years ago I had gotten a huge amount of pre-record VHS tapes. A friend that collects VHS was wanting a bunch of them. And told me he had some wrestling themed Hot Wheels. So I got him to take pictures.
What he had was 2 of the Racing Champions line of WCW themed hot rods.Back in the mid to late 90s when WCW was blazing hot they signed a deal with Racing Champions. Which is a group that was just breaking into the diecast toy car market. With most of their stuff being based on legit race cars.
The WCW cars each came with a base that included a cardboard backing that was a picture of the wrestler. I know quite a few of the readers of my blog are wrestling fans. But I bet lots of them do not remember High Voltage. They were a tag team of two guys that got trained at the infamous WCW Power Plant training facility. They were two big muscled up guys who rarely won a match. For some unknown reason I was a big fan of them. And as far as I know this is the only piece of merchandise they got. And this is one of the 4 diecast toy cars I own now.
This is a Tech Deck Star Wars Darth Vader skateboard along with a Vader themed quarter pipe.These tiny fingerboards have always been interesting to me. Not that I could do any tricks on them. Hell I can barely ride a real skateboard without falling off.
As a kid I was a HUGE Star Wars fan.Owning close to all of the original Kenner released action figures. And lots of other Star Wars themed toys. And as a kid I so wanted to learn how to skate. While most kids in my neighborhood wanted to play football,baseball or basketball. I was wanting to go skating. Which was hard to do when every road was either dirt or so poorly paved it felt like you were riding over a washboard.
Back in the start of the year I was making my monthly visit to Dirt Cheap.I had seen this set there before. But they were only giving 50% off the original price of $20. Way more than I wanted to pay. Now it was 80% off the new sticker price of $15. I grabbed it thinking I would hold onto it and give it to my younger cousin for his birthday in June. Then when a few weeks ago I made a trip down to go visit him and his family I found out the only toys he wants to play with now is Legos. So once I got home I opened it up and started playing with it.
Sadly my above pictures aren't the best. The picture of the ramp doesn't show off how good the graphetti style Vader picture looks. It really looks like some one came by with a stencil and a can of red spray paint and tagged the ramp. The skateboard looks even better. You get the old school Star Wars logo at the top. Then the rest of the board has a great full length portrait of Vader.
Well people I hope you enjoyed this trip into the junk box.

The incoming head of the Port Authority said yesterday the Spitzer administration wants to take a "fresh look" at the Freedom Tower at the World Trade Center site.
Tony Shorris, executive director-designate of the authority, said, "We'll be looking at every aspect of it, both the plan and the execution of it. We'll take a fresh look at everything."
That drew a quick retort from Gov. Pataki.
Changing plans for the Freedom Tower "would be an enormous mistake," he told The Post.
Shorris acknowledged there was concern that re-examining the project would delay the timetable, which calls for the completion of the Freedom Tower by 2011.
He said "the No. 1 priority of the [incoming] governor is to get Ground Zero moving.
"The last thing that any of us wants to see is slowing down the process," Shorris said.
He added there was a "very limited" opportunity to rethink the Freedom Tower.
Pataki said the Freedom Tower is now designed to be juxtaposed with the trade center memorial – rising to 1,776 feet, making it taller than the Twin Towers were.
"It's a critical element," he said. "It should and will go forth."
Shorris' comments come amid concerns by New Jersey officials – who have equal representation with New York on the Port Authority board – that the current design is so costly it would hamper other PA projects.
Sources said New Jersey would support a downsizing of the Freedom Tower.
Spitzer has yet to spell out his views about the project and its cost, but aides say he is studying the issues.
"He is looking at it closely, and clearly some important decisions have to be made," said Paul Francis, Spitzer's choice for state budget director.
"But again, I think Eliot has been clear that provided that the federal and state leases are available and other conditions, like insurance proceeds being available, he believes that the Freedom Tower should move forward," Francis told The Post.
Spitzer named several of his appointees yesterday, including Avi Schick, an assistant state attorney general, who will play a role in the rebuilding of Ground Zero as downstate chief operating officer of the Empire State Development Corp.
At its meeting Thursday, the Port Authority voted to authorize leases with the state for 410,000 square feet of Freedom Tower.

Got weekend plans?
Need something to do on Sunday? The Greater Houston Preservation Alliance offers monthly tours of an architecturally and/or historically significant area of Houston. This month's tour is the northeast edge of the museum district known as "The Binz".
I've attended GHPA walking tours of The Houston Heights and the Chase building (formerly the Gulf building) and have really enjoyed both! The tours are a great way to learn about the history of the city and meet new people.
For more information about the tour, visit the GHPA website here.
