2012 Official HeliFreak SoCal Fun Fly Event - Oct 4-7, 2012 Fallbrook, CA
Once again we are VERY pleased to announce the Official 2012 Southern California HeliFreak Fun Fly! Once again, the Palomar RC Flyers have graciously agreed to host the event at Johnson Field in Fallbrook, CA October 4-7, 2012. Yes, we've expanded the event to FOUR days! HUGE thanks to Palomar RC Flyers President Bill Hill, Helicopter Chair Scott Dedic and the rest of the Board and especially the members of Palomar RC Flyers for allowing us to "invade" their home once again. As in the past, this event is 100% HeliFreak! No Commercial BS - just pure flying, fun and friends!! Pro Pilots confirmed so far: (If you are a Pro/Sponsored pilot and you want to attend, come on out!!! The Heli Community loves you and would love to hang with you.) Tony "Redneck Spotlight" Whiteside Tim "The Beast" Jones Greggor McGrath Devin LeBlanc Brian Tran Frank Columbia Kyle Dahl Darrin "Chainsaw" Reed Jason Bell Justin Barry Dave Ketelhut Cortez CJ Jenkins Bert Kammerer Bobby Watts JC Zankl As an added bonus, Saturday night, there will be a Circle City 3D cookout for all registered pilots. If you've missed the carne' asada and yellow chicken before, you'll definitely want to hit this up!! FaceBook Event Page by Wurger --> https://www.facebook.com/events/278492862217155/ Sponsors: As of (/16/2012, this is the official sponsor list. Each sponsor donated at least $200 in items for the raffle for a grand total of over $12,500 in prizes! Thank you to all the event sponsors!

Kevin "Skiddz" Spousta is the local event coordinator for HF in CA and will also be our CD this year. The event will be co-organized by Will James and emcee'd by Bob "Finless" White. You will have the opportunity to talk to "Finless" in person and ask for his advice, help and suggestions. As he's done with his videos, he's always willing to assist fellow hobbyists in learning and succeeding in this great hobby. This year we'd REALLY like to push on-line registration. This helps us confirm AMA status ahead of time and get everyone past the registration desk as quickly as possible. It also helps us plan for food/beverages and other "necessities". The good news is that pre-registration is STILL only $18!!! and only $20 on-site Point your mobile devices at, or click on, the QR code below to be taken to the event page where you can read all the details and register on-line. We hope to see you all there. It's a great location and a great opportunity for us 'freaks to get together and have a GREAT TIME HF Style. AMA Sanction number 12-0797. ***Any commercial media ventures (magazines online and offline, web forums, web sites, blogs, etc.) will be REQUIRED to have media "Press" badges for all their photographers and videographers who attend the event. ALL Commercial media representatives MUST contact Will James by PM or email for preregistration of press credentials and clearly display them at all times during event hours. This is NOT negotiable and NO press passes will be issued at the time of the event.*** Last edited by Skiddz; 10-02-2012 at 09:08 PM.. Reason: Added new Sponsor |

And now, the details and technical stuff:
WHERE?? Once again, Palomar RC Flyers' Johnson Field will be the event site. It is located just North of the Intersection of S76 and Pankey Road in Fallbrook, CA. From Interstate 15, head East on S76 about 1/4 mile and turn left at Pankey Road. Go through the green gate at the end of the road and proceed to the field. Here's a link to Google Maps: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Pankey...92028&t=h&z=16 Travel If you're flying in and wondering how close the various airports are to the field, here's a list of airports with distances and estimated times: San Diego Lindbergh Field - 48.9 miles, 53 mins Los Angeles International - 106 miles, 1 hour, 52 mins Ontario International Airport - 67 miles, 1 hour, 14 mins. John Wayne Airport - 66.3 miles, 1 hour 16 mins. Burbank Airport - 109 miles, 1 hour, 59 mins and if you want to foot the bill for the commuter trip to the closest airport with actual airline service, fly into Los Angeles and then on to Carlsbad: Palomar Airport - 26.2 mi, 35 mins Night flying: *** Amain Hobbies has stepped up and will be providing 2 light towers for Friday and Saturday night's flying. Those units should be able to flood the entire runway and surrounding area with light. Big thanks to Kendall Bennett, Kevin Kiser and the rest of the Amain team!!! *** Unrestricted dusk until 10pm. Music shut down at 10pm, Spotlights ok until 11pm Self-Illuminated until 12am Spotlight holders to wear safety vests and be stationed in specific areas. Pilot to be pushed out towards North edge of runway with a blue tarp staked down in the dirt for takeoff and landing. **UPDATE** We're working on a new space plan to get the pilots able to fly over the runway during the event. Looks VERY promising right now Spectators to be held behind a safety line paralleling the runway. Flightline: Safety brief each morning at 0830 and again towards dusk for those who wish to night fly. These will be kept very brief. Two Safety Marshals at both fields at all times in safety vests. (We need volunteers!) Safety Marshalls to have radios and remain in contact with Will, Bob and Kevin at all times. Flight stations to be pushed forward to at least the centerline of the runway. ONE spotter required per pilot ONE photo/videographer per flight station WITH the pilot's permission. - Last year's pictures show these two safety items were violated on more than one occasion. We have to abide by the AMA rules to get our sanction for the event as well as the insurance that protects you, us and the Palomar club who is nice enough to let us invade their fine facility- Spectators/easy-ups to be pushed back at least 65' feet from the flightline even at the far West end where the road begins to curl North at the main field. Buffer zone at the South field will be similarly maintained. Pilots waiting to fly will be held back at LEAST 25' from the flight station. No pets on the flightline. We are planning on having at least one, if not two golf carts running between the two sites on a semi-regular schedule. (again, we need volunteers!) Contests: Like last year, we're planning on 3 contests: Spot Autorotation Duration Autorotation Drag Race John Shipley has graciously offered CASH prizes for the winners of these events. Sign-up sheets will be available at the registration desk for anyone interested in competing. Food: Palomar RC will handle food like they did last year, (We're hoping Bill Hill's wife helps out again - her cooking was DELICIOUS!!) on a donation basis, available from approximately 0800 to 1800 each day of the event with one exception; Some of the Circle City Flyers would like to host a carne' asada BBQ on Saturday night. Palomar will not provide "dinner" that evening. This is a donations only BBQ, similar to how the club did food last year. Shoes: No red shoes are allowed on the flightline unless they're worn by Darrin Reed. Parking/Camping/Site Layout: Palomar has their own mower and can clear any areas they wish so we're considering trying to create 2-3 more stations somewhere on the field. Space layout has been determined. Please see below for details. A few "loading/Unloading" ONLY spaces up front will be provided. Please move your car once you've got your gear unloaded/loaded to allow someone else to use the space. We'll work out RV parking as well and I assume we'll have Helifreak Central in a travel trailer right up front again. RVs can start arriving AFTER 4pm on Wednesday the 3rd and there is to be NO flying until Thursday morning at the main runway. Please be courteous to the club members who may be there flying. It's their field until 0800 Thursday morning. No generators after 11pm please. (Not even the Hondas/Yamahas) If you have a LOUD generator, (you know, ones that sound like 15 coffee cans full of marbles bouncing around inside a 55 gallon drum inside a running cement mixer?) bring a LONG extension cord and put the thing well away from the pit and spectator areas. **UPDATE** Palomar President Bill Hill and I (Skiddz) walked the entire site a couple weeks ago and have come up with a preliminary space plan to offer as many as 9 flight stations and much better RV and parking density. Here's how it's working out thus far: How it works out: Yellow shapes are RV parking spots. They're 40 feet long and 15 feet wide. (I measured the width of my trailer with the awning all the way out for the width) Green shapes are car parking spots. 8.5' wide, 18 feet long. (Standard CA spot size per the documents I found online.) You can see we can fit a boatload of cars in the main lot and provide 100+ more on the "overflow" lot to the East. Blue shapes are 12'x12' eazy-ups. Bill Hill and I spoke about double stacking them which still leaves us at LEAST 65' feet from the canopies to the pilot stations in all locations per AMA guidelines.. "Blobs" in front of the cars West of the main RV parking are 6'x6' tents. We should be able to stack those in with the tent camper's cars and still allow them in/out access with their vehicles. The transparent grey-blue shapes are flight boxes. All of them but the West one on the main runway are 150' wide. I removed one to create a 200' wide box for people who might want a little more room for sport style flying. Grey shapes with the lines through them are as follows from right to left: 20'x20' Kitchen for the Palomar folks to feed us. 100'x20' Vendor/Team tent and a 40'x20' Vendor Team tent extension. The 2 RV spaces perpendicular to each other are Helifreak Headquarters. The other one near the Kitchen is Palomar RC Flyer's President Bill Hill's coach. Trash/Sanitation Last year we all did pretty good with the trash. If at all possible, bring a couple trashbags and take your own garbage hone with you for disposal. We're expecting another large turnout and we need to remember we're guests at the Palomar field and need to make a concerted effort to leave the site in the same (or better!) condition when we leave. Toilet facilities will be much improved with a total of 8 Port-a-Potties and at least 2 hand wash stations on site. Additionally, the club has contracted daily cleanings for all 8 Port-a-Potties.. Vendors/Teams: As it was with the past events, vendors/teams are be asked to make a donation to the raffle of current product valued at at least $200 or make an equivalent cash donation. This allows you one tent/Easy-Up space in the "midway" area (We're keeping all vendors/teams in one area this year) and ONE banner displayed on the fence near the pits. An additional vendor space is an additional $150+ in raffle prize donations or cash. Space in the "midway" is first come, first served. All donations will be sent to my attention: Kevin Spousta c/o FLYIT Simulators, Inc. 5931 Sea Lion Place Suite 110 Carlsbad, CA 92010 Sponsor names will be printed on the the shirts again this year, and we will be sure to mention them when their raffle donations are given away and the team/company name will be displayed on the 1st post of the Event thread. Video and stills of the raffle will be taken and posted here in the Event thread and on the HF Facebook page to maximize sponsors exposure. SPONSORSHIP HAS EXPIRED!! If you didn't get your sponsorship information to us, you're not going to get your name on the shirt. If you'd still like to donate to the raffle, we'll be more than happy to announce you at the raffle! Your donations must arrive prior to the sponsorship deadline of Friday, September 14. If you plan on bringing your items with you when you travel, we'll need a letter of intent from you detailing what you're providing. Failure to provide the letter or the product prior to midnight on Friday, September 14 will result in removal from the vendor/team area. Please make note that there will be NO noon time demos. If you wish, you can ask Bob White (Finless) or one of the other HF Staff members to announce your pilots and their machine at whatever station he or she may be flying. All pilots, regardless of team or manufacturer affiliation, will wait their turn to fly. There will be no preferential treatment and no monopolization of a flight station or area of the field by teams/manufacturers. Media: Any commercial media ventures (magazines, web forums, blogs, sites, facebook pages, etc.) will be REQUIRED to have a media pass. ALL Commercial media representatives MUST contact Will James for a media pass for every photographer or videographer you will have on site at any time during the event. This is NOT negotiable. Registration/Administrivia: CD is to be Skiddz, enlisting the assistance of Augusto as Backup CD. REGISTRATION ONLINE REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED. IF YOU DID NOT PRE-REGISTER, YOU WILL HAVE TO REGISTER ON-SITE. ON-SITE REGISTRATION IS $20. We would like to make a serious push to get people to register online. This makes it a lot easier for us to verify AMA status ahead of time (You still need to bring your card!) and get people through the registration process at the field more quickly. Registration page is available by clicking on the QR code in the first post above, or by scanning the QR code with your smartphone or tablet. Note: If you are not a United States resident and do not have an AMA membership, you will be required to obtain an "Affiliate Membership" in the AMA in order to fly. The cost is $28 and you MUST have a current membership in your country's National Aero Club. Details and the application form are here: http://www.modelaircraft.org/files/903.pdf Additionally, we will be able to process AMA applications on-site, however, we ask that you get it taken care of ahead of time as our resources to process the paperwork will be limited on-site. For Canadian residents: AMA has a reciprocal agreement with MAAC. A current MAAC card will be honored at all sanctioned events or chartered club activities. Volunteers/organizers will be scheduled in shifts so no one person ends up sitting there for hours at a time. All pilots will be receiving an event badge *and* a colored wrist band when they register. Badges will be for identification. We agree that wrist bands are a pain in the butt, but we had a few instances last year of people not registering and flying and also demanding a refund, receiving that refund and then they were caught flying later. (You know who you are and so do we.) We unfortunately have to do this to maintain control over the event and make it easy for you and us as well as the Palomar host team. Raffle: Same as last year. One ticket is provided for each pilot when they register/check-in. Additional tickets are available for $1 each up to a maximum of 25 tickets and may distributed amongst the prize boxes as desired. HELIFREAK STAFF, PALOMAR RC BOARD MEMBERS AND SPONSORED PILOTS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE! *ONLY* registered pilots are eligible for the raffle. (Again, Helifreak Staff members, Palomar RC Board members and Sponsored pilots are not eligible.) Reps who get a discounts on parts are ok, but if you're getting freebies, please either don't participate or give your winnings to a "regular Joe" pilot. You *MUST* be present to win and you *MUST* have your pilot's badge and wristband to collect your prize. This year, there will be a Volunteer only raffle. Only people who have volunteered (and are not part of the Helifreak Support Staff or Palomar RC Flyers Board or Sponsored) and helped out during the event will be eligible for these prizes. We've decided on a helicopter kit as the prize for this raffle and may add a few more prizes as the event nears.. We will be issuing raffle tickets in a different color than the general raffle based on hours served - 1 ticket for every 2-hour shift. We are still looking for a few more volunteers, so if you are attending and would like to help, please PM me or preferably Skiddz. (OK Just kidding about Skiddz Will) There will be a volunteer sign-in sheet at the show-center tent as well. Some of the prizes donated so far: Alees Rush 750 kit (Possibly TWO) Logo 600 kit Goblin 700 kit Goblin 630 kit Blade 130X Aurora 120 kit New Align T-Rex 700 DFC Kit Century Radikal G20 HD kit Compass 7HV Kit TWO custom canopies Logo 600 Canopy Helicommand Stabilization System Heliproz South Gift Certificates FYE-Tech Y6 Hexacopter FYE-Tech FY-91Q Basic Flight Controller FIVE RC Logger Digital Pitch Gauges - V2s! 24V 1200W Power Supply 15.5v 600W Power Supply 14V 350W Power Supply Five 2S 450mah 25C Lipos 693 and 713 Edge blades ...and lots of other swag! Keep checking the first two posts in this thread for details as they may change as we continue planning the event. Same FUN Event and fun people attending. Great food, great friends!! See ya there!!

Since it's such a long haul for me, I think I'll wait a few months before pre-registering to make sure I don't have any catastrophes that would prevent the trip. As my plans stand now, I will be there!

This is your chance - New Opportunists
AIRED ON Fri.09.Jan.2004 - 13:00 GMT
Britainâs long-standing culture of hesitation has now given way to a nation of thrill-seekers. These âNew Opportunistsâ see life as a lottery, embracing chances and change in every area â from their romantic lives to their jobs. As well as hosting her own music show on VH1 and a raft of live programmes including The BAFTAs, The BRITS and Pop Idol Extra, Kate joined us live online to tell us how as a âNew Opportunistâ she made it to where she is today and how she manages to stay at the forefront of her profession.
Kate T | Hi guys ready when you are... |
Lisa wants to know: "Which new opportunity would you take if it were presented to you in 2004? I.e. bungee jumping, enter a reality TV show etc etc" | |
Kate T said: | Bungee Jumping terrifies me but i try to keep an open mind about most things. I take every offer as it comes. |
Feedmejuicythings wants to know: "Kate, firstly I'd just like to say congratulations on an amazing series of Pop Idol Extra! Do you think this 'New Opportunist' phenomena describes you? You didn't go to Uni did you but it seems your hedonistic attitude has got you where you want to be! That plus a dash of talent of course ;-)" | |
Kate T said: | I wish I were hedonistic! I think I am where I am because I got lucky in terms of being in the right place at the right time and then working my nuts off when I got there! |
Dan wants to know: "What are your New Year resolutions?" | |
Kate T said: | Hi Dan, None - why set yourself up for a fall! |
George wants to know: "Have you ever let a big opportunity pass you by?" | |
Kate T said: | Yes but at the time passing it up was the right thing to do. However, because that opportunity was a very handsome man I do kick myself now! |
N Marshall wants to know: "How do you manage to work so hard and look so ravishing?" | |

Kate T said: | Lie, cheat or steal Nick! |
Cullendavid wants to know: "Hello gorgeous when the next pop idol coming on any chance of seeing you sing next time?" | |

Lauren wants to know: "You have a great relationship with Simon Cowell and won't stand any nonsense from him. What's the nastiest thing he's said to you and how did you get your own back?" | |
Kate T said: | Hi Lauren - I don't think Simon has been nasty in terms of trying to hurt me or be spiteful. He's caustic by nature, but I like that. As for me being nasty to him I don't think he was impressed when he read in The Sun that I had called him 'Short and Hairy'! |
Shazza wants to know: "Kate who do you think should have won Pop Idol? " | |
Kate T said: | The right person did win because the public voted and Michelle won the majority of the votes. |

Candice wants to know: "What advice can you give me on getting involved in journalism?" | |
Kate T said: | Get on the right courses and get as much work experience as you can and never take no for an answer. And if at first you don't succeed try try again! |
nobidol wants to know: "hi Kate - how scary was it taking over smash hits at such a young age" | |
Kate T said: | I think because I was so young, I wasn't as scared as I would be taking the job now. Looking back it was one of the best experiences of my life and I am so pleased I did it. |
Daniella wants to know: "What is a New Opportunist? " | |
Kate T said: | Anyone who makes the most of what's put in front of them and someone who isn't afraid to go after what they want in life. |
Shazza wants to know: "Kate did you have a crush on anyone you interviewed in your Smash Hits days?" | |
Kate T said: | As the editor you rarely do interviews and during my time at Smash Hits the Spice girls were huge and as much as I think they were great I never fancied them. Boys are much more my thing! |
Becky wants to know: "Who is the most famous person you have ever met and who is the person you would most like to interview this year?" | |

Kate T said: | Simon and I never have been or never will be an item! Sorry, I love him but in the same way you love someone you totally don't fancy plus he is a really good friend! |
petr wants to know: "If you won the lottery, how would you spend £10 million? Do you have someone who fetches your tickets for you? ;)" | |

Leanne wants to know: "Hi Kate, I am Leanne, my question is, was there anyone on Pop Idol you secretly thought, I want this person to win? I bet there was." | |
Kate T said: | Of course there was, but I couldn't possibly say whom! |
Vicky wants to know: "Could you give me some tips for being a TV presenter 'cause I would love to be one?" | |
Kate T said: | Get a good showreel and a good agent and apply for work experience in order to make contacts in the industry. Good luck Vicky |
Bex wants to know: "Kate, Are you really into the music that you promote? I mean we all love a bit of RnB from time to time but some of this pop is utter nonsense don't you think? There's lots of new opportunists in their bedrooms making music and I'm sure they could blow the socks off some of this lot!" | |
Kate T said: | I just like good music. I don't care what genre it is or if it came from a bedroom or a top-notch recording studio. A good song is a good song. Variety is what makes our charts so unique in terms of the rest of the world. |
jenny wants to know: "Is there an ambition that you would still like to achieve in your life?" | |
Kate T said: | Yes - to meet Mr Wonderful and to have his children! |

Ewan wants to know: "Hi Kate I think you're absolutely gorgeous. I'm 26, fit and funny. How does this 'New Opportunist' get into your good books???" | |

Anna wants to know: "What are you up to this weekend? Are you a posh bar and club girl or the local?" | |
Kate T said: | I am a pub girl! And this weekend I will be in the pub with my mates. |
Ninja wants to know: "Your opinion Kate: Every woman seems to instantly adore/fantasize about handsome men as spouses - Wow! Aren't the ugly ones in for a perpetual life of misery?" | |
Kate T said: | You certainly have a point! |
Ninja wants to know: "Your opinion Kate: Every woman seems to instantly adore/fantasize about handsome men as spouses - Wow! Aren't the ugly ones in for a perpetual life of misery?" | |
Kate T said: | Laos is near Vietnam and Cambodia and I will probably end up holidaying in either Thailand or Ibiza or both! |
Patty wants to know: "Where do you get your clothes?" | |
Kate T said: | From all over. I love the high street especially TopShop and Warehouse. But if it is a really special occasion then I turn to Tracy Boyd, Pinko, Studd or Elspeth Gibson. |
Alex wants to know: "If you are out on a social night out and saw someone you were attracted to – what would you do?" | |

Kate T said: | Yes I would at that point what have you got to lose! |
Jack wants to know: "Why buy your lottery ticket online, surely its easier to go into a shop?" | |

Rob wants to know: "Hi Katie, What would be the biggest risk you'd be prepared to take for love?" | |
Kate T said: | For the right man you would take any risk! |
Lisa M wants to know: "Hiya Kate, how was it to work with ant and dec? i want to become an actress and they inspire me so much, are they really as nice as they seem!!! lol! Look forward to your reply Love Lisa" | |
Kate T said: | Hi Lisa, they are an absolute dream to work with and I love them to pieces. Cat Deely and I have both been very lucky to share the screen time with them. |
Hickey wants to know: "As you were 'famous' so early in life, how did your friends respond?" | |
Kate T said: | I don't feel famous. I just have a well-known face and I had worked behind the scenes before I went on camera so I think I have a really healthy take on what is real and what is not when it comes to being on TV. |
liz wants to know: "hello Kate can you tell me your most embarrassing moment....." | |
Kate T said: | How long have you got? I think my skirt splitting and exposing my bottom to Cherie Blair has to be one of the most embarrassing moments of my life! Just talking about it makes me cringe. |

Hickey wants to know: "How do you decide which jobs to take? You seem to have worked in a varied field so far." | |
Kate T said: | I just go with what excites me and trust my gut instinct. That and the fact that I have a very strong-minded agent who keeps me on the straight and narrow! |
Jason wants to know: "Hi there Kate at the bottom it says u host ur own music show on vh1? What is this show i have never seen it but since u host it i must see it!!"? | |
Kate T said: | That information is out of date. I do occasional specials for VH1 but I haven't presented a regular show for them for 3 years. |
hickey wants to know: "Transporting yourself into a dream world, which show would you host and why?" | |
Kate T said: | I already host my dream show - Pop Idol. I can't think of a show I would rather do. |

Kate T said: | Never! It terrifies me. |
Hickey wants to know: "What's your response to the critics who quote to much Pop Idol type content on the box. For instance the new Channel4 series 'Shattered' seems to be taking it too far!" | |
Kate T said: | Pop Idol is a music show and Shattered is an endurance show so I can't even see how the two are comparable. Sorry |
Daz wants to know: "Kate would you ever consider going on celeb big bro, or any other reality TV show!(but please not I'm a celeb get me out of here!)" | |
Kate T said: | No - I like presenting not participating! |
Polly wants to know: "What job have you not liked doing?" | |
Kate T said: | Shampooing an old ladies hair and answering the phone at an STD clinic in London when I was a student. |
Laura wants to know: "What do you enjoy doing when you have a day off and have no plans?" | |
Kate T said: | I eat, drink and get merry with my friends! |
Wendy wants to know: "What's been your most challenging interview?" | |
Kate T said: | For obvious reasons interviewing Gareth Gates on Live TV was always tricky, but much more so for him than for me. I really felt for him. |

Kate T said: | Lisa, it all depends on what you want to do. If you are looking for a career in the media then there is much more choice in London. But there are also great opportunities in Edinburgh and Glasgow. |
Mike wants to know: "You have said you have a new man in your life but you must spend a lot of time away from home filming. Does work take priority in your life? " | |
Kate T said: | At the moment I seem to be balancing the 2 but check in with me in 6 months time and I will tell you how I am doing! |
Jemima wants to know: "Kate, Would you pack everything in and go travelling for a year yourself? " | |
Kate T said: | I get tempted on a weekly basis! Most people take off because there is not much to keep them at home, there is no way I would want to leave what I have got going on at home at the moment. |

Kate T said: | No - I am a complete coward! |

TSH results need help
TSH results need help
got my TSH results in if someone can help me interpret it i would appreciate it , i know i need alot other thyroid tests but this is all i have right now.
0.466 reference : 0.450-4.500
What do you guys think?
Also ive been experiencing very severe vertigo latley which caused me to time take time off work , does thyroid imbalances induce vertigo in any way? - 03-26-2012, 10:39 PM
Tells me nothing need ft4 and ft3, rt3, total t4, as well as proper adrenal stress cortisol profile. I have seen people who are extreme athletes with TSH as low as yours with low ft3 and ft4. Again you need to look at it more indept then just TSH. Too many variables to consider..

American History on the Screen: A Teacher's Resource Book on Film and Video.
Wilson, Wendy S.; Herman, Gerald H.
For many students, films and television provide not only a chief source of entertainment, but their only glimpse of history outside of a formal classroom. This book aims to stimulate media awareness and critical viewing skills in students through lessons in critical analysis and historical interpretation of selected films. The films chosen for examination are presentations of history rather than documentations of history. These historical presentation films may present historical content in four ways: (1) as factual record; (2) to convey atmosphere; (3) to suggest analogy; or (4) as a lesson in historiography. The book is organized into a beginning teacher's guide and information section followed by 15 units on specific historic periods. The teacher's section includes an introduction, bibliography, video sources, master index of feature films, and reproducible student material. Most units also have reproducible student pages consisting of a guide of what to watch for in a film, and a worksheet that includes a vocabulary list and questions based on the film. The units offer background, plot synopsis and ideas for class discussion of the suggested film. These units and films include: (1) "The Colonial Experience: 'Three Sovereigns for Sarah'" (1986); (2) "The American Revolution: '1776'" (1972); (3) "The Expansion of the New Nation: 'The Buccaneer' (1958)"; (4) "The Civil War: 'Glory'" (1989); (5) "The West: 'Dances with Wolves'" (1990); (6) "World War I: '1918'" (1985); (7) "The Twenties: 'Matewan'" (1987); (8) "The Great Depression: 'The Grapes of Wrath'" (1940); (9) "World War II: 'Air Force'" (1943); (10) "The Cold War: 'Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb'" (1964); (11) "Civil Rights Movement: 'The Long Walk Home'" (1991); (12) "Life in the Fifties and Sixties: 'American Graffiti'" (1972); (13) covers the Vietnam War with a teacher's guide to films and documentary sources; and (14) "The End of the Twentieth Century: 'Nightbreaker'" (1988). Unit 15, "Teaching Media Literacy Through Film: The OK Corral Gunfight--A Case Study," is a comparative study of the same event as shown by three films: "My Darling Clementine" (1946), "Gunfight at the OK Corral" (1957), and "Doc" (1971).

Team consultant Marko, Austrian team owner Dietrich Mateschitz's right-hand man, is referring to the fact that powerful F1 rivals have been complaining all season about the alleged illegality of the Adrian Newey-penned car.
"It is not just our success," he is quoted by Kleine Zeitung newspaper.
"We have at most the third biggest budget in formula one. We are a private team, not a car manufacturer, and that hurts them even more," added Marko.
He said he has "lost count" of the number of legality tests carried out by the FIA that the RB6 has always passed.
"It is continually suspected that our cars are not according to the rules," said Marko.
"If we put in the same amount of energy on watching what the other teams are doing, as some of the others do, then our car would not be as fast.
"This is just part of the psychological warfare. We can only take it in our stride," he added.
Marko also revealed that the men who have contributed to the success of the dominant RB6 are constantly courted by rival teams.
"All of our top talent have long-term commitments, but they've all had other offers," he said.
"Adrian (Newey) could earn more money somewhere else, but it is with us that he can really work freely. Our philosophy suits him best, the spirit in our team is unique and we are all aimed in the same direction."
Even though the leads should arguably be much bigger, Red Bull is narrowly heading both championship tables at present.
"There are seven races left," said Marko. "It will be crucial to have no failures, because our goal is the world title.
"And we want to maintain this same level for the next five years," he added.

Clean Water Act Lawyers
Locate a Local Government Lawyer
What Is the Clean Water Act?
The Federal Water Pollution Control Acts Amendment of 1972 addressed the growing concern of many Americans about the degrading quality of water in lakes, streams, oceans, etc. In 1977, the act was amended and became known as the Clean Water Act. This act helps to regulate the amount of pollutant discharge from industries and set safety requirements for water. In addition, the law makes it a federal crime to discharge any pollutants without a permit. Over the years, there have been many amendments and modifications to the Clean Water Act.
What Are Some Types of Water Pollutants?
There are many types of water pollutants. However, the most common types are listed below. These include:
- Lead - This is a metal found in old or degraded pipes that can cause physical and mental injury
- Pesticides - There are occasions in which homeowners that use household pesticides or other cleaners don't properly dispose of these chemicals.
- Septic systems - Homeowners should take proper steps to make certain septic systems are clean and don't cause runoff that may enter drinking water
How Can I Report a Violation?
An environmental emergency requires citizens to take immediate action to prevent any future damage. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) lists various steps to report any environmental concerns. These include:
- Call the National Response Center (NRC) - The NRC responds immediately to any environmental emergency. They can be reached at 1-800-424-8802.
- Call a Local Environmental Agency
Should I Consult an Attorney?
An experienced environmental attorney can be extremely helpful in addressing any issues regarding water pollution. In addition, businesses or neighbors that have not taken proper safety measures in discharging pollutants or chemicals may be liable for a negligence action.

Oh its about that time of year when nothing is better than drinking a pim's cup with some friends with a breeze to help cool you off. This is another image I took from my brother's wedding last June. I just love the colors!
details: cake!
Who doesn't love a good cake? Or better yet a lovely cupcake? All I think when I see this image is "yoink!" and how I could probably eat 10 of the mini cupcakes at one time.
This week I wanted to post some details shots, one a day, to go along with beautiful weather we are having (and lets hope it continues!). This first shot is from my brother's wedding back in June. I love the dreamy quality it has… this definitely makes me think of summer time.

I have some limited experience with HVLP spraying water base poly. It works well if the ambient temperature is not to high. If it is to warm the spray drys to fast and gets a "orange peel" finish. I would say somewhere around 60-70 degrees would be best. -- Les B, Oregon |

#9 posted 11-26-2009 09:05 AM |
I've sprayed over 15 gallons of Minwax water based through an old Wagner Finecoat cheap HVLP. On vertical surfaces, it will run very easily, so light coats are a must. It's a bit tricky to get a wet enough coat without running, but can be done with a little practice. Raising the grain isn't a problem for me. Sanding after the first coats knocks off any raised grain, and I can sometimes get away with only two coats. I also spray it over water soluble aniline dyes. The dyes really raise the grain, but again, sanding the first coat of poly removes the raised grain, and the second coat goes on perfect. For flat horizontal panels, you can lay a very heavy final coat for the second coat and get a really nice finish. If you look at my kitchen pics in my projects, it was all sprayed with the Minwax. The downside is the cost, at about $40/gallon. For my next project, I'm going to try the Hydrocote Resisthane from Highland Hardware. It go great reviews in a comparison test I saw a while back, and it's 25% cheaper. -- Gerry, http://www.thecncwoodworker.com/index.html http://www.jointcam.com |

I've been spraying wb finishes with a cheap HVLP gun for several years. The results has brought my finishing up to a professional level. These days, I would be hard pressed to go back to using a brush. First, I am not a fan of minwax wb finishes. Check out Target Coatings for wb finishes. The BIG TRICK is to learn how to adjust your gun. That takes time and expierence. Read up on it. Second, I very rarely have had a run spraying vertical surfices. If you get a run, just immediately whipe it off and spray over the spot. Spraying wb finishes is very forgiving, you will enjoy the expierence and will be impressed with the results. Keep making those wood chips. -- The wood is good. |
#11 posted 11-27-2009 05:24 AM |
I have sprayed Minwax, Olympic and General Finishes. All pose similar problems. None take kindly to thinning. All of them will run easily on vertical surfaces. If you have ever sprayed clear lacquer it is very similar… you need to wet-out the surface enough to flow and prevent orange peel. Have plenty of light and watch the surface from an angle and watch the 'wave' as you spray, this also prevents overlapping too much. For equipment I use Devilbiss "conversion" gravity feed guns, the "Finishline" model plenty good enough. Get a regulator/gauge at the gun because the slightest pressure variation can have quite an effect on WB finishes. I use the DeKupps disposable cup system, cleanup is a breeze but more important they will never drip because they are not vented and you can even spray sideways or even upside-down. BTW—just because it is WB does not mean that it is perfectly safe, wear a respirator !!! -- Dane, Fairview Pk, OH. The large print giveth and the small print taketh away... Tom Waits |
#12 posted 11-27-2009 06:41 AM |
I've sprayed Polycrlicis it sprays fine (if you know how to spray) I wipe the wood down with water ,let it dry and then lightly sand with 150 use a tack rag spray let dry 2 hours, a very quick sand with 180 and shoot again. If happy let it be if not let dry 2hours and use 180 once more. Depending on wood 2 coats usually works fine. -- http://artisticwoodstudio.com Custom furniture |
#13 posted 11-27-2009 03:06 PM |
I have tried to spray WB products, with some moderate success. I only do it now when there is onsite work to be done where the customer is opposed to the lacquer fumes. Thinning is very hard to accomplish correctly. The molecules that make up water borne finishes are thicker thus resulting in the need for a bigger tip. Too much thinning and the finish will fish eye on you. Raising the grain is not too big an issue with a knock down sanding after your first coat as usual. One big problem I do run into is the fact that the finish dries on the spray tip quickly. This can result in an improper fan pattern. You need to keep your spray tip clean at all times. Light coats are a must as the finish will run, especially when spraying vertical surfaces. One thing to keep in mind is that, unlike lacquers, which emulsify the undercoat and combine to make one thick layer, waterborne finishes add succesive seperate layers. I would recommend nothing less than 3 coats when using WB. Hope all the tips her help. I myself have choosen to stay in the stone age and stick with the lacquers. I know that at some point, the laws will require that everyone spray low VOC finishes. But until that happens, my thought is if it isn't broken, don't fix it. As in the case of cessna pilot, I too am a very satisfied ML Cambell customer. It is a very durable product that is extremely versatile. I do know that they have their own line of waterborne products on the market. My rep has tried to get me to try it but right now I just don't need to take the time with the learning curve. -- Chris ( firstname.lastname@example.com ) |

I've tried to spray several poly's. Didn't like the results to much fine sanding to finish. Started using wood lacquers like that finish the best dries fast, great results, with little sanding to finish. Sherman Williams has several different glosses. A little pricey but worth it. I think, but who I'm I. -- Marty Ohio |

We're quietly waiting for a hurricane/nor'easter to hit. I went out shopping this afternoon for my daughter's birthday presents and the stores were mobbed with people fearing the end of the world. I don't have to work for the next two days since my college and my elementary school have both preemptively closed for an emergency. I'm seeing these 2 days as a blessing- time just to sit at home and stitch (as long as our roof doesn't blow away!) I have a lot to get done in a very short time.
The storm looks scary and we visualize the worst case scenarios. We just have to trust that things will turn out ok. I feel very lucky right now that my family is all home together for once and we'll weather the storm.

Why is Community so important in PR and Social Media?
Social Media has so many different facets and uses that it's definitely hard to define. What does it always come back to? Community. So why is this? Why is it so important? How do the foundations of PR relate to community?
As PR professionals, we are constantly engaging with colleagues, clients and people of various industries. We have to be knowledgeable and respectful.
You engage with your community. You learn and ask questions from them. There is a foundation of trust built, and many mentors spawn from it. This definition became even more solidified when someone I consider a mentor, Beth Harte, was attacked through a blog in what I considered to be an unprofessional manner. This is a great example of community building to me. The post has been edited and the remark of Beth being 'clueless' taken down – but you can see those who respect Beth and know her well address the issue. I respect and applaud Rebecca for how she handled the issue afterward – she didn't wait days for it, but did so immediately, learned from it and will move on.
The thing is, we all have different opinions on things. Community isn't all about defending those we respect. If they are in the wrong, I bet many wouldn't come to their defense. However, we can present that we disagree in a manner that is constructive and not personally slandering someone else. That's what makes community great. The people I know and respect challenge me to think outside the box and look at a variety of viewpoints. They mentor me on subjects that are important to me. We interact and talk constantly about issues related to everything from PR to cupcakes.
So what do you think? Why is community important in social media?

Communities are great for defending folks like Beth Harte. I think one of the allures of social media for big brands and individuals is to foster a conversation. Where else can marketers get candid feedback or engage on a personal level? More importantly, through conversation comes insight and innovation.
August 18, 2009 8:05 am
Hey Mike – Thanks for the comment. I was thinking more along the lines of not defending people, per say – but that communities earn you respect. You build relationships, and in PR, it's what many of us do.
You're right, these convos spawn insight and innovation – but how does that further make community important?
August 18, 2009 8:24 am
Community is important not just so that you have a crowd of people behind you that will fight for you (though it is nice), it's because of WHY those people are willing to go to bat for you. It reflects on the nature of that person and the sort of value and knowledge we, the community, gain from them (in this case, Beth).
David Spinks had a post about 'expert vs. evangelist' yesterday, and my thought is that if your community is willing to put their reputation on the line and call someone that or defend them in anyway, then that speaks much louder than professing your own claim to be a thought-leader or someone that should be respected.
It obviously shows that Beth not only has the chops but the community that believes in her and the work she produces.
August 18, 2009 8:53 am
Networking and sharing is all about trusting.
A sense of community gives us the context in which we can figure out who we trust/respect and the reverse of that–and where we see ourselves fitting in along that spectrum.
When we build a network of people who's opinions we respect, we are using social media for it's highest purpose, truly connecting with people!
August 18, 2009 9:09 am
Creating a community allows you to put out fires before they start…which is exactly what Beth was able to effectively do. She called bullshit and the community that supports her reacted accordingly…but this wouldn't have happened had she not been engaging, interacting and communicating openly with her community about the process/incident.
August 18, 2009 9:29 am
Lauren, community is all important in my book…and not just because of what happened to me. Heck, that happens to organizations EVERY DAY. My point in the way I handled the situation was to prove AND show organizations a different way to handle it…and that was by tapping into my community.
As communications/marketing/PR professionals our first reaction is to become defensive and try to shut people down in an effort to protect our organizations. But there is much more at play in these situations (on- or off-line) and as professionals engaged in social media, we need to understand that so we know how to best handle it.
First and foremost, Rebecca and most SEOs are not in my community…they have their own established community. Second, the two communities (SEO & Marketing/PR/SM) don't necessarily agree on what social media (tools vs. concept) is and how it should be implemented or used.
That clarified, of course Rebecca wouldn't have agreed with what I was talking about on the panel…we have two completely different philosophies and I was an outsider in *their* community (this was a conference geared towards SEOs). But, that said, I don't appreciate slanderous comments or being misquoted (which have still not been corrected, BTW). Who would?
Of course, I don't agree with the light Rebecca presented me in, but then again from where I sit, she doesn't understand the value of social media, PR or marketing…and most likely, we'll never agree. From that perspective, sometimes it's just best to let it go versus trying to have a debate over philosophies & experience.
So what's the moral of the story here?
There is a possibility that multiple communities exist for an organization, they have different agendas, their philosophies on what's right/wrong might not line-up, and everyone has an opinion.
As a PR professional it's really important to understand and be involved with each community so that you have a sense of what's important to them, how they think, etc. Otherwise when there is a situation, you won't have all the details/insights needed to diffuse it in the best way possible.
Thanks Lauren!

In the end, as PR folks, isn't building a community the ultimate goal? Whether it be for our clients/organization or ourselves?

Should be – but not every PR professional understands that. At least IMO.
