Review: Edel E-Series Putters
Pros: The torque-free, weight-balanced design will free up the release of any stroke. Pixl technology provides golfers with mini sweet spots away from the center of the face; little homes away from home.
Cons: The putters start at $295, which doesn't include the cost of a fitting, and Edel's weight changing kit sells for an additional $60.
Who's it for? Edel E-Series putters are golfers who struggles with pushes, pulls and inconsistent contact. That means just about everyone. Those worred about cost should remember that a custom fit putter may save them money in the long run.
According to David Edel, founder and president of Edel Golf, 80 percent of golfers struggle with the transition of their putting stroke, creating too much tension in the hands. Translation? Most golfers aren't very consistent with their flat sticks.
That's why he engineered the new E-Series putters with a "torque-free" and "weight balanced" system to combat those issues. With Edel's design, the club face won't wobble open or closed relative to the player's natural path, he says, as the putter has a toe-up toe hang.
An easy way to measure the toe hang of a putter is to hold the shaft parallel to the ground and balance it on your finger roughly three-quarters of the way down toward face. A normal, anser-style putter has a toe that faces downward (between 3 o'clock and 6 o'clock) and face-balanced putters have a face that points skywards (toe at 3 o'clock).
The E-Series toe points straight toward the sky (12 o'clock), which Edel says will help golfers naturally release the putter face.
Edel carved out portions from the 304 Stainless Steel head, which began as a block of solid metal. He gutted most of the toe area and back portion from the sole and drilled holes in the back of the head. This put the mass of weight directly behind the face and in the heel.
The putters have heads that are on the heavy side, but due to their balanced design they do not feel any heavier. In fact, they actually have a lighter swing weight.
"If you took a similar putter with the same specs and the same head weight, the normal putter would have a swingweight of D6, while the toe up putter would be 6 swing weights lighter," Edel said. "It has a lighter swing weight, but it's not actually lighter."
The face insert utilizes Pixl technology. Each individual pixel is its own sweet spot that diffuses energy outwards, according to Edel, producing a trampoline effect using rebound energy.
Also, Edel's fitting system measures set up, alignment, lie angle, loft and length, among other specifications. Click to browse Edel fitting events or to find a custom Edel fitter near you. Edel also allows golfers to purchase the E-Series putters "off-the-rack" through its website. The putters start at $295, with additional charges for further customization.
The Review
For my review, I tested an E-2 E-Series model, which I was fit for at the PGA show in January 2014. Since receiving the putter, my lag-putting performance, and putting from 15 feet and in, have noticeably improved.
The balanced weight allows me to LET the club release instead of FORCING it to release. Therefore, the club head and face angle don't seem to waver during my stroke as much as with my previous gamers, so I feel connected with the putter throughout the stroke.
Also, the Pixl technology claims to help with distance control by reducing the impact of off-center strikes, and it delivers. As long as impact occurs somewhere on the insert, I suffered no distances losses on mis-hits.
Is this the most beautiful looking putter I've ever seen? No, it's not. But its design has helped marry the putter face to my stroke.
I tested the 365-gram putter with a 12-gram weight, making it heavier than the standard 320 or 330 gram putters I've used in the past, but again, it doesn't feel heavier. In that sense, I've found Edel's description of the putter having a "lighter swing weight" than its true mass to be accurate.
Although it is cut from a block of steel, the putter has enough visual design to be flattering. Cut out circular holes on the back of the club head, and sharp cut-outs on the bottom of the putter add imaginative artistry.
The Takeaway
Getting fit will be a smart move, but getting fit into an E-Series putter will allow you to not only have a club matched to your stroke and specs, but to take advantage of impressive engineering.

These putters are just not for me. They are the least solid feeling putters I have ever hit. They feel light, and impact with them is not at all satisfying. Off-center hits feel just awful–especially anything hit near the toe. I have tried several versions and the technology of the toe-up putter is just not something I see sticking around for long.
If I remember correctly, there was a "toe up" putter company many years ago back in the 80's or 90's that quickly went the way of the dinosaur–and for good reason….
Living in the Midwest with the closes fitting center nearly 250 plus miles away is a disappointing. I would love to try their product but Edel product penatation is very shallow. If their product is that good. Perhaps applying as much effort in reaching new customers as they do in product development, maybe I could have one of these custom putters in my bag.
I really like these edel putters and have a friend who has them i am 13 years old and have a 13 handicap do you think this would be a good purchase? right now i am gaming the new ping anser 5 and i really like it but i feel that a custom putter will be cool and permanent.
There is some talk about torque, balance, player's path, etc. For reviews like this, a video would be great to watch.
Wouldn't removing all that weight from the toe to make it "torque free" move the sweet spot significantly towards the heel?
Well, you do get a free Edel shag bag with a purchase of an e-series. Ask them about it.
I would try before you buy with this putter. If you're spending $300, you should also get a full fitting and customization of an Edel for $100 more; and see what fits.
I have a pixl putter in the garage with the metal pixl's. Face looks just like this one. Ping used to make something like this also

"The face insert utilizes Pixl technology. Each individual pixel is its own sweet spot that diffuses energy outwards, according to Edel, producing a trampoline effect using rebound energy."
"Comprised of 93 individual Pixls, or independent circular components, the PIXL insert turns mis-hits into gimmes by dramatically enhancing putter roll and performance when the golf ball is struck off center."
Have read about this Pixl insert multiple times now, still have no idea how or why it supposedly works. It does look cool.
Edel makes some gorgeous putters. This is not one of them
Certainly agree with the "Looks" comment. I have been testing this putter, and it's super science in my book! Form follows function. I hope nobody on my AM Tour is using this, because I'm lighting up the scorecard with this wand. It's Frankenstein for sure.

Over the past decade, it seems like there have been as many new putter companies as there have been drivers released in the past year (I think another one just released since I typed that sentence). While many of them have come up with ways to re-create or re-design the classic favorites of the past 40-plus years, there are a few companies that are pushing the boundaries of what a putter can be and how it can help make putting easier. And a company called Optic Z Putters has done just that.
I reviewed the company's Optic Z8 putter, which has a distinct batwing shape. It's one of three putters the company offers — its Z3 is more blade-like in shape, while its Z7 is more mallet-like — and each putter sells for $325.
According to the company, Z Optic putters take the two main parts of putting and making them easy to reproduce. And with every putt, Optic Z putters are said to help golfers set their hands and eyes in the same exact position for every putt. "This has been done!" you say? Well, let's find out if my experience with the Z8 was different.
The Look
When I first saw the Z8 putter with its Z-shaped hosel, I began to wonder, "What exactly is going on here?" It has a unique Z-neck that creates a "3D" effect when looking down over the ball at address. But when looking at the putter in any other view, it does look odd. It will take a little bit of time to get used to it, but like many putters that come out these days, after a while you simply get used to it and forget about it.
The putter is 100 percent milled, U.S.A. made, and has a deep "double" milled face pattern that is familiar to most people. It offers an incredibly soft feel that is part from the milling, but also from the Proprietary Power 51 alloy metal that is used. The sole of the Z8 has 8 degrees of roll to it. This means that it can effectively play with a lie angle anywhere from 67 to 75 degrees. The new Z-neck hosel also makes the putter face balanced as if it was a center-shafted putter. And finally, there are several thick alignment lines, both horizontal and vertical, to help aim.
The Z Revolution?
Once you set the putter down and see how everything lines up in a "3D" type of alignment, you get the point of the Z-neck. Instead of just giving one point of reference similar to other putters, the Z8 gives you three points of alignment.
You align the Z-neck bend with the toe of the putter, the heel and shaft together, and then make sure both are lined up together. Once you have this set, your hands and eyes will be in the correct position.
In addition to adding more reference points, the key difference with the Z8 is that it actually requires you to have forward press with your hands. The stated loft of 2.25 degrees is the loft with your hands in that forward-press position. The Z-neck is also supposed to eliminate the visual moment of impact of when the ball comes off the face of the putter. The theory is that it helps you relax more through the stroke by not seeing the point of impact, a similar theory to looking at the hole instead of the ball when putting.
Does it work?
I was skeptical of the putter when I first started using it, and it took me a little bit to get used to the 3D effect. After spending a good amount of time with it, I can say that it does what it is supposed to do. It really becomes a "point-and-shoot" kind of putting, and it makes the set up of putting incredibly easy. The ball rolls really well off the face, too, and the feel is incredibly soft. The alignment aids do a good job helping at address, and I'm someone who has moved away from alignment aids because I tend to aim them incorrectly.
The Optic Z8 putter performed the best for me on putts inside 10 feet. I struggled on longer putts, but it was more due to the weight of the putter. At 365 grams, it is much heavier compared to what I've been using, but I've always struggled with long-distance putting with heavier putters. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised with the performance. And the more I used it, the more comfortable I became and the more putts I made.
The Takeaway
If you struggle with consistency, especially at set up, this is one to try. It may take some time to get used to Optic Z putters, but most golfers should be able to adjust. These putters are well made, feel great and can truly help golfers in two areas that we know are important to putting.

Review: Directed Force Putters
Pros: Stroke stability and consistency are likely to improve with a proper fitting. The putters also double as training aids for stroke tempo.
Cons: The looks, overall feel and forced-forward-press grip will likely take getting used to.
Who's it for: Golfers seeking more stability in their stroke. If you don't get fit properly, however, the technology will not reach its maximum potential.
The Review
Often times, great inventions are made out of necessity — a solution to a problem. That's how Bill Presse, founder of Directed Force, developed his innovative putter technology. As a playing professional and teaching pro, he was frustrated by poor putting and needed a solution. Presse began building putters, and after "drilling holes in [putter] heads," he figured out he could make a putter that stayed square to the putter path. His buddies were disbelievers, so he built "the revealer" to prove the technology — another invention born because of a problem.
Unlike most putters, which are either face-balanced or have what's called "toe hang," Directed Force putters ($399.95) are lie-angle balanced. That means the putter face stays straight (or perpendicular) to the putter path throughout the stroke, which is ideal in theory. And serious golfers across the globe have spent countless hours trying to improve their ability to keep their putter face perpendicular to their path during their stroke.
Can this new putter technology provide a shortcut? Watch the video below to see it in action.
Presse's technology is effective for golfers because of the importance of the face angle at impact. According to findings from SAM PuttLab, the face angle at impact determines 83 percent of a putt's initial starting direction, and is thus about 5 times more important than putter path.
Here's how they're made.
The company first forges the putter heads from 6061 aircraft aluminum, then CNC-milled to the proper shape and finishes them with a type-3 anodized coating. It's important to note that lie-angle balance is not achieved because of the outlandish head shape, which is the immediate assumption, but rather due to the location of the shaft relative to the center of gravity (CG) in the club head. To dial in the specific lie angle of each putter — which are weighted differently depending on a putter's lie angle, length and grip — weights are installed on each side of the putter face (toe and heel), as well as on the sole. It's those weights, in conjunction the putter's shaft position, that give the putters their "lie-angle balance."
Not only does the head shape look, well… weird, but the grip is unconventional, too. But there's science behind it, as well. Watch the video below to learn more about the PressGrip, developed by Presse, and how it works.
The putter shaft runs through the PressGrip at 3 degrees, instead of straight in (or 0), placing the putter in a forward-press position without the golfer's hands moving forward of center. This allows the golfer to choke down or up on the grip without losing lie angle, and since the grip is made with a constant taper, changing hand positions doesn't affect the feel of the grip.
The PressGrip comes in two sizes: Mid-Size (1.250 inches) and Large (1.375 inches), and can be purchased separately for $29.95.
Directed Force's putter technologies are not dependent on the PressGrip, however, so the putters can be made with the aftermarket grip of your choice. Presse says the grip size and weight affect weighting in the head, so make sure to factor that in during your purchase.
Does it work?
First off, the grip feels very different at first, even for someone who forward presses their putter. It's the first thing most golfers comment on when they try it for the first time. And while it can feel strange, all it takes is a few strokes to get used to it. After that, you'll be disappointed going back to a normal putter grip — at least I was.
The second thing someone will comment on is the head shape… obviously. It's a lot of putter head to look at, and the shape is far from conventional. That being said, different doesn't mean bad in this case.
This putter has one of those, you're-just-along-for-the-ride feels, and seems to swing itself. For yippers or those who struggle with short putts, those are great words to hear. And due to the displacement of so much weight well behind the face, it has a very high moment of inertia (MOI). That means it hardly matters whether you hit it off the toe, heel or center of the face. The putter allows you — and I have confirmed this — to hit 30+ foot putts dead off the heel or toe without much, or any, noticeable affect on distance or direction.
Because of its reliance on lie-angle balance, the technology won't be as beneficial if the putter isn't fit to your lie angle. So make sure — if you're seriously interested in buying a Directed Force putter — you get fit by a Directed Force Fitter, or do a Remote Fitting with Directed Force, which cost $30 but comes with a $30 discount code if you choose to purchase the putter.
The Numbers
So how do Directed Putters perform? We tested them with two golfers on SAM PuttLab, each of which was fit remotely for Directed Force putters several weeks before the test.
- Tester 1 was me, a former college golfer and now a 1-handicap, weekend player. I've used the same off-the-rack Anser-style putter for the last two years, and only practiced with a Directed Force for about 30 minutes at the PGA Merchandise, which is where we discovered the putters.
- Tester 2 was GolfWRX's Zak Kozuchowski, our editor and resident professional golfer. He was recently fit for his gamer, an 8802-style, in the fall by another putter company.
Tester 1: Gamer
Tester 1: Directed Force
Tester 1 Data Analysis
- Consistency improved on average with Directed Force putter (98 percent versus 90 percent with gamer).
- Face rotated less with Directed Force putter on average.
- Putter path was more neutral with Directed Force putter on average (3.5 degrees left versus 3.9 degrees with gamer).
- Putter path improved with Directed Force putter (56 percent consistency versus 52 percent consistency with the gamer).
- Rise angle was higher with gamer putter (1.6 degrees up versus 1.0 up with the Directed Force).
Tester 2: Gamer
Tester 2: Directed Force
Tester 2 Data Analysis
- Putter path consistency improved with Directed Force on average (95 percent versus 87 percent with gamer).
- Putter path was 2.3 degrees left with the Directed Force on average, but much more neutral with gamer putter (only 0.5 degrees left).
- Rise angle was less downward with the gamer (1.1 degrees down) versus 2.6 degrees down with the Directed Force putter on average.
- Face rotation consistency was better with the gamer on average (93 percent versus 89 percent with the Directed Force)
- The face rotated less throughout the stroke with the Directed Force on average, and was less closed at impact on average (0.6 degrees versus 1 degree).
The numbers show a rise in consistency for both golfers when using the Directed Force putter compared to gamers. Tester 1, who had little experience with the putter, struggled with alignment, and both players hit more "down" on their putts with the Directed Force, most likely due to the forced forward press.
Therefore, it appears that the Directed Force putters can immediately add consistency to a golfer's stroke, although it is likely that it will take time for golfers to truly optimize their putting with them.
The Takeaway
If you're going to try a Directed Force putter, make sure you get fit for it. It's designed to work with your specific lie angle, and isn't going to be as effective as it could be if it's more than a few degrees off.
The oversize putter head's feel and the grip could be a shock to many golfer's systems, but after just a few putts most golfers will find that they're no longer even noticing the odd-shaped putter head. And while the setup and stroke that the putter encourages may take some time to master, the benefits are fruitful.
Based on our testing, there's no question golfers can improve the consistency of their strokes with a Directed Force putter, which is a rare thing to be able to say.

Review: Toulon Design Putters
Pros: Toulon putters offer clean, classic lines. Exceptional feel and matching sound. Adjustable sole plates allow for custom head weights.
Cons: Only available in RH and polished stainless-steel (for now). Prices start at $399.
Who they're for: All golfers, especially those true enthusiasts, collectors, and competitive players looking for something new and unique.
The Review
For this review, I tested a Toulon San Diego putter. The specs are listed below.
- Weight: 352 grams (head)
- Material: 303 stainless steel
- Finish: Tour Satin Mist
- Face Milling: Deep Diamond
- Stock Lie/Loft: 71 degrees/3 degrees
- Stock Length Options: 33-35 inches
- Stock Grip: Lamkin Deep Etch (also available in charcoal or gray add $10; and SuperStroke Pistol GT Tour or Mid-Slim 2.0 add $20)
Along with the five different models (San Diego, Madison, San Francisco, Rochester and Memphis), Toulon Design Putters are also available in two counter-balanced options: Moderate Release (MR) and Aggressive Release (AR) for $459 and $499, respectively.
From a young age, I have primarily sifted my way through putters designed around the modern blade with the L-shaped hosel. Whether it be a Ping Anser 2 or Scotty Cameron Newport 1995 First Run, some of those putters have hung around, while most have not with a destination unknown. Call me stuck in the past, but apart from occasionally fiddling with the latest and greatest mallet, I have remained loyal to this classic style.
Given that tendency, I was understandably thrilled and equally excited to review the "San Diego" from a new putter company known as Toulon Design. Incidentally, my San Diego was built with a 345-gram putter head and additional 7-gram aluminum plate. The loft was 3 degrees, the lie was 70 degrees and without a grip it measured 34 inches. The overall weight was 541 grams and the swing weight was D4.
Started in 2015, but currently launching its initial stable of putters (Madison, San Diego, Rochester, San Francisco, and Memphis) over the coming months, Toulon Design has set it sights on making the best performance putters in the world, with looks to match that lofty goal. The company is based in Vista, California, and it was started by Sean Toulon, formerly involved with TaylorMade Golf for 16 years in product creation and design, and his sons, Tony and Joe. The founding principles of the company being mentorship, collaboration, and making putters with the serious golf enthusiast in mind — but all players welcome.
Upon cracking the box open to take my first look at the San Diego built for me, it was clear that Toulon Design has taken the time to painstakingly build something that any equipment lover should try. If you are the type of person who says, "I'm a golfer" when asked at a cocktail party what do you like to do in your free time, then seriously check out Toulon Design ASAP. The technology behind this initial line of putters, including the San Diego, is simply the icing on the cake. A review can not honestly do justice to what Toulon Design is attempting to create, which is a company satisfied with being no less than extraordinary.
Classic Look
Beautiful and timeless in its clean lines, the San Diego pushed all the rights buttons for me from the outset. It has a dark charcoal alignment mark that somehow seemed superior both cosmetically and technically in my eyes, especially given the satin mist finish of the putter. While Toulon is opening its "Garage" in May 2016 in an effort to provide its customers with the full "Tour experience" and a variety of options (not readily available for most putters), I chose the stock Lamkin Deep Etch emblazoned with the Toulon Design logo.
Before I even hit a putt, it felt like this putter was destined to make its way into my golf bag. What's truly difficult to communicate in words is the attention detail that was evident in closely examining the San Diego. Toulon Design utilizes what is known as vacuum brazing (through the "Big Green Egg" above) to fuse the putter head and hosel in a manner that makes it feel and look as if those parts of the putter were always one in the same. Everything just simply felt and looked right.
Matching Sound and Feel
Possibly the most important aspect of the technology behind Toulon Design putters (including, the San Diego) is the concept of matching sound and feel with launch conditions of your golf ball. It may seem strange, but this concept is effectively untapped in the industry at present. As Toulon explains, "Sound and feel are totally intertwined. And those two things create the expectation of the distance the ball will travel for the golfer." In other words, when sound and feel are successfully synced, it is easier to correlate and control distance in putting; not surprisingly, when things are off, controlling distance becomes much more difficult. Can you say 3-putt?
I've been playing golf for 30 years and I honestly can't recall a putter that felt or sounded better. Again, words can't properly describe it, but for me, uphill putts are particularly revealing and my expectation for putts hit with the San Diego closely aligned with my actual result. When I hit any putt (though, in particular, an uphill putt of 20+ feet), the feedback was immediate and in that regard I was able to quickly adjust to the speed and conditions of the greens on which I was playing or practicing. Put differently, I didn't feel as if I was guessing from putt to putt (which happens) and instead, I was able to trust what I was hearing and feeling.
Diamonds in the Rough
The face milling pattern is also unique to Toulon Design, and the product of not only the creativity of its design team, but its relentless pursuit of something better. The goal was to achieve a crisp, yet soft feel as the result of a putter face that would create gentle (rather than aggressive) overspin on the ball at the point of impact. Inspired by the tread pattern on car tires, Toulon Design putters use what is referred to as a "Deep Diamond Mill" pattern. Within each diamond is a separate groove (or "eyelid," as I refer to it), which minimizes the opportunity for your golf ball to climb up the putter face upon contact. The result being, to date, a reasonable, yet appropriate amount of forward roll immediately after impact.
My experience is that everything matches up almost perfectly. And rather than a ball coming hot off the face with an almost uncontrollable amount of forward roll, Toulon Design putters (and in my case, the San Diego) produce roll that allows for consistency, especially from beyond 20 feet.
Performance on the Green
It is certainly 9-plus out of 10 for me. The technology, coupled with the classic look and attention to detail, which is evident, make the San Diego an easy putter to love. What makes it easy to use is the feedback it provides by eliminating much of the confusion (that I've had with other putters) when hitting putts expecting a certain result and not getting it. The by-product of which is not being able to harmonize the feel and sound in order to gain consistency. In short, I have yet to feel as if I needed to guess with this putter. No, I do not make everything, but I actually feel like I have a very good chance on almost every putt I hit because I am confident that my stroke will match with the speed and distance I need to hit any given putt. And this is especially true from inside 10 feet.
Overall, the San Diego is worth every penny and Toulon Design is committed to making putters for golfers and golf enthusiasts that will make a difference in your game. There's no question its an investment, but one you won't regret.
I have yet to take advantage of the adjustable weighted sole plates (I absolutely plan on it), but in the near future (May 2016) you will be able to purchase from Toulon's Garage the 7-gram aluminum plate, 20-gram stainless steel plate and 40-gram tungsten plate, as they are interchangeable in every Toulon Design putter. In doing so, you will easily be able to vary the putter head weight from 352 grams to 365 grams to 385 grams.
Don't overlook Toulon Design when looking for a new putter in 2016, and with five models to choose from there's probably one for you.

Most of the actual hands-on stuff I'm doing is outside of class, on the UD Aerodesign Team, where I'm part of "Team X," which is a group of veteran members who are working on sizing the plane and laying out its overall configuration -- sort of a combination steering committee and senior design group. So far we've mostly been working on laying down our basic configuration and sizing our competition plane from the constraint diagram we've constructed from the AIAA "Design, Build, Fly!" competition rules and our own testing. (A few weeks back, we got to test hand-launch speeds in an Air Force motion-capture facility, which was a really fun afternoon, and got us some great data for the team.) It has been a challenging process, involving a lot of learning very rapidly. When we touch on this material in Intro to Flight, I often discover a great deal of more in-depth material that I simply never had the chance to learn as Team X dealt with it. The payoff has been that I feel like my abilities as an aeronautical engineer are actually being tested, not just developed, by the class. Team X's job is not yet done, and the job of the Aerodesign Team won't be done until the plane flies at competition in April in Tuscon, Arizona, but I am very much enjoying the feeling of being closer to where the action is than I felt I was last year.
Additionally, I'm in charge of the Connections Group, which is coordinating all the connections between the parts of the plane (see diagram below) as well as the process of assembling the plane. This is important because the competition requires that the plane fit into the dimensions of a standard carry-on suitcase (total of 45 dimensional inches) while also carrying some payload. To do that, we simply need more wing area than could fit into the box with no assembly. Last year, our team had two failed flight attempts due to issues with assembly -- one due to the results of a poor design of wiring runs in the wing that pulled out during the five-minute timed assembly and couldn't be fixed, and the other due to a disconnect along an inaccessible internal connection inside the tail boom that was not detected until the elevator failed to respond on the runway. This was largely because there had been no consideration at all of assembly and checkout procedures before we arrived at competition and neither was there much thought given to structural or electrical connections prior to their construction. (Several key decisions were made in the wind tunnel by a single now-departed member on the day that they were implemented with no further review.)
The Connection Group was formed this year specifically to make sure that this whole issue of attachments and the assembly method was fully examined at the design stage rather than the construction or operational stages. The general idea is to examine all of the connections between components that will be detached in the box and ensure that designs are fully worked out, including both structural and electrical (that is, servo wiring) considerations. Right now we're looking at five different type of connections, which are shown on the diagram below.
|Connection Location Diagram Showing Five Types of Connections
Of these, the tail connections are giving the most trouble. The landing gear design is mostly modifying last year's connections to be able to be assembled more quickly and the wing design is mostly an improved form of the final design of the wing connection used last year with the issues that impeded assembly at competition reworked or eliminated. The tail boom connections are proving more troublesome because they are subjected to bending moments in both pitch and roll, as well as twisting moments along the axis of the boom and possible axial normal forces. We're dealing with these well at the tail's connection to the fuselage. We've developed three or so conceptual designs that should be flexible enough so that one will work however the boom and tail end up being sized. The outboard connection is proving more troublesome; so far, it requires a lot more weight and complexity than the fuselage connection to the tail. I've been exploring whether this outboard connection can be eliminated while keeping the macro design of the plane within the competition constraints, but I've so far been having little luck.
This whole connections issue has been interesting for me because I was part of the assembly crew last year. Thus, I am not only involved with the design of this section this year and am seeing how decisions and assumptions made at that overall conceptual effort can effect individual systems, but I also have hands-on experience with operations of the part of the plane I'm designing. Thus, I can understand how that experience can vary depending on the quality of the design work. On the whole, I feel like I'm understanding the process more, and feeling even more like an engineer-in-progress instead of just an engineering student.
On a closing note about connections, I thought I'd link to James Burke's series Connections (the first video of which can be found on the web here). This is an amazing television series about the interconnectedness of life, and how developments and principles originally researched for one use can end up having huge effects when used in different ways combined with other things in entirely different disciplines. Every episodes starts with one element, and moves along a chain to an endpoint you wouldn't have guessed at the start. While this is interesting, the real stand-out moment came when I understood that these connection chains branch and interconnect, and how the spread of new thoughts and ideas across large and vibrant societies can spark huge numbers of cross-fertilized ideas that never could have been conceived by a smaller or more restricted group. It's fascinating food for thought, especially for an engineer, and an argument for that old notion of the "Renaissance man." Who knows when a working knowledge of, say, gardening, painting, or music could lead to seeing a new solution to an old problem or seeing a new problem that can be solved with an old solution? That broad knowledge can come in handy. Of course, I could be telling myself this only to justify in my mind all those hours I spent on the Brebeuf Jesuit Brain Game team. Who knows?

Univision heavily fined for lack of children's programming
Saturday, February 24, 2007
The commission has decided to impose the heavy fine — disclosed by Kevin J. Martin, the chairman of the commission, in an interview — as a tough rebuke to Univision for claiming to meet its obligations to broadcast educational children's programs by showing the Latino soap opera "Complices al Rescate" ("Friends to the Rescue") and other so-called telenovelas.While there is reasonable concern about educational programming on television, is this really a justice issue? The Office of Communication, Inc. (OC Inc. for short) is the media advocacy arm of the United Church of Christ - a legacy of the UCC's fight in the civil rights era when media options were limited to a few television and radio stations where the programming didn't reflect the ethnic diversity of the audience, primarily in the south. While the issue of children's educational programming is suitable for the FCC to investigate, is it really a justice issue on par with civil rights? According to Rev. Robert Chase, the UCC's communications director, supporting children's educational programming is actually a mandated by the Gospels:
The penalty, part of a settlement that will allow the company to proceed with a buyout deal, is nearly three times the previous record fine of $9 million, imposed against Qwest Communications for violating telephone interconnection rules in 2004, and significantly more than the largest indecency penalty, $3.5 million, levied against Viacom that same year for remarks by Howard Stern and other so-called shock jocks on the radio.
"The United Church of Christ has a long history of advocacy on behalf of children," Chase said. "Media has such a profound impact upon society, especially upon the youngest and most vulnerable among us. It is, therefore, consistent with the Gospel mandate to care for 'the least of these' that our concern extends into the broadcast arena."I'm just thankful I didn't have a mouthful of coffee while reading that.
Chase has a knack for twisting the most obscure communication issues into justice issues. Back in 2003, according to the Washington Post, the UCC's Office of Communication was part of an unethical campaign to block WorldCom's licenses it used for its long distance and Internet services. Bob Chase and team were working with lobbyists who were paid by WorldCom competitors to sink the company. The "grass roots" campaign fizzled as it became obvious that the initiative was generated by WorldCom competitors - with the help of the UCC.

Report: Cowboys DE Randy Gregory to practice Wednesday while appealing suspension
When it was reported that Cowboys defensive end Randy Gregory was facing an additional year-long suspension for another violation of the league's substance abuse policy, it was assumed that he would have no impact this season. Well, that may not be the case.
According to the Dallas Morning News and multiple reports, Gregory is eligible to return to practice Wednesday while he appeals his latest suspension.
With his appeal seemingly under review, Gregory is allowed to practice with the team. That doesn't mean he can play this week, of course. He's still serving a 14-game ban, which was the combination of a four- and 10-game suspension.
If Gregory wins his appeal, or if the league fails to rule on it this season, he'd be able to return in Week 16 when his suspension is over. This would be a huge lift for a Cowboys team desperate for help on the defensive line.
Gregory checked himself into a rehab facility this summer but reportedly missed a drug test in that span. That's the reason behind his looming year-long suspension, which is the one currently being appealed.
Source: DE Randy Gregory will resume practicing with the team Wednesday as an impending suspension remains under appeal.

Also, see the opportunities that enable you to help others in their walk as well. This is the invitation for you to get closer to God and one another, by spending time together.
We are called to share God's love with one another – at all times and in all ways. Make time to be in ministry together, to pray, to participate, and invite others along. Faith is intended to be deeply personal, but never private. We do not always know what road is next, but I promise you it is ALWAYS better with God. Continue to grow in your faith by sharing in ministry together – worshipping together, gathering together, spending time with the Word of God. I continue to pray for you each day as I undergo treatment. I pray not only for your personal walk, but also in gratitude for the way God continues to lead us and Mount Olivet Church.
We are blessed to have a strong leadership team of pastors, staff , and lay leaders. Thank you for sharing your God-given gifts and talents and love not only for our church, but for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I am excited about our fall programming line-up and all the opportunities we have to live out our faith each day. Never forget thegift that is today. Thanks be to God!
Blessings,Pastor Hogenson, Senior Pastor

-Sharing an article published by School Library Journal-
Librarians Sound Off: Not a Lack of Latino Lit for Kids, but a Lack of Awareness
And as the United States population continues to grow more diverse—with Latinos being the most represented minority at 16%, according to the 2010 census—librarians continue to be instrumental in meeting the needs of the communities they serve. Many develop and create their collections according to their changing neighborhoods.
"How wise are librarians that they want to see all groups represented in their collections? They go the extra mile and work with the small presses," REFORMA past president Loida Garcia-Febo tells SLJ.
Garcia-Febo, for example, actively encourages presses large and small to produce stories about Hispanics that portray "the true Latino experience," in every skin color, economic status, and tradition. "And, from personal experience," she tells SLJ, "I can say that publishers actually listen."
And within ALA, librarians of any background should strive to become active in the many ethnic library associations, such as Asian Pacific American, American Indian, and the Black Caucus, Garcia-Febo says. "This is a complex issue and we must continue to bring it to the table, not only among ourselves, but also everyone in our community: nonprofit organizations, celebrities, and government agencies," she says, adding that the more people involved in the cause, the more successful it could be.

After a two day workshop in acting (introduction to Improv) and three days of set modeling and we started on our next animation assignment: The acting without dialogue.
Under guidence from Michael Berenstein (Pixar, PDI, Academy of Arts), we were introduced to a new economic way of animating, which was really great.
Below is a progress video. I went into splines a lot faster than usual.
Animation progress - acting shot from Christoffer Andersen on Vimeo.
After animation (two weeks), we had a two day workshop in lighting and rendering. That was a lot of fun! Amazing how much you can give the shot with lighting.

If you saw my WOYWW post yesterday you would have seen that I was in the midst of making a card and had bits and pieces all over my desk and that I mentioned that it was possible that the whole thing could very well end up in the rubbish bin? Well I am happy to say that despite a massive heat embossing disaster the card survived and I have it here to show you now.
After enjoying my gold embossing attempt last week I thought I would give it another go with some American Crafts "Zing" embossing powder that I have been hoarding in my drawer for some time.... well it has been put back safely in the drawer never to surface again! It is silver embossing powder with glitter through it, but instead of the result being nice and luxurious, it was thin and flat and uneven. Terrible. I did keep the sentiment panel that I embossed so you can see that further down the post...
Oh - and a little warning... I went a tad photo mad because the card has a number of opening bits so I wanted to make sure I had a pic of each of them.
So here is the front...the papers are Bo Bunny Midnight Frost. I have little Edwin sitting on his little gate panel with his pressie. The edge is punched with a MS border punch "Swirling Lace".
And here is the front panel with the gate section opened and a little close up of Edwin. Its a little hard to see in the photo on the left, but I've cut a large snowflake frmo acetate on the Cricut and covered it with glitter. It is really sparkly IRL. The trees are Winter Forrest from the Santa 2008 collection. They've also been given a large dose of glitter :)
This is the inside with the top flap up. I've used Tilda with Christmas Stockings from the Winter 2008 collection. The swirls on the paper have been glittered and there is another acetate snowflake behind Tilda.
Some challenges for this card are....
7 Kids Collect Fund - Winter Wonderland
All That Scraps Magnolia Challenge - Christmas
A Spoon Full of Sugar - Christmas Card
Crafts and Me Challenges - Moody Blues
Crazy for Challenges - the Sketch (the tree panel)

Welcome to bandit country
Nice going lads."
This was a facebook comment from a couple of days ago that generated no less than 105 comments. Some of support, but most of which boiled down to; "For crissake, can you not take a joke?" Yesterday on Joe Duffy's liveline this exact topic was discussed within earshot of the nation in what must have been one of the most bizarre radio programmes that I've ever heard in my life.
The beginning of the programme felt like an ambush, the ex-miniature of d'fence had voiced support of this song, and his support was being interpreted as a shameless bit of electioneering. 'Angry caller' was there to tell us what a disgrace it was that a politician could support the glamourisation of drug abuse. There was two audio sections that they had clearly lined up before the programme; one was the offending line: 'A bag of Yolks' and the other was from the Rubberbandits slagging Willie O'Dea (the third member of the band is known as Willie O'D.J.).
Now it maybe just me, but it honestly felt like a set-up. Here we have a member of an extremely unpopular political party supporting something that refers to drugs and contains swearing: Lets get'm lads!
Unfortunately, for the ambush, the miniature pointed out that he had been mercilessly lampooned by the lads himself before they got a chance to play the audio clip, and even quoted the best line; "I swear on my 'tache,- it's very good hash!"
Also unfortunate, in terms of the ambush, the 'Angry Caller' became less and less articulate, actually referring at one point to the 'usage of druggage'. Then Joe's attack was somewhat rescued by an incensed woman who worked with families devastated by narcotics and didn't find anything amusing about the damage they cause.
Finally they had Willie on the ropes; his comeback "You're obviously from another political party" back-fired horrendously when it became clear that lady caller was a Fianna Fail stalwart who had actually been a Feena Foyle mayor of Dublin.
Cue embarrassing pause.
You'd imagine nobody was getting up from that but Willie was rescued by a bandit.
'Blindboy' of the Rubberbandits was the next caller, to Duffy's chagrin, he stayed 'in character' and maintained his comedy accent. A stroke of genius, it took only a minute before it was clear that the 'Joke-voice' was the most articulate and intelligent one on the air.
Willie came out of it as the champion of humour and good sense and the Rubberbandits increased their likelihood for a Christmas number one by a few thousand sales; Duffy came out of it looking exactly like what he is:
Does Limerick really need some 'comedy-knacks' reinforcing the stereotype set up by Primetime et al? Personally, I think it helps. Because articulate, intelligent and funny are not what people associate with Limerick, and they should do.
Truth be told, the rubberbandits have never really floated my boat, but this single is catchy, and hilariously bad taste. I really hope it is number one for Christmas;if that happens it will not only be good for this town; it might just remind us all why we live in this country in the first place.

Ah, yes, the country that chose Dustin the Turkey for Eurovision shows once agin that its always up for an entertaining sneer.ReplyDelete
I get the humour, some of it makes me laugh, the plastic bag masks are inspired, but all in all, its not for me, it puts me in mind of a modern day middle class minstrel show, 'lets pick a minority group that scares the bejaysus out of us and mock them to make ourselves feel better in ourselves for being better than them'.
'I'm awfully glad I'm a Beta, because I don't work so hard. And then we are much better than the Gammas and Deltas. Gammas are stupid. They all wear green, and Delta children wear khaki. Oh no, I don't want to play with Delta children... I'm so glad I'm a Beta."
Then, thats the thing with Minstrel shows, they were an ever-so popular display of vulgar self-serving bigotry but they were also bloody entertaining with some real musical and comedic talent... then again i'm also told that Leni Riefenstahl was a talented filmmaker but i won't be renting Triumph of the Will anytime soon.
But, what i really find in bad taste with the Rubberbandit-mania is this over the top partizanship of their cause by the Irish media, but, thats part of the game RTE and the Irish media looks after its own... and, fair play to the boys though they worked hard to get there but now they finally can get a whiff of what life is like inside the golden circle of Irish 'celebrity', lets hope they manage to get out intact with some integrity left or a barrow load of luchre.
What an excellent response, thank you testy. The analogies of the Minstrel show,and the Brave New World are interesting, well put, and you make a valid point. I have felt in the past that the Rubberbandit 'targets' were easy ones; but the facebook comment, and the Liveline show pertained specifically to the 'image of Limerick' being tarnished as a result of their success. I don't think it is, (anymore than Dustin ruined the reputation of builders from Sallynogga').ReplyDelete
Thanks again for your comment.
Also wasn't the final 'Jim'll fix-it badge' scene in Starwars based on a scene from 'Triumph of Will'?I think I remember reading that somewhere.
I'd love to know what minority Testy has in mind. Maybe you could ask him to define who they are.ReplyDelete
Everybody knows that folks in Limerick are quick on the trigger... when it comes to defending the city's 'reputation'.ReplyDelete
By way of an analology,
My old mother used to claim, maybe she still does, that it was important to always wear clean fresh underwear everyday.
'If you were killed tomorrow wearing an old pair of jocks', she would declaim, 'i would'nt claim the body at the morgue'.
Now, it might seem strange that the scandal of the possible trace of urinary tarnish on the otherwise pristine primark underpants would take precedence over the tragedy of a child's untimely demise, but, ultimately, no, what really matters is that the neighbours know that you took the time to change into fresh y-fronts that very morning. The airing of dirty smalls in public is apparently the very apogee of shame.
And so it is with Limerick's reputation, there are folks there who shudder to think that the city's skidmarked apparel should never be acknowledged. Thats my city they'd claim, 'but, only from the belly up'.
Aye, the Bandits have flown the city's pants at half mast and of course the parsimonious minnies will mutter of impropriety but what are the bandits showing us but what we aleady know that Limerick, like every other town and city, has its shitty side.
(And yes, i do believe you're right about that Star Wars sequence.)
Testy, you put words together purdier than a twenty-dollar-whore!ReplyDelete
