Cranford, NJ — March 22nd, 2018
Local nerd Joe O'Brien was missing for several hours yesterday afternoon during an attempt to deliver bottle caps in a blizzard, police reported Wednesday. The nerd, who had only recently moved to Cranford, NJ after several years of geeking out in Astoria, Queens, was reached for comment late Wednesday night as he lie in Springfield Regional Hospital recovering from hypothermia. "I had to get those caps in the mail," O'Brien stammered through blue lips, "the Season 2 release had just come in and…and…" he wasn't able to finish the sentence before body temperature alarms screamed throughout the small room and the attending physician leaped into action.
O'Brien was referring to the release of Season 2 of the Glass Cannon Network's collectible bottle caps. Apparently, the Network recently ordered an entirely new slate of bottle caps with artwork that wasn't seen on any of the caps in 2017. Mailing these new booster packs to subscribers to The Glass Cannon Patreon at the $15 tier and up was apparently worth a human life. "You have to understand," the hopeless nerd mumbled through an oxygen mask after being revived, "this season is incredible. There's an epic Razzmatazz, a Raiders of the Lost Continent one, and even a special, silver, limited edition release of Jason Bulmahn's Pathfinder Playtest manuscript cover as captured by a Grant Berger photograph. I couldn't simply leave them in stock for another day because of a little SNOW!"
The "snow" to which the geek with more board games for adults than books for his child was referring to was the fourth Nor'Easter to slam the Northeast in the month of March. Visibility was so terrible that one intoxicated passerby described the post office as "under at least 9 feet of snow…or maybe that was just the hill behind my house…I'm not sure where the post office is, I use the internet." O'Brien said a tearful goodbye to his wife and 20 month-old daughter as he hefted over 80 packages onto his back and disappeared into the raging storm in the direction of the mailbox. "We didn't know if we'd see him again," his wife said Thursday, "I thought maybe I could use the closet space his board games take up for things like clothing for our child, but the cops ended up finding him."
The police found O'Brien in a snowdrift outside of a Domino's pizza, unconscious and dying, clutching one package in his hand. They were unable to remove the package from his frozen death-grip until they stabilized him. "Please," he choked just before being intubated, "be careful, there's a legendary Della Narn in there that's never been seen." Once he fully regained consciousness and was able to speak, O'Brien asked frantically after the other 79 packages that he put into what he thought was a mailbox. "The sleet had started then and it was like frozen desert sand scratching my corneas with every step. I couldn't see anything," he raved,"The mailbox was considered to have total concealment from me!" The doctors had a hard time understanding what they called his "nerd-speak."
With time, O'Brien's vitals returned to normal and he was reassured early Thursday morning that his packages did indeed get processed by the USPS. Relief evident on his face, he sank back into the chair and smiled, "Any day now they'll start getting a brand new set…it was…it was worth it." When asked if the shipment of the bottle caps had to happen at the height of the storm, the attending physician replied, "We try to understand the mind of the nerd and not just dismiss these crazy, alien thoughts without taking time for serious consideration. That said, is an uncommon Matthew Capodicasa cap really worth dying for? I don't know. I don't know." She wrapped up by getting to the heart of the matter: O'Brien's medical condition. "Either way," she said, "the man acted in a way that could have been harmful to himself or others. We're keeping him another few days for further mental evaluation. His wife happily signed the waiver."

ok so a lot of producers are buzzing about tracklib for cheap sample clearances.. its not posted on their website nor has any one who interviewed them had the where with all to ask how this service works for beat leasing so i contacted them myself and asked. what i was told both last april and last month is that after a producer already pays the sample clearance fee and leases the beat,every artist who leases the beat also has to pay the sample clearance and give up a percentage of their royalties to tracklib. this ads a hidden price tag to all your beats using a tracklib sample if your using class C samples this may double or triple what your beats actually cost but if you use a class B or A now add $500 and $2500 respectfully imagine you just payed $25 for a beat that has a hidden $2500 fee plus lose and additional 25% of your royalties.

- Description
The Wesco 272660 CPI Series pallet truck is made of steel, has a pump handle and polyurethane wheels, and is suitable for lifting and transporting pallets. Steel resists wear and corrosion. The loop-shaped pump handle can be used to jack up the forks and maneuver the pallet truck. The handle is rubber-coated for grip. A trigger on the handle releases and lowers the forks. Nose wheels and the forks' tapered ends facilitate loading. The polyurethane wheels won't puncture or go flat and are resistant to impact and wear. Push rods allow the height of each fork to be adjusted in case of an imbalance. The pallet truck has an overload bypass valve for safety. This pallet truck has a load capacity of 5,500 lb., weighs 210 lb., and measures 48-1/4 x 27 x 48 inches overall (H x W x L). (H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; L is length, the horizontal distance from front to back.) It has a service range of 2.9 to 7.25 inches high.
Pallet trucks, also known as pallet jacks, skid jacks, and pump trucks, are used to lift and transport pallets or skids of goods. Pallet trucks can include a swivel pump handle, a squeeze trigger, two forks, and wheels for maneuverability, and typically contain a hydraulic cylinder or a battery-powered motor to raise and lower the forks. Some pallet trucks have an adjustable push rod on the bottom of each fork, allowing the user to modify the height. Pallet trucks can be used in warehouses, storerooms, shipping facilities, and a variety of industrial environments.
Wesco manufactures material handling equipment. The company, founded in 1948, is headquartered in North Wales, PA.

Jason Halvorsen
Captain Jason's passion for travel began at a very young age. Before he started kindergarten Jason had visited over 30 of the US states with his parents. The family settled in Fort Lauderdale when he turned 5 which is where another passion began, one for the ocean within the maritime community. Through Jason's high school education he attended Marine Tech School studies and managed to complete a Marine Mechanics Degree whilst juggling his regular studies. Jason was working on yachts by 16, and earned his first Captains license at 19. Jason started his career on commercial charter and sight seeing boats, and by 21 was the 1st Mate/ 2nd Captain of a 500 passenger commercial boat in New York City. During his young and busy career Jason owned a yacht management company, has been captain on private and charter yachts, commercially towed, and has also been a salvage master (where he narrowly avoided the local alligators while spending 45 days as master salvage diver in Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina!). In his time off the water, Jason enjoys traveling with his wife and young daughter, and continues traveling throughout the US and Europe as often as his busy schedule allows. At home in the US, Jason enjoys customizing and restoring old cars and motor cycles (he has built 2 custom Harleys and restored a 1976 Ford F100) but his biggest passion of all is food: cooking it, eating it and traveling to restaurants to eat and learn new techniques. After a resent Shark Tagging Expedition onboard M/Y Marcato, Jason has taken on a roll as Maritime Advisor for a Non-profit Marine Scientific Organization. Jason's diverse experiences and interests inside and out of the yachting industry makes him a friendly, versatile, and dynamic member of the crew aboard M/Y Marcato.

One could say Neptune Blue is reaching new heights: influenced by Foo Fighters, Stone Sour, and Linkin Park, Neptune Blue is blasting off with a fresh new sound, exploring a guitar-driven hybrid of rock and pop elements as well as live orchestral elements and 80s-style harmonies. With slick production and impressive vocals, Neptune Blue is an exciting new band whose edgy sound will please even rock fans with the most discerning of tastes. Based in Los Angeles, California and Amsterdam, Netherlands, Neptune Blue delivers their first track, "Heartbeat", from their forthcoming debut album New Horizons, due out later this year. Their sound is built upon layers of experimentation, drawing on urban rock influence, strong
riffs, and heavy melodies.

Keep on Truckin' & Showin'
By Larry Pruitt
We haven't shown very much in the last couple of years. Bustin' Out! is now over ten years old. Our priorities have changed somewhat as we have been off racing with the grandkids. Along with that, the truck is starting to show its miles and as much as you try to keep up with making a good showing wear and tear has taken its toll.
We are making plans to do quite of bit of work and make some (we think) pretty cool changes to make it new and improved. Work has already started on some new and different stainless and we are going to tweak the paint a bit along with updating and changing the lighting package. We are planning to start showing again next year.
This truck showing bug gets in your crawl and it's hard to shake it off. As far as addictions are concerned, we think this is a pretty good one to have. You go down the highway everyday and you catch yourself looking at trucks that go past and you say to yourself, "I like what they did with the lights there or the way they used a different piece of chrome here and there." You're always thinking of ways to incorporate something new into your ride and making it your own design so it doesn't appear that you just stole the idea from somebody. It does become challenging to add any kind custom work to your truck. Every time you think you've run out of ways to customize an aspect of your truck, somebody somewhere in this great country of ours will come up with something completely new that we have never seen before, and within a couple years there will be variations that builders will make to that new innovative idea. So, it's an ever-evolving phenomenon that seems to always take it to a higher level of cool.
I must caution you with new and innovative cutting-edge ideas also comes the practical dilemma. As I have said before, you have to make sure the changes to your truck is conducive to the application of your business. For example, don't install a big rear drop bumper with twenty LED lights on a dump truck. You will most definitely have the coolest truck in town, that is, until you unload it for the first time.
I have always had a soft spot in my heart for the working trucks. The trucks that you see on the highway when it's pouring down rain and you'll also see them sitting in traffic in the middle of an ice storm. I have to take my hat off to those men and women. They're the same people that you'll be competing with at the truck show next summer.
At times there seems to be a growing disparage between "show only" and "working trucks" and I'd like to commend the truck show promoters on their ability to keep them separated at all of the big shows. If you let the two together it only serves to make the competitions less fun and as I believe, unfair for both groups. As far as I'm concerned, those two groups are opposite ends of the spectrum. I have seen so called "working trucks" show up to a show on a trailer. One thing that a truck show competitor loves to hear is when someone walks up to them at a show and says, "You don't use this truck for work do you?" and you see the pride in their face and hear it in their voice when they tell them, "Oh no, this truck runs five or six hundred miles a day."
I would also like, at this time, to thank the great folks at the Iowa 80 Group for giving me this platform. I have enjoyed this opportunity to be able to share some of our experiences and kind of reminisce about our travels as truck show competitors. I would like to give a big THANK YOU to all the folks who have taken the time out of their day or evening to read my ramblings. Some have told me how much they have enjoyed my story and I must say I was really touched by those nice comments.
So long for now, you never know we may come back with another group of stories, we'll see! Until then, keep on truckin' and showin'.

Your First Truck Show
By Larry Pruitt
Hello again. Well you should have your truck in good shape by now, Righttttttt! It's time to find out what the judges think now. CLICK HERE to read more posts from my blog series.
The first time is always the most difficult. We have found that the best way to go about the show type cleaning is to start at the top of the truck and work your way down. That way you won't have to go back and redo something you have already cleaned. One exception to this rule is tire shine. Don't put tire shine until your truck is in place for judging and before you do your cleaning on the fenders. I guarantee, if you're anything like me, you will find that stuff in places you never thought you could — that stuff goes everywhere!
Your first show will have you working harder and redoing stuff more times than you could ever imagine. I remember at our first show, we worked until late in the night for a couple of nights before the show. I can remember sitting there at about midnight a couple of days before the show thinking, "If we don't win something at this show I'm may have to rethink this deal over. This may not be worth the effort." For the record let me tell you it was well worth it.
Our first show that we really tried to compete, was at the Walcott Truckers Jamboree in 2010. We had the truck looking good, we left the house early on Wednesday morning and I think every bug in the state of Missouri, Illinois, and Iowa converged on us and committed suicide on the front of my truck. Then to add insult to injury, I believe it also rained before we got there.
The first stop after unloading everything was to the Truckomat. That gets you a pretty good start on the cleaning process. Dry the truck as fast as you can so you have as few WATERSPOTS as possible (see The Road to Becoming a Truck Show Competitor for more advice about avoiding the dreaded waterspots). Now it's time to get parked. The folks at Iowa 80 park the show trucks in line, they wanted to put me next this really nice Peterbilt owned by Colin Stuart. Colin is a very successful and experienced truck show competitor. I can remember asking the Iowa 80 Super Trucks Beauty Contest people, "Can you park me somewhere else? I don't stand a chance sitting next to this truck with airbrushed horses on the side of the sleeper." Not only did his truck have a beautiful paint job, but I found out later that it also has a working fireplace in the sleeper. They told me, "Don't worry, you guys are in separate classes", so I thought, "OK, I'm good with that." I introduced myself to Colin and told him this was my first real show and I didn't really know what we were in for.
I want to publicly let people know how much people like Colin Stuart and Ron Brubaker helped us at that first show THANK YOU so much for your help and guidance.
So back to the cleaning. We worked all Wednesday evening and then again Thursday morning all the way up until they called 'rags down' at 10 o'clock. When the judges started to make their rounds, I was lucky enough to watch Colin talk with the judges. Colin told me that when the judges come around, show and explain what you have done to your truck and why you did certain things. Point out all the details that you've done. For example on Bustin' Out! we have puppy paws at different places on the truck near a handrail or door handle. This is something the judges may not notice until you point it out to them. Remember also, that when you show the truck you are as much a part of the truck as the truck itself. We had polo shirts embroidered with the name of the truck made that we wear, we even had them made for the kids and grandkids too.
The judging took two or three hours to complete, so now the only thing to do now was wait for the awards. We didn't really expect much as this was our first show and all. I believe if I remember correctly, we wound up getting 2nd in our class which made me perfectly satisfied. I'm sitting there reveling in our accomplishment and then they got to the other awards for theme and polishing. We wound up getting an award for our fireman theme and 1st for OEM sleeper detail. To say the least, we were most definitely blown away by how much success we experienced on our first big show. Tradition at Walcott is that all the winners get together for a group photo and I remember Colin asking me if I thought that all that work was worth it, I told him, "I believe it was!"
I can remember driving home the next day and I would start laughing out loud and Jeanette asked me what was so funny, and I said, "I can't believe what just happened! I never expected all of this." So then the conversation started about what are we going to change to get even better for the next show. It was an incredible experience that we look back on often, and as I said before, "I believe the effort was well worth it."

Show Trucks: The Planning Process
By Larry Pruitt
When you make the decision to start showing your truck, the first thing to look at is the segment of trucking you're involved in. You might be involved in dry van work and all you do is drop and hook and never leave the paved road. There are other segments like grain hauling when you load on farms and elevators and the dust gets to be an inch thick. Dust is not so bad by itself but when it rains you can have a real mess. Take a look at other decked out trucks in your segment and use your own experience to determine which accessories work for you and what will not.
I found myself having to change the decking on top of my frame behind the fifth wheel so I could detach the gooseneck on our lowboy trailer. We decided to use a rhino lining on top because the stainless would get scratched. Eventually we decided to put rhino lining all of the decking to make it balance out. When you decide how to accessorize your truck, you have to take into account the segment you are working in. You can't put mud flaps that run an inch off the pavement and be hauling grain off of a farm road.
During the planning phase, keep in mind what end result you are trying to accomplish. You want to make the truck look balanced; for example, don't put a ton of lights on the front end and nothing toward the rear. Take some extra time to plan the lighting. Try to keep the lights the same type throughout the project. We went with clear lens on Bustin' Out! just to be different and try to set it apart from the others. Using the same type, lens color, and size of lights is good because it allows you to keep a stock of lights for replacements also. If you use a different style of light it may not be readily available at the local truck stop on the road.
The next part of the project to look at is, shiny or painted? I've seen a lot of trucks that had almost everything on it painted, such as mirrors, tanks, even the front bumper. I've seen trucks with just the body painted and everything else chrome, aluminum, and stainless steel. The painted route is easier to get ready for a show; sand it down, repaint and you are done. I'm too much of an old school guy I guess, I like the balance of paint and chrome. The bad thing about the shiny route is there is a lot of polishing and rubbing. We have had our share of black and purple hands at different shows but we feel that it's worth it.
The last part of this process, as far as we are concerned, is the CLEANING. You may think that cleaning shouldn't be in the planning process, but it is part of the process and a part of the maintenance of a show truck. Probably the most overlooked part as well. It's very important to clean the parts everybody can see and even the parts they can't see. Pressure wash the underside on a regular basis as well as the engine compartment. The frame takes the most abuse and is cleaned the least. For a small price, you can get your frame sanded, painted, and clear coated. It makes a big difference when the judges show up and is money well spent. I can't stress enough the importance of staying on top of the washing of your ride. If you get lax on keeping it clean it will just be more of a chore to get it to level you want to maintain. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, make sure you get ALL of the WATERSPOTS!
The interior of the truck is just as important as the exterior. This doesn't take a lot of time or effort after you get it real clean. Every couple of days run a duster over the dash and over the shelves in the sleeper. Keep the carpet clean, or if you have a rubber mat, take a wet rag to it when you dust the dash. Everybody knows that a clean truck runs and drives better when it's clean.
Building a show truck can be done slowly and methodically. Set a budget amount each month on how much you want to spend. Slowly get the truck where you want within your means. Moving at a slow pace gives you an opportunity to change your plan as you go along. Next time, we will discuss getting ready for the judges at your first competitive show.

Step-By-Step Big Rig Wheel Polishing Guide
Zephyr has been helping truckers make metal mirrors for over 27 years now. From the beginner just starting out on their own rig, to the pro who does it every day as a career. For us here at Zephyr there is nothing more satisfying than seeing all of your metal transformations take shape with our Pro Series Products. We hang our hat on being able to provide you with the highest quality metal finishing products available today. The amount of pride in the trucking industry is second to none. Especially the pride in your rides. There is nothing like a freshly polished big rig pushing down the line. So, if you don't find yourself near a polish shop and you don't want the parking lot polisher touching your ride, we hope you can fall back on these easy steps to achieve a perfect shine every time.
Safety first. For this particular process we will be using airway buffing wheels which will require the use of safety flanges. These innovative flanges are molded from high-density composite nylon that are lightweight, yet strong as aluminum. These flanges need to be attached to each side of the buffing wheel and are mandatory when using airway buffing wheels. Next, is your personal protective gear which is just as important as flanges. This includes ear protection, hand protection, eye protection, and most of all respiratory protection. These items are all available at your local Zephyr distributor or at www.zephyrpro40.com they are definitely a must when machine polishing.
Now, on to the "tools of the trade"!! For these wheels we will be using a 3 step process; cut, color, and finish. We will be using some of the most popular products from Zephyr. These products are available at www.iowa80.com
The supplies you will be using today:
- Variable speed Sander/Grinder 0-6,000 rpm
- Safety flanges & Personal protective gear
- Airway buffing wheels – yellow, green, white
- Compound/Rouge – tripoli, moss green, blue moon

- Microfiber Towels
- Pro 50 Eliminator
Primary Cutting – 3200rpm For the first step we will be using the 8" yellow mill treated buffing wheel and tripoli compound. First off, rake the new buffing wheel and fray the edges. This breaks the buffing wheel in and allows it to more easily accept the compound. Remember, the buffer spins counter clockwise. So, be careful when applying the compound. Hold the bar of rouge on the buffing wheel working it from edge to edge for about 3 seconds. First, break the wheel down into sections. Start with the face of the wheel and work your way out to the edge. Left to right, bottom to top with nice even passes. You don't want to apply too much pressure, let the grinder spin freely. Take your time and make sure you make even passes. Overlapping each previous pass. Move up slowly and push your black line of compound steadily forward. When you notice the black line start to fade you will need to rake all of the old burnt-on compound off of the pad and then reapply more compound, then repeat. This is the most important step in the polishing process. If this is done correctly, then you will have really laid the ground work for a beautiful mirror finish. The rest is downhill.
Secondary Cutting – 3200rpm Now, you should have a very shiny surface with a light haze and what looks like hash marks. This is perfectly normal considering this was just the first step. Now, grab your green buffing wheel and green moss compound. Rake your wheel just like before and apply compound to the wheel. Again, start from the inside and work your way to the edge. The moss green rouge is a higher-end jewelers rouge which will provide you with that high luster, show quality shine. This should leave you with an almost perfect finish. During the coloring stage you will really see this mirror take shape. In between steps grab a microfiber towel and apply some of our Pro 50 Eliminator to the wheels. This will dissolve any leftover compound from around the holes. Leave the Pro 50 film on after the secondary stage, this will allow you to see exactly where your polishing line is as well as cleaning all of the green rouge off before moving on to the finishing step.
Pro 50 Wipe down Secondary Cut
Final Finish – 1600-1800rpm Last, grab your white untreated airway or flannel buffing wheel as well as the Blue Moon bar rouge. Again, start from the inside and work out to the edges. This will break down any buffing lines left and blend it all together leaving a flawless finish. If all three steps are done like this, the result should be a metal mirror. It takes a little getting used to, no doubt, but once you have a few wheels under your belt you will be ready to attack bigger jobs like fuel tanks and more! With Zephyr's easy to use products, the beginner can achieve a professional finish.
Wipe Down aka "seal in that shine" – We are not quite finished yet. Now that we have successfully polished the wheel lets highlight that super shine and seal and protect it. That was a lot of work and gratifying as well, so you want to maximize your shine. Grab a microfiber towel and a bottle of the trucking industries #1 selling metal polish, Zephyr Pro 40. Fold the towel into quarters, that way your fingers don't poke through and scratch the surface. Apply about a half-dollar size amount of Pro 40 on the towel and wipe the wheel down. Go with the grain and apply nice and even all over the wheel. Let it dry and use a fresh microfiber towel to remove it. This will repel water and road grime that you may catch along the way. Use the Pro 40 metal polish for maintenance thereafter.

The Road to Becoming a Truck Show Competitor
A True Story
By Larry Pruitt
There are as many truck show competitors as there are different stories about how they got there. Here is a little bit of how we got involved in truck show competitions. Some competitors follow in the footsteps of family members, but most are first generation competitors such as Jeanette and me.
I believe it was back in 2009 we attended our first Walcott Truckers Jamboree. We had just purchased the 2007 Mack truck the winter before, but we also have a couple of antique trucks and we used the 2007 Mack to haul our 1959 Mack to the show. The antiques at Walcott are just an exhibition, not a competition. Well, that year we were running late and didn't get there until Thursday morning, the day of the judging for the Super Trucks.
That morning I went out to the truck stop to unload my '59 Mack. I let Jeanette sleep in at the hotel and planned to meet her back at the hotel for breakfast after I unloaded the '59 at the truck stop. I was visiting with a friend of mine while he was registering for the Super Truck Beauty Contest. He said that I should enter my '07 Mack into the competition. My response to him was "Are you out of your freakin' mind? My truck isn't good enough to compete," and we all laughed.
As I stood there, I overheard the ladies at the registration tent explaining about the different goodies that competitors received just for entering. Imagine that, free stuff just for entering! They got 10% off at the chrome shop just for entering and I thought, "I could use that discount" as I had a whole list of stuff I wanted to purchase for my new truck while we were up there. The goody that sealed the deal was for me was the two free pork chop dinners. If you aren't aware, the pork chops at Iowa 80 are world famous! So signed up and I told my friend, "Yeah count me in."
The judging started at 10 o'clock and it was already 8 o'clock, so I went across the way and got my truck washed at the Truckomat and halfway dried it off. I parked it in line with the trucks that were immaculate and just about perfect. I jumped into my pickup and went to the hotel to get Jeanette. You should have seen the look on her face when I told her, "Dear, hurry up and finish your breakfast we are in the Super Truck Beauty Contest and judging starts in 30 minutes." On the way back to the truck stop I had to explain to her what had transpired earlier. I don't know how many times she asked me, "Are you sure you know what you're doing?" and I told her, "Of course not, but we'll figure it out as we go."
We wiped some of the water spots off of the truck before the judges got to us, but the other 100,000 water spots stayed put. The judges came around, but they didn't hang around very much. Knowing what I know now, I probably would have moved on also. To this day, water spots drive Jeanette crazy. The amount of beautiful trucks was awe inspiring and the attention to detail these competitors have for their rigs was mind boggling. Just for the record, I think we were the only entry with water spots.
We visited with some of the other drivers and started some very good friendships that wonderful weekend. I asked them a lot of questions, and here are a couple of their suggestions. Pick a theme and stick with it – We picked a fire theme and tied it in with the Mack bulldog. Pay attention to the details – Be sure to fix all the rock chips, get all of the wax and bugs off, and line the lettering on the tires up to the top so you can read the brand of the tire. Oh yeah, most importantly… NO WATER SPOTS! Needless to say, we didn't receive any awards that year, but we vowed that the next Jamboree we would make a good showing.

Spring Cleaning
Top Tips to Refresh Your Truck
By Heather Hogeland & Kim Grimm
Winter takes a toll on everything, including, or maybe especially on your truck. The chemicals they put down on the roads to melt the ice and snow and make them safer are hard on all things truck, from the paint to the wiring, the stainless to the aluminum.
Keeping it all clean during these winter months becomes a full time job depending on where you are based and where you run. No matter your lane, the chemicals and salt are murderous to your equipment and it is vital you get it washed as often as possible to keep these contaminants from eating your truck alive. It always feels great to drive a clean truck, even if it only lasts a short time.
When the warm weather finally comes around take the opportunity to roll down the windows and let in that fresh air. Open up the doors while cleaning your interior and start at the top of the cab and work your way down. You'll first need to rid the interior of any build up of dust or dirty particles that have accumulated in the corners and seams of your ceiling with a stiff brush. A blow gun attached to the air lines under the seat work well here, or even a vacuum cleaner if you are able to get one with the right attachments.
Once you have cleaned the ceiling you can do the seats themselves, then concentrate on the dash. Here, you may need to have a cotton swab or toothbrush to get into all the little crevices and vents. I am assuming you have removed all of the litter and trash that may have accumulated on the dash and floor itself over the long winter months? Y'all do realize that the little peeper window in the door on the right side is NOT a garbage level indicator, right??? Your truck IS your home on the road, so hopefully you don't have trash piled high everywhere. If your dash is full of trash it could be an invitation to a nice DOT officer to take a closer look at you, at your truck, at your paperwork. Just sayin'.
There are a multitude of cleaners on the market today, everyone has their favorites. If you don't know what to use, ask other drivers what works for them and check out their results before you spend money on products you know nothing about. I have a compact carpet shampooer that I break out a couple times a year to clean up my interior, especially in the springtime. It leaves everything smelling fresh and clean. It was a small investment many years ago and has paid for itself a hundred times over since I can not only do the floors, I can do the upholstery, walls and ceilings of every truck we've driven since I bought it, whether we owned it or not.
Springtime is also the time to clean out the cabinets and cubbies, get rid of those items and supplies you carried specifically for winter. Clean out your closet, put away the heaviest coats and boots and scarves and gloves and clothing, make way for lighter things. Organize your cupboards and once again, get rid of out of date items. It's springtime! Get out your cameras and brighten up the colors!
Stay safe out there and Keep it Shiny!

Nicki Minaj Cashes In $12,000,000 Deal, Grabs "America" By The Throat [Video]
After weeks of speculation, Young Money's Nicki Minaj will add some flavor to the upcoming season of "American Idol" by taking part as one of the music reality show's judges.
Reports of the $12 million deal surfaced online late Sunday (September 16) evening.
The "American Idol" judges' panel is now complete with the naming of singer-rapper Nicki Minaj and country crooner Keith Urban. The Fox network officially tapped the pair with an announcement Sunday, confirming rumors surrounding them both just hours before the first round of auditions for next season was due to begin in New York. Minaj is getting $12 million for a one-year deal on the hit Fox singing series, a person in the music industry with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Sunday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the deal. (Wall Street Journal)
Executives behind "American Idol" have also confirmed the deal.
Not long after last season's "Idol" finale, with its traditional crowning of the Cute Scruffy White Guy with Guitar (Phil Phillips), attracted the smallest wrapup audience in the show's history, Fox execs promised investors and TV critics the show would undergo a shakeup. And "shakeup" has come to mean bringing in a new crop of celebrity judges. "Nicki is someone who represents a different side of the music industry, who has now crossed into mainstream culture with her unique artistry, style and flair. Keith is one of country music's true stars who brings with him charm, wit and knowledge about the industry," said Cecile Frot-Coutaz, the chief executive of "Idol"-producing FremantleMedia, by way of explaining the new judges. (Washington Post)
"American Idol" ended the 2011-12 season as the leading entertainment show and No. 2 overall, just behind NBC's top-rated "Sunday Night Football." But the show aired its least-watched finale ever and the advertiser-favored young adult audience has been steadily shrinking. The show's cachet hasn't been helped by a run of champions who have failed to achieve the career sizzle of past competitors Jennifer Hudson, Carrie Underwood or Kelly Clarkson. (Associated Press)
Last year, former "Idol" judge Simon Cowell tried to snag Minaj for his "X-Factor" show.
"I can't talk about that, but I love Simon very dearly," the Lil Wayne protégé answered in a British accent. "He's such an amazing man. I had the pleasure of meeting him and my life will never be the same, darling. I told him that. I was absolutely in love with him prior to meeting him. And now that I've met him, it's like I dream about him every night." (MTV)

By Eva Dunne Posted on July 23, 2019 7 min read Comments Off on Baby shopping made easy! 0 8 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Google+ Share on Reddit Share on Pinterest Share on Linkedin Share on Tumblr Having a child is one of the biggest turning points in your life. For some people their first child's birth is the biggest day in their life while other may often cite their wedding day. Whatever it is, having a child has the potential to bring a lot of joy into your life as well as teach you how to deal with responsibilities when it comes to the family. First time fathers often talk about leaving an addiction when their first child is born, be it gambling, smoking or drinking, they often take steps to break the habit or completely leave it cold turkey. The same applies to mother, however, it's a little more obvious in their case since they have been carrying the child around for 9 months. However, one problem that often comes up when families recently have a child is that they are often short of supplies and things other general baby things. they may just have what they have been saving up to buy over the 9 months but they are going to need a lot more help than just that when the baby is finally born. Baby showers are a great way to help the new family out with such things. Yes, it's nice that there will be a nice party and all but you also have the chance to help your friends or family members out who don't really know how things work. For first time parents, they often don't even know what they need when it's their first child! If you are someone who is looking to get gifts for baby shower then look no further, we might just have the perfect solution for you here today. The Baby Gift Shop is an online store which has just about everything you may need for a new born baby. They have toys, blankets and a range of other play things for the baby to engage with then they are born. A baby shower is the best time to give these as gifts to the parents as they will have something for the child as soon as they are born. Parents often choose to leave the gender of the baby unknown till when they are actually born. They feel the thrill and excitement of knowing when they baby is born rather than finding out through an ultrasound beforehand. It may be fun for them but for someone who is buying gifts for the baby, you may not know whether to get boy things or girl things. You really don't need to worry about that when it comes to the company in question, they have a range of gender neutral gifts for you to choose from. This would make gift buying a lot easier for you since you are probably new at this as well. For some people, toys from their childhood often take them through into their adult lives and even to their new homes when they get married. Individuals can often develop attachments to some toys from their childhood which would then last a life time with them. For this reason, you can be sure that the toys from the online store are made to last. Not only are they durable to last a long time, but some of their toys are machine washable so that they do not get dirty and worn out too much. This ensure that the toys will last and that their usability will not be compromised in any way over the years. Other than that, surely getting your friends and family a thoughtful gift will go a long way in terms of gestures. Whether they can use the gift or not may not be as important as actually taking time out and getting them something. The best part is you can sit at home or at work and simply order the products online and wait for them to be delivered to your home. We thank you for reading this far and hope that you find the best gifts for a baby shower. Good luck in your search we hope you find something that the child will love!

Bowling Green, OH – The Falcons got a big boost from their special teams Friday night in a 4-1 exhibition win over the United States National Team Development Program's Under-18 squad.
Freshman Eric Dop started in net for the Falcons, stopping all 11 shots faced. Sophomore Ryan Bednard replaced him at 9:45 of the second period and had nine saves on ten shots faced. Drew Deridder started for Team USA, making 25 saves on 29 opportunities.
First Period
The teams played an entertaining first frame, with a couple power play and breakaway opportunities. However, both goalies kept the scores at zero.
The Falcons finished the first period with 10 shots on net, while Team USA had 11 chances.
Second Period
Eric Dop was pulled at 9:45 of the second period for Ryan Bednard. Dop's night ended with 11 saves and a clean slate.
The Falcons struck first at 14:59 of the second period. Brandon Kruse scored the game's first goal as he took a pass from Lukas Craggs, beating Deridder on the power play with a wrist shot from just inside the near face-off circle.
Bowling Green extended their lead to 2-0 at 16:57 of the second period, again on the power play. Frederic Letourneau looked to center a pass from the near face-off circle. His attempt hit the skate of a Team USA player and fluttered over Deridder's shoulder into the net. Brett D'Andrea and Mitch McLain assisted on the scoring play.
The Falcons finished the period with nine shots on net while Team USA was held to just one shot in the middle frame.
Third Period
Brett D'Andrea gave the Falcons their third goal at 1:23 of the third period. D'Andrea collected a loose puck then went backhand, forehand roofing a shot that beat Deridder. Mitch McLain and Frederic Letourneau assisted on the power play goal.
Team USA drew back to 3-1 at 2:24 as Jake Pivonka sent a one-timer high that beat Bednard. The goal was assisted by Adam Samuelsson and Bode Wilde.
Frederic Letourneau scored a more decisive goal in the third period to give the Falcons a 4-1 lead. Connor Ford fed the puck across the slot to Letourneau on a two-on-one rush, beating Deridder for his second goal of the night.
Team USA opted to pull the goalie with 3:11 to play in the game for an extra attacker.
The Falcons fought off a late surge by Team USA, sealing the 4-1 win.
Bowling Green will travel to Kalamazoo, Michigan Tuesday to open their regular season against Western Michigan.

Steve Bannon continues to prowl Europe pursuing his alt-right agenda, but it is not only the political establishment that is in his sights. Not content with plotting with Italy's Interior Minister Matteo Salvini and others to take over the European Parliament during next spring's elections, Bannon is targeting the Catholic Church and the Pope himself. The former Trump advisor is closely involved with the Dignitatis Humanae Institute, "a think-tank founded in 2008 whose goal is to protect and promote human dignity based on the anthropological truth that man is born in the image and likeness of God," in the words of its website. Capitalism, communism, Freud, and modern education are its stated enemies. The president of the Institute's board of advisers is an arch-conservative cardinal and one of Pope Francis's leading critics.
The "Institute for Human Dignity" is housed in the 800-year-old Monastery of Trisulti east of Rome. It was founded by Benjamin Harnwell, a former aide to a British conservative MEP and the smartest guy in Rome. How do we know he's the smartest guy in Rome? Because every single page of his website features a picture of a grinning Steve Bannon telling us so.
Any Vatican conspiracy worth its salt needs a sinister cardinal at its heart. Step up Cardinal Raymond Burke. Burke has been involved with the Institute since 2013 and is long an outspoken critic of Pope Francis. In 2014, Francis removed him as head of the Vatican's Supreme Court and demoted him to the largely ceremonial role of patron of the Order of Malta. Since then, the pope has effectively discharged him from even that role by making Archbishop Angelo Becciu his delegate and exclusive spokesman for the Order. Yet an article in The Washington Post in February 2017 argued that "Cardinal Raymond 'Breitbart' Burke" was still trying to legitimize extremist forces that wanted "to bring down Western liberal democracy," no less.
Bannon is increasingly focussing his energy on Europe, telling Reuters that after November's Congressional elections in the United States, he would be spending "80-90 percent" of his time in Europe building up his Brussels populist "Movement". America's gain is our loss.
Representing old-school Catholic politics in this unholy alliance is Rocco Buttiglione, once a leading Christian Democrat politician, nominated to the European Commission by then-Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi, but forced to withdraw after declaring that the principal role of women was to bear children. Buttiglione is a "founding patron" of Dignitatis Humanae, but also a convinced pro-European who "stands by the Pope".
So what unites Buttiglioni, Burke, Harnwell, Salvini and Bannon? Buttiglioni described Dignitatis Humanae's mission as "defending the Judeo-Christian tradition". Two years ago, Cardinal Raymond Burke told Il Giornale that "Islam is a threat in the sense that its goal is to rule the world." Harnwell has declared that the younger generation across the Western world is on a "long slide" into darkness, which his Institute is working to resist by "trying to prop up one of the major pillars of Western civilization – what used to be called 'Christendom'. And Salvini once declared that, "today's Islam is dangerous. I don't want it."
Steve Bannon believes that the "Judeo-Christian West" is at war with Islam and has warned that secularisation and Islamism in Europe "will completely eradicate everything that we've been bequeathed over the last 2,000, 2,500 years." The thrice-married Catholic Bannon blames Pope Francis for not defending "Christendom", and for the migration crisis that is bringing hundreds of thousands of mainly Muslim refugees to Europe. And with the pope weakened by his handling of the church's ever-growing number of sex abuse scandals and failure to respond to the Viganò letter, respectable journalists are writing articles about plots to "take him down".
Two or three years ago, Bannon and his new European chums would have been dismissed as an irrelevant lunatic fringe and talk of a conspiracy to oust the pontiff and take over the Europe Commission would have been the stuff of one of Dan Brown's weaker plots. But two or three years ago, Brexit seemed an impossibility, Matteo Salvini was the leader of a small separatist party in the north of Italy, and most people thought they would never hear the words "US President Donald Trump" and not laugh.

The typical diet caters to the masses, striving to appeal and be applicable to as many people as possible. There are few diets out there that focus on a very specific group or niche market. Enter the Ketogenic diet, a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate diet that is primarily used for medicinal purposes to treat difficult-to-control epilepsy. While children with epilepsy were the original target market for this diet, it can be used for adults with epilepsy or even those not suffering from epilepsy at all. However, the effectiveness and science behind the Ketogenic diet can be confusing and debatable. So let's delve into this diet a little more to determine whether or not it provides a truly healthy and effective lifestyle change, which is how all diets should be approached.
The Ketogenic diet has long-standing history that is deeply rooted in scientific research. It was developed in 1924 by Dr. Russell Wilder at the Mayo Clinic. While it proved to be highly effective in treating epilepsy, it became essentially useless in the 1940s when new anti-seizure medications emerged. The diet saw a resurgence in 1994, when a man named Charlie Abraham and his family started The Charlie Foundation. The Charlie Foundation was established after Charlie made a complete recovery from daily seizures, despite testing out all of the available anti-seizure medications and undergoing a futile brain surgery. His recovery was largely if not fully credited to being on the Ketogenic diet as a toddler and remaining on it for five years straight; because of this, today he is a seizure-free college student. Due to the life-changing results he experienced on this diet, The Charlie Foundation commissioned a special panel of neurologists and dietitians in 2006. Collectively, the panel had a particular expertise in using the Ketogenic diet to create a unanimous statement in support of the clinical management of the diet, as well as when it was appropriate for the diet to be considered. What they found was that children are especially good candidates for the diet, due to their reliance on adults for nourishment and to the nature of their young developing brains.
While anyone can try the Ketogenic diet for themselves, the core focus and target market of the diet are individuals suffering from various types of epilepsy. Food plans are therefore a very meticulously regulated component, so as to prevent seizures in children and adults. The Ketogenic diet can take on many variations. However the most standard version provides 4 grams of fat for every 1 gram of protein and 1 gram of carbohydrate, in a 4:1:1 ratio. People on the Ketogenic diet have to eat mostly fatty foods, such as butter, cheese, nuts, cream, peanut butter, etc. Conversely, foods such as bread, pasta, fruits and vegetables have to be severely limited. Total calories are also restricted; at every meal, the food is carefully measured so that the correct amounts of each food are given in that 4:1:1 ratio. Even a slight departure from the diet can completely cancel its potentially beneficial effect. Obviously, the Ketogenic diet is quite strict and can be hard for some people and families to follow. Needless to say, this is certainly not a diet for those with low willpower.
The large majority of this article is focused on the science behind the Ketogenic diet, in an attempt to explain and outline how exactly it works in the human body. Because yes, it really is that complicated! The short and simple explanation is that the diet forces the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates. The detailed explanation is slightly more complex. Typically, the carbohydrates contained in foods are converted into glucose, which is then transported around the body. Glucose, as you may already know, is one of the body's primary energy sources. This whole process is extremely important for fueling proper brain function. However, if there are very little carbohydrates in one's diet, the liver ends up converting any and all fats into fatty acids and ketone bodies. The ketone bodies then go into the brain and replace glucose as the body's energy source. The objective is to achieve an elevated level of ketone bodies in the blood, which is a state known as ketosis. Ketosis leads to a significant reduction in the frequency of epileptic seizures. Another effect of the Ketogenic diet is that it lowers glucose levels and improves insulin resistance. In addition to high fats and low carbohydrates, the standard therapeutic diet for pediatric epilepsy calls for just enough protein to aid body growth and repair. When the diet works as intended, people usually start having fewer seizures in as little as two to three weeks.
The Ketogenic diet is impressive in its ability to reduce and even eliminate epileptic seizures. The research behind it is well established and scientifically sound. For those who possess strong willpower to stick to a diet and the dedication necessary to do some in-depth research, the Ketogenic diet may be the most beneficial lifestyle change you or someone you know can make.

Welcome to Moitié Pro.
We are changing the way people apply and wear lash extensions - our lashes are easy to apply and with no damage to your clients natural lashes. The Moitié Magic is in the patent-pending 5 segment design that is supported at the lash line rather than an individual lash. Our professional grade lash glue creates a seamless look and gentle remover releases the hold allowing the segments to be removed without pulling on the natural lashes.
We look forward to growing our Moitié Family of Salons and Artists with you.
Lash Health
It is known that traditional lash extensions stress individual follicles that can cause accelerated lash fallout and irritation. Additionally, over time some experience slower lash growth where the hairs are damaged. Moitié Lashes utilize a three dimensional design to create a voluminous look using less hairs, less applications and less weight. By spreading the already-reduced weight across multiple hairs, each follicle has less weight to carry. Thanks to our bridge design, lashes are also less prone to twist and be damaged.
Using both our Professional Lash Glue and Remover will ensure that your clients lashes are applied and removes safely.
Faster Application & Learning Curve
Our patent-pending 5 segment design gives your clients an option to schedule or drop in for a lash extension application in 15 minutes or less. Using Moitié Lashes means that you can have many more customers, and they'll be happier because of the time you have saved them.
Moitié Cosmetics' easy to follow instructions and pro-educational tutorials will have you and your team ready for business in just a few hours.
Superior Appearance & Ingredient Quality
Moitié Lashes are available in several silk styles from Natural to Full Glam. The 5 segment design allows for customization.
Our professional grade lash glue bonds with your clients natural lashes. It has a low viscosity that only requires 1-2 drops of glue to apply the entire set of lash extensions. Once set the bond is secure for 10 days.

HOOSICK FALLS, N.Y. (NEWS10) – Hoosick Falls voted to discontinue business with a Glens Falls law firm that represented the village throughout the water contamination crisis.
The village board voted unanimously to end business with FitzGerald Morris Baker Firth Law Firm, which represented the village since before PFOA contamination became public knowledge. Many said it was the first step toward the transparency they've been asking for.
"Given all the questionable things that have come to light, it was an absolutely necessary step," Loreen Hackett, of Hoosick Falls, said.
"Really pushing the transparency that everybody has been looking for, for the past three years," Michael Hickey, who discovered the PFOA contamination, said.
Hackett and Hickey have spearheaded the community's efforts to find the truth. They said Monday night's vote was big.
"So many other things have been infuriating and hidden that half of you doesn't want to know any more," Hackett said.
But there is more. Mayor Rob Allen announced that along with the termination of the agreement with the law firm, the village will also honor Freedom of Information requests from the media regarding invoices to and from the firm without redacted information.RELATED: Complete Coverage: Hoosick Falls water contamination crisis
"We're going to be open and transparent," he said. "We're going to let the documents speak for themselves."
Allen said the information in the documents shows why the firm should no longer represent Hoosick Falls, and he wants it to be public knowledge.
"The village needs to know we're advocating for them," Allen said. "We're looking into all of the data, all of the science, all of the facts, so that we can make the best decision."
Something Hickey and Hackett said they've known for a long time.
"He's moving fast and has what we expected from him and what we hoped, and he's doing everything that he said he was going to do," Hickey said.
"We have quite a bit of faith in what he knows, the knowledge he has, and how he's going to use it," Hackett said.
The mayor said the next step is finding a new law firm. The village attorney will stay on for another two to six months before retiring.
When new representation is found, Allen said he'll move forward with working out a deal with Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics and Honeywell that benefits the village.
