A Tire of a problem
This week has been unusual. One day three of the four tires on the van went flat. Do know what the odds are for this to happen at once. We tried pumping them with a hand bicycle pump. That did not work well. We had can of air but for some reason did not us it. The neighbors were home so we proceded to barrow their air compressor. More problems arose do the air tools for sending air to the tire was not the correct device. After trying 3 air adapters, we finally found the correct one. Trying to leave for the past two hours we were able to leave.
Next time a can-of-air for all tires, a must to have. Better to e safe than sorry.
Pilot fly’s across Engish Channel
A man name Rossy who is a full-time Ailrbus A320 pilot went on the mission fly across the english channel his self-made contraption. The contraption was hitched a on airplane ride and take to about 8000 feet high over Calis, France. Then the composite wing rocket airplane was released, the engines were ignited while still in the plane and Rossy wore a flame-resistant suit to protect his back against the flames of the engine blast. He rocketed at 120 MPH, for about 22 miles and did it in 13 minutes thanks to the help of the four kerosene-powered jet turbines affixed to the composite wing. The rocket kit is basically an jet-assisted rocket pack glider with an 8-foot wingspan. Pretty guttsy flight, I understand the wants to fly across the Grand Canyon next. I guess he is doing it cause it is there.
Deer control for your Garden
For years my father has lived in the country area city. He likes to grow flowers and food. Some of the food he grows is corn, tomatoes, carrots and other produce for his own consumption. One of his biggest issues has been keeping critters out of the garden. The biggest one is the deer. What? The small hoof prints with the ability to reach over the four-foot fence to pull up and damage the garden produce. The deer damage was two fold, one the fencing around the garden has to be repaired every other day, two the lose of produce that you have spent money, blood, sweat and tears getting the food developed to eat. Lets also mention the destruction of flower plants and grass destruction.
Then on March I went to the annual Home and Garden show, at the HG show there was a product that you could sprinkle around your garden. This mixture works like mothballs that repel moths, the grain mixture was a deer repellent supposed to keep the deer intruders away from your garden. It works for a while until he could harvest the produce. Then when produce gone the deer damage went away. But as the planting season comes back around the deer comes back. Now there are electronic deer repellent for your garden along with DeerOff repellent from the folks of Havahart. They have available many different quantities sizes of their DeerOff products and a couple of electronic repllants that I am interested in trying one of those. It getting cooler Deers beware.

Cruise to Fall
Fall is now here, time to prepare our lives for cooling weather. We started doing some cleanup and getting ready over the week end. I am kinda glad that summer is over. But the positive side is with days getting shorter there will be more time to blog. To fight off the upcoming changes would to be head down south to the carribean for one of those cruises on a ship. There are lots of folks who do winter crusies in Bahamas and summer cruises in Alaska. Sounds like a plan count me in.
Tweadered the Twit
One of the biggest issues I have with Twitter, the social microblog that overloads about every two hours, has been not being able to track conversations with other Twitters. Now comes the threaded conversations via Tweader. The way Tweader works is you copy a URL and past into Tweader, you will be able to see a threaded conversation of the related tweets or conversations for your post. The cool thing about this is you can ask a question or take a poll and track all the answers from that one question. This also opens the way for multiple polls and tracking the types of posts will become the next hottest thing to do with Twitter.

Like most us that what the news there seems to be a major rift in financial circle. It seems that allot of the financial broker companies have invested in bad loans in the mortgage industry. The way the news people make it seem that our total financial structure is collapsing, which is not true. Now getting loans will get a little tricker to get. If you need a Car Loans, which lots of us can always use a new car, a Personal Loan, and something that has become main stream is Loans for People with Bad Credit. All of these type of financials tools are available thru BestLeadingLenders.com, they provide you with quick no hassle loan approvals without leaving you home. Sounds good to me.
Which Cat do I stay with?
The other day I do some network cabling. I have some cabling in Cat-5, some in Cat-5e and have been thinking about doing some Cat-6. The first time I had to cable in Cat-5e, I ran into some problems with the wall Cat5e Keystone jack. Cat-5e works best with a cat-5e wall jack, the network traffic moves faster over the Cat-5e cable connection than a cat-5. The next step for 1000mb traffic is designed to run on cat-6, I am sure when the need arises I will have to go to pain of configuring the new wire pattern. Hmmm, I could buy the network cable pre-made. Sweet.
