Motor Homes, the Recession, and Boondocking

September 1st, 2010 by lataha


Image : http://www.flickr.com

There is a rumor going around that the dark cloud of recession is beginning to lift. Manufacturers of motor homes are beginning to gear up production, and are looking at raising prices on the new RVs.

That’s good news for the industry, but what about those people who are still dealing with salary cuts, and shorter workweeks? The RV lifestyle is often seen as luxurious, and that it’s for people who have the money to support it. Frugal boondocking is one way to have your cake, and eat it too. Provided the cake is not expensive.

What is boondocking?

The broad definition of boondocking is parking your RV anywhere that there are no hookups, which could include the Wal-Mart parking lot, or a vacant city lot. The official definition of boondocking means that you camp in remote places, but not just anywhere. If you determine to embark on this kind of adventure, you need to do your homework. The Boondocking Basics book will inform beginners, and help orient them to this non-traditional camping quest.

Where can you boondock?

Overnight stays in National Parks are allowed, but only in authorized campgrounds. Otherwise, boondocking is permitted on Federal land no further than 300 feet from the nearest road and as long as you do not damage your surroundings. Be sure to consider how any changes in the weather might affect your campsite. The time allotted for boondockers to reside on a particular campsite varies from place to place, and depends on the seasons.

Another possibility in farm country is to park your motorhome [http://www.pedatarvcenter.com/blog/living-frugally-in-motor-homes/] on private land. Always ask the owner(s) of the land for permission. Sometimes they may have a concealed spot on the property where you can break your travel for a time. Get copies of the maps for the general area in which you hope to stop, and look for possible campsites to check out when you arrive.

Conserve resources

Naturally, with no hookups, stores, or amenities, you will want to be frugal. Take extra tanks of water with you, and use it as sparingly as possible. Use your power in moderation by turning off unnecessary appliances. Conserving resources includes policing your camping area before you leave. No human or pet waste should be in sight, and trash and garbage needs to go with you.

Do some research on the Internet for resources and information on boondocking. You may find yourself eschewing campgrounds forever.

How to Use Both Sides of Your Print Paper When Printing

August 31st, 2010 by lataha


Image : http://www.flickr.com

Using both sides of a print paper (or duplex printing) is one way to help save Mother Earth without having to join Green Peace or start holding protest marches in your neighborhood. Printing on both sides of a paper, even when you’re color printing saves paper, trees and helps reduce waste, besides.

Although it may seem difficult at first, printing on both sides of a print paper is quite simple and easy to do. All you need is common sense, the drive to do so and these practical tips listed below.

Automatic Duplex Printing

Look for a printer with a duplex printing function. This is probably the easiest way to print on both sides of a paper. Many printers have this feature, since it has practically become standard in all the new printers available. All you have to do is set it up for duplex printing by changing the settings in your computer. Simply go to Printers & Faxes, click on Properties, go to Printer Defaults and then tick off the box next to the words “print on both sides.” When you print multiple pages, your printer will automatically print all the even-numbered pages at the back of the odd-numbered ones. How’s that for simplicity?

Manual Duplex Printing

If you do not have a printer with a duplex printing feature, then do this manually. It doesn’t take much effort, really–especially after you get used to it. Imagine the paper and the energy you save once you know how to use both sides of print paper when printing.

When printing large amounts of text or pages from Microsoft Word, you first have to print all the odd-numbered pages and then flip the print paper you used. You can then print all the even-numbered pages at the back of them. To start, click on File then go to the Print option. You can then select Odd Pages from the Print menu and proceed with printing. After your printer is done printing on all the pages, you can then flip these pages around and select Even Pages to complete the task.

But how do you know which end to insert in your printer, you ask? Usually, your printer’s manual will tell you how to orient your print paper so that it prints on the correct side when you try to print on both sides. Otherwise, you can run a simple test on your own. First, get a blank piece of print paper and draw an arrow pointing up or away from you. Insert this paper into your printer (remember that the arrow should be pointing toward the printer). Then, print out a document–your text should fill up the whole page. Insert the paper again so you can print on the blank side. It should take you a bit of trial and error before you get the orientation right. You can then check, based on the arrow you drew, how to insert your paper for duplex printing.

Help save paper, trees and the environment as well, by using duplex printing. Choose a printer that has this function, or do this yourself. We hope that the simple guide above can help you do your part to help Mother Earth.

Gosford Park – Robert Altman’s Misunderstood Murder Mystery – Movie Review

August 30th, 2010 by lataha


Image : http://www.flickr.com

Robert Altman’s late career masterpiece “Gosford Park” (2001) was widely misunderstood by by the general movie-going public at the time of its release. The film was billed as a murder mystery, and casual viewers were no doubt expecting another “Murder On The Orient Express.”

The tag line, “Tea At Four, Dinner At Eight, Murder At Midnight” reinforced this notion.

But Altman doesn’t work within genre guidelines. He skewers them.

Savvy viewers recognize “Gosford Park” for what it is: a critique of early 20th Century British class structure. If you take the film at face value, you will be engrossed watching as the servant class and ruling class interact. If you cling to who-done-it preconceptions, you will be sorely disappointed.

A highlight is the delightfully over the top inspector character. His light comic tone informs the viewer that the murder is not the main thrust of the story, but a bit of satire. A further clue is the Hollywood producer who is always on the telephone. (He’s working on the new Charlie Chan project.)

In contrast, the scenes which focus on the class system are treated not as satire, but as historically accurate and entirely serious representations. The servants live and work in the mansion basement, doing their best to accommodate the insulated lives of the privileged aristocrats who live above them.

It’s no “Nashville,” but “Gosford Park” is better than “Short Cuts” and on par with “The Player.” And for once, Altman employs a large cast without having them all talk over each other. I appreciate that.

Valuable Tips For Making Or Finding the Right Go Kart Frame

August 29th, 2010 by lataha

If you want to know how to build a go kart frame there are many high quality go kart frame plans available to choose from. A go kart frame is the foundation for your entire go kart and must be made correctly for optimum enjoyment. You have several choices that will allow you to determine how much or how little work you will have to put in before racing around in your new go cart.

You can choose to weld or not weld, it’s your decision

Welding or not welding, that is the question. If you want to weld your own you have two options. You can either make and weld your own frame from scratch or buy a go kart frame kit that has not been welded yet, which will also include a set of go kart frame plans.

If you choose to do your own welding you will either need a MIG welder or at least have access to one. If you don’t have a MIG welder at your disposal you can buy a go cart frame kit with the welding already done. Buying a welded frame kit also has the advantage of having a steering hoop attached. This is one of the most difficult parts of making your own kart, so having the steering hoop already attached will eliminate some possible frustrations.

Welded go kart frames can be found cheaply online, you just need to do a little searching. Make sure you purchase a kit that includes all necessary parts for a complete frame or go cart. You don’t want to be shopping for miscellaneous parts throughout the building process as it can take all the fun out of the project.

Starting with a high quality go kart frame kit

Starting with a good kit is the best approach if you are building your first go kart. Once you have a little experience under your belt you may want to try building one from scratch. If you will be driving your go cart on flat surfaces it will be easier and cheaper to build. Off road go karts require a roll cage attached to the frame and are therefore more difficult and expensive to build or buy.

If you are planning on doing your own welding you should have a large flat surface to work on. You can use a concrete floor, but a large work bench has two advantages. A work bench will allow you to work at a higher level and makes it possible to clamp things down.

Put everything in its proper place

When welding your own go kart frame the first thing you want to do is carefully measure the exact center of the front axle. Next, lay out the frame components in their proper position on the work bench. Once everything is in place begin by tack welding it all together, starting at the front axle and working your way to the rear bumper. Make sure the joints are welded strong enough so they won’t come apart when moving the frame around.

A quick inspection and final welding – then it’s off to the races

After tack welding is completed make a thorough inspection of the frame alignment. Everything must be correctly aligned and the frame should appear square. If you have followed the go kart frame plans that came with the kit you should be OK.

Your next step is to perform your final welding duties. Clamp the frame to the work table, making sure it is straight, square, and aligned properly. This will keep the frame from warping. Follow the instructions that came with the kit and weld all of the joints. After welding is completed it’s a simple matter of finishing the kit according to the plans that were included.

The History of Orient and Flume Art Glass

August 23rd, 2010 by lataha


Image : http://www.flickr.com

Orient & Flume was founded in 1972 by noted glass artist Douglas Boyd. The company’s unique name was derived from its location between Orient Street and Flume Street in Chico, California. It was at this location that Douglas purchased an historic carriage house and transformed it into an art glass studio. Orient & Flume’s stunning art glass creations quickly became popular and by 1973 the business had grown too large for the small carriage house. The company was then relocated to Park Avenue in Chico where it remains to this very day.

Orient & Flume’s early blown glass creations centered on recreating the iridescent glass pieces made famous by such companies as Tiffany, Steuben, and Loetz. Over time this evolved into their current creations of three dimensional designs within clear glass. This eye-catching effect is part of what makes their vases and paperweights so valuable among glass collectors.

Artists Bruce Sillars, Chris Sherwin, Richard Braley, Scott Beyers and William Carter work individually as well as collaboratively to create the breathtaking works of art produced at Orient and Flume. While most Orient & Flume art glass creations do somewhat adhere to a common theme, each artist has the freedom to add their own individual touch and style.

Orient & Flume’s art glass works can be found in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Museum, the Chicago Art Institute, the Metropolitan Museum, the Chrysler Museum and the Corning Glass Museum. In addition they can be found in numerous private collections and galleries worldwide. Their beautiful works are admired and respected by glass collectors worldwide.

A History of Orientale Tapestry Art

August 21st, 2010 by lataha


Image : http://www.flickr.com

Tapestry art has many hidden surprises, one of which is the Asian Tapestries. These were famous in Europe for around 150 years and reflected growing European colonial aspirations. The tapestries were known as Orientale Tapestries and helped promote the exotic travels of those voyaging too the Far East, and were aimed at exciting and thrilling audiences with their vision of the Eastern world.

The Orientale Tapestries date from the 17th century and were associated with the first glimpses of that world by Jesuit missionaries. They became very popular in France and stimulated an interest in exotic and oriental art which has continued to this day.

Many oriental tapestries were not first hand artifacts but elaborate copies of engravings made by missionaries. This style retained its popularity throughout the 18th and 19th century mainly due to the very different nature of the Eastern world, culture and traditions. This culture difference fuelled the curiosity for more knowledge and art from this part of the world. In time the style of the Orientale emerged with some distinct characteristics. The tapestries were almost always tobacco coloured and were decorated with exotic flora, people or creatures, often with remarkable precision. Today these tapestries continue to be popular and offer a glimpse into the Eastern culture and way of life which held a real fascination in the 18th and 19th century.

A distinct piece of work in this tradition is La Recotte des Ananas which is part of a series named, “The Story of the Emperor of China.” A daily scene is shown, typical of China, with peasants picking fruit. The landscape is outlined with a pagoda and other buildings, and a Chinese Empress gestures towards the fruit. The detail is lavishly and exquisitely presented. Tropical fruits in the scene identify this as an exotic Eastern context and not one from Europe. A classical example of the Orientale style, the original is believed to have been commissioned by Louis Alexandre de Bourbon and woven between 1697 and 1705.

These forms were almost certainly not seen first hand by the tapestry weavers but brought back via missionaries and their engravings. Six of the original ten tapestries are now housed in the Getty Museum, Los Angeles.

In 1844 audiences at the Exposition of Industrial Products in France were stunned by the vivid nature of two famous orientale tapestries with their detail and depiction of exotic far off lands. Designed and woven by Charles-Jean Salloundrouze de la Mornaix, the tapestries “Asia” and “Royal Elephant” fascinated and enraptured the crowds, helping to facilitate the message that other cultures existed that were very different from Europe.

Eastern style tapestries enjoyed a short period of popularity, however they remain in vogue today. The pieces act as a record of a way of life abroad and a statement of places once visited, whilst giving an insight into the way in which Europeans perceived the Eastern world during the 18th and 19th century. In tapestry form they make a bold and distinct statement as a wall hanging in the modern home.
