Here's my CD cover.

 

And here are the deets on the “rules.”

 

quotationspage.com/random.php3 - The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.

 

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random - The first article title on the page is the name of your band.

 

flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days - The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

 

The Concept

 

The band name I got stuck with was Powerlock, and their new album was entitled, "Saying You Sing It." With a name like "Powerlock," I first conjured up ideas of a thrash band. \m/ But as I was dealt my other elements, I literally changed tunes to make Powerlock the name of an electronic/instrumental band, along the lines of an RJD2 type.

 

The Scenario

 

The original pic is a beautiful shot from Malaysia, I believe. It's pretty amazing. You can see the details here from the photographer Chee Seong's flickr. To fit into the square format, I had to crop part of the image. It was pretty tough choosing between more sky or more fauna. I opted for more sky which I think works better for a more atmospheric feel.

 

The Look

 

I started with a videogame-type font for the name and gridded it out into separate pixels to achieve that quick hit of being electronic. On the other hand, I wanted something serene and flowing that was identified more with the background and its beauty, so I went with Snell Roundhand, which is a simple script - still legible and not overly swishy.

 

The overall essence of the band is complete with the two typefaces centered up together on the background which creates a simple interpretation of digital music creating beautiful expressions.

Oh, and I often carry a MacBook Pro. And a paperback. Criminey.

 

Contrast with pockets.

Compare to 2005.

Leather sheath rides a bit higher then I like on my belt, but I have some idea's to fix this.

From The Car Connection (http://www.thecarconnection.com/review/1036492_2010-honda-element) -

 

The 2010 Honda Element still makes a style statement that's unlike any other. Even for those who don't think the Element is attractive, it's hard to argue with the beauty of its stark functionality.

 

Most reviewers appreciate the Honda Element for its high-utility form, though it's tough to single out particular details. The 2010 Honda Element falls somewhere between the small crossover/SUV/minivan segments and boasts an upright, boxy shape. Last year the Element received a slight styling refresh, from which Car and Driver observes, "Honda has retooled its Maytag-square Element to be more urban-hipster chic, with a lower ride height, bigger wheels, and body-color bumpers." Motor Trend reviewers note that "the most obvious change to the 2009 Honda Element is right up front, where the grille has been restyled to mimic Honda's new bold chrome ring look first seen on the redesigned 2009 Honda Pilot," although they are thankful that, "other than the fresh nose, the Element's easily recognizable look and shape remains."

 

Though the new styling elements are relatively minor, Autoblog finds them significant enough to report that "the new Element is certainly an improvement over the outgoing model, at least in the looks category." Edmunds declared that the Honda 2009 Element "remains one of the most distinctive and useful shapes on the road," and TheCarConnection.com's editors agree.

 

Slight styling changes were made to the Honda Element's interior for 2009, and those carry over for 2010. Changes are basically limited to slightly different trims, materials, and switchgear, though the basic interior design remains the same. Most reviewers appreciate the Element's style inside, as ConsumerGuide praises the "simple, convenient climate and audio controls." Autoblog reports that "the Element's interior includes new color combos, titanium-look accents, and switchgear designs," while Cars.com notes the availability of "a new three-compartment overhead storage unit" on the EX and SC trims. The only major complaint regarding the interior comes from ConsumerGuide, which points out that the "hooded gauges are hard to see in some light conditions, and are partly obscured for tall drivers by the steering wheel."

 

Conclusion

 

Not everyone will agree that the 2010 Honda Element is good-looking, but style-conscious shoppers with an eye for utility will like what they see.

The PowerLock 2.0 cuts cleanly through finely stranded wire whereas the Victorinox SwissTool Spirit just mashes the wires rather than cutting them. Sometimes you'll get lucky and the Spirit will mash through a few of the strands (the photo shows the best outcome of 10 attempts).

Autoblog reports that "the Element's interior includes new color combos, titanium-look accents, and switchgear designs," while Cars.com notes the availability of "a new three-compartment overhead storage unit" on the EX and SC trims. The only major complaint regarding the interior comes from ConsumerGuide, which points out that the "hooded gauges are hard to see in some light conditions, and are partly obscured for tall drivers by the steering wheel."

 

Conclusion

 

Not everyone will agree that the 2010 Honda Element is good-looking, but style-conscious shoppers with an eye for utility will like what they see.

I'm really entertaining thoughts of buying this. Its a bit far away though, and I'll have to wait until the price drops a bit.

 

I love the non-leather perfect not-cracked plastic steering wheel. And its only got 51k miles on it.

 

A sure-fire way to check the year by looking at the interior of one of these is the speedometer. 1985 would be the only year that they only read until 80. Later years would go up to 85.

From The Car Connection (http://www.thecarconnection.com/review/1036492_2010-honda-element) -

 

The 2010 Honda Element still makes a style statement that's unlike any other. Even for those who don't think the Element is attractive, it's hard to argue with the beauty of its stark functionality.

 

Most reviewers appreciate the Honda Element for its high-utility form, though it's tough to single out particular details. The 2010 Honda Element falls somewhere between the small crossover/SUV/minivan segments and boasts an upright, boxy shape. Last year the Element received a slight styling refresh, from which Car and Driver observes, "Honda has retooled its Maytag-square Element to be more urban-hipster chic, with a lower ride height, bigger wheels, and body-color bumpers." Motor Trend reviewers note that "the most obvious change to the 2009 Honda Element is right up front, where the grille has been restyled to mimic Honda's new bold chrome ring look first seen on the redesigned 2009 Honda Pilot," although they are thankful that, "other than the fresh nose, the Element's easily recognizable look and shape remains."

 

Though the new styling elements are relatively minor, Autoblog finds them significant enough to report that "the new Element is certainly an improvement over the outgoing model, at least in the looks category." Edmunds declared that the Honda 2009 Element "remains one of the most distinctive and useful shapes on the road," and TheCarConnection.com's editors agree.

 

Slight styling changes were made to the Honda Element's interior for 2009, and those carry over for 2010. Changes are basically limited to slightly different trims, materials, and switchgear, though the basic interior design remains the same. Most reviewers appreciate the Element's style inside, as ConsumerGuide praises the "simple, convenient climate and audio controls." Autoblog reports that "the Element's interior includes new color combos, titanium-look accents, and switchgear designs," while Cars.com notes the availability of "a new three-compartment overhead storage unit" on the EX and SC trims. The only major complaint regarding the interior comes from ConsumerGuide, which points out that the "hooded gauges are hard to see in some light conditions, and are partly obscured for tall drivers by the steering wheel."

The wire cutter on SOG's new PowerLock is wider and has a much better edge than the wire cutter on most other multi-tools. I was able to cut lamp cord with it whereas most other multi-tools make a mess of finely stranded wire.

 

This photo shows the SwissTool Spirit jammed on lamp cord (right panel). I can actually suspend the SwissTool Spirit by the wire. It didn't take a lot of force but I did have to pry the SwissTool Spirit jaws apart. It had just mashed the wires rather than cutting them (left panel). The clean ends were cut with the new SOG PowerLock.

I like water shut off valves with these types of handles.

If the valve is stuck, just put your tool in the handle as shown and crank on it.

This is my husband's tape measure sitting on a table in his wood shop. I like all of the dings and scratches that show his use of this simple tool.
