Members of the registered student organization 80 Proof held an event at Alumni Circle on Wednesday to promote awareness about alcohol abuse. The event was held in conjunction with National Campus Safety Month, and used vision-impairing goggles to simulate the effects of the over consumption of alcohol. Students drove pedal cars and attempted miniature golf, ping pong and bowling challenges. Other events are planned for the month and can be found at www.ucapd.org/index.php/national-campus-safety-awareness-....

proof that I love this city. I never had a hat for Philly, Jersey, Baltimore, New Hampshire, Boston, Tokyo, or Atlanta. But I have a hat for San Francisco. I think this means we are in love.

This image proves that I can keep the engine running while shooting a video for a few seconds. Actually, it will stay running all by itself for a little while.
This is what the ECU installation looks like, more or less, from the driver's seat.
You may notice 3 little red lights blinking on the end of the ECU. The bottom one blinks every time an injector fires; the middle one is on whenever the 'warmup enrichment' is operating; and the top one is on when the 'acceleration enrichment' is operating (ie, when I'm punching the gas pedal).
The stuff still lying on the floor is the clothesline rope that I've been using to pull wiring through the firewall (it will stay here until I'm sure I'm done with this stuff), and wiring for the O2 sensor that hasn't been installed yet. Also hanging down are a cut-off wire from (I think) an old stereo installation; extra vacuum line from the intake manifold to the ECU that I haven't cut off yet; and the socket for the interior light that's waiting for the fascia panel to go back on under the dash.
Last night a generous friend with a trailer came over and we hauled the car to a speed shop that (with luck) can tune the MegaSquirt on their dyno and get me back on the street. The car did run well enough to pull itself up onto the trailer under its own power.

The Nolan No. 2 Proof Press makes galley proofs or uses a galley plate for standing type. Its design compensates for various thicknesses of paper- a nice feature. It cost $167.00 in 1956, when stationary stores actually sold real carbon paper. This one is used for testing ink colors and pulling galley proofs.
I got to shoot this little guy yesterday morning...we tried and tried, but he was not going to sleep for us! Got some pretty cute shots regardless :)
Not sure why, but people keep linking to this image on my site. I'll put it here instead then. It's such a nice proof I had to write it down clearly. Taken from "The Mathematical Universe" by William Dunham, which is the most entertaining maths book I've read.
The Benedictine abbey of Saint Mang was founded in the first half of the 9th century as a proprietary monastery of the Prince-Bishops of Augsburg. The reason for its foundation goes back to the hermit Magnus of Füssen (otherwise known as Saint Mang) and his Benedictine brother Theodor, both from the Abbey of Saint Gall,who built a cell and an oratory here, where he died on 6 September, although there is no record of which year.
The saint's body, amid miracles, was discovered uncorrupted, a proof of his sanctity, and the veneration of St. Mang was the spiritual basis of the monastery.
The foundation was not however solely spiritually motivated; there were practical political reasons underlying it as well. The monastery's key position not only on the important medieval road from Augsburg across the Alps to Upper Italy but also in the Füssen Gap ("Füssener Enge", the point where the Lech River breaks out of the Alps) gave it an immense strategic value, which made it of political concern both to the Bishops of Augsburg and to the Holy Roman Emperors.
The history of the abbey in the Middle Ages is principally marked by the efforts of the religious community to maintain a life true to the Rule of St. Benedict amidst the various pressures caused by external social developments. Over time therefore the monks repeatedly embraced various reforms and reforming movements intended to bring about a return to the essentials of the Benedictine life. These reforms mostly resulted in spiritual and economic growth and an increase in the headcount, which in turn brought more building and commissions of artwork.
The energy of the Counter-reformation found lasting expression in the construction of an enormous Baroque abbey complex between 1696 and 1726, commissioned by Abbot Gerhard Oberleitner (1696-1714), which still today, along with the High Castle (Hohe Schloss), characterises the town of Füssen.
The architect Johann Jakob Herkomer (1652-1717) succeeded in turning the irregular medieval abbey premises into a symmetrically organised complex of buildings complex. The transformation of the medieval basilica into a Baroque church based on Venetian models was intended to be an architectural symbol of the veneration of Saint Magnus. The entire church represents an enormous reliquary. For the first time in South German Baroque construction the legend of the local saint inspires the suite of frescoes throughout the entire church. The community at the time also set out to make the new church the envy of connoisseurs for the quality of its artworks. Among the artists who contributed various forms of decoration for the building were Anton Sturm, Franz Georg Hermann, Jakob Hiebeler and Paul Zeiller, whose only extant oil paintings are in the Chapter Hall.
Although the abbey was never able to obtain the coveted Reichsunmittelbarkeit (independence of all lordship except for that of the Emperor), it had a decisive influence as a centre of lordship and economy, cultural and faith life, on Füssen and the whole region.
On 11 December 1802, during the secularisation that followed the Napoleonic Wars and the Peace of Lunéville, the princes of Oettingen-Wallerstein were awarded possession of St. Mang. On 15 January 1803 Princess Wilhelmine ordered Abbot Aemilian Hafner to dissolve the abbey and vacate the premises by 1 March of that year.
The contents of the library were shipped off to the new owners down the Lech on rafts. Most of the items are now in the library of the University of Augsburg, except for a small collection of especially valuable manuscripts, which are in the Augsburg Diocesan Archives.
In 1837 the former abbey church was transferred as a gift to the parish of Füssen. In 1839 the Royal Bavarian chamberlain, Christoph Friedrich von Ponickau, bought the remaining lordship of St. Mang. In 1909 the town of Füssen acquired the Ponickau estate, including the former abbey buildings (apart from the church).
The north wing was used as the town hall. In the south wing the Füssen Town Museum is now located, with displays on the history of the abbey and of the town, particularly of the traditional manufacture of lutes and violins in Füssen. It is also possible to view the Baroque reception rooms of the abbey in the museum

An outtake from last week. proof is a great restaurant in downtown Des Moines. Caught it late afternoon with a reflection of the Ruan Center on the left and 801 Grand in the center.
you can see that my picture does not even show up when you look for it, the picture is blacklisted or something.
Just remember, this can happen to you !
