While snooping around for Weston stuff, I stumbled upon this rather elegant little meter from one of the largest electrical and electronic companies on the globe, then and now, General electric. This particular model, the Type P 8 voltmeter came equipped with a 150 and 750 volt scales and the internal wire wound resistance networks, though only the 150 volt network was in working order, The 750 volt circuit is open. I could also see that the solid walnut cabinet had several cracks in it and once I removed the topside window plate, ( which also had a crack down the middle of the window ), I discovered the source of all the cabinet battle scars. Turns out one of its previous owners couldn't successfully get to the resistors as there was a secondary layer of lovely walnut in the way which was screwed and glued into place at the factory. This design was highly anti-backyard repairman friendly. And so all they managed to do was try cracking open the case and gave up probably after seeing the fruits of the effort go down the drain.
It was offered as non-functional and priced accordingly though the 150 volt range does work and yields a decently accurate result in comparison to my hp 3478A DVM. Oddly though, the meter only properly zeros itself properly when placed on its back but only yields an accurate reading when the meter is vertical.? Weird. But now I am getting a better sense of why Weston was considered the true gold standard in meters in the early years. GE was a major competitor and did offer some very nice looking models of portable lab standard meters and there's always a bunch of them kicking around on the used market. This P8 model though, I've never seen before. There's virtually nothing on line about this model, so I don't know even how old it is or what the accuracy specs were supposed to be on it. If anyone here could shed some light on this model, please speak up!
So far, I've managed to clean her up a good bit and did some carpentry repairs on the cracked pieces and joints. Its not perfect now but at least in a far more sold state. The cracked glass is going to get replaced and is just photo shopped for the sake of a prettier picture for the time being.
Enjoy. :)
UPDATE:
Found out it dates to 1915, according to the patents which took me a while to hunt down. So,...actual antique! Cool!

More stuff as the year comes to a close. I'm not fond of vanilla bean but decided to give this a try. We're expecting freezing temperatures this week in my area but cold weather never stops my ice cream, gelato cravings.

Crusaders fall to St. Joe's in heartbreaker.D3 BOYS' BASKETBALL STATE SEMIFINAL: ST. JOSEPH'S 61, WHITINSVILLE CHRISTIAN 59.By Bill Doyle TELEGRAM & GAZETTE STAFF..SPRINGFIELD— Grant Brown lofted an off-balance 3-pointer in the final second. If the shot was good, Whitinsville Christian would win and defend its Division 3 state championship on Saturday. If it was off the mark, the Crusaders’ season would end. .With Lavante Wiggins of St. Joseph’s close by, Brown didn’t have time to set himself, but his shot was on line nevertheless. ..“To be honest, I thought I was going to get a foul called,” Brown said, “but I saw it, and I thought it was going in.” ..“I was thinking, ‘Man, that would be unbelievable if that thing went in,’ ” WC coach Jeff Bajema said, “and I thought it was.” ..“When he took it, I said, “God, it looks good,’” St. Joseph’s of Pittsfield coach Paul Brindle said. ..The shot hit the back of the rim, however, and bounced away, and St. Joseph’s held on for a 61-59 victory in a Division 3 state semifinal last night at the MassMutual Center. ..“The hoop angels just weren’t there today,” Bajema said. ..St. Joseph’s (20-5) will play Danvers at 12:30 p.m. Saturday at the DCU Center for the state title. This will be the first state final for St. Joseph’s since it won it all in 2001. ..Whitinsville Christian, the defending Division 3 state champion, finished 17-6. ..Colin Richey led the Crusaders with 15 points, including eight in the fourth quarter. His drive put his team ahead, 59-54, with 3:13 left, but WC didn’t score again. ..“They were denying Colin the ball,” Bajema said, “and Colin is the guy who makes it happen for us. We ran some stuff for other guys, but their team quickness really affected us, especially down the stretch. We just couldn’t get into a set.” ..Bajema also thought Whitinsville missed center Jesse Dykstra, the team’s only starting senior, after he fouled out with 2:02 left and the score 59-54. ..St. Joseph’s scored the game’s final seven points at the foul line. Mike McMahon made four of the free throws, including a pair with 10.6 seconds left to give St. Joseph’s its first lead, 60-59, since late in the third quarter. ..With WC leading, 59-58, Tim Dufficy missed the front end of a one-and-one with 22.5 seconds left. After McMahon put St. Joseph’s ahead, Dufficy threw the ball away and Roberson was fouled with 6.8 seconds left. ..Dufficy was upset at himself after the game, but Richey came to his defense. ..“That’s not why we lost,” Richey said. “He shouldn’t feel like that’s a big reason. That’s not why we lost. We lost because we didn’t execute down the stretch, we didn’t make shots, and we didn’t rebound. They just outworked us down the stretch.” ..Roberson made one of two at the line to make it 61-59. After a timeout, WC got the ball to Brown, but his shot missed by inches. Bajema planned to call another timeout when his Crusaders got the ball in the frontcourt, but changed his mind. ..“I thought he had a step on the kid,” Bajema said. ..Brown finished with 12 points. Dufficy had 10. ..Joe Wiggins led St. Joseph’s with 17 points and 12 rebounds, including 13 points and 10 rebounds in the second half. McMahon scored 13 points. ..Whitinsville Christian led for most of the game and was up by nine, 36-27, when Brown scored on a put-back early in the third quarter. Tank Roberson scored seven of his 15 points during a 16-4 run that gave St. Joseph’s a 43-40 edge with 3:31 left in the third. Brown’s 3-pointer highlighted a 7-2 run that regained the lead for WC, 47-45, entering the fourth. ..With four starting juniors returning next year, the Crusaders should be strong again, but the loss will stick with them. ..“It’s definitely heartbreaking,” Richey said. “We put so much time into this over the summer, even since we were kids. So it was definitely tough. You’re going to remember this forever. You’re going to remember this more than if you won the game.”

Very striking and eyecatching looking truck pulling a company reefer. Lovely V8 rumble out of the open pipes too!
The homemade stuffed cabbage at Cevabdzinica Sarajevo is better than my mother used to make, much better. It's probably the best I've had. It's served with scoops of mashed potatoes.
Cevabdzinica Sarajevo is a small, but excellent Bosnian restaurant in Astoria, NY. It's well worth a visit.

how many minis can fill a phone booth? i wanted to "stuff" more in but they kept falling! this was the only arrangement that worked. at the back, on the bottom are the wardrobe from eggs, beans berries #5 and the green bin to storage beauty #1. the tv from merry strawberry #9 is on the wardrobe. the vanity from merry strawberry #4 is on the bin. in the front are the orange bin from SB #1 and the egg table from EBB #8. items from elegant sweets #1,2,4&5, rainbow deli #1,3,7&10 and let's cook 1,5,6&9 are stacked randomly on top of the small furniture pieces and are outside the booth, waiting to be stuffed in. day 204.
Ardei umpluţi, in the Romanian cuisine, are usually prepared with bell peppers (or a similar species) stuffed with ground meat, usually pork, rice, onion and other vegetables and spices. It is very similar to the "punjene paprike" of Serbian cuisine and the "pelnene chiushki" of Bulgarian cuisine.
You could actually hurt yourself pretty bad on some of this stuff. COOL! In the background you can see the new restrooms. Any bets on how long they will be open?
love beef burgers, especially hearty homemade ones! This recipe is simple but delicious... especially when you bite into the burger and get a mouthful of oozing, melting mozzarella!
Ingredients;
The burger.....
1 packet of good quality beef mince
Handful of thyme
1 gherkin (chopped very finely)
Table spoon of Worcester sauce
Table spoon of wholegrain mustard
Rocket
2 rashers of bacon
Slice of cheddar cheese
Sesame burger bun
The stuffed mushrooms.....
2 large mushrooms
Handful of breadcrumbs
Tablespoon of grated parmesan
Teaspoon of chopped thyme
Knob of butter
Place the beef, chopped thyme, wholegrain mustard, Worcester sauce, finely chopped gherkin, salt and pepper into a bowl. The best way to mix this is to get stuck in with your hands and massage the whole mixture together. For each burger you will need to make two thin patties, this is because you are going to place a slice of mozzarella in between the two layers then seal the edges. Once you have done this, pop the burgers into the fridge for about 10 minutes to set.
While your burgers are in the fridge, take your mushrooms and cut the stalks off. Melt your butter in a pan, add the breadcrumbs, parmesan, thyme, salt, pepper and sauté for a few minutes, until the cheese starts to melt and the mixture becomes sticky. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
Take a tablespoon of this mixture and spread over each of your mushrooms. Drizzle with olive oil and place in a medium oven for about twenty minutes (or until the mushrooms are cooked through).
In a pan, cook your bacon, and once it's almost done turn the heat up and add your burger. Depending on how you like you burger cooked, this step is simply to seal the burger so should take a minute each side. Take your sealed burger, add a slice of cheddar cheese and your bacon to the top then pop into the oven to finish with your mushrooms.
Place your rocket on the bottom of your bun, add your burger with the cheddar cheese and bacon then spread your tomato relish on the top of your bun and your done. Serve with your mushrooms and a little salad on the side - enjoy!
Note: you can use store bought tomato relish or make your own. I oven roasted some tomatoes with olive oil, salt and pepper. Cooked on a medium heat for about 20 minutes then transferred to a pan. I added basil, garlic, salt, pepper and tinned tomatoes. I cooked this on a very low heat until the mixture had reduced and was very thick. Simple but extremely tasty.
Re-use or abuse:
I loved this burger and, when I cooked the leftover burger the following day I made a few changes which I think made this even better. Instead of adding the bacon and cheddar (which I think dominated the flavour of the first burger) I added rocket, tomato relish and some caramelized onion (cooked slowly with a little maple syrup) and actually think this allowed the mozzarella and thyme in the burger to shine through!
