Getting in shape

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 5:24 pm

To help our new commitment to getting into shape, we’ve decided to expand our regimine to do a few things outside the home to make things more interesting. We have been trying to decide between several options and finally landed on two – break dancing and a personal trainer. Hayden has even decided to join us for the break dancing class, and is really showing some talent. Nickey has compiled a couple of videos of both:

Someday I would like to read a paper on why static over-sized heads super-imposed on video is so damn amusing. I honestly have to believe that if you were walking down the street and actually saw someone with a pumpkin sized cranium that bobbled but could not turn, and had a single frozen expression its face, you would scream and run… We are talking wet pants and snot-bubble freaky here…

- Micro-VAWT Experimentation August 3, 2010
  I’ve been starting to experiment with micro-wind turbines lately and have been trying to think of turbines that are complact and not very noticable. This is mainly for my wife’s sake, as she wasn’t exactly fond of my last attempt at a VAWT. I’m also trying to keep the cost as low as possible by [...] […]

- Great wind turbine howto site August 2, 2010
  I’ve been searching for more information about micro-wind turbines, power controllers, and general information on how to understand the technical specs of the math needed to figure out the sizing of the system and controller needed for whatever situation the unit is intended for. I’ve been focusing on micro-wind turbines specifically because we recently move […]

- Hypermiling on a Harley – part 3 July 19, 2010
  Since my last update I’ve gone through three full tanks of gas as my test base. I’ve tried to keep as close as possible to the test guidelines, which are keeping as close as possible to 70 mph or under and shifting at the factory specified shifting speeds (15, 25, 35, 45, 55 mph). I’ve [...] […]

- Hypermiling on a Harley, part 2 June 20, 2010
  It’s been a few weeks since I started my hypermiling experiment. Unfortunately I decided to make two changes at the same time so I’m not sure which one has been more beneficial to my efforts. To cut to the main point of these posts, I’ve been able to go from getting 39-40mpg on my Harley, [...] […]

- Hypermiling on a Harley May 29, 2010
  I have been doing some research on finding other Harley owners who have done some experimentation with hypermiling, but haven’t really been able to find anyone posting much about the subject. Since I’ve done a lot of hypermiling in the past, and I own a Harley, I thought I’d start my own testing and report [...] […]

- Worldfest May 17, 2010
  The family and I went to the Los Angeles Worldfest today in Van Nuys. There was a lot of vegan food, animal rescues, clothing, music, and spiritual enlightenment information available. I’m not hardcore into all of that stuff but it was good to get some information on it. I’ve been preparing myself to go vegetarian [...] […]

- My first VAWT part 2 April 23, 2010
  Bottom line – it no workie. The blades are way too small, so I tried adding “extensions” to them, like so: Admittedly it does work better, although not by much. it seems I’m running into a common problem with the design, going by other tutorial sites I’ve read through. I’m going to continue working on [...] […]

- My first VAWT is born April 5, 2010
  I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately about building some type of a wind turbine solution in hopes of eventually taking my detached garage off of the grid. Being in the San Fernando Valley we get a fair amount of afternoon wind that can be utilized by such a device. I did some testing [...] […]

- Green server hosting March 30, 2010
  I just received an email today from my server hosting provider that they are in the process of opening a new data center in Boston Massachusetts that will be fed 100% by wind power. Unfortunately it’s *just* the Boston colo (my server is in Seattle, they will have three total), but I think it’s awesome [...] […]

- Researching solar oven plans March 13, 2010
  Lately I’ve been itching to retry my solar oven experiment. For one, it seems to be one of the projects that gets the most interest on this blog, and secondly I want to see how far I can take it. Someone left me a comment asking if I thought it possible to boil water, which [...] […]
