    Beware Of Buying A Second Hand Jeep!.

    Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

    It is always important to know about the product or the machine you want to buy. It would be wise to have the basic idea of what you would have to check before you buy it. Very recently I have seen jeeps for sale sign and wondered what kind of jeeps he is talking about.

    The type of jeep and the purpose for which it is to be used has to be ascertained. You need to then examine the Jeep on Sale depending on the above criteria. If the price seems reasonable ask about the warranty. The reason for the low price should also be found out. There could be a specific reason, so make sure you know what it is. Don’t make a hasty decision.

    What you need to look for when you purchase a new or used jeep that is put on for sale, varies based on the type of the jeep and what it is or would be used for. In case of new jeep, you better find out why it is put on for sale. If you think that the price is very low, then don’t forget to enquire about the warranty of the vehicle. Also ask why the price is so less. There could be a catch, so be careful. Don’t be hasty in taking a decision.

    The more number of kilometers traveled lesser the price. The condition of the tyres should also be checked. A long test drive would help to determine their condition provided the owner is agreeable to this. Gears should not appear sluggish. Mileage is also another vital point.

    Check the distance it has traveled, that could be helpful in bargaining if possible - greater is the distance traveled lesser the price. Check the condition of the tires, if they are worn out. May be you should take a long test drive -if the previous owner has no problem with that- and check if the gears are sluggish. Inquire about the vehicle mileage.

    There is one thing you mustn’t forget to ask and that is if the vehicle had met with any accidents. Once again no matter what the owner says it’s better if you get it checked by a personal mechanic. In case of military jeeps that go through the rough and rugged plains, you need to check for cracks in those parts that take the maximum pressure. Do check if the engine runs smoothly when you take it for a drive.

    If you find that by all means this is the best deal available in the market, only then put your money on that. Wish you get a jeep that solid as a stone.

    That’s A Brown Corky Fatboy Lure For You!

    Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

    Imagine yourself as a 10 pound speck for just a few minutes. You’ve spent much of the winter hanging out in a relatively warm East Matagorda Bay mud flat, waiting for spring to show itself. And there it is - the sun finally starts coming out enough to warm the waters, signaling that it’s time for action.

    You start to move, cruising right along the flat until you see it - your favorite spot to feed. The patch of mud with its shell pad is a familiar landmark and you think back happily about years past when you would happily fill up on all you can eat shrimp and finger mullet. Your stomach immediately starts to grumble as you recall these feasts.

    You get into your favorite spot, right where the shell bed meets the mud and wait. Before long, a tempting six inch mullet comes along, oblivious to your presence.

    Before the mullet even knows what happened, you’re drifting back to the bottom feasting on your first catch of the season.

    Only a moment later you see another one; this one looks like it’s wounded. An easy catch, you chuckle to yourself as you prepare to pounce.

    Like a flash of lightning you’re on the mullet and it’s in your jaws - but this one seems to be stronger than you!

    A forceful shake dislodges your prey, but somehow you’re still being pulled upwards and you become too tired to fight back against the pull of that Boga caught in your lip.

    “It’s gotta be at least ten pounds!” someone exclaims.

    Two other men approach, admiringly looking you over. Is that a camera flash you see?

    Finally they unhook you and pit you back in the water, exhausted but relieved to have survived the ordeal.

    While making your way back to the bottom, you can faintly make out someone saying “And that’s why I like Corky Fat Boy lures.” You’re not entirely sure what that means, but you know you’ll think twice before pouncing on a wounded mullet next time.

    If this is how a trophy trout really understood us when we talked, they’d know that in being tricked by the lure, they were making an angler’s dream a reality.

    When word broke out that James Wallace broke the state’s speckled trout record, an infection had spread across the gulf coast; fishermen turned to an arsenal of Corky’s, a slow sinking soft bait, when hunting for the trout of their lifetime. Packing the size of a topwater and the wobble of a broken-back, the tempting attraction of a slow retrieved Corky in winter is just flat out effective for trophy specks.

    “James Wallace really grew our business with that catch,” says B&L Corky founder Paul Brown. “Once the word got out, we were sold out of each and every Corky almost instantly.” Of course, Corky saltwater fishing lures are still the hottest item at this family owned Houston shop, as they have been since that famous catch.

    Captain Mike McBride, a fishing guide in Port Mansfield is a man who knows Corkys well and uses these lures along with his own one of a kind retrieve to land speckled trout on the lower Texas coast.

    “You work your lures a bit differently based on what part of the coast you’re on, but I try to pop the knot off while trying to keep up with the slack if at all possible,” says McBride. Contrary to the advice you’ll find in many of the fishing reports, Captain McBride doesn’t generally go with the slower than slow approach many use. He instead uses more aggressive movements which mimic the behavior of real baitfish, which as he points out is the beauty of a Corky in the first place.

    Matagorda trophy trout guide Captain Jesse Arsola tells us that he has a specific technique for working Corkys saltwater fishing lures.

    “When trout are aggressive they will nail anything; but when you have to work for them to bite, technique really comes into play.”

    “If I use a Corky, I’m usually using a counting system. I keep track of how long it takes the lure to hit bottom, then I vary the amount of time I allow my Corky to sink before I pull out the slack. From there, it’s just a matter of identifying what count you tend to get bites on. This is a really easy way to figure out just where in the water column the trout are feeding.”

    Captain John Havens, a tournament angler from Clear Lake, Texas favors chartreuse, white, and gold sided Corky Devil and a rather routine retrieve.

    “Make sure to stay in contact with the lure at all times to feel the most subtle of bites.” When working a Corky Devil, Havens retrieves with a lift of the rod with one or two twitches before allowing the lure to fall.

    Gay Travel Guide, Cancun

    Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

    Who wouldn’t like Cancun’s lovely white beaches, historical sites, and a nightlife that can’t be beat? This is a great city for gays to visit and provides a lot of places for a gay tourist to go that are in operation solely to entertain gay visitors. No one should go to Cancun without sampling a bit of everything from the rich tradition of the Mayans.

    Cancun offers both modern day fun in the busy city and historical, educational benefits in the ancient ruins nearby. Make sure you plan for at least a day to tour the Temple of Kukulcan. The place of prayer is worth seeing, however there is a valid excuse to come soon when one travels when it is Spring or Autumn Equinox.

    The pyramid’s corner projected a shadow shaped like the legendary snake Kukulcan as the sun moved slowly across the heavens. The Mayans believed the serpent fertilized the earth when it reached the ground.

    The wonderful city located on the Yucatan Peninsula in a place known as the Mexican Caribbean was built in 1970 and till then it had only three living people who were the caretakers for a coconut plantation. Until then, it contained the remnants of the Mayans, natural beauty and of course, coconut trees. Today, you will discover the magic of the ancient integrated with a contemporary city whose oldest building was built after 1970.

    If you love water and sun then Cancun is right for you. Of course, you can go to any beach on Cancun, but the white sand across from Ruinas del Rey is the main gay beach. Cancun is gay friendly and the beach allows a great day of sun and sand with some time to chance upon a friendly meeting.

    If simply lying out in the sun or cruising the beach isn’t active enough, there are ample spots to snorkel, scuba dive, sail or fish. For evening entertainment, take a dinner cruise.

    With all the activities of the day, take a nap after dinner to prepare for the nightlife. Nightlife doesn’t begin until 10:30 and then goes through the night to 5:00 in the morning.

    There is a large diversity in the bar scene, but if you are looking to mesh with the gay scene, Karamba is the place to go. There’s entertainment to suite every taste in popular music. Get a seat early, because after midnight, the joint fills up with locals, but the place only holds 450 people.

    The earliest drinking joint for gays in Cancun is Picante. They have get-togethers on all nights, however during off days the get-together is inclusive of outfits as well as good actings. Go on Thursday for Tequila night and free shots.

    You can find a lot of gay friendly hotels and resorts like Hyatt Regency Cancun, Gran Melia Cancun, Presidente InterContinental and The Ritz-Carlton.

    Automotive Radiator Flush Is An Easy Job

    Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

    With driving every day and a busy lifestyle it is easy to let the little things go a bit to long. When you are in heavy traffic and it is the worst possible time for an automotive problem that is when it is going to happen. There are a few simple automotive repairs that you can do to try to avoid problems.

    A radiator flush is a easy job that most everyone can do. A properly maintained cooling system is important. It keeps the engine cool and it also helps the AC cooling system functioning properly.

    Before you begin make sure that you have the proper items for the job. The radiator flush solution and proper amount of coolant. The tools you will need are a rag, screwdriver, funnel and a receptacle for catching and storing the used coolant until it can be disposed of at a proper facility.

    The first thing you need to be sure of is that the engine has had plenty of time to cool down. The last thing you want is to be burned by hot coolant (very painful). Once the radiator drain or the lower radiator hose has been removed from the radiator the fluid will drain. Take the cap off to speed up the process.

    Be sure that the receptacle is positioned to catch all the engine coolant. If the coolant spills over it can be messy and lead to more clean up time. Coolant can be toxic to animals and it has a sweet taste so they will drink it if you let them and it is not good for them. The answer is do not let them drink it.

    When the coolant is finished draining replace the plug or the hose which ever you removed. Then add the radiator flush and fill with water. Put the cap back on the radiator and start the motor. Turn on the heater and let the engine run. The instructions usually call for 10-15 minutes. After the motor has run for the instructed time turn it off and let the motor cool down again.

    After the engine is completely cool drain the flush and water into the receptacle again. Then fill the engine with the proper amount of coolant for your area. The coolant bottle should tell you what is recommended for your climate. Some severe climates call for a 50/50 mix of coolant and water. Do not use only antifreeze in your cooling system as it is very corrosive.

    There are a few easy automotive repairs that you can do yourself. Just remember to always make sure the radiator and engine is completely cool. The excess fluid should always be stored in an approved container and discarded properly.

    Improve Your Golf Slice

    Saturday, June 27th, 2009

    Which would you prefer: to have four over par on your scorecard, or hear a shout of “Fore!”? The answer is obvious. Golfers undoubtedly want their score to improve over previous rounds of play. But the reality is that if you’ve been slicing the ball in previous rounds, you’ll probably continue to do it unless you take corrective measures. But, you can get better, provided you figure out what is causing you to slice the ball in the first place.

    To get a handle on the reason for your slice, you need to understand how your club is lining up with the ball. The most important thing you can do is relax. Slices often happen as a result of overcompensating your drive, and they tend to occur from the tee. The best strategy to discover how you’re slicing the ball is to place your club face in line with the ball. The club’s rounded bottom is meant to assist in driving the ball with a great deal of force.

    Since your clubface is designed to have a sweet spot you want to make sure that you are lining up your ball with that spot in mind. It is best to play with a friend so they can see where you are aiming when you hit your shot. Unless you visit a driving range or golf pro shop that has the technology to show you your swing, a friend can watch you and tell you what you are doing wrong.

    To get drive the ball a sufficient distance, you must hit the ball straight down the fairway. You will make some contact on the driving range, but without proper swing through on the entire course, your game will continue to decline. Remember to hold a solid stance, and avoid lifting your leg like a baseball player. This will only throw you off balance.

    There’s an age-old strategy that many golfers don’t know. This strategy says that you should start by juicing the distance out of the ball in your drive, so that you end with your short game and save par. People who can blast a ball down the fairway are at a significant advantage over those that spend copious amounts of time in the woods searching for lost balls.

    The best method to hit a straight ball is to drive it while on your knees. Now I know it sounds silly but if you have ever tried it then you know that it’s virtually impossible for you to lift one knee off the ground while you hit the ball. Your arms are straighter and you are close enough to the ball you can feel the fluid motion it takes.

    Give this a whirl a few times and you’ll begin to get the feel of a proper swing. This should restrain your body from twisting or aiming the ball improperly, so that you can drive it straight down the fairway. Then, you can take this swing and practice the movement while on your feet.

    After you’ve gotten enough practice to make sure your ball stays on the fairway, you’ll be able to hit it there consistently. You certainly won’t be capable of making any two hundred yard drives while you are kneeling, but this isn’t a permanent driving position. Ask a friend to assist you with your aim, and avoid looking up too soon ” otherwise the only thing you’ll see is a bad shot.

    Secondhand Or Brand New Boat Which One Should I Buy?

    Thursday, June 25th, 2009

    When you are in the market place for a used boat you may wonder where the optimal place would be to see a great used boat. In most instances, the best place to search for a utilized boat would be the boat classified advertisements section of your newspaper. Frequently when people no longer want their boat or prefer to advance to a more original or larger boat they will name their current boat in the boat classified advertisements. This can demonstrate to be a great chance if you are in the marketplace to purchase a secondhand boat.

    When purchasing a secondhand boat from the boat classified advertisements there are many things that you want to bear in mind in order to ensure that you purchase the optimal boat for your needs. First, make sure that you consider more than just the price. If you are on a budget then it can be quite enticing to merely look for a boat in the boat classifieds according to the cost. A low cost is not the only factor that should be considered when purchasing a utilized boat. While there are many secondhand boats that are in great condition, if you want to insure that you keep problems to a minimum later on, you want to consider the latest condition of the boat.

    Call the number that is listed in the boat classifieds and inquire about the boat that is listed for sale. First, find out the age of the boat and the type of boat that is for sale. You should also inquire about the type of water that the boat was secondhand in previously. In addition, inquire how often the boat has been secondhand. Keep in mind that the age of the boat and how much it has been utilized is not the same thing. Even a comparatively novel boat could have seen quite a bit of use.

    When considering purchasing a boat from the boat classifieds you also need to ask the marketer what type of upkeep and remedies the boat has had. If feasible, ask the seller to show you the maintenance log for the boat.

    Lastly, don’t forget that you should never buy a boat sight unseen from the boat classified ads. You should always make a point to inspect the boat in person and when possible you should have a mechanic scrutinise the boat to check that it is in right condition.

    Artists of Hawaii 2009

    Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

    This year will mark the first installment of the biennial Artists of Hawaii 2009. A guest curator will be featured this year who is none other than Laura Hoptman, the senior curator for the New York Museum of Contemporary Art. The event is something that Hawaii residents all look forward to in attending because it will mark again the celebration of the locals’ talents and unique taste of the Arts.

    Contemporary Art depicts the art of the Modern times, it is often confused by Post modern because some claim that we actually live in the Post Modern era already and that any art that comes out during these times should be called as “Post Modern”. To avoid confusion let me first give you the difference between Modern, Post modern and Contemporary Art as these are three subjects that are oftentimes misused.

    Post modern art is described as the combination of the different Art Styles during the Modern era and these styles includes: Art Nouveau and Art Deco among many others. Post Modern style is always a mixture of two or more style era. Modern Art is described as Art that emerged after the renaissance Period or the Period of “rebirth”. It is oftentimes categorized as the Art created during the 18th to early 19th century. Contemporary Art is used to describe the current trend of Styles during the ongoing era. The term contemporary does not come into existence until the half of 19th century (1950’s) onwards.

    Paintings are mostly on display on this exhibit. Expect young and talented artists churning out their fresh minds to create great pieces. Contemporary Hawaiian artists all gather at the Artists Guild to celebrate their talents by showing their creations to spectators and enthusiasts.

    Come and visit the Artists of Hawaii 2009!
