About a month ago, my brakes started making squealing noises every time I was slowing down. So naturally I assumed that this meant they needed replacing (more on that later) and picked up a pair from a dealership somewhat nearby along with some other parts I needed (valve cover gasket). I have come to the conclusion, that if you want something done right, you need to do it yourself. So I took this "opportunity" to learn how to change brake pads by suckering the help of my neighbor Tim and his garage of tools (he had a brake pad spreader and hydrolic jack). So, he did the first one, and I did the second one. Things went smoothly and here are the pictures from doing it all. He was kind enough to let me keep my soft little baby hands clean for the first half to take them :) First, let's look at the two pages from the service manual, pads/shims, and a picture of all the tools you need. I also got some pointers from insightcentral.net from other's who have done this before.
So assuming you have everything, let's take off the tire and look at what we have:
Ok, first thing you want to do is take off the hose retention screw (circled in red) and then remove the bottom caliper bolt fully using a socket wrench. Also make sure you loosen the top one so you can pivot the assembly(circled in red on the second picture), then lift the whole assembly up:
Now the next steps are to remove the old pads (real easy) and clean the area with your handy can of brake cleaner. Make sure you put a pan underneath to catch the runoff and watch your eyes...I hear this stuff hurts:
Ok, now that everything...and I mean everything (be thorough) is clean and grease free (don't forget fingerprints), let's move onto the next part. We need to compress the piston so there is enough clearance to get the darn thing back together. Now you can do this using a C clamp, but the proper tools is a brake pad spreader (as mentioned above). Now there are a few caveats about doing this, as this is arguably the only tricky part. You want to compress it slowly, and make sure you also don't cause any air bubbles in the black seal around it. Burping the seal where you see any distortion is not a bad idea, just don't scratch it while doing that. We found that compressing it just a little past the lip of the seal to be a good amount. And additionally we didn't have any brake fluid overflowing...so bonus there! (you might note, we used a socket just to take up some of the slack):
Ok, now that everything's prepped we need to get the brake pads themselves ready. You should have a pack of black grease stuff that came with the brakes. Basically we're gonna put a thin frosting of that on everything. Basically we put it on the pad, then put the shim on, and then put more on the back. A little really goes a long way, so you probably won't even come close to running out. Note that the inner pad has two shims, and the outer only has 1 shim. Make sure you get it between the shims on the inner pad. Once that's all done (you might need a little leverage to get the inner pads back on, so keep that screwdriver handy) we're pretty much done. Rotate the caliper assembly down and tighten both the bolts to torque (22nm).
Assuming it all went well, your done. Pump the brakes a few times before moving your car to rebuild pressure, and your good to go. Easy huh? Scary how much they charge for something so simple. Oh and thanks Tim. And thanks to Rob Hayward for giving these to me for free.

So I've been up and down since about 3:30 am with my damn allergies. What a living hell. I must have outputted at least 90% of my bodies water through my nose, it's like a freakin' faucet. Anyways, moving on. Today let's talk about the recent release of a demo for Serious Sam 2.
It sucked. It sucked hard and it sucked deep. There is a lot of discussion and arguing about what the bad and good points are over at the official forums, but let me sum it up in a few sentences of what I think was done wrong. The colors and graphics seem to have been tackled from a console perspective (xbox, ps2) and then "made" to work on a PC. Well we all know that consoles can't generate the level of quality a PC can graphic wise, so that was bassakwards. The enemies have lost all of their charisma. Now they are simply colorful, sock puppets to shoot at. Nothing intimidating or worth respecting about them. Just cannon fodder. The weapons feel cheap and fake. Kind of like a bb gun replica of a real gun, just doesn't feel the same. Look, feel, auditory feedback, none of it's there anymore. Overall, I think the singular complaint is that they obviously built this for the lucrative console market, and then cobbled together a port to the PC. It sucks...the menu's suck and are obviously designed to be used with a controller. Plus life's? wtf...it's a first person shooter, dont' give me a stupid life meter on my HUD. I hope the extra sales from console versions make up for the lose of PC players, because honestly this thing just stinks to high heaven. Still want to try it, be my guest, the demo is here.

I feel like somebody shoved a pair of water wings up my nose and inflated them, and then the keebler elves jumped in and started mining for nuggets. My nose is actually starting to chafe. But honestly, I'll take this any day of the week compared to back when I was in high school. Those were miserable times for allergies due to the volume with which I blow my nose. If you know me, you know it's loud. So I could never blow it, just sit there and sniff....meanwhile praying I wouldn't loose the battle and stuff would just start dripping out. Thank god I have all these wicked cool links to keep you all happy with...because you know...I'm all popular and stuff...um..yeah.. - Ford executives claim Japan hogging hybrid parts. Welcome to the biggest steaming pile of bullshit you'll see today. Ford doesn't want to sell hybrids....they only make them to get the credit for the EPA mileage rating to offset their poor SUV numbers. They don't want to support them either in the future, which is why they disqualify them from sales, and make their price point 3k-5k higher than the non hybrid equivalent model. - Fiber-optic headaches. Anytime unskilled, untrained people dig in the ground is scary. - Catdrum. :) - Tiny Plaid Ninja's. "you spell honor like a brit!" - Ever wanted to build a sentry BB gun? Yes....yes you have. I know exactly where to put it. ED209 says "you have 10 seconds to comply".

Yesterday was an interesting day for me. We went to the DMV on my lunch break, so Jen could get her M class license, and coincidentally I had to renew mine before December. Things got weird then pretty quickly, took them forever to help Jen, and I was able to pass the vision test perfectly w/ out my glasses on. Now, I've never said I needed glasses before, but as I get old I get more and more dependant upon them. I already wear them 24x7 anyways. So I was finally going to confess my lies to the state of IL and have it put on my DL. So when I went up to the vision test, the guy asked me if I wanted to try it once first without them. Sure as shit I passed it completely. No idea how that happened. Then, on the way home, we stopped by Schaumburg Honda to pick up some parts that I had ordered. A replacement valve cover gasket (causing an oil leak, persumed from the 30k checkup they did) and brake pads for my front brakes. The cool part starts now. Since I've been having so many problems with the oil change they did on my car, they (Rob Hayward) comp'ed the price of the brake pads. Honestly, it's the first time I've walked out of there happy. Up until then i've never felt like really i wasn't getting screwed in some way, but it really put a positive spin on having to pick up the parts, and honestly it was just nice that the manager did it for me without my having to ask. Now I look forward to putting them this weekend. Got the procedure printed out from the service manual and Tim's gonna help me (he has jack stands...yay!). That should be fun.

Yesterday Jen passed her Motorcycle Rider's test with an almost perfect score (only one point taken off) and now she's a licensed motorcycle rider! The only down side is now, I have to give her back her motorcycle :)

I mention sometimes that Jen and I volunteer at a local food bank...but what exactly does that mean? Well I thought that some people might be interested in seeing what exactly goes on with all those canned goods and clothes being donated to the Katrina relief. Plus, I realized I've never taken a picture of anything there before... So the basics... the food bank is really a huge warehouse, just image a costco for smaller food banks and soup kitchens. Basically what we do is take donations from people, and large corporations (Jewel, Dominicks, General Mills, etc) of stuff they don't want anymore for whatever reason. You'd be surprised how much stuff stores just throw out to make shelf space for something else that will sell. So what we do is offer to go get it. They win because they save garbage fees for dumping, and we win because we can get it, clean it, and get it ready for other food banks to give out to needy people at a fraction of the price it would cost to buy. It's like a 10:1 ratio for value....very scary actually. Anyways, I digress. Once we have all this stuff it gets sorted into a lot of categories. Household, OTC, Cereal, Personal Care, Presort, Paper products, Cleaning supplies, Meat, Feminine Hygiene, Diapers, Baby, Snacks, Cookies, Candy, etc....I'm sure that's not all, but it's all I can remember off the top of my head. That's what a lot of the projects are on weekends, sort and presort these items down into the categories. Then you turn around and sort that categories depending on the exceptions. For example you might sort out all the cereal from a donation, then the next day a different group takes that presort, and sorts it down into 10# boxes while sanatizing w/ a bleach solution (depending on storage before donation), maching sure nothing has been exposed to air/mice and weeding out the wrong stuff (grits, cereal bars, hamburger helper, etc). That's just one project...but really you get the point. Past this, the stuff goes on pallets, and gets put into storage for the foodbanks to choose from. Another side project is FEMA standby supplies. Certain amounts of bottled water, dry storable foods, etc... As you can imagine all that stuff got consumed so quickly it's not funny. With everything that's been going on they've been shipping out everything practically not bolted to the floor. Anyways, pics....
Ken and Don in the presort room, usually this room is packed with double stacked pallets like you see in the corner:
Conveyer belt sort room, attached to the presort room:
These next pics are out in the warehouse:
Here's the area and group I was supervising yesterday. We were working on sorting all Katrina Donations into catagories.
You can see in that last pic, two different pallets. One deemed MRE (meal ready to eat) and the other called Heat and Eat (just add water). Just to show you the extra categories that have to be considered....trust me you don't want to know all the little nuances. And last but not least, the station after everyone left and the walkie-ridy I used that day. They're really great when dealing with heavy pallets (most MRE are canned foods...you have no idea how heavy that is) and especially when you have to go from end to end of the warehouse to get an empty lug.

Windows Vista Starter Edition
Windows Vista Home
Windows Vista Home Premium
Windows Vista Professional
Windows Vista Small Business Edition
Windows Vista Enterprise Edition
Windows Vista ULTIMATE Edition. oh dear god, shoot me now. Win 98a,b and c were bad enough. XP service packs were bad enough, but this is just farcical. Looks to me like they're trying to justify per componant pricing for whatever special bit of the OS you need. Need HDTV support? Pay more.
Need DVD burning ability? Pay more.
Want to supersize your fries? Pay more. It's just a freakin' joke to them really. They're all the same thing...just with the shiny bits either removed or added. I'd bitch more, but I have to go volunteer :( Apparently they ran short on supervisors and asked me if I'd come in. All you people who donate stuff for the hurricane, you have no idea....what a project it is to sort that stuff into usable categories.

I am so tired. A part of my job sometimes is to deploy new equipment in the field for testing, and also perform upgrades to some specific sites (known as pops). This morning was the culmination of a huge (well...large anyways) project in San Fransisco, CA...or as I like to call it SNFCCA. There was pretty much a two week timeframe to plan moving 25k + customers from 8 devices to 2 devices (larger capacity). This included getting the darn stuff and having it delivered/racked/powered/cabled/configured. There really is nothing quite as sucky as having to pull and route 11 /20's, not to mention moving the routes for the various /24's /23's, you name it it was there, for all the static customers. And then let's not forget the atm pvc provisioning for each of the 8 oc3's to the new line cards. And the last but not least all the scripts/databases/ etc....hell, I can't even reach the tftp server to weed out the dynamic routes from the dist routers because my tacacs isn't working right. I need a vacation, seriously, I've never said that before in my life, but I need some time off away from a computer before I either kill somebody or go mad. My eyes hurt all the time, my back is a mess, and for some reason my right index finger hurts (the scroll wheel and left click one). I think I'm slowly falling apart. In some good news, Jen's been getting ready for her Motorcycle class this friday. I took her out last night for a little practice in a local parking lot. You know the stopping, turning, stuff like that. She's really gotten a lot better lately since she got her motorcycle boots ;) I hope they start offering Bif Naked's lastest CD (Superbeautifulmonster) soon here in the US. I could also use some more Le Tigre but they haven't done any new stuff lately...maybe I should see about finding some more Moloko. only one link today, been to busy:
- The coolest VW camper you'll ever see. Check it out, it's like a freaking transformer towards the end.

I did some modification to the code that tracks visitors to this site yesterday with some real interesting results. Apparently, not everybody lands here on the main index page (i know....duh) but through various individual archived entries via google and such. So I modified the code to track those as well and the hit level on the couter just doubled...which is much more along like what I've been getting from the server side log reports. - Welcome to the Olive Garden, where your family...or two dysfunctional families. Unlimited bread stick and soup FIGHT!!!!! - Jeremy sent me an email earlier today with a link to this story. It's a first person account of one man's attempts to help after hurricane katrina. It is certainly a must read of one man's refusal to sit around doing nothing. - Want to see what happens when you throw an iPod Nano 50 ft in the air and drive over it with a car then take it apart? Well, boy howdy you're in luck! - Rocky Horror Picture Show in 30 seconds. Preformed by bunnies. Dammit Janet. - Winston's Lego Computer. It's not pretty, and it lacks a polished look....but for sheer fact of its creation it's cool. :)

Exactly one week and a day ago, Jen bought a new 2006 Ford Escape. Yesterday we took out the factory radio (audiophile 300, 6 CD in dash changer) and put in her JVC MP3 player. There are many reasons, but the major one was that it didn't play MP3 CD's...and there is no AUX input. Oh sure...there's an AUX button...but there's no simple way to interface to it. And anyone that uses an FM modulator is just despirate or dumb. Sorry, but they do suck.... It always shocks me how there is never enough information on the internet about simple little things like this. Perhaps I'm the only one interested in doing this stuff and documenting it for others to use. So here's a basic walkthrough (with pictures...oh amazing!) oh how to do it. Of course I'm assuming some things, like I don't have to tell you the right end of the screwdriver to hold and such. The real trick of the install was integrating the new stereo to the factory installed subwoofer and amp. Which, honestly, turned out to be pretty simple. Now, for the past few years, they used to call this setup the MACH system apparently, but now it's called the Audiophile 300. Either way, the real catch is the wiring harness size. I tried to find a local source, but neither Circuit City or Best Buy had any in stock. So I ordered it online from crutchfield.com. - Wiring harness
- Install kit
- DIN Tool Just for the hell of it (because I had a coupon that only counted over $50 bucks) I finally ordered a set of DIN tools. What do you do if you don't have them? Same thing I've been doing for the past 5 years....either 4 precision screwdrivers...or take a coat hanger and cut it up. Either way...here's a pic of the dash and back of the radio when I took it out. The middle pic is the din tools. Ok, now that that's out of the way, let's move on to the wiring harness. There's a few caveats about the secondary smaller harness (for the subwoofer).
1. Not all wires on it are used...only the top row. So the remote turn on lead for the bottom row (and the right RCA channel for that matter) isn't used.
2. Most after market radios put out 12v+ for the remote turn on lead. Now some tests with a multimeter told me that ford doesn't do that, they only use 6v+. So after calling crutchfield, they confirmed that it is occasionally an issue that causes "popping" when the radio turns on in the subwoofer. Um...no thanks. So the next step was to figure out what to do. Russ/Crutchfield said they do have a recommended procedure of using a 12 to 5v transister. I've also heard talk about just slapping a 1K resistor on it...but I decided to go with the sure bet simply because it is the best way to do it and for a 1.50 I can't really complain (besided I needed more heat shrink tubing from radio shack). So I bought a 12v to 5v transister from Radio Shack. Once I got it, I did some tests to make sure it was what I needed, and everything seemed to work out so I wired it up. In the pics Red = 12v +, Black = Ground, and Yellow = 5v +. Since that's been sorted out, everything else is basically match up the color's from the stereo to the wiring harness. God these things are so much simpler than back in the 90's. It's all so brainless now, it only took me 45 minutes to do the whole damn thing. Here's what I started out with:
And here's the final output:
One interesting thing about all my wiring is that I don't use crimps or solder. I don't believe, and never have that crimps work well, and solder...we'll i've soldered a lot in my life and have all different tools for doing it in car's and such. But i've found an easier way that I've been using for at least 5 years with not one single problem. I twist them, and shrink them. I take two wires, strip a 1/4" off them, hold them like an X with the center being where both wires meet the insulation. Then I twist them opposite directions around each other, and heat shrink when done. Let me show you:
Anyways, do it any way you choose....not like there's gonna be a lack of space in the dash. So the next step is slap the enclosure kit into the hole and install the radio. Honestly, it's a real freakin' tight fit...I had a bit of struggle with the top clips, but other than that it's simple. No screws or bolts really (aside from the one screw on the back guide rail. Couldn't be much simpler really...
There you have it, everything else is cake if you've ever installed a radio. The output looks like this: And there you have it. I found the subwoofer a little underpowered once I actually had a head unit in there capable of controlling it...but hey it works and Jen's happy now that she can listen to MP3's again.

It was only a matter of time before survivor stories started coming out of the New Orleans area. - Here's two people's account of the whole ordeal. It's quite an interesting read honestly. Assuming it's true, I think it really shows the lack of planning in the entire state for something that every claims to have seen coming. Why is it Florida, who get's hit with storms all the time, doesn't have this level of problems? I mean I understand that florida isn't under sea level, and open to flooding...but is that reason enough for the disparity? Seems to me that a 14 year old who spends his days playing Starcraft could have done a better job of managing resources than this. Make that a retarded, blind 14 year old. - Don't keep your cats on the patio of your 15th floor apartment jackass. - I think this Decepticon track jacket is cool....but it's at hot topic...and they won't let me in without an emo haircut, labret piercing and the approval of the mtv marketing department :( Damn, if only I was cool like good charlotte... Cleaned ralphie's cage yesterday...she/he's always so happy afterwards...it attracted the attention of some others:

There's been something we've been wanting to share for a while now, we've finally made a new addition to the family over the weekend. Jen bought a new car :) After much searching, researching, and visiting of dealerships, she was finally able to find the perfect set of features in a 2006 Ford Escape AWD. Yeah I'm not a big SUV fan, but coupled with my car we can really do a lot of things we normally couldn't (transport large items being number one). We ended up walking out for a little over 25k. It has a lot of features on it though. Power everything, 4 wheel drive, moon roof, yadda yadda....but I tell you. If anything can suck the will to life out of you it's sitting in a dealership all day. Of course when they try to dick you by sneaking in 6.9% financing and hiding it with a bullshit 500 dollar rebate (math time: you still end up paying 500 more over the life of the loan) that can kinda get old. Especially when "bob" (no i'm not making that up) says "whats 500 dollars anyways"....well you just kinda want to tell him to fuck off. But I digress....pictures....very large pictures.... Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go prepare to rip out the factory stereo...MUAHAHAHAHAA

I have been following the flooding in Louisiana more than I care to admit. I find the separation of society from it's creature comforts very fascinating. Add to the fact the notorious debauchery that occurs down there and you have a very simple question. Can people who live/enable others to live such a sinful life prove themselves worthy in a situation where instinct resorts to self preservation? To me, the answer has been no. I hate to say it, but it's fascinating to watch the social structure of the "best country in the world" crumble around itself because of some wind and rain. Here is probably the best article I've read about this whole clusterfuck called Katrina: The man-made disaster is the welfare state. What explains bands of thugs using a natural disaster as an excuse for an orgy of looting, armed robbery, and rape? What causes unruly mobs to storm the very buses that have arrived to evacuate them, causing the drivers to speed away, frightened for their lives? What causes people to attack the doctors trying to treat patients at the Superdome? Why are people responding to natural destruction by causing further destruction? Why are they attacking the people who are trying to help them? Hit the nail on the head. When your poor and don't care, then you don't respect anyone else caring for themselves or their items. I mean seriously...what else can you expect from an area where people go to flash their tits and pee in the streets? On a lighter note, you can hear Foamy the Squirrel's opinion on all of the over at newgrounds.

Last night on an NBC telethon, Kanye West made a very very big ass of himself: "George Bush doesn't care about black people." Click here to see a video of it...it's just simply amazing. Whether he's right or not, to take that moment to grandstand is just something that can't be excused. And poor Mike Meyers is just trying his best to keep going on with the actual teleprompter skit....here's a good article with the transcript.

I'm in a bad mood today, if you can avoid me I highly recommend it. I'm in a 0% bullshit tolerance mode right now. Here's some advice I consider wise. If you need some body's fucking help, don't bitch about how they're willing to do it. Did you get that? Write it the fuck down and memorize it. It's a fairly simple concept to follow I think, but constantly I'm not so much shocked, but unhappy to find that idiocy continues to ignore it. If you don't want to do it my way, then don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. Go find some other moron to help you for free you ungrateful *&#&$@#. And now for something completely different. I'm going to hell for this, but look closely at this NO picture of the flooding:
I got it from a site with a bunch of other pics. Proof that irony is ever present. Also, I just heard yesterday that they are finally releasing Fiona Apple's CD Extraordinary Machine after like 2 freakin' years of sitting on it. Fuck you Sony...fuck you with a rusty hammer you ingorant fools. They've been sitting on this CD since 2003 and now they're all trying to play it off like they haven't had it shoved up their asses for 2 years. Of course I've had it for months...it's really not bad at all. I'll buy it again of course when it's available to get an offical copy. Of course the leaked bootleg and this official release will be almost night and day I'm sure. They've reworked the production values due to a new producer. Of the eleven tracks previously leaked, two remain unchanged: "Extraordinary Machine" and "Waltz"; but nine are completely rearranged.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson was expected to arrive in Louisiana on Thursday to visit with evacuees forced into shelters by Hurricane Katrina and then to see the devastation the storm has wrought on New Orleans. Thank the fucking lord! Now all those people are saved and we can relax. Hey George...call off the national guard, Jesse's gonna get this one for us. Phewh! Just give him some hipwaders and a stick to push back all the dead bodies... Like flies to shit...man I tell you... There's an amazing company still running there despite the flooding. Here's a wired article on them. And the amazing thing is, he's updating his blog!
