Javid Gurbanov highlighted the projects implemented by Azerbaijan Railways and the tasks set ahead. He also hailed the great potential for increasing the efficiency of transportation, and mutual co-ordination on the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route.
The two sides also discussed the issues relating to cargo transportation between Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, and development prospects of the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route.


A 3,500-year-old clam garden has been discovered on British Columbia's Quadra Island. For generations, the traditional structure ensured a food source for large Indigenous populations living along the northern west coast. As Robin Gill reports, the ancient method of cultivation has a lot to teach us about the past, present and future.

Well it is starting to look like spring may be trying to come here in the Philadelphia area. Over the weekend we had some nice warm temps and things started to bud and turn green.
This month over at Stinkin' Inkers we are celebrating Earth Day or Arbor Day. I chose a very plain and simple design for this card.
I used an older stamp set from Stamplorations and various green inks.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will join us by linking up your card over on the Stinkin Inkers blog.
I am on the Design Team for the Stinkin' Inkers Monthly Challenges. This month's challenge is called "Tag It". Use a tag in your project or create a tag.
I am a shipper for Send A Smile 4 Kids. You can check them out either on their site or my page at the top of this blog post (I am more specific to the needs of the hospitals I ship to). I am drawn to cute, fun, kid friendly cards. The kids and their families are surrounded by not feeling well due to chemo, tired all the time, traveling, staying at places that is not home, not being able to eat or keep things down, etc.
I have had feedback from the hospitals I ship to and the kids love the tags because they can hang them on their bulletin boards, use them as book marks, hang them on their door knobs, etc. I really think they like the fun ribbons attached to the tags.
The current challenge over at Tuesday Throwdown is Embossing. In my card today I used an old embossing folder which I use over and over again. I don't even know if it is still available nor do I care (Darice Heart Background).
This is one of those challenges which made me think outside the box. Embossing folders front and center is my theme here. The frames I created with Simon Says Stamp Rectangles in black, pink and white (saving the white frame for a later project).
I attached the black frame to a white card base, then attached the pink (MFT) frame and then the white embossed element. I heat embossed in white the friendship is love from the Hero Arts January kit with Tim Holtz detail white embossing powder and die cut the hearts from the Stamps of Life.
I wanted to showcase how to use EVERYTHING you have in your aresenal both old and new to create a beautiful card.
Be Blessed and thanks for stopping by.
The first challenge of the New Year is up on Sinkin' Inkers. The theme is "new". I chose to Congratulate a family who received a new puppy.
For this card I used elements from different stamp sets. I made my own doghouse out of papers from my stash. The background was created using a cloud stencil.
Thanks for dropping by and make sure you check out Stinkin' Inkers challenge this month and I hope you will play along.
The current challenge (December) over at the Stinkin' Inkers Challenge Blog is anything Winter.
This was created using the Reveal Wheel die from Lawn Fawn. The images are from Verve Stamps (store closed) and the lamppost is from My Monthly Hero. Below are snap shots showing the snow flake changing colors when you move the arrow.
I hope you have been inspired to enter the current challenge at Stinkin' Inkers.
The current challenge over at SAS4KIDS is Winter Fun 4 Kids or Anything Goes 4 Kids. I made this card a few weeks ago.
This is a center step fold card (the first one for me). All of the elements are from Hero Arts. I created the background using Distress Oxide Inks. I stamped all of the elements, colored them with Copics added a little Wink of Stella to the tree and the skates, and then die cut them out. Had to add the bling, the stars (just because).
This card is going off to one of the three hospitals I ship to tomorrow, for Send A Smile 4 Kids.
I would also like to participate in the Sparkles Christmas Challenge which is fancy folds.
The stamp set is from Scrapping for Less. I added the bling for the Twisted Sister tease to add sprinkles (any kind of sparkly).
I will also be joining in the challenge over at Use Your Stuff which is also part of the Double Trouble Challenge and I used their photo as inspiration for my card.
The challenge over at Cards In Envy is Santa Baby, so I will be joining them in their challenge as well.
I love all things plaid at Christmas – I don't have any in my Christmas decor but I love seeing it! This week's inspiration over at Tuesday Throwdown is a photo inspiration challenge. Here is my card.
My eyes were immediately drawn to the large plaid throw pillows (my background paper) and the Merry Christmas on the bed pillow in the front (my sentiment). To incorporate a little green (from the wreath on the wall), I used an ornament stamp (stamped in green and silver). I added some bling. Except for the stamp, all of the elements on this card are from a great prize I won over at Double Trouble (very fun challenge).
I would like to participate in Sweet Stampin' Christmas, Crafting By Design (Christmas), The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge.
Tuesday Throwdown is challenging us this week to follow their recipe of using two embossing folders, one image and a sentiment.
Here is what I "cooked" up.
For this card I used SSS Mandy's Flowers, Darice Large Petal Embossing Folder (embossed), Cuttlebug Floral Fantasy Embossing Folder (debossed), Pan Pastels, Copics and Prismacolor Pencils.

The Warriors is a 1979 American action thriller film directed by Walter Hill and based on Sol Yurick's 1965 novel of the same name. This novel was, in turn, based on Xenophon's Anabasis. The story centers on a New York City gang who must make an urban journey of 30 miles (48 km), from the north end of The Bronx to their home turf in Coney Island in southern Brooklyn, after they are framed for the murder of a respected gang leader.

Firm Helps Sponsor Honor Flight Program Bringing Veterans to Washington, D.C.
Langdon & Emison sponsored a group of World War II veterans who traveled to to Washington, D.C., recently, to visit those memorials dedicated to honor their service and sacrifices. This event was part of Honor Flight Kansas City, which is part of the Honor Flight Network.
The organization's mission is "helping every single veteran in America, willing and able of getting on a plane or a bus, visit their World War II memorial." Top priority is given to America's most senior heroes — survivors of World War II and any veteran with a terminal illness who wishes to visit their memorial. The photo at right was taken of five veterans who were sponsored in part by Langdon & Emison. That group effort was coordinated by Operation Rush, which stands for "Runners for Unsung Heroes." That group of Kansas City area individuals raised an impressive $40,000 for Honor Flight.
In future years, Honor Flight will transition to Korean War, Vietnam War and all other veterans who served, on a chronological basis. The firm was honored to be a small part of this great cause, reconnecting some of America's heroes with the memorials in our nation's capital dedicated to their service.

Houstonian, HBCU grad shares heart stories on campuses at homecoming celebrations
Her Story = Her Mental Well-being
Photo caption: l-r, Alisha Brumfield, book cover illustrator and author, Micole Williams
[HOUSTON, TX] September 19, 2019 — Home, not only a building, but the feeling of wholeness, is where the heart is. A Houston author believes "storytelling" has healing properties for readers and writers. Through 7 herstories, her characters represent women from various walks of Houston, overcoming and learning a thing or two about love. The novel, "Tangled Web of True Love Tales" is a story about passionate college graduates navigating and adulting while trying to find their true selves and true love in the process. With the 2nd Annual Lit for Life Book Tour, featuring Micole Williams, women's stories are front-and-center, and the conversation on wellness continues, through fiction.
Williams, now as a publisher through her company, Eclectically You Experience, is scheduled to appear at a selection of college campuses on her 2nd Annual Lit For Life Book Tour to share these stories of college life, overcoming adulting struggles and how TRUE love wins. The next leg of her tour is from 6-8 p.m. on Sept. 28 at MUZE at 8990 Kirby Drive as a featured author at the upcoming Houston Association of Black Journalists (HABJ) Beyond the Lens event.
Back in 2004, as a junior at Prairie View A & M University, the mass communications major/ English minor, balanced a heavy load: classes, Radio One internships, campus radio/TV and live hosting gigs, sorority life, friendships and family. Closer to graduation, Williams was beyond overwhelmed and anxious about the future. Stress management came in the form of church, yoga and … writing. During AfroLit and FilmWriting classes, Williams found a story forming in her heart: one set in her hometown and one that would take on a satirical approach to serious issues she saw affecting women like herself. In various classes and with friends, she learned that sharing stories was healing. She started writing her first novel as a way to cope with millennial life. It was a creative way to celebrate womanhood AND to examine the things that make women go crazy. Through research, she found that loaded schedules, past trauma and the wrong men were at the top of the list.
Graduating in 2005, she found herself struggling with a quarter-life crisis and trying to find her way. After working in the real world for 4 years, she knew something was missing: she had to return to a labor of love. "Tangled Web of True Love Tales" was published in 2009 and was a saving grace. "Tangled Web of True Love Tales: Ten Year Anniversary Special Edition" was re-released August 2019 with a new cover, and bonus material: Author Q & A and Book Club Discussion questions.
Micole Williams is an eclectic force: a teacher by profession, writer by heart, and creative director by nature. She finds inspiration all around and storytells for a living. The native Houston, Texan started her writing and teaching career over 10 years ago with a goal to bring social and relational issues to the forefront in a fun, yet thought-provoking way. With her nationally-featured books, Williams has more creative directed workshops, coaching series and upcoming books scheduled for the near future.

Former French president Charles de Gaulle once famously complained about the difficulty of governing a country that had 246 different kinds of cheese. In the time since that statement was made, life for both societies and enterprises has become even more complicated, and the hardship of ruling diversity, illustrated by this "cheese analogy," has grown exponentially.
Just ask Boeing's director of business capabilities integration at the Commercial Airplanes division, Brian Chiesi; he knows.
The US aircraft manufacturer has about 2,500 different applications, which are in use by around 40,000 engineers, in its PLM and business software arsenal, Chiesi said in today's PLM TV News report.
That's a lot by any standard, and the challenges to create effective product realization processes out of this multiplicity of applications is a tough task. This is a challenge which Boeing shares with Europe's Airbus, the latter of which has around the same number of software applications, and 60,000 engineers.
"Currently, we're a bit encumbered with the customizations that we've put in place. We're also encumbered with the proprietary data standards that are used inside those systems. So today, for us to incorporate new technology and capabilities becomes a very hard integration activity," said Brian Chiesi, engineering director at aircraft manufacturer at Boeing, in today's TV report.
With this statement, Romare touched on what turns out to be a common theme for all the big global enterprises of today – PLM obsolescence. As the dream of one big PLM system that can manage all aspects of product development is slowly fading away, many of today's problems are about integration and interaction, especially in light of new technologies and platforms that seem to offer an endless stream of opportunities. But behind the corner of progress lurks a diversity problem that includes a number of issues. One of these is obsolescence, which was the main topic of PDT Europe in Paris.
In today's TV report, I spoke on this topic with a number of big league players, including Boeing, Airbus and Microsoft, as well as analysts and software developers, among them Eurostep Group's CEO and PDT organizer, Håkan Kårdén.
Design review session at aircraft manufacturer Boeing.
"Obsolescence in the context of IT and PLM means that solutions and software have become old and too expensive to run, or you have a combination of old things but you really want to have benefits of all the new cool stuff that has been developed," asserts Kårdén.
Research from analyst firm CIMdata shows that this is not a minor problem. On the contrary, CIMdata's president, Peter Bilello, claimed that this is something that industrial organizations are struggling with to an increasing extent.
OBSOLESCENCE IS A PROBLEM. Analyst firm CIMdata's Peter Bilello: "Enterprises must proactively manage software obsolescence, since it is critical for long-term success," he said during a presentation at the PDT Europe event in Paris, France.
His general conclusion is that enterprises must proactively manage software obsolescence, because it is critical for long-term success.
"The latter is also imperative for solution providers who need to ensure that they can architect solutions on PLM platforms that maximize long-term sustainability. The solution sets they have must be sustainable, upgradable, maintainable and configurable," Bilello added.
It is somewhat paradoxical that these aviation leaders have ended up in a position where obsolescence is a problem.
Traditionally, the aerospace industry is regarded as one of the sharpest in terms of cutting-edge digital product development technology. Companies such as Boeing and Airbus are considered to hold the top rankings when it comes to advanced digital product development. They were the early adopters, and it is within their development departments that the world's sharpest software development tools have first been put into production. However, the growth of these organizations -- to today's 40,000 to 60,000 engineers and product developers has created a certain sluggishness in their ability to move fast and react quickly to new technologies.
AIRBUS 380 IN CATIA. Airbus uses Dassault's CATIA V5 in their CAD design. PTC's PDM solution Windchill serves as the main technological backbone.
Naturally, all of these are things both Boeing and Airbus are working hard on. These companies need to figure out how to adapt their huge product realization organizations in order to embrace and utilize disruptive technologies such as cloud, IoT, M2M, 3D printing, mobility, and virtual and augmented reality solutions. Though Airbus and Boeing are tough competitors, it is equally clear that in these endeavors both face similar problems and opportunities, obsolescence challenges included.
"Both of them have been around for a long time. They have thousands of applications, and I'm sure that they want to close down many of these," asserted Håkan Kårdén. But generally, they are stuck with these applications, and need to have a plan for fading these solutions out.
PLM TV News host, Verdi Ogewell, interviewed PDT organizer and Eurostep Group's CEO, Håkan Kårdén.
However, it's not easy to combine the new stuff with the old software and access to legacy data. A well thought-out and validated plan is needed to accomplish this, as well as the realization that standards such as the PLCS, the AP protocol, and JT are tools that can help.
"This means that we surely try to use the modern digital technologies that are emerging: big data, analytics in general, IoT, virtual and augmented reality and cloud solutions, to make sure we have quick deployment on the infrastructure. But it has to be done carefully," explained Anders Romare of Airbus.
So interoperability and openness are key, and Airbus' Anders Romare is clear about the strategy they have to meet the harmonization requirements on the one hand, and the need to integrate new technologies on the other.
Basically, Airbus uses PTC's Windchill as its PDM backbone, Aras PLM for supplier collaboration and Dassault Systèmes' CATIA for CAD. SAP is the solution on the ERP side (MES, Manufacturing Execution Systems).
Boeing Commercial Airplanes is also a CATIA user, but differs in the choice of PDM. Here, Dassault's ENOVIA serves as the basic system in the 787 model program, with Siemens PLM's Teamcenter in the other programs. Everything for ERP is completed by Baan.
As two of the world's largest consumers of PLM-related software, these aircraft manufacturers are extremely attractive as customers to Dassault, Siemens, PTC and others, which makes them a competitive battle ground for PLM vendors. And as always when there is a sharp competitive element involved, it creates a fierce downward price pressure. I have heard of price levels involving reductions of 60 to 90 percent.
But lower prices aren't the only advantage for customers on this level. The technological capabilities of the software platforms can be impacted when decision makers such as Anders Romare and Boeing's Brian Chiesi speak with Bernard Charles (CEO at Dassault), Tony Hemmelgarn (CEO at Siemens PLM), Jim Heppelmann (CEO at PTC) and their peers in other PLM and ERP developers, and when these developers listen very carefully.
In today's PLM TV News report, both Romare and Chiesi have critical views on data formats and how some vendors tend to lock-in data in their system. This hampers availability, limits accessibility and contributes to slower workflows, thereby prolonging the time-to-market.
"That's the way it is," explains Brian Chiesi. "Currently we're a bit encumbered with the customizations that we've put in place, and we're also encumbered with the proprietary data standards that are used inside those systems. So today, for us to incorporate new technology and capabilities becomes a very hard integration activity." This means it takes a lot of time and effort to make sure that the integration happens in a way that doesn't break the existing system.
WIREFRAME ILLUSTRATION OF BOEING'S DREAMLINER. The 787 Dreamliner was designed in Dassault Systèmes' CAx software CATIA V5. In this model program, Boeing used Dassault's ENOVIA as the product data backbone. In other programs, Siemens PLM's Teamcenter serves the same purpose.
Can standards generally help to solve these problems? Standards are fine, Chiesi says, but doesn't necessary represent a miracle cure.
Generally, however, said Chiesi, these standards are going to mean a lot when the company will create its own solutions to meet needs such as more efficient workflows and integration of new technologies.
An interesting fact is that Airbus' Anders Romare, in many cases, reasons along the same lines as Chiesi.
Romare explains in the PLM TV News report that many of Boeing's problems and challenges are reflected in the European aerospace giant's PLM and ERP environment. Diversity is, and has always been, characteristic of the company's IT landscape.
MANUFACTURING AT AIRBUS. Production of Airbus' A330 model in Toulouse, France.
We are talking about the digital transformation in general, in which this is a very important trend. How does this trend affect PLM?
As true as this statement is, there are much more dynamic effects following in the footsteps of democratized data. If you make data accessible to everyone, it can have an exponential effect on innovation.
"I believe strongly that innovation comes through intersections – the sections of competence and people from different disciplines. When you make data broadly available, you can pull together teams from various disciplines, and then you might really see true innovation happening. You can really see an exponential innovation capability or growth of innovations," said Romare.
To achieve this, collaboration is extremely important. But the environment of collaboration has often been a problem, which in turn is one of the reasons for Airbus' investment in Aras PLM during 2015.
SUPPLIER COLLABORATION IN FOCUS. "We have tested and proven the Aras solutions with good results, flexibility and quick turnaround time to develop and deploy applications," said Airbus' Romare.
We spoke about Aras PLM above. Why did Airbus invest in this system? They already had a PLM system (Windchill), and it may sound a bit strange to buy yet another solution.
But Romare says that Aras was bought to improve supplier collaboration.
MICROSOFT PLAYS A LEADING ROLE in the IT landscape primarily as infrastructure providers; however, they have expanded their capabilities during the last decade, and today Microsoft is one the most important drivers regarding almost all aspects of the ongoing digitalization process, asserted Microsoft's Simon Floyd, Worldwide Industry Lead, Manufacturing Practice.
The bottom line is that it's evident both companies–Airbus and Boeing–have issues with silos and the creation of smooth working flows between different systems.
How does this affect the obsolescence factor? How can standards help? What will happen in terms of the 50, 70 or even 100 years that data integrity needs to be maintained in the aerospace industry? What about the situation regarding standards in the automotive industry?
Join us to take a closer look at risks and opportunities in this context.

12 of the best agriturismo in Tuscany
by Peter Smith | Published December 20, 2019
Formed by smooth slopes and varicoloured fields, the countryside of Tuscany is no less attractive than its art towns. Agriturismos are the best way to experience both, as the region is scattered with traditional farmhouses providing all one needs for a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. Here, the rural lifestyle can feature anything from woodland walks to olive picking and learning the local cuisine, in close proximity to the region's many cultural landmarks.
Marrucheti 82
From €100/ night
A family business dedicated to organic farming, Marrucheti 82 offers a handful of accommodations for intimate and cosy stays in the south of Tuscany. Three of its apartments are located in a converted warehouse, and those looking for a more secluded option can opt for the separated suite. A room with independent access is also available. In addition to hosting wine and food tastings, the farm produces vegetables, honey and extra-virgin olive oil. An infinity swimming pool comes with a view over the valley to the south, while nearby attractions include the Roselle Archaeological Area and Maremma Natural Park.
Book at Booking.com
Agriturismo Bagnolo
From €80/ night
This family-run farm stretches over 500 acres of land where sheep, pigs and courtyard animals are kept according to traditional ways. Guests can visit the farm and even get involved in the daily duties, such as the making of the flagship local cheese, pecorino di Pienza. Other cheeses, salumi, and olive oil are also produced in house, the latter best enjoyed in Autumn just after the olive harvest. Three apartments and two rooms are available, and stays of a week or more include a guided tour of the cheese-making cycle. Only 5km away, the small town of Pienza is a Renaissance idyll of architectural harmony and urban space.
Azienda Agricola Della Mezzaluna
Agriturismo Della Mezzaluna takes nature retreats to the next level by accommodating guests in renovated vintage caravans, surrounded by an olive tree grove. Two Hungarian caravans from the early-1900s provide an intimate and elegant setting for two people, while a more spacious option is available for up to four guests. The farm is populated by donkeys, courtyard animals, fruit trees, gardens, woodland and vineyards, making fresh produce and eggs always available. Olive oil, wine and jams are also homemade. A saltwater pool and a veranda equipped for cooking are the main communal areas.
Nocini di Maremma
Nocini di Maremma is a restored medieval hamlet which was once part of the feud of Tatti, a nearby village. Its centrepiece is an ancient oven, dating back over a hundred years and still used to make pizza, flatbread and the like. No less fascinating, the surrounding landscape provides views over the Alta Maremma region, ranging all the way from the hills to the sea. The coast is less than 40km away, while the nearby attractions include medieval landmarks such as Massa Marittima, Montemassi and the San Galgano Abbey. The agriturismo offers three double rooms and a twin.
Agriturismo Sardi Giustiniani
Hailing from a long-established family business, Fattoria Sardi is run by a young couple producing wine through organic grapes and sustainable methods. Unusually for Tuscany, the core of the production are rosé wines, which enjoy the favourable influence of the Northern Tyrrhenian Sea. Reds and whites are also produced, and the whole range can be discovered while visiting the cellar. The agriturismo offers seven apartments sleeping up to six people, located next to a swimming pool and surrounded by woods, olive trees, meadows and farmland. Agriturismo Sardi Giustiniani is 5km away from Lucca and 40km from the nearest beach.
Fattoria Voltrona
Fattoria Voltrona opened 35 years ago to become one of Tuscany's first agriturismos. Vineyards, olive trees and other crops stretch across its 100 acres of land, also patched with lush gardens and meadows. Icelandic horses run free in a large paddock, and horse rides are available to experts and beginners alike. Dinnertime is not only an occasion to experience the farm's homemade cuisine, but also a convivial ritual in keeping with the local traditions. The activities range from lake fishing to truffle hunting, while two swimming pools are open from early May to late October.
Fattoria di Maiano
Fattoria di Maiano offers rooms and apartments where modern comforts meet classic style and country design. This agriturismo boasts an English-style botanic garden formed by an educational farm, a tea house, an ancient tower turned luxury suite, and a Romantic park inaugurated by Queen Victoria in 1893. Barbecue, trekking, a panoramic swimming pool and an oil mill open to visitors are some of the local amenities and activities. Driven by seasonality and sustainability, Lo Spaccio restaurant is where to sample the farm's own products.
Il Poderaccio
Agriturismo Il Poderaccio is housed in an eco-friendly farmstead surrounded by the olive trees and farmland of the Scandicci hill. It offers four apartments with views over Florence (located just 10km away), as well as a smaller 25 square metre studio looking out over the mountain. All accommodations come equipped with a kitchen area, while some have direct access to the farmstead's large terrace. A barbecue, wood oven and swimming pool (open from June to October) are among the amenities provided.

Succession Planning is as Easy as 1, 2, 3……..or is it?
Your father started this machine shop. You remember being allowed to go to work with him sometimes when you were barely tall enough to see what was on the tables. "Don't touch anything," he would admonish. And you would keep a distance, all the while itching to get your hands on the tools and machinery.
Later, you would spend time after school, on weekends and in the summer working at your father's shop. You geared your education toward technical classes so that you could make incremental improvements to your Dad's legacy. And, when the time came for him to retire, you took over the business and grew it from a small, three or four person shop to managing 30 or more employees at a time. You have seen the shop through good times and bad. Now it is time for you to retire and pass it to the next generation. Maybe.

Tucked in one of HKV's lanes, Studio SQ1 is a basement full of beautiful ceramics, handloom saris and edgy furniture pieces. The space itself is stunning and could easily make the cut for a bigshot home decor magazine's set. Best part? Their stuff isn't as pricey as you'd think!
Scroll through Studio SQ1's Instagram feed and you'll fall in love (especially if you're someone who loves minimalism and earthy colours). Their feed's what got us to leave early from work and check out the space.
Studio SQ1 is a basement studio in the Kunzum Travel Cafe lane that has been around for more than a year. It's a multi-designer store that's got Maheshwari handloom saris, modern furniture pieces and more home decor from various designers across the country (like Maati, Mitre bow ties, Mangalam and more). Most of what's displayed in the store includes the works of Studio SQ1's four partners – Melvin Josy (graphic designer + interior products), Anumita Jain (ceramist + designer), Gaurav Chaudhary (textiles) and Bupesh Seethala (interior designer).
One of our favourite things about this studio is that since almost everything's handmade here, no two pieces are alike. Plus, they're more than happy to customise everything. So, if you want to buy this rustic charcoal dinner set, but would like it better in a brighter blue tone or in a certain shape, it can be done.
At the moment though, we're eyeing this cool housefly lamp, the lovely ceramic glasses we saw at their studio and we'd happily gift one of Gaurav's handloom saris to all the sari-loving ladies at home.
When you enter a space like Studio SQ1, you'd expect everything to be super expensive but it's actually reasonably priced. The handloom saris start at about INR 2,000, ceramics at INR 700 and furniture prices can vary depending upon your customisation requirements (the orange chair we saw is for about INR 30K; Urm.. we'll stick to the saris then).
Check out their Facebook page and follow them on Instagram too.


213k. 3rd owner. 2wd/rwd. Needs work. Trailer away. Clean title.
Open to reasonable offers. Sick of mowing around it.
How much are you paying someone to haul it off?
Can you expand on "needs work"?
When the batteries are charged, it'll run. Been through a few injector driver boxes in the past. Needs a RF steel brake line. Parked since 08 or 09?
Man, I wish I was closer. That would be an awesome replacement for my Dakota.
Any estimate of approximately how much you would like to get for it? I have been looking for a tow rig.
No offense taken. I can ignore as good as anyone else.
I know it's probably worth more but a 10 year parked diesel is gonna take some time and money to bring back to life. Would $1,000 be enough to induce you to part ways with it?
Damn you jumped my $501 offer.
Guys, running, this has to be a $5k truck. Well, cleaned up and the interior looking as good as the exterior. Brake lines are a common problem on these and the next generation. I don't think 2k is too bad. Just my 2c.
Not to horn in, or hijack, but my 93 IDI NA, 4x4 supercab long bed, will be up for sale in a month or 2.
Sitting 8-9 years scares me a bit, since diesel doesn't weather well.
I once had a company truck that was the same thing except for a 460 gas engine and a 1986 model and that thing would beat the stuffing out of you. Granted, it would pull anything you hitched to it.
The 91-97 are a little better for ride, just like the 99-03 is a step up. The biggest concern on the PSD would the the injectors. On that one I would upgrade anyway and replace the glow plugs and harness/valve cover gaskets anyway.
The 91-97 are a little better for ride, just like the 99-03 is a step up.
They still ride like trucks, though. They just don't destroy your kidneys.
I worry about my fillings too. I have a bunch of them.

Parents are expected to set the standard of exemplary sportsmanship at all times especially while attending games/matches, and when discussing Notre Dame Prep athletics with others and at home.
Because of the nature of athletic competition, parents can be detrimental to a student's development when they become too involved as aggressive spectators and /or when they as self-appointed player "agents" or when they become "bleacher coaches" who choose to publicly second guess coaches' decisions. Parents can also be susceptible to the temptation to blame the coach for poor play or lack of performance by their student athlete or the team. When these types of behaviors occur, the child of these parents may feel excused for his/her effort, or lack thereof, and poor attitudes toward the coach and the team may develop as a result.
Parents need to trust the school and coach as partners in the Catholic education and development of their child.
Coaches are certainly fallible people who will make mistakes at times. However, there must be a trust that the coach is doing everything that he/she can to help their child in their development as athletes and young adults. Mutual trust, respect and encouragement among coaches, players and parents will result in top quality programs. This is not to say that the parents of a student/athlete should remain silent if a problem arises.
As with teachers, parents should feel free to have open, constructive discussions with the coach on issues pertaining to their child.
Parents should expect that the coach will respond with honesty, respect and mutual concern for the well-being of their child.
Parents are advised not to discuss playing time with the coach, but to have their child initiate the conversation.
Parents should not contact the coach in the "heat of the moment" but, rather, should wait, at least overnight, until emotions have cooled.
Parents should use discretion and restraint when determining whether to bring a concern forward to a coach.
In all such cases, the Communication Procedures that follow should be employed.
Parents and all those involved in their roles as spectators should understand their responsibilities to be encouragers of the team, supporters of the school and most importantly, representatives of Christ.
Spectators should remember that school athletics are learning experiences for the students and that mistakes are sometimes made.
Athletes from all sports should be praised in their attempts to improve themselves as athletes and as people. In addition, appreciation for outstanding play by either team should be shown.
More specifically, spectators should be aware that it is a privilege to observe the game/match. Respect should be shown to the opposing players, coaches, spectators and support groups. Treat them as our guests.
Game officials and umpires should be treated with respect. Understand that they, like you, are fallible and are doing their best to promote the student athlete. Admire their willingness to participate in full view of the public and be eager to accept their authority.
Communication Procedures
The Notre Dame Prep Athletic Department is committed to communicating the goals and objectives of the athletic program, eligibility rules and expectations of our athletes. If more information is required or should a concern arise during an athletic season, the procedure listed below should be followed:
The student athlete should advocate for themselves and speak directly with his or her coach.
If further clarification is required the parent should then contact the coach for a meeting with the player and parents. No meeting will take place without the student athlete in the room. (it is advised that no contact between parent and coach be made until, at least, the day after the incident/event in question – ( 24 hour rule)
If the issue remains unresolved, the parent should then communicate his/her concerns with to the athletic director.

Gym Party will make you question your life. Chris (Christopher Brett Bailey), Jess (Jessica Latowicki) and Jen (Jenna Watt) battle it out in this fierce and feisty, neon-lit popularity contest that plays upon our natural evolutionary drive to win.
Chris, Jess and Jen are losers (the stereotypical kind with nosebleeds) but they want to be winners. Gym Party exposes the dark depths of the universal desire to be the best and to be better than others in a game-show set up that starts off as fun and games with rounds such as 'Who can eat the most little oranges?' and 'Who can catch the most Skittles thrown by an audience member' with the contestants professing their love for one another and their sickly sweet ability to share everything.
The battle quickly becomes personal. In the next round the audience are asked to vote for one of the contestants in answer to increasingly sinister questions 'Who is best looking?', 'Who has never cheated on a partner?' and finally 'If you could only save one from certain death, who would it be?' We don't really know Chris, Jess or Jen but must judge them and, to our shock, we realise we have been doing all along. Such is the nature of Gym Party's clever and scathing social commentary.
The most uncomfortable scene is the losers' punishments. Their flaws are pointed out and publicly criticised before they are made to smile – a fate that is surely everyone's worst nightmare. The message of Gym Party is to be the best that you can be. If that is better than others then that's great but if not then that's ok too. Idealistic? Certainly, but Gym Party's stylish and quirky lesson in self-acceptance is one that everyone needs to see and learn.

Q: vmdk (Normal, Inaccessible): having to repair invalid header too often My situation
I am using Virtual Box to create a virtual machine with Arch Linux installed. I use the virtual machine for my own projects: I have all my projects data in this virtual machine so I easily can change from OS or physical computer and instantly have all data available. In this virtual machine, I have installed GitLab, a backup system, SMTP, and Samba, among others.
The virtual machine has two SATA virtual hard drives:

*

*8 GB dynamic vmdk hard drive split into 2 GB files where the OS is installed.

*2 TB dynamic vmdk hard drive split into 2 GB files where all my projects data is saved.
Whether I use my Ubuntu to work with the virtual machine, accessing my files from samba, everything is performing perfectly. The problem comes when I use Windows, after shutting down my machine properly (see bash command for this below) the odds are I get a vmdk header corrupted. Two out of three times I try to shutdown this problem appears in Windows, I didn't experienced the problem In Ubuntu yet.
This is the command I use for shutting down my Arch, safe_shutdown.sh:
systemctl stop smbd
umount /mnt/projects
systemctl poweroff

Forced to use the repairing tool too often
I've tried to shut down the machine from VirtualBox, to only use systemctl poweroff, to use ACPI shutdown, to close all processes from task manager, to disconnect samba mapped network drive before shutdown, ... everything. It all result in the same, having my a vmdk header corrupted and having to use the repairing tool:
vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -R projects.vmdk

This tool always says me that has found problems in the disk and all have been repaired. After this the machine works again without major problems, sometimes I find a corrupt file when hashing for consistency and I have to use my backups to restore those files.
Desesperation
I do not really know what to do now. Should I try to move my data to another virtual hard drive format? Resize my virtual hard drive? What logs should I look for?
My details
On Windows I use the 5.1.2 r108956 VirtualBox version.
Virtual Box error
Could not open them medium '[projects.vmdk]` VMDK: inconsistency between grain
table and backup grain table in '[projects.vmdk]' (VERR_VD_VMDK_INVALID_HEADER).

Virtual Box Logs
Since I always repair my machine just after getting the error because I need to use my data constantly I can not provide only the last log but all of them. I have uploaded them to a Google Drive folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzoIZrf3afiGRHo0Y2U5c19OdEE?usp=sharing
Samba Configuration
[projects]
   comment = projects folder
   path = /mnt/projects
   available = yes
   guest ok = no
   read only = no
   writable = yes
   valid users = archuser
   write list = archuser
   browseable = yes
   create mask = 0600
   directory mask = 0700
   public = yes
