 Ziehl (Cruel Intentions 3) and produced by Yoram Pelman (Confessions of an American Girl).
I cannot vouch for the quality of ''Road House 2,'' but I am among the many who love -- for reasons past all understanding -- the original ''Road House,'' the action film starring Patrick Swayze. Besides, since I already have ''Road House'' on DVD, there is no reason for me to covet the direct-to-DVD sequel (which does not star Swayze) except for the sake of weird comparisons.
Also because The Bride might like it.
The announcement from Sony is well-timed, since the bride's birthday is on Tuesday. (It would be far better timed if the DVD was coming out tomorrow, instead of in July.) And, as I prepare to help her celebrate, the announcement reminds me of one reason -- out of many -- why we have bonded so closely. We both love big, dumb action movies.
This is a woman who, when we flew into Las Vegas, understood why the view would make me think of ''Con Air.'' Who will sit through ''Die Hard'' and its sequels -- more than once. Whose Christmas list once included a ''Lethal Weapon'' box set.
''Lethal Weapon'' has been retired from gift lists because, of course, we got it for her. When you find a woman who likes movies in the style of ''Lethal Weapon,'' let alone ''Road House,'' you not only cherish her, you try to grant her every wish. And I expect to keep doing so for as many years as she will have birthdays.

I hope that this June edition finds you well and managing to keep warm. The coming of winter signals a quieter period in the world of the motoring enthusiast. However, the last few weeks have seen a strong presence of Club members at various events throughout the state....I always take great pride in knowing that the Club banner is on display and that members are out and about enjoying their Holden's. At a time when the local industry is under so much pressure its crucial that our heritage is on display and also on the road!!!
At the May MGM we were once again fortunate to welcome John Fenner as our guest speaker. As Holden enthusiasts it's a privilege to speak with people who have spent their working lives within the Holden family. John started at GM-H as a 16 year old and went on to qualify as an engineer....he spent most of his time at Fishermans Bend before moving across to Dandenong as Plant manager.......he was at Dandenong until the factory was eventually closed for the second and final time......a most historic period indeed! John is an automotive enthusiast who enjoys his Land Rovers and is an active member of the Jaguar Club and is currently restoring a XK120, he is often to be seen at events that we support and is always up for a chat. John has been kind enough to donate several items to the Club and, while I appreciate his generosity, it's his time which I value most. "Lions Pride" is most fortunate to have an association with both John and Leo who give freely of their time and just love to talk cars.
As recently advised the Club's AGM will be held at the "Mulgrave Community Centre" on Sat. 13th. July, besides a committee election there will be an auction that has traditionally been our annual fundraiser. Any automotive memorabilia or objects of interest which you could donate or put a reserve on would be most greatly appreciated. This event is always a great night so make sure you get along dressed as a pirate and get into the spirit of the occasion. I ask all of you to keep this night free as your vote is important in choosing the new committee. Four members of the current committee will not be standing for reelection.......it's a time of great change for "Lions Pride" and I ask all you to consider helping this great Club by nominating for a position.......its your time to finally DO SOMETHING about the future.Reading postive comment here with regards to the above so want to try some, now I have just updated my efusion with Evolv's.ecig settings and now have a profile SS304..... Where to get some? Steath don't seem to sell it....also can this stuff be dry burnt, my only negative with NI200 over kanthel, well that and clone posts cutting the stuff....This might solve both?
Edit...also what's a middle ground gauge for both single and duel?
Edit again.... This?
It dry burns well, I am using the 317L stuff. I just experimented with mine on the Xcube (wouldn`t pay for the upgrade) You would be surprised what you can get away with on the Xcube. I think with most TC mods it`s just a reference, depends greatly on how good the programmers are. I put my Xcube on Nickel, started off at minimum temp and then just worked my way up until it TCd properly. I think it ended up at about 200F (may have messed with the resistance coefficient) but it was the same heat and flavour as a nickel coil would have given me at double that displayed temperature. It was a clean taste compared to the nickel, but not a lot in it between nickel and SS.
Vape Mesh\Crazy Wire Co just sell standard quality industrial product and in my experience they just don't understand the needs of vapers, nothing special about the wires they sell. Just look at what they thought was vapable Ti allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/45281/crazy-wire-live-name, since that post I have had other issues with their range and so called customer service and I would have been far less generous in what I wrote and will not use them is there is any alternative.
I've been trying SS304,very easy to use and half the price of 316/17.
I read that it was'spiky'and with my DNA200 the escribe graph is all over the place, didn't vape all that well but only the first attempt(s).
you can also use it in kanthal mode so may try that instead.
Thanks for the replies/info guys, ordered SS317L for now as nanotm linked to give it a try.
I have dual 0.5mm x 3mm spaced coils for 0.17 ohms and TC won't work. Still a cracking vape at 60w with a home brew Key Lime cheesecake, I'm going to have to make another 30ml tomorrow.
0.12 Electrical Resistivity (microhm-cm (at 68 Deg F))?? me thinks they have copied n pasted the same data for each wire, but is little help in deciding which to opt for.. i dont want to be building monster coils due to buying too big a wire..
Well mines arrived and I'll have a play over the Christmas holidays on a few mods....
