Naughty America Megavedio

Val Thorens - ski season opener vs. City

This weekend the French wake up from a dream of summer and winter ski season begins. In Val Thorens has the opportunity to promote - two-day ski passes, plus two nights in the apartment for 50 Euro a sudden. 10-seater small group of people willing to exploit this cheapness was quite fast and I am also joined. Originally nastawiałem not go skiing before Christmas but no such opportunity was a pity pass.


As you can see the terrible amount of snow there was, it was opened some 20% of the resort but whatever. We found a slope on which nasypało so much that could be a little off the route to go .. Moreover, the same route was closed in total. Thus was ously on it and not lodostrada like everywhere else, so rode pretty cool. Also wyszalałem a little by these two days would no, and now to 2011 :-)

I Have Had Chlamydia For A Year

top

Today and tomorrow I'm in Brussels, a two-day workshop devoted individuals. The second time in my life I visit this city, but all in all I will not specifically visited, because I'll be back soon, and besides, as you know - the city usually bore me.

Although I must admit that the buildings around the main square and impressed me ... kind of buildings such as buildings, but the Gothic town hall is really nice. Illuminated like toys in the office at night, more modern part of town too cool.

But I did not total it.

walk around town and watching the mighty buildings once I do not know which made me wonder how I have overcome the distance to the mountain excursions. In the sense: for example, how many blocks translates into a shift from the Pass Kasprowy Świnicką, or how much would Kościelec near the Palace of Culture.

Well this time I decided to check, at least in the context of the distance. Take for example Chochołowska Valley - never liked especially because the boring, dreary and drag on like wildfire. I like to walk through the valley translates to a distance of "urban"? So it is roughly 8km, namely:

  • In Geneva, for example, corresponds to the output from CERN (gate B) and Meyrin spacerowaniu straight through to the bridge of Mt Blanc ...
  • Or if you prefer the other way - to the ski lift in Crozet (well, it will be more 8.5 km)
  • In Warsaw - you have to follow the example of Metro Golf Mokotowskie avenues up to the Metro Marymont, and even a little further . Piece, is not it?

with Kasprowy Świnica is the 2.4 km-flight bird - or as much as the Royal Castle Hotel Mariott (a flight bird).

little more is the Refuge du Gouter on Mt Blanc - in the range of 3.5 km ... (Vertical or the 1000m) ... but it goes like wildfire ... geometrically it is as if the inlet Strazyska Valley go in a straight line Giewont.

Watch Digital Playground Stream

Series: Learning to paint by trial and error

6th Episode Error 13: "Always give backing laying $#%#"

Since I have temporarily available for both cars because of Karolinka Gosiak are in Poland, I do with them other outstanding orders. On daily temporarily changed to the small and large stands at CERN without tynego bumper - bumper is painted. Both of Gosiakiem odcisnęliśmy on it (literally) his mark, see, eg, here. Brush completely go past the goal, so I decided to airbrush the entire prysnąć corner - I already have some experience because I've done in this way one door and a mask (with varying degrees of success, but generally ok).


Well, I realized what a primer (I think). Zeszlifowałem sandpaper place where the bumper powyginał whether the paint had cracked off ... I gave backing to the plastic (such transparent something) .. and began cheerfully painted silver. And what it turned out? Places where he was underneath the old paint and the place where he was underneath the plastic came out quite differently. Not because the paint does not hide - I just think it was something with the texture of what the painting and the paint just looks different.

Even after several attempts, once again I sat down with sandpaper and tore what I paint, then painted the whole background. With the help of a brush.



So how then again I fought to the end of the paper is flush did not work out, but no longer had the strength to improve. It came out something like this:



As you can see I got to the old paint underneath, but at least the bare plastic (almost) does not protrude. After pryśnięciu color was not so bad:


next day he went lacquer, and then there were attempts to shine .. the total is no revelation, but it is certainly better than it was :
