58F @ 83% RH, cloudy, and predicted to reach 76F with good air quality.
We're number one, we're number one! Portland now has the most stolen cars of any US city over a million population! The city just recovered over a dozen near a homeless camp being stripped for parts, begging the question of how exactly our bourgeoning homeless population is supporting themselves.
Hee, hee, hee, I got my silver locks shorn yesterday and the hair stylist made me smile by trying to work me, ostensibly for a better tip. She complimented my wavy hair, and told me it reminded her of a Greek god, and noted that I look like I had lost a few pounds since my last visit. She is pretty, tall, slender, well proportioned and wearing a tight mid calf knit dress with a scoop front that was revealing when she bent over and acted like I was an old client, but she had actually only cut my hair once before. She got the same 20% tip the stylist always get when they do a good job, but it was fun being played.

Yeah. As an ole Engineer, I would say there is an electromagnet rotating on an internal track. That would account for the hesitation at the apex of each turn (a "hot" non-moving magnetic band rolls the corners). Not a difficult thing, but dang clever.
Kewl effect.

Me too (if it's real) I'm also an old engineer - I think our brains work in different ways to normal people?

Just thought I'd replieto this. Just going mad I guess.
I too am an old engineer & immediately see summat like this I'm figuring out how it might work.
Exactly similar thinking from me.
I think engineers brains are wired very differently to most normal people.
Odear itlook like America is waking up now.
Better switch from phone to PCor tablet
Too hard on small phone screen

Absolutely perfect 5 stars for that one.
Now I'm thinking, well for just $50-75 I could just replace whole thing. When replacement time comes I will probably feel like I could save $50-75! It never ends, LOL. However, I did take your recommendation back when I posted about RO machine choices. You stated the amount of time for a gallon, and when I bought new version of same machine they had upped the output considerably. Mine came with 2 tubes, this is the more restrictive of the 2, I believe 2 to 1...I think. A gallon takes about 12-15 mins. Beats the crap out of 3 hrs for a gallon of distilled I was doing, and my tap water, once through the RO machine has perfect PH (for me) at about 6.6- 6.7. My tapp is way to high, 8+ to use out of tap as is.

You sure she didn't say you looked like a God damned Greek?

More likely called him a cheap basturd and said come in more than once a year for a cut.You sure she didn't say you looked like a God damned Greek?
I could see using electromagnetics, but I'm thinking that one is photo shopped. Note there are no marks on the wear surfaces and how low mass the head would have to be to hang out that far and make the quick adjustment at the peak of the cycle.
Old misfit engineers abound on this thread.
I'm not an idiot, I'm an engineer. A common mistake!

Hard to say, she was running her fingers through my hair at the time and I was hoping she was going to grope me, so ah could have been distracted.
Maybe wondered that looking at my gorgeous fast growing head of luxurious wavy silver hair, but she had already seen by the computer that it had been less than two months, so ah'm thinking she was more deeply impressed at my male virility and seeing light at the end of the tunnel on her student loans. Couldn't hardly keep her hands off my hair the whole time she was cutting it.
Ah guess ah should have offered to autograph the basket she carefully collected my glistening silver locks and licks in, to making it more valuable at auction.

That is why they put such a long gown around you, not only does it cover your clothing from hair clippings.
It also doubles as a shield to hide the occasional pull and tug you do while dreamer of her rubbing your head LOL

Plus it conceals the fact that his **** reaches to the ground.
I believe he has a brass ferrule on his knob end so that it doesn't chafe when walking on hard surfaces.
(ferrule made-to-measure by an engineer of course.)
