  • K1 Timer with Remote Start Switch Instructions
    Micro Wizard Instructions How to install your Fast Track flashing light display timer model K1 with optional remote start switch (If you have ordered the Quick Mount or have a Best Track, disregard this section and refer to the mounting instruction sheet for installing your timer) Enclosed you will find the Fast Track finish tine, remote start switch, a computer interface cable and USB converter* , AC adapter (and any options ordered). The Fast Track finish line contains all the electronics, sensors and displays for the Fast Track system. To install the Fast Track finish line to your track, mark the finish line on your track with a pencil. Now mark the midpoint of each lane where it crosses the finish line. These marks should align with the location of the sensors in the bottom rail of your Fast Track timer, which was manufactured according to the track measurements provided on the order form. Next, measure from the nearest sensor to the mounting screws. Mark this spot where it crosses the finish line. This marks the spot to put the mounting screws. The other marks are for the sensors that are mounted in the bottom rail of the Fast Track finish line. Now carefully drill these marks in the finish line of your track with a 3/16 inch drill bit. The sensor holes should be in the middle of each lane. The two other holes are for mounting and should be countersunk with a 1/4 inch bit so that the mounting screws are flush with the surface of the track.

  • Annual Report 2011–2012
    Annual Report 2011–2012 San Diego Natural History Museum Our Mission To interpret the natural world through research, education and exhibits; to promote understanding of the evolution and diversity of southern California and the peninsula of Baja California; and to inspire in all a respect for nature and the environment. October 2012 Dear Museum Friends, We close the 2011–12 fi scal year with renewed optimism and a collective sigh of relief. Over this past year we continued to realize the benefi ts of the many diffi cult decisions made in years 2008 through 2010. The year 2008 felt like the perfect economic storm, but critical analysis over the period of the recession and nimble strategic management last fall ushered in a new day when the Museum secured Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition which generated a critical revenue stream. Coupled with our self-imposed austerity measures, this year’s strong admissions and attendance numbers have helped to bring the Museum back to a fi rm fi nancial footing. This begs an important question: why is the San Diego Natural History Museum doing an exhibition on the Titanic? What does Titanic have to do with natural history? Our strategy for traveling exhibitions stems from a philosophy fi rst espoused by the Legler Benbough Foundation. When the Benbough Foundation funded the traveling exhibition hall that bears their name, the Foundation did so with the goal of “providing opportunities for San Diegans that would be otherwise unavailable.” As an important member of the San Diego regional arts and culture community, we are providing opportunities to experience the fi nest exhibitions available regionally, nationally, and internationally.

    ABANDONED CARS by Tim Lane APRIL $18.99 Paperback • Territory: E COMICS & GRAPHIC NOVELS / Literary • CQ: 30 168 pages, black-and-white, 7” x 9 ½” ISBN: 978-1-60699-341-5 Previous hardcover edition: 978-1-56097-918-0 • 2009 Ignatz Award Nominee for Outstanding Collection • Video preview of 2008 hardcover edition available at: fantagraphics.com/abandonedcars • AGE RANGE: 15 + • Author website: jackienoname.com THE ACCLAIMED 2008 debuT NOW IN SOFTCOVER! Abandoned Cars is Tim Lane’s first collection of graphic short stories, noir- ish narratives that are united by their exploration of the great American mytho- logical drama by way of the desperate and haunted characters that populate its pages. Lane’s characters exist on the margins of society—alienated, floating in the void between hope and despair, confused but introspective. The writing is straightforward, the stories mainstream but told in a pulpy idiom with an existential edge, often in the first person, reminiscent of David Goodis’s or Jim Thompson’s prose, or of films like Pick-Up on South Street or Out of the Past. Visually, Lane’s drawing is in a realistic mode, reminiscent of Charles Burns, that heightens the tension in stories that veer between naturalism on the one hand and the comical, nightmarish, and hallucinatory on the other. Here, American culture is a thrift store and the characters are thrift store junkies living among the clutter. It’s an America depicted as a subdued and haunted Coney Island, made up of lost characters—boozing, brawling, haplessly shooting themselves in the face, and hopping freight trains in search of Elvis.
