 had even more power in the game close to the table. But the demands on BG V1 are even higher.
Half distance
From the half distance, Donic BlueGrip R1 develops good dynamics and beats its competitors. Counter topspins can be controlled well. An increase of speed is possible at any time.
The mix of enormous power, with a little less spin sensitivity, makes this rubber a controllable weapon. Slow spin attacks of the opponent can be silenced with a high quota.
Blocking
Donic BlueGrip R1 has its light and shadow sides while blocking. The amount of spin that the rubber takes on should not be underestimated.
Especially with passive blocks, BG R1 reacts very sensitive to the incoming spin. Once you have the right angle and pressure figured out, the rubber delivers a constantly flat and direct block ball.
Active blocks up to direct counter strokes are preferable, as the blocks then can be played with a good, stable length.
Service
As with Hybrid K1, BlueGrip R1 doesn’t provide the maximum spin in my serves. Although the top sheet is very grippy/tacky and precisely reflects my movements, something is slowing down the spin development on serve. Therefore “only” a very good, not a maximum spin, is generated. At least that’s how I feel.
Returns
In case of returns, the complete, active repertoire of strokes is at your disposal. Hard flips, banana flips or safe short lay ups succeed perfectly. When reacting passively, the rubber absorbs an enormous amount of spin, so an appropriate racket angle must be in place to avoid mistakes.
Hard strokes & defense play
In the shooting game, you can act with a lot of power and high precision. Depending on your used blade, this can be an absolute weapon. In the passive defense BlueGrip R1 makes a good figure. But there are rubbers which give more feedback and control. The good thing is that there is enough power and dynamics to effectively apply counter attacks.
Conclusion on Donic BlueGrip R1
Donic BlueGrip R1 is another hard rubber version with a sticky top sheet. The great strengths of this rubber are variable finishing strokes and the half distance play, when compared to similar rubbers. Unfortunately the BG R1 is slightly behind the competition in terms of rotation. But this is not necessarily a disadvantage. Actually on the contrary, because BlueGrip R1 can be controlled better in some game situations.
With an in-house comparison R1 shows more softness, more flexibility and more control than V1. Therefore, the demands increase when BlueGrip V1 is used.
I would recommend this rubber for players who want to score direct points with all kinds of finishing shots, but also want to have the possibility to play from half distance.Fall weather may be a little delayed, but fall fundraisers are cropping up faster than pumpkin patches. And yes, you’ll see fried apple pies, doughnuts, candy bars and fried fish offered, but the pinnacle of fundrasiers is always Boston butt sales. Just say the words and watch people’s eyes light up as they envision meltingly tender pork surrounded by a brown crust encasing just the right amount of fat.
It’s no wonder that churches, social organizations and nonprofits offer the Holy Grail of fundraisers every year. I don’t want to eat into their profits, but really, a Boston butt is the ideal dish for your home slow cooker.
Perhaps using the word, “recipe” is pushing it since cooking a butt is so simple to do, and needs few ingredients. That doesn’t mean it’s not messy. For any meat that’s braised for long periods of time, you really should brown it first. Imagine manhandling a 3-3 ½ pound, bone-in butt into ¼ cup of sizzling vegetable oil in your largest, blazing hot pot and letting it splatter away while it gets that brown crust.
Oh, yeah, and you have to turn it over half way through to brown the other side. Some people insist that you can brown the meat by putting it on the grill first. 
Don’t season the meat before you brown it in hot oil, because that inhibits the process. Once you’ve browned the pork, place it in your slow cooker, along with one coarsely chopped onion, an entire head of peeled garlic cloves, half a tablespoon of salt and pepper and 2 cups of white wine. Set the cooker on low and braise for 8 hours. You’ll return home to a pot full of tender pulled pork that defies the need for sauce, but begs for a crusty bread for sopping.I almost always shoot product photos against a green screen. This allows me to quickly and accurately cut the product out from its background and then use it in any number of ways. For what I do - tricking the eye is vital. If I was to stack a dozen guitars one in front of the other - if shot from say, 6-7 o'clock - there would be an unavoidable issue with perspective. Regardless the lens used, they can't all occupy the same plane from that angle. So the guitars in the back will be smaller - because they are farther away. If I shot them individually and put them together - that would eliminate the issue of perspective, but your mind would immediately recognize that something was wrong with the image. This is where PS is such an amazing tool. You put each on its own layer, stacking them the way they'd be stacked in reality if you were shooting them in a studio, and you add a supplemental layer between. I use Alien Skin/Black Box - Eye Candy for PS. A powerful series of plugins. I can program a drop shadow that simulates a real lighting and shadow environment for the guitars and by creating these little variations in shadows and highlights, you can trick the eye into thinking it is seeing something real. In the first, third, and fourth photos in this card, these guitars were all shot separately and added to a composite image in PS. Regarding backgrounds, or with green screen work, the "plate" - I create most specifically for the image in question. I have an extensive library I've created now. You'll note that in several of my cards, "I Am Aries", "Send Me An Angel", etc... they share the same plate.Where to start on MkIII restoration?
Can't believe I have been a member for 9 years, and this is my first post!
I have an 86.5 Supra hardtop with the Sports Package and 5-speed. Love the car, but it is now in some desperate need of TLC. I bought it 9 years ago with 200k miles, I am the fourth owner but in essence the second owner, as the other two owners had the vehicle less than a month each and put a grand total of 300 miles on the car. I put 5k miles on the car after purchasing for $1500. It wasn't a perfect car, but what I was wanting. Now for a little history... Back in the early 90's, I started buying Triumph sportscars and developed Shipwright's Syndrome, which quickly progressed to Shipwright's Disease. Well, jump back to the Supra, the plug wells started getting oil in them, and having owned another car with a Yamaha influenced engine (90 Taurus SHO), I figured it was time for new plug seals. Having Shipwright's Disease, I could not leave well enough alone to just repair that, I had to go further, since I already had it torn down that far. Before starting the tear down, I ordered all the parts that I assumed I would need, gaskets, ARP studs, hoses, etc.
Well, during this time, I truly became sick and almost died. This was 2013, and took me nearly 3 years to recover physically, and another 3 years to recover financially. In the meantime, my beloved Supra has sat outside, wanting love. It is time! Now, where do I start? The fuel system? Brake system? Engine? Gearbox, Suspension? I'm pulling my hair out!
What I really need, is a good support group!!! Thank you!
After sitting for 6 years (at least from what it sounds like) I'd start by flushing the fuel system. Then flush your brake and clutch fluid since those absorb moisture over time. Fresh engine oil isn't a bad idea either. Just get it running so you can figure out what really needs to be worked on or replaced before diving in.
For the oil in the plug valley it's pretty much always the cam cover seals. Replace them with the Fel-pro seals and don't forget the rubber washers under the bolts. Follow THIS for the cam cover seal replacement.
Oh, and post pics.
I’m starting to follow this topic, because I am in a similar situation. After few years I want to launch the engine in my old project (MKIII with swapped 1jz).
Baseline fluids (literally anything liquid in the car) and leaks first and foremost. Tackle basic function first, then game plan your budget and goal, then start prioritizing.
