Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows Trailer is Out!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 Trailer (2016) from Paramount Pictures is out today and I am very excited about it.  I was very impressed with the plot and treatment of the turtles in the first movie in this series that came out in 2014.  I have been a long time fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles since they first appeared in comic books and in the 90's cartoon series as well as the 90's movie trilogy.  Recent revamps of the turtles in the 2000's did not really excite me because the animation style and  feel of the series and movies changed to what seemed like a more simplistic and Japanese art style that most animated TV shows seemed to transition to at the turn of the millennium and was different than the style that I grew to love in the 90's. The smiling faces became rigid and the eyes be came white slants.  Even though they took on a more realistic image the whimsical and human feel of turtles was not there for me.  At any rate I am very glad to see a new series of turtle movies that I like very much and seems stay true to the turtles story and feel that made me grow to love them  while at the same time provide a since of nostalgia and also add some new dynamics with the help of CGI (Computer Generated Imagery). With the addition of Rock Steady and Bebop as well as the possibilities of Krang and Dimension X this movie holds many wonderful possibilities that have been long over due in the movie series.  I am so Siked!!!

How to Save on Air Conditioning Costs During The Summer with Homemade Window Covers

Are you getting frustrated trying to have a
comfortable temperature in your house during
the Summer and also trying to save money on
Air Conditioning?
Difficulty: Moderate





Instructions
things you'll need:
Full Size Black Trash Bags(number according to windows that you want to cover)
Velcro Tape
Scissors
Stable Chair or Ladder




1 First, Take the trash bag and flatten it out so that you can see 4 corners and
cut it (very Carefully) down the left side and down the right side. Make sure
that you cut strait down each side. *If done correctly, plastic should hang the
length of your window and cover most of the width of your window.

2 Now its time for the Velcro tape. Cut 2, 3 to 4 inch strips of equal length.
Then, remove the tape guard on one side of the velcro and tape it to the top
edge on the left side. Do the same thing with the other strip, but on the right
side. This end will be the top of your window guard. If you have blinds or
shades you should be just fine with just the two top velcro strips. If not, you
may need to add two more at the bottom.

3 Now take the new homemade window cover to a window where the sun shines
in most of the day. If you have blinds, raise them test out how your cover will fit
the window.
Now remove the sticky guard on the outside part of the velcro on the right and
left sides and press the velcro tape securely against the top left and right side
of your window while stretching the width of the plastic to the width of the
window pane. Make sure that it level.

4  Ok, Do you feel cooler yet? Now that your window guard is securely in the
window. carefully let down your blinds or shades so that the plastic rests
between the window pane and the blinds.

5  Repeat Previous steps for each window. And enjoy a cooler house and a
lower Electric bill.


Tips & Warnings:

Feel free to experiment with adhesive attachments. Duct tape left adhesive on my window so don't use duct tape.
Check to make sure the tape is secure every once in while.
It may take a while to make a straight cut in the trash bag but be patient and it will pay off.
Make sure you have good footing when trying to reach the top of the window.
No wobbly chairs.
Be careful.
