DreamingSpirals is back. Links have been fixed. Mod Rewrite for pretty URLs. Dead links fixed (most of them anyway). Updated "about page." Fixed iPhone issues.

Dear Faithful DS Readers,

You may have noticed that DS was off-line for approximately 72 hours. The cause of this is not clear, but this is the second time in three months that my host, Vizaweb, has left me and many others hanging for over twenty-four hours. There were rumors that the owners had cut and run. Vizaweb was unreachable by email, phone or even fax. Well it looks like they're back, at least for now. Currently, I am in the process of backing up all content (I store a lot of research in the protected DS vault) and moving to a new host. I will continue to post new content here and on the new host. When I have all the bugs worked out on the new server, I will point dreamingspirals.com to the new ip address.

Sincerely,
George (lostcosmos)

My G^3 GD was an Apothecary. This was his scale. It stays on the self most of the time, collecting dust, but I can't help but imagine the potions that pasted over it from Apothecary to patient.

I've gotten a few emails since this post. A few DS readers have found these around and asked how to use them. So by the numbers:

1. Place item to be weighed on the pan.
2. Move the lever to W.
   


3. Read the number in the center display (this is the approximate gram weight -1). In the case the display shows 21:
   


4. Turn the lever back to zero.
5. Using the dials on the front, dial in the weight in step 3 + 1. In this case we dial in 22.
6. Move the lever to 1:
   


7. Now dial the right hand side knob so that one line is aligned between the two arrows:
   


8. All done! Be sure and return the lever to 0 before taking weight on or off the pan.

There are freaking awesome!!
