Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

I went to Daiso mostly to stock up on my favorite sponge and this is what I saw. No favorite sponge.
It's been ages since my last photo shoot, but Leslie asked me to take pictures for her Christmas card and I said okay. I used her camera (love, love, love) because I wasn't sure if mine would function properly.
There were some good photos, but most were like the ones below.
I had choke good fun, BTW.
Funny, no? Wendell brines our Thanksgiving turkey and it comes out really moist. I figured the leftovers would go good with a ginger sauce, and it did!
I used Foodland's recipe. Heat 1/4 cup of peanut oil. Add 1/2 cup of minced ginger and 1/2 cup of minced green onion. Cook for 30 seconds. Add 1 teaspoon of salt. Pour over cold turkey.
Fred still appears when I go out to putter around the yard. He usually scampers up to me and does his head-bobbing thing. Then he waits patiently while I dig for worms for him.
But I think his favorite is flies. Landon once swatted a fly, and Fred couldn't even wait for Lan to flick the fly off. He just jumped right onto the swatter and gobbled it up.
BAKED POTATO CHIP CHICKEN
1 egg
1 c. favorite potato chips, crushed
1 large chicken breast, sliced, 3 pieces
Salt, pepper, smoked paprika
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Beat egg in a medium sized bowl. Place crushed potato chips in a medium sized plate. On cutting surface, slice chicken breast lengthwise into 3 equal sized portions.
Season with salt, pepper and paprika. Dip chicken pieces into egg. Dredge with potato chips, pressing to adhere chips to chicken pieces on both sides.
Bake 30-35 minutes (dependent on thickness of pieces) or until the chicken reaches appropriate temperature (165 for breast meat).
Serve immediately. Serves 2-3.
This is actually leftover eggplant parmigiana that I ate on spaghetti noodles last night. I had made the parmigiana at the spur of the moment the night before.
