There are a number of reasons that balls are breaking some of which are:
1. The ideal playing temperatures for paintballs are: 59 to 86 F (15 to 30 C) and 40 to 50% relative humidity. Paintballs are temperature/humidity sensitive and can expand and are binding at the magazine feed neck
2. Marker velocity is too high
3. Bolt has sharp edges
4. Barrel is dirty or damaged
5. Paintballs are too brittle
6. Bad hammer o-ring (jack hammering)
7. Ball detent is in too far
See Video Links:
See Video links:
Answer: To increase the velocity, turn the screw below the air source adapter clockwise. To decrease, counter-clockwise
Step 1: Twist to loosen the muzzle brake.
Step 2: Separate the muzzle brake from the barrel.
Step 3: Loosen the front sight fixing screw.
Step 4: Separate the front sight from the barrel.
Step 5: Loosen the rear cap fixing screws (3x).
Step 6: Separate the front and rear caps from the hand guard.
Step 7: Separate the top and bottom hand guard covers from the barrel.
In Summary: Remove factory barrel, screw on new barrel kit. Loosen front sight, loosen rear hand guard cap (screw in the middle). Adjust front sight and hand guard. Tighten set screws.

We'll respond shortly.
Martin Fowler says Mocks Aren't Stubs and talks about Classical and Mockist Teting. Dave shows slightly amusing set of photos about "ists" – Rubyists etc. Ist bin ein red herring. The big issue here is when to use a mock.
Terminology: test double – an object standing in for a real object (like a stunt double).
customer = Object.new
logger = Object.new
customer.stub(:name).and_return('Joe Customer')
customer.should_receive(:name).and_return('Joe customer')
# bad - very tightly bound to implementation
customer.stub(:name).and_return('Joe customer')
# also tighly bound to implementation
Isolation from non-determinism: Simulate random value geneators or Time.now.
Isolation from external depedencies: e.g. external database or network. Have gave anexample or an ActiveMerchant test that takes 1.5s to run, and stubbed out gateway.stubs(:authorize).returns(AM:Billing:Response.new(true, 'ignore')
Polymorphic collaborators: e.g. employee that knows how to pay itself, uses a strategy. paymet_strategy = mock() employee = E.new(p_s)
side effects: background processing
caching: only call a network zipcode lookup once
validator = mock()
zipcode = Zipcode.new("01234", validator)
interface discovery: tool to discover the parts of the system that you haven't really worked out yet. Mock something out that doesn't exist yet, while designing its interface.
All of these concepts are Isolation Testing – testing an object in isolation from others. This is a good fit when you have lots of little objects (ravioli code, as opposed to spaghetti code).
Rails is calzone code. Three layers: View Controller Model. These 3 layers are not the whole picture: browser, router, database. Standard rails testing:
Partials in view specs:
before :each do
template.stub(:render).with(:partial => anything)
template.should_receive(:render).with(:partial => 'nav')
Conditional branches in controllers: Stub new and save! methods of models.
Dave has a new project stubble on github: You will need to build RSpec locally to use this for now.
stubbing(Registration) do
# Stubs ActiveRecord finder and save methods on model
Chains are a new RSpec feature: user.stub_chain – some people say this is a test no-no, use with caution.

i need some advice. I am physically and emotionally exhausted and am unable to catch a break. as a result my AP skills are less than stellar and my dd is receiving the brunt of my impatience. What i want to know is, How do you cope with parenting under difficult circumstances? As she's napping right now, I can reflect on how i made poor choices in handling her tantrums and her "strong will" today. I had to put myself in a timeout and leave her crying for me because I couldn't handle it. I hate when i end up losing my temper and yelling back and basically turn into a 2yo myself. Then i worry about scarring her or something on days i lose it and seem to throw AP out the window. I feel like the worst mom sometimes. We practice AP in all areas, but sometimes positive discipline, empathy, and patience can be the biggest struggle. Thanks for letting me vent. And thanks for any advice.

MomMom and devoted wife to 3 creatures of delight
i'm sorry you're having such a tough time of it. we all have days where we don't live up to our expectations, do things we shouldn't, need to put ourselves in timeout, etc. it comes with parenting. remember, there is no such thing as perfect parenting.
it is especially difficult when we are stressed out or unable to operate on all four cylinders. try doing whatever it is you need to do to come to a more centered place, tend to your own needs, so that you can balance the needs of your family.
you didn't give any specific examples of what you need help w/, but if there's something more, please let me know and i'll try to help.

Hello! Yes, I have been there also!
Forgive yourself, apologise to your child and try to develop skills for the next tough times.
That's all you can really do!
When your feeling good try to set aside a "breakdown" shoebox full of special items for your child so you can have that time out when you need it.
I have gone over to a neighbors in a pinch too, just for a change of scenery and to give myself a mental break (with the children.) I explain that I just need a few minutes with another adult to take the edge off. She is a young mother also so totally understands!
Do you have a support group near you or sympathetic friends. Those types of connections are really wonderful in those types of situations.
Once again I think the "find your triggers" section in THIS book would be really wonderful for you. It has helped me in those challenging momments!
Kids, Parents, and Power Struggles: Winning for a Lifetime by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka
Give yourself a hug! You are trying your best!
thanks so much for your replies. I'm definitely going to check out that book. I think i was just going through a lot--company came and went, dh working and studying for finals, nasty weather kept us cooped up, holiday stress. i do find that winter brings feelings of depression and anxiety in general. I liked the special box idea--maybe i'll keep some of her christmas presents stored away for times i need a break

Hello, I just remembered about this article
Managing Your Own Anger
What to do When You Want to Have a Tantrum
by API Staff & Tricia Jalbert
API News, June 2000
It has some helpful stuff in it!
A very similar take on the trigger part tin the book I already recommended.
We have had a rough day today after 5 days of non-stop holiday stuff the kids are just exhausted and overstimulated. On those days, it helps for my husband and I to lower our standard of cleanliness and timeliness. We can all be cleaner and on time tomorrow when we are feeling better!

Great black boots
"I've been looking for a pair of low-medium heel boots to wear with jeans/leggings/skirts (I travel quite a bit, and need versatile shoes). I also have athletic calves so some boots can be too tight to wear with jeans. However, the stretchy panel on the sides means I can wear them with tights or with skinny jeans or thick socks. The heel height is great - enough to look polished but I can walk in them all day."

So close!
"These boots are really nice... I ordered a 9 instead of 8.5 due to having semi wide feet and I'm glad I did ... the taupe color is close to gray so these will match many different colors...comfy... good heel height and I don't normally wear heels. The reason I only give it 3 stars is because the way the boots are made, the wide flap (sorta resembles the tongue of a shoe) that goes up past your ankle on the front of the boot causes the leather to gap a great deal at the ankle. There is a big fold of leather sticking straight out from the sides around the ankle and for me it takes away from the look of the boot. Sadly, I will return."

Super pleased!
"Was in need of some new black boots, after wearing an old pair to shreds - knew I couldn't get to my local DSW, so bought a few pairs online.These are FAB - super comfy, true to size, and just what I was looking for. Thrilled with my purchase!"

The Shawnee National Forest is famed for its awesome Garden of the Gods, and is home to the Rim Rock Recreational Trail (the forest has a system of 403 miles of equestrian/hiking trails). Hikers are greeted by magnificent jutting walls of rock covered with emerald-green moss, and paths that meander through canyons under the forest canopy. Nestled between the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, the stunning Shawnee National Forest landscape features rolling hills, lakes, creeks and rugged bluffs. If you're into climbing than a must-see is Jackson Falls, located near the town of Ozark in the Hidden Springs Ranger District in Shawnee National Forest. The climb takes place on 60 feet of sandstone cliffs and boulders that include numerous freestanding towers.
Rolling agricultural fields, reclaimed strip mines, ravines, rocky streams and wooded bluffs dominate the northern half of the Tunnel Hill State Trail. With 47.8 miles (one-way) of crushed gravel surface, extended inclines and dark tunnels, this trail is a difficult one, but one not to pass up, as long as you're up for the challenge. The southern half of the trail explodes with scenery that includes bottomland woods, ponds, streams and marshes. The trail, which winds through seven towns, even touches upon a handful of ghost towns that faded into the landscape after the trains here stopped running.
Spectacular woodlands and sheer sandstone walls create a challenge for rock climbing and rappelling, as well as hiking. Outdoor lovers will also find horseback riding, a lookout tower, cabins and a swimming pool. Dine at historic Giant City Lodge, known for its homemade fried chicken dinner. Two different locations in Giant City State Park near Carbondale give you climbing options. A trail behind the picnic shelter takes you to a set of steep bluffs known as Shelter #1 near the Makanda entrance; another climbing area of the park includes the steep sandstone cliffs in Devil's Standtable. Plan to bring all of your own equipment since no permanent anchors are allowed. Ropes are permitted in both areas. After rainstorms, the wet sandstone gets really slippery. Use caution when grabbing for ledges as copperhead snakes warm themselves on the rocks during sunny days.

CITY:Creal Springs
Tucked away in the beautiful rolling hills of Southern Illinois, the cabin location rests on the highly acclaimed Southern Illinois Wine Trail. Pinnon Lake is five minutes from the edge of Shawnee National Forrest. We are only three miles off Interstate 57 at exit 36. Moments from anywhere yet feels like miles from it all. On any given day you may observe deer in the field, geese landing on the lake, a family of wild turkeys at the edge of the woods. In the spring you may even take a peek at our new baby calves, as the property is a third generation working family farm.
The 34 cabins offered at Giant City State Park include 12 one-room cabins and duplex cabins nestled in the bluffs near the lodge, featuring a living room and deck overlooking the woods below.

This natural geologic sandstone formation spans 90 feet across a ravine in a mature beech, oak and hickory forest. Nearby is an easy hiking trail dotted with picnic sites.
Located near the town of Ozark in the Shawnee National Forest, Jackson Falls offers arguably the best rock climbing in southern Illinois. There are roughly 60 climbing areas along the sandstone bluffs and freestanding boulders, each with multiple named routes on them. There are over 500 named routes in all. Most of the routes are 50-60 feet in height. The whole area sits in a very scenic glen. Most of the routes at Jackson Falls are sport routes, though there are a number of traditional routes, and a few areas suitable for setting up a top-rope. There are also many excellent bouldering opportunities here.
Anchoring the eastern end of the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail, our winery offers you "The Romance of Italy in the Hills of Southern Illinois". We are open year-round, 7 days a week, to provide great Illinois wine. Please join us for wine tasting, a variety of hearty sandwiches, soups, pizzas, and snacks, as well as wine-alternatives such as beer and non-alcoholic beverages.

The Little Grand Canyon trail is located within the Shawnee National Forest.

Shawnee Bluffs Canopy Tour consists of eight zip lines, the longest stretching more than 1,100 feet, which will zig-zag across the property's bluffs and through the valley. The tour also includes 11 platforms high in the trees, three aerial suspension bridges, the longest stretching 180 feet, and two short ground hikes. A canopy tour is an exciting way to experience the flora, fauna, geology and history of the outdoors by safely traversing an established route of ziplines and aerial bridges between platforms built in the trees, and they are just plain fun!
It's all about the water at Rend Lake, where you can swim, boat, water ski and fish.

Alto Vineyards Winery & Tasting Room
Nestled in the Shawnee Hills of Southern Illinois, sits Alto Vineyards, the region's oldest, most award-winning winery. Founded in 1988 by Guy Renzaglia, Alto introduced a new industry to the area, starting a movement that has altered its landscape. Today, Alto Vineyards shares the region with 11 other wineries along the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail, in the state's first federally recognized grape-growing region, known as an American Viticultural Area (AVA). While continuing to produce some of Illinois' finest wine, Alto opened a new tasting room in Champaign, IL, and began distributing throughout the state and surrounding regions. Celebrating 25 years in business in 2013, Alto constructed a new, modern tasting room next to the vineyard in Alto Pass. Resting atop the new facility lies an outdoor deck for customers to take in the view on one of southern Illinois' oldest vineyards – a truly breathtaking sight that exemplifies the beauty of the Shawnee National Forest and Illinois wine country. We invite you to visit our winery and tasting rooms to experience the tradition of Alto Vineyards.

Pretty ok chapter. ^^ A 'good' stellarspirit mage showing up lol.
What's funny though: They, together have almost all 'special' ecliptic zodiac keys lol.
Lucy: Leo, Virgo, Cancer, Aquarius, Bull, Centaurus
Angel: Gemini, Ram, Scorpion
That leaves:
Hmmm curious how the Pisces and Libra will look like... hopefully some of them turn more powerful later on cause they're pretty weak. The only stellar spirits who have actually looked strong are Leo, Gemini and Aquarius...
The bull and the archer are incredibly weak, and cancer with his scissors didnt look usefull as well.
How do you guys think lucy will improve after getting all the zodiac keys? The only other i can think of is the stellar spirit king to summon... hmm maybe she can focus on the chinese zodiac then
I don't think Lucy will get all of Angel's Keys when she defeats her, maybe just Aries
It would be one hell of a powerup though
Fighting online is like competing in the Special Olympics, even if you win you're still retarded
Set made by Ravona
What happens if a key is destroyed?
Angel might end up escaping with 1 key or something, but I hope Lucy gets them all, I wanna see Scorpio in action and Aries but I think Gemini works better in the hands of someone evil.
A pie in the sky?

My son started to wake every 90 mins at 8 months old. We think it's because his top teeth are coming through. Every time he wakes up, my husband either rocks him back to sleep or I breastfeed him. However, after a month of doing this, I am feeling EXHAUSTED and don't think i can continue to 'sleep' like this any more. I would like my son not to expect to be fed every time he wakes, but whenever i try to get him to go back to sleep using different methods, he grabs at my breast until I give in. I would love to hear of similar experiences and any coping strategies please!!! Thanks.
No announcement yet.

I say let hubby do it. Pick 1 or 2 times you are willing to nurse him and help him there. Have you tried letting him suck on a warm washcloth or other teethy soothing thing? A cup of water, teething tablets?
9 mo old - trouble sleeping
We are having the same issue with our9mo old son. Won't sleep more than 90 minutes, and both mom and I are reaching the end of our reserves. Mom has to feed the baby down most times, and I'm developing a back issue picking him up so much. The lack of sleep is starting to affect my ability to work. Any suggestions on other approaches would be much appreciated.

Benno, are you lifting him in and out of a crib? Where are you picking him up from? What do you do with him afteryou pick him up? Walk, rock, bounce him? Where does your child sleep Etc....? need more info?
I sympathise COMPLETELY! Well, I thought i'd write to update on what we are doing as it's working really well.
I slept in another room for 3 nights while my husband was on holiday from work and so that our son wouldn't smell milk. Every time our son woke up (and cried) my husband picked him up and rocked/sang him back to sleep. He also offered him water to drink from a cup which he accepted. I rejoined them on the 4th night, again using other methods to soothe him back to sleep other than the breast. There is no way we could have let him cry - regardless of how 'zombified' i felt. We saw improvements each night. Fewer wakings, quicker to settle back to sleep, and last night he slept for 7 hours straight and only woke up twice!! Our son and I have started homeopathic treatment too - so I expect this may have had some affect too. Today he seems 'himself' again - so happy and alert - what a difference it makes! My back has been suffering too from picking him up - he's no lightweight! Hopefully in time our backs will heal as we get more sleep. The last thing i feel like doing when i'm sleep-deprived is sitting up straight and yoga etc!
Please let me know if you want any more info on what we did. What we are doing has benefitted all 3 of us so far. Good luck

Great news! That worked with my first son! His daddy is very attentive!
Slleping issues
Our son sleeps in his crib in a separate room. My wife and I sleep in separate rooms, close enough to go right in (small house, can't fit the crib in the bedroom). When he wakes up crying, I will go in and shush him or lift him out, depending on how agitated he is. I used to bounce him, but when the back is stiff I will try to rock him. If that doesn't work, I will walk him up front (space to actually walk, not just turn around constantly) while quietly singing. If that doesn't calm him down in 5-15 minutes, I will go for the teething gel/tablets and then continue for another 5-15. We have tried tylenol at times (teething), but it doesn't seem consistently effective. By this time, my wife has generally woken up and will come to take him. The general result at that point will be her feeding him to put him down. Sometimes he eats, generally he suckles.
Please let me know if this is enough info.
we have had the same issue off and on for 2 months. My DD is going to be 9 months next week. I have noticed it happens before she accomplishes a milestone. We are going through this now where she will only sleep maybe 3 hours in a 24 hour period. I figured out she is trying to walk so yesterday I gave her lots of opportunity to try. We spent all day on the floor with her at the coffee table and me a few feet away. She hasn't gotten the nerve to do it but by the end of the day she was very tired and slept through the night! Maybe your little one is wanting to learn a skill and it is keeping him up at night. Hope you get some sleep soon, it's so hard to be sleep deprived for that long!!

Skip to comments.Pro-Life Group Strips Stupak Of Award
Posted on 03/21/2010 5:59:05 PM PDT by autumnraine
The anti-abortion Susan B. Anthony List group announced tonight they will strip Rep. Bart Stupak of the "Defender of Life" award that he's received several times. The group blasted Stupak's role in forging a compromise with the White House on abortion language in an executive order and said he is no longer truly "pro-life."
The group says President Obama's executive order was "unacceptable" and they are redoubling efforts to elect "true" pro-life candidates.
SBA List Candidate Fund President Marjorie Dannenfelser issued a statement saying the group had been planning to honor Stupak (D-MI) for his efforts at their Campaign for Life Gala scheduled for Wednesday. "We will no longer be doing so. By accepting this deal from the most pro-abortion President in American history, Stupak has not only failed to stand strong for unborn children, but also for his constituents and pro-life voters across the country," Dannenfelser said in the statement.
Women's groups criticized Obama for the order as well.
The SBA List statement said lawmakers who vote for the health care bill "can no longer call themselves 'pro-life.'"
More from the statement:
The Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund will not endorse, or support in any capacity, any Member of Congress who votes for this bill in any future election. Now through Election Day 2010, these representatives will learn that votes have consequences. The SBA List Candidate Fund will work tirelessly to help defeat Members who support this legislation and make sure their constituents know exactly how they voted. We will actively seek out true pro-life candidates to oppose Members who vote 'yes' on this bill, whether it be in general or primary elections. For these Members, it will be a quick downhill slide to defeat in November. The executive order on abortion funding does absolutely nothing to fix the problems presented by the health care reform bill that the House will vote on this evening. The very idea should offend all pro-life Members of Congress. An executive order can be rescinded at any time at the President's whim, and the courts could and have a history of trumping executive orders. Most importantly, pro-abortion Representatives have admitted the executive order is meaningless.
The group detailed their efforts in the health care fight as, "nearly $2 million on a grassroots campaign of targeted television and radio ads, 1.3 million automated calls, 70,000 patch-through constituent calls, 1.2 million letters and petitions to Congress, two media and grassroots tours in pro-life Democratic districts, television ads in six districts and comprehensive polling in 20 pro-life Democratic districts."
I guess they never heard the story of the frog and the scorpion.
Everybody's getting gut punched with this bill... There will be hell to pay!
Boy that will teach him. (sarc)
Very sad a man sold his soul. THIS is the defining moment not only of his political career but of his life and that of his progeny.
The kiss of Judas.
You can fool some of the people...
Your rewards are just beginning Stupak. Collect your silver while you can, it'g going to be miserable for you - fraud.
I have more respect for a hardcore NARAL baby killer, wrong as their evil is...than a two bit phoney fraud Pro Lifer like Stupak.
Here Here!
Stupak obviously hasn't. I COULD NOT think, earlier, of what the animal-who-was-not-a-scorpion was. Dog? Cat? No, those aren't right..what the heck WAS it? And of course as soon as someone mentioned it here, the lightbulb came on - "Oh YES!! THAT was it!"
He sold out for less than $800K in airport funding.
He never was pro-life, not for a moment.
We were fooled once again. We were Stupid for Stupak.
I cry for my country tonight...
He never was. He is democrat ... I'm sorry, frigging democrat.
It will be shocking when you see how cheaply he actually sold his soul today.......and on what a flimsy basis. A piece of paper from the world champeen liar of all time? It looks almost as though he was LOOKING for an excuse to cave and vote for this atrocity! IMHO
Republicans should read this Susan B. Anthony statement out loud and in it's entirety on the House Floor tonight, right now! Let Stupak hear it, let every so-called pro-life dem hear it loud and clear.
Stupak 30 silver pieces. Get ready to be villified for life
I wonder how many Catholics (CINOs and the real ones) plus pro-life people contributed to these people.
Stupak's gang - "cause killin babies on Sunday is the right thing for Stupak to do."
Stupak sold out babies to a Muslim on a Sunday.
Luke 4:5-8
4:5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
4:6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
4:7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
4:8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
All pro-life organizations should immediately announce they will never again support any demonrat, if they are to have credibility.
You cannot support the Rats and be pro-life. That would be contradictory
I hope Stupidpak gets his a$$ royally kicked so hard to the curb that his progeny will be born with a bootprint ingrained on their hindquarters. The day will come when we will use a red hot branding iron to permanently burn a mark into the flesh of these traitors... Then again, we may dispense with that formality and just hang them outright.
This sham of an executive order will be rescinded at the very first political opportunity by the abortion enthusiast in the White House, and millions more babies will be massacred at taxpayer expense. I wonder what the Copay will be. Fifty dollars probably.
So far I don't see it happening. I keep wondering what it's going to take until we hear stories involving bullets, gasoline, and thermite, but I think it's actually going to take the Left making the first move. That said, the Left is probably still too smart for that — for instance, if Obama's minions ever decided to try an L.A. Riots on my street, I GUARANTEE that none of them would get within 100' of my position.
National Right to Life were fooled into beleiveing he was and bullied the Republicans into supporting the Stupak bill back in Novemeber.
They are a foolish, evil organization.
O-bastard does not even need to rescind his E.O. An E.O. has no authority beyond the Executive branch of influence. Legislation and statute law cannot be over-ruled by an E.O. ... That is what makes Stupidpak's capitulation so grossly pathetic.
Co-pay on abortions? I bet Obama will give the woman killing her baby a $50 voucher and credit the abortion mill $5,000. They will have express lines. Stupak did this on a Sunday. Obama and Rahm picked Sunday to rub it in Christians faces.
We need to quit buying pigs in a polk.
We need to make them feel heat, too.
Stupak made the difference.
.....a TRAGIC story. Stupak is a FOOL, and will go down in history as a sell-out; a sad PUNK. He coulda been a contender. So close. Then he SOLD OUT.
.......the Tragedy unfolds.........
So sorry for anyone in Michigan....and Country-wide.

Maryann Martindale, executive director of the Alliance for a Better Utah, has released the following statement.
"It would be naïve to believe that this is the extent of bad behavior in Utah politics. Robust ethics laws, campaign finance reform and voter election reform, including independent redistricting and competitive elections, are all crucial to curbing corruption in Utah politics and for restoring the public trust. These arrests are the beginning. The legislature must also do its part and pass reasonable legislation to further discourage this type of behavior."

Our positive attitude begins and ends with us. We have to own the fact that we are in control of our emotions and our attitudes, not anyone else and certainly not any circumstance.
Is that too much to handle? Is it too hard to swallow that one?
I'll bet for some of you it probably is. So whether you count yourself as one of the purely positive people who will see the sunshine in everything or believe yourself to be a "Debbie Downer" or "glass is half empty or even always empty" type of individual, keep reading because this column is for you.
Most of the emails and feedback I receive regarding this column are extremely positive and encouraging. Every once in a while I will get challenged on a thought or issue and enter into a healthy debate, discussion or email exchange from someone in the community. And believe it or not, I do actually receive communications from people who simply find my words and concepts to be, as one such reader shared, "Over the top Pollyanna-ish." Further stating that I "did not possibly have a clue about what was happening in the 'real' world or with 'real' people."
Hate mail, can you believe it, I sometimes receive hate mail? Well maybe not so much hate mail, but definitely angry mail.
Whenever this happens I never take it personally, and I refuse to allow the comments to sway my opinion or belief in the goodness of people, the wonder or life, and the amazement of each day. But you see for me it is easy to look for the good, the wonder, and the amazement in everything because I have been blessed with some of the greatest friends, former bosses, and mentors that anyone could ask for. And more importantly I took responsibility a long time ago for choosing who and what would be allowed to influence my outlook on life. I took ownership of my positive attitude.
One such friend, mentor and former boss is Zig Ziglar. Mr. Ziglar is still recognized as one of the greatest if not the greatest motivational speaker of all time. For those of you who never had the good fortune to see him speak, read his books, or listen to his audio programs before he retired, I encourage you to check out his website at www.ziglar.com and give yourself the gift of a lifetime by allowing his words and wisdom to help inspire and motivate you as much as they have shaped and influenced my life. You can call them at 972-383-3223 and tell them Michael Norton sent you for a special discount.
One of the key Ziggism's and words that I live by in good times as well as difficult or challenging times is this, "A positive mental attitude will not allow you to do anything ... but a positive mental attitude will allow you to do everything, and I do mean everything, 100 percent better than a negative attitude will." This one sentence, this simple thought, this common sense approach changed my life once I internalized its meaning. This thought has provided me with an "out" to every hardship, challenge, dilemma, and problem that I just might face relative to the way I handle things.
It's not about being "Pollyanna-ish" or turning a blind eye to reality. It is about recognizing that we own our outlook and attitude in the face of our doubts and fears, bills and debt, childcare and healthcare, crisis and catastrophe, opportunity and accomplishment, hope and encouragement, and gratitude and appreciation. Imagine what your 2012 can look like once you adopt a positive attitude philosophy for your life.
I would love to hear what choice you will make when it comes to owning your positive attitude at firstname.lastname@example.com and not if, but when you make your choice, I am confident that it will be a better than good week for you.

Activists say 5,000 killed in Syria in August
Two Syrian activist groups say about 5,000 people were killed in Syria in August, making it the deadliest month since the uprising began more than 17 months ago.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Sunday that 5,440 people, including 4,114 civilians were killed.
The Local Coordination Committees, another activist group, said 4,933 civilians were killed in August.
The civil war witnessed a major turning point in August when President Bashar Assad's forces began widely using air power for the first time to crush the revolt.
The fighting also reached Syria's largest city, Aleppo, which had been relatively quiet for most of the revolt.

The Voights together and Mario and Ali slightly awkward I bet.
Sarah looks good there.
The rest are somewhat boring.
Angie's collarbones look dangerousReplyCancel
Ummm… Ali Landry's little girl is cute and Elle's dress is pretty.
That's all I've got.ReplyCancel
Oh, and Shiloh's a dude now right?ReplyCancel
Either Angie is hiding one of her kids under that giant Jack Off Jill haute couture gown or it's an elaborate restraining device to keep her right thigh in check this time…ReplyCancel
abbiesgail – Welcome!!!
Lady H I was wondering the same thing. They're missing a kid.
Yes Marie. Shiloh likes to dress like a boy. She identified early and thank the heavens Angie (and Brad too) isn't suppressing it. She'll grow up more adjusted than other children who do because of that support and I applaud her.ReplyCancel
I agree re: Ali Landry kiddo. And Emily Osmet's name made me expect a Cockney version of the kid from The Sixth Sense. SO DISAPPOINTEDReplyCancel
Holy Jeebus! Elle's neck is long enough to eat the leaves from the highest treetop.ReplyCancel
Angie's dress really looks like a garbage bag.
@Riven: thank you very much for the Jon Voight coital image ahhhggg…
I remember some BI about him being a sex addict or something…in fact I remember also this from this year's Golden Globes: him checking out, staring women from behind…
Brad should be careful. He could put an eye out on one of Angie's collarbones!ReplyCancel

@Renoblondee I agree – everyone seems to be jumping on the trans bandwagon (transwagon?) over Shiloh. Hell if my parents had given me a choice about what to wear, I wouldn't have worn a dress ever when I was school age. I was definitely into being active (can't they come up with something better than Tomboy? It sounds like that's a bad thing). Where is it written that females must want to dress in pink frills or dresses or any of that stuff to be "normal"? I applaud Brad and Angie for not trying to cram some antiquated notion of "proper" attire on their kids. She doesn't like to wear dresses or girly stuff, so what? Don't assume that means anything other than she doesn't like to wear girly stuff.ReplyCancel
Emily Osment played the best friend on Hannah Montana; nice to see she
did not grow up to be a train wreck (cough, Miley, cough).

my marriage,
February 18, 2012
Please pray for my marriage. My husband has been gone for 3 weeks. He told me he didnt love me anymore and didnt want to be married. He has struggled with a serious porn addiction and I fear Satan has a hold on him. Pray for God to intervene. I am brokenhearted and I see there are several others on here with similar stories. Satan is strong at work in marriages. Pray for deliverance and peace for those of us facing this horrible pain.

A Guide To Olli Jokinen For Jets Fans
Kent Wilson
January 24 2013 04:10PM
Apparently Olli Jokinen landed in Winnipeg after his second stint ended in Calgary this off-season. And now he's playing with Evander Kane in the Jets top six and has already collected an impressive 0 points in three games played.
As a native Flames fan I have naturally had many years (on more than one occasion) to observe Olli's foibles as an NHL player and I feel it's my duty to report to his new fans just what kind of player Jokinen is. To start, I can safely say he's a bit like the proverbial Frogurt.
That's Good!
Olli's head and face are comically large and he's usually wearing a grotesque, alien-ish expression.
Naturally, this is all fertile ground for funny references, cruel nicknames and endless photoshop fun. Observe (be sure to click the link):
By the end of his tenure in Calgary, Olli had collected at least a half dozen unique but highly applicable nicknames (Olli Postagain, CHUD, Sex Panther...). Let's see what Jets fans can come up with over the next two seasons.
BONUS - Olli can also be hilariously curt and blunt with the media. Combine that with his still thick Finnish accent and his interviews tend to be fairly entertaining, regardless of what he's talking about.
That's Bad.
getting back to Jokinen's performance on the ice, he unfortunately tends to favor needlessly convoluted routes around the ice. Kinda like those terrible Family Circus cartoons.
So, instead of, say, breaking up the boards when his defenseman has the puck in the defensive zone, Olli will occasionally swoop back towards his own net, behind it, skate around the guy with the puck, change on the fly, hop back on the ice and then swoop back around his own net again. This obviously makes passing to him rather challenging, although it can also serve to confuse the opposition as well as the refs and fans.
Brent Sutter seemed to have mostly broken Jokinen of this idiosyncrasy in Calgary, but now that he's out of the Gargoylian glare of the erstwhile Flames coach he might just revert back to his bad habits.
That's Good!
Olli can blast the puck. Just hammer it.
The one Olli strength I would always lead with when writing his scouting report is he can rifle the biscuit. He might not always be laser accurate, but both his slapshot and wrist shot are hard and heavy.
His shot is the main reason Jokinen spent a few years in the SE division scoring 30+ goals for the Florida Panthers - he would set up at the sideboards or on the point during the PP and just bomb away all day long. It takes more than that to score 30+ goals in the rest of the NHL (which is why he hasn't managed the feat since leaving Miami) but it remains perhaps his best, most enduring asset.
That's Bad.
Sometimes it looks like Olli is stickhandling a brick with a fly fishing rod when he handles the puck. This is especially true when he winds up in the neutral zone and gets moving towards the offensive end. This, however, doesn't necessarily deter Jokinen from trying moves at the opposition's blueline which frequently and frustratingly results in the puck being turned over more than once over the course of a game.
Olli doesn't have the best on-ice vision either. He's a skater and shooter first and a passer fourth if you catch my drift. He'll move the puck if he thinks he has to and/or if the pass is really obvious, but don't look for him to dish saucers through traffic or find the late man. This general lack of feel and awareness can also result in offensive pressure defused by a puck shot wide or chipped into the skates of a teammate (or the waiting stick of a bad guy).
That's Good!
Although he's a big dude at 6'3" and 210 pounds, with a bit of room Jokinen can really get moving. Olli doesn't possess the most fluid stride in the league but he can nevertheless can power himself to an above average velocity which, when combined with his size, can make him difficult to stop in full stride.
Assuming he doesn't mishandle the puck or pass it two feet behind his winger, of course.
Anyways, Olli's funny looking and he's hilarious to listen to and use as a subject in photoshops. He has a few definite strengths as a player (shot, speed) that can be somewhat undermined by his obvious weaknesses (visions, puckhandling, curious decision making). From a coaching perspective, Olli is most useful on the PP since he can sit on the sideboards and unleash his howitzer. Also, ideally you won't want him to play against the other team's superstars very often (the Flames did this the last two seasons by the way).
So enjoy Winnipeg!
I cannot believe you left off the Olli Jokinen waffle gif. http://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/2010/12/13/1873504/distract-jokinen-with-a-magic-waffle
I can't believe no one has commented on this article yet. Where are all the hardcore Jets fans?
Very accurate and comical description of Jokinens game. I found that the easiest way to like him was to bring my expectations for him down. By a good 3 or 4 notches.
He'll be productive as a 2nd liner with really smart linemates. Probably Wellwood on one side and take your pick on the other. Just don't expect him to be the big #1 centre between Kane and Wheeler.
Good article, Kent!

It's funny cause it's true.
Well done Kent, you pretty much nailed it.. Jokinen can be a useful player, but I be much more comfortable if he were the 3rd line pivot and not the #1. I also agree he can be a useful option on the PP. For Jokinen to succeed he needs 2 pass first line mates, that can move the puck north.
I can't believe Bib has chimed in?

If Patrice Bergeron is out for more than the first two games, the Bruins will be in tough against the Lightning. Bergeron has been great, and if he is out then the Nathan Horton line will have to carry more of the load. Horton's line was dominant against Philly, and it will be interesting to see if Eric Brewer and Matthias Ohlund can control that line starting Saturday.
Besides Sidney Crosby, I don't think anyone is better than Pavel Datsyuk. He has unbelievable skill in the offensive zone, but his dogged determination on the puck in the other zones separates him from all the rest. If he cheated defensively now and then I bet he'd score 110 points every year.
Do you remember when Philadelphia offered Ryan Kesler $1.9 million on a one-year deal in September of 2006. Many around the league thought the Flyers were just being dickish, but it sure looks like they knew something about Kesler that the rest of the league hadn't seen until last year.
Hate it or love it when it comes to the Canucks or Kesler, eve to admit he is a hell of a player. I don't think it is a coincidence that once he stopped be so prickly towards the media off the ice, and so mouthy on the ice that his play improved. It wastes a lot of mental energy sparing with the media, especially in Vancouver where many, but not all, of them truly love the Canucks.
The first round of this year's playoffs was the best two-week stretch of hockey I've seen in years, and I'm including the Olympics. We had nine straight days of overtime games, four games sevens and I can't recall an entire country, excluding BC, cheering so hard for one team to lose. It was awesome.
Jeremy Roenick went a bit far with the word "gutless" when describing Patrick Marleau's play so far in the playoffs, but had he just used lazy or "void of caring" I doubt anyone would have complained. It is Roenick's job to speak his mind.
The next day Jeff Marek tweeted that Roenick stood them up for a radio interview. I thought that was just as classless to be honest. I've had many guests either flat out forget about an appearance or blow it off because of a meeting and I didn't complain on twitter about it.
Turns out Roenick was having a surprise lunch with his wife and kids and ended up doing the show the next day.
Analysts are paid to rip or applaud a player's performance. That doesn't give radio hosts a license to moan publicly when a guy doesn't come on their show.

BufferBox lets consumers have items delivered to lockers in Canada.
Allison Enright
Google Inc. has bought BufferBox Inc., a service that lets consumers have their web orders delivered to secured lockers in the Toronto metropolitan area. The BufferBox lockers are located in grocery stores and railway stations. A consumer unlocks the locker via a PIN code sent via e-mail by the company.
The companies did not disclose the terms of the acquisition. BufferBox Inc., which launched less than two years ago and has 10 employees, operates out of the same building in Kitchener, ON, as Google's Canadian development office. There are about 20 BufferBox lockers in the Toronto area and the company has said it wants to expand that to about 100 by the end of next year.
"We couldn't be happier to be able to continue building out our vision within Google," the founders of BufferBox wrote in a blog post announcing the acquisition. "As online shopping becomes a bigger part of how you buy products, we look forward to playing a part in bringing that experience to the next level."
The move by Google is another example of how the search giant is moving to play a bigger role in e-commerce.
"We want to remove as much friction as possible from the shopping experience, while helping consumers save time and money, and we think the BufferBox team has a lot of great ideas around how to do that," a Google spokeswoman says.
Google last week acquired Incentive Targeting Inc., an online marketing and couponing service that works primarily with grocery stores.
The BufferBox service operates similarly to Amazon.com Inc.'s Lockers service, which launched about a year ago. Amazon has lockers in locations such as convenience stores, drug stores and grocery stores. Retailers Staples Inc. and RadioShack also have Amazon Lockers in some stores. Amazon.com is No. 1 in Internet Retailer's Top 500 Guide. Staples is No. 2 and RadioShack is No. 275. Last month, e-commerce delivery service ShopRunner opened 100 "PickupPoints" where online shoppers can collect their purchases at retail and convenience stores in the Philadelphia metro area.

Student Spotlight
JD Candidate '14 | Undergraduate Institution/Major: University of Michigan/Political Science | Division: Day
Why did you choose UDM Law?
I knew I wanted to attend law school in the Detroit area, and decided after lunch with the dean that I wanted to go to UDM. All of the people that I met at the lunch were enthusiastic, and it felt like the kind of school where you could receive a lot of one-on-one time with professors and staff.
What do you like best about attending law school in Detroit?
There is always something going on in Detroit—it's never boring. UDM Law has a lot of events at local places, and sometimes sets up outings to see the different sports teams based in Detroit. It's great to get be in Detroit as it's up and coming.
How would you describe the UDM Law community?
The community at UDM Law is very tight-knit. It really becomes like a kind of second family here because you're doing this thing together. It's important to feel that from a law school because it can be daunting at times.
What have you benefitted from the most at UDM Law?
The Moot Court program has been the most beneficial to me in terms of my writing and speaking abilities and my confidence in my knowledge of the law. The program is full of talented students and faculty who actively and passionately help us prepare to be the best advocates.
Where would you like to be ten years from now, and what role will your UDM education or the UDM community play in getting you there?
In ten years, I hope to be a partner at a large law firm in Detroit. My UDM education has already helped me on my first step towards that goal, as I received an associate position at Dickinson Wright as a result of the On Campus Interview process at UDM.
Why would you recommend UDM Law to a prospective student?
I would recommend UDM Law to a prospective student because it is a community-based law school where students can thrive. Going to school in Detroit offers an additional incentive because it offers many opportunities to get involved in different facets of the law.

"The only issue I have with these shoes is the fact that they are so narrow! Before you wear them, I suggest putting on a pair of bulky socks and running your hair dryer over the sides to break them in. After I did this, they were perfect! There's a little bit of padding in the sole so they're comfortable to wear all day. I got them in pink and the color was as expected. They can be worn with jeans and a t-shirt or dressed up with skinnies and a cardigan or sweater. Great for work if you have to stand all day or just to wear on the weekend for running errands!"

The Massachusetts Association of Realtors says the number of sales and median selling prices for single-family homes in the state rose in August over the same month last year. But the group says upcoming flood insurance changes could derail the housing market's recovery.
The Biggert-Waters Act, passed by Congress last year and scheduled to take effect October 1st., is designed to financially shore up the debt-laden National Flood Insurance Program by increasing rates to more accurately reflect the real risk and costs of flooding. Some policy holders will see their insurance premiums rise by 25 percent per year starting next week. And that concerns Peter Ruffini of the Massachusetts Association of Realtors.
"We're not talking the difference of, you know, five hundred to two thousand dollars a year", he says. "In many cases what we're hearing out there from property owners is 10, 20, up to 50 thousand dollars for flood insurance. That's more than many folks are paying for their mortgage payments on an annual basis."
Moreover, Ruffini says, newly redrawn maps by FEMA – the Federal Emergency Management Agency – have now placed homes and commercial properties in flood zones for the first time, subjecting more owners to the increased insurance rates. Ruffini says the US House of Representatives has passed a proposal to delay the new rates for one year. His group is calling on the Senate to follow suit.
