Here's the getup out of the box:
And here's the first layer of paint (Vallejo chrome):
I also painted one of the thrusters green, but notice that the shade of green wasn't really right (Vallejo panzer green), so I'm going to have a try with another green today (Vallejo gunship green).
Updates will be posted as they happen. The build can also be fololowed on my blog: http://cr4nky.blogspot.com

Rufus Wainwright
Coming out as a homosexual while still in his teens, Wainwright sought solace in opera throughout his adolescent years, also becoming an enormous fan of performers including Edith Piaf, Al Jolson, and Judy Garland. After attending the prestigious Millbrook School in upstate New York, he briefly studied music at Montreal's McGill University, eventually turning away from classical performance toward pop and rock. Becoming a fixture on the Montreal club circuit, Wainwright soon cut a series of demos with producer Pierre Marchand; Loudon Wainwright III then passed a copy of the tape to friend Van Dyke Parks, who in turn handed it on to DreamWorks exec Lenny Waronker. The label signed him soon after, resulting in the release of Rufus Wainwright during the spring of 1998. The album landed on several critics' "Best of 1998" lists, while Wainwright spent the next few years touring and appearing sporadically on soundtracks (Shrek) and compilations (The McGarrigle Hour). His sophomore album, Poses, brought similar acclaim in mid-2001.
After spending much of 2001 and 2002 touring on his own and with Tori Amos, Wainwright settled into Bearsville Studio in Woodstock, New York with producer Marius de Vries to record sort of a double album. The first project, Want One, was released in September 2003, with Want Two following a year later. In 2007, he released both Release the Stars and Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall, a restaging of Garland's legendary Judy at Carnegie Hall performance from 1961. In 2010, Wainwright delivered his sixth studio album, the stripped-down All Days Are Nights: Songs for Lulu, a 12-track, Shakespeare-influenced collection of new material that relied almost solely on the artist's voice and piano. The following year, the musician embarked on his seventh album with the intention of returning to the ornate pop of his early days. The resulting Out of the Game, which was produced by Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse, Duran Duran), arrived in May 2012. It was followed by the concert album Live from the Artist's Den and the compilation Vibrate: The Best of Rufus Wainwright, both in 2014. A recording of his 2009 debut opera, the French-language Prima Donna, was released by Deutsche Grammophon in 2015. The label also put out his next studio album, Take All My Loves: 9 Shakespeare Sonnets, the following spring. Three of the musical sonnets had appeared on Songs for Lulu but were reworked for Take All My Loves, which commemorated the 400th anniversary of the Bard's death. Guests on the album included Helena Bonham Carter, Carrie Fisher, William Shatner, Martha Wainwright, and Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine, among several other actors and musicians as well as the BBC Symphony Orchestra. ~ Jason Ankeny

At work today, i was cleaning this oil heater. I had to get down really low to reach some areas and I was like "hey, this is a good way to strengthen my core for paintball." So I would sort of squat while cleaning for a few minutes at a time and I could feel it strengthening my abs/ core, which is useful in paintball.
So my advice?
During a down time, find random shit that is down really low that no one ever bothers to clean. If this applies to your line of work. You will pass your shift faster, get conditioned for paintball, and get some props from your boss for being a "go getter."
If you have any other tips of working out while at work or school, post them here
This just occurred to me...

anything that forces your upper body "off center", works your core. Carrying a 5 gallon bottle of water while walking, overhead squats, situps and crunches
And actually, one of the best ab workouts is sprinting!

Just wondering who is attending this year? Is TDH going to have a table? I'll be there on Sunday for sure and trying to find a way to go Sat. but it's sold out... bust. So if I cant find a way in on sat I'll be there on Friday.
I plan on being there WED-Sun
Got my 4 day pass and hotel already!
All set with a 4 day and hotel with Bountyone.
I'll be there the whole time, look for the Galactic Marine :)
Ill be there for 4 days i can wait... I wont have my costume though Shipping my suit across the boarder would suck.
Anyone know if there will be a table?
Hopefully I'll be able to make it, we'll see!
Bump! :lol
I also got the 4-dayer and Hotel...:thumbsup
I will be there all four days also...
By back?!
What does that even mean...Jeez
I'm roomin with Devo and GCN, got that four day pass, no Star Wars costumes this year though.
I've got a 4 day pass but no plane ticket or hotel yet. Anyone need a roomie? :D
Myself and my girlfriend will be there this year. Will be my last one for a few years, but should be a great 4.5 days. =)
Won't have my armor but I will have my flask
I'll be there all 5 days. I missed last year due to the bar exam so I'm really excited this year.
I'll be there, but as Vader.
I tried to go last year but the truck accident on the 5 freeway made it impossible to get down there from LA. I have still never been to it. I have heard there are like 50 Boba Fetts that show up. How many will there be this year? If it weren't already sold out I would try to come but it seems to be quite difficult for me to plan that far ahead to buy tickets so early. It's a shame. Is there another way to get in for even just a little bit of time on Friday or Saturday?
I will be down there for the Video Games Live show that Thursday. A good friend of mine composed the music for Warcraft and its featured in the show. I highly recommend it if any of you have never been to see it. It's on the 23rd, Thursday night of comic-con, down there at Embarcadero Marina Park.
I know friday and saturday are the big days for costuming but I only got tickets for sunday. Anyone else gonna be suited up that day? I might go down on sat and try and find a way in.
Do Jangos count? :jango
We are few, but crazy.:cheers

I'm kind of thinking a Fusion with a 5 speed. Good mileage (from the 4 cylinder).
Or I could go the traditional Camry route.
Impalas get good highway mileage and have tons of room and are pretty reliable. What else?
The car has to be comfortable, even if its small. I really liked my buddy's 08 Focus 5 speed and we put all 4 of us in the car for a 6 hour road trip, and that wasn't bad at all. Even had a rear facing car seat at the time.
We're trying to cut down our monthly auto budget, and if I could get into a car that will be trouble free for a lot of miles and have no car payment, that would free us up to save up for something a bit more fun in a few years.
Your input, TCL?

11:30 a.m. 49A04-1305-CR-236. Indiana University South Bend. In April 2012, Donald A. Prout was arrested and charged with
four counts of class D felony theft based on evidence that he engaged in ghost employment with the Marion County Sheriff's
Department on four occasions. The State alleged that Prout clocked in at the Sheriff's Department and his part-time
security job at the same time, and thus he received double pay for those hours reported to both entities. Prout pleaded
not guilty on all counts. In September 2012, the State dismissed all charges against Prout, citing "Evidentiary
Problems." In December 2012, Prout filed a verified petition for expungement of his arrest records pursuant to
Indiana Code Section 35-38-5-1, asserting that expungement was appropriate because no offense had been committed and there
was an absence of probable cause. The trial court granted Prout's petition.
On appeal, the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department ("IMPD") argues that the trial court abused its discretion in granting Prout's petition for expungement because probable cause existed both at the time of Prout's arrest and at the time the charges were dismissed. The parties argue about which time in the proceedings – at arrest or at dismissal – that probable cause is required under Indiana Code Section 35-38-5-1. IMPD also asserts that Prout did not prove that he did not commit theft, which was his burden in the expungement proceedings. Prout asserts that IMPD's arguments are requests for this Court to reweigh the evidence and judge the credibility of witnesses.

They've redone packaging, formulations, and added a whole bunch of new shades, including some new Creaseless Cream Shadows (which are some of my faves). I'll try to do some reviews and such once it gets closer to the launch date! :)
Had to include a quick snapshot of the Benefit Headquarters... how adorable is this? The whole place is decorated impeccably, we never wanted to leave!
I was thrilled to know that a good chunk of the weekend would be spent sight-seeing, as I'm a newbie to San Fran. We got to go see the "Painted Ladies", which are the houses featured in Full House! The Full House House is the yellow one in the very middle!
Here's one of my favorites of the whole group, we all had so much fun together!
Here I am in front of a Benefit boutique... 'bout to get some brows waxed!
And here some of us are trying to pose in the window... and instead knocking everything over while the Benefit girls laughed!
Okay, that's better!
And of course, you can't visit San Francisco for the first time and skip the Golden Gate Bridge!! Here's a few group shots!
Love this one with Lindsey (beautybaby44) and Kristee (strawberryelectric48)!
We also got to hit the town in a hot pink stretch hummer... it was SO much fun!
And last, but certainly not least, I FOUND THE SAN FRANCISCO MUG FOR MY COLLECTION!! I was so happy! I now have four cities and am so proud.
I took a bunch of video footage while I was there, so if you want to see more, check out this video! Big thank you to Benefit for such a fun weekend! :)
xx, Allison

Yesterday I read that students of the martial arts have decided that cauliflower ear is now actually cool. When they get hit in the ear and the ear gets damaged from repeated trauma, many of these athletes elect not to have the treatment to correct the injury, seeing it as a badge of honor.
And everyone knows that talking on the phone also can lead to a minor version of this malady.
So I have decided, since I don't box, fight, or wrestle, that I will begin to schedule more conference calls.
Calls at 7AM on Monday mornings. Calls at 3AM to keep the worldwide teams happy. Calls about benchmarks that nobody cares about.
Weekly calls will become daily. Calls scheduled for one hour will now become two. Meeting participants will be allowed to babble on and on.
How cool is that ?

DarkBASIC allows you to create your own games, demos, slideshows, even business applications using the easy to understand BASIC programming language. Even if you've never coded before, just follow the in-depth tutorials and you'll be generating results in minutes! Harness the power of Direct X and make 3D objects come to life in just a few simple commands.
What Makes DarkBASIC So Special?
For the first time ever, the power of the PC and Microsoft's game engine Direct X can now be controlled by everyday PC users. It's no longer the sole domain of the expert 'C' programmer. Anyone with a PC can now make 3D objects move around the screen interacting with other game objects and taking live responses from the game player's inputs.
All games created with DarkBASIC are license and royalty FREE!
All games can be distributed as a stand alone executable!
|General Features
|2D Features
Automated Double Buffering
10 Image Formats Supported
|3D Features
|Misc. Features
X and 3DS Files Supported
Mouse Control
Other people are! So there is no reason why you can't too. If you've got the dedication and skill then you could produce a game worthy of retail with DarkBASIC. A number of DarkBASIC developers release their games into the Shareware market selling via their own web sites. Others have their games sold via independant distributors and publishers. If it's really good you can even find your game appearing on magazine CDs which is what happened to Star Wraith 3, featured in the PC Zone magazine for a number of months running.
We can all sympathise with this - no-one is born knowing how to program a computer game and at times it can seem like a very distant and alien language. We were well aware of this when we designed DarkBASIC and tried our hardest to create a language that is as easy to read as it is powerful. Have a look at the example commands below - see if you can work out what they would do in your game:
XRotate Object 1, 180
Scale Sprite 1, 100
Mirror Bitmap 1
Set Text Font "Arial"
Set Light To Object Position
If Joystick Fire A() Then GoSub PlayerShoot
If you've got this far then with a little determination and learning you could teach yourself all you need to know about programming with DarkBASIC. For extra help along the way there are free on-line tutorials to learn from.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
In that thread "who pets my puppy or dog" same deal you sit the rules. Puppies are crazy but you can still expect a stay or sit. Shoot for it at any rate.
You have to set limits, if he "expects" to be greeted with gusto by "everyone" he sees that's going to be a problem also!
After I got Rocky's people issue fixed I've relaxed somewhat but still careful with kids. But I got rolled by a 12 yr old? I told him "NO" he asked why not?? I was stunned and did not really have an answer! I really couldn't say "he"s in training" any more.
So I let him pet Rocky and Rocky was fine. When I was concerned about him biting the crap out of people I had to "grow a pair" as it were.
Apparently now that "the people issues" is over my "pair" have kinda shrunk!
But back to your topic if you truly want to send this dog on his way, then the "dual training" has to stop! If the dog is going to be your pet fine, other wise your husband is sitting him up for failure.
Ugh yeah the leash walking thing, that would get to me.....
I have a command for loose leash walking but when hubs walks the dogs he just lets them pull, he doesn't try to correct. So they know with him they can pull, with me not.....
I have high expectations too. My hubby let's the dog get away with more than I ever would. Some of his training methods are questionable. For instance when he first took Boris for a walk ( more like Boris took him for a drag) his way of getting the dog to heel was to let him get all the way out to the end of the lead and then jerk on the lead like he was trying to get a kink out of a hose. It looked painful and ridiculas. My poor baby looked like a yoyo. Then I took him out with a bag of treats and went slow/fast lots of direction changes/sits and lots of rewards. He does pretty good now. SuperG did you alpha roll your wife? Lol. If I did that to my hubby I think he would think I was initiating something else. ....lol.
Sent from Petguide.com Free App
LOL!! Getting the list of commands reminds me...When I started basic training with hubs little Aussie I asked him what commands would you like to use. He told me. I used the commands he wanted for his dog. What happens ...I catch him outside playing with her using different commands at different times throughout their playtime. Oh well. In this case it's his dog, she's great and he's not going to compete with her in OB or anything of that nature. She minds me very well so it all works out.
With my two GSDs he doesn't "train" them. He just helps take care of them using what ever commands he wants. They know the routine so usually commands aren't needed and I don't care because I train with German commands and I didn't even try to get hubs on board with it. So he can futz around with them in the backyard and say whatever he wants but he doesn't affect my training because he doesn't use my commands which I've worked on and reinforced.
So.....if you can't get consistently on the same page my suggestion is to just pare it down to the important safety things like recall, keep gates closed, no door dashing that you two will be consistent on. Then you take the reins on the training, use commands in another language (doesn't matter which) so your commands are clear and consistent. Then just kick back and and let him have his relationship with the dog. More often then not, training the other human is just an exercise in frustration.
It can actually be amusing at times.
I have somewhat the same situation at times but more focused on the expectations of command, control and execution. I have much higher expectations of my dog's performance than my wife's expectations...which has made me wonder if my efforts are being somewhat diluted by my wife's more forgiving expectations of the dog's performance. The thread is located here http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum...ectations.html
Much of the advice given by others was beneficial especially regarding your question " Will my hubby confuse the dog by suddenly changing the meanings if commands?".
I have also found that my use of hand signals tempers the problem you might be experiencing regarding two different verbal commands for the same action i.e. "drop" and "out". I strive to train the dog primarily with hand signals versus verbal commands once the dog has associated the two...so others can say whatever they choose and it does not dilute my hand signals even if it is for the same desired result. I would think it should be very easy for the two of you to sync up on the exact same hand signals regardless of whatever verbal command accompanies the hand signal if any at all.
Dogs are smart and obviously many breeds including a GSD are very smart. With that in mind, your dog will soon learn ( if not already ) who means what they say. My wife "hopes" the dog will comply to her request while our dog knows I mean what I say because I don't "hope"...I expect, plain and simple. Our dog's understanding of the differences between the two of us is simply that...we are two different humans with different expectations...and the dog absolutely knows this. Yes, I appreciate the frustrations which can be created by two individuals who are not on the exact same page when it comes to training the same dog but it is not something that is a deal breaker as far as the dog's education goes....but of course I would prefer, all those involved in a dog's training to be on the same wavelength.
"Should I be concerned about my hubby imitating play biting?"....I'm guilty of the same charge. When I choose to let the dog blow some steam off at times I have no compunctions whatsoever if we romp and she uses her jaws in a playful manner. However, when she used to get a bit more "playful" than my idea of fun...I would simply disengage the exchange. Let's face it, the set of tools a GSD has is much more formidable than some of us give them credit for....so I think the exercise all on it's own has value as the play biting can be taught to only reach a certain level which in turn creates a bite inhibition which is acceptable for playtime. My pooch like our others in the past, has figured out it prolongs roughhousing if she gingerly grabs hold of a loose sleeve or pant leg than using a tad bit too much bite pressure on a forearm...needless to say, a few of my sweatshirts have really long arms on them from her fun time. Granted, this type of interaction of roughhousing is my choice and most likely not the choice for all. However, when I am on the ground letting her have the upper hand ( in a toned down fashion ) and she has my sweatshirt sleeve in her jaws tugging away.....I do wonder what the neighbors might be thinking...ahhh but who cares.
Oh, by the way....my pooch is 18 months as well and it seems like a magical time as she is truly coming on line and now has such a focus on learning....it's truly amazing how quickly they learn at this age.
|Make life easier on yourself - get your DH to list the commands that he'll be consistent with and just go with that
I'll put it next to the honey do list...lol.

|There isnt a book of ""proper commands"" in my opinion. i could teach my dog to sit every time I said the word potato. you guys just need to communicate with eachother and get on the same page. Maybe sit down and write out the commands that you guys want to use and tape it to the fridge.
Thanks again all. I really appreciate the input. It is very frustrating. My hubby gets all but hurt/angry because I point it out. I'm not sure how to bring it up without him getting mad at me. What's a good book that spells out the proper commands? Maybe if he reads it the light bulb will turn on.

the words thing can be fixed. I think the dog gets the idea that out from a toy means a different thing when you point and say "get out". Even if you add get they can probably tell. Aus vs out if you want.
Also dogs can understand two different command words for one action so as long as you spend time with each word 'look at me' and 'watch me', you'll eventually get the same result. My dog knows "fuss" (I can't make that german letter on this comp) and "with me" for heel. One's casual, one I want her focusing.
""and"working" with him very sporadically 1 or 2 times a week""
I personally agree that training should be more sporadic and random vs on a set schedule. if you train every day at 1 o clock it's a boring routine. If your dog never knows when to expect training it becomes more fun.
as far as roughhousing and play biting, I play with my dog rough. She loves to lay on her back and kick and nip at me and she doesn't try that game with other people. If your dog overgeneralizes you just teach a gentle command. When mine gets too rough I just say "HEY" in a sharp voice and end the game for a minute or two and she calms down. Sometimes if I can tell she's playful I'll just walk up and shove her lightly and it's game on lol. As long as you teach rules and when it stops.

Share Bad Photos
Posted 15 April 2013 - 07:09 AM
Here is an interesting thought, we all share good photographs clicked by us and then discuss about how brilliant it is.
How about sharing bad photographs or the shots you have tried clicking many times and still not able to get it? Share such photographs and discuss in the community about how to get it right. Wouldn't that be great learning experience?

brilliant idea
u r really thinking out of box
Posted 07 July 2013 - 08:09 AM
hmm I had plenty of bad photos I did not delete them its all in my computer. Ill join the fun and upload some of my worst photos.
Posted 27 July 2013 - 07:54 AM
This should be interesting. I can't wait to see those bad photos.
Buying a nikon dslr camera doesn't make you a photographer. It makes you a Nikon owner.

yes, It must be good!
Hoping more picture you can provide...
I am waiting for it!

I totally agree with you! That's one of the reasons that I said he should move away...I don't want him to turn into a bad character just for the sake of Jasmine and Crosby. However, to add more depth to the show they will probably keep him there at least for a season or two.+1000!!Pretty good episode this week. (but not as intense as the last couple in my opinion )
Did you guys know that they tried to make this show in the 90's and it was cancelled after one season? And that the whole thing is based on a movie with the same title?
I want Crosby and Jasmine back together right now! I think that by saying that she should be with the doctor makes it clear that he truly does love her and Jabar. He only wants the best for them and he can see that the doctor is a good man and will treat them right. This shows that he has grown up and matured and is ready for their relationship! I hope Jasmine realizes this (Although I can see it being hard to get back with a man that cheated on you). Maybe the writers can make the doctor move away or something....Haha
I'm glad Christina and Adam made up. I'm also glad Christina took the high road with Rachel, I thought that was very true to her character. The boy who plays Max is a wonderful actor especially for his age!
Hope Amber does well at her new job!
i said the exact same thing about maybe the dr. would move away or something. i don't want him to turn into a bad guy but i like the idea of him going away, well not really because he's so damn fine to watch!!! it is a more interesting layer to the show to see how jabar acts with the adults in his life and i think it's positive to see the good side of mommy has a boyfriend. so many men don't want to raise someone elses kids or even acknowledge them so the dr.'s love for jabar is positive. plus (and i'm biased here) i love that a black man is a dr on a show and being adoring to a black woman and her son.
agree that i like christina and adam and loved when they said "you're my best friend"...and i also agree that max is SO believable and annie's reaction was also realistic!
i still feel bad for julia! i hope that girl comes around or she's going to lose her chance for getting her baby a good home. i think she'll leave him on her doorstep or something dramatic. she's a bit unstable. still wanting that boys love when it's not there. i am confused, is julia unable to get pregnant again? was she pregnant with her daughter or did they adopt?
so sarah and her guy might have a baby? eek! exciting. what's there age difference? i just remember she turned 40 this season and had that party.
Adam and Christina's emotional scenes are so good! Adam also says the sweetest things.
I forgot about Sarah and the teacher! Maybe they will have a baby... I mean, he is younger (idk by how much either) and she'll probably feel like he deserves the chance to have children. Maybe she'll think it'll be better this time around since he seems like a stand-up guy compared to her ex-husband.
The pregnant teenager, Zoey, is very unstable. I hope her boyfriend doesn't do something crazy. (He's controlling and Zoey says it's because "he loves her"...classic excuse. I can see him getting angry very quickly). Did a little digging and....Julia was told that she had scarring on her uterus and that it would be hard to get pregnant again.

I finally bought one of those Magal stocks from Blackthorne. A couple of years ago the "inventory" counter on their site said "more than 999 in stock." Now they're showing 22 left.
Panaceabeachbum built one a few years ago, and I found someone else, but other than those two, bupkis.
So, where all all the Magal buiilds? Surely there are more than two!

|Ok, I'll respond to you guys in email
Hi Optikal,
We want you to be completely stoked with anything that you have purchased from us. If the boots are too large (or one of them is) for your feet, that is an easily solveable issue. Same with the bindings.
Let's start here. What boot size did you order?
Please measure your foot using this method:
Kick your heel (barefoot please, no socks) back against a wall. Mark the floor exactly at the tip of your toe (the one that sticks out furthest - which toe this is will vary by rider). Measure from the mark on the floor to the wall. That is your foot length and is the only measurement that you will want to use. Measure in centimeters if possible, but if not, take inches and multiply by 2.54 (example: an 11.25 inch foot x 2.54 = 28.57 centimeters).
PS: Please measure both feet.
From our fit tips:
Your boots should be snug!
The most common complaint about boots is that they are too loose, not to tight. The junction between rider and board begins with the boot, as it is in the most direct contact with the rider. When fitting boots, use the following method: A. Slip into the boot. B. Kick your heel back against the ground several times to drive it back into the boot's heel pocket. C. Lace the boot tightly, as though you were going to ride. NOTE: This is where most sizing mistakes are made. A snowboard boot is shaped like an upside down "7". The back has a good degree of forward lean. Thus, when you drop into the boot, your heel may be resting up to an inch away from the back of the boot, and your toes may be jammed into the front of the boot. Until the boot is tightly laced, you will not know if it is a proper fit. D. Your toes should now have firm pressure against the front of the boot. As this is the crux of sizing, let's discuss firm pressure: When you flex your knee forward hard, the pressure should lighten, or cease, as your toes pull back. At no time should you feel numbness or lose circulation. Your toes will be in contact with the end of the boot, unlike in a properly fit street or athletic shoe (snowboard boots are designed to fit more snugly than your other shoes). When you have achieved this combination of firm pressure and no circulation loss, you have found the correct size!
If one boot is larger than the other, contact them because some online stores allow free exchanges even if they don't have free return shipping. I've never even heard of those brands. Maybe you should try returning the bindings (since you're not going to use them) and exchange the boots for a pair from a different brand. The Women's Summit boot from ThirtyTwo, which specializes in boots, is a little more expensive ($120) but it is easily one of the best beginner boots money can buy. It would last a good amount of seasons, and the liners are heat-moldable.
If your Burton bindings are ok, I would return the Siren bindings (another brand I've never heard of) and the boots, then get a pair of either Burton or ThirtyTwo boots.
As for the board, Camp Seven is a brand owned by wierdsport.com. It should be ok as most people I've known have started out with a bargain brand board. I had a 5150 Stroke, which was stiff, heavy, and caught the edges all the time! So don't worry about the board.
This would result in the Burton bindings and the board you have now, with better boots that will fit both your feet and your bindings well and will last a long time.
I think it would be worth paying the return shipping, but usually if you're nice you can talk them into sending you a free return shipping label. Tell them the boots were sized incorrectly and that you haven't used them yet (clean them up with a Clorox wipe or something). Also tell them you haven't used the bindings and they should give you a refund for both.
That's my advice. You don't have to take it but if the boots are really a problem then go for it. Good luck.
Ahhh. I ordered from Wiredsport, and got their 2013 womens faetherlite 150. They came with crappy siren leaf bindings that I swapped out for my 2005-2006 Burton customs. The boots I got with the board are system sublime womens.
In my reg work boots/ street shoes they feel fine. I'd rather not return them since I have to pay shipping for it to get returned and this is my first pair of boots that keep me warm for a full day on the slopes.
The angle that was more out was my front foot also, not my back. I ride regular and can switch easily. My stats: I'm about 140lbs with gear, 5'8" with size 10.5- 11 womens boot. I consider myself to be a beginner rider, This is my 3rd season riding after taking last winter off due to an accident on the slopes the year before. The years before I probably got 50 days in, this year so far I only got 1.
I meant the boots, bindings, and board you got. Brand names, boot model, etc.
By knowing exactly what you have I'd be able to tell you if it's the gear or just you, or find some good reviews that can.
It doesn't sound right with one boot feeling bigger than the other. In your regular shoes, do they feel the same on both feet?
Also, what website did you order them from? There are some dodgy dealers out there, so that might be a good thing to check. Don't heat mold them yet. You'll have to check the return policy first to make sure you'd still be able to return them if they don't work out.
You sound like you're new to snowboarding. Most people go through a phase of not knowing if their gear is decent or not when starting out. I thought my first setup was good, until the bindings broke and my toes always got cold in the boots. I also realized later on that going on the heel edge is more difficult with more negative angle on the back binding. I used to have them symmetrical, but that only made it harder for me and I progressed more slowly than the other guys I rode with.
|I changed it to +9, -9 from (haven't tried this one out yet), from the next notch past +15 and -9. I believe im 21.2 something wide stance, perfectly centered. When I'm carpet riding my first setup felt good on carpet but bad on the slopes. The 9's feel a little weird on the carpet but might feel good on the slopes. Been working tons so haven't had time to hit the slopes again...

Chapped Cheeks
Weather is crazy around the country and those cold temps continue. It was in the 80s this past weekend in Dallas but heading to the 20s this week!This really cold and dry winter has been hard on skin and I have seen more babies like this one who are coming in due to having "red cheeks".
These precious little red cheeks are just dry and chapped. The toddler set seems be particularly affected as they are always getting their faces wiped!! Between those winter runny noses which parents are constantly having to wipe and the wiping of faces after finger foods have been "smeared" from cheek to cheek, a toddler's face gets lots of wear and tear.
While it would seem that water on the face from lots of washing would be hydrating, it is actually not. At this time of year, a little less face washing is beneficial, but what toddler can go for more than an hour or so without having something washed off their face.
So to counteract all of the dryness requires lots of hydration with moisturizers. Right after washing, wiping your child's face you need to use a thick moisturizer. You cannot over moisturize your child during this time of year. I am a fan of Cerave Cream and Aquaphor. I often use Cerave (cream is thicker than the lotion) during the day and then lather on Aquaphor at bedtime!! The thick moisturizer helps hold the water into the skin. I was even known to rub Aquaphor on my own's childrens' faces once they were asleep, so they were not tempted to rub it off!!
Don't worry, once the weather warms up, the heat is off and the humidity starts those rosy little cheeks will fade away....unless that is you don't use sunscreen, but that is another blog!!

NHIAA Div. II Football Preview: Title road still runs through Plymouth
The Plymouth Regional High School football team has a new head coach this season. Chris Sanborn has replaced Chuck Lenahan, who retired after the 2013 season with a 356-70-1 record in 43 seasons as Plymouth's head coach.
What hasn't changed are the expectations in Plymouth. The Bobcats, who have won four championships in the last six years, still have targets on their backs.
Sanborn is a former Plymouth player who spent 15 seasons on Lenahan's staff. He'll have to fill the voids left by tight end/defensive end Kyle Reisert and running back/linebacker Jared Kuehl — both of whom are now playing at the University of New Hampshire — but will build around offensive lineman/defensive end Evan Bolognani, offensive tackle Jason Murray and defensive back Justin Robinson.
"I've been hearing about how tough it will be for Plymouth to replace the kids who graduated for years," Windham coach Bill Raycraft said. "Every year they just reload."
Kennett of Conway, St. Thomas Aquinas of Dover and Windham are among the teams that could unseat Plymouth.
Kennett is grouped with Plymouth in Division II North, a conference that may be the deepest in the division. The Eagles' returnees include offensive lineman Jacob Cameron, defensive end Nick Sherwood, linebacker/running back Nate Arnold and defensive back/wide receiver Nick Graziano, all of whom were all-conference selections a year ago.
Junior Will Pollard also returns for his third season as the team's starting quarterback.
One person who didn't return to Kennett is former head coach Mike Holderman, who took a head coaching job at the high school level in North Carolina. Vaughan Beckwith, an assistant on the Kennett staff last season, was hired as Kennett's interim head coach this season.
"It's still Plymouth until someone knocks them off, but I think Kennett's loaded," Lebanon coach Chris Childs said. "I think there's a good chance you'll see Kennett as a finalist. We're in such a tough (conference). We'll have to knock off one of the big dogs to make the playoffs."
St. Thomas returns 18 starters, including the entire defensive line from last season. The Saints are so deep that quarterback Trevor Martin will also be used at wide receiver this season, with Steven Hedberg moving under center.
"We're sitting pretty good right now in terms of experience," St. Thomas coach Eric Cumba said. "We have a lot of kids who have played a lot of football. Athletically, this could be the best team we've had in four years. Competitively, it's hard to gauge this team against some of the other good teams we've had in the last four years because we were in a different division then."
Merrimack Valley of Penacook may provide St. Thomas with its stiffest competition in Division II East. Merrimack Valley quarterback Ivan Niyomugabo has received scholarship offers from St. Anselm and the University of New Hampshire, and could be the top offensive player in the state.
Windham returns 19 starters from a team that finished first in Division II South a year ago. Those back include quarterback Brendan McInnis, running back/defensive back Kellin Bail and fullback/linebacker Kurtis Jolicoeur.
"We have the bulk of our guys back," Raycraft said. "This is definitely the most athletic and fastest team that we've had. We're not going to be biggest team from week to week, but our speed should make up for it."
Milford is another team with playoff potential from Division II South. Milford's strength will be in its offensive and defensive lines.
"There are a lot of linemen, but we had to replace our entire offensive backfield," Milford coach Keith Jones said.
Division II West may be the most wide-open of the four conferences. Sanborn of Kingston and Monadnock of Swanzey were the playoff representatives from this conference a year ago, but John Stark of Weare, ConVal of Peterborough and Hollis/Brookline may all be stronger this season than they were a year ago.
"Windham is probably returning the best group," Jones said. "But someone still has to dethrone Plymouth."

Where do varroa mites come from anyhow.I know they are spread hive to hive,but hypothetically,if most of the ferals were gone(So some say) and you started with a clean package(if that is possible). and all new equipment,where out in nature does a bee pick up this hitchhiker.
It must also thrive somewhere besides the honey bee colonies.There must be a prolific population of these out there somewhere. is it necessary for bees to go into an infecterd hive or have bees from a mite ridden colony visit your hive?Or do these creatures lurk in the fauna somewhere waiting for a host? I know this sounds like a chicken or egg first thing but I am curious!

Discussion in 'March 2012' started by roscoe36, Mar 26, 2012.
7:30 PM EST TV: FS Detroit / NBA league Pass Radio: 97.1 The Ticket
Full tank mode today........Charlotte by 28............
This is a seriously tough call. But Boris Diaw is now gone and I think the Bobcats are better for it. Although the double on Maggette would have been better. As much as I want the Pistons to get better, this team needs a player like Davis or MKG more than anyone in the league.
no gordon, no stuckey...no problem?
* Pistons playing at home * Charlotte is worst team in league (7-42) * Charlotte has lost 6 straight games * Charlotte is without its leading scorer (Magette) Add all that up and what do you get?
Pistons comeback from certain regulation loss to the Bobcats with a couple of threes by Brandon and Will I am, and a breakaway steal, bucket and FT conversion by Monroe. Lets see which team really wants to win this one...after all, I think Bobcats already have the # 1pick sewn up....
Charlotte got hosed on several calls in OT. No wonder they have only won 7 games...besides being sucky... Does anyone else find it strange that Charlotte's head coach lets his son coach a game every once in a while?
Pistons hold on in OT surviving a three point attempt by Charlotte's Reggie Williams to tie the game, after he had hit three pointer a few seconds earlier to bring the Bobcats within one. A couple of clutch FT's by the Isotayer and and sweet pass by Knight to Monroe where he cashed in on two FT's lifted the Pistons to their 19th win of the season and extended the Bobcats losing streak to 7.
You mean Charlotte right. That was best part of the game for me ...seeing the younger Silas drawing up plays and Dad just sitting their watching and not providing any input. He almost out coached Frankie..
What do you mean?
The Pistons should have one of Coach Frank's daughters run the team for a few games.
If her hair is cut short, you may not be able to tell them apart..
If the Pistons came into this game thinking it'd be as easy a win as their previous two against this same team, they were sadly mistaken. At certain points, even as late as 5 minutes through the fourth quarter, this looked like a Piston loss in the making with Charlotte up by double digits for some of it, but when it came to gut check time, they passed and got the win, as the esteemed Mr. Blaha aptly pointed out. More people than I'm used to seeing at the Palace as well, especially given the opponent, and they were great. Loud and cheering for their team, especially on that great run. Will Bynum - credit where it's due, despite his lackluster start and face palm worthy turnovers during the course of the game, he came up big for the Pistons with the game-tying 3 to force overtime. Couple of clutch FTs in OT as well. Liked his aggressiveness throughout the game as well, so long as he wasn't going 1 on 4. Good game from him. Brandon started cold and stayed cold during the first half, 0-3 with a goose egg on the scoring column but with 5 assists (finished with 6) at the half. He did better scoring wise in the third quarter, scoring 4, but came up big when it counted in the fourth with two critical 3 pointers that trimmed the Bobcats' 8 point lead down to size, scoring double digits for the third straight game (12 tonight). He did commit a potentially costly turnover trying to get it to Tayshaun late (he had 4 total), but he made up for that by contesting and getting a hand on Augustin's 3 attempt on the other end. He also had a pretty pass to Greg in OT that resulted in FTs for the big man. Good defense as well, tying Greg with 2 steals. Greg played really well, and started off great, being able to get pretty much anything he wanted against Biyombo down in the post early and late. His best play came when he stole the ball, took it all the way himself, got the bucket + a foul that was part of that regulation-ending run that made Bynum's heroics possible. He also played fairly well defensively for the most part, and had a terrific Ben-like swat of a Biyombo (iirc) shot in the second half. Hit some clutch free throws at the end of OT as well, off the aforementioned pass from Brandon. Greg finished one rebound shy of another double double with 16 points and 9 boards. It's great to have a big man who can hit his freebies, especially in the clutch. No hack-a-Gregs on the horizon for Piston opponents. Jonas had a great game, he was active all throughout, and hit a nice three in the fourth when they really needed it off a nice pass from Greg. He also had a nice tip in off a Tayshaun miss in overtime, where as George and Greg noted, he out jumped and out hustled Bismack Biyombo to get his team a two-point lead. He scored 18 off the bench on 8 of 11 shooting to go with 5 boards and 3 assists. Tayshaun was good, the Pistons' leading scorer with 24. He hit on a short hook in OT in between Bynum free throws and despite getting burned off a screen from Najera, he contested well on the next Bobcat 3 try and made his man miss that time. He's been playing pretty well since Stuck and BG have gone out, despite the not-so-awesome night against Chicago. Max started really well, getting blocks and a dunk over noted shot blocker Biyombo in the first quarter. Pretty good game from him as well, though he's clearly not very comfortable stepping out to contest jumpshooting big men like Mullins. Even TT got in a few jumpers. Daye was the Aye we all know and the one I was frustrated with this game. He started off well enough, getting a nifty layup off a nice pass from Greg in the first quarter, but disappeared on offense the rest of the way. He unfortunately played badly on defense after doing well his first 5 minutes, and went on to give up and 1s on weak hits on 3 of his 4 fouls. It was a classic game for him, stepping out of bounds and hesitating on his shots again. His confidence looked shot the whole game, and with good reason. BG and Stuck are coming back soon, so he doesn't have much time left to prove himself. Big Ben played pretty well too, and scored off a smooth-looking hook shot in the first quarter. They're going to miss him next year. Wilkins was pretty bad offensively, and had a particularly ugly turnover where despite having Greg in good position right next to him, he opted to make the long pass to Tay in the corner that was picked off very easily. Walker played some minutes due to foul trouble from Daye, and didn't do much, though he helped keep that ball movement alive for the most part. Unfortunately, this was also when Charlotte started the run that eventually had them up one at the half. Side note: Rodney looked animated on the bench. He was really supportive of his teammates and was often one of the first guys with his hand up out on the floor to give the other guys high fives. Nice to see a team that seem to really get along, win or lose. This game turned out more...exciting than expected, given the very real possibility of a ping pong ball friendly but potentially embarrassing loss to the even more lowly Bobcats - but they clawed their way into a gutsy win against a desperate team looking to stop a now 7 game losing skid, despite the sometimes tired-looking legs and missed shots off the front of the rim. Best stat of the night? They had 62 points in the paint.
Good recap Alexa...I agree that the energy of Will was one the catalysts in keeping the Pistons close . With only 14 games left and 7 games out of the last playoff spot, it may be time to give Macklin some of Wilkins PT.....this guy is clueless on the offensive end...
Thanks Dre. Yeah, I can't figure why Macklin's never gotten PT, but if he does get some, it probably won't be Wilkins' PT he'd be taking, imo. Agree Wilkins' offense sucks, though Frank seems willing to overlook that so long as he plays decent defense.
Ok, I have given up on a top five pick. It hurts to say this: the Pistons get the 8th or 9th pick. This is the last year this team will be losing like this and I wanted one more piece. I like seeing Monroe and Knight getting big minutes. The Pistons kept Stuckey and Gordon on the bench and but still couldn't lose it. Ouch! I like seeing JJ play well. But, he is not better at finishing around the hoop than earlier in the season. Those scoop shots and hooks display a lack of game around the rim and lack of coaching in his regard. Until he can score around the rim (he gets there a lot which is good), his offensive impact will be limited. How about sending the 8th pick to Sacramento for Cousins? Maybe he is available? Maybe Sacramento can be enticed to go in a different direction? One more young piece...just one more...
I though that was Michael Curry out there playing under an alias. Good game. Wins like this will give the guys some confidence. It was an accomplishment playing this game with both shooting guards out. Had trouble finding some offense until later in the 4th quarter. Nice comeback win and overtime victory.
Another late season game against a cellar dweller, another Piston win!

It's Tiger Day - The New Mac OS Launches
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: PC / Laptop, Software
I am thinking that, while only 5% of computers sold are Mac's, today's Tiger release is going to be a big deal. Despite the efforts of some to see that it didn't happen, Apple is going to be launching Tiger in a big way. Be sure to hit your local Apple Store to be a part of the festivities.
Black & White 2 Trailer
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: PC, Strategy
I have come to learn that Peter Molyneux's team over at Lionhead Studios can tend to me more flash than substance. I remember buying the original Black and White years ago at launch because of all that I had read about it for years prior to that. As it turned out, the game was just okay. Now, a trailer for the sequel has hit the Internet, and while it looks good, to me it seems a bit too close to the original. Take a look and decide for yourself.

Griffin TuneJuice 9-Volt iPod Battery Pack
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Accessories, Portable Audio / Video
If your iPod seems to be running out of steam at the most inopportune moments, then the Griffin TuneJuice might be your kind of thing. Simply put, it is a backup battery for dockable iPod/iPod mini units which is powered by a 9 volt battery. I can't even name the last time that I actually purchased a 9 volt battery, but maybe that's just me. The TuneJuice will provide another 8 hours of life to a partially charged iPod, but only 4 hours if the iPod is completely drained. You can pick one up for $20 bucks.

The Final Cut: A Look at The Hitchhiker's Guide Movie and History
Time for another weekly column, Gear Live style. Our new columnist, Devin Roberson, will be bringing you the latest from the entertainment world each week in her column, The Final Cut. Why Devin? Well, for starters she is into movies and television. Secondly, she jives with our steelo. This week she gives us a bit of background on The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy:
This Friday gives us the release of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", a movie based on a 1978 radio comedy series by Doug Adams, who also wrote the screenplay(along with Karey Kirkpatrick) for this film. Many fans of the Guide may also remember Adams' "trilogy" of 5 books(the series was first dubbed a trilogy after the release of the 3rd book, and the title has stuck ever since) that he began writing shortly after the radio series: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979), The Restaurant at the End of the Universe (1980), Life, the Universe, and Everything (1982), So Long and Thanks For All the Fish (1984), and Mostly Harmless (1992).

Tiger Direct Tries To Knock OS X Tiger Off Course
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Corporate News, Software
I love stupid lawsuits - they put a smile on my face. This is why I chuckled with glee as I read the email telling me of how Tiger Direct - one of the worst IT resellers around - has decided to sue Apple over the Tiger moniker. Apparently, they don't like how Apple has been referring to their new operating system as "Tiger", and go on to say that the suit is meant "to stop further damage to Tiger Direct's well-known Tiger brand." Wow. Good thing they waited until the day before Tiger is set to be released to drop that one on us. Good show.

iTunes Turns Two
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Portable Audio / Video, Software
For those not keeping track, today marks the two year anniversary of Apple's launch of the iTunes Music Store, accompanied by its proprietary DRM format which would only play on an iPod. Sure, Real has tried and tried again with Harmony to get onto Apple's popular little player, but Apple doesn't like it. Alas, I await the day that iTunes offers a choice of format to download, so the tracks can be played on any player I want. Bah, who am I kidding? Ever since I discovered sites like this, I haven't had a need for iTunes.

Wal-Mart Introduces Customized Music CDs
Posted by Oscar M. Cantu Categories: Internet, Music
The ability to pick and choose your music collection through an online music store is great. Shelling out $13 for a CD where only two or three songs are to your liking is not our kind of deal – hence the popularity of online music stores. However, what about the users without broadband or those people that still do not have a CD burner? That's where Wal-Mart wants to capitalize. Now you have the option to pick and choose what songs you want on a CD and have Wal-Mart burn the CD, pretty it up with nice graphics, and mail it out to you. All this for a price of $4.62 for three songs, and 88 cents for each additional song with shipping set at $1.97. This is a nice alternative for some - we will stick with Russia for our music.

Microsoft Ships Windows x64
Posted by Oscar M. Cantu Categories: Corporate News, Software
After a very long wait, software has finally caught up to hardware. Well at least when it comes to Microsoft. Windows XP Professional x64 Edition and Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition has been shipped on Monday. These operating systems are set to function on AMD's and Intel's 64-bit microprocessors and cost the same as the 32-bit versions of the OS. Finally we get a Windows tailored to the chips, but early adopters beware. Since this is basically a re-write of the OS, all the drivers need to be re-written as well. This means that even thought the OS comes with over 16,000 drivers there's a chance there will be at least one driver you need and cannot find. Check the OS out and tell us what you think.

Dashboard slowness and timeouts
On a single server, we have a number of single-site WordPress installations (which have been around for many years and have worked fine 'til now) and one newer multi-site installation that has been working fine for a few months. They are all connected to separate databases on a separate MySQL server in the same data center.
In the last week or so, the dashboards on ALL of these installations will intermittently load extremely slowly or timeout altogether (depending on the browser — Chrome seems to give up sooner than Firefox), to the point of being unusable. When one of the dashboards is showing the problem, all of the other dashboards on the same server do the same. When one is working, all are working. This will happen at any point during the login or dashboard-using process.
The actual reader-facing blog pages work fine at these times, and the other non-WordPress pages on the server all work fine. A WordPress installation on a separate server but connected to the same MySQL server also works fine during these times. It's only the dashboards on this one server.
I've tried disabling nearly all of our plugins (the ones not needed to keep the blogs minimally functional, like Akismet and Google Analyticator). I've tried upping the PHP memory limit. No luck with any of this. Our host has been trying to help me but is also at a loss.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

How To Get Longer Battery Life for your Android Mobile with SetCPU
- August 14th, 2010
- Posted in Android . Applications . Mobile . Technology
- By Jeremy Hindle
- Write comment
SetCPU allows for Android Mobile users who have rooted their phones to change the clock speed of their CPU (their processor) thanks to the fantastic Michael Huang. A lot of people who use gaming PC's will want to alter their processor speed to get increased performance without having to upgrade their hardware however you can also lower your processors clock speed to save power usage. Here is how you can use SetCPU to save your battery, by lowering your phone's maximum clock speed.
When you use your mobile the CPU usage goes up and down according to how much work the phone is doing. Most newer Android mobiles can run the operating system and perform normal functions well with much lower CPU usage than they often use. So basically SetCPU lowers the max CPU usage with very little slowdown, and saves a lot of power. Used in conjunction with other power saving techniques like turning off Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and lowering screen brightness it's not unreasonable to see a 25%-50% battery increase (in my experience). Something which can be extremely helpful when a lot of top end handsets will only last a single full day on a full charge. It's certainly nice to have an extra half a day when you are out in the early hours or you forget your charger on a weekend. So what is the app like?
SetCPU allows you to set profiles according to the current battery level of your phone. For example you can make it so when your battery level gets to 75% you can make it drop your clock speed down to say 533mHz from 993mHz. This clock speed decrease will cause some slowdown but in the vast majority of cases and for general usage it isn't noticeable. The change in clock speed can also be triggered by other factors such as temperature. There are also several other options which are better explained here. One of the most important ones which probably save the most battery with minimal effort is the "screen off" function. It's settings are shown with the others in this post.
So go ahead and get this. Without a doubt the best way to increase your device's battery life. My (recommended) settings are found in the images.
Comment if you have any trouble and I'll help you out.
Please note that in the picture all my "below battery" settings were set at priority 50. This is incorrect – you should set the highest battery line at the lowest priority. So >90% at priority 1, >80% priority 2 e.t.c. Also make sure the "screen off" profile is set to priority 100.

What age did you guys start your kids shooting, and how did you introduce them to the sport. My son is 7, soon to be 8 and I want to start hinm shooting this summer with an airsoft gun to teach him how to aim and handle a gun safely.
Sounds like a good deal to me. I say start them as soon as they show interest in it. We didn't have air soft in my day and I started on a .22short rifle. I have shot it ever since I can remember. The key word is teach. Good luck.:smt023
I had a BB gun at a very young age...start them as soon as they are responsible enough to learn.
I started with my daughter last year when she was six because she showed an interest. I have a pellet rifle with an adjustable stock that was great for teaching her. She did pretty good too and was putting holes in a milk jug full of water and got a kick out of watching it pee out.
I did the same thing with my first two who are adults now. The haven't continued in gun interest but I hope they have retaining the safety aspect of it.
Like everyone else said, as soon as they show an interest and you can find them something small enough to shoot. I'd start with a pellet rifle because of the better accuracy they afford.
I think I am going to get an airsoft or real pellet rifle with a scope. It will be easier to learn with a scope over iron sights. He can learn iron sights later. At least a scope will help him become better faster and hopfully keep his interrest in shooting sports.
On a side note I bought a Crossman Co2 pellet pistol a number of years ago and it's a kick in the pants to shoot. I figured out that if you shot down the pop top of a Coke can it would stand the can back up. That little pistol is suprisingly accurate.
I started shooting an airrifle when I was 14. I think airguns are great for teaching basic safety and marksmanship.
My boy is 9 and I got him a BB/Pellet rifle a couple years ago. This spring I have started teaching him to shoot a 22 pistol (Ruger MK III). I thought about getting one of those little Cricket 22 rifles but I just can't stand them..heh. He really has taken to pistol shooting and is becoming a pretty good shot. He has had groups as small as 3-4 inches at 25 yards.
I have a daughter that I did the same with but she is a teen ager now and don't like to shoot with Dad too much anymore. she's a dead on shot and knows how to take down and clean and lube many of my pistols and rifles. She still likes to tell stories of her shooting but don't do it near as much.
I always thought teaching them early is great to getting to see a gun as a tool that has to be respected to be used safe. And to understand the rights we have here to keep tools such as these in our home.
You have not seen entertainment untill you watch a 17 year old girl debate the Second Amendment with little "hippy" kids.:smt082
This is me in 1934 with the .22 single shot rifle I got for my 6th birthday in 1932 and my trophy rabbits I took with it.
Didn't get an air rile until later. However, we lived WAY out in the country and, times were different then. I had owned my own horse - retired mare from my Uncle Albert - since I had been four. Only problem was, my mother wouldn't let me use a saddle fearing my getting a foot stuck in a stirrup - bareback riding gives a lot of experience doing "safe" landings.
Times were really different.
I wasn't allowed a Gun untill I was 10....and that was a BB gun and I had to do alot of convincing to get it.
As far as my kids go...as soon as they show an interest,I'll start teaching.My 12 yr old has no real interest in guns right now...but did mention he would like to learn to shoot someday.My 6yr old has shown an interest for as long as he could talk....so he is a tad bit trickier to handle.Neither one is allowed to handle a real gun,but both have been taught propor handling and safety and do quite well with the airsoft guns I have.
When you get right down to it....It's more up to WHEN my wife and I both agree ,when would be the appropriate time....
