Lukas Podolski's superb volley against Montpellier has been voted as the November Goal of the Month by Arsenal supporters.
The German international played a pass to Olivier Giroud on the edge of the French club's area, before running on and crashing the return ball high into the roof of the net.
Podolski's strike collected an incredible 81 per cent of the vote, with Santi Cazorla's consolation effort against Manchester United finishing in second place with five per cent.
Per Mertesacker's header in the north London derby victory against Tottenham also got five per cent, but finished in third place due to getting fewer votes than Cazorla's strike.

The Bedfordshire Family History Society has produced CD's of the parish register transcripts and other records that they hold. The transcripts, I assume, are those made by F.G. Emmison who worked at the Bedfordshire Record office for some years. The Emmison transcripts have been available on fiche for a long time, but it is good news that they are now available on CD as the machines for reading the microfiche are becoming almost extinct.
The CD's are priced from £10 and one CD covers one parish. Each CD has a parish map showing where in Bedfordshire the parish lies, a 19th century description of the parish (possibly from Lewis Topographical?), photographs of the church & village, images of the printed transcripts from start of the parish registers to 1812, then searchable transcripts from 1812 to approximately 1851 for baptisms and burials and 1837 for marriages. Also included are images of the 1851 census index for the parish compiled by the Bedfordshire FHS.
If you are lucky you may also find loaded onto the CD Monumental Inscriptions for the churchyard and other graveyards within the parish, I also noted that some parishes have non-conformist register transcripts also included on the CD. As Bedfordshire was a hot bed for non-conformists this is a valuable addition to the CD.
I have ancestors in Eaton Socon and using that parish as an example I find that the £25 CD included
St Mary Baptisms 1566-1852
St Mary Marriages 1573-1837
St Mary Marriage Surname Index 1573-1837
St Mary Burials 1567-1851
Monumental Inscriptions – St Mary (compiled by Bedfordshire FHS)
Monumental Inscriptions – St Mary 1400-2009 (compiled by Eatons Community Association)
Non-Conformist Registers – Bedford Methodist Circuit Class Book 1781-1806
I am surprised that Ancestry or FindMyPast haven't obtained rights to publish these transcripts online, so buying the CD's is an economic way for researchers who live some distance from the Bedfordshire Archives to search the transcripts.

I carried a Glock 26 for 8 years until I got rid of it and got a compact Walther P99 last year - also hard chromed my slide.
It is a great gun. The trigger will smooth up a bit after 500 rounds or so.
I used a Bianchi 7L holster - a leather belt holster. I think w/ the exception of some of the tight kydex holsters, pretty much any holster made for the fullsize will work for the compact. My Bianchi is made for the fullsize. But, I actually like the little bit of extra leather on the holster. Many holsters do not protect the very end of the gun - the muzzle area. And, when I sit down on a wooden bench or something similiar, I hear the front of the gun loudly hit the surface.
I carried a Glock 26 for many years in a holster made for a Glock 19, so I knew it worked out well, and that is why I did the same for my Walther.
As for sights - I prefer stock sights. But yes, the SW99 sights should fit that gun too.

Joseph DeRisi is a Professor of Biochemistry and Biophysics at the University of California, San Francisco and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator.
His research focuses on two distinct areas: malaria and new viral pathogen discovery. Dr. DeRisi is this year's recipient of the Eli Lilly and Company Research Award, granted in recognition of fundamental research of unusual merit in microbiology or immunology by an individual on the threshold of his or her career.
Discovering new viral pathogens seems like exciting work, and DeRisi has lots of ideas for prospecting. In one recent success with their viral microarray, his group recently helped identify the virus responsible for a devastating disease among rare parrots and other birds: proventricular dilatation disease, or PDD, has been recognized for 30 years, but veterinarians didn't know the cause or how to control it. Now that DeRisi's group has pinpointed Avian Bornavirus as the culprit and sequenced its genome, therapies and control measures to help both captive birds and birds in the wild can't be far behind.
In this interview, I asked Dr. DeRisi whether he's interested in putting the microarray approach to virus discovery to work in uncovering the causes of some human illnesses, especially those diseases we suspect might be spread by viruses, but for which we've never found a virus responsible. He has some very interesting ideas for where to start. We also talked about his work on identifying the SARS virus, and a new approach in the ongoing fight against malaria.

Top 10 Snowboards 2006
Top 10 Snowboards 2006
From Brandon Arnold
This season's top snowboard picks offers a board for everyone. From backcountry kickers to wide open groomers and tight tree runs, there is a snowboard here that can handle it - and many of them can do it all. Don't forget to take into consideration the type of terrain you like to ride before buying a board. These boards range from just under $400 all the way up to $650. We have a seperate list of our favorite snowboards for under $350.
1) Burton UnInc Snowboard
Burton has let their freestyle masterminds come up with their own series of decks. Gigi Ruff has spec'd this 158cm twin-tip to perform on huge kickers, steep backcountry drops or random bonks. Burton's rad 2X stance technology gives the rider more usable options while using less inserts, this saves weight and gives the board its sweet natural flex. The high performance SuperFly II core is profiled with slightly less material between the bindings for on-command control and better butters.
2) Ride Business Snowboard
Ride is out to prove that you get what you pay for with their Business deck. This sick board doesn't hold back with an arsenal of technical components and refined performance. The super-fast Gallium infused base maintains speed for full throttle acceleration in all snow conditions and is nearly bullet proof for superior impact resistance. With the versatility of Capped tips and tails with sidewalls underfoot this Board means Business.
3) Rome Anthem Snowboard
All day, all night and all out is what the Anthem is all about. Built for the charging rider that eats, sleeps and lives snowboarding, the Anthem will have you singing its praises. This young company has been doing their homework on the hill; the result is a lightweight board with fast-riding sintered base and a wood core that is loaded with pop. The best thing about this deck is that you don't have to be a super pro to ride it you just have to love to ride.
4) Option Sansalone Snowboard
Great riders come up with boards that ride like racecars and let us push our limits. This year's Sansalone from Option is no exception with a power packed deck that lets the intermediate to advanced rider tear up steep slopes, deep powder and tight trees while providing a solid platform for landing big air. This all-mountain favorite comes in a bunch of lengths and widths to make sure that riders of many different sizes can let it rip on their favorite terrain.
5) Sapient Coulter Snowboard
This pro-model from Sapient combines their top of the line components and construction to make a solid stick for advanced to expert shredders. The ABS sidewalls smooth bumpy terrain and absorb impact from rails. Its dialed-in Transitional sidecut lets you rip powder at mach speed or control your flow through the park. Chris Coulter had one of his good friends supply the original artwork to make his signature deck as unique look as good as it rides.
6) Nitro SupraTeam LH Snowboard
Long-time Nitro pro Lucas Huffman is the "go to" guy when filmers and photographers need sick images to print. His signature Suprateam board plays the same role for riders that can bring it in the park or in the backcountry. A carbon and Dyneema reinforced wood core brings solid performance for eye-watering straight lines, mile-high ollies and on point control at any speed. Get this deck and you'll feel like you've joined Nitro's kick-butt team.
7) Forum Joni Malmi Snowboard
International superstar Joni Malmi was one of the original members of the Forum 8. His first pro model is well worth the wait. This deck is hungry for high speed pursuits over any terrain. Its transitional sidecut is predictable and handles well while riding switch or regular. The I-Lock system allows infinite stance options. A hard and fast Sintered 7500 base lets you put the pedal to the metal while devouring large jumps or wide-open powder fields - or large jumps in wide-open powder fields.
8) Venue Onyx Snowboard
From the makers of NorthWave boots and Drake bindings comes the hot new Venue Onyx. These guys have been producing sweet boots and bindings for long enough to learn everything they need to know about putting together high performance snowboards too. The Onyx busts out of the gates with a sintered base, carbon fiber-reinforced wood core and a do-everything directional shape. This is one deck that is made for the rider that goes off on any terrain.
Manufacturer's Site
9) Atomic Alibi Snowboard
The Atomic Alibi is made for park rats but is packed with performance features that lets you rip all over the mountain. Dialed-in construction including Inter-Carbon inlays, a CNC milled wood core and super-sick Twin Progressive sidecut that can ride better switch than most boards can ride regular. The Alibi's high tech is combined with a snappy flex that can win contests or let you beat your bros at a game of "SKATE", I mean "SHRED," at the local terrain park.
10) Endeavor Live Snowboard
Endeavor puts their high-class spin on this classic freestyle deck. Made with park riders in mind, the Live series come in short, wide models so you can duck your stance, sag you pants and get your jib on. It is also made in normal width for those that want a fun board but don't need the extra width. I have to admit the graphics on this board are unreal and are almost as technical as the riding you'll be able to do on this sick stick.

Woo-hoo, witchy woman, see how high she flies.
Woo-hoo, witchy woman, she got the moon in her eyes.
—The Eagles
So the big weekend is finally here. Are you ready to serve up a haunted house of party feasts? If you're just now thinking about Halloween plans, fear not: I've got a few down 'n devilish dip recipes to get witchy women and black magic men movin' and groovin'.
Don't stop the party on Halloween night, either. This week marks the festive Mexican Days of the Dead, on November 1 and 2. A happy celebration of death? You betcha! In this ritual observance, rooted in a bizarre blend of pre-Colombian and Roman Catholic practices, Mexican families make merry with the souls of their dearly departed. The living mingle with the dead at midnight picnics in cemeteries, they leave once-favorite foods as offerings at home-made altars, and welcome back the dead for a day on earth feasting on tamales, spicy moles, and the most special treat of the celebration, Pan de Muerto, or Bread of the Dead. The links below will take you to more about the Days of the Dead and a recipe for Pan de Muerto.

Discussion in 'November 2006' started by mercury, Nov 20, 2006.
NAT : LOC : FSN Detroit RADIO : 1130 WDFN
Pistons are playing their 4th game in 5 nights, but so are the Wizards. The Pistons are 3-0 this week, but the Wizards are 0-3, all on the road: they lost at Dallas, at Houston, and at Memphis. Last night at Memphis, Arenas had what must have been the worst game of his career: 1-12 from the floor, 1-5 from the line, only 3 points total for the entire game.
They are back home now. Wiz has been good at home for the past 2 seasons. Hopefully, Arenas would not have a breakout game after that horrific outing last nite. 6 wins in succession, baby??? GO TO WORK, PISTONS!!!
I remember Kamla saying something about Arena's stats being amazing the game after a bad one. Look out... Hopefully see some more Delfino tonight after his calling out during the week. Seems to be working.
I have a feeling we'll get ambushed in Wash. We travel and they land at home. Gilbert will be pissed.
Saturday Nov. 25 7:00 pm FSN Detroit (RSNE in Canada)
Chat is open.
Split screen... Notre Dame & USC
Pistons win 115-111, a slightly deceptive final score--Pistons had a commanding lead right near the end, but the Wizards went nuts and scored 11 pts in the last minute on a flurry of desperation threes. The first quarter had no defense from anyone, ending with a 35-34 Wizards lead. Pistons bench played great in the second quarter, and the dreadful Wiz bench had them down double digits, but their starters led a comeback in the last 2 minutes to make it close at the half. Then the Wizards fell apart for most of the second half, as the Pistons pulled away with better D and efficient offense. Pistons had a remarkable night from the FT and 3-pt lines: 11-24 on threes, and 36-40 on FTs! Half of that was Chauncey, 18-19 from the stripe. Tay had a good game, 21 pts on 8-14 from the floor. Rip had 18 on 8-16 from the floor--he missed a lot of Js, but he was great in transition, with at least half his buckets coming on the break. Sheed didn't have a very good game, but Dice was solid off the bench. Wizards had 17 turnovers, as opposed to only 9 for the Pistons. 6 game winning streak! And 4 victories in 5 nights. Not bad at all. Pistons get 4 nights off now, before heading to Miami next Thursday.
Pistons took the Wiz's best shot in the 1st quarter. Pistons were able to hang on and end the quarter with the lead and controlled it from there. Nice game to watch. Pistons always had an answer throughout the game. I like the 2 headed center deal with Mohammed/Davis. They compliment each other. Davis brings the enterior D and vereran savy. Any taser jokes?
I like what the box score has to say. Prince getting it done. Dyess, Murray and Delfino contributing. Billups sinking as many FT's as the entire Washington team. Rip his usual self.
webz is that a re-enactment of the Dale Davis incident?
Where did they get the energy to hang with the Wiz and score 115?
As is customary for them, the Wizards played no defense whatsoever. The Pistons were mostly getting whatever they wanted on offense.
The bench. Every bench player that played was effective. They played so well that no starter had to play more than 14 minutes in the first half. Come 4th quarter the starters were ready to finish the game.
Good job!!!
Yeah it is a good job. This year's wins are actually wins unlike last year. This year everyone is doing a good job, and the players are working hard. Last year the wins piled up on the scoreboard but it didn't help the team truly win. This year the wins are actually wins.
It is really good to see the difference in Sheed between this year and last. He seems very "into" it this year. And with Rip playing even better, I love watching them. I must say that I am getting tired of Dyce's sick grin when he screws up, though. It is getting very old. I believe the bench will be better prepared this year; Delfino has put in some good minutes lately. CB just seems like CB in that he controls things well. I will never tire of watching Rip.
i was surprised how much energy we had. you knew that there wasn't going to be any defense played with both teams playing their 4th in 5 nights, but how well the teams show was surprising. the bench played phenomenal in the 2nd quarter and 5 guys got more than 10 minutes each. this was a quality, quality win.

This seems more expensive and complex than it will actually be, but it plays to the strengths of each battery type and its designated role on my boat, and it gets the batteries away from the engine and its heat.
Anyone looking for batteries in the se usa check out dcbattery.com in Miami. It's been years since I bought from them, but the price for Lifeline 8D AGMs was exactly half of West Marine Lifelines in Lauderdale at the time.

Preferably change them all, since mixing old and new batteries tends to be a bad idea regardless of chemistry when they are on the same charging source.
But some AGM batteries may have charging parameters that are so close to your wet lead, that it pays to check the specs. You may be able to use them together, especially if a "dumb" alternator is going to be the only charging device. Alternators with integral regulators actually aren't designed to do a good job at charging, they are designed to do a mediocre job which won't overcharge if you are running the engine all day.

I was using his numbers from his chart, since you get very different numbers today perhaps that only tells us the real costs are subject to great changes. He's showing the Lifelines at 774 and the Surrettes at 493 if I read it correctly, 8D for each. Of course I think we all know battery prices can vary widely, depending on the shipping costs of lead and how close you can get up the distribution chain.
Lotta numbers in that model index, I'll try to look them over tomorrow.
HS...there is more to it than that...the calculation is NOT simply cost per amp hour over the life cycle based on purchase cost...it also figures in engine run time to charge etc. which is why the spreadsheet may turn out entirely differently for your boat and you can see all the inputs on the last sheet of his site here:
Example...his fuel cost for diesel is $1.50/gal. ...closer to 3 bucks now and if you have a big engine to run it uses more fuel per charging hour. If you charge on solar/wind...it turns out differently.
It is clear to me that FLOODED are cheaper in many or most circumstances but the typical long term cruiser may get both the benefits of AGM AND cost efficiency long term vs. flooded. Ya gotta enter the data for your own boat and battery choices to see if it works for you.
EDIT...HS...did a little research on the current Rolls/Surette marine batts and an 8d is $1600 bucks each and the model calls for two and is rated for 1500 cycles...even on your math basis that is $3200...1500 cycles and 650 amp hours.
Lifeline AGM...about $950 for 2x8d's and 1000 cycles and 510 amp hours.
That is a cost per lifetime amp hour of .00328 on the surette/rolls and .0018 cents for the Lifelines so YOUR lifecycle cost numbers with todays products from both companies favor the AGM's.
I would note that the current rolls/surette marine 8d's feature their unique 6 cell bolt together approach which is costlier to produce and has the advantage of being lighter to deal with and individually replaceable in the event of a bad cell. The warranty is also 7 years so all that is worth something as well...but on a pure "how much does it cost per amp hour over the life of the battery?" basis...the Lifelines win.
Cam, I'm afraid I don't agree with Vonwentzel's own charts, based on his own data. In the web page http://www.vonwentzel.net/Battery/01.Type/index.html
he shows Lifeline 8D AGM batteries rated for 1000 charge cycles, at an initial puchase cost of $1.57 per AH.
And he shows Premium Surrette at 3200 charge cycles, with an initial purchase cost of $2.00/AH.
Now, according to my math? If we further divide purchase cost (per AH) by the numer of cycles it can be used for, that's a total purchase cost of $0.00157 per AH for the Lifeline AGM, versus $0.000625 for the Surrette. (Note the extra decimal zero.)
The Surrette are then about 1/3 the price of the Lifeline AGM's, once the purchase price AND the number of discharge cycles are taken into consideration.
That doesn't mean AGM isn't the way to go--but it does mean he's left a very important multiplier out of his figures. (No doubt we're either related or missed the same year of math class.< G >)
|Yep CD...West is EastPenn/Deka right now. As usual...you can get the real thing cheaper elsewhere.
I have gone thru several sets of batts over 20 years and have used all types, flooded, gel and AGM. I will not use flooded again although my last previous set I did give them a try again.
Can't stand the acid and the filling up with water and checking with a hydrometer. Too many ruin clothes!
The Prevailers were fine and now I am on to AGMs which are going strong after 3 yrs, but that is for weekend in season use only. The Gels worked for 3 years as a liveaboard.
I have moved up to 2-8Ds because I don't like to limit electric usage and have had solar cells to keep them topped off. I also use a separate Optima start bank.
I'm sticking with AGMs for now.
sv shiva
Thanks for bat info and links
The next step for me is to disect the wiring system. Great info thanks to all for your opinions and data. Now to counting coins.

Not being funny guys, but as a printer and direct importer of canvas and frames - this is not possible.
Sorry, i will rephrase that. That is possible but not great!
That would be the naff polyester canvas and thin fir frames i take it then?
You can actually get them printed for £5 if you order 5000 from china. Blimey what has happened to our printing game. Ebayers, that is what.
The one for £85 sounds about right to me.

I realize I'm a bit late to the party here, but better late than never!
I've found a decent offer here, albeit the canvas size is 30"x25" on this one (surely a little extra canvas is no harm?!
They specialize in personalized, high-quality canvas prints.
The price has been reduced to £51.99 for the 30"x25" I mentioned, but they seem to have a bunch of discounts across their entire range. Now I think about it, I'm sure I noticed a price guarantee on their site, so you might want to try them if the prices you're getting elsewhere aren't what you hoped for.
Happy canvas hunting!

I agree with Max - beware of some cheaper prices being offered online for stretched canvases, you will most likely find that the canvas does not come stretched or that the materials being used are of poor quality.
I do run a canvas printing company and this post is not to advertise this - there are bargains to be had but just a note of caution as we have had lots of clients come to us because they have been unhappy with canvases printed elsewhere.

Mauel Leads Green Bay to Success at DuPage Invitational
By Justin Grones (@GronesGB)
WHEATON, Ill. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay men's and women's cross country teams kicked off the weekend on a high note, each recording top-five finishes at the College of DuPage Invitational on Friday. With the women's team earning a third-place finish and the men's team holding down the fifth-place spot, each team has finished in the top-five in back-to-back races. Once again sophomore Sarah Mauel (Green Bay, Wis.) led the way with an impressive fifth-place finish in the women's race with a time of 19:07.
Just a week after finishing second at the Falcon Invite, Mauel again led the way on a women's team that's finding its stride midway through the season. For the second straight race, freshman Breanna Suess (Luxemburg, Wis.) wasn't far behind Mauel, finishing in 20th place with a time of 20:12. Junior Sarah Frelich (Denmark, Wis.) crossed the finished line just a minute later in 21:12 to finish in 40th place.
Sophomore Dalton Woodworth (Sparta, Wis.) continued to pace the men's side, leading a group of four Phoenix runners who crossed the finish line within 30 seconds of one other. Woodworth crossed the finish line first for the Phoenix in a time of 26:36 to finish 19th, followed closely by senior Alexander Kimble (Green Bay, Wis.), who was just seconds behind with a time of 26:41 for a 24th-place finish. Freshman Austin Gokey (De Pere, Wis.) and junior Andrew Sorenson (Onalaska, Wis.), rounded out Green Bay's top four finishers with times of 26:58 and 27:05 to finish in 32nd and 36th place, respectively.
For full results of the race, please click here. Both teams will head to South Bend next weekend to compete in the Notre Dame Invitational on Friday at 2 p.m.

Alright guys, its about time I get around to posting this. I would like to able to offer one of the most accurate ESB capes currently available to my brothers and sisters here on TDH. That explains my thread earlier last week about the seam/thread run/fold line. I've been doing research on the colors of the cape, and have come to think that instead of tan, which is what a lot of replica capes are colored, that the main sections are more of a slightly greenish, khaki color.
Here are some shots that I had taken by a friend to show off the cape in detail:
Take notice in this picture that it was before I hemmed the bottom of the cape, so its much longer than it should be. I stand at 5' 11" and the bottom of the cape now rests directly on the knuckles of my left hand.
However, due to the fact that Wal-Mart has stopped carrying fabrics in most places, I really don't have a projected number for the project. :facepalm I have enough fabric stored up to make at least five capes for sure, beyond that is really a shot in the dark. Because of this, the interest will be limited to ten spots for the time being, and payment will only be accepted when the cape is done and ready to be shipped to its new owner.
Price will be $40 shipped, but I'm open to any trades and offers, because I know what its like to be budgeted. :cheers
1. 99CentTaco (Trade for ESB ammo belt) - Shipped - Received
2. CombatBaby - Shipped - Recieved
3. SlabFett - Shipped
4. Studio Fett - In Progress
5. fettpride - Seamed version - In Progress
-OVERDRAFT (To be made when I have enough fabric to finish :thumbsup):
6. DisposablHero
7. Christian
8. WetOkole
9. soopertrooper
10. Galactic Bounty Hunter - Seamed version
11. Tk5019
Due to the process of creating the orange stripe, which involves the once readily available brown canvas and bleach, the darkness of the orange MAY slightly vary from cape to cape, but I can promise that any that look too dark will be fixed, and any that look too light will be trashed.
Also, thought that I would mention that I'll be happy to add the seam, fold line, or thread run (actually still have to test this one) for anyone who wishes for no extra cost, and that the capes will come weathered unless otherwise requested by anyone who wishes to do the dirtying themselves.:thumbsup
PM me for details or questions! :D

i'm with indy. no reason to save money in the traditional way.
i haven't bother to look either.
Mitt deserves to lose Michigan for throwing the Auto industry under the buss. Neither of these guys stand a chance against Obama. Todays highlight: GM posts its highest profit ever: $7.6 billion. GM and 1.5 million good paying jobs wouldn't exist without Obama and Dubya.
Neither one, I'll stick with Obama.
Its not hard to imagine what would've occurred under McCain & Co. Pretty much the same I suspect. The rules were laid down long before Obama got the job, hence all the bending over he's done to the dismay of his supporters. Sadly, the presidency means little these days, other than serving as what, an 18 month long distraction? Doesn't anyone wonder what's 'really' going on? There's lot's that's for sure. We are a very busy species.It should be understood by everyone; Maintaining the current way of life for those at the top is the only goal regardless of who sits in the Oval Office. It really should be obvious to anyone watching. You all do know, we've begun locking people up just for speaking in an 'assumed' threatening manner. That could even mean people on this very forum (self included :shock:), some of you might be surprised by the things our Government monitors these days. Seems we've let them forget that in the Constitution, "security" means protection 'from' law enforcers, not by them.Bam, bam, bam, another one bites the dust.t
Quotei'm with indy. no reason to save money in the traditional way.Hello…..NASDAQ is at a decade high and the Dow is pushing toward a record. The stock market has BOOMED since Obama took office. Look at the charts. Many stocks like Bank of America have gone up over 50% in just the last 2 months. Even treasuries have BOOMED with Obama in office. The yields are low if you're buying them for interest, but if you're buying/selling on bond prices, they have boomed. (In fact the Fed/Politicians have created a HUGE bond bubble the likes of which has never been seen before. Almost making the housing bubble look benign).Virtually everything but bank saving rates, auto stocks, and natural gas has gone way up in value. Romney seems to know how the economy functions and made some $20M last year mostly on investments. Contrast that the Santorum who said he had no capital gains. Who do YOU want spending and investing YOUR tax dollars! $20M Romney or $0 Santorum? Quotei haven't bother to look either.Sounds like some voter homework is in order.
i'm with indy. no reason to save money in the traditional way.
and GM could have had that same result by going through the normal bankruptcy process and coming out with a clean start..... the bailout of GM was a bailout of unions. nothing more or less. i don't care who did it. it was wrong.
"I'd do it again," Bush told thousands of the nation's auto dealers, explaining approving a $700 billion bailout fund used to rescue banks, insurers and automakers. "I didn't want there to be 21 percent unemployment."
"If you make a bad decision, you ought to pay," Bush said. "Sometimes, circumstances get in the way of philosophy."
Bush got a standing ovation

Do your future plans include long ocean voyages with a shorthanded crew? Would you like to make these passages in a fast, elegant, comfortable, safe, easy to handle, and easy to maintain vessel? If so, please read on.
Carisa is a very specific yacht for a very specific type of sailor. She does not have a salon the size of a gymnasium, plush hull liners, generators, or air conditioning. She does have a very comfortable and seamanlike interior with attractive natural timber finishes, lots of solar panels for electrical self-sufficiency and good ventilation. In the designers words, she is long in order to provide comfort sailing in the ocean, wide for stability in extreme conditions, but simple in construction, accommodation and systems in order to keep the cost under control. She's an excellent performer, and has a very comfortable motion in waves.
The concept of the Juniper 2 is the same as the original Juniper but the new design incorporates several refinements and improvements. She is a little wider overall, has a longer and finer bow, and uses a balanced spade rudder instead of Junipers outboard hung rudder. Aesthetic details such as the crossbeams and their fairings and the sheer line were refined. The hull underwater shape has less wetted surface than the original and the fin and rudder sections were refined for less drag. The interior layout was refined to increase elbow room and now incorporates a dedicated shower stall.
Carisa has an unstayed cat-ketch rig that is an absolute joy to handle. Tacking is simply a matter of turning the wheel. The crossbeams are very high above the water and there are no cabin projections beyond the hull sides. These features eliminate pounding in rough seas and contribute to comfort underway.
Carisa was designed and built for safety offshore. Her structure is very strong and her construction materials make her unsinkable. If the worst were to happen and she was capsized (very unlikely), Carisa would float high on the closed buoyancy chambers built into the crossbeams. Her cabin would not be flooded beyond knee level, which would provide excellent survival prospects for the crew. This type of designed-in survivability is much preferable to a life raft.
Carisa was expertly built by Don and Tamar Clark. Her interior and exterior finish is excellent. All systems and equipment were installed with an eye for simplicity, reliability and serviceability.
Carisa is reluctantly for sale by her second owner because he doesnt have the time to use her to her full potential. She is a proven, safe, and fast ocean cruising trimaran that deserves your consideration.

4. Buttermilk, Colorado
Sour cream? Half and half? Naw, Buttermilk-it's the home of the X Games and the place to head to for the best buttery-smooth pipe in the country. U-tube jumpa Antti Autti attests to this by pouring out a delicious spin down the walls. PHOTO: Chris Wellhausen
There's a reason Buttermilk is hosting the Winter X Games through 2010. The standard-setting competition halfpipe and pro-level Snow Park Technologies terrain park are among the world's best. Factor in the nightlife and amenities of the Aspen locale and it's easy to see why people just love to ride this little nugget of a resort.
5. Bear Mountain, California
Maybe like Gabi Viteri here, your idea of an awesome overall resort is on that's stacked with park features, sunny, and filled with all your friends. If so, Bear Mountain is the right call. PHOTO: Christy Chaloux/ See What I See
Where else can you step out of your flip-flops and into your snowboard boots in the parking lot in January? Nowhere. But there's more to Bear than consistent sun and soft, slushy landings. Fact is, the entire mountain is a terrain park. With upgraded snowmaking, constant park maintenance, and continual enhancement of rails and features, Bear is forever fresh.
6. Snowmass, Colorado
As the largest of the four mountains that comprise the Aspen resort complex, Snowmass has the most to offer the hyperactive shred set. The upper mountain offers endless options, while world-class shred-specific terrain is spread all over the lower mountain. The addition of the new Sheer Bliss lift opens up 700 more acres of pure fun in this legendary destination.
7. Breckenridge, Colorado
Breckenridge is home to some badass snow sculpting-the smooth trannies of its legendary Superpipe loft you up there where you need a nice lien method to pull you back down to earth. Our boy Keir Dillon shows you how it's done. PHOTO: Frode SandbechYou've gotta go to Breck; the historic town captures the Old West and the mellow Rocky Mountain ski-town vibe pervades the whole area. Up on the hill, 30 lifts deliver you to dry, high-elevation snow on nearly 2,500 acres of wide-open bowls, well-kept parks, and a whopping 155 trails.
8. Park City, Utah
This pic is proof that there's nothing shitty about Park City, or Peetu Piiroinen for that matter. Their crispy U-jump has what it takes to host Olympic-quality events and holds up nice with that bubbly Utah fluff. Photo: Justin L'Heureux
Close proximity to Salt Lake City (32 miles) makes Park City one of the most easily accessible big-mountain resorts in the nation. The East Side zone offers aggro Wasatch vertical while total terrain variability from peak to parking lot makes for dynamic days on the hill. Five terrain parks, a Superpipe, and the convenience of every imaginable amenity at the base just adds to the goodness.
9. Keystone, Colorado
Keystone Colorado's Area 51 park rocketed into fourth place, Nick Dirk know only one way to celebrate-hip methods! PHOTO: Robbie Sell/These Days
You need at least a couple days to cover all the terrain at Keystone. Three broad peaks, vast bowls, and the Area 51 park zone offer an overdose of rippable terrain. Add in some night riding and a few après sodas at The Goat and the action is pretty much nonstop at this Summit County hot spot.
10. Vail, Colorado
A Western classic, Vail is a perennial feature on every "top ten best" list. When the Colorado storm cycles start to roll through, Vail gets hammered with the light and fluffy. Topping out at a peak elevation of over eleven-thousand feet, those back bowls fill in for some of the best inbounds pow roosting in the Lower 48.

Microsoft Selling Bonds, Could See Lowest-Ever 5-Year Yield
Techies may be lining up to buy the new iPad Mini from rival Apple (AAPL), but bond investors are more interested in today's newest offering from Microsoft (MSFT), which is selling bonds and could achieve the lowest interest rate for any five-year corporate bond on record.
Microsoft, one of the last remaining U.S. companies with triple-A credit ratings (hey, that's better than the U.S. government's rating from S&P), appears on track to establish the lowest-ever yield for a five-year corporate bond deal, according to Standard & Poor's Leveraged Commentary & Data, amid pervasively low interest rates on corporate bonds of all stripes. The bonds are part of a larger overall offering, said to be $2.25 billion in size, that also includes 10-year and 30-year bonds. The longer-dated bonds might have to settle for yields that are only among the five or ten lowest yields ever recorded for those maturities.
Pre-sale guidance suggests yields in the area of 30 basis points over comparable Treasury yields for the five-year notes, compared to 50 bps for the 10-year notes and 70 over for the 30-year bonds. That could translate to an all-in yield of 1.03% for the five year notes (to go with 2.23% and 3.62% for the 10-years and 30-years), per S&P LCD, which would challenge the 1.06% yield on a Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY) five-year bond sale on July 30.
It's the software giant's first bond offering since February 2011. Proceeds will go toward general corporate purposes.

However, I dig this shirt. Clever use of the theme. It's also a rare pop culture reference that it is well integrated with the theme, as opposed to being awkwardly shoehorned in while paying lip service to the theme.
My one worry is how small it looks on the Woot example. Prints often end up being larger than their Woot decals, however.
This is exactly my thought process with this one. I even think that in some ways the idea is overdone (or at least, it was so obvious) but the Scarecrow is so sufficiently creepy that I couldn't not like it. Even bought one.
Looks like Patrick has been playing Call of Duty Need more history channel. Zombies!!!
Now that the floating arms have been pointed out I can't stop noticing them, but I don't think it really matters. The point is still made with the shirt, and the arms still add something to it.
If they find only one brain I guess they could draw straws to see who gets it.
Perfect timing! I'm going to see "Evil Dead, the Musical" next weekend, and needed a proper shirt! (First shirt I ever ordered with rush shipping.)
Is that a disembodied arm in the upper left corner?

I would buy it myself, but I feel like the picture of the brain takes away a little of the subtlety. I feel like most people would get it regardless, it just kind of cheapens the wit.
Condition: MC 900 Ft Jesus
Thanks for the late-night entertainment! If I had a brain, I'd be in bed asleep instead of watching videos on YouTube at 2 AM

lol yeah, what's with that arm?
I use to like that movie....but this just add's to nightmare's i get from kid's movie's list. Thanks Woot. Thanks.
On an off topic note that may be worthwhile of noting:
What is going on? Why am I only finding out today that Elizabeth Sladen passed away a couple of days ago.
Next to Leela, she pretty much was the definitive Doctor Who companion in my mind.
how does this happen a shirt in the same color with zombies that look the same. with the same thought bubble. this one is wayyy funnier.....ughh idk what to do

At first, the Wizard said the virus could be contained. When munchkin land fell to the zombie plague though, all of Oz knew that the end was only a matter of time before the end came.
She cursed the lion for his cowardice, he fled the for the hills at the first sign of trouble.
The tinman was more noble about the whole thing and went down swinging his axe while trying to protect her. She used the bits that the zombies didn't take and melted it down for extra material for the nails.
And Scarecrow. Scarecrow that scumbag. He was the source of the plauge.
She should have seen it coming.
I was going to buy this shirt, but after reading this I'm too afraid! -_-
I would imagine the people of Emerald City being minty too.
Some people say Patrickspens is the Michael Jordan of Woot derbies.
But actually, Michael Jordan is the Patrickspens of basketball.
Alternate title for this shirt: "Fools Rush In".
LOL this is the first Woot shirt to give me a good laugh in a long time. Bravo, patrickspens.
So wait, if the scarecrow wants to eat my brains, and the tinman wants to eat my heart, what does the lion want?
They're coming to get you, Dorothy!
They're coming for you and your little dog too!
Look, there comes one of them now!
This was a worthy winner for the derby. Imaginative and on theme. Nice job!
In the write-up there was not mention of eating Munchkins.
Did he eat the lollipop guild? Was he disappointed that they didn't taste like lollipops?
Toto, was he/she the Kansas veal?
Oh the questions I have.
I'm buying this shirt, and I don't even LIKE zombies!
...well, I guess no one really likes zombies. But still!
I like the shirt but why state the obvious? I think the balloon w/ brain image could have been left off the shirt. Make people think about it. Just my 2 cents.
qwasdfz wrote:So wait, if the scarecrow wants to eat my brains, and the tinman wants to eat my heart, what does the lion want?
Well, remember, people asking if you are brave enough to do something generaly ask it in one of two ways. "Have you got the..." followed by either Guts or Balls (often this is a generational difference, but mean much the same). Now neither of these are things I'd want a Lion devouring, but from a biological standpoint, both are the easy soft tissues that one would go for first. Odd how that works out.
Best everything ever from the shirt right down to L. Frank Brown. This makes me happy.
I woke up today and had a feeling that spens was gonna win one. Much deserved after getting robbed on the science - fiction.
Grabbed this one as soon as I saw it won
Of all the Woot! shirts in my closet, Patrick has his own section.
And now, a brief interlude.
I could while away an hour
With people to devour
Their screams so full of pain.
And their heads I'd be bashin'
While my teeth were busy gnashin'
If I only had some braaaaains!
I'd be eatin' ev'ry victim
Right after I had picked 'em
You know I can't refrain.
When their bones start a-crunchin'
That's when I will soon be munchin'
If I only had some braaaaains!
Oh, how
I love to chow
Just eat both night and day.
Wonder why my hunger never seems at bay.
The living dead
Won't go away!
You might think that I am foolish
I'm just blood-thirsty ghoulish
As zombies go, I'm plain.
So if I see you scramblin'
That's when I will start a-shamblin'
If I only had some braaaaains!
This was the first woot shirt that actually made my fiance laugh. Most of the time she just rolls her eyes.
Laugh = win = purchased.
or awesome

Pay the extra couple of bucks and sit in the front. Make sure you bring an extra shirt!
Anybody else notice that patrickspens is great at drawing zombie and zombie-related shirts?
And now I'll be whistling that lovely tune for the rest of the day...
Another GREAT design, patrickspens.
I didn't vote in this derby and knew this was patrickspens at first glance... due to its greatness.
I knows what I likes when I sees it.
Take away the talk bubble and this shirt is perfect. I'm definitely in for one. Good job, woot voters!
And well done, patrickspens, yet again! "Another triumph!" -Jon Lovitz, from 'The Simpsons' (look it up, people, it was a funny bit from one of the earlier seasons)
(...the one where Marge goes back to painting again? Remember her instructor?)
Can we please have a one-year moratorium on zombie shirts?
Ha-ha, gotta love the "L. Frank Brown." Personally I don't dig brown but it's the only color that works with the floor and planks... Next time, no zombies! Since penguins and squirrels and polar bears seem out too, we might want to move on to sugar gliders next?

Hi there! While watching videos in YouTube, I encountered Water Birth and I would like to know something more about it. I would like to know what are the pros and cons of this as well as the cost. Thank you so much!
Dear duly3nn3,
We have lots of information on Waterbirth in the main part of the Pregnancy, Birth and Beyond site here.
In terms of the cost, it can be just part of a hospital birth or birth centre that has a birthing pool or if you are considering a homebirth then you could borrow a birthing pool or hire one.
Warm water acts as a natural pain-reliever so this can help you to deal with the contractions as they become more intense. This also means that a woman is less likely to ask for stronger pain relief (such as an epidural) so this reduces the risks associated with this. Women who have a waterbirth or less likely to need medical interventions which is better for mum and baby. Labour is likely to be quicker and easier because a woman is more relaxed. It is safe to birth in water. Your baby can still be monitored using a handheld device.
In terms of the disadvantages, if you wanted to use a tens machine then you can't do this with water. You also should try not to get in the water until you are in active labour as it can slow/ stop early labour.
With warm wishes,
Thanks! Let me go ahead and find that information that you were talking about in the main page. :D
I've had 2 water births, feel free to ask any specific questions that you may have.
I found that chatting with other mums who have similar experiences helped empower me more in my choices to birth in the water.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks sunnymumof5 - there's nothing like the woman-to-woman sharing of positive birth experiences to enable a first time mum to know she can birth her baby how she wants.
I am a midwife and researcher who is completely focused on water immersion. I would be happy to answer and questions. Three of my five kids have also been water babies

Long story, Short story....
I have long defended Century FN-FAL and L1A1 rifles. I personally have had good luck with them, and have found them to be a very acceptably accurate and reliable rifle...
However; I had fit both of mine (an L1A1 and an SA FAL) with optics and NEVER used the iron sights at all. OOPS!
My partner, JRS on this forum, and I took our FAL's out without optics for the first time two weeks ago. Lo and Behold! They shoot extremely to the left. Even after cranking the sights all the way over to compensate, they are still shooting left....Some quick reading and research indicated that the barrels may not have been timed correctly....Removed handguards...and even with "issue eyeballs" it is obvious that they are 2-4 degrees off....So, Humble Pie sucks. Century is populated by damned hairy apes with wrenches.
Here is what I need to find:

text: thoroughly enjoyed watching the game tonight. It was refreshing to see a group play with energy and a will to win. I am tired of watching Tay saunter around just half arse it and slowwwwww backdown 1on1 plays that wind up in missed shots. Monroe proved again hes gonna be a real star, he continues tp progress game after game, I was real happy to see the offense run through him in the first half for about 3-4 straight posessions. He was passing like we all know he can and he is showing that little hook shot and his hakeem the dream spin move to the hoop. Dayes defense in the first half was beyond horrible, he couldnt keep his man within 5 feet of him, but with a short bench he was allowed to work through it and proved a pivotal piece in the victory with some clutch shooting.

Police Release Forensic Sketches of Mystery Woman
In January, the skeletal remains of a young woman killed in a horrific crash on I-5 in 1991, were exhumed from Longview Memorial Gardens in Longview, Washington, in hopes of identifying her.
The remains were sent to Seattle, where a forensic artist reconstructed her face on paper. The sketches are based on the features of her skull and the physical descriptions of witnesses who last saw the woman before the fiery collision that claimed her life on Southbound I-5 near Kalama, Washington in May of 1991.
Police sketches are routinely used in criminal cases, but rarely used to identify a person killed in an accident. Investigators hope someone may recognize these sketches and come up with a name, so they can return the woman's body to her family.

G-Star Raw HQ
Amsterdam, The Netherlands
In 1989, a small designer clothing company was founded in Amsterdam, which soon went on to become Europe's most iconic raw denim company. Originally named Gap Star, the firm is now known as G-Star Raw. Just like the denim that made the company famous, the notion of raw surfaces is also at the core of their new headquarters, designed by Rem Koolhaas and his Rotterdam-based Office for Metropolitan Architecture.

Re: New WA state insurance law??
Does sound like they wrote the wording incorrectly for the issue at hand. What in reality WAS, a simple requirement, that ALL of us with permanent moorage need. I've needed all the above since buying my boat 8 yrs ago.....so it is a much older rule than they imply.
Re: New WA state insurance law??
To wrap this up.. I did manage to get in contact with the authors of the article.
Many of you were right, they were looking for seasonal/winter moorage. They have an oldish steel boat, apparently no insurance and no resources for the required survey in order to get that insurance. So despite the comments they made, this would be nothing out of the ordinary, and likely nothing 'new'. Certainly our marinas here require proof of at least liability insurance.
The article was posted last February and may well have been written many months prior to that, so the 'new' element was overstated or perhaps misunderstood by some of us.
It would also appear that the liability coverage is not a requirement for transient overnight moorage, so the concerns that came up here among some cruisers who frequent US waters is unfounded.. (though anyone up here with permanent moorage would be well covered in any case)
I think the 'hot button' was the reference to 'an enormous amount' of coverage without stating just what that meant..
Thanks to all who contributed here, Case closed, I suppose...
Re: New WA state insurance law??
Checked with my marina (port of bremerton) and they haven't heard about any new insurance law a side note the Patrick Henry is a steel hulled vessel (wonder if Halifax is still with them)
Re: New WA state insurance law??
Not sure if you can get an insurance card/cert per say up that way. I have to carry a card for the vehicles, and take a copy of the cert paperwork I have to have for my marina with me in the boat. That has basic liability numbers, acct #, agent, company etc. I keep that with my boat registration etc. So If I am pulled over, get in an accident etc, I have the info handy. Or for that matter, if asked at a marina before being able to spend the night, I have the "proof of insurance" form I usually need.
Re: New WA state insurance law??
aev.. I think you're right.. this was more than a transient moorage scenario, they seemed to be relocating to the area and, as offshore cruisers likely didn't carry much if any insurance.
I think this is, in fact, a non issue for boaters visiting WA state, esp as almost every coastal cruiser is likely to have decent liability coverage. (Though how many of us carry that proof on board at all times???? note to self......)
Re: New WA state insurance law??
Alvah & Diane did a big cruise from New Zealand to the PNW via Japan, the Aleutians and Alaska a few years back and wrote about it for Cruising World. Wondering if this data is a bit old? Also as cruisers they probably did not have any insurance....I believe Roger Henry was a steel boat as well.
If you would like to read more about Alva Simon, check out his book "North to the Night" A Spiritual Odyssey in the Arctic. ISBN 7679-0446-x.

Totally get the idea that any marina would ask that a customer have coverage, and quite surprised that we don't get asked routinely (except by our home marina) to prove it - we've never, to my recollection, been asked for overnight transient spots.

Re: New WA state insurance law??
It seems to me that it would certainly makes sense that if someone is going to to tie up for more than dinner that the marina would want to make sure that the boat had coverage. Could this be that the marina was just using it as an excuse to ask them to leave for some other reason? I don't know much about the situation, but here on the east coast you at least need to sign a form and in the form it asks if you have liability coverage. If you are staying long enough to say plug into shore power I don't think it is egregious to ask to see proof especially for a boat from out of the area. I could see it being a bit up to the harbor master to decide if they want to trust you based on your signature, but if I owned the marina I would want to at least see the policy and write down the company and policy number in case there was an issue.
Perhaps things are just a bit more laid back on the North West coast. But if I had a boat in a marina and a paying visitor (therefore the marina's customer) took out my stern rail and they did not have insurance info for him, I would be expecting the marina to paying for the damages, not to mention a propane explosion or fire.
I can't imagine this is due to a "new" law likely one that has just not been enforced in the past by more than a signature or they are using it because they just did not want to rent to them. Also the "visitor for more than 3 days" is a bit of a stretch as they were getting new drivers licenses, so they were establishing permanent residency. It likely has more to do with that than anything. Perhaps they just did not want or were not allowed more liveaboards.
Re: New WA state insurance law??
Very likely the case, Marty... will do.

The eagle eyes at the Australian Motorcycle News bring us our first look at the 2015 Yamaha YZF-R1, as Iwata's superbike was caught testing at the Eastern Creek International Speedway.
With the picture, comes the first rumored details of the new R1, with the biggest news being that Yamaha will bring two versions of the machine to market: one street version, and one for race homologation.
From the photo above, both models will heavily take their styling cues from the current YZF-R6, and will also continue to use a four-cylinder crossplane engine configuration — this revelation squashes any notion of a three-cylinder superbike from Iwata.

Spotify is pretty great. Whether you're paying a subscription or happy to put up with a few ads every now and then for free music, most people who use the service are content. News today however that Spotify plans on halving the amount of free music you can listen to every month will certainly upset a lot of the non-paying members.
The announcement came today on Spotify's blog which detailed how things are going to change. For users who signed up before 1 November last year (six months ago), from 1 May they will be limited to listening to 10 hours of music a month (half the previous 20 hours) and only be able to listen to one track, five times. For new users this limited usage will only kick in after six months. The changes will obviously anger a lot of users and already on the comment section of its blog, users are venting ire with geekermo saying: "Bye bye Spotify" and vanderdecken adding: "Ah well, it was nice while it lasted. That's me over to Grooveshark/YouTube/piracy. Which is a shame, because Spotify had by far the best features and interface."
While non-paying users will obviously see this as a move towards getting everyone to pay for the service, Spotify has denied this. Ken Parks, Spotify's chief content officer, told the BBC: "Our chief priority is to keep the free service, which is what has made Spotify so popular. We're a company whose ambition is to offer all the world's music to everyone which means growing the business and our user base to many times its current size. Everything we do is designed to ensure our users continue to have access to an amazing free experience."
Last month Spotify passed the one million paying subscribers mark but that still leaves over 5.5 million non-paying subscribers, most of whom Spotify say use the service to "discover music - on average over 50 new tracks per month, even after a year." But it added that while it believes the new limits will be enough for most people, it added: "For anyone who thinks they might reach these limits, we hope you'll consider checking our our Unlimited and Premium services."
We're not sure how many people this cut will affect but if you're a Spotify user let us know whether these new limits will affect you or make you consider paying for the Premium or Unlimited services.

Go to a shooting range, rent the choices out, and see which one feels the best for you.
Hello I am pretty new to handguns. My dad wants to get me a handgun of my choice for my birthday. I did some research and I found a few that I liked. I just need some advice on which one people will recommend the most. I have a $1000 limit.
Five Seven
PX4 storm baretta
Hecklar and Koch HK45
Glock 21
Sig Sauer P-229
.40 cal and .357 barrel
Go to a shooting range, rent the choices out, and see which one feels the best for you.
They are all good choices, as stated above try them and see what fits you and your needs best
Also you may want to think of use. Target or protection.
You really need to try to shoot them,they are all different feeling and handling.Also,while recoil is subjective,you don't necessarily want to learn a handgun with alot of recoil.The 9 and I believe the 5.7 are mild,the 45 in an HK will be mild,and the 40 and 357 are going to be a bit more intense and flip more.The 5.7 is a cool round,it shoots very flat but it isn't cheap or available everywhere.
Of your choices,I'd take the HK,it and arguably the FN are the highest quality guns on the list.You may want to consider the compact if carry comes into play,fullsize HKs don't hide real easy.
Good luck,and enjoy testing them out if you can.
Also,welcome and Happy Birthday.
Welcome! I agree with the others here; go out and rent whatever pistols you are interested in, then make your decision!
well right now my main goal is just for target practice but the best concealed weapon is my main outlook. I will try to attend a shooting range to figure out which is best for me
Five Seven -> You can only get target loads if your a civilian, still a good gun though
PX4 storm BERETTA -> Good gun, you're 1000 buck limit could be used for ammo + holster
Hecklar and Koch HK45 -> Dude get this gun 3rd
Glock 21 -> Dude get this gun 2nd
Sig Sauer P-229 -> Dude get this gun 1st
.40 cal and .357 barrel -> .40 .45 9mm IMO... .357 sig hard to find

|Local welding outfit Norton will get me a big bottle 60 or 80 (not sure) all filled up for $150, and other place has about same price also. Ive checked on ebay and it seems like it'll cost you same if you buy it on ebay and have it shipped and then filled up at your local welding supply store
i prefer flux core simply becuase i dont have to worry about running out of gas, the tensile on the stuff i bought th other day is rigth around 21k or somthing to that effect, i think gasless will weld just as well as the operators skills, ive gotten full penetration through a body panel withotu blowing a hole in it and only paid 7 bucks for the welding wire(walmart speical)
but alas im just a kid and my version of "a good weld" is different from some of you guy who have done it for a while
my .02 cents anyhow
cheap gas bottle
Only one has pointed out the fact that you can use CO-2 for mig I used it for years, It is ture that tne argon/CO2 mix is better. but some of us have to to start out with less money. A cheap supply for a CO2 bottle is a soft drink CO2 bottle I have bought them from the junk yard for $5. they are bid enough to last a year or more. People sell them for the aluminum not the bottle. I have traded them out at the local welding supplier full for about $15. no questions asked. Just like every body else you aare just paying for the gas at that point..
Have fun
where to buy a cheap argon gas bottle
There are several responses to this question. It depends on where you live as state laws differ as store policies differ.
In my area the best price and service was the welding supply. They sold me a a used 20 cf tank. (it was cheaper then a new tank) Later my needs dictated the need for a larger tank (a small fee, a 40 cf tank) Because I always buy from them, it is a drop and pick system I never worry about tank testing dates. I have the freedom of different gas mixes. I do not have to wait for "MY" tank to be filled.
Northern Tool Tractor Supply are in my area. Their policy here states there is a $12 fee per tank that was not purchased from them Their price was $35 higher than the welding supply I deal with
Shop around!...russ
|You could probably get a lot of disagreement on that one. I think it will be fairly well agreed on that MIG is better and probably few people would prefer the gas-less flux core but this is mostly due to weld appearance. There is certainly an advantage to using flux core outdoors or in any drafty area but IMO MIG is better when it can be used. Just looking at the spec sheet the flux core seems to be comparable to gas shielded wire and indeed some welders will say it is just as strong but in my experience I have not found this to be the case and I would discourage the use of it for any critical weld. That said it can be used successfully for most work but as with anything it depends a lot on the quality of the weld. Of course there are different types of wire in both MIG and flux core so it really is not as simple as "which is best MIG or flux core" but for the smaller hobby type machines it does kind of come down to that and IMO I would say to use MIG as the first choice and gas-less flux core as a last resort. We have been talking about the gas-less flux core wires up until now but there are some really good gas shielded flux core wires out there that will hold their own against just about any kind of welding. These "duel shield" wires have been around for quite a long time in industrial welding but until recently only in sizes too large for a home type machine but this is changing. One particularly good wire, Hobart Excell Arc 71, is available in .035 and for a 220 volt machine this stuff is simply fantastic and can be used about any where one would use solid wire but it welds even easier and makes a beautiful weld bead. This type of wire uses C/25 or straight CO2 gas and leaves a light slag over the weld bead that will easily brush off or will fall off on it's own. I have found the Excell Arc to be a great wire for poor fit-ups with a gap or holes to be filled and it will easily weld really slick in any position, even overhead.
Has anyone done a comparison between flux and gas? Mainly comparing strength of the weld.
Only asking as I just received a free welder that can do both and right off the bat I was gonna go for gas but I will probably only be welding exhaust and maybe a shifter bracket or two.
|That Tractor Supply price is not out of line and you touched on a big advantage- they are open on weekends, seems weekends when the gas outfits are closed are the most likely times to run out They also will exchange any bottle as long as you own it and it is in date. The last Acetylene bottle I took in to them had been expired for about a year and they took it anyway telling me they would get it tested but they just did me a favor on that on. Get the biggest bottle you can handle because the fill price difference between the small bottles and the big ones is not very much and the price per cubic foot of gas is a heck of a lot cheaper when you fill a big tank. Sometimes it may be tempting to just forget the gas and use flux core but when you consider the cost difference between flux core and the solid wire the gas does not seem so expensive.
Strange thing
In all the years I have welded, I haven't bought or leased a bottle of any kind for thirty years. I buy a bottle contract that cost 100-150 dollars for the bottle first time plus the fill. Then just trade the bottle when it is enpty. At the end of five years if I don't want the bottle anymore I can turn it in and get my money back. If I do, they just extend the contract with no extra expense. There is no use requirement or time limits. Due to a recent move, my new contracts are only a couple years old but before, some were over twenty years old and I got the money back for all of them.So for the price of one bottle, you are assured that you have current bottles and some recourse if they are leaking.
|I'm not sure it's in line, but that about what I paid for the first bottle. They sweetened the deal by telling me "Your first fill up is free" Wow, woope dud. I bought it and just pay to exchange for a full one (at like 30 bucks a pop) when it runs out. After you refill that a couple of times, you figure out you only need a whisper of that gas if your welding indoors.
|I got a lil bottle at an AirGas company. They sold me the 20cm bottle filled for $90. Of course they will refill.
|Prof. T. Soggmeyer
maybe found a souce?
I called Tractor Supply in the next town and they have a #1 bottle for 116.00. they don't refill them, they only will do an exchange. Does this seem in line?The welding supply store is closed on weekends so I can't call them till Monday.
|Henry Highrise
|Where I live....you can lease them on a yearly basis or buy them. It is cheaper to buy them in the long run. The same welding supply stores that lease them....will also sell them to you.
|Before investing in the bottle(s) make sure your local supplier will fill them. The local suppliers where I live simply refuse to fill oxygen, acetylene and argon bottles which are not leased from them. I have to drive 3.5 hours round trip to a supplier that will fill owner owned bottles. Makes me furious. I've owned my own tanks, well, forever, and now the gas suppliers have basically put a gun to my head to go on their over priced lease plan.
Welding gas
You can always lease a bottle of most any kind from your local welding supply. But regardless of how often you use the welder,you will still be billed on a regular basis for the use of the bottle. I've found the best way to go is to purchase the bottle. That way if you don't use it for a period of time there is no expense other than the cost of the gas.
Also unless you are planning on welding aluminum, CO2 will work just about as good as Argon or the Argon/Co2 Steel mix gas. And it is normaly much cheaper than pure Argon. I have 2, Co2 bottles that I use for mig welding and they both came from a soft drink machine. They have the same connection as the regulator on the mig welder and they cost me next to nothing. I exchange them with the welding supply when I need to have them refilled and never have to worry about paying for the cost of testing the bottle that way.
I also have a regular Argon bottle that I use strictly for tig welding, that isn't used very much. I normally have it refilled about twice a year and don't have to pay rental fees on it either, but it is always there when I need it.

For a while I have been shifting back and forth over whether a Mini-14 really needs a scope. I'm getting up in years and my eyes are kind of tired, so, I do believe an optical device would be useful. However, I don't know what would be the best way to go.
We know that the .223/5.56 caliber is not really a long range cartridge. It is probably at its best at no more than 300 yards. So, how much scope would someone need? Once when I was in a gun store, the clerk was mounting a big old monster scope (something like 4-18 power, i didn't know for sure) on a Tactical Mini. I thought that was overkill. But, if that is how the owner wants to spend his money, that is his right. It just seemed to eliminate the reason to have such a handy carbine in the first place.
I have been thinking of either a red dot sight or maybe a small 4 power scope. Maybe a scope made for handguns would be good for me. I'd love to hear some more opinions.

The following description is found on the website which is part of the Lancashire Record Office site.
This database provides a list of names of police officers, particularly those who served with the Lancashire County Constabulary from the force's inception in 1840 up to 1925.
This was intended primarily as an index to the County Constabulary's Examination Books, the principal personnel records of the force. These volumes contain information about policemen and women on admission to the force as well as details of their subsequent career. The dates given are the dates of joining the force, taken from the covering dates of the examination books.
The database is comprehensive for this series of records between 1840 and 1925. If you are unable to visit us to examine the original record in person, a photocopy of an entry in the Books can be supplied by post at a cost of £10. There is a closure period on the Examination Books which means that they are not open to public inspection in our Searchroom until 85 years after the last entry in them.
The database also includes names of officers who served in some Lancashire borough police forces: Rochdale, Southport, Preston and Wigan, among other towns and cities in the county, had their own police forces at various times. The index is not comprehensive for those forces, based as it is on surviving records available at Lancashire Record Office.
References are also given in the database to other series of personnel records that we hold. There are, for instance, numerical registers (PLA 12), photograph books (PLA 13), record sheets (PLA 54) and pension and other records (PLA 14). Obituaries in the Lancashire Constabulary Journal (LCJ) are also noted. We can undertake a comprehensive search of all the police records we have and supply copies for a cost of £20.
Because of the variety of information available and differing costs involved, depending on what information is available, you should email us first of all about the record you have identified. We will then inform you as to what we hold and what the cost will be to send copies to you. Closure periods on some classes of records may limit the information we can make available.

City Hall has had enough of knocking on doors.
New Chiefland City Manager Kevin Gay told commissioners Monday night that the city spends about $6,000 a year in man hours sending staff out to city residents' homes to let them know payment for their utility bills is late.
"We'd like to dissolve the program," Gay said. "It's costing the city quite a bit."

Consumer Reports Recommends Chevy Volt
In its December issue, Consumer Reports magazine bestows its receommendation on the Chevrolet Volt, General Motors' plug-in electric car — a coveted endorsement from a magazine that doesn't recommend very many American cars. Already lauded as the Motor Trend Car of the Year and North American Car of the Year, the Volt could see its sales rise even more now that it has gotten the nod from such a widely-read publication as Consumer Reports.
The Volt is purely electric for its first thirty five miles of driving, after which a gasoline-powered motor drives an electric generator and extends the car's range to more than three hundred miles. The magazine notes that running on electricity alone, the Volt costs about four cents per mile at national-average electric rates. Here's what else Consumer Reports is saying (click through to watch their video):
Consumer Reports now recommends the Volt plug-in hybrid after new data from our 2011 Annual Auto Survey shows it earned much better than average reliability.
Very few of the 116 Volt respondents had any serious problems in the first few months of ownership. To be recommended a vehicle must do well in our testing, have average or better reliability, and perform adequately in independent safety tests (if included).
In our testing we found the Volt, which uses an electric motor and a gas engine, delivers quick, quiet acceleration, very low running costs in electric mode, and the equivalent of 99 mpg overall. But it has limited visibility and seats only four people.
