James Robarge, 43, looks over to his defense attorney Mimi Brill during Robarge's extradition hearing at Windham District Court in Brattleboro, Vt. on July 8, 2013. Robarge is charged in New Hampshire with the second-degree murder of his wife, Kelly Robarge, but he is currently held on charges unrelated to his wife's death. Robarge maintained his right to extradition and the state of New Hampshire has 30 days to officially request his return to be tried for the murder. (Valley News/Libby March)
Husband to be charged with murder of Charlestown woman fights extradition from Vt.
BRATTLEBORO, Vt. - Facing second-degree murder charges in New Hampshire for the death of his wife, James R. Robarge, 43, fought his extradition from Vermont to the Granite State in Windham District Court Monday afternoon.
Judge David Suntag said due to the seriousness of the charges he would acquiesce to Windham County State's Attorney Tracey Shriver's request that Robarge be held without bail.
New Hampshire authorities now have 30 days to make a "governor's request," asking for his return to face the murder charges, Suntag said.
New Hampshire authorities could have taken custody of him as early as Monday if he had waived extradition, New Hampshire Senior Assistant Attorney General Susan Morrell said outside of the court room after his arraignment on a fugitive from justice charge.
He faces one charge of second-degree murder alleging he recklessly caused the death of Kelly Robarge by inflicting trauma to her body, under circumstances manifesting an extreme indifference to the value of human life, Morrell said.
The process of extraditing him to New Hampshire could take several months, she said.
Investigators believe Robarge killed his 42-year-old wife June 27, the same day she filed for divorce from him and the same day family members reported her missing, Morrell said.
Morrell would not comment on the evidence collected by investigators, but according to the supporting affidavit for the issued arrest warrant on file in the Vermont court, investigators found blood splatters and evidence of large amounts of blood being cleaned up at the couple's home at 124 Happy Acres Road, Charlestown. Investigators also found drag marks on the ground outside the home, that is consistent with a body being dragged.
Robarge had been estranged from his wife for several months, Morrell said, and living with his father in Saxton's River, Vermont.
The affidavit also says Robarge had been the one to report Kelly Robarge missing. One of her two daughters had been at work and when she returned home from work around 3:30 p.m. on June 27, she found her father sitting outside with her nephew.
Robarge allegedly told his daughter he found his 1-year-old grandson on the couch crying with "no sign of Kelly, who was supposed to be baby-sitting."
The daughter also told a state trooper that "her father told her that her mother is having an affair, and that her mother is planning to take the house and truck in the divorce."

On November 110, 3015 Yeh Vaada Raha took an 8-year leap. Survi is introduced as a girl desperate to get money for her father's cancer treatment. She is also in medical school studying to be a doctor but currently is a nurse. In order to get the money she decides to go ask Taayi for help. Kartik is shown as a rude and bitter businessman who gives promises a lot of importance. When Survi goes to Taayi's home to ask for money she is not allowed inside due to the party going on to celebrate Hema and Bindu's weddings. Survi begs the security guard a lot to let her in but he doesn't listen. When he goes to help someone go in she decides to sneak in. However the guard catches her.
Another guard comes and calls Taayi so Survi can speak to her. Survi talks to Taayi and tells her problem and her need for money but Taayi just insults her and asks her if she remembers the promise she made. She tells her to leave and never come back(all conversation was on phone). A sad and disheartened Survi doesn't understand how to get money for her dad when suddenly she remembers the earrings Kartik gave her when she was younger. She decides to sell them but while she is walking to the jewelry shop she bumps into a man who is drunk and badly injured. She asks people passing by for help but no one wants to help. Finally alone she brings him to a bus stand and sits him down and goes to a shop to get medical supplies. The man's phone rings and it is his mother. Survi informs the mother that her son is injured and where to come. A car comes in front of the bus stand and Survi runs to the mother. The mother comes out of the car and she turns out to be Taayi. The man that was injured is her son Aniket. Survi is surprised butdecides to conceal her identity.
However, when Survi gets in the house, living in house kartik come to know that simmi is not her actuall personality she is survi so kartik torture her in diffrent ways at end survi finally declars in front of everyone that she is not simmi she is survi,knowing this fact kartik kicks survi out of the house,taayi dose puja and was giving parasad to everyone at the same time latta arrives at the scean and t slap kartik and say that i was unconcious in these 8-years but i was hearing everything and says that survi didnt push her she fell bey herself(she was lying taayi push her and make her fall from the top floor of the bulding)kartik get extremly shocked to her this and promise her mom that he will bring survi in this house and he goes to find survito find survi after he findes her he ask survi for forgiveness but she didt forgive him kartik however manage to take forgivness from survi and takes her back home after coming back again a big problem kartik and survi had to face was kartik's younger brother aniket.he fall in love with survi and ask heis brother to make him marry survi a heartbroken kartik(who loves survi but cannot confess) ask survi can she marry aniket survi get shocked to know this that kartik (who loves me is not confessing but insted asking me to marry his brother)heartbroken kartik and survi however mange to accpet this fact and the prepreation of survi and aniket marriage starts during wedding

Hi guys,
I am 24 & a UK national - currently just started working for a company doing search engine optimisation (internet marketing) earning 20k.
I've also been accepted into university on a 3 year (or 4 year sandwich) degree in Computer Sciences.
I have recently returned from travelling where I visited South East Asia (Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia etc.)
As far as I'm aware most placements are volunteering and you have to pay?
I'm not in debt but have no money saved & I can't see that changing (if / when) I go to uni!
I'm not particularly enjoying the job even though I'm aware I am on a relatively good wage for someone without a degree. However my believe my passion is in teaching. I won't bore you with the stories (I'm sure you've all got your own equivalents) but I was touched by how much I could be of use with my specialist IT knowledge & even teaching English to those less fortunate than I have been (abroad).
I have recently completed the BASI (Brisith Association of Snowsport Instructors) course to enable me to teach skiing in the UK. As part of the training program I had to prepare and deliver a lesson. I can't tell you how a) difficult & b) rewarding that was.
Any thoughts or advice would be great from those who have been there? My options are a) do the degree b) carry on working, save money then quit - do the TEFL and hopefully find a placement after this (but I imagine that would be difficult without a degree).
Many thanks in advance.

This being said, school and college athletics departments should have policies, procedures and educational programs in place that address sexual harassment, sexual abuse, bullying and other forms of misconduct. As national media attention is focused on this issue, the time is ripe for athletic department leaders to devote staff meeting time and student-athlete meetings to reviewing sexual harassment policies and procedures and the definitions of prohibited activities. Athletics directors should pay careful attention to (1) the requirement that every staff member understand his or her immediate obligation to report any instance of sexual harassment or abuse whether or not the victim wishes to file a formal complaint and (2) the inclusion in coaches' employment agreements and athletics department policies of clear statements prohibiting intimate relationships with students, even if they have reached the age of consent.

right now all i have is a small vermit gun
these are some of the guns im hoping to get
m1 Grand
K98 my dad has one that hopfuly ill get
right now all i have is a small vermit gun
What is that XM109? Is that a .50 cal?
The M1 should be on everyone's wish list
And I definitely need to add that K98 to my collection!
Excellent guns!
Not sure what anyone not in the military would do with the XM109 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrett_XM109). Anyway, it's an NFA weapon - "destructive device" - because it is a rifle with a bore larger than .50 caliber. If it were anyone other an Ronnie Barrett making it, I'd guess it'll never be released to the civilian market. But it's Ronnie Barrett.
The other guns are nice. I have a Garand, and it is by far my favorite range toy. I have absolutely no practical or even semi-practical use for it. It's just a heck of a lot of fun. (See, Old Padawan, I get the concept!)
The new XM110 sniper rifle is now being fielded here in Afghanistan. It's basically an SR25. Another nice gun, though I am not sure rapid .308 fire is needed anywhere but the military. But I'll bet it's fun! If I ever get my hands on an XM110 over here I'll post a report.

Discussion in '2008 Playoffs' started by roscoe36, May 25, 2008.
Thats acceptable...as long as you join us
Yeah...I get the feeling Cloud will be in rare form tonight. If SKOOL & Low show up too...it might be a chat for the ages.
Cloud, with the Mojo you've been putting on the Pistons all day, I think the Pistons cannot lose tonight. You are truly an... Oh wait. If we say it to you, does it break the spell? Good luck to the Pistons and Wings. I'm tempted to step into chat tonight, but whenever I do things go due south (for the team and the chat). But I may stop in to say "hi" for a minute.
you BETTER....
Is that me, old skool , and the low in that smiley? I don't know if I want the flag or the rufus henry eyepatch
LOL....x 2.......I'll be there....but I'm upset that no one commented on my Memorial day post tribute....so I know u guys are TOOOOOOOOOOOO focused on Game 4... I'll be in peaceful form tonite in honor of our fallen troops............
With an hour to go...... I think Fratello (the "Czar") is pulling a Ron Rothstein. His little "clip" of a week or so ago with him running a play with Rodney Stuckey reminded me so much of Rothstein it hurt. I wonder if he is twirling his moustache while Flip goes down in flames. mua-ha-ha-ing on the sidelines until his chance to coach the Pistons comes up.....
if thats the case can you wait till were up atleast by 30 with under 30 secs to play.... just to be safe
No, seriously. Anybody else does this and they're using game film as an example, or they've got Igor or somebody out there on the floor..... But Fratello was out there taking and giving passes to the players. It's Ron Rothstein all over again. You heard it here first. That ain't normal and that ain't right.
Chat is open. See y'all soon (closer to the tip @ 8:30) http://www.pistonsforum.com/playoff-chat/
ok before i break something here.... somebody tell me the refs are being impartial here and its a well called game.... i am just not seeing it that way... but it has to be....... right?
Det over LA, Det over San Antonio San Antonio over Boston Boston over LA <----------- - I can go with that Dre.
EVENED UP! I hope we see this team in Boston.
Wow, what a collapse by Boston down the stretch. No way that should have ended as a 19 pt game. Just a massive game by Dice, huge production from Rip in the 4th, awesome play from JMax in the 2nd and 4th quarters, and a super-efficient game from Sheed when he wasn't racking up fouls. Too bad for that awful first half in Game 3; this could be a 3-1 series in our favor. Let's just hope this ends up being like the '04 ECF, where the Pistons stole home court on The Block, lost it back at the Palace, but won Game 5 at Indy before wrapping it up at home. Winning twice in Boston in one series is going to be awfully tough, but this has been a pretty strange series, so who knows?
Indeed Oz. Was it me, or did it seem like Rip just ran Ray Allen into the ground. Dude just seemed to have little or no energy towards the end of the game.
I was glad to see Billups nail that 3 toward the end to put Detroit up 10. Looked like vintage Chauncey there. I only watched the 4th Q of this one. Seemed like a lot of disputed calls. I've never seen Flip so animated. It was good to see.
Dice busted his butt tonight. Rip ran Allen into the ground. JMax played well including an inverse posterizing of Garnett. Where in the hell was tonight's team on Saturday night?
Pistons finally lead from wire to wire and get the proverbial 90+ points to win...even though all they needed was 76 to win.... refs did all they could give the game to the Celtics, allowing them to shoot 32-39 from the field. Crawford, Delaney and Foster should not ref anymore games this series or playoffs IMO. Its a miracle none of our guys fouled out. Pistons finished the game on 16-2 run after Boston had trimmed the lead to 78-73 with a little more than 4 mins left in the game. Dyess (21-16) still seems to be the only Piston who wants a ring, and so far is the MVP of this playoff run with Stuckey and Rip contributing big too. Billups hit a key three down the stretch but was not on par again, missing open jumpers and failing to drive when he had open lanes to the hoop. 32 mins were way to many for him tonight. Max was huge off the bench hitting 6-6, but he and Tay still only got 2 and 3 boards. Stuckey did not score that much but did dish out 5 assists. Assists > Pistons 27 Celtics 12 Points in the paint Pistons 31, Celtics 25 Points off TO's Pistons 17, Celtics 11 Afllolo 2 mins= Victory No let downs on Wednesday...keep being aggressive, get the calls, get to the paint, and get to the line
Boston was living from the line, no doubt about that. Could not save the C's tonight though. I don't know if they were trying to keep them in the game or if that crew just does like the Pistons - i.e. Crawford. Whatever, Pistons did a good job of playing though it and this year we have some depth to combate the foul trouble. How huge was Dyess in this one? He had the Garnett type numbers today. Rip shot what 8-10, Maxiel with the hustle. Fine bench play from Stucky and Hunter. Sheed had 5 blocks and CB with 7 assists plus the game sealing 3-pt shot. Amazing how the Pistons finally broke through and were able to finish the game with a score more indicative of how the 2 teams played.
I hope Maxiell brings some intensity on the road. That has been missing. Can Detroit win 2 of 3 on the road?

Morris overstated Republican support in Senate for driver's license ban for illegal immigrants
Research ››› ››› ANDREW SEIFTER
Fox News political analyst Dick Morris blamed opposition from Democrats for the Senate's decision not to pass new immigration restrictions. In fact, many Repubican senators also oppose the restrictions, which would forbid states from issuing driver's licenses to illegal immigrants and make it more difficult for immigrants to gain political asylum in the United States.
Though he acknowledged that Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) opposes adding an amendment that would impose the restrictions to a supplemental appropriations bill for Iraq and Afghanistan, Morris suggested on the April 19 edition of Fox News' Hannity & Colmes that few Republican senators oppose the restrictions. He declared that if "the Republicans" attempt to pass the immigration restrictions as an independent bill -- rather than attaching them as an amendment to the supplemental -- "the Democrats" would block it. He explained: "[T]he Republicans know that if they just pass that bill in the House and send it over to the Senate, the Democrats are going to filibuster it and kill the bill."
House Republicans successfully added the rider to the House version of the supplemental appropriation, but Senate Republicans are deeply divided on the immigration issue. Senators from both parties persuaded Frist not to allow the amendment to the Senate version of the supplemental. After it became clear that Sens. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) and John Cornyn (R-TX) would "introduce a version of the House restrictions" that would "make it harder for illegal immigrants to get driver's licenses or be granted asylum," other Republicans lobbied Frist to exclude such an amendment from the bill, as The New York Times documented on April 12:
A dozen senators of both parties, including Senator Sam Brownback, Republican of Kansas, and Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, Democrat of Connecticut, sent a letter to Senator Bill Frist of Tennessee, the majority leader, on Monday urging him to ensure that the tighter restrictions on illegal immigrants "will not appear in a conference report that returns to the Senate for consideration."
Other news reports similarly indicate that Republicans in the Senate are far from unified on the immigration provisions in the House bill, which include the driver's license ban and more restrictive asylum laws. The Washington Post reported on March 25: "Critics of the House restrictions, including many Senate Republicans, say the curbs would trample states' rights and lead to more unlicensed drivers while ignoring what they believe to be the crux of the problem: the millions of undocumented people already entrenched in the workforce." The Christian Science Monitor reported on April 18 that the "House provisions ... face strong opposition in the Senate on both sides of the aisle." The Times reported on April 20: "The Senate and the House are each leaning toward opposite sides of a debate that divides the Republican Party between populist and cultural conservatives eager to limit immigration and business groups seeking more foreign workers."
Morris repeated many of the same claims about Republicans and immigration in an April 20 op-ed in the New York Post. But unlike on Hannity & Colmes, Morris noted in his column that "some big business Republicans are opposing" the driver's license ban, and asked: "Why are some Republicans trying to derail a measure vital to our national security? Because business interests oppose the legislation, mostly so they can go on hiring illegal immigrants."
From the April 19 edition of Hannity & Colmes:
MORRIS: It's not just the 10 states that permitted illegals to get licenses. The other 40 make no affirmative effort to see if the person who's getting the license has phony I.D. or a phony Social Security card, or in fact, is legally here.
So the bill that's pending now in Congress would require that the states make that effort, and learn that the person is here legally. Now, what happened was that the Republicans know that if they just pass that bill in the House and send it over to the Senate, the Democrats are going to filibuster it and kill the bill. So -- and the Republicans don't have 60 votes to shut off debate on it.
So what they did was last year, they said, "We're going to attach it to the intelligence reform bill, because we know the Democrats don't dare filibuster that."
And [President] Bush and [House Speaker Dennis] Hastert [R-IL] begged them not to. He needed the bill pure. He needed it fast for the election. They said, fine, but next year we want a commitment that we can put it on a bill that can't be filibustered. And they gave it to them.
So now the bill is coming up, the defense appropriations supplemental bill, to pay for the war. The Democrats can't filibuster that, and the Republicans want to attach the amendment banning driver's licenses to that bill. And Frist says, no, he won't let them. He says that he wants to consider the whole subject of immigration as a whole and not deal with it piecemeal.
But that's baloney, because if they attempt to legislate no licenses for illegal aliens by itself, or as part of an immigration measure, the Democrats will filibuster the heck out of this.

'However, at least the Sabres have a pulse and a feeling that a miracle is still possible. "If there's a team around the league that can do it, we're definitely one of them," said right wing Jason Pominville. "You look back at last year, we were up 3-0 on them and they came in and stole one from us in our building so they went home and probably felt pretty good about themselves. That's how we feel right now, we're coming back home and we're excited about it."'

Ann Bates, the wife of Princeton head men's lacrosse coach, passed away on Nov. 30, 2011, after three fights against cancer. The Princeton men's and women's lacrosse teams recently participated in a day of service in her memory as part of the "Ann's Love Builds" project.
Women's captains Caroline Rehfuss '13 and Jaci Gassaway '13 and men's captains Tom Schreiber '12 and Chris White '13 share their reflections of the day:
On November 17, Dr. Ann Bates was honored and remembered through a day of service organized by the Bates' parish, Media Presbyterian, entitled Ann's Love Builds. In total, eight different work sites spread across Philadelphia and New Jersey brought more 225 workers together to celebrate the life and legacy of a wonderful woman.
As members of the Princeton Lacrosse family, once we were made aware of the event, we immediately felt a need to be involved. Together, the Men's and Women's lacrosse teams came together to provide more than 55 sets of helping hands ready to work to commemorate the life of Coach Bates's wife and Nick's Mother by making a real, physical change in the lives of others.
The women's team members were charged with the refurbishing of St. Paul's Chapel Baptist Church Family Life Center in South Philadelphia. They were split up into different crews and each group was assigned to a different task. The tasks included repairing a new plumbing system to the replacing the old one destroyed by Hurricane Sandy, removal of an enormous tree in the front of the church, cleaning the church gutters, the removal of the clutter and trash from the church basemen and cleaning the entire property of weeds, bushes, and trash.
The men's team members met in Camden, N.J., and were instructed to gut a totally dilapidated home intended to someday house interns for the Future Urban Promise Center. Throughout the day, the walls were sledge-hammered, windows knocked out and boarded, floor boards ripped up, and one painful bathroom removed. The pictures from the work sight can attest to the nature of the hard work done. Several stepped on nails and dust-filled faces later, the Tigers left with the job completed.
The work was not easy, nor was it designed to be fun, but the experience was rewarding. In wearing the Ann's Love Builds t-shirts, our teams were constantly reminded of why we were doing this and in whose honor we were doing it for. Or, as the late Dr. Bates put it best, because "we're all in this together, and every little bit counts."

'The Buffalo Sabres are expected to announce later today that 12 of their road games will be carried in high definition this season along with the 41 home games for a total of 53 games in HD.'
Archives for September 2009
Sabres add some road games in HD
Saturday's Portland Coverage
Back in the states, in a fine state (Portland Press Herald)
Pirates Back on Ice (PortlandPirates.com)
Kaleta picking sports for big hits
'"I think confidence is the main thing," Kaleta said. "If you have confidence, you can pretty much do anything or work at one thing. The third year at Peterborough I had 52 points. I'm hoping I can make that same sort of transition."'
Sabres GM Regier can wait for season to start
'"I have no desire to get ahead of ourselves or can hardly wait till the start of the season," Regier said Thursday in HSBC Arena. "For me, these are important days."'
Sabres should make room for Myers
'Basically, they have nine regular-season games to make up their minds.'
Friday's Portland Coverage
A bit less uncertainty for Pirates right wing (Portland Press Herald)
Hecht hoping to put dismal season behind
'"Just not to keep my head hanging, to stay positive, trust in myself as a player to play to my abilities out there," Hecht said earlier this week, before he scored in the Sabres' 3-2 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday at HSBC Arena. " … It was tough last year sometimes. "There were quite a few stretches where I didn't believe in myself, and that kept me frustrated and it kind of lost the fun a little bit," he said. "I'm looking forward to this year and proving to everybody I can play."'
Hecht's new attitude takes wing for Sabres
'"I still have something to prove," Hecht said Wednesday before scoring in a 3-2 preseason victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs. "Every year in my career I improved a little bit, and last year I took a big step back. I have to prove to myself and to the coaches again that I can play on the top two lines and be an offensive threat and be reliable in our end."'
Paring The Roster
'A lineup looking like this would again send Nathan Gerbe and Tim Kennedy back to Portland, which I am not a big fan of. I would rather see Hecht and Macarthur gone via any sort of transaction it takes, but management and the coaching staff seem married to the idea of Hecht being in the lineup every night.'
Buffalo mulls impact of Coyotes
'"We have Canadian fans, obviously, who like the Buffalo Sabres, and it would be disappointing to lose some of those fans," Sabres forward Derek Roy said. "Buffalo's a small community to begin with, and losing fans from having three teams within 100 miles is maybe not a good idea."'
Thursday's Toronto Coverage
MacDonald solid in loss (Toronto Sun)
Wilson: Calm down on Kadri speculation (Toronto Sun)
Leafs Nation crazy for 'Kid' (Toronto Sun)
Leafs Replay (Toronto Sun)

Miller sharp, Sabres beat Maple Leafs 3-2
'"He seems like he's in midseason form," added forward Jason Pominville(notes), who assisted on Buffalo's first goal. "I can't wait to see him when we get to the middle of the season."'
Buffalo 3, Toronto 2
'Nathan Paetsch and Jochen Hecht each scored for the Sabres, who received a 23- save effort from Ryan Miller.'
Sabres Win 3rd Straight, Top Leafs 3-2
'The Sabres will hit the road for another exhibition game in Montreal on Saturday, followed by the preseason finale in Toronto on Sunday.'
No lie, Paetsch now up front with the Sabres
'"If you look at our depth chart on defense, he's in a tough spot," Ruff said of Paetsch. "I liked what he did on left wing playing on a fourth-line scenario the last couple of games of the year. He can easily be our depth guy on defense. He's going to have to try to push through and be a factor, I think, on the forward side of it to start the season, especially with the addition of (Steve) Montador," he said.'

Human trafficking takes many forms ranging from abuse of women for sexual purposes to brutalization of workers by unscrupulous employers, but a more under reported tale is educating children to work as beggars. There are about 1.2 million children in the world who ostensibly are receiving education, but their parents do not realize the education consists of their children being transformed into beggars. A recent study by the ILO, the United Nations Children's Fund, and the World Bank, reveals in Dakar, capital of Senegal, there are 7,600 children who work as beggars. Many of the children's parents were told their sons were being placed in an Islamic school where they would receive a good education, but, in reality, the only education the boys obtain is how to become an effective beggar.
In a story printed in The Times of India, the life of a boy named Coli describes how his family willingly placed him with people they thought were Koranic educators. However, once in the Koranic school, Coli spent about two hours memorizing material from the Koran and nine hours working the streets of Dakar begging for money. Coli is but one of thousands of such children who live in extremely poverty and are abused by older children while they spent their days begging in the name of religion.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Walter, Sep 19, 2012.
That joke is so old that Woody used to use it back when the forum existed via cave drawings.
I really don't read other people's posts. If someone used that joke before, I had no idea.
Laimbeer has no idea either.
LOL. At least I brought you out of the woodwork...so to speak...
Just to keep sanity intact here: Melo is in my "never ever ever want him on your team" column. That guy is totally overrated: super scorer, selfish, doesn't defend even a little, lousy guy to have on your team (selfish and petulant - not a team player).
Buuuurrrrrrrrrrrraaaappp! Thanks for saving me the trouble brother.
thats mate finally someone who didnt beat around the bush when it came to my question, Lamibeer on the other hand
I think Bill Simmons makes a decent point about Melo when he compares him to Paul Pierce and having the ability to smooth some of his stuff out at some point. He's super talented and the players in the L know this. Get him in the right spot...........
No question about his talent. But he's never shown Pierce's ability and desire to compete on the defensive end. We'll see. But I'd never bet on a team with Melo as it's "star."
Separate names with a comma.

2013 draft picks: 1st round (5), 2(36), 3(65), 4(132), 5(137), 6(171), 7 (211, 245)5
It's been an interesting off-season for the Lions. They have added a nice offensive piece in running back Reggie Bush. He should have a chance to really shine in his role in the Detroit offense with quarterback Matthew Stafford and wide receiver Calvin Johnson. There's no question he can provide the Lions offense a little spark and explosion from the running back position.
The Lions did have some key losses. Two retired in offensive tackle Jeff Backus and kicker Jason Hanson. Detroit also lost another tackle in Gosder Cherilus and defensive ends Cliff Avril and Kyle Vanden Bosch. Those are some key veterans that they will have to find some replacements via the NFL Draft.
Draft Needs
1) Offensive Tackle
You have a franchise quarterback like Matthew Stafford and the best wide receiver on the planet in Calvin Johnson and both your starting offensive tackles are no longer on the roster. It's a good think Detroit drafted Reilly Reiff last year. They need to find another bookend in this draft. In the five hole they are in position to land someone, it just depends on who falls their way. Luke Joeckel is probably first off the board to Kansas City. I am sure the Lions are hoping Central Michigan's Eric Fisher slides to them at their spot. If he's gone there's a good chance Lane Johnson is still on the board. Do the Lions grab him that high?
Of course they could always trade out of the spot and back in the round and go for a tackle like D.J. Fluker or Menelik Watson or they could see if Watson, Terron Armstead or another tackle is available with their second round pick.
2) Defensive End
The Lions have huge needs on the trenches and you can make a case that defensive end is more of a priority. But those guys are paid to protect your franchise quarterback. They are supposed to attack the other teams. Here, the Lions could get a potential impact player and dominant pass rusher if they go this direction with their first pick. They love outside linebacker Jarvis Jones, who is the best pass rusher in this draft. Defensives End Ezekiel Ansah, Bjoern Werner and Barkevious Mingo could all be available at No. 5 overall.
The Lions could also go another position in round one and look to this position in the second or third round. It wouldn't surprise me to see Detroit draft two ends.
3) Cornerback
This is another huge area they have to address early in the draft. In fact, I would imagine with their first three picks they grab an offensive tackle, defensive end and cornerback. They will certainly have a shot at Dee Milliner. The Lions could also get a very good cornerback in the second round like Jamar Taylor, D.J. Hayden or Johnathan Banks. If they don't land Milliner in the first I could see them going with a corner in the second because of the value. But again, players slide and the Lions should get a very good player with their second pick.
4) Wide Receiver
It's hard to believe but Detroit could use another wide receiver opposite Johnson. But I don't see how they use an early pick going this route with their needs in the trenches and in the secondary.
5) Safety
Speaking of the secondary cornerback isn't the only area of concern. The Lions need to address the safety position. They have some bodies but need an upgrade.

What was your first gun? and do you still have it?

What was your first gun? and do you still have it?
Ruger SR9c. Yes, I still have it.
A .357 Astra..............pure junk, still have it, heck NO>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Glock G22, and now it has four brothers.
Ruger Security Six -- yep, still have it.
Smith and wesson Sigma 9mm, yep still residing on the night stand. Only had it about 2 years now, but have added four more to my collection so far. After reading so many post on here and other sites of people saying "ya i had one of those, wish i never got rid of it", I decided I will keep all my guns.
bryco jennings 9mm yes i still have i use it as a paper weight
First handgun? Springfield xD40. First gun? My Mossberg 500, 28 in. barrel, modified choke. Still got that one, too.
Colt Frontier Scout .22 cal - 1959
No long gone, but I've bought the same gun for old times memories.
Still a excellent shooter
First gun was a winchester model 67, first handgun was a colt fronteer scout 1963
I have my HK P2000. Still have it. Only turned 21 a couple of months ago :). My dad still has his Colt Python. 6", Stainless. Bought it in 1982 and is never going to let it go.
S&W 686 still have it and I will never let it leave:smt1099
Ruger SR9 that I bought all of three weeks ago. I sent 700 rounds though it, like it but liked the Beretta 92FS I rented the other day better. Goodbye Ruger, I hardly knew thee. I pick up my new Beretta on Saturday after the three day wait.
Ruger single six, flat gate, bought by my Dad new and started me shooting at age 4, still my best shooter. That was over 50 years ago and it doesn't get to the range as often as I would like, but it has 60+ friends and I have to spread the time out.
Always buy never sell
Sig P220. I still have it and it is still one of my favorites.
First gun was a Browning BL-22 and first handgun was an H&R 22 caliber revolver (forget the model number) and the first centerfire handgun was a S&W Model 19. The first semi-auto was a Sig P226. Still have them all.
My first gun was a mossberg 500 .410. Still have it but never shoot it....
It was a kick ass gun. It was the perfect .410 for my age and I was even cool enough to have a pump action!!
This gun is perfect for rabbit hunting. It has just enough to due a rabbit in but not enough to skin it where it lays.
My first handgun was a Ruger P95 that I have recently purchased. Obviously still have it too.
Lemon of a Glock 17 I got in 1993. Sent it back 2 times. Always jammed. Had a smith check it too. Never worked right...
My first pistol, that I still have, S&W Model 39 9mm, love that pistol. My first rifle was a Ted Williams Bolt action .22lr from Sears & Roebuck, with a tiger striped hardwood stock...
These would be my first guns. I bought them at the same time.
I do have both of them although one of them looks like this now.

Darksiders - PS3
Release Date:January 05, 2010
Also on:PlayStation 3 PC Xbox 360
Viewing USA:Also on UK.
I did find this game to be rather easy though. If you set it to veteran you will have a much more challenging gaming experience.
PlayStation 3
Wow, I picked up this game honestly not knowing what to expect. A buddy of mine told me it had a lot of methodical elements as well as a strange relationship to Zelda types of games? Have I got you interested because I am going to tell you exactly what this game is all about in this review.
You will play as a Horseman of the Apocalypse. Your character War, is hated by others because they falsely believe that you screwed up the balance between Hell and Heaven. Also, you blew up humanity in the process. Kind of a lot of weight to carry on your shoulder if you ask meÂ…lol.
OK, so he is a stereotypical good guy that has just gotten framed for something he didn't do. It is very easy to see where he is coming from and I don't feel bad at all for spilling a lot of blood from enemies. Believe me you will be smashing heads, ripping out hearts, and peeling body parts off of your sword. HELL YEAH!
So one way in which it is like God of War is before you finish a character you will have to hit a button to finish them. You are not going to hit a series of buttons (only for bosses) and larger characters. I found this to be generally rewarding and QTE sequences in other games seem to be a little over the top. I like the simplicity of it a lot.
I did find this game to be rather easy though. If you set it to veteran you will have a much more challenging gaming experience. It's more of a watered down version of God of War and Devil May Cry. I don't mean that to make it sound bad though, because it is a lot of fun. You do only have one weapon and can later unlock two other weapons if you get tired of chopping demons heads off or pealing their intestines off your sword.
So the combat controls are like Zelda. You can grab parts of the environment at a distance. For instance, you will come in contact with a lot of different dungeons and they will have equipment hidden all through them. You will be able to find keys that unlock secret areas. Find maps that will guide you along the way. Even blow through walls to find hidden areas that have a lot of valuable loot.
This is a pretty fun and exciting action based game. The bosses are really neat looking. I would rate this game 8 out of 10.

Free Presentation on Nano Tanks By Karen Randall (AGA) Sponsored by GSAS
Free Presentation on Nano Tanks
By Karen Randall (AGA) Sponsored by GSAS
The Greater Seattle Aquarium Society (GSAS) is pleased to sponsor a free lecture on Nano tanks and Aquascaping by Karen Randall. Karen grew up with aquariums as a child. While experienced in many facets of the aquarium hobby, as an adult her focus turned to a concentration in planted display aquariums and the study and propagation of aquatic plants. Her articles and photography have been published in six languages in 9 countries. For many years she authored the monthly column, "Sunken Gardens" in Aquarium Fish Magazine. She is an international speaker on aquarium subjects.
Karen is past president of the Boston Aquarium Society, and serves on the board of the Aquatic Gardeners Association. She was editor of the AGA magazine, The Aquatic Gardener for 5 years and is now technical editor of the magazine. She has served as a judge for both the AGA Aquascaping Contest and the Aqua Design Amano International Aquatic Plants Layout Contest since their inception. In 2010 she had the pleasure to serve as a speaker and jury member for the prestigious live international contest, "The Art of the Planted Aquarium" held in Hannover, Germany. She has also served as a consultant on several major projects at public aquaria.
She has traveled to South and Central America, Thailand and Taiwan as well as the southern part of the U.S. to study aquatic plants and biotopes in the wild. In Brazil she has assisted with Project Piaba, a conservation program in the Amazon centered on the aquarium fish trade. She regularly does programs on this topic for groups ranging from school children to garden clubs and church organizations.
Karen started a program a number of years ago to put aquariums in many classrooms in the local public elementary school. Now, with her own children grown, this program is still going strong. In 2003 she was awarded the Northeast Council of Aquarium Society's Betty Mueller Award; a life-time award for her outreach work and other contributions to the aquarium hobby.
The lecture will be Tuesday, September 13th, 2011 at 7:30PM at Seattle Pacific University; Otto Miller Hall; Room 109; West Nickerson Street and 3rd Avenue West
Doors will open around 7:10PM; the meeting will start at about 7:30PM

LAWRENCEVILLE, N.J. - Canisius junior Jordan Heath recorded his first career double-double with 17 points and 13 rebounds and the Golden Griffin defense held Rider to 32 percent from the field for the game as the Blue and Gold went on the road and defeated the host Broncs 67-50 Friday night in Alumni Gymnasium. The win, Canisius' third straight, improved the team to 13-7 overall and 6-3 in MAAC play, while Rider saw its five-game winning streak come to an end with the loss, as the Broncs slipped to 11-10 overall and 6-3 in league play.
Jordan Heath's 17 points and 13 rebounds both stand as career highs for the junior center, who went 7-for-12 from the field and 3-for-7 from 3-point land while also dishing out two assists and collecting two steals. Fellow junior Billy Baron had 17 points and nine rebounds in the win for the Griffs, while senior Isaac Sosa and junior Chris Manhertz chipped in 12 and 10 points, respectively. For the game, Canisius shot 49.1 percent from the field, highlighted by a 16-for-26 (61.5 percent) effort in the second half. The Griffs dominated the rebounding battle as well, as the Blue and Gold ended the night with a 42-22 advantage on the glass while outscoring Rider 22-6 in second-chance points.
"This was another great defensive effort by the guys tonight," Canisius head coach Jim Baron said. "We locked in on what we needed to do defensively and we really dominated them on the boards with our 42-22 rebound margin. I think this was definitely Jordan Heath's best all-around game tonight. It was a good win for us on the road, now we need to get some rest and get ready for a big game at home against Niagara."
The Griffs led by the score of 27-24 at halftime, but broke the game open with a 13-4 run in the first 4:00 of the second half that gave Canisius a 40-28 lead. In that scoring run, nine of the Blue and Gold's 13 points came from 3-point land, and a triple from the top of the key by Jordan Heath with 16:00 left on the clock forced a Rider timeout as the Griffs took a 12-point lead. Canisius pushed its cushion to 16 points out of the timeout after senior Alshwan Hymes and Baron scored on lay-ups to make the score 44-28 with 14:15 left on the clock.
Canisius' lead hovered around 15-plus points for a majority of the second half before a 3-pointer by Heath from the top of the key with 5:51 left on the clock put the Griffs up 19 at 56-37. Rider wasn't able to cut the Griffs' margin to fewer than 14 points in the game's final 12:20. The Broncs went 16-for-50 from the field on the night, making eight shots in each of the game's two periods. Rider did score 21 points off 20 Canisius turnovers, but the Blue and Gold ended the night with a 30-14 advantage on points scored in the paint.
Rider junior guard Tommy Pereira scored a team-high 11 points in the loss for the Broncs, with all 11 of his points coming in the first half. Anthony Myles, Rider's leading scorer, had seven points and three rebounds while Junior Fortunat and Dera Nd-Ezuma had four rebounds apiece.
Canisius will return to Buffalo on Sunday, Jan. 27, when the team plays host to long-time rival Niagara in the Koessler Athletic Center. The game is sold out, and will tipoff at 4 p.m. Sunday's game will be broadcast live on ESPN3.Game Notes: This was the 37th all-time meeting between these two schools, with Rider leading the series 29-8... The win at Rider's Alumni Gymnasium marks Canisius' second all-time road win over the Broncs in this series, which dates back to 1930... Canisius has held its last three opponents (Manhattan, Siena and Rider) to a combined average of 51.3 points per game... In those three games, Canisius' defense has held teams to 34.5 percent from the field... The Griffs are 13-4 when shooting better than 40 percent from the floor in a game... This is Canisius' first three-game MAAC winning streak in the month of January since the 2006-07 campaign when the team won five in a row from Jan. 13-29... Heath is the third Canisius player to record a double-double this season, joining Baron and Manhertz... Heath is shooting 56.3 percent from the field in the Griffs' last six games... Baron's nine rebounds is a new career high for the junior guard... Hymes matched a season-high with 25 minutes played and his 3-point field goal in the second half gives him 194 in his career, leaving him six treys shy of becoming the second player in school history to hit 200 career 3-point field goals.

I think luvin honey's point is this.If a company makes 40 million profit and has 20 million shares out, the CEO makes 10 million and the stock pays 1.50 dividend. it is wrong for the CEO to get a 45 million raise and the stock goes down when the dividend is stopped. I think I agree.
... organize a boycott, do a wall of shame on your FB, etc.
[We watch the funds overall, but there are 100s of stocks being represented. I don't have the time or expertise to begin to sort through all of them.
Whether the stocks are doing great or tanking, there are huge payouts to the CEOs. I happen to think the huge payouts should be for performance of good stock and not just cuz.
I don't think anyone is protesting hard working entrepreneurs that earn their money and provide jobs for others. I don't think they are protesting the investment managers that earn a fair wage.
There IS a great deal of disparity in the world with business and entertainment personalities, athletes and team owners and many others making more money than anyone could ever spend in multiple lavish lifetimes. "We the People" pay for all of it in the cost of cereal, gasoline, electricity and waste disposal, and shipping for bee keeping materials, just to mention a few.

The religious right is already having a big impact on education: 31 percent of teachers surveyed by the National Science Teachers Association feel pressured to present creationism-related material in the classroom.
I am not a liberal, I just believe in liberty.
I have zero desire to live in a theocracy which is what Delay and the religous right want to make this country into. Tom DeLay declared that "one thing that God has brought to us is Terri Schiavo, to help elevate the visibility of what is going on in America." Mr. DeLay, who believes that he's on a mission to bring a "biblical worldview" to American politics, and that God brought him a brain-damaged patient to help him with that mission.
Actually if you look at the poll, most people were against the legislative and executive branchs being involved, they also supported her right to die.
What compelling evidence?Obviously it wasn't that compelling or at least FORTY judges seemed to feel that way. Allegations are not evidence, presumption of innocence, which is in the constittution.
I really don't understand that if you believe that god is all powerful, why he would need people to enforce his will.
Here would be my questionAt what point will you let me die?
Americans polled believe "seperation of church and state" is in the constitution.
I'm very tired of forty judges. You just don't get it. One and only one judge ever looked at the facts. The other 39 never looked at any of the facts and just keep reaffirming that the right to die is constitution. That is not what is being questioned. It is the arrogance of the judicial branch to refuse review.

While building information modeling (BIM) are hot buzzwords for the design and architectural community, this design technology has had little direct impact on concrete construction. But that is about to change.
In the next few months, spurred by the help of the Strategic Development Council (SDC), the RMC Foundation, and the Charles Pankow Foundation, the cast-in-place concrete industry will catch up to its precast brethren in interacting with BIM.
Helping new technology become a part of the concrete industry was why industry leaders formed SDC in 1997. In the last dozen years, council members have identified and discussed key emerging technical issues and challenges that impact the concrete industry. These have included self-consolidating concrete, formwork, and floor dryness.
SDC members look for ways to develop initiatives and identify barriers to technology acceptance. Industry experts once suggested it took innovative products almost 14 years to go from concept to acceptance. SDC is a catalyst to remove those barriers of entry for new technologies and products.
BIM has been in the cross hairs of SDC review the last two years. In 2009, SDC members discussed how to develop a path to adopt BIM. Successful BIM technology transfer is important to many segments of the concrete community. Reinforcing steel fabricators are increasingly being asked to adopt BIM protocol to streamline order and delivery. Many concrete contractors working on large complex projects have been asked to review documents developed in BIM models. Some BIM software even includes crew scheduling and material callouts.
To help achieve this BIM integration, SDC secured $75,000 in grants from the Charles Pankow Foundation and the RMC Research Education Foundation to help create an implementation roadmap. There also is an immediate goal: Help provide an interoperability standard.
Interoperability is "the capability to communicate, execute programs, or transfer data among various functional units in a manner that requires the user to have little or no knowledge of the unique characteristics of those units."
Here, it means architects using one BIM software can send sets of project information to their suppliers and general contractors in a formatted manner so that all can use the same data regardless of which proprietary software they are using to bid, create shop drawings, and monitor change orders.
In many ways SDC's effort is a catch-up activity. While involvement with BIM is often during the construction phase, the benefits of modeling last the life of the structure. Building owners and managers can use the software to plan moves, renovations, and operations. To accommodate this range of interests, the National Institute of Building Sciences has established the buildingSMART alliance.
Alliance members hope to coordinate the changes coming to the fragmented real property industry in North America brought by BIM. The Alliance's 35 participants include the American Institute of Architects, Associated General Contractors of America, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The group's stated goal is to open interoperability and full lifecycle implementation between all building information models.

"I bought these to label my daughter's birthday favors. I have not used them yet, but they are a well made product and I bought the matching invitation. They feel like good quality stickers and look beautiful."
"Excellent quality - make simple presents look more elegant and saves time as no card necessary for all of the nursery school party gifts."
"These are adorable! I stick them on everything my son takes to school. It is so easy to label all his belongings and feel confident that they will all return home:)"

Hundreds of children with disabilities die in Bulgarian state facilities
A recent report revealed that 238 children with mental and intellectual disabilities were killed by neglect.while in the care of government institutions in Bulgaria over the last ten years. This epidemic of death and abuse is evidence of how the kyriarchy devalues of young and disabled lives through ableism and ageism, both in Bulgaria and the rest of the world.
These 238 now-dead child humans suffered horrific abuse and neglect through a terrible variety of instruments. 23 of Bulgaria's 26 state-run homes (currently housing 1,350 children) were implicated. Thousands other certainly suffered abuse untold, but some gruesome reports have been recorded.
134 children were starved.
31 children out of those 134 children died.
17 children were not allowed to move; their caregivers tied to them wheelchairs and beds.
90 children were not allowed to move through chemical restraints and tranquillizing drugs.
81 children died of unspecified neglect.
6 children died of freezing and drowning.
36 children died of pneumonia.
13 children died from poor hygiene.
84 children died of exhaustion.
11 children died because they were taken to the hospital, but too late.
149 children died because they were not taken to the hospital at all.
27 children were raped.
2 children died because of direct physical violence.
15 children died for no immediately apparent reason.
And these are only the recorded cases of abuse, the recorded rapes, the recorded deaths. There are surely many more children dead and wounded by these institutions who were just not noticed.
This inspection was conducted by the Bulgaria Helsinki Commission, a non-governmental human rights watchdog organization. "These children don't die because of their disabilities - they die of things that no one should die of," said Margarita Ilieva, head of BHC's legal department. "What we are aiming at is not retribution. We need prevention."
There's never a whole lot to say about these cases.
My list organization above seems overly grim, but this is the grimmest thing I've read in some time. Bulgaria has targeted people marginalized by age and disability, decimating the children in its care. The individual caretakers, the directors of these institutions, and the government as a whole are responsible for horrible abuse. And they are very far from unique, very far from alone in the international community. My own government is responsible for permitting acts of abuse, rape, violence, and death not unlike what I detail above.
Ableism and ageism are lethal forces enforced by government institutions. I have no theory to back up or expand on that except that hundreds of children are dead because they had disabilities.

Monstrous. I'm speechless.ReplyDelete
Thank you for bringing this horror to our attention. It needs to be known, spread...and hopefully not repeated.ReplyDelete
If you think that is disturbing, then you should be disturbed by the fact that this happens every day in our own country. Disability is not a death sentence, and often with the proper supports and assistance, a person with an intellectual and/or developmental disability can become a vital, active community member for pennies on the dollar to what it costs to keep these people sequestered away in institutions, large group homes, and work facilities.ReplyDelete
In 2009 a University of Wisconsin hospital denied antibiotics to two adults with developmental disabilities for PNEUMONIA, citing that their medical treatment for this entirely treatable infection was "futile" due to the person's supposedly obvious poor quality of life (which also brings up the question/issue- who the hell are you to judge what is/isn't a high quality of life? How do you know what's inside the head of a person with ID/DD? You don't. Plain and simple.) and one of the patients died.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. In your research, did you see anything about any organizations we could join or actions we could take to speak out against these abuses? If not, and you come upon anything like that in the future, I'd be very appreciative if you'd post the info here in the comments section or on your blog. Thanks very much for your time!ReplyDelete
Hi Li! The website for the commission responsible for this report is http://www.bghelsinki.org/index.php?lg=en but it's not working right now (as it wasn't when I posted). I would keep checking there.ReplyDelete
Thanks RMJ! That was really helpful - the website you linked leads us to the site for the investigation into all of Bulgaria's children's homes. If your readers want, they can take action and send an email saying that they support the investigation and/or that they'd like to be kept informed as to the results of the investigation and what is being done to help the children recover.ReplyDelete

There is a lot of debate about the best all-around caliber for a defensive rifle. There are many good choices out here - 30-06, .270, .223, 7.62X39, 7.62X54R, and on and on. Along with many others, these are all good choices. I own some of them myself.
But, my choice for my primary firearm is the.308 Winchester (7.62X51). It has a lot going for it. Normally, it is amply available. Being a semi-current military caliber it is popular around the world. You should be able to find this caliber anywhere that has ammo for sale. You can buy imported low cost ammo for practicing and higher quality ammo for serious work. It functions fine in semi-autos. It is very accurate in most types of firearms. It is easy to reload. There is nothing to dislike about this caliber.
Having said that, I used to lean toward the 30-06. This caliber is the one that EVERYTHING is compared to (...its almost as fast as the 06, its a third again as fast as the 06, its as powerful as the 06, and so it goes). And, most of the virtues of the .308 also apply to the 06. The 06 has been used for years with good results by military snipers. It has a lot going for it.
But, I recently watched a program on the History Channel where Marine snipers were target shooting at 1 mile with their .308 rifles! And, they were hitting their targets! I was impressed! So, even though the .308 doesnt have quite the power of the 06, I believe that it will be sufficient for my needs.

Hi All
I'm a long time 1911/Glock shooter, but I've always had this facination with the Sig 226/229 in 9mm.
In some of the combat schools that I go to, a few of the drills is to fire two shots in 1 second from a draw-from-holster command on a turning target. The problem I think I'll be faced with is "catching the link" for the second (follow up) shot. The 1911s and Glocks reset faster and it hasn't been a problem and maybe so with the Sig (I haven't taken a Sig to a class yet).
Is there a way to shorten the catch in the trigger system with a Sig. Has anyone else experienced this (missing the link between shots) with their Sig?
Maybe it's a moot point, but I was just curious.

How else other then the people that have bought a pre-made Jet pack have found this part of the Fett building one of the most time consuming / frustrating thing to do? When I think I am getting a head of working on it.. I get discouraged, and just want to give up... but I keep on tickin' like a Timex, and continue on with the quest.
So I have seen some really awesome scratched made Packs, and I guess what I would like to know is who has some good pointers on building these things... other then to keep it light in weight..
Looking forward to some good pointers from the pros.

Yes, this thing has an incredible engine in it, some pricy Brembos, and nice wheels, but crap people, who would pour $85K into a $37K car? Sadly, they will have no problem selling it....there are plenty of redneck old men around here that'll write a check for it and then park it in their garage.
