The Division of Behavioral and Social Research had an opportunity to work with the Association for Psychological Science (APS) and the NIH Office of Behavioral and Social Research (OBSSR) to conduct a one-day exploratory meeting on June 4, 2012, devoted to the topic of replicability in the behavioral and social sciences, a topic of interest to all three parties. The purpose of this meeting was to begin a dialog with the extramural research community on what the key issues are for replicability and why well-designed failures to replicate too often go unpublished. Issues of research integrity and replicability in the social and behavioral sciences have been receiving a great deal of recent attention in the field. Two central issues are: (1) Recognizing and correcting false-positive results, specifically, the need for improving techniques used for hypothesis formation and determination of statistical significance that would lessen the likelihood of publishing spurious results; and (2) Strengthening the role of replication in advancing scientific knowledge, specifically how to encourage and value the publication of both successful and failed replications of previous research. Although these and related issues connected to replicability are also being raised in the broader science community, they have become a leading focus of current discussion both within the social and behavioral sciences themselves and among policy makers. This meeting explored strategies that journals, funding agencies, and the scientific community can pursue to address issues related to replicability of behavioral and social research findings. (For more information contact: Dr. Jonathan King, 301-402-4156.)
This exploratory meeting was planned with NAS Board on Behavioral Cognitive and Sensory Sciences. The purpose of this meeting was to bring together select individuals with expertise in behavioral interventions, motivation theory, aging and life course development, and personality psychology to discuss how to apply knowledge and approaches from these fields to successful interventions to increase motivation in aging populations and improve aging outcomes. (For more information please contact:
Dr. Lis Nielsen, BSR, 301-402-4156.)
Purpose: Outreach
The purpose of the forum is to bring together new awardees of grants from DAB In the spring of the year following their award, to encourage their continued success in this field by allowing them to get acquainted with us (NIA program staff) as well as network with each other. The new investigators were asked to make short presentations describing their planned work (or results to date) with an emphasis on how it relates to the area of aging research.
The meeting opened with a keynote address by an eminent aging researcher (Marc Tatar) on the evening of June 19th and the new investigators gave their presentations on June 20-21. The meeting was held in Bethesda, MD.
Contact: Dr. David Finkelstein, DAB, 301/496-6402.
The cutaneous and mucosal surfaces of human body are occupied by complex microbial communities. The Human Microbiome Project, funded by NIH Roadmap since 2008, has generated a rich resource, which includes microbial genome sequences, phylogenetic and functional gene sequence data from the microbiomes of healthy adults and from the microbiomes associated with human diseases of gut, skin and urogenital sites. Although recent advances in our understanding of human microbiomes have provided tremendous insights, a great deal remains to be learned about human microbiomes and aging. This exploratory workshop was called to assess the status of this field and identify new opportunities in this research area. Thirteen invited speakers and NIA staff also discussed various scientific issues in the studies of microbiomes and aging, and potential strategies to address these issues.
The exploratory workshop was held on July 26, 2012 in Bethesda, MD.

Aging is a process involving many epigenetic changes, including DNA methylation, histone modification, gene regulation by microRNAs, and modulation of chromatin states. These epigenetic changes may also play important roles in mediating the impact of environmental factors. A greater understanding of the epigenetic changes during aging may provide new insights for the mechanisms of aging and aging-related diseases. Recent advances in DNA sequencing, new epigenetic approaches, single cell and single-molecule technologies offer an unprecedented opportunity in this field. Many questions remain to be addressed, and the critical obstacles in the field need to be identified and tackled. The Division of Aging Biology (DAB) and the Division of Neuroscience (DN) have held an Advisory Workshop on Epigenetics of Aging on August 1-2, 2012 in Bethesda, MD. The goals of this workshop were to evaluate the status of the field, to define future directions, to evaluate critical needs, and to outline opportunities for the basic research in this area supported by NIA.

An exploratory workshop was held on August 3, 2012 in Bethesda, MD to examine the role of chronic inflammation in the development of fibrotic lesions in various organs with aging and also its role in impaired wound healing in aging. The participants were asked to give a state of the science presentation in their respective areas and to identify key questions for future focus. Impaired chronic wound healing is an enormous problem in the elderly population that is poorly understood. Tissue fibrosis is a major cause of progressive organ failure and is a leading cause of morbidity in older individuals. Fibrotic disorders affect different organ systems including the cardiovascular system, the liver, kidneys and lungs. Fibrosis is an adaptive physiological response to epithelial/endothelial injury and is self limited in normal wound healing. However, the process can become pathological when it becomes a progressive process that impedes normal tissue homeostasis. The mechanisms that link aging and fibrosis are not understood but it is thought that the development of an inflammatory phenotype contributes to the increased occurrence of fibrotic disorders with age. The role of senescent cells in this process is beginning to be appreciated as they are capable of modifying neighboring and remote cells through the production of an altered secretome which may contribute to a chronic inflammatory state and resultant increase in fibrosis.
Contact(s): Drs. Rebecca Fuldner/John Williams, DAB, 301/496-6402.
An advisory workshop on the role of age-related chronic inflammation in aging and chronic disease is scheduled for August 15-16, 2012 in Rockville, Maryland. The purpose of this workshop is to review current state of evidence on the causal role and mechanisms of chronic inflammation in the initiation and progression of chronic disease and functional decline associated with aging; to recommend new interventional studies on treatment or prevention of chronic inflammation, including clinical trials or preliminary and translational studies needed to provide a foundation for future clinical trials; to identify opportunities and analytical techniques for secondary data analyses or biomarker assays pertinent to chronic inflammation in the elderly; and to recommend the optimal organizational structure suitable for the implementation of the recommended studies. A research initiative may be published as a result of this workshop. (Contact: Barbara Radziszewska, Ph.D., DGCG, Ph: 301-435-3046)
Through the auspices of the Trans-NIH Geroscience Interest Group (see above), an advisory workshop was held in September 6-7, 2012 in Rockville, MD.
The elderly comprise the fastest growing segment of our population and aging itself is the largest single risk factor for most chronic diseases. However, the mechanistic bases for age-associated functional deficits are not well understood and the translation of basic research discoveries to clinical applications is lagging. The overarching goal of the Geroscience Interest Group (GSIG) is to identify major cross-cutting areas of research and coordinate approaches to identify hurdles and envision solutions. This workshop brought together a group of research experts to highlight the multiple aspects of inflammation-associated disease processes of aging. It generated vigorous unscripted discussions that helped in the identification of emerging areas of aging biology that crosscut all scientific fields, compelling research questions that aren't being addressed, and activities needed to accelerate research in aging biology and its role as a risk factor for age-related disease. The proceedings of the workshop will be shared with the scientific community at large through the publication of a meeting report and, most notably, they will provide the foundation for the development of trans-NIH initiatives to promote research on basic biology of aging and its relationship to earlier life events, exposures, and diseases.
Contact(s): Drs. Felipe Sierra/Ronald Kohanski, DAB, 301/496-6402.
This exploratory meeting was chaired by Dr. David Reiss, BSR contractor, and Steven Suomi, NICHD. This Network is the first NIA effort to capitalize on recent research on mechanisms that account for the long-term effects of childhood adversity on patterns of healthy and impaired trajectories in aging. (For more information contact Dr. David Reiss or Erica Spotts, 301-402-4156.)
This exploratory meeting will present commissioned analyses on longitudinal data on aging stress and health based on the workgroup's newly developed common conceptual framework for stress measurement. (For more information contact Dr. Lis Nielsen, 301-402-4156.)
The steady-state design of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) calls for a new 6 year birth cohort to be introduced every six years to maintain a nationally representative sample of older Americans. Therefore, the HRS will add the late Baby Boom cohort (1960-1965) in 2016 followed by the 1966-1970 birth cohorts in 2022. NIA seeks insights on the most innovative and cost effective screening techniques from experts. The NAS will gather a panel of experts, including some members of the HRS staff, for a one-day exploratory expert meeting to discuss cost-effective screening approaches for the HRS.

At Relentless Kennels we strive for the classic bully-type American Bulldog that would make Mr. John D. Johnson proud. A Relentless Kennels American Bulldog must look like a BULLDOG and nothing else. We demand that our breeding stock be healthy, strong and athletic with nerves of steel. We strive for a complete working bulldog that LOOKS like a bulldog.
We never breed our bulldogs until they are at least 2 years old. This way we can gauge health, temperament and breed quality. Usually if a problem is going to develop it will be in the first 2 years. By waiting (instead of breeding immature dogs) we are attempting to insure the quality of the Relentless Kennels line.
Check out the superior quality of a Relentless Kennels Bulldog! We breed American Bulldogs and Olde English Bulldogges. Click on the picture for more information.

For about a week now, I have been getting into wiring electronic devices for just expeirimental reasons, and to just see what I can do. So today, I went out to Radioshack, and bought some goodies to get started. I figured I would start simple, and assemble a working micro fan with a switch, and I present my first gadget to possibly go into my near completion Jango Helm.
I plan to move up when I practice re-wire a motor and possibly lead to installig a RC servo for the RF.

Delaware Volleyball Closes Out Season with 3-0 Setback to League-Leading College of Charleston
College of Charleston (23-5, 13-1 Colonial Athletic Association) won by scores of 25-14, 25-18, 28-26 as the Cougars won for the 13th time in the last 14 matches. Charleston will be the top seed when its hosts the six-team CAA Tournament this weekend.
Delaware finished the season with an 11-17 overall record, a seventh place finish in the CAA with a mark of 3-11, and eight straight setbacks. The perennial CAA power Blue Hens, who featured a young lineup that included 11 freshmen and sophomores, suffered their first losing season since 2005.
"We took better care of the ball tonight, but we just didn't terminate," said Delaware head coach Bonnie Kenny. "They are a pretty good hitting team and they terminate at a high level. We just don't have the horses to answer that right now. I was proud that we fought tonight and was happy to see us show some resiliency in the third game. This is unchartered territory for us (not making the CAA Tournament). We have a lot of freshmen who don't quite know yet what it takes to win a championship. It's hard, but hopefully they got seasoned this year."
Sophomore Katie Hillman led the Blue Hens with a team-high 10 kills and seven digs while senior Katie Hank (at right), playing in her final match for the Blue Hens along with Kori Reigel, contributed eight kills and three digs. Kali Funk added 22 assists, Mackenzie Olsen had 10 assists, and Reigel contributed six digs.
Hank and Reigel were honored in a pre-game Senior Night ceremony. The two led the Blue Hens to a four-year record of 74-50, including CAA Tournament titles and NCAA Tournament appearances in 2010 and 2011 and a CAA Tournament runner-up finish in 2012.
Darcy Dorton led Charleston Saturday night with a game-high 17 kills to go with 10 digs while Melissa Morello added 12 kills and nine digs. Kallie McKown added 25 assists and Andi Zbojniewicz contributed 12 digs.
Charleston jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first set and won going away by a 25-14 score. In the second set, Delaware tied the score at 11-11 but the Cougars scored four straight points to take control and win 25-18. The decisive third set featured 14 ties and Delaware had set point at 26-25 before Charleston earned the 28-26 win on an attack error and match-clinching kill by Dorton.

Professor's Prologue by Dr. Michael Illuzzi, Assistant Professor of Political Science
Tuesday, February 12, 2013
In the same speech, Roosevelt labeled what he called "faddists and doctrinaires" as "mollycoddles"— overprotected and pampered ideologues not ready to seriously engage with the work of self-government. Today, many Republicans have signed Grover Norquist's no tax pledge and many Democrats have avowed to make no cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Given our current political environment, it is worth asking whether our leaders have become the mollycoddles Roosevelt feared more than one hundred years ago.
Erskine Bowles is a politician cast in the same mold as Roosevelt. Mr. Bowles brings us two hard truths: first, there are many common sense strategies that could bring the U.S. debt problem under control; second, to do so requires that both sides make political concessions that will be unpopular with their core constituencies.
Mr. Bowles' career has exemplified the virtue of trading ideological thinking for hard-nosed compromise. He is a prominent Democrat born and raised in the traditionally Republican state of North Carolina and he has proven himself a "doer," moving seamlessly between the public and private spheres. Earning his undergraduate degree from North Carolina and an M.B.A. from Columbia University's Graduate School of Business, he went into finance working for Morgan Stanley and then founded several middle-market private equity firms in North Carolina. Mr. Bowles used this experience to expand economic development in rural North Carolina. In 1993, President Clinton first appointed Mr. Bowles as the director of the Small Business Administration, and later the White House Chief of Staff where he helped negotiate the budget agreement in 1997 that produced the first balanced budget in a generation. In 2004, he was appointed the U.N. Deputy Special Envoy for Tsunami Recovery in Southeast Asia. Following this appointment he served as president of the University of North Carolina system from 2006-2010.
Recently, Mr. Bowles served as co-chair of the bi-partisan National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, better known as the Simpson-Bowles Commission, with Senator Alan Simpson. The Commission issued its findings in December 2010. Having been tasked by President Obama to address our nation's fiscal challenges and recommend ways to reduce the deficit and balance the federal budget, the Commission produced perhaps the most highly publicized and praised budget proposal ever to fail to come to a vote. According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, one of the nation's premier policy organizations, the Simpson-Bowles plan includes $2.9 trillion in spending cuts and $2.6 trillion in tax increases, it taxes capital gains and dividends as normal income, it reduces deductions for charitable contributions and mortgage interest, it gradually phases out the employer-provided health care deduction, it increases the taxable minimum on income to 90 percent for Social Security and slows the cost of living adjustments and raises the retirement age for the program. Simpson-Bowles dared to bring up facts that both sides have continued to bury, and the plan recently has reemerged in public debate over how to avert the fiscal cliff.
If we want to avoid becoming "mollycoddles" or aiding their pursuits, we must face uncomfortable facts and increase the level of bipartisan discourse. It is time to follow the advice of Roosevelt and start ignoring the "faddists and doctrinaires" who make for good headlines and sound bites and to instead pay greater attention to those who "[s]tand stoutly for [their] ideals, but keep in mind that they can only be realized, even partially, by practical methods of achievement."
Erskine Bowles will address the Lesley University Boston Speakers Series on Wednesday, February 20, at 8 p.m. at Boston Symphony Hall. To see the full schedule of speakers for the Boston Speakers Series, click here.

If you have dismissed Microsoft as a cloud platform player up to now, you might want to rethink that notion. With the latest release of Windows Azure here at Build, Microsoft's premier developer shindig, this cloud service has become a serious contender for the top spot in cloud platforms. And all the old excuses that may have kept you away are quickly being eliminated.
In typical Microsoft fashion, the Redmond, Washington giant is attacking the cloud platform market with a competitive furor that can only be described as faster follower. In 2008, Microsoft quickly saw the disruptive change that Amazon Web Services (AWS) represented and accelerated its own lab project centered around delivering Windows as a cloud platform. Version 1.0 of Azure was decidedly different and immature and thus struggled to establish its place in the market. But with each iteration, Microsoft has expanded Azure's applicability, appeal, and maturity. And the pace of change for Windows Azure has accelerated dramatically under the new leadership of Satya Nadella. He came over from the consumer Internet services side of Microsoft, where new features and capabilities are normally released every two weeks — not every two years, as had been the norm in the server and tools business prior to his arrival.

Well if you're going to make a dramatic about face from total dismissal of cloud computing, this is a relatively credible way to do it. Following up on its announcement of a serious cloud future at Oracle Open World 2011, the company delivered new cloud services with some credibility at this last week's show. It's a strategy with laser focus on selling to Oracle's own installed base and all guns aimed at Salesforce.com. While the promise from last year was a homegrown cloud strategy, most of this year's execution has been bought. The strategy is essentially to deliver enterprise-class applications and middleware any way you want it - on-premise, hosted and managed or true cloud. A quick look at where they are and how they got here:

the first thing you think of when you kill many innocent beings is what will my karma be? hahahaha no wonder society thinks your a good person.
i dont care what anyone says to me about this. societies ethics. thats an oxymoron. you mean the people who cant decide wether or not its negative to
kill a fetus, or kill someone in a coma because they dont pay taxes, the people who think your a saint because you gave a bum a ticket to the red sox. dont give me that there is no person. yes in conventional reality there is good and bad. so in ultamite reality there are no people. but in conventional reality there is good and bad. including people. if society calls you a good person take that as in insult. society doesnt give a shit, they daydream all day, and your considered spiritual if you took a reiki class, and your religious if you go to church every other month. let alone if you told them your weaning off music, stopped drinking, celibate, and beat yourself up for about 30 minutes so you make sure you dont grumble a mean word under your breath again.

Munger-Wilson Memorial Chapel
During the past 75-plus years many people have passed through the doors of the beautiful Munger-Wilson Memorial Chapel.
Few could say it left no mark on their lives. There have been many outstanding speakers, uplifting music—both vocal and instrumental and there has been an intangible — the aura of the chapel itself.
The chapel is the spiritual hub of the Ozarks campus, and still hosts Wednesday morning worship service on a weekly basis while school is in session. It is also a popular venue for weddings -- many marriages have been performed in this chapel since its dedication.

Dr. Joseph McFadden, University of St. Thomas president emeritus and professor of history, was awarded the Center for Thomistic Studies' Aquinas Medal on Jan. 24 at the Aquinas Lecture featuring the Rev. Kevin Flannery, S.J. The award honors scholars nationally and abroad and recognizes people who testify to, as "Fides et Ratio" says, "the incomparable value of the philosophy of St. Thomas" in their writings, teaching philanthropy or way of life. Recipients become a part of the Order of St. Thomas, which includes Avery Cardinal Dulles†, Archbishop J. Michael Miller, CSB, George Strake, Jr., Michele Malloy and Dr. Peter Kreeft.
McFadden was honored for his contributions and decisive leadership as the first lay president of UST, his work as executive director of the International Council of Universities of St. Thomas Aquinas and "his efforts toward building Catholic identity at institutions across the world through the model of St. Thomas Aquinas as teacher and scholar," said Dr. Mary Catherine Sommers, director of the Center for Thomistic Studies.
McFadden Reflects on Aquinas, Education
Receiving the St. Thomas Aquinas Medal from my colleagues at the Center touched me deeply and humbly. Why, well because I have cherished dearly the University of St. Thomas Community and the support that everyone has given me in my 25 years of being a part of that Community. I have come to believe that Thomas Aquinas is just as relevant today as when he taught and preached in his time. He has much to say about teaching and learning to inspire us all.
To begin, he said that education and being educated was a special gift from God to man. For it was through the educational process that a person begins to recognize their potential. Aquinas believed that a teacher had a very special role to play in this process – not THE role, but a special role.
Ideally, a teacher is dedicated to searching for truth. A teacher forms a willing partnership with their students in this search, for it is the teacher who organizes the student learning experience and provides keen insights for their students. The work of a teacher in this partnership is: to encourage student reflection, to stimulate the integration of knowledge, to inculcate intellectual habits, to assist students in discerning the truth and to help build their personal character. Both student and teacher must play an active role. But the teacher must be ever mindful that it is the student who has the primary responsibility for learning – not the teacher.
For Thomas Aquinas, a truly liberally educated person, was a person whose personality was characterized by a harmonious union of a scientist, a philosopher, an artist and a saint – a tall challenge indeed. Yes, but it is a challenge that the UST community has consciously undertaken – it has become a part of its very character.
It has been wonderful for me to be a part of the UST community as we together try to live up to the challenge presented by Thomas Aquinas – our patron Saint. He has much to tell us about our role as teachers and students.

Adam Lambert
Although Lambert didn't win the Idol competition, he received far more attention than his castmates during the following months, during which he appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone in June ("I don't think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I'm gay," he stated in the accompanying article, thus putting an end to the public's speculation) and elicited standing ovations during the summer-long American Idol tour. He also signed with RCA and began recording his debut album, working alongside producer Rob Cavallo while soliciting material from the likes of Lady Gaga, Linda Perry, Justin Hawkins, and RedOne.
One month before For Your Entertainment's release, Lambert unveiled his first single, a track from the 2012 soundtrack titled "Time for Miracles." His debut album followed in late November (arriving one week after the release of Kris Allen's own debut) and sold close to 200,000 copies during its first week, outdoing new releases by Rihanna and Lady Gaga in the process. Meanwhile, a risqué performance at the American Music Awards -- during which Lambert kissed his male keyboardist and danced suggestively with both sexes -- helped gather additional headlines, not to mention a fair amount of controversy.
Lambert's five-song EP Acoustic Live!, featuring stripped-down versions of songs from For Your Entertainment as well as the Tears for Fears cover "Mad World," was released in December of 2010. The following year, Lambert delivered the concert album/DVD Glam Nation Live, featuring performances recorded during the Indianapolis, Indiana stop of his 2010 Glam Nation tour. Lambert's full-length sophomore effort, Trespassing, was released in 2012, with the album featuring a bevy of big-name collaborators including Bruno Mars, Nikka Costa, Sam Sparro, and Pharrell Williams. It hit number one but sold fewer copies than For Your Entertainment, and Lambert announced in 2013 that he was leaving RCA. He returned several times to American Idol, however, and also announced in 2014 that he would tour with Queen, where he would front the band in place of the late Freddie Mercury. In 2015, Lambert returned as the first former contestant to appear as a judge on American Idol. His next studio release would be The Original High -- his first on Warner Bros. following his departure from RCA -- on which he had worked with Swedish songwriter/producers Max Martin and Shellback. The album appeared in June of 2015. ~ Andrew Leahey

Green Bay to Play at Bradley in CollegeInsider.com Tournament
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Head coach Brian Wardle and the Green Bay men's basketball team have accepted an invitation to play in the 2013 CollegeInsider.com Tournament (CIT), marking the program's first appearance in this postseason tournament. Green Bay (18-15) will open the tournament at Bradley (16-16) on Wednesday, March 20 at 7 p.m.
"We are excited about the opportunity to continue our season in a postseason tournament," said Wardle. "We appreciate the invitation from College Insider and are looking forward to playing Bradley, a well-coached, quality opponent from a strong conference. We are working hard to get our program to contend in the Horizon League and play in the postseason consistently."
Bradley is a member of the Missouri Valley Conference and posted a 7-11 record in conference play this season. The Braves and the Phoenix played three common opponents, with Bradley posting a 1-2 record in three meetings with Drake, sweeping its season series with Southern Illinois and beating UIC 63-62 in a BracketBuster contest in Chicago.
The Braves, led by second-year head coach Geno Ford, have three double-digit scorers. Chicago native Walt Lemon, Jr. leads Bradley in scoring at 15.4 points per game. The Phoenix is also led in scoring by a Chicago native, Keifer Sykes. After matching his career high with 31 points in Saturday's 70-69 loss at Valparaiso, Sykes is averaging 15.8 points per game.
The Phoenix has won six of its last nine games and recently advanced to the semifinals of the Horizon League Championship. Green Bay posted wins over Milwaukee (62-46) and UIC (64-63) before falling to top-seeded and eventual champion Valparaiso 70-69 on a desperation three-pointer at the buzzer.
Green Bay last appeared in a postseason tournament in the 2009-10 season, when it played in the College Basketball Invitational (CBI). The Phoenix defeated Akron in the opening round before losing in the second round at Saint Louis.
Tickets for the CIT opener at $22 between the baselines and $20 in the endzones. Tickets are available for purchase in person at the Renaissance Coliseum Box Office, all TicketMaster outlets, by phone at 309.677.2625 or online at BradleyBraves.com.

Rubber? Might work, so count me interested depending on price... I have the face, but if you can do it I wont have to make my own.
Rubber? Might work, so count me interested depending on price... I have the face, but if you can do it I wont have to make my own.
Right now i have his head cast. Im working with alumilite to get a 5 gallon pail of their P2 resin.
Its in a barrell in the top back and they are reluctant to open it up for me, at least atm.
Im still looking at the best way to do this. and im still thinking rubber is the way to go. My only concern is going to be the hands. everything else is no big deal.
I do agree though theres going to be 200 in just rubber to pull one.
I really do think its doable though. I did the head pull mainly to make sure the platinum silicone would cure against the firberglass and paint.
Realistically your looking at 300-500 bucks shipped for one of these full castings.
Hands and face 150 ish. Upper torso probably 200-350.
Its my next project after the webley, which had to be done now as opposed to later. Which is well underway.
Ill pull a face in rubber this week and post some pics.
On a side note, if you take a rubber casting, vac pull the boxes for the sides, and put this all on the pink insulation styrofoam you could make a HAC that weighed about 25 lbs to carry in parades, 4 stormtroopers carrying it = no problem
One thing though, i never take a penny or make a list until im ready to deliver. That may be the only redeeming quality i have
Well, I'm new to the forum. After deciding that I wanted to make my own HIC and searching around the internet, I came upon the build by azheat and was astonished at what can be done in your own house. I was planning on utilizing a similar setup, but I am intrigued by how this project of yours may come out.
Having a full accurate frontal might be a good option. And I take it rolling it for shipping wouldn't damage it while in transit?
Sorry if that is a noob question.
I would be really interested in a full front HIC
This was moved here. It is very old. But I am doing a run now, should be the cleanest most acurate to date. Details in the cargo hold.
Hi I posted awhile back when you were gauging interest and was away for awhile and missed that you started making them. I still cant post in the CH but I wanted to let you know I'm very interested in a full frontal cast. I'm not ready to buy immediately but absolutely will be in the next few weeks. I've wanted one of these for awhile to go next to my Boba mannequin. Thanks for offering these, they look fantastic!
Very Interested! Please Pm Me!
I'm pretty new to the site and can't post in the Cargo Hold yet. From what I gather, you are done making HIC molds right now? I'm wondering if there is a time frame when you might start making them again? And is it just easiest to keep checking the forums? Thanks in advance. I'm wanting the HIC pieces. Can pay ASAP.
I am VERY interested in a set of the side panels when you get ready to do the run. For everyone else, I received Stormrider's rubber full frontal HIC about two months ago and his work is unbelievable!!! I have been extremely pleased with how he handles the communication. I do agree with a previous poster that there is a market for the side panels. I have seen some pretty crummy ones being offered at a huge cost. The wonderful result of supply and demand I guess... Have a Happy and Safe Holiday Season Everyone!!!!!
I got the funds, looking for a front panel. Any help would be awesome!
I also am looking to purchase the frontal casting for a HIC build.
I am looking for a front panel HIC. Able to pay now.

Really nice work.

Hi everyone.
I am looking to take an intensive 1-month CELTA course here in the UK over the summer with a view to applying for jobs in the foreign classroom soon after. However my financial situation is uncertain and I may not complete my CELTA untill perhaps the end of summer.
Am I right in assuming that an academic year beginning in September is the norm the world over? More importantly, could anyone offer some obervations on my chances of securing a job outside of the pre-September hiring period? I am flexible (and eager to get away, frankly) but I am also willing to wait until the end of the year, with a view to picking something up to start in January perhaps?
I am hoping to get work somewhere in South-East or North-East Asia but this is just a preference.
Thanks for any help

New York City -- Saks said Tuesday it will open a licensed Saks Fifth Avenue store in Almaty, Kazakhstan, in August 2012.

dose anyone have uscm armor Patterns
dose anyone have uscm armor Patterns
If by patterns you mean paint and color schemes, then check out this thread:
I think he means the armor that was used in the movie Aliens. If so, I have not seen anything like that here. I would suggest google.
Ohh I thought he meant US marine designs for a custom Mando. I just figured it was a typo and he meant to say "USMC".
digital Desert
Crye Multi-cam
digital woodland
I can get all these uniforms and tactical vests
if you specify the type and make I can get you a very cheap price
I've never seen any patterns to make the armor yourself. But ou might want to check over at The Aliens Legacy.
The kind used in the aliens movie was called Safarilage. It's no longer produced by all accounts but theres a forum you can join where they produce copies. I've just bought a set of the pants on eBay for $25. Can't seem to find the shirt though

text: Hey guys, for the past couple weeks I've been thinking of making a master mold for a rocket pack, my thing tho is that if I make one I want to make it as accurate as possible. I'm not sure how many people would be interested because this wouldn't be a symetrical pack it'd have all the croockedness of the AoSW pack. I'd deffinetly want as much constructive critisism as possible when starting it. However it wont be started on for atleast a month.

Samsung Galaxy Player official site
Could not have gotten a better media player with plenty of room for music and family clips.
These really are great mp3/video players. I bought one a year ago and have been very pleased with it.
Don't think that you can use it for anything else, though. The fact that it has wifi and Gingerbread seems appealing but I soon noticed that the processor, GPU, and RAM were incapable of a smooth gaming experience. I've also had lots of problems with connectivity; when it first arrived, it connected to the internet quickly and easily, but it has gotten steadily worse, and now I can't get a connection even if I'm right next to the router.
Despite all of the problems I've had with it, it has been an excellent music and video player.
I own the 4.2". Love it for music, video, and Angry Birds.

accuteknj wrote:They are not intended for video games, as main purpose is for music and videos
I believe these can run mobile versions of Ubuntu (Linux) after reading some of the Ubuntu forums.
It may take some tweaking but you can basically dock these to access a full OS when not in mobile mode. Kind of a cool pocket PC if you do that especially considering the price.
EDIT: I've never done this but a coworker has-- please don't PM asking me how!
I have the 5" model. It's quite large. Other than that, it's a great device for everyday, non-gaming, use. I have no trouble connecting to any wifi. I can make calls from it and send texts when on a good open wifi. The radio is the best feature for me, I get to listen to morning classics while at work without bothering others. Download the Citrix client app and I can connect to work if needed. And best of all...it's NOT APPLE!
I WAS about to pull the trigger on the 5" player but then started to research the price for reburbs and its basically the same price everywhere.

Price Update
Happy Friday! You may have noticed the we lowered the price on the 4.2" and 5" players.
Now go buy some before we change our mind, please.
Already purchased? No worries. Money will come flying back to you shortly.
CM10.1 is working on rooted 5.0's
These things are awesome. This day and age you can get wireless pretty much anywhere, and I've been able to put off buying a smartphone/data package for quite some time. Got the 5.0 about a year and a half ago at full retail, and still absolutely love it. I -am- starting to have issues with the battery though, so it may be time to make the smart-jump soon...
When people say these are not good for "gaming", does that mean full blown Call of Duty, or does that mean Angry Birds and Subway Surfer? I'm thinking of these for 6-8 year old kids in the car.
tadef wrote:When people say these are not good for "gaming", does that mean full blown Call of Duty, or does that mean Angry Birds and Subway Surfer? I'm thinking of these for 6-8 year old kids in the car.
This will run any sort of basic game (Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, etc.) without any problems. I've hit some serious slowdown on some stuff like Dead Space and kinda learned my limits, but the basics are a breeze for this device. Another big thing, no problems with Netflix, which is huge for me. If Samsung would release an OS update I'd almost buy another.
What is the difference between these 4 models other than the size?
I have the 4 inch one.
I really enjoy it.
It's basically a phone without the phone part.
It has camera, microphone, good speaker.
with CSipSimple and a future-nine account, i can use it as a phone.
Skype works too.
Good alternative to an ipod.
only drawback is the older android version.
some people have put android 4 on it though.
I actually met Carl Sagan, and in response to a question I had about his classic tagline, he said "no I would have never said 'billions *and* billions' - that's simply too imprecise..."
dbehera2000 wrote:What is the difference between these 4 models other than the size?
There is a difference that could be a big deal for those without smartphones. The 3.6 and 4.2 models ONLY have a special Bluetooth feature and app that will let you mate to a dumb phone (as long as it has Bluetooth) and answer calls on the player as though it is a handset. Unfortunately this feature or app doesn't have a dialer so to use the player to dial out you have to have the number in your contacts list. Using the contacts list, you can call out as well as receive calls. This only allows you voice access for calls, so you can't use the phone minutes to surf, for that or VoIP calls you need wifi access.
The reviews say that the 4.2 has a better display than the 3.6. The 4.0 and 5.0 have Bluetooth but cannot mate with a dumb phone in the same way the others can. I have a 5.0 and I went head and tried it to no avail. :-( my 5.0 has stopped charging and having it repaired would cost at least $50 locally so I'll probably get a 4.6. Until the charging issue, I was very happy with the player.
FYI, pinger is beta testing a VoIP app for android tablets that worked very well with my player when I had a strong wifi signal. http://pinger.zendesk.com/entries/22202707-Try-Pinger-on-your-Android-tablet-
As far as the non-phone elements are concerned, I loved having a fm radio I could listen to at work. On the 5.0, the video and audio are very good and you have your choice of both google play store and the Amazon App Store. My Internet research suggests a problem with the connector needing re soldered. I mention this because since these are refurbished, I feel it is likely that the connections on these have been checked.
If I make MP4 video files with Hand Break will they run ok on one of these? I was thinking of the 5" for the Gym and they don't have WiFi there.
Also is the camera any good for photos? Is it only Facebook quality or are they good enough to print with?
Thank you
I've been using a 5" refurb version for about four months as an IP phone. It is doable, but there are some limitations.
I've found that the no-cost option of using Google Voice and GrooveIP is unreliable, as call quality can be sketchy and I often get lags after speaking for some time. Quality is much better using Google Voice and a Skype number.
Additionally, I have been unable to make calls with just the player, as the mic does not pick up my voice. I use a bud/headset for that. FM radio only works if you use a headset, as well.
Also note that these devices have a lot less RAM than Samsung Galaxy S phones. The device slows with too many apps open, and I am regularly killing processes and freeing up RAM via task manager. Not a huge deal, but something you should be aware of.
That stated, multimedia (Hulu+, Netflix, Youtube) is stellar and smooth. Brilliant picture with no stuttering.
Overall, this is an awesome device. Much better than the cheap 7" tablets in the market today. The best IP phone solution available, period.

It should play the mp4s, even if the built player doesn't play something there are plenty of other players on google play
I have the 5" one. The camera is pretty terrible. I wouldn't even put photos from it on Facebook. Image stabilization only runs as quickly as the memory allows, which isn't very quickly. The resolution I got always seemed really grainy and the light sensitivity wasn't very good either. My Tracphone has a better camera installed -- you can't even use this one to read barcode labels.
Like folks are saying, it's a great little device, but it really is only for music and movies and maybe has some limited utility running certain apps. I use it mostly to walk to work with and log music through Last.fm. Light internet browsing it can take -- think checking the New York Times at work, maybe a bit of browser-Facebook. Anything more than that and I've found the thing tends to crap out and freeze up or lag. More than three internet tabs is a no-no. I had to uninstall the Facebook app because the demands on the processor were a bit too much for my tastes.
The memory is expandable, though -- it can take up to a 32-gig memory card, if I remember correctly, so it definitely serves if you're just looking for a thing to port your library onto that isn't an iPod. And it's a solid little device. I've dropped mine at least five times and apart from some scuffs it's been totally fine. The five-inch one fits in your pockets just fine if you wear guy-sized pants and can also be used as an ereader if you download the Kindle app or similar offerings. It serves very well as an alarm clock, flashlight, door prop, etc. And the battery life hasn't been disappointing at all -- the thing stays charged all day pretty well even with wifi enabled. I did have to send it back for repairs once, but Samsung was reasonably fast about it and it was under warranty.
All in all, I'm pretty happy with mine. I bought it as a smartphone replacement for just about twice the price it's going for here and I feel like I've gotten my money's worth out of it.
Last year I ditched the bulk of my awesome Asus tf300 for a 5" Galaxy. Love the size and battery life. Great for checking email at the coffee shop or watching movies on long flights.
5" has an externally accessible microSD slot. Specs claim 32gb compatibility but I run SanDisk 64gb MicroSD's loaded with music and movies (Ripped with Handbreak). like the MX Player app for movies and PlayerPro for music.
Now have a smarty phone s3 but still use the Player a lot to stream Pandora and radio stations to our home stereo system via blue tooth.
GPS is great too. In other countries I would download the area from Google maps and mark my destinations while I still had wifi. When the cabbie didn't know English I could show him where I wanted to go. It also kept them from ripping me off because they knew I could see if they were going the long way.
My son has one and it handles those kinds of games pretty well. He even plays minecraft on it. (He has the 4.2 inch)
This is a pretty sweet deal, if I didn't buy my itouch Gen 5 before this deal came across, I would've made sure to buy the biggest memory and up to date samsung player right here..
Ah well. These babies may not have the current specs you're looking for and runs with Gingerbread but I have been very interested in the browser function on this unit.
Which of these have GPS capabilities?. I'm looking for something to use a bike computer.
Biggest problem with this: the Virgin Mobile Kyocera Rise.
Similar specs, much better OS (4.0), cheaper ($75) and..you can just buy it and never activate it and have this same thing.
Everyone is complaining this has crappy specs... I still use my Samsung Captivate which has the exact same specs but is a phone.
Not upgradeable - lots of problems, from the above linked reviews-
" Pros: decent sound;
5" screen feels like MORE than an inch of improvement over 4" screen (or smaller on iPods);
Stand alone GPS navigation with right app
expandable with micro sd slot (though I have a bunch of apps and maps and have never needed it, but I suppose if you want to carry full movies around with you....)
Cons: can't go above Android 2.3 Gingerbread;
WARRANTY WILL NOT WORK IF YOU HAVE "CW" in the model number (see review)
A general note about Samsung manufacturer's warranty from an experience I just had earlier today. Be aware.
My Samsung Galaxy Player is 11 months old and after calling them about the (sealed, soldered-in) battery life going down to an unacceptable level, they said that if I sent it to their ONE AND ONLY point of repair in Texas ... it would receive a new battery. When I gave the customer service rep my model and serial numbers she commented that the numbers made it seem like it was not made-for-USA-market. But that device worldwide was built the same, so no matter.
Today I received the device back with a note that said nothing had been done to it because "Device worked." And then "Technician Advice: Return device to country it was manufactured for to receive repairs."
After 2 hours on the phone with Samsung, they told me that the Texas plant cannot repair anything not made for the US market, but they would try to figure out what country it was made for and get me the phone number for that repair plant--it seems like maybe it was meant for Mexico.
Pfft! My Square Trade extended warranty kicks in next month, or I'd be without recourse. My Player's model number is YP G70-CW*** --it's the CW that turns out to be non-American market. I only knew about the YP-G70 when I made the purchase, but even I had read the full model and called Samsung with it, they don't always know what country it was meant to be sold in...no red flag went up when I registered the device, just when I tried to use the warranty.
I love the device itself, but that battery just isn't holding up 11 months in, and you will void the warranty if you try to remove and solder in another (available at samsungparts dot com for "51 dollars, allow 4-6 weeks for delivery"). Square Trade is going to take care of this, but they shouldn't have to--Samsung has found a new way to screw people out of their warranties, knowing full well when people register that they have been slipped a foreign market device.

I am mostly interested in one of these as a music player connected to a stereo in the bedroom. From the favorable comments I assume the sound quality is good, but I have questions on three points.
Does this have a useful "random play" function so I can just leave it playing songs at random from whatever is loaded on it? And does the function access the whole library when memory is increased using a microSD card?
Does it have a useful playlist function? And can the playlist draw from both basic memory and added microSD memory on the same list?
Can it be left plugged into the charger while listening to music through the headphones, so that battery life is not an issue?
Thanks much for any help.

After seeing the offerings here I did exactly the same thing you did: "converted" my Samsung Galaxy phone to a dedicated MP3 player. As a phone there's no resale market for these (I upgraded to the Note so didn't need the Galaxy any more). Also, I'm using another retired Galaxy phone as a remote control for my electronic equipment at home. Amazing.

Former Prime Minister Tony Blair was not only enamored of his beloved American friend, George Bush, but he also actually believed the American FBI knew how to deal with drug problems. Blair created an FBI style the Serious Organized Crime AGency(SOCR) to crush the influx of drugs into Great Britain. Last year approximately 3 tons of drugs were seized compared to over 9 tons in 2004-2005. SOCR has proved to be as much a fiasco as Blair's policy in supporting the war in Iraq. Drugs are flooding the nation resulting in a dramatic drop in the price of heroin from $140 a gram ten years ago to $90 a gram in 2007. Ironically, the overall drug use in England has probably dropped due to a decrease by young people in using cannabis. Drug experts point out today one can walk the streets of London and get your pick of the drug of your desire. In sections of north London like Camden Town, drug sellers merely wait until the police walk by and then return to openly selling their wares. Most police believe the switch from a local police effort to a centralized national approach has proved to be disastrous.
This writer opposes all drug laws and argues for the government to establish a monopoly on drugs. A combination of controlling all drug use under proper medical supervision and extensive educational programs concerning the harmful effects of drugs will do more to reduce drug use than the current system which only results in crime and enormous financial power given drug lords. America has over 600,000 drug users in jail where they receive an education in becoming a criminal and costs society about $35,000 a year for their imprisonment. Rehabilitation should be the focus of drug programs since drugs cause incredible damage to the physical and mental lives of humans. Drug users need to be medically supervised and provided psychological and counseling assistance as well as access to meaningful work if we desire to win the war against drugs. I hate drugs but also recognize the current approach has only resulted in devastating societies all over the world by giving enormous financial power to sick and violent drug lords.

Discussion in 'March 2014' started by roscoe36, Oct 21, 2013.
Clueless management probably ordered that wording. Another case of no effort.
Well, first of all, I do not work today. Something to do with the blizzard outside my window I suppose. Oh, the game. Did we play one? Don't you have to have an opponent for that? Does Sactown count these days. Hardly. Sactown played as organized as an, wait, can't really think of anything that would not be insulted by the comparison. Forget it. Lets just say they do not quite know the concept of playing as a team. As much as anything, a pair of threes, one by Smith, and then one by Jennings, won this one. Sure, Sactown also cooperated by hardly scoring in the 2nd half, but its not like the Pistons were doing much in an organized manner on their end. Ok, lets look at how Singelr did. Plus 4 in 40 minutes of play, against an extremely bad team. How bad? Our bench, when Singler did not play, was a horrid group, as usual, but still managed to be plus 6 in their 8 minutes of play. In other words, if we had played our worst players not named Singler, we would have put this one away shortly after the first quarter. But with Singler, it was a struggle. Something to do with him not being able to guard anybody. He did have a two triple game though, so I suppose it will be another five years before anyone on the Pistons coaching staff notices he can't defend anyone. Smith had a fine game shooting the ball, and Stuckey got inside a lot. Way too easily as Sactown's defense was as unorganized as their offense. Decent free throw shooting also helped the cause. I watched the interviews after. Crazy how our guys actually look at this game as any kind of measure for the team. They are dreaming if they think this type of play will beat any but the hardest tanking teams in the league.
Very close!
The Pistons managed to keep bobbing in the Danger Zone. On the plus side, Drummond is 16/24 on FTs (67%) in his last 9 games (he was 0-8 ten games ago), and 73% (11/15) his last five. Hooray for cherry-picked small sample sizes!
Finally! Thank you sir. You are a gentleman and a scholar.
I thank you for your comment, but I assure you, sir, that I am no gentleman.

What is Pedialite?
Sounds like she definitely ate something that didn't agree with her, hopefully it has been digested and all will be good, it really pays to watch your dog in situations like yours, you just never know what they can reach and some people have no idea about what to feed and what not to feed a dog.
So after looking up what to look for when a chicken bone is ingested. We decided that we were gonna wait and see if things change over night as we didn't feel like she was in pain. At about 3pm still wouldn't eat so I decided to give her Pedialite with her water. Between 5-6 she started eating again went to the bathroom (smelled horrible).
She ended up eating and using the bathroom twice last, and was being more herself, and hasn't changed since Today she's doing great running, jumping, eating, etc..
So as of right now it looks as if we're in the clear, but I'll keep a close eye for the next day or so and continue to check stools for any signs.
Thanks for the help guys.

Definitely go to the vet right away! A agree that I would be very concerned about the chicken bone. Vomiting and not being their usual selves are reasons to take my babies to the vet.... Better safe than sorry. Keep us updated!

If you caught her with a cooked chicken bone, you don't know if she got to any of the other food - to me it sounds like she did and ate something that is giving her problems now.
Agree, with Lilie call your vet and describe the symptoms, they will probably advise you to come in and because she is so young that may not be a bad idea. Best to be cautious than not.
Good luck and I hope her tummy pains settle down soon
I'd be worried about the cooked chicken bone. I'd call my vet and tell them exactly what you told us and they'll tell you what to watch for or if they think the pup needs to be seen.
Cooked chicken bones splinter. Splintered bones can cause major damage internally.
Stomach Ache?
Took my puppy to my parents super bowl party last night to socialize her with people. It's the most people she's dealt with at one time. She seemed to do great till the very end she woke up from a nap crying took her outside to use the bathroom she went but continued crying for a few minutes. The crying stopped be she just looked drained. I felt like something wasn't right but was hoping it was just exhaustion. We brought her home and went to bed. Woke up this morning and she was her old self again running around attacking my ankles and all that fun stuff. Then I noticed she threw up in her crate in 3 different spots while we were sleeping. I clean it up and notice my little girl isn't active anymore. After an hour passes and she's still laying down looking like she has no energy I know this isn't my puppy. Couple hours later she's up running around again like she's okay, and now she's back to the all I wanna do is lay here state.
Things to note:
My parents own 3 dogs, but she's been there before at least 5-6 other times, and they don't leave the house so I'm not thinking it's diseased related.
she probably had way too many carrots last night from people wanting to play with her and what not.
I found her with a chicken wing bone. I got to her before she completely finished it but I'm sure she got some in. It went down fine no choking or coughing of any sort (I hear problems with cooked chicken bone is ingesting it but not so much digesting)
Lastly today she drinks water but has no interest in food. She's pooped once from what I've seen and it was firm. Hasn't thrown up at all.
I know I should have kept a closer on her at the party but she was looking perfectly fine up until those last 30 min of an 11 hour day. So I thought nothing of it sadly.
So could this just be a simple stomach ache? Maybe stress related? Idk I've looked up bloat doesn't seem to have any systems, but with this no eating thing how long until it becomes an issue? I don't want to prematurely take her into the vet, I know when I have stomach ache last thing I want is food. So idk if it's normal or not. Any tips or suggestions?

hello lucy,
i am in bloivia at the moment and have just been to the local social services office to see if there is any volunteer work i could do.
well, they need english teachers for children who have been abandoned so they can eventually get work as guides etc.
my problem is that i have very little time 2/3 weeks. do you have any suggestions as to what would be the most productive use of this time and is there anything i can put in place so the students can continue to learn after i have gone?
the students have little or no english and range in age from 5 to 15. i am not sure yet if the classes will be a mixture of all age groups or if they will be divided up according to age.
i have a T.E.F.L. cert from about 4 years ago and have done very little teaching in this time. also as i was not expecting to be teaching on this trip i do not have any resources with me.
i realise that there is probably very little i can do in such a short amount of time but any help will be greatly appreciated.
looking forward to you reply,
