LOL... comments on anything???
The details of the SR9 recall have just been posted on the Ruger website. Here's a link...
Any comments on the Glock style trigger???
As for the SR9, have you even examined and compared the Glock trigger and internal parts with the new SR9 fix? I don't think so and neither have I. Until we have, I'd suggest holding off commenting until we know for sure and how it was done.
And lastly, why don't you give credit where it's due. Ruger stepped up to the plate and is fixing their problem, unlike your favored Kel-Tec company, who just passes out parts to customers to fix their guns, instead of doing a little retooling.
Seriously, I know you're the head man around here, but all your "copy" talk every chance you get is starting to discredit you... at least in my humble opinion. We all know you don't care much for Ruger... ease up a little. You don't see the LCP folks coming here and disrespecting your pocket pistol as you do every chance you get with Ruger. We can talk about the two companies and their products, but come on, you're almost bordering on Ruger bashing....
Humor is obviously lost on some, but:
I don't know anyone who doesn't recognize the LCP as a straight-up copy of the P3AT. I have no problem with Ruger copying the unpatented KelTec design, but just because a design isn't patented doesn't mean Ruger didn't copy it. Yeah, they made some cosmetic changes to the frame and tacked on a slide hold-open, but it's still a copy, and clearly so to anyone who looks at the gun side-by-side (and I have).
Ruger's gun could fire when dropped, a patently unsafe condition that was the result of an utter engineering failure. They really had no choice but to "step up to the plate" if they wanted to stay in business and not be sued out of existence by all the people with extra holes in themselves.
Ruger has made some good firearms in the past. But pretending they are doing anything startling or original with the LCP or the SR9 is silly. These are just copies, whether mechanical in the case of the LCP, or conceptual in the case of the SR9.
I'm certainly not the "head guy" here. That title without question belongs to js.
Maybe Ruger's lawyers should stamp those warnings on the barrels of their guns, too. Then they'll have a complete owner's manual cast right into the gun, and they can save a few bucks on printing costs.
Properly engineered modern handguns do not fire when dropped.
The only thing those warning pics are missing is the stick figure guy with holes in him!
The evolution of firearms is similar to the evolution of life. There are certain effective traits that show up repeatedly in convergent evolution, using the parts and structures avaliable. Occasionally, a new trait is developed, but overall, form and function dictate change and design.
I looked at the Kel-tec and LCP drawings, and though they are similar, there are improvements made to the Ruger that give it new traits within the overall structure of the firearm design. The design is an improvement on the Kel-tec. It is also a better-made firearm; of higher quality. That has been the remark of every reviewer.
Thus, calling the LCP a "copy" of the Kel-tec is simplistic, and does not take into account the obvious differences in the two firearms, in relation to the general structure of that genre.
Ruger has always striven to produce the highest-quality firearms. The LCP is back-ordered all over the USA. One can find Kel-tec's in abundance in almost any gun shop. That in itself says something to the quality and design of the weapon. I had to wait over four months to get one. I specifially did not want the Kel-tec, after examining it. Well, that's evolution for you.
The SR9 may have a "Glock style" trigger, but exploded drawings will show you that the two have enough differences to be two, distinct "species".
Personally I am not as impressed with Glock as others may be. I have had two of them and the one I have now is the only firearm that I would be willing to sell. But I do acknowledge the quality and popularity of the manufacturer. There is no reason not to purchase a Glock if one is so inclined.
I see many people on these forums who are all too willing to "bash" a particular manufacturer, for reasons unknown. I believe that such tendentious statements limit the value of information on a forum. Many neophytes come to these forums seeking credible advice about firearms. When they read someone ranting against a manufacturer they must come away with doubts that are really not justified. That can only work to the pejorative of the purpose of the forum.
Honestly, I have never met anyone who didn't like Ruger. Ruger is one of the great American success stories. And they NEVER build junk.
I will absolutely own both an SR9 and and LCP when they become more readily available.

I downloaded backtrack 5 r3 by torrent and checked the md5sum, which was OK. I installed BT as a virtual machine and ran, thenCode:apt-get update. During the upgrade, the connection was terminated by Eset Smart Security, as a Trojan was connected: JS/TrojanDownloader.Agent.GJ trojanCode:apt-get upgrade
Running,which is where the trojan was detected in the upgrade, causes Eset to interrupt again with the same problem.Code:gem install librex -v '0.0.68'
What should I do?
I was surprised by this. I don't think I would have detected this had I been installing BT onto bare metal.

As a teacher I often ask myself questions that would be easily answered by querying a corpus, e.g. which is most frequent, "easier" or "more easier"? ... what about "easiliest" or "most easily"?
At http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/course/76-451/kulick.html I found the answer to the first question (3210 occurrences of <easier>, 19 occurrences of <more+easy>).
How do I go about using a corpus myself to find answers like these? Where can I find a corpus that I can use?
Thanks for any suggestions,

The newspaper, Azzaman, over the past three days reported several stories about fighting and killing in Iraq cities far away from Baghdad. The American press focuses mainly on large cities and tends to ignore the situation in the provinces. In the cities of Diwaniya and Karabala, there has been virtually non-stop fighting between several different factions, none of which are connected to al-Qaeda although Bush insists that group is responsible for violence. Unauthorized gun men belonging to groups associated with the Shiite cleric, al Sadr engaged in fighting with unruly militants connected to the Supreme Islamic Iraq Council. In the midst of their fighting another group appeared on the scene which goes by the name of Kataib al-Hussein and no one is aware of connections between this new faction and any existing group.
These fragments of stories continually appear in Iraq newspapers like Azzaman. Men are fighting for power or religious reasons or because they hate America or because it is a lucrative occupation. The American press reports about the "surge" and ignores the daily lives of Iraqis which are filled with terror, violence and death. A top scientist, Dr. Mohammed al-Attabi was killed this week, because he was a scientist. Such is life in Iraq.

Millions may be afraid to anger the power of YouTube, but the Chinese government is making clear it will not be intimidated by any upstart organization which dares to challenge the 3,000 year old dynasty that is known as China. The Chinese Foreign Ministry made clear that YouTube will not be available for the inhabitants of its nation. According to a spokesperson Qin Gang, "many people have the false impression that the Chinese government fears the Internet. In fact, it is just the opposite." So there, all you rabble rousers who present these weird ideas about freedom of speech and press! Of course, there are 300,000,000 people in China who daily access the Internet and sites like YouTube. Since early March, access to YouTube has ben spotty.
Since January, there has been a crackdown on the Internet. It may partly stem from fears the anniversary of the Tibetan conflict last year would be used by Internet sources to stir up anger against China. As always in fights with the force of Internet, there may be a temporary victory, but the power of communication will never be stifled.

The University of Utah will pay tribute to 11 Utah veterans on Friday at 11 a.m. in the ballroom of the Olpin Union Building.
A discussion about "Korea: The Forgotten War" will precede the ceremony, from 8:45 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. in the Union Theater, also in the Olpin Union Building.
Panelist Lt. Col Dick Raybould, retired from the U.S. Army, will share his experiences while he was deployed, and Lt. Col. Chris Gedney, retired from the U.S. Air Force, will speak about serving on the "front lines" of Korea, decades after the cease-fire.
The U. released these profiles of the veterans who will be honored after the panel with a rifle salute and full-dress military uniform ceremony.
• JAMES HOYT ANDREWS, Marine Corps, Korea.
At 17, James Andrews volunteered to join the Marine Corps. In less than one year, he was fighting a battle at the top of a hill in Korea. After his sole comrade left to attend to wounded soldiers, Andrews ran toward an active bunker. A grenade thrown from the bunker blew him into the air and destroyed his rifle. He climbed on top of the bunker and threw a grenade into it.
He discovered most of the rest of his squad was dead or wounded, but found two machine gunners and took them back toward the top of the hill. As they entered a trench, the two men were shot in the head. Andrews, armed with only his pistol, located and shot the enemy sniper. When another platoon arrived, Andrews rallied this platoon and the men secured the hill.
Six months before his three-year enlistment was up, Andrews was offered a commission that he declined. He separated from the Marine Corps as a Staff Sergeant with a Silver Star and two Purple Hearts.
• GILCHRIST "GIL" BOOTH, Army, World War II.
Gil Booth entered the military in 1943 and served as a replacement loader/cannoner and gunner in the 743rd Tank Battalion. The unit was in the infamous hedgerows of Normandy when Booth joined them, but they fought on to Holland, to Belgium and then to Aachen, Germany.
One night, Booth's unit pulled into a little town flanked on one side by a brick wall and on the other side by a pine tree. On a coin flip, Booth's unit took the side of the town with the brick wall. Crew members went inside a building to stretch out, leaving two men to guard their unit's tank one to sleep, one to guard. Booth took the first guard shift and afterward went to sleep. When he woke up, he saw that the tank was on fire. He ran over and rescued his fellow soldier. For his actions, Booth was awarded the Silver Star.
• RICHARD LEE BURNS, Air Force, World War II and Korea.
After high school, Richard Burns enrolled in Valley Forge Military Academy, where he completed two years of college. He was waiting for entry into the Flying Cadet program when he received his orders to report. Burns completed advanced training and was sent to fighter school. He and his unit were shipped out to India but when they arrived, they learned the ship with their aircraft on it had been sunk.
They obtained aircraft from a mercenary group called the Flying Tigers and flew as escort cover for the C-46 cargo airplanes, ferrying supplies to the Chinese Army over "the hump," the eastern-most flank of the Himalayas. Burns also flew dive-bombing and strafing missions in support of the infantry, tallying 152 combat missions. After WWII, Burns was assigned to Japan as part of the American Occupational Force, where he was assigned to the Air Rescue Squadron flying from Japan to rescue downed Korean War pilots, some behind enemy lines. He flew SB-17, C-47 and SA-16 aircraft and completed 34 missions.
• RICHARD S. DIXON, Army, Vietnam.
On the night of Oct. 9, 1967, near Bong Son in the Republic of Vietnam, Richard S. Dixon a 20-year-old machine gunner and demolition expert was traveling with 10 members of his squad in a two-vehicle convoy when it was ambushed by at least two dozen Viet Cong soldiers. A rocket-propelled grenade round struck the truck in which Dixon was riding with seven of his buddies. Another round ignited the truck's gas tank, and machine gun fire killed their commanding officer. Dixon's legs and feet were riddled with shrapnel. When he jumped out, he was shot in the forearm by a machine gunner.
Although he had a compound fracture, Dixon returned fire with his sidearm until the pistol jammed. He retrieved another pistol from the body of his commanding officer and shot at close range until an enemy grenade exploded three feet in front of him. The grenade blast shredded his liver, stomach and intestines. Although grievously wounded, Dixon continued to fire his pistol at virtually pointblank range.
The VC force suddenly disengaged when parachute flares, fired from a nearby Republic of Korea howitzer battery, lit up the area. All members of Dixon's unit were injured or killed.
Over the next seven months Dixon underwent 34 surgeries. While he was in the hospital at Qui Nhon Bay, Gen. William Westmoreland, commander of all the troops in Vietnam, personally presented Dixon with a Purple Heart.
• GORDON EWELL, National Guard, Iraqi Freedom.
"Gordy" Ewell joined the National Guard after he graduated from Emory County High School in 1985. He began his military career as a radio telegraph operator, but later become a combat engineer and demolition specialist. During his year in Iraq, Ewell went on 59 combat missions. He led dozens of night missions to look for disguised IED. His convoy usually contained four or five vehicles "lit up like a Christmas tree" to shed light on potential hazards.
Ewell noted that it was not unusual for his team to find 15 to 18 bombs every night, and to engage with the enemy four or five times. While deployed, Ewell started writing the Army's first route clearance handbook.
He was in vehicles hit by IEDs six times during his deployment, including one that blew out his impacted wisdom teeth. After that explosion, Ewell was scheduled to leave to begin training another team, so he packed his mouth with gauze and caught a helicopter, only seeking medical and dental attention when he arrived at his destination. Ewell received the Bronze Star for his work as part of the first Mobile Observation Team, for writing the handbook, and for continuing to perform his route clearance duties while engaged with the enemy.
• KIMEL "KIM" FISHER, Army, Vietnam.
Kim Fisher entered the U.S. Army just prior to his 22nd birthday, after completing an LDS mission to Germany in 1968. He served for two years on active duty. After basic training and infantry training, Fisher was sent to the Non-commissioned Officer Academy and graduated with the rank of staff sergeant. In September 1969, Fisher was assigned to the 25th Infantry Division ("Tropic Lightning") in the Republic of Vietnam. He was assigned as a platoon sergeant with C Company/4th Battalion/23rd Infantry Regiment. Due to the vagaries of service, he was frequently without an officer and performed the duties of both platoon leader and platoon sergeant.
During his tour, Fisher was awarded the Silver Star twice for actions in contact with the enemy. In one incident, he performed first aid on one of his soldiers while pinned down under heavy automatic weapons fire. He pulled the soldier to a covered position when a mortar round landed at his feet. Luckily, it was a dud. Fisher says he only wanted to help his fellow soldiers survive and get back home. After returning, he graduated from the University of Utah and had a successful career as a dentist.
• EDWIN B. HERRNECKAR, Army, Vietnam.
Ed HerrNeckar entered the U.S. Army in 1958 and served eight years as an enlisted man. After an initial stateside assignment with the Air Defense Artillery, he served in the Republic of Panama. He was then assigned to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, where he took a colonel's advice and applied for Officers Candidate School. Commissioned in the Signal Corps, HerrNeckar was sent to the Republic of Vietnam and served with the 221st Signal Company and the 69th Signal Battalion.
HerrNeckar was caught up in the Tet Offensive of 1968, where he helped a reaction force clear an Air Force compound that had been overrun by enemy attackers. He went down an alley under fire and dragged out a stalled jeep by crawling on his back under the vehicle. This opened the way for U.S. forces to advance and recover the compound. For this, HerrNeckar was awarded the Bronze Star for heroism in ground combat.
Upon returning from Vietnam, HerrNeckar went to flight school and was trained on the AH-1G Cobra attack helicopter. He went back to Vietnam in 1970 as a pilot with D Troop/1st Squadron/1st Cavalry Regiment of the American Division, where he flew missions in support of various operations and units. While supporting the 5th Special Force Group he put his Cobra between enemy fire and a Special Forces team that was being extracted. He received and returned fire and remained at a hover while the A-Team was safely extracted. Two UH-1 helicopters were shot down in this operation and two of the eight crew members were killed.
HerrNeckar served 20 years in the Army and served two tours in the Republic of Vietnam. He retired as a major in 1978.
• CHARLES R. HUGHES, Army, World War II.
When WWII broke out, Charles Hughes was enrolled in West Chester State Teachers College. In 1942, he enlisted in the Army to take advantage of a rigorous engineering program that allowed recruits to stay in college as long as they kept up their grades. His test scores were so high upon graduation that Hughes was allowed to choose to attend engineering school in Washington, Penn., but after six months, the school was closed.
Things were getting tough for the allies in North Africa and soon Hughes was on a freight train to basic training in Georgia.
Hughes was eventually assigned to E Company, 379th Infantry Regiment of the 95th Infantry Division heading overseas to France and entered combat in October 1944. On the front line, a less-than-supportive sergeant made Hughes the unit's First Scout and gave him extra tracer rounds with which to draw fire from a position about 100 yards ahead of the rest of the unit.
One morning, Hughes and his squad were assigned to clear the last in a group of houses they had to pass. The unit had not gone far when machine gun fire erupted. A tank destroyer pinned down the machine gunners and allowed his men to move single-file along the narrow street. Hughes was hit and his left leg was shattered. He dropped into a small ditch behind a hedge. Having lost his rifle, Hughes pulled the pin on a grenade and threw it through the window of the house, killing the men inside. The trooper who had shot him was outside the house, however, so Hughes threw his second grenade, bouncing it off the wall of the building across the road so it would land right in front of the German soldier.
A medic was eventually able to dress Hughes' wounds and carry him back to a jeep, where he saw the only surviving German soldier lying on a stretcher. Hughes learned that he alone had killed nearly the entire enemy squad.
• PAUL SMITH, Navy, Marine Corps, World War II.
Paul Smith joined the Navy hospital corps in November 1942, becoming what was known as a "corpsman." Once he was sent overseas, he was assigned as a replacement to the 22nd Marine Regiment, a part of the First Provisional Marine Brigade. After several close calls on Guam, Smith's unit went to Okinawa, Japan, where he alternated between a forward aid station and the battalion aid station.
One May day at the forward aid station, he found a badly injured patient who needed transport back to battalion aid. Smith put the patient in the top stretcher slot in the ambulance and was holding up a bag of plasma when he heard a machine gun. Smith dropped to the ground, and the plasma splattered everywhere. Smith saw smoke from his pants, and he realized that a bullet had gone through his leg, just missing his femur.
When they assessed the wounded, Smith found that his injury was the least severe, so the others rode in the ambulance and Smith held on to the back. He was later evacuated to a medical ship and then to Guam for treatment. That was Smith's last day in combat.
• JOSEPH STOBBE, Army, World War II.
Joseph Stobbe volunteered and entered the Army on Sept. 25, 1943. In the spring of 1944, he sailed on a troop ship from New York City and arrived at Normandy's Utah Beach on June 16, ten days after D-Day. He was assigned to Company G, 358th Regiment, 90th Infantry Division and became a sniper.
Stobbe received two Purple Hearts for injuries to his hand and neck in separate incidents. In November 1944, while his unit approached the town of Metzervisse, a German threw a grenade at Stobbe. One of his soldiers fired at the German but the bullet ricocheted off a building's wall and went through the back of Stobbe's left elbow. Making his way to an aid station a few miles away, he was treated for his wound and sent to a hospital in Luxembourg.
From Luxembourg, Stobbe went to Reims, then on to a hospital in Paris just before Christmas. Finally, he ended up in a hospital in England. He received a third Purple Heart for this injury and learned he would not go back into combat.
• CLYDE E. WEEKS, JR., Marine Corps, World War II.
Clyde E. Weeks, Jr., a 17-year-old student at the University of Utah, enlisted in the US Marine Corps on Feb. 15, 1943. Weeks developed a specialty as a telephone lineman, charged with establishing and maintaining copper wire telephone connections between battle stations. Weeks provided communications for his unit as they fought toward Agana, the embattled capital city of Guam.
As they moved forward, they encountered a concrete bunker from which Japanese soldiers fiercely returned fire. A grenade exploded at Weeks' feet, blowing him to the ground and badly injuring his legs. He lost consciousness and two corpsmen carried him through heavy fire to safety on the beach. On a hospital ship, surgeons removed 22 grenade fragments from Weeks' body and put him in a shoulder-to-toes cast that he wore for months.
He was treated at the Pearl Harbor Naval Hospital and at six different hospitals in the U.S. throughout the next year. He was released from the VA hospital in Salt Lake City a week after the war ended in August 1945. Wearing his Purple Heart, Weeks finally returned home to Orem, where he served as postmaster for 40 years.

Last Updated: 2/23/2013
Fall is no time to cozy up and hibernate. It's a time to explore the fall colors. To raise a glass at Oktoberfests. To pick pumpkins and apples. To blaze new bike or ATV trails. In short, it's a time to get up and get out!

text: By far worse. No question. We started last year with Billups on the team, arguably the best point guard in the league despite the aging. And it was a perfect situation. Stuckey was going to take a lot of minutes, and Billups was going to be well rested for the playoffs. Dumars ruined it all in the name of who knows what. CV? Gordon? Hah. Bad move. Dumars tried to swindle us into thinking AI was going to replace Billups, but it did not happen. Some of us with half a memory still know what happened - we basically gave Billups away. More recently, Dumars, in his infinite stupidity, decided to give two of our best defenders away. In the name of what? Cap space to add players. But wait, what players. Wilcox? Is Wilcox going to start playing defense this year? We did get Big Ben Wallace back, for cheap too. This is one move I like, though I fear this rookie coach is going to try to lean on Ben too heavily - and just wear him out to uselessness soon. I do hope this coach has half a brain, and uses Wallace to compliment the other players, not as a starter of a super sub who plays starters minutes. But again, who still has half a memory left? Sure, I thought we used Dyess way wrong. Still, Dyess was a good solid player. With a decent coach playing this older vet spare minutes off the bench, Dyess can be a very valuable palyer. Anyone notice though, he ain't around. And Sheed, a guy who Curry totally mismanaged last year, trying to make him play like a 20 year old at his ripe old age. This was stupidity by Curry, followed up by stupidity by Dumars letting Sheed go sign cheap with someone else. Lets review. Sheed, Billups, Amir, Afflalo, and Dyess all gone. Five players who either started for us last year or will start for his new team this year. In return? Unproven rookies. And an older Ben Wallace, Charlie Villanueva, Ben Gordon, and Wilcox. Cap space move after cap space move, and never anything in return at the end for all the cap space moves. Since we won it all in 2004, all Dumars has done is tear the team down in the name of cap space. He needs to go if the Pistons are to ever have another winning season.

Rivet removal!!!
I have asked many questions here and I promised when I finally had some advice I would share it. Well, I finally do. I spend all weekend removing the rear suspension/motor and trans from my 54' chevy 4door. As most know they riveted alot of the brackets in. Instructions are usually to drill them out. I came up with a better way, I think! This could be common knowledge, but it worked great and was less work, and than drilling out rivets, and killing your drill bits in the process. First you take an angle grinder with a thin disk and slice off the head of the rivet flush, Then take a center punch and a Pneumatic Palm Nailer and zap them out. Worked like a charm, and I didn't have to kill any drill bits. I know that a Pneumatic Palm Nailer is not a common car tool, but if you have one they work great for this, they also arent that expensive, and you don't need a giant compressor to run. You are also left with an intake bracket that hasn't been drilled off center. Sorry if this is old info for some, but I though it was a pretty cool way of getting rivets out.

Just wanted to throw out some pictures of my Fett build I'm working on. I'm working with basically no budget. So a lot of the parts are going to be as close as I can get from sourcing the parts from second hand stores, yard sales, and cannibalizing things from my house. (don't tell my wife) I'm hoping to have this finished for the Anime Boston convention this year. I'm really just putting together all the parts that I like, IE ROTJ jetpack, ESB bucket, ESB cape....I know this will drive some of the perfectionists around here nuts!
My foam board/plastic parts found at the dollar store jetpack
More foam board and some plastic advertising signs from my work.
not bad for around 10 bucks.
4 Dollar fake leather 1 dollar rope, 1 dollar "princess" hair extension lol
357 magnum toy gun, more signs from work, an old aluminum sign found in the swap shop at the dump, and electrical conduit.
and the only piece that costs more than 15 dollars so far. My asok cold cast bucket.
Hope you guys enjoy my effort. It really has been a lot of fun. I feel like its part of the spirit of Star Wars, found parts are a huge part of these costumes.

Posted by Paul Hagen on March 15, 2011
Michael Porter famously wrote that companies differentiate themselves by performing a unique set of activities from their competitors' or by performing the same activities differently.
Here are some numbers: 86% of companies say customer experience is a top strategic priority for 2011; 76% seek to differentiate based on customer experience; 46% have a companywide program for improving customer experience currently in place and another 30% are actively considering it; and 52% have a voice of the customer program in place with close to 30% more actively considering it.
With the majority of companies focused on improving customer experience, how can a company expect to differentiate on it? Because there remains a tremendous amount of lip service and intellectual dishonesty about what it takes. Let me give a few examples:

text: Bariatric Surgery: Laparoscopic Adjustable BandingBariatric surgery changes the size of your stomach to help you lose weight. The goal is to limit how much food can be eaten and/or absorbed at one time. You are having laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding. This procedure closes off a portion of the stomach to create a very small pouch.The ProcedureAn adjustable band is placed around the top part of the stomach to create a small pouch. This pouch holds a few tablespoons of food. Food passes slowly through a narrow opening at the bottom of the pouch. So you feel full longer. The size of the band is adjusted using a port placed under the skin. Adjusting the band changes how quickly food leaves the new pouch.Special Note: The GallbladderBariatric surgery is designed to cause a large amount of weight loss. Weight loss can cause deposits in the gallbladder called gallstones. To prevent this, the gallbladder may be removed during your surgery or at a later date.

LeGarrette Blount 's name was first on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' running back depth chart through three preseason games. That is no longer. The Bucs posted an updated depth chart Monday, and rookie Doug Martin is sitting on top.
Through three preseason games, Martin rushed 27 times for 97 yards and two touchdowns. He added four receptions for 19 yards. Blount rushed 22 times for 63 yards and one touchdown and added only one short reception.
Fantasy Analysis:
The movement on the depth chart is largely academic. Martin has been the team's best running since before camp opened. His more skilled than Blount; he is quicker and can contribute on all downs. It can't be more clear, but there you have it. Martin currently has a fourth-round ADP. He's going to get a ton of touches, probably 20 per week, in Greg Schiano's run-first offense, and he'll have extra value in PPR leagues. The sky's the limit for this kid.

CHAPEL HILL --- Xylina McDaniel scored 15 of her career-high 19 points after halftime and No. 11 North Carolina withstood a furious rally to top No. 20 Florida State, 72-62, Thursday night at Carmichael Arena. Waltiea Rolle finished with 18 points on 9-of-12 shooting and 10 rebounds as the Tar Heels won their 20th game and gave head coach Sylvia Hatchell her 899th career victory.
UNC (20-2, 8-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) looked poised to run away with it early, darting out to a 21-8 lead just eight minutes in. The advantaged swelled to 19 on Tierra Ruffin-Pratt's long 2 with just over four to play in the half, but the Seminoles gradually chipped away over the next 13 minutes.
Natasha Howard sparked a 12-2 run that spanned five minutes across halftime before Leo Rodriguez took over for Florida State (17-4, 7-3 ACC). The Canary Islands senior scored 11 points over a seven-minute stretch and Alexa Deluzio's 3 with 9:01 to play gave FSU its first lead of the night at 53-52.
Rolle and Krista Gross, who finished with a game-high 13 rebounds, scored on consecutive possessions to stake the Tar Heels to a 3-point advantage before it was McDaniel's turn to take over.
The Columbia, S.C., freshman scored 10 points over the next five minutes to push the Carolina advantage to 8, and the Seminoles would get no closer. Ruffin-Pratt, Coleman and Brittany Rountree made 6 of 8 free throws in the final 2:15 to salt away UNC's 20th win of the season.
Rodriguez led Florida State with 18, while Deluzio finished with 16 and Howard had 12 points and 11 boards.
Carolina, who won just 20 games en route to missing the NCAA tournament a year ago, reached that mark with still nine league games to go in the regular season. Getting to that milestone in January is something the Tar Heels hadn't done since their 2006-07 Final Four campaign, and marked the 29th time in 38 seasons a Hatchell-coached squad has hit 20 wins.
UNC will try to make Hatchell just the third coach in women's basketball history to reach 900 wins when the Tar Heels host Duke Sunday afternoon at 1.

Indiana– Visiting a barbershop in one of these 13 cities on Saturday, April 5, 2014 could mean more than just getting a haircut; it might save your life. The Indiana Commission on the Social Status of Black Males (ICSSBM) in conjunction with local commissions and community partners will be providing health screenings and education at more than 50 barbershops from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Click here for a complete list of participating barbershops.
The Indiana Black Barbershop Heath Initiative, along with numerous volunteers, seeks to enlighten African American men to better understand cardiovascular diseases through screening and education. This year's statewide initiative partners include Admiral Medical Supplies, Affecting Cancer Together (ACT) and the Indiana Minority Health Coalition. The initiative also enjoys support from local health and community partners and is thankful for the public engagement in each city.
Recent figures from the Indiana Department of Health show African American men have the highest mortality rate of any group in Indiana. African American men also suffer from prostate cancer at a higher level in Indiana than any other racial or ethnic group.
This is the fourth year for the annual initiative and from the first year with six cities the initiative has doubled to 13 cities. The initiative utilizes over fifty barbershops, over two hundred barbers and more than three hundred volunteers. To learn more about the health outreach effort, and to view a complete list of the barbershops involved, please go to www.in.gov/icssbm.

I am currently pressed as to what online school to choose for an initial basic certification on TESOL or TEFL for use here in Japan. My current choices are:
1.) i to i (120 hours online and 20 hours in class available in Japan.. I don't know if its a practicum teaching leading to experience equivalent..)
-my feedback: website looks commercialized and travel-oriented. no downloadable syllabus, hyped accreditation)
2.) american tesol institute (which they have a partner school here in japan called volta assoc. which only offers 90 hours online and about 10 or 20 hours in class.. not sure if its a teaching practicum though or just a normal in class lecture...)
-my feedback: the site is simple, and the information about the courses is adequate. There is a physical address, no hype on accreditation, downloadable syllabus... my problem is I have not heard of American Tesol Institute before, nor have I read something about it in any other forums.
3.) LTTC ("diploma" in tesol) - good feedback from others except for the delayed certificate, purely online, offers a "diploma" in tesol which seems dubious...)
so here is my situation..
I am a graduate of a 4 year course (Industrial Economics) and used English all through out my academic years. I am currently in Japan and have been studying Japanese for 6 months now. I have been applying to different public schools, eikaiwas (Berlitz, Shane...) and private schools since I came here...however either they don't reply or say that the position has been filled. I even went to the prefecture's town hall and talked with the ward's president of the board of education, but still to no avail. I was informed that a TESOL or TEFL is required if I have no teaching experience. She even suggested me to get a certification online before the season of hiring new teachers starts. So being a non-native, I thought maybe I can have a better position in the teaching industry by taking a certification.
I read the posts here by Alex and systematic as well as the mysterious ICALpete and they gave me great feedback I have read the article about how to avoid some TEFL course/scam... So now I have narrowed my options to those three online schools..
I want to assure that my certificate will be accepted and my money not wasted. Which course should I take given the prices of each courses? Or should I stick with my credentials and try my luck applying to public/private schools this season without taking any certifications?
one more thing, I am currently giving private business english lessons to five japanese with diverse professionals and I seem to be enjoying it.
So, in short, do I take a certification? which one? or should I just make a go for it without taking any certification? thanks..

I am just wondering if you splurged and bought your first dress or wore a nice shirt with pants? I am going to test an interpretive at the end of the year and thought I would wait to get a dress for that.

Our Wedding
Nicole and Antonio's Wedding
"Everyone who stayed here was beyond thrilled with their experience."
Emily and Kendell's Wedding
"Our rehearsal dinner was at the Landmark Inn in the Sky Room, with food catered by the hotel. Everything was amazing. The room was gorgeous--a fireplace, a beautiful mural on the ceiling, gold chargers under the plates and gold bows on the chairs. The view was unparalleled: Marquette's lower harbor, the city, and miles of hills and forest beyond. The food was incredible. We had the Landmark Salad, four entree options (steak, salmon, chicken prosciutto, and vegetarian pasta), and a unique, off-menu dessert created by chef Joe, who also did the wedding cake. The Triple Chocolate Mousse he created for the dinner was amazing. I highly recommend the Landmark Inn. Their service was impeccable."

Hi everyone!
I'm new to the forum so I'll give a quick rundown of my situation. I'm a native English-speaking American and I will be graduating with a BA in Psychology this May (focusing on ABA Therapy for autistic children, so I've had experience teaching and working with children). Unfortunately I don't have a TEFL certificate or anything, but I'm planning on taking a year or two off before applying for graduate schools back in the US. I plan on flying out to Thailand sometime in August with a close friend. While this trip is primarily focused on personal travel, with my student loan payments beginning 6 months after graduation, financing will be an issue. TEFL seems to be the perfect remedy for the situation. We'll still be able to experience the new culture and it sounds like it will be a fantastic experience! I have a few questions, I apologize if they're repeat questions, but it would be nice to have all of my thoughts in one post:
Since we'll be leaving in August (roughly), how much time would that allow us for personal travel prior to beginning a term of TEFL somewhere?
Does anyone have any recommendations for specific agencies to contact for working out of Thailand? I've seen a lot of concern expressed for the poor quality of some of the companies that TEFL teachers end up working for and would like this experience not to be something I end up regretting.
Qualities that I'm looking for in a company:
-Some sort of airfare compensation/home visits compensation
-Reasonable Salary
-Reasonable working hours/conditions (I've seen some companies that ask for 50+ hrs/week!)
-Decent living accommodations (non-shared living situation is a plus, but not necessary)
-Coming from those of you who have experienced this already, is there anything else in particular I should be looking for in an agency that I may not be thinking of?
Based on experiences, do you recommended any specific regions or cities in Thailand? I'm typically drawn to natural beauty as opposed to city life, although I enjoy the benefits of living in a large city very much as well.
I have more questions...but I'll try not to flood this post, and I'm sure I'll have plenty more after hearing some replies. Thank you very much!

So Boca, are you using a top vent to get rid of that moisture?
Mass of Sugar + O2 is just a smidgen greater than the mass of the CO2 + H2O. That's so we get to bring up E=mc^2. That small smidgen of mass deficit times the speed of light squared gets our bees that 2880 kJ/mole of released energy. We gotta get Einstein involved in here somewhere :)

Challenging the Wisdom of the Trans Texas Corridor.
comment on this page or topic
Recommended Preferred Corridor Alternative (April 2006)
Proposed TTC-69 Recommended Reasonable Corridor Alternatives, Including Expanded Scope
(September 2005)
TxDOT's 2002 Corridor Conceptual Map
2002 Conceptual Map Showing County Boundaries
What Is
The Trans Texas Corridor?
The Trans Texas Corridor
is not a toll road,
toll roads are just one part of the Trans Texas Corridor.
The Trans Texas Corridor
(TTC) is
not one but several all-Texas 1/4-mile-wide corridors that
are planned to include toll roads for passenger vehicles and trucks, passenger
bullet trains, commuters trains, high-speed freight trains, pipelines of all
types, and electrical transmission towers. Plans also include
gas stations,
garages, restaurants, hotels, stores, billboards, warehouses, freight
interchange, intermodal transfer areas, passenger train stations, bus stations,
parking facilities, dispatch control centers, maintenance facilities, pipeline
pumping stations, and of course, toll facilities.
The Trans Texas Corridor is the largest engineering project ever proposed for Texas. The
corridor will far exceed any public works project in the state's history.
This statewide network of priority corridors will stretch 4,000 miles and measure up to
1,200 feet wide.
Each segment of the corridor will contain:
Six 12-foot
Passenger Vehicle Lanes (80mph); 112-feet in aggregate width with shoulders.
Four 13-foot Truck
Lanes; 84-feet in aggregate width with shoulders.
Two Tracks for
200mph High-Speed Passenger Rail. (All depots are contained within the
Two Tracks for
80mph Commuter Passenger Rail.
Two Tracks for
80mph Freight Rail.
A 200-foot Utility
Zone for large underground water lines, natural gas and petroleum pipelines,
telecommunication cables and overhead high-voltage electric transmission lines.
Maintenance Zone.
Safety Zones
sufficient to accommodate future roadway expansion.
Four priority corridors have been
identified. Those corridors parallel:
and I-69 (proposed) from Denison to the Rio Grande Valley.
(proposed) from Texarkana to Houston to Laredo.
I-45 from
Dallas-Fort Worth to Houston.
I-10 from El
Paso to Orange.
The priority corridors account for
about half the total 8,000 miles of the Trans Texas Corridor.
In addition to TxDOT, private-sector analysis will
identify other corridors for immediate development and future investment. TxDOT or the private sector will develop the other corridors as each segment becomes more necessary.
The typical corridor section will
require 146 acres of right of way per mile. The total anticipated right of way
for 4,000 miles of priority corridor is 584,000 acres.
Based on an estimated cost of $31.4 million per centerline mile,
the 4,000-mile corridor will cost $125.5 billion, not including right of way
and miscellaneous costs. Factoring in right of way at $11.7 billion to $38
billion and miscellaneous costs at $8 billion to $20 billion,
the estimated
total cost for the Trans Texas Corridor ranges from $145.2 billion to
$183.5 billion.
NOTE: Based on the February 2007
of TxDOT and the TTC the actual cost of the entire TTC could
exceed $754 billion.
NOTE: Based on the February 2007
of TxDOT and the TTC the actual cost of the entire TTC could
exceed $754 billion.
NOTE: Based on the February 2007
of TxDOT and the TTC the actual cost of the entire TTC could
exceed $754 billion.
No major land acquisition in metropolitan areas is required.
The TxDOT plan states that they
need to move quickly in developing the corridor segments that will generate the
highest toll level—revenue that will
enable them to extend the corridor into every section of
the state.
The vision is that the corridor will be developed in
phases through several scenarios. For example, the heavy-duty truck lanes (two
in each direction) could be built first, to be shared initially by both
passenger vehicles and trucks. As traffic volumes increase and additional
capacity is warranted, separate passenger lanes will be constructed.
The rail component also lends itself to phased
construction. Construction of high-speed
passenger rail to connect the largest population areas will be implemented as the need grows for travel alternatives.
The TxDOT plan anticipates that they would lease
undeveloped segments of the corridor back to adjacent landowners.
Connection between the corridor and nearby cities will be
accomplished with the existing highway system. Proposed corridor segments will require interconnection with additional modes of transportation to enable passengers and freight to reach their
final destinations in nearby cities. Privately funded franchises or public-private partnerships will provide transportation from the corridor to destination cities.
These corridor connections will create investment opportunities
for public-private partnerships, utility companies and privately
funded franchises interested in providing utility lines, intermodal freight
transfer facilities and passenger facilities at strategically located
access points.
All roadways (excluding unpaved county roads), rails and streams intersecting the corridor are assumed to be grade-separated.
Most crossings will be handled by simple grade-separation bridge structures.
These allow existing local highway and rail
facilities to cross the corridor but not access it. Grade separations may be
provided for farm to market highways, two-lane state highways, rail lines and paved county roads.
The corridor may cut through about 1,200 unpaved county roads. These roads will be reconnected to other facilities to maintain efficient traffic flow. TxDOT will endeavor to assist counties
in rebuilding any important intra-county routes affected by the corridor.
Double-diamond interchanges will be used where the corridor intersects a highway serving a significant regional traffic
base. These interchanges will provide access to and from the corridor and the crossing facility. Double-diamond interchanges will be necessary for about 60 percent of all state highways and 80
percent of all U.S. highways intersecting the corridor. [Law adopted in 2005
expanded the connectivity to include all state and U.S. highways intersecting
the corridors.]
Directional interchanges will be used where a corridor segment intersects a major highway serving cross-state traffic. Much of
the traffic from both the corridor and crossed highway facilities
will need an interchange between these intersecting routes.
Direct-connection interchanges will be provided at all 23 locations where the corridor intersects itself, at all interstate highways
intersecting the corridor and U.S. highways.

Re: Resistance
Really like this one. The coloring is fantastic. I'll buy it if it prints, although it'll be the second nuclear shirt I've bought off of woot. That may send up a red flag or two.
skirochester wrote:i'm going to take your word for it that there are 99
I'm more than sure someone on here will take the time to count and let me know if I mis-calculated.
Re: Cardinal
Yes! I hope this stays in the fog. Awesome shirt. I agree about the design placement, in that if it were off-center a little bit, it would have been perfect. Still, definitely one I'll buy if it prints.
tgentry wrote:I thought Japanese cranes were white? Can you explain the connection to the theme?
This type of japanese cranes have a red 'hat' across the top of their heads, and I pictured them in the sunrise, flying up, giving the whole scene a pink tint to them.
Re: Red Dragon
I always love your designs. This is awesome. I'll be okay giving up my dream of an all-cranberry top 3 if this is one of the prints.
Re: Love Watermelon...
rejection in 3....2....
Hi Everyone! This is my second Derby design. I'm excited to enter again.
This design traces the derby's theme (RED!) through the flags of the world's most populous countries. Everyone seems to want red in their flag, so I made a red-licious flag for the world out of the scarlet elements in individual nations' banners.
Part of the fun is piecing together which flags are which, but I'll tell you at least that the top left-hand corner is China and the bottom right-hand corner is Peru.
Vote if you enjoyed the design. Good luck to all derby entrants!

Re: Red Axe vs Red Star
Wow I'm really confused by this you have what looks like a cosmonaut with a hammer and sickle fighting a american firefighter with an axe both on dragons?!? Talk about strange pairings o_O
It's unbelievable what you're able to do with just 6 colors. Amazing!
Even a blind squirrel is right twice a day.
dang, y'know how many guys would buy that shirt?
Re: Rooted Passion
I really wish you would offer an alternate of this on black. It's an amazing design and this is just my 2 cents.
Re: Red Shirts
This is funny but your gonna need to resub sans the starfleet badge on the red shirts or do a modified one thats not the highly copyrighted logo :S Nice work though.
Re: RACHNID
this is neat. I always want to come up with designs like this, but alas, i lack the capacity. have you submitted a version of this before? it seems vaguely familiar...
tjost wrote:Wow I'm really confused by this you have what looks like a cosmonaut with a hammer and sickle fighting a american firefighter with an axe both on dragons?!? Talk about strange pairings o_O
Yeah this is both confusing yet awesome at the same time. What would you say if someone asked you what your shirt was about though?
Re: Stoq Hammertime
The 80's had all the best music and systems of government.
Re: Broken heart
"Red" reminds me of love, passion and tragedy.
Some people say this poor little fella lost his love in an terrible accident with a paper shredder. Others say she abandoned him and escaped to Rio de Janeiro with a Post-It. Which story is true, I don't know. But this poor little fella didn't stand the suffering and succumbed to overwhelming pain of love.
Re: Red Summer Skies
Nice work on this Patrick but those clouds are bugging me. They have nice form, but since you didn't stay true to the light sourcing you used for the main elements they feel very flat and pasted on, not like they're actually in the background. I'm sure this will do well nontheless

Alas, when I submitted this I hadn't counted on the backwards p turning into an uppercase Q in the title.

I can see the thumbnail, but not the larger shirt photos
Which color shirt is this on? White or silver?
YEAH! That's what it is.
I started out with a fight fire with fire theme, and then the fireman ended up on a dragon. So of course the cosmonaut needed a dragon, too...
kevincrimi wrote:Yeah this is both confusing yet awesome at the same time. What would you say if someone asked you what your shirt was about though?
You'd just stare at them with a slight bit of contempt on your face and act like they're too pedistrian not to understand it Nice job on this before I forgot to mention, just crazy juxtaposing.
I'm not much of a red fan or a bird fan but this is simply an awesome piece. Hope to see it print.

I thought the design had to be in red/pink if it was on anything other than a red or cranberry t-shirt.
Drawing and tone created on iPad2. A different approach for me. I need to ketchup to the leaders this week . Thanks for viewing.

thank you for the comments. as to familiarity, odysseyroc and myself had a design we had worked on together for a daily. This was one of the panels I had drawn and od-roc had colored. However the the daily was declined. So I went back to the panel and recolored the line work adding tonal shading and roughing and fading to produce what you see.
