UPDATED: AG petitions judge to remove Rockingham County attorney from office
BRENTWOOD — State prosecutors asked a judge to remove Rockingham County Attorney James Reams from his elected office, citing instances of sexual harassment, improper use of county and federal money and his failure to disclose potentially useful information to the defense in a 2006 sexual assault trial.
The petition comes in the wake of an investigation by the state Attorney General's Office that began in October when a former employee complained about being sexually harassed by Reams.
Prosecutors would not say on Tuesday whether they will file any criminal charges.
"The investigation has reached a point where we were able to file this petition," Associate Attorney General Jane Young said. She said if more information comes forward, they will review it and take the appropriate action.
The statute of limitations gives state prosecutors two years to file criminal charges against Reams once he leaves office.
Reams was stripped from his prosecutorial duties on Nov. 6 by Attorney General Joseph Foster. Two other employees, who have since resigned from their jobs, were suspended on the same day.
The 25-page petition filed by Foster and county commissioners alleges that women working at the Rockingham County Attorney's Office complained about Reams' behavior to the Attorney General's Office in 1999, and the county's Human Resources Department in 2012. But no disciplinary action was apparently taken regarding the matters.
"The investigation confirmed that, for over 14 years, women in the RCAO have been subjected to conduct that includes alleged sexual harassment, pregnancy discrimination, improper application of the Family Medical Leave Act and retaliation," state prosecutors said in the court petition.
1999 investigation
The 1999 investigation into sexual harassment by then-Attorney General Phil McLaughlin ended with Reams receiving a letter warning him about his alleged behavior, the petition said. Reams denied any wrongdoing at the time.
In 2012, the county's Human Resource Department conducted its own investigation into Reams, reviewing claims of "gender discrimination, sexual harassment, pregnancy discrimination, and retaliation."
That investigation found that "a hostile work environment existed and that retaliation had occurred." But Reams rejected the county's findings and no further action was taken.
"Rather, he attacked the investigation, the witnesses and the process," prosecutors said.
Reams allegedly made sexually explicit comments about one employee's high-heeled shoes and warned others about getting pregnant, according to the petition.
One employee told investigators about Reams placing his finger where her blouse became undone.
"Reams' conduct toward women in his office earned him the nickname 'creepy Uncle Jim' among some of his employees," according to the state's petition.
April 7 hearing
Defense lawyer Michael Ramsdell said on Tuesday that Reams has not yet had a chance to review the complaint because he was traveling home from his mother's funeral in Nebraska.
"I can tell you he is certainly glad that the allegations have been disclosed," Ramsdell said.
With the petition now filed, state prosecutors will have to turn over reports and other evidence to the defense, allowing them to answer the accusations in detail, Ramsdell said.
The petition to remove Reams from office will not subdue the pair of lawsuits challenging decisions to suspend his prosecutorial powers and bar him from entering his office, according to Ramsdell.
"He still feels a commitment to the voters of Rockingham County who elected him into office," Ramsdell said.
Reams wants to clear his name and return so he can finish his last term in office, according to Ramsdell.
But the election calendar may ultimately prevent Reams from stepping back into his office at the courthouse if he prevails. Civil actions can take upward of a year or more before they head to trial; Reams' term is set to expire in November. He announced three weeks ago that he will not run for re-election.
Hearings on Reams' lawsuits against the state attorney general and county commissioners are set for April 7.

Welcome to Golden Goals - a FREE video series on USA.Arsenal.com which showcases some of the finest goals in Arsenal's history.
Each of our weekly clips will feature footage of a classic goal plus expert analysis from former Gunner Stewart Robson and Arsenal.com editor Richard Clarke.
Our series kicks off with the man who has just swapped Europe for the United States - Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.
Read on for the story of his goal and click the PLAY button above to watch our FREE video clip.
Henry v West Ham (a) 08-24-2002
In August 2002, Arsenal faced a tricky trip to Upton Park for their first away trip of the season as reigning Premier League champions.
And with less than an hour gone the Gunners, unbeaten in 23 games, were staring an unlikely defeat straight in the face thanks to goals from Joe Cole and Fredi Kanoute either side of the interval.
But cometh the hour, cometh the man.
Patrick Vieira slid a low pass into Henry about 40 yards out, with his back to goal. His first touch left Christian Dailly for dead, his second on the knee set the ball just right and the third was truly emphatic as he sent a sizzling half-volley past David James from 20 yards.
The goal encapsulated two of the mercurial Frenchman's deadliest assets. The delicate cleverness to shrug off the defender alongside the ferocious power in the finish. It was pure Henry.
It proved crucial too as Sylvain Wiltord notched Arsenal's equaliser two minutes from time.

It was a week of 3 goals. The Buffalo Sabres played 3 games and got a total of 1 goal in each game. Two overtime losses were sandwiched around a horrible 5-1 loss to the Nashville Predators. Three losses, three goals, two points. That was the week that the Sabres would soon like to forget.
Sabres look punchless in 3 defeats

The AR15's are like lego guns in that you can replace any and all parts yourself. In my own personal experience the ar15 also beats the mini14 hands down in accuracy.
I've been looking at cmmg ARs, but I can get a ruger mini 14 for about $300 less. Is there any significant advantage of the AR, other than accessories?
The AR15's are like lego guns in that you can replace any and all parts yourself. In my own personal experience the ar15 also beats the mini14 hands down in accuracy.
i have had several mini-14's starting the with the 180 series then 181-182 and so on. the best one was the first one i got. to me the mini was a great design but its implementation sucked.
the reliability of the AR/M16 series is pretty good. i have carried it it all kinds of harsh places and it hasn't failed me. if it was the dud some folks make it out to be i would be surly a dead man. the AR don't cost much if any more than the mini if you BIY . hell one place i shop for parts at sells some DPMS new for $700--last time i looked a mini was going for about that.
you have all kinds of mags, barrels, conversion barrels and plentiful spare parts.
i have a 5.45x39, a 7.62x39, a m4fogerie a mid-length a1-- and numerous others and you can swap just about everything from one rifle to the other. another bright spot for the AR is that you can do a barrel change with a wrench and for the most part not worry about the head space as it is head spaced off the barrel extension. accuracy has all ready been mentioned--all of mine shoot very well.
it is a very versatile and simple weapon and easy to smith on. its only real flaw is that is it some what expensive and when you get that first one--they multiply!!! you have then caught the dreaded B.R.D. --and the only cure is to buy lots of ammo--lol
Spare magazines are also cheaper for the AR. Milspec brand new 30s are everywhere in the $10-12 range. Mini hi-caps are expensive and at one time were hard to find (factory) as Ruger had a "no 20s or 30s for civillians" sales policy. They recenty reversed this and now sell them to anybody, but the price is up there. Aftermarket Mini mags are generally crap, although a couple brands (also hard to find!) have a good rep for functioning.
Ar prices should come down a bit once the current buying frenzy fizzles out. May take years for that to happen though.......
I like my mini 14 but would never buy another Ruger product because of the 'no hicaps for civilians' thing.
Keep saving up for your AR, that extra $300 is well worth it.
Does the lower manufacturer make much of a difference in the rifle?
Is a complete rock river lower for $330 (shipping and FFL included) good?
The prices are already starting to come down. I just got a kit off Gunbroker and it dropped about $75 from the time I started looking at it to the time I bought it.
HA! I've never saved a dime doing it myself. Before I know it, I've upgraded everything and spent more than I planned on.
And yes, Rock River lowers are great. (check around for $$$'s)
Especially the 2 stage NM trigger which, if I'm not mistaken, comes in all of them.

Medal of Honor (PC)
For those of you who have not read Rob's review, you can check it out here.
My review is going to put a bit of a different spin on things. I'm not a hardcore gamer by any stretch of the imagination. Aside from Borderlands my last first person shooter was Quake II waaaay back in '98 on Heat and most of my gaming "career" has been spent running through Middle Earth in Lord Of The Rings Online up until about a year ago. Since then I have dabbled in a game here and a game there but none of which were FPS's so when I say that Medal of Honor is a huge change for me you best believe it.
The game itself looks and sounds great. The textures look clean, your teammates are really well designed, the weapons look really good as do the levels. Rocks, walls, crates and windows are getting shot up while you hear radio chatter from your teammates indicating where the enemy is or what you are required to do in between bullets whizzing past your head.
For those of you who are curious my i3 530 overclocked to 4.2Ghz, 5770 with an average overclock and 4GB of memory running slightly slower than spec was able to run the game with full settings at 1680x1050 without any slowdown although in the first two missions I noticed a lot of horizontal tearing but that may be a hardware/driver thing.
The controls were really well done and the game is easy to jump into. I especially like sliding into cover while running. The cover system is not your typical get into position, hug the wall, and shoot until all the bad guys are dead. Yes, you are hiding behind cover but that cover may get whittled away by machine gun fire or a RPG or you may be required to lean out, squeeze off a few shots and duck back in. Either way I did not run into any control issues aside from the fact that I should not game in low light until I remember what keys do what action. Where are my hellfire missles?!
Since I am pretty out of touch with FPS's I found the game brought some new features to the table. Riding towards your objective on a four wheeler and stopping to snipe a few enemies a country mile away was fun as was the attack mission with the choppers. There were two instances were the game was slowed down and allowed you to pick off some enemies in some very tense situations. There was even a section of a mission that required you to keep suppressing fire on a machine gun nest to allow your teammates to advance in order to call in an air strike. This may be standard fair now since the genre has blown up so huge but to me it was fresh.
All in all it's a pretty game that sounds great and is easy to pick up but now we come to the so-so, ho-hum part.
It would have been nice if there were more stealth elements. Running in and putting holes in everything that moves is nice and all but there needs to be some tact. There were a few points where you had to lay low but not to the extent that I was hoping for.
The AI in the game is not too bad but I found wave after wave of enemies ran right into my line of fire. This is likely a byproduct of the fact that you are required to sometimes move up to a specific point before your team advances, thus moving the mission forward with the next objective. Now I do not mind this as much as Rob did because the game makes you take initiative but what I did find kind of funky was depending on the route you take you can come up on an enemy who just stays hunkered down indefinitely. Ambushing enemies in real combat situations is nothing new but for them to keep their back to me for 30 seconds or more...no. It would have been nice if the enemy tried to flank you as well while members of their team laid down covering fire instead of digging into the same 5 or 6 spots. This would have added to some of the panic that I felt when I was getting shot at but could not find safe cover because I had no idea where the shots were coming from.
The length of the game is of course a major problem. It is like they put in the single player missions as an afterthought or plan on charging for DLC in the future. Either way it would have been nice if they stretched out the single player storyline but most FPS's live off of the multi-player aspect, which I have not had a chance to get into. Tier 1 mode, which is essentially a time attack mode with increased difficulty may give the game a bit more life however any game, no matter how awesome is hard to recommend when it has such a short lifespan. This is either a rental or wait until there is a sale on Steam unless you are a die hard MoH fan.
There were also a few little funky glitches here and there like when one of my teammates getting stuck on a tree near the location of an air strike. He was one tough mofo to survive that but for the most part the game was quite polished.
I am going to be a bit more forgiving in my final score since I am not sure what kids today consider hip when it comes to this genre. For someone who likes their games to have a storyline instead of just senseless killing and for someone who is not looking for a full blown simulator this may be just what someone needs to kill off an evening or two.
It gets an 80% but beware. You're only in for a fun 5 or 6 hour ride. Enjoy it while it lasts. I did.
Thanks to Rob and Techgage for the key.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Views: 5
How old are you? have you made anyzine? id like to learn to but i cant even spell right toright this i asked my best freind but i didnot go much to schools at home
star blanket river child said:It wasn't until he announced he was leaving did I see anything (mildly) offensive. I can see why that would have affirmed his decision- to be honest, I wasn't that nice myself. (Though, a lot nicer than most of the crap you get on the internet.) I don't often let my temper get the better of me, especially towards strangers online, but I took offense to him painting us all with the same (in my opinion, wrong) brush, especially after I think everyone had been awfully mature towards his "99% of zines suck" comment.
anyway, I'm over it. maybe he'll cool down and come back, I wouldn't mind.
Oops. Hope I haven't stirred up another hornets nest.
Amber: I can remember at least 3 times over the years, not on this forum, but others, where I've left thoughtful comments and they never showed up. I'm pretty sure it was because what I wrote what they didn't want to read. When I write something, it can be a bit of a mental workout. I often feel a little "spent" afterwards, even on my WMZ posts. Sometimes, I might look up, and a good 45 minutes might have passed when I've finally written, proofread, and edited it. So it's a bummer to see that time and effort wasted when, by accident or design, my message suddenly disappears.
There was a website recently that had some sort of forum where anybody could "edit" anybody else's post, apparently patterned after the "add and pass on" practice in mail art. There was so little activity there it never really got to be an issue before the site eventually went defunct---it may have been hacked into and sabatoged----but I just didn't get the point of it. But then, there are a lot of new practices on the Net and the zine world that are new to me, and maybe I just have to accept them.
Anyway, I'm not blaming anybody for Mikael's hasty and impulsive departure. I just thought we had enough common ground to explore some important issues and maybe take some steps toward trying some solutions.
Nice poem, Tim.

Young Arsenal striker Philip Roberts has joined Inverness Caledonian Thistle on loan until January 2013.
The 18-year-old joined the Gunners from Norwich in summer 2010 after impressing while on trial with the Club.
In his first season, the Newham-born attacker made 11 starts for the Under-18s, scoring four goals. Last year, his consistent performances for Steve Bould's side earned him a call-up to the reserves, where he scored a debut goal against Wolves.
A Republic of Ireland youth international, Philip is known for his strength and ability to bring others into the game. He is also a very capable finisher and proved this last campaign when topping the scoring charts with 10 goals for the Under-18s.
Everyone at Arsenal Football Club wishes Philip the best of luck during his time with Terry Butcher's team.
Meanwhile, the Scottish side have signed former Gunner George Brislen-Hall, released by the Gunners this summer.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

Our Own Private Hollywood
None of us are deceived about appearances... except our own
Most everyone (87 percent among young women) is convinced that people do judge us by our looks. The ELLE Generation woman gives herself a median score of 7 on the 10-point Bo Derek (you oldsters remember her) scale of attractiveness (the figure is almost identical for 25-year-old guys), and fewer than 10 percent think their looks are below average. Congratulations on an amazing feat of visual prestidigitation, ladies and gentleman!
More than ever, dating is a matter of feast or famine—and plenty of us are going hungry
There are still a lot of romantics out there: A quarter of today's 25-year-old women have been felled by love at first sight—as have fully a third of their male counterparts. But the experience doesn't always take: 88 percent of presently unattached females say it's difficult to find someone they'd like to date—and 76 percent of men agree. Wow—that's just sad! Around 20 years ago, a Virginia Slims/Roper survey found 73 percent of women and 57 percent of men feeling so frustrated. Looking further afield, about one in eight young women and men report having had a relationship with someone 15 or more years older. And there's a great yearning behind these numbers: Among both sexes, 7 in 10 believe they will need a life partner to be truly happy. But only 15 percent of young women are casually dating one or more people—while a quarter of them aren't currently dating at all. (The rest are in a relationship.) And here we thought the Internet would be so helpful! 31 percent of young women and men report having engaged in Internet dating; around a quarter of them have dealt with a breakup via text, IM, or e-mail; and more than a third of them have "sexted" nude or risqué photos of themselves to someone.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - With a 10-4 upset against #1 Notre Dame in the Konica Minolta Big City Classic, the #7 Syracuse men's lacrosse team clinches a share of the regular season BIG EAST Title for the third time in four years. With the victory, the Orange (11-3, 5-1 BIG EAST) will be the second seed in the 2013 BIG EAST Tournament and will rematch Notre Dame, the three-seed, on Thursday, May 2, at 7 p.m. The tournament is hosted by Villanova.
Dylan Donahue had a career-high four points (3-1) against the Irish. All of his points came during the Orange's game-changing 6-0 run in the fourth quarter.
After heading into the fourth quarter tied, 4-4, Kevin Rice took advantage of a man-up opportunity, tallying a goal 26 seconds into the frame. His strike sparked the Orange's 6-0 run which included two assists from Rice and goals from Donahue, Hakeem Lecky and Scott Loy. Donahue scored three straight-goals, spanning from 12:24 to 4:43.
The win was the Orange's fifth against a top-10 opponent this season. SU went undefeated, 5-0, against top nationally ranked opponents in 2013. Syracuse outshot Notre Dame, 32-24, and edged them in ground balls, 29-19. GoaltenderDominic Lamolinara registered six saves for the Orange.
Play was even on both sides for the first three quarters of the game. After a scoreless first quarter, Notre Dame's Ryan Foley broke the 0-0 tie at 11:04 in the second quarter, giving the Irish its first lead of the night, 1-0.
Lecky scored his first of the night to tie the game right back up at 1-1 after he fired a shot from 10 yards out from the right side.
Two straight goals in the winding minutes of second quarter, gave the Irish a 3-1 advantage heading into halftime.
The Orange used a 3-0 run out of the locker room to take its first lead of the game, 4-3, just 4:31 into the third quarter. Matt Walters started the run with a man-up goal only 12 seconds into the first half off of an assist from Derek DeJoe. JoJo Marasco and Henry Schoonmaker each contributed goals during the run as well.
The Irish evened up the score, 4-4, after Matt Kavanagh scored his second strike of the night before the end of the third frame.
NOTES: With the win, the Orange clinch a share of the BIG EAST regular season title for the third time in four years … SU will be the #2 seed in the 2013 BIG EAST Tournament, hosted by Villanova … The Orange will face #3 seed Notre Dame on Thursday, at 7 p.m. in the semifinals … SU wraps up the 2013 regular season 5-0 against top-10 opponents … Dylan Donahue had a career-high four points (3-1) against the Irish … Kevin Rice's (1-3) three assist tied his career-high … The Orange are now 6-1 all-time against Notre Dame, including 3-0 in neutral-site games.

LOLWUT moments at the field
Posted 04 March 2011 - 10:48 AM
Posted 04 March 2011 - 02:08 PM
I shoot twice, both break on one kid (woops)
the kid that WASN'T hit called himself out
the kid that WAS hit, sees the hits on his chest, looks at me, lays down on the ground, and empties an entire hopper on the bunker about 10 feet away from me.
One second I'm walking. Next, grenade hits me. It was thrown from my side. It didn't explode. Kid comes up later to me and gets mad that I "didn't save it for him"
I pulled a Mike, filled up with a new proto pod and "wtf... sticker?"
On a particularly cold day, I shot two balls and I saw both balls confetti, so I thought "shit... either a barrel break or a chop"... take off the barrel, it's spotless on the inside... breach is spotless. 0_0

later during the games, we were playing zombies. headshots only and you have to walk. we were shooting spectrum that was hard as rocks. i was at the left 45 and i saw a kid back right in the open. i still had half my paint left so i unloaded. i've never saw anyone squirm so much. it was so funny. i never did hit him in the head, but after a few seconds i ran out of paint. i sat there laughing for the rest of the game.
it makes me feel good to shoot people in thier feel goods
ANYONE can hide behind a rope of paint... yea... you're not that good

This happens all the time at my field. For some reason, all the rentals think they have to stand behind the gate, and they're all too scared to move, so they just stay there. But one time one of our experienced tourny players just stood behind the deadbox and screamed at the top of his lungs spraying the entire field at ballsack level.

even better. when a rental is playing behind the deadbox, then the people that get out still go behind it and some ballsy renter on the other team tried to bunker that one guy that is still in and unloads on all of them.

Rental Player: WOAH!! Dude what kinda gun is that?
Me: It's a spyder mr-1
Rental: That's sick dude it has like a double trigger!
Me: Yea
Rental: It's like a machine gun or something! That's amazing! How much did it cost?
Me: Like $80 or $90
and the rental player was awestruck because of my apparently "awesome" gun which is about as good as the rental guns there. LOLWUT little kids...

The dude flips out at the ref. Starts yelling that I was "goin' full auto" (I was semi, capped at 12bps, wasn't shooting more than 4-5bps) and that I hit him 5 times in the mask (you could see that I had obviously got him once). One of the other rentals had shot him in the ass as I got him in the mask, and said so. The guy yelled that the rental was full of crap, yelled at everyone but me. He wouldn't play another game that I was playing for the rest of the day. Every time someone asked, and I was playing, he was cleaning his marker or resting. I thought it was hilarious. I don't know if it had anything to do with what I did, but I didn't hear him yell at his son the rest of the day. LOLWUT... jerk.

When I first started playing, maybe the third or fourth time, there was a dad and his kid and what appeared to be the kid's friend (not sure. He did have red hair) and both kids are about 10-11. So the dad and his son play throughout the day. The dad obviously had some military experience and the kid was pretty good as well (for an 11 year old)... the other kid though... kept talking SHIT the ENTIRE day (to the point where the dad even yelled at him to quit cussing) about how he kept getting headshots and how he bought a special pack (one of those valken two-podders on a clip belt) that "gives him slight of hand pro"... using one of those JT helmets, what looked like a spyder that fell off the top and hit every branch of the ugly tree, and just some pants and a sweater. The odd thing was though, he was completely spotless, and I never saw him fill his pods or hopper in staging either...
So come halfway through the day, during one game when he was on the opposite side, I got around behind their base so I thought "eh I'll barrel tag this little bastard". By very back, I mean I was touching the mesh fence of the field, and I start going up through their base slowly, and walking maybe ten yards I hear "I SURRENDER DON'T SHOOT". I'm sure you can guess who it was sitting down, behind me. So that was the first lolwut.
The second, was at the end of the day, when they started letting people play speedball. (Now, I am not making any of this up, I can assure you).
So the last game was me and my buddies on one side and the dad and two kids and another guy on the other. I get up to where I can see the kid, crouching down literally kissing the bunker he was so close, and my friend went up the snake and shot him. It hit him in the shin.
He screamed SO loud, stood up, opened up his hopper and threw the gun on the ground, emptied out his two pods on the ground, ripped off his mask, and walked off the field.
You think that ^ other dad yelled at his kid... OH LORDY

No question they have a stand/rest setup so there is no way a finger or hand twitch will move it off target. It might even be a hands-free job that eliminates all human error.
Did you test your accuracy from a rest or just free hand?
Blame will always fall on shooter first. Were your misses grouped or all over the place? Are your other guns single action or shorter trigger pull?
Good groups point to barrel or sight issues, spray pattern points to shooter generally.

Any good Gene Hackman movies to watch tonight?
posted at 2:36 pm on October 31, 2012 by Ed Morrissey
I'm suddenly in the mood for one:
Sgt. Andrea Dobyns told Albuquerque ABC affiliate KOAT-TV,"Our officers got a call from a homeless male who said he's just been beat up by Gene Hackman. This male got up in his face, assaulted him."
Police determined it was an act of self-defense, after speaking with both Becker and Hackman.
Dobyns explanined to KOAT-TV, "Mr. Hackman did slap the homeless male across the face."
"This homeless male actually assaulted him and his wife, put him in fear for his life and his wife's life," Dobyns continued.
Don't get too excited Hackman fans. Dobyns described Hackman's blow "more like a slap than a punch". Hackman isn't that much of a bad ass.
At 82? That's bad-ass enough for me — and Hackman had a real reputation as a brawler during his early years in Hollywood, too. He may have let the other man off the hook.
Of course, I don't endorse violence as a response to rudeness, and we should settle our disputes reasonably and rationally. That being said … anyone up for The French Connection tonight? The Package? Company Men? How about … Unforgiven?

LHC Sends Supersymmetry "To the Hospital" By Observing Bizarre Meson Decay

Physicists may need new theories to explain how dark matter works
Supersymmetry, or SUSY for short, has been a popular physics theory used to explain away quirks in the Standard Model. But recent findings from
's Large Hadron Collider cast serious doubts on traditional SUSY theory, sending physicists back to the drawing board.
I. Dark Matter -- Does SUSY Offer an Explanation?
When it comes to SUSY, the theory began with a fundamental question -- why were galaxies spinning so fast?
Physicists in the 1900s began to predict the mass of galaxies based on the light of stars within. What they found was surprising -- the galaxies were spinning faster than they would be if merely adhering to a vanilla version of the Standard Model.
So physicists theorized that the galaxies contained large amounts of so-called "
dark matter
". This type of matter is thought to behave in fundamentally different ways from standard matter. The question facing physicists was how
dark matter behave; physicists sought to solve that question with the theory of super-symmetry, a theory which grew increasingly popular in the particle physics world over the years, spawning several variants.
SUSY is a leading theory to explain the existence of dark matter. [Image Source: NASA]
Under one version of the theory -- the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model or MSSM for short -- physicists Howard Georgi (Harvard University) and Savas Dimopoulos (Stanford University) proposed that dark matter consisted of super-particles of masses between 100 GeV and 1 TeV.
The question was how to observe the presence or lack of these high-energy super-particles. At the time (the 1980s), no particle collider was powerful and sensitive enough to create and detect such pairs. Then the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) came along.
II. Signs Point to Many SUSY Models Being Flat-Out Wrong
While the LHC is best known for the
Higgs boson hunt
(scientists currently
think they
have observed signs
of this much-sought-after particle), the LHC is powerful enough to probe other major unconfirmed physics theories.
SUSY is a perfect example.
The LHC has seven built in particle detectors. These include flashy detectors like ATLAS and CMS, which have been used in the Higgs boson hunt.
Many popular version of SUSY predict that the "strange" B-meson -- a short-lived 0.5 TeV (in mass) particle that oscillates between a matter and antimater state -- will decay to muons at a far greater rate than the extremely low rate predicted by the vanilla Standard Model. The source of this shift stems from decay loops such as the chargino and Charged Higgs boson, which SUSY predicts [
] will enhance muon decay rates, by about an order of magnitude.
But it turns out the decay was not as frequent as SUSY expected.
Bs mu-mu decays occur less frequently than SUSY generally predicts. [Image Source: CERN]
Most detectors failed to observe that kind of decay at all. And when the LHCb detector finally did spot it, it estimated that only three out of every billion decay results in muon production.
III. Door Opens to New Theories
This at first blush seems an intuitive conclusion -- it would indeed seem odd that the mid-size meson would produce the relatively massive muons on a frequent basis. But the result does raise major questions -- if SUSY is wrong, what is dark matter made of?
An important thing to note is that while CERN physicists say the new data "squeezes" super-symmetry models, it does not say it invalidates all of them. For example the so-called AKM model -- theorized by professors Ambrosanio, Kane, Kribs, Martin and Mrenna -- appears to encompass the results in its fringe reaches.
As Prof. Chris Parkes
describes to
BBC News
, "Supersymmetry may not be dead but these latest results have certainly put it into hospital."
The observation pushes SUSY to its fringes, raising questions of its validity.
[Image Source: CERN]
Even if the AKM model can accomodate the new results, the fact that they blow up many alternate SUSY models (most of which have over 100 fittable parameters) opens the door to fundamentally different solutions than SUSY to try to explain away symmetry violations.
In other words, the possible fall of SUSY sets the stage for a renaissance of new theory, the kind that equally delights physicists and gives the average member of the public at large a painful headache.

Here a couple of quick pics of the pistol grip. I use poplar wood for mastering odd-shaped parts. Hopefully by the weekend, I should have a completed pistol grip, with trigger and butt-plate.
looking good, what are you using for the barrel?
Haven't decided on that yet. I'd love to use metal tubing, but I'm not equipped to machine metal. So, forming the vented muzzle from bar stock just isn't possible (yet).
Most likely, I'll use EMT pipe to form the barrel master, then mold it in resin. Alclad paint works well for simulating a metal finish, so it will look better than it sounds . . .
The slow, tedious process of shaping the radius of the grips . . .
The grinding continues . . .
The left side is mostly done. I gave it a heavy shot of gray primer and some buffing to fill in the wood grain. The right side still needs a lot of shaping. There's a .25" filler piece that goes between them.
Did I say I'd have the pistol grip together by the weekend? Shows what I know . . .
Do you have a lathe? that would help all to much with the barrel. By the way, are you using a dremel or a router for the edges? I made a westar (not completely screen acurate because I drew up my own diagram) literaly a couple of days ago using a router. And I'm extremely happy because I made it out of one solid piece of wood which will make it easy to mold if I ever get the money/find someone who is waiting to do it/wait till I go through collage and have a job to pay for some molding supplies.
I might post some pics of it latter if you don't mind.
Regarding 'film accuracy', I don't sweat it too much. A lot of film props are built quickly on a tight budget. That's true of ALL movies. They look good for a few seconds on screen, but when you get a good look, they appear unfinished or under-detailed. So If you want to use some creative license, I say do it. I'm actually planning some 'gunsmith modified' Westar variants, when this build is finished.
If you want to show off your own Westar pics on this thread, go right ahead. Me casa, su casa.
I wasn't happy with the pieces, so I scrapped them and started over. Here's the handgrip as of right now. It still needs a lot of sanding to shape it up, and the 'window' obviously hasn't been cut out yet.
Progress is slow, but steady. The butt-plate piece is just a test fit, the final piece will be cast separately.
Looks good so far, Try and keep the faith with it though ... Its pretty demoralizing when all these people look at your WIP and only a few of us reply.
You thought about wood dowel and bondo to shape the barrel?
I've thought about wood dowel, metal tubing, PVC pipe . . . when I have a closer look at the measurements, I'll have a better idea of what I'm doing. I'll probably try a couple different things before it looks right.
Now's a good time to mention I'm using these blueprints, posted by wizardofflight about a year and a half ago.
They're excellent. I wouldn't have attempted this without'em.
Alans plans are great, I made my Jodo helmet from his lid plans
Here's a very rough cut of the buttplate. Much sanding it still needs . . .
I've put a lot of work into contouring the buttplate, but it isn't exactly 'movie accurate'. I think the piece looks good as is. I need your opinions: Should I go with it, or redo it?
Also, I recontoured the trigger/guard piece to move the trigger out further, and the trigger guard is smaller to allow more room for my finger. Please tell me how it looks.
In the photos, I had to use a green Lego to prop up the buttplate, and the handgrip and trigger guard need more sanding to make everything smooth and flush. Please ignore that.
I've restarted this thread in the 'Jango Fett' section:
Jango Fett was a character from a movie called 'Star Wars'. Nowhere near as cool as 'Iron Man 2', but still . . . take a look at it if you get the chance . . .
Lookin' good. What you said about rush made movie props. You're so right. The lightsabers were made out of flash guns from cameras. And about the lathe. Someone I know got an old quite usable, workable lathe with some chisels for 400-500 bucks. Old tools might be less pretty and slightly lee functional around the workplace but whatever works, works.
Happy crafting.

Drivers' license fees may jump to $100 under new law
(7/20/06 - AUSTIN, TX) - Texans applying for or renewing drivers' licenses could pay much higher fees -- and wait in longer lines -- once a federal law standardizing them takes effect in 2008. That's what a state lawmaker says.
Texas fees could jump to more than 100 dollars from the current 24 when the federal government begins requiring states to issue uniform drivers' licenses. That's according to state Senator Leticia Van De Putte, a Democrat from San Antonio.
The change also would eliminate online and mail renewals. It will require renewing motorists to produce Social Security cards and birth certificates in person at Department of Public Safety offices.
Van De Putte got briefed on the new state-issued, federally approved licenses because next month she will become president of the National Conference of State Legislatures.
While she supports many provisions in the anti-terrorism I-D legislation Congress passed last year, she takes issue with who will pay for it.
A DPS spokeswoman says the agency would not confirm cost estimates because it is still analyzing them.

Patagonia® clothing pollutes. We've not been shy in admitting that manufacturing clothing impacts the environment. But rather than resigning ourselves to this fact, we've found inspiration in it. Inspiration to innovate, to find new solutions to long-standing problems, to test, refine, research and bring to market new materials and processes that reduce our effect on the environment. These efforts have resulted in our use of post-consumer recycled Synchilla® fleece, organic cotton and lower impact dyes.
We recently faced a new challenge: whether to join with another company in bringing to market a new product that looks great, functions well and is made from renewable materials. Sounds great, doesn't it? In our quest to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, in this case petroleum-based synthetics, we put a whole lot of effort into researching and testing clothing made from polylactic acid (PLA).
PLA is a plastic made from plants. The process begins with a plant high in sugar content. The only economically viable raw material today is corn, but theoretically, PLA could be made from other high-sugar crops such as sugar beets or yucca. The process is fairly simple: harvest the crop, process it to yield sugar, ferment the sugar into lactic acid. The company that makes PLA then converts the lactic acid molecules to plastic in a proprietary process. The resulting plastic can then be made into all sorts of stuff – packaging, textiles, office furniture, etc.
Pursuing PLA as a product option fit perfectly into our core purpose: to use business to inspire and implement solutions to the environmental crisis. At first, we could barely contain our excitement about the promise of PLA. Over the course of a few years, we had worked to get closer and closer to a polyester-like fabric that, when compared to petroleum-based polyester, uses less energy to produce, performs and functions well, looks great and is compostable. It seemed almost too good to be true.
Unfortunately, it was. While today's PLA meets many of our environmental, quality and performance criteria, it fails a critical one. It's made from genetically engineered materials. PLA is made from corn, and while the percentage changes with current market fluctuations, today roughly 30% of corn grown in the U.S. is genetically engineered. As of this writing, all of us know too little about how genetically engineered agricultural organisms impact human, wildlife and ecosystem health to assume their use will result in an environmental improvement (see "The Magic Door," by Bill McKibben).
Like any technology, genetic engineering can be used wisely or irresponsibly. The use of genetically engineered organisms and enzymes in laboratory and metabolic processes seems to safely improve productivity, lower costs and reduce pollution from industrial factories in a closed, controlled environment. The release of genetically engineered organisms into the wild, on the other hand, is taking place in the absence of adequate testing and regulatory measures and is therefore not something we support.
Because genetically engineered corn is the current raw material used for PLA, and studies have shown unintended, negative environmental impacts from GE corn, we cannot responsibly embrace PLA until we can guarantee a GE-free source of raw material. We have invested a significant amount of time, research, and even hope in PLA. We worked rigorously and closely with the company that developed PLA to find an organic source of dextrose, or corn sugar, in order to ensure that no genetically engineered corn went into the original material. Unfortunately, we came up short because dextrose, as a commodity product, is processed in massive quantities. Within the current agricultural infrastructure, no source separates conventional or genetically engineered corn from organic corn at the processing plant to guarantee a GE-free source of dextrose.
Our decision not to introduce PLA into our product line was the result of many difficult, even painful, discussions. We revisited our core purpose often. Our conclusion: Releasing into the environment and using inadequately tested, genetically engineered organisms is not a solution to the environmental crisis.
We hope to be able to offer you functional, high-quality and environmentally sound, plant-derived polyester-like products in the near future. Until then, we hope you agree that it's wise to err on the side of caution when pursuing a technology that may irrevocably alter the balance of life. We will continue to search for an economically viable, GE-free source of dextrose. Until we find it, we will continue to assess our impacts and make innovative choices based on known quantities and qualities.

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > Can Female Leaders Mitigate Negative Effects of Diversity?: The Case of National Leaders
Katherine Phillips, Professor of Management, Columbia
Business School
Ethnic diversity can have negative effects, increasing the potential for perceived inequities, negative conflict, and communication difficulties in groups and organizations that can lead to negative performance outcomes. Consistent with these findings political economists have also shown that ethnic fractionalization, essentially a measure of country-level diversity, undermines GDP growth of a country. Mitigating these negative effects of diversity at all levels is critical and research on leadership and gender differences suggests that female leaders may be in a unique position to help manage the difficulties that can accompany diversity. We use a multi-methods research approach to examine the perceived and actual influence of male and female national leaders in countries characterized by more or less ethnic fractionalization. We first examine people's perceptions of male and female country leaders and how well they might fit as leaders of ethnically fractionalized countries. Two studies with national adult samples indicate that female candidates were perceived to be more effective leaders than male candidates when the country had high ethnic diversity but not significantly so when there was low ethnic diversity. Female leaders were expected to improve perceived ethnic inequities and the economic situation of the country better than male presidents. Evidence of moderated mediation was found suggesting that a fit of female leadership strengths to the particular needs of highly diverse environments account for expected improvements in country-level economics. Using a unique dataset we also analyzed over 10,000 leader-year observations in 188 countries over a 55-year period and found that countries characterized by higher ethnic fractionalization and greater difficulty to lead (a country level indicator) had greater GDP growth when they had female rather than male leaders. While causation is not possible to prove, the results suggest countries that have high ethnic fractionalization and difficulty to lead scores stand to uniquely benefit from female leadership. Implications for understanding the intersection of gender and ethnic diversity in complex environments are discussed.

Nelson, O'Brien Earn Wins as Phoenix Falls Twice
By: Ryan Hartwig (@RyanHartwig)
MILWAUKEE (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay women's tennis team (0-3) dropped a pair of matches over the weekend, falling 5-2 to IUPUI in Chicago on Saturday before suffering a 7-0 loss to Marquette on Sunday at the Helfaer Tennis Stadium in Milwaukee.
Senior Rebecca Nelson (Brookfield, Wis.) and freshman Eleanor O'Brien (Northfield, Minn.) both picked up singles wins for the Phoenix against IUPUI on Saturday, as Nelson defeated Rachael Bridegroom 6-2, 6-0 at No. 4 and O'Brien downed Jaclyn Hyman 7-5, 6-1 at No. 6.
"Nelson has added more topspin to her baseline game," Green Bay head coach Sara Schubring said. "Her ground stroke consistency has picked up and her transition game was flawless in singles."
In doubles action, the freshman duo of Stephanie Londre (Burlington, Wis.) and Rachael Menos (Appleton, Wis.) secured a win at No. 3 against the Jaguars' pair of Hyman and Jesika Bays 8-2.
On Sunday at Marquette, the Golden Eagles won all three doubles contests to secure the doubles point before sweeping the six singles matches in straight sets. Senior Maria Anderson (Marshfield, Wis.) put up a strong fight for the Phoenix at No. 3 singles, but ultimately fell 7-6 (5), 6-3 to Aleeza Kanner.
Green Bay returns to action on Saturday, Feb. 16 when it hosts the University of Chicago for its first home meet of 2013 at Western Racquet and Fitness Center.

It's about the end of the season for "best of" lists. A recent New York Times Book Review had a different twist on "best of." Their focus was a year end summary of titles that appeared on their weekly bestsellers lists. I share a few of their observations that I found particularly interesting:
KPL staff have blogged about many of the titles on the NYT lists and they are all in our collection.
Come visit soon. If these titles aren't on the shelf, put them on "hold" so you are on the waiting list. Staff can help if you aren't familiar with that process.

Well my bud, Keith at Century came through for me again,,,an all matching 1931 hex,laminated, looks un- rearsaneled,,,OH YA!! When ever he says something's running good ,,I can believe him, he's a straight shooter! He'll tell ya when somethings not so good too,a good guy!
Super greasy but it looks great and all the original proof marks still stand proud on the edges so this might be another one that hadn't been touched. I may have lucked out again!! :thumbup1:
You can see by the forearm it looks like it was only assembled once and hasn't been redone. and it looks like it just got a coat of varnish slathered on when it was last inspected ,repacked and stored away. I'll have to tear it down all the way to know for sure but it sure looks that way so far. It don't have any signs of being redone. Bolt don't have the "rough wire brush" look to it like a re-arsanal one does either and the receiver is nicely machined and smooth blued with the early cuts at the back. 100% matching # other than the bayo, but it does have the correct prewar bayo with it though, even if it doesn't match #.
Ya Got to love that for $189, and it's the best looking Hex that I've seen in quite a bit besides. Wish it was a Tula though. But Still very nice. Mossin collection's complete, at least for the ones I'd want, just the Russian made ones. From the 38 - 91's I now have all matching # and pristine ones that all appear to be unissued now! Been working on that one for a bit!!
I just did a quick wipe off with paper towels just to get the gunk off and snap a couple pics, but it sure looks like a good one so far! The chamber and barrel are packed full and you can barely see through it, just a glow of light and grease!! I'll clean it up thoroughly after supper.
All is well on the Eastern Front,,,,,

We make thousands of spa covers every month and most are straight forward, but there are a few each month which always keep on our toes.
This was one of those spa covers, because when the specs are very tight- due to waterfalls, custom rock designs, and plus being over-sized, it's critical to get it right the first time.
The client was kind enough to send a picture back and let us know how happy they are with their new hot tub cover.
Hi Drake,
Just wanted to thank you guys for a great job on the spa cover. I was a little nervous about it properly fitting my custom sized spa, but as you can see from the picture, it turned out perfect. I hope you guys keep the template on file in case I would need to reorder another cover in the future (hopefully many years from now). Thanks again for your help and for making this process relatively pain-free.

1. John Storer House: $6.9 million
Located on Hollywood Boulevard, this is one of Wright's four Southern California textile block houses. The architect built the house in 1923 for John Storer, a surgeon from Wisconsin who pursued a career in real estate after failing his medical license exam. Storer then moved out only five years later.
2. Alice Millard House/La Miniatura: $3.995 million
La Miniatura is one of Wright's earliest Usonian designs and the first of his textile block houses. "I would rather have built this little house than St. Peter's in Rome," the architect supposedly once said about the Pasadena, Calif.–property. Built in 1923, Wright was originally commissioned to build the house by book dealer Alice Millard for $17,000. It can be yours now for quite a bit more than that.
3. Cooke House: $3.75 million
One of three Wright-designed houses in Virginia, the Cooke House features the solar hemicycle shape that the architect was known for. The original owners, Andrew and Maude Cooke, wroteweaetxdyvaydzcwq Wright in 1951, asking him to design their dream house in Virginia Beach. He drew a rendering in 1953 and delivered plans in 1957, but construction did not begin until 1959, two weeks before Wright's death.
4. Buehler House: $3.35 million
Built in Orinda, Calif., in 1948 for Maynard and Katherine Buehler, this house features the Usonian design and many Wright-designed furniture pieces. The grounds feature a Japanese garden landscape that were designed by landscape architect Henry Matsutani.
5. Isidore H. Heller House: $2.43 million
Located in Chicago's Hyde Park, this 1897 house is a departure from the ornamented style of his boss Louis Sullivan, and is an early introduction to Wright's future Prairie-style houses. Some say this is one of the first residences to look have a "Wright look."

I have tried the life sentence but I haven't used the short drop. Im looking to upgrade from my Foiles, being a MN boy and i think Cory is a pretty good guy I figured I would give one a try. Any suggestions? If so please explain!

Theo Walcott has dedicated Arsenal's thrilling FA Cup win to the Club's fans - and he admits it was slightly overdue.
Arsène Wenger's side have endured a difficult start to 2012 and some home supporters voiced their concerns after Aston Villa surged into a 2-0 half-time lead in Sunday's fourth-round tie.
But the mood was transformed after a goal from Walcott and two penalties from Robin van Persie turned the match on its head in just seven second-half minutes.
"That was for the fans," said Walcott afterwards. "They have waited a long time for a great result and we gave them that on Sunday.
"Obviously the fans are entitled to their opinion and we wanted to do it for them in the second half because we weren't good enough [in the first].
"When you are at home you do not want to go 2-0 down, even if it was against the run of play. Villa took their goals well. On the set piece maybe we could have done better, but we are into the hat and we are looking forward to Sunderland or Middlesbrough."
By his own admission Walcott has not been at his best in recent weeks. However, the England international insists that he is his own harshest critic and is working hard to rediscover his best form.
"I just want to play my game and show people what I can do," he said. "I am the best judge of my performance, not anyone else. I wasn't happy with my last few games but hopefully now I can try to get back to a level I should be at.
"I think it was a good thing that it was the FA Cup [on Sunday], it's totally different to the Premier League. I think we needed a slight break.
"It's a cup competition that we can win, a couple of big teams have gone out in the early stages and if we can come from 2-0 down, hopefully we can beat anybody now. Hopefully we can just show the fans and our team-mates that everyone is ready now and that we can win this."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

The other day, President Obama said the future of Africa was in the hands of Africans, but what happens when Africans ignore the realities of 21st century life? Rates of HIV infections among gays in many African countries are 10 times those of the general male population. Most experts on the issue blame fear of being stigmatized as gay as well as poverty and lack of ready access to doctors for this figure. A wall of silence, repression, and discrimination face anyone who admits to being a gay or lesbian which compels many to accept illness to the shame of being exposed for their sexual beliefs. A recent story in Lancet notes, "unprotected anal sex is commonplace, knowledge and access to appropriate risk prevention measures are inadequate."
Hopefully, the Bush era of refusing to support providing condoms and other health measures will assist many males to obtain access to what they must use while engaged in sex. However, personal feelings of shame will not go away until their individual societies begin to make changes.
