North Carolina has an all-time high of 17 former Tar Heels playing in the NBA this season, many of whom are playing key roles with a variety of teams. GoHeels.com will update Carolina fans on a weekly basis on how UNC alums have played in the last week.
Harrison Barnes, Golden State Warriors: Barnes combined for 17 points, nine rebounds and three assists in his last three games. The Warriors won each contest, defeating the Phoenix Suns, San Antonio Spurs and Minnesota Timberwolves.
Vince Carter, Dallas Mavericks: Facing the New Orleans Hornets, Carter went 5-of-7 from beyond the arc to contribute to his 22-point total. He added nine rebounds, two assists and two steals as the Mavericks went on to win, 104-100. The previous game, the veteran logged 14 points and eight assists to help defeat the Orlando Magic.
Ed Davis, Memphis Grizzlies: Davis had his highest scoring game with the Grizzlies Feb. 19 as his team took on the Detroit Pistons. The forward recorded 14 points with four rebounds and four blocks. Later in the week, he notched 10 points and two blocks in the narrow victory over the Magic.
Wayne Ellington, Cleveland Cavaliers: Ellington's most notable performance last week came against the Magic when the fourth year guard shot 60 percent from the field for 15 points along with four rebounds. The Cavaliers bested the Magic, 118-94.
Raymond Felton, New York Knicks: Felton totaled 36 points, 10 assists and seven rebounds across the Knicks' last three games. His team triumphed over the Philadelphia 76ers, but fell to the Toronto Raptors and Indiana Pacers.
Danny Green, San Antonio Spurs: Green had a couple of big games last week. Versus the Warriors, he had 20 points, four rebounds and two assists. Prior to that performance, the guard/forward was all over the court tallying 15 points, seven assists, three rebounds, two blocks and two steals as the Spurs overpowered the L.A. Clippers.
Tyler Hansbrough, Indiana Pacers: Like classic Hansbrough, the forward/center earned the majority of his points getting to the foul line last week. Over three games, he amassed 26 points, 14 of which came from free throws. The Pacers won out, defeating the Knicks then the Pistons twice.
Brendan Haywood, Charlotte Bobcats: Haywood continues to be a force on the board for the Bobcats, but is struggling to produce offensively. He pulled down five rebounds in each of the Bobcats' last three games, but only recorded two points. The Bobcats could not manage a win, falling to the Pistons, Chicago Bulls and Denver Nuggets.
John Henson, Milwaukee Bucks: The rookie's best game last week was facing the Atlanta Hawks. Henson had 11 points with six rebounds, but the Bucks dropped the contest by one.

Ty Lawson, Denver Nuggets: Lawson has scored 20 or more points in eight of his last 10 games. He earned his seventh double-double of the season as the point guard logged 27 points and 12 assists (12-2 assist-to-turnover ratio) against the Washington Wizards.
Kendall Marshall, Phoenix Suns: Marshall contributed seven points and seven assists in his last three games, but the Suns failed to come up with a win.
Jerry Stackhouse, Brooklyn Nets: Suffering from a stiff neck, Stackhouse has not played since Jan. 26. His status remains day-to-day.
Rasheed Wallace, New York Knicks: Wallace is still nursing a stress reaction and chronic condition in his left foot. The forward/center has not played since Dec. 13.
Marvin Williams, Utah Jazz: Versus the Warriors, Williams shot 50 percent from three-point land and totaled 11 points. The Jazz won, 115-101.
Brandan Wright, Dallas Mavericks: Wright had eight points and eight rebounds in the win over the Magic. Facing the Lakers, he scored six points and grabbed just one rebound.
Tyler Zeller, Cleveland Cavaliers: Zeller had two double-digit scoring games last week. He logged 10 points in the victory over the Hornets. In the following contest with the Magic, the rookie recorded 16 points and seven rebounds.

Confused about carbs, need help!
I've searched this forum quite a bit and I think I have a basic understanding of carbs. My confusion comes from several sources of conflicting information so I'll give all the information I can about my truck and hopefully you guys can help me figure out what changes I need to make.
I have a '61 chevy short wide that is my daily driver right now but fairly soon will be driven on the street mostly and will see a few runs down the strip several times a year during the summer months. I live in Oregon so that should give me about 4 months a year to play around, so I want it to be streetable and good fun down the strip too.
It has a 12 bolt truck open rear end with 3.08 gears, a TH350 with stage 2 shift kit and 2300 stall. I just bought my boss' old race motor and this is where it gets fun. It's a 350 bored .030 over, flat top 4 relief pistons, forged crank, h-beam rods, 2.02/1.60 valves, 1.6:1 high tensil stamped rockers, Weiand Team G single plane air gap manifold, hei dizzy with MSD module, high output coil, no vacuum advance and the lightest springs available on the centrifigul adv. so it gets full adv. right off idle, I think he said total timing was 30deg. at 3500rpm? 10.5:1 CR and the cam is a summit k1108 (specs below)
RPM Range3,400-7,000
Duration at 050 inch Lift: 244 int./254 exh
Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.508 int./0.533 exh.
Lobe Separation (degrees): 114
Camshaft Manufacturers Description: Rough idle, excellent high-end horsepower. Needs 10.5:1 and higher compression, 3,500+ stall, and gearing. 350+ c.i.d., bracket race cam.
He says this motor ran 450HP at 6200RPM on the Dyno with some kind of carb style fuel injection system which did not come with the motor so I need to figure out what carb will work on this motor for my application (described above) without changing anything except mayme my stall and rear end. Which brings me to another question (perhaps for another thread)?
I have a corporate 8.5" 10 bolt out of a 79 camaro with 2.41 posi that I was thinking of putting under the truck but I don't think it would hold up with that gear ratio and nobody makes a 3.08 or 3.73 gear set for the series 2 carrier so I don't know if I should change get a series 3 carrier and gear set for that rear end or for the truck 12 bolt, and will the 3.08 12 bolt open rear get me by until I save up the money for the propper rear end solution?
Thanks in advance for all help. You guys are a great wealth of knowlege and I'm somewhat new to the technical aspects of hot rodding though I do have a basic grasp on what will generally make things go faster or slower.
Confused about carbs
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong,you only need about a 750cfm carb with vacuum secondaries ,my personal preference is a Holley because of the ease of making quick adjustments.You might run into trouble with running a single plane intake with street cruising.You might also consider going with a bigger stall.I'm not sure what your truck weighs,but I would get some shorter gears and bump the stall to al least 3500 and go with a dual plane intake and a 750 cfm carb.You also want to run a vacuum advance.Hope this helps and ill be glad to try and help with your set up as much as I can
I too would use a form of 750 CFM carb. I like holleys.You could also use a quadra jet
The truck weighs about 3250lbs. Could I get away with 3000 stall and the 3.08 gears? I know I don't want to get the stall too low for the cam but I don't want to have to get too far into the pedal before the truck starts to move either. I'm used to my 2300 and even it seems a bit high for the factory spec cam that's in the 350 that's in the truck now.
All CR figured w/a zero deck/0.041" head gasket:
76cc heads, unmilled decks = about 9.1:1 compression ratio. Milled down to 70cc, will be about 9.7:1.
64cc heads will get you enough, just under 10.4:1, and all the CR you can use w/iron heads, if not too much.
IMO that's just too much cam unless you bring the rest of the engine in line w/it (correct CR, sufficient valve spring pressure, a higher stall converter and lower rear gears).
A 3310 could work OK, or a double pumper (650 to 750) once the stall/gears are dealt with.
The distributor needs to be set up w/a lot of initial timing and a limited amount of mechanical advance. You can use a vacuum advance limited to 10 degrees, hooked to a ported vacuum source.
The 8.5 corporate rear end is strong, but the bearings ride on the axles and are often worn and need replaced. If that's the case, upgrade the rearend to a 30 spline limited slip differential (Eaton is often recommended) and axles to match. It would be better if you posted this on the Trans/Rearend forum...
Edit- my usual calculator is misbehaving, had to edit the results.

I think the question relating to carbs does belong here.Cobalt,Im certainly not arguing with you as you know the respect I have for your knowledge.
Its just that my opinion is: The carb fits the engine not the gear ratio. The engine is built for a purpose and the driveline is built for a purpose,not because of the others parts short comings.
good example is myself; I use a 3.50 gear ratio because that is what the car needs to perform what I want(not drag racing) My engine has a big cam that a lot of people would say"you should have 4.56 gears for that cam"
4.56 gears would not suit my purpose at all.
so I say,imo,a 750 ish cfm carb is a good choice for that engine.
Will that truck make a fast pass at the drags?
different question
3000 stall speed and 3.08 = a big disappointment. The stall you can get by with but the rear gear will make the acceleration poor.
U can use this for your 373 gear in a 2 series carrier.. Mr. Gasket Ring Gear Spacers 908A - SummitRacing.com
...not the strongest, but I used a spacer in my G-body wagon with a stick and fairly healthy 355 after I broke the stock gear, and the new one lived and I'm hard on my junk.
At 60 MPH,in my car,using a 950 double pumper,I can yard the secondaries wfo with out bog or hesitation.In fifth gear my over all gear ratio is 2.87.
I have 5 gears so it makes more sense to go down a gear and use 1/2 throttle.
just saying,if the carb works,it should work at all RPMs
I honestly have no idea about the heads. The story I was given is " There's an old circle track guy in the Denver Co. area that built these heads for all the circle track guys within at least a couple hundred mile radius, about 15-20 years ago. He wouldn't divulge his source for the bare heads. They have no casting #'s and never did. they weren't ground off, they were never there." My boss had this motor in his 41 willy's, which I rode in, and it ran strong. I can't say it ran right because as I said I'm new to the technical stuff, but it ran strong. He did say that when he first built the motor he had an 850cfm Demon carb that was setup by a performance shop on the car and kept sucking the fuel bowls dry, under what conditions I don't know. He also said it has very little vacuum which creates a problem for my power brakes but I can get an electric vacuum pump for that. Seems there's alot of heresay but I do know it's a strong motor in great shape. If I put my 600cfm edelbrock on there, will it run? I have a Q-Jet on my other 350, but it could use a rebuild. Would it get me by?
The 600 will work,not a perfect match.You can get a vacuum canister for your brakes. Try that before you buy a vacuum pump. Low vacuum on my car mostly bothers the head lights,brakes work ok as I keep the revs up if Im sport driving.When driving in traffic I notice a firmer pedal. I g
Confused about carbs, need help.
The best way to go would be to buy an Eaton 3series carrrier, Motive 373 ring and Pinion. The GM corporate (big 10) rear is just as heavy duty as that 12 bolt. Get the 30 spline carrier and a pair of moser axles. A Hughes GM40 stall converter will help that cam shaft you have. Try a Holley or Demon 750 DP carburetor with that Victor JR. intake.

One of my ole gals is finally taken to broodiness. Buff Orpington. I haven't candled all the eggs under her, but hopefully I can slip some that are good to go. Its been years since I have had a hen hatch chicks (I was a kid). Kinda excited. We'll see what we get, Rooster is a Brown Leghorn. David
DavidL. Silkies, nice birds too. But they are quite small, I would think that they would not set on many eggs? Do you know how many? I would love to know. Have that most wonderful and awesomely great day, life, health. Cindi
a few years ago I had about 50 buff orpingtons and have never seen such a brood lot of birds. I have 12 nest boxes and there was times when 3/4 would be full of fluffed up old hens. I switch to Isa browns and have never had a broody bird since
I had 2 Buff roosters also. The king was very friendly but the other one alittle smaller was mean. One day he attacked me from behind and he learned very quickly just where on the pecking order he stood but I really had to watch small children around him. My hens also hatch out quite a few chicks. One day I came home from work and they were all dead but 1. She sat on a nest hidden behind the hen house door being broody and never moved while 2 huskies killed the rest

A court in the city of Diyarbakir sentenced Kurdish poltician Leyla Zana to two years in jail for praising Abduallah Ocalan, jailed leader of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party(PKK). She was sentecned under a law that penalizes "propaganda of a terrorist organization." Zana has already spent nearly a generation for working with the PKK. The court decision was made due to a speech she made in March, 2007, at the Nevruz(coming of Spring) festival in Diyarbakr where she was with Iraq President Jalal Talabani and Massoud Barzani, president of the semi-autonomous Kurdistan administration in northern Iraq. She mentioned their names along with that of Ocalan in saying, "I am grateful to those three leaders.. They all have a place in the hearts and minds of the Kurds."
The action of putting in prison a person for speaking at a festival will not be well received by the European Union which expects its members to respect the right of free speech. Ms. Zana has already been recognized by the European Parliament in presenting her its Sakharov human rights award.

As part of one of California's oldest winemaking families, Cheryl has been in the wine industry since she was a little girl, doing odd jobs at the winery and in the vineyards with her siblings and cousins. Today, that group of hard working kids represents the current leadership of DFV Wines: the third generation of the family owned and operated vineyards and wineries.
Originally built on the hard work of patriarch Gasparé Indelicato, the company went from farming grapes to making its first vintage of wine in 1935 after Prohibition ended. "We have such a strong family tradition with wine, and that's important to me," Cheryl explains. "My grandfather, Gasparé, learned winemaking from his father. And my Dad and his brothers learned it from Gasparé. I knew I would work toward continuing that legacy."
Although Cheryl grew up working at the winery, her parents insisted that all of "Generation Three" graduate from college and gather outside experience by working elsewhere for at least three years before coming back to the family business. Taking this sage advice, she earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business in 1989 from California State University, Stanislaus and a Registered Nursing degree in 1985.
It did not take long for Cheryl to return to the winery. Launching her official career in 1990, she worked in various facets of the business; from sales and marketing to human resources to public relations and is now proprietor for HandCraft wines.
HandCraft wines provide Cheryl with the opportunity to recreate the fruit forward, delicious wines that she remembered on the family table when she was growing up. A dash of Italian varietals are added to the final wine blends and the result is simply delicious. It's what makes HandCraft wines easy to enjoy, distinctive and memorable. View all HandCraft Wines
About Other California
California has nearly 100 American Viticulture Areas (AVAs) and accounts for almost 90% of wine production in the United States. In our section of Other California, we include wines from smaller AVAs as well as wines from the California AVA. Here are a few smaller AVAs you may see on the label:
Livermore Valley AVA, located right outside of San Francisco and home to wineries such as Wente.
Lodi County AVA, an AVA further east of San Francisco and known for its excellent, old-vine Zinfandels.
San Francisco Bay AVA, a sprawling AVA that covers Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz counties, to name a few. Wine that holds only the California AVA is typically a wine that includes grapes from a number of different AVAs, which leads to the general labeling of the wine as California. This does not denote the quality of the wine, only the diversity of where the grapes originate.
About California
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Driving to work in May one morning, I was greeted with the CHECK COOLANT LEVEL message on the DIC. After monitoring my cold coolant level in the tank for about a week, I definitively concluded that my coolant level sensor was bad. As a result, I ordered a surge tank and replaced it (along with the coolant) the second weekend of August. Here's how I did it, with pictures!
Make sure the car has been sitting for awhile. This allows you to get to things without frying your hands.
First, remove the plastic shroud atop the radiator frame. This will allow access to the radiator petcock.
Thus you are at this point:
If you have baseball mitt hands like yours truly, you can get to the petcock easily this way. Reaching down on the right side of the fan (as seen here) allows access to the petcock. To make it easier to loosen, try and power wash the lower driver's side corner of the radiator to remove any possible gunk on the petcock.
Drain the coolant. What I found useful is to start the engine and rev it gently. This helps remove the coolant without baking the engine. After about a minute, turn the car off. Use a shop vac to remove the rest of the coolant, because it will not drain completely on its own.
Next, remove the battery. This gives you access to the surge tank.
You will need to lossen bolts at the following locations:
Connecting the surge tank to the right front fender:
Connecting the surge tank to the right side of the engine bay:
The top feed into the surge tank:
And the drain out the bottom of the tank:
http://i1268.photobucket.com/albums/...e/Photo495.jpg (This is pretty much right below the top feed in).
Furthermore, there is a brace that holds the a/c compressor to the surge tank. You will need to remove two bolts on the front side of the tank. These are right in front of the compressor.
Lastly, as you pull the tank up, be sure to remember to disconnect the coolant level sensor wire.
Assembly is the reverse of taking it apart.
Now that you have everything buttoned up, let's get some coolant back in her and get her back on the road!
What I fould helpful is to get a 5 gallon bucket for mixing. This gives you all kinds of room to do so. Once you have your brew formulated, use a funnel to pour the mix into the coolant bottles. Makes filling the tank WAAAAAY easier.
Use whatever coolant you like in a mix between 50-50 and 70-30 (coolant to DISTILLED water, respectively). Distilled water ensures that you don't gunk up your system, and the ratio range ensures proper protection.
FWIW, I used a 67-33 DexCool to distilled water ratio.
Fill the surge tank to about half full.
PER FSM: start engine and cycle engine speed from idle to 3000 RPM and back. Do this 5 times. Chances are you'll get the CHECK COOLANT LEVEL as the coolant circulates and purges air from the system. Fill the tank back to half and repeat as necessary. I only had to do it twice IIRC.
If you just want to change your coolant, follow the instructions on removing the old stuff and getting new stuff in there. Worked well for me, but feel free to modify as you see fit.
Congratulations! You have replaced the surge tank and/or coolant!

'Lake Summit'
Meeting will seek input regarding cleanliness, safety of Sunrise Lake
By JOHN QUINN
Union Leader Correspondent | August 25. 2013 9:04PM
A community meeting for year-round and seasonal residents has been scheduled to discuss Sunrise Lake in Middleton. (JOHN QUINN/Union Leader Correspondent)
The first Sunrise Lake Summit will be held Aug. 31 from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the Old Town Hall along King's Highway.
"Sunrise Lake is a major resource to the Town of Middleton and we need to continue as a community to keep it as clean and safe for all. Although our lake is in pretty good shape we do have some issues that we need to address," Mullen wrote in an e-mail invitation.
Louise Bourdeau, who moved to South Carolina but summers on Fox Road, said she'd be interested in listening to how fellow property owners and visitors plan to protect the lake — especially cleaning up the diapers, empty bait containers and trash they found at the fishing site.
On Friday, she enjoyed watching her grandsons, Robert Mitchell, 6, and his brother, Matthew Savoie, 9, both of Farmington, fish along Route 153. They all had concerns about keeping the lake safe for all.
During town meeting in March, residents overwhelmingly agreed to add $10,000 to the fund to fight exotic weed growth while accepting $2,400 in grant money. This money paid to treat the water and for divers to remove invasive plants this summer.
After state Department of Environmental Services officials used global positioning systems to locate the "Milfoil hotspots" Monday, Mullen said divers will return to focus on those areas in the end of September.
Mullen said some residents are concerned about how some boaters operate dangerously or drive too fast around the shallow lake which is full of kayaks, swimmers and rocks.

Operational complexity within IT is increasing. BYOD, IaaS, PaaS, even consumer-level cloud-based services are rolling in the door, and IT has to effectively manage everything from legacy mainframes and traditional multi-tier application servers to ad hoc systems and personally owned mobile devices, while having less control over the environment and endpoints than ever.
At the same time, tolerance for downtime is decreasing, the cost of service slowdowns and interruptions is increasing, and the resources dedicated to manage the entire, complex, heterogeneous environment are flat at best. You don't have to have a crystal ball to see that this is a recipe for disaster.

I just reread the old man and the boy(the old man's boy grows older) by Robert Ruark.
He describes a hunting trip he did with his grandfather when he was a boy. A beautiful tale of waterfowl hunting, fishing, Jambalaya, oysters and clams.
I have some fine duck hunting here in Holland but that tale makes me wanna come over there and try my hand at some Cajun style hunting? Especially as I've still got my first pintail drake to shoot!
Where would you guys recommend me to go?

It was Friday the 13th, 1988. The last bell rang at Meadow View Elementary School and fourth-grade students Robin "Jill" Williams and Patty Nunnallee were the last two students in the classroom.
"I had to chase them out of the classroom that afternoon," said Martha Lloyd, the girls' teacher. "They wanted to tell me so much about going to King's Island. 'We're going to do this. We're going to do this. We're going to do this.' I said, 'Girls. Girls, you've got to go. You've got to get on the bus. You can tell me all about it on Monday.'"
Lloyd never got to hear about their trip to the theme park.
What the teacher remembers most about the days immediately following the Carrollton bus crash is the silence that hung over Radcliff, she said.
"You didn't hear people out talking," the former Hardin County Schools teacher said. "It was quiet. I think it was just utter shock. How does a town handle something that big?"
Radcliff City Councilman Jacob Pearman, whose brother John was killed in the crash, said by all standards, the bus crash is the worst tragedy ever to happen to the community and it always will be a part of the town's history.
He said the immediate impact was a "tremendous outpouring of love and support."
"It was just a time of the community coming together for the families," said Pearman, whose daughter, Cheryl, 14, was injured in the wreck and fire.
Residents remember the tragedy each year in May, he said.
"It's a reminder to us of the tragedies of drinking and driving," Pearman said.
Faye Atcher, who was principal at Meadow View at the time of the bus crash, said the wreck was an "eye opener," especially for the students connected to it.
"It made a lasting impact on those kids, I know, as far as drinking and driving," Atcher said. "It stayed at the forefront of the drunken driving issue.
"(The bus crash) will forever impact the community," Atcher said. "I don't see it ever going away."
Radcliff always will be tied to the crash, Lloyd said.
"It happened (in Carroll County)," she said, "but this is where the impact was. We had to live with it. We have to live every day. You still see it."
On May 16, 1988, school resumed. Lloyd said her students knew about Patty, but they didn't realize another classmate was be missing.
"They did not know about Jill because the news media had called her Robin," Lloyd recalled. "They did not know that was her first name. All (the children) knew was Jill, so I had to tell them we had lost Jill, too."
Another of Lloyd's students lost a sister, she said. In addition, Atcher said many of the students lost friends from other schools and softball teammates.
"Everywhere you looked, it was bad," Atcher said. "You know, trying to explain something like that, you can't do it. It's so horrific."
Grief counselors were made available, the former principal said, and the fourth-grade students made a book that was placed in the library. A plaque was put up at the front of the school and Lloyd planted a tree for Jill and Patty.
Lloyd said she was a veteran teacher of 15 years at that point in her 27-year career, but no one taught her how to handle an event like that with her students.
"A fourth-grader, sure, their grandparents die, but they're old," she said. "They're not used to somebody their own age dying."
For Lloyd, she said Monday, May 16, 1988, never came.
"So, as I've told a lot of people, if I make it to heaven, my goal is to see my girls," she said, "and I know they're going to be there. And I'm going to get to hear about King's Island."

The American labor organization, Solidarity Center, funded by the AFL-CIO, issued a report which blasted the Thailand shrimp industry for its abuse of workers in the industry. Thailand is the world's largest exporter of schrimp, and in its interviews with Thai workers, the American labor institute discovered workers are forced to put in long hours, are paid very low wages, are abused by employers, and the unsafe and unhealthy working conditions pose a threat to human life. The report also expressed concern about overuse of antibiotics, use pf pesticides, and the impact of shrimp production on local turtle populations.
Wal-Mart is among the biggest importers of shrimp from Thailand and its spokesperson insists the Thai shrimp industry meets high standards. Perhaps, a trip to Thailand might be in order for Wal-Mart officials to check out first hand what is gong on.


text: I have a 990 that is giving me all kinds of problems right from the get go. I sent it back once, and it came back worst than when I sent it. let a local Smith check it out and he got it to work for about 100 rounds. Now its back with Taurus. The problem is it will shoot about 7 out of the 9 rounds then jam up to the point you have to pull back on the hammer and spin the cylinder at the same time. If I had to do it over again I would have paid more for something better. As with a .22 you are going to want a good one, my thinking as you will shoot it much more than a large caliper gun. I was expecting to shoot a brick at a time. I have maybe 500 rounds total nursing it along.Good thing I have a ruger mark 2, or i'd have no .22 to shoot. The real kicker is Taurus prices aren't really cheap anymore I think dealer cost on a 941 is around $309. by the time dealer makes a few bucks and state gets there cut your at easy $350-375. Thats a good piece of change for a plinking gun. just my 2 cents. good luck!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I'm not diagnosed yet but I like being alone.
|Introvert here.
about making things a non event. every time we pass a loud truck or a lawn mower or whatever makes my dog uncomfortable I go back and try working with him around it.
It's not working, he's still avoiding.
so making it non event is the way to go? and that will stop them from being uncomfortable?
Wow thanks for all the great responses everyone! I especially appreciate the distinction made between needing to interact and needing to be exposed. I feel a lot better knowing that, as I do make quite an effort to expose Summer to a variety of new places, sounds, environments, etc. I've opted to be very selective in her interactions with other dogs -- I figure having little direct socialization is preferable to having bad socialization experiences. And Carmspack and Castlemaid you are especially right about how I should react when she seems skittish of a person on the street. I think perhaps in my eagerness to make sure she grows up to be a confident dog, I've probably been overthinking it a bit
I'm glad to know there are so many other introvert GSD lovers out there! This is my first time raising a dog in a major metropolitan area (I grew up in the sticks) and I've found that when I'm out with Summer, people are either REALLY friendly and want to pet her or REALLY rude and either shoot me dirty looks or tell me to keep her away. Of course, neither situation is ideal for an introvert But we get by and still enjoy our walks and training sessions.
Excellent advise and right on the nose by everyone!!! I can beat all the introverts here, I'm high-functioning autistic. I also live out of town in a quiet rural area with almost no traffic. When raising a young dog, as everyone else did, I made the extra effort to take my dogs out to different places - I never considered it important for them to migle with people (they are outgoing and friendly anyways), but I did consider it important that they get exposed to as many new places and experiences as possible, even if it was just to drive to a residential area for a leash walk. Now they get exposed to people, other dogs, bikes, cars, buses, skate-boards, etc . . .
Be careful of your own energy - you have to communicate that everyhing is normal, and you are in control. A five month old should NOT have to feel that it is theri job to protect you, and your demeanor and attitude should be clear on that - your pup needs to know that you will protect her, that you will not put her in a situation that is unsafe, and that she can just relax and take in the world. You communicate this by being a stronger leader, having more rules, more expectations, more confidence, more predictability. If she reacts in a fearful way to something, laugh it off, or act like this is the most boring thing in the world - can't even spare a moment of your time being worried or afraid, and neither should Summer.
For about the first year of having my dogs, I would plan on daily/weekly socialization trips: out to the ski hill to watch the skiers and snowboarders, to the riding arean to sit in the bleachers and watch the horses being worked. Walk in to the hockey ring and watch the kids having hockey practice. Walking downtown. Hanging out at the horse-shoe pitch, or the skateboard park, etc . . . It was an effort, but seeing my dogs just watch and decide that all this stuff is normal was well worth it.
button up said "Today, she sort of backed away from a mom walking with her little girl who was maybe 5 years old. Usually when she does this, I tell her it's ok,"
keep on moving as if nothing is wrong . Don't tell her it's okay , which may be unintentionally rewarding her , giving your approval , which will lead to promoting an enhanced (unwanted) response "but today, she barked and frightened the little girl."
show her by your actions what you think of meeting an adult and young child on your walk . It is nothing threatening . All good and normal . So keep on walking without telegraphing a reason for hesitation , suspicion , threat .
|Sent you a PM.
I'm also an introvert. I took him to a group training class. There was not a lot of talking/socializing I had to do. I focused on my dog, but he got around other dogs and people. We also went to dog club for IPO. He got to be around a variety of GSD's of different ages.
Other than that, there are the vet trips, the pet store or lowes trips.
I don't have my dog interact with people or other dogs. I just wanted to make sure he was not reactive around them.
|Puppy just has to be exposed, not interact. Strip malls, outside grocery stores, parking lots are good places if you find a spot out of the way where pup can watch. It's the interacting that does me in.
Well, I am very much an introvert, too My shepherd has helped me to get out more to parks and other places because I have him for company. I have a unique situation in that I live on a "dead end" street in a downtown area and I have cedar fencing in back and 4 ft. chain link in front.
It is like a train station in front of my downtown house! I am literally 5 houses from McDonalds, Taco Bell, Subway, and Dominos pizza. My road dead ends into the back side of these fast food restaurants. All manner of people walk, skate board, roller blade, run, bike, etc. right in front of my house all day long and at 11 pm, etc. going to and from. Screaming kids, families, strollers, homeless, teenagers of all types, disabled in electric chairs, etc.
So as an introvert, it has been wonderful for my boy AND me. I have a fabulous covered porch all across the front of my house so I can sit comfortably while a parade goes by. My guy takes it all in stride.

The Art of Communication:Trial by Fire - September 11, 2001
The most shocking and difficult day during my time as Counselor to the President was full of communications challenges, from delivering a live briefing to the nation to preparing for a presidential prime time address. Information was frequently wrong and often conflicting. Internal communications were poor and at one point, operators could not reach President Bush. We'll discuss the day and its lessons as a window into the personal and professional challenges that face government communicators.

ruger mk III
Ruger single six hands down !
Browning Buck Mark is fantastic and a good deal for the money. You can't go wrong with one.
MKIII It will out shoot you good price,good gun,great fun
Alright that gives me a place to start! Thanks
those three cover the best
you gotta determine barrel length sights and feel of your hand
if those are too expensive the american herritage is the way to go - these are SA
So you want to buy a quality .22 pistol?
These are the 5 most common target style .22 pistols out there,,,
Any one of these 5 will give you many years of excellent performance.
I've not listed them in any order of preference.
Browning Buckmark = Great pistol but I found the grip to be funky.
Ruger 22/45 Mk II or MK III = Great pistol with a 1911-ish grip.
Beretta U22 NEOS = Great pistol with a very slender grip.
Ruger Mk II or MK III = Great pistol with a luger-ish grip.
S&W 22A = Great pistol with a very fat grip.
Any of these will serve you very well,,,
They are all reliable firearms that aren't ammo picky,,,
Rather than sweat over which one is better, get the one that fits your hand.
For those who want a non-target style DA/SA .22 pistol,,,
That is a reliable shooter but at an affordable cost,,,
There are two that consistently get great reviews:
Bersa Thunder 22 or the Firestorm 22,,,
Virtually identical pistols made by the same company,,,
These pistols are very similar in size and shape to a Walther PPK.
Two other pistols I will mention out of fairness to their brand names,,,
The Sig-Sauer Mosquito and the Walther P-22 are pistols that get very mixed reviews,,,
People who own them either absolutely love them or adamantly hate them.
The main concern of these guns is that the slides may (and sometimes do) crack under normal use,,,
Both have slides made of Zamak which is a Zinc alloy,,,
Commonly called "pot metal" or other bad names,,,
I can not verify or deny these assertions.
Then there are the high-end (high dollar) models.
CZ-75B Kadet - With the exception of the Kadet having adjustable rear sights,,,
It is virtually identical to the CZ-75B in 9mm.
Sig-Sauer Classic .22 - There are 3 models to choose from,,,
They start as a full frame .22 semi-auto that is convertible to their centerfire counterpart using what Sig calls the X-Change Kit,,,
They are the only production pistols that are designed to convert up to a centerfire pistol.
Beretta 87 - The .22 counterpart to the Beretta 84/85 in .380 ACP.
Last but not least are the .22 Mouse Guns.
Phoenix HP-22
A small inexpensive .22 pistol that people either love or hate,,,
The main gripe is too many California lawyer features,,,
The little pistol has too many safeties.
The Taurus PLY.
A very small semi-suto pistol with a polymer frame,,,
It is based on their Model 22B Beretta copy,,,
Very lightweight and easy to shoot,,,
It has a very nice grip.
I own, shoot regularly, and give a personal recommendation to these .22 pistols,,,
These six are all reliable shooters that aren't ammo picky (for me) at all.
Bersa Thunder 22,
Beretta Model 87,
CZ-75B Kadet,
Beretta NEOS,
Ruger 22/45,
Taurus PLY.
I also own a Phoenix HP-22,,,
It quit working after 150 rounds,,,
Two trips back to the plant in California.
As far as a functioning pistol goes, Mine is a very cute paper-weight.
I hope this helps,,,
I'm also a fan of the Ruger single six. However I'm very pleased with my Phoenix Arms HP22. The only issue is that it likes standard velocity rounds (as stated in the instruction manual). Also with the HP22, if you have a screwdriver, metal nips, and five minutes, you can take care of the "too many safeties" issue stated above. Check youtube for that one. :)
since my earlier post i have spent a lot of time doing more research
yea i want a 617 and/or the sig 1911-22 but
i have chosen the ruger 22/45 5.5" bull barrel
my other short list was the S&W 22a, same price, but several people advised the ruger over it
also the buckmark was on the short list but it is $95 more
Phoenix HP-22, Is junk. I got the 25 cal for my kid. Mail it to Mike the owner, For jamming. I get it back,Still jams,But now the arm for the trigger keep coming off. So they mail me a new one,With the handle plate.
So I call him back over the jamming of this new HP25, And he is telling me that,We are holding the pistol with one hand.Ok If your think that. I just told him it's ok this junk was for my kid that is 8,To get to know how to shoot a pistol.And the cost was 149.00. But I did tell him everyone will know from me you pistols are junk. And they are.
So I went back to my gun store,Let them know about it. And turn it in for a Walther P22 Pistol - Carbon Fiber Finish. Looks just like the pk380, My little girl loves it. P22 is one of the best looking 22cal out there. Barrel on p22 is 3.4,And not like most are at 5.5. 5.5 Way to long. To me that 5.5 barrel makes the pistol look funny. Like a toy look. p22 to me is the best one out there in a 22cal.
Model: P22
Caliber: .22LR
Capacity: 10 Rounds
Length: 6.3" / 16.0 cm
Height: 4.5" / 11.4 cm
Frame Width: 1.1" / 2.8 cm
Barrel Length: 3.4" / 8.6 cm
Sight Radius: 5.3" / 13.5 cm
Weight (No Mag.): 15.1 oz. / 428.1 g
Standard Mag. Weight: 1.8 oz. / 51.0 g
Action: SA/DA
Trigger Pull: 4 lbs. / 11 lbs.
Ruger MK series or Browning Buckmark. Probably the best value out there. I have a Ruger MK3 (thanks for asking ;) ) You can spend more or less depending on what you want, but these are very popular and often recommended for a number of reasons.
Price- they hit that Goldilocks price point, not to much, not too cheap.
Quality- I suppose it's possible to wear them out. If you succeed, you will have more than gotten your money's worth out of them.
variety- Each is available in any number of configurations, mild to wild. Then there is the aftermarket...
Customer support- Ruger has a good reputation in this regard. I've not heard about Browning having a lot of problems (Not a lot of help, I know, sorry.)
The BuckMark camper is excellent, if you want a target pistol. If you just want a 22 plinker a Bersa T22 is great and has a excellent price. See Buds Guns. They will ship to your LSG. You can also check Bersa at the Bersa Chat and get a lot of feed back from Bersa pistol owners.
To teach my little girl and she is 8,It is very small for little hands. My bg380 was to much for her to hold for now. A lot of people keep telling me to get the hp22 hp25. It's life,I payed a low price for it.Thats what I get. but my friends Paul the owner,Was cool about taking it back, And taking off 125.00 bucks off the p22 for me..But I have picked up many pistols from his store to.
So he looks out for me. But for me to know pistols, I was dumb for picking it up.She like it to much.And my kid looked at so many that day over 10 to 12 pistol that day.And the hp25 is what she drive me up the wall over.
I have my kid in the NRA 4-H,She shoots a air arms rifle.177. And she ask me to teach her about pistols. If you need to know why I did it.
If you was me,I was on the phone with the owner mike, Over this hp25. And it my be a good pistol,And I just got a bad one. But he put a new slider on it to. And telling me he fires the pistol be for he mailed it back to me. I got to the range, I fried it 3 times,Back to the same thing. The pistol been fried by me 43 times.
I keep hearing him tell me it is how we hold the pistol. Omy... So I told him,So when I was in the navy,I was never told that ? And I all so teach 4-h kids,And I teach JMIC – JROTC Marksmanship Instructor Course. And I did know how to shoot a pistol. He did not know what to say anymore. So I just said,I'm junking the pistol. My bad for buying a low cost pistol. And life go's on. Have a good day.Ted
4mo's ago I picked up the 380 on sale for 279.99. Shooters is a nice store.And now they are back to 319.99
i stand corrected on the price of the walther and wait patiently for the answer as to why you bought the $100 pistol?
Well I just returned home for my local gun dealer with a brand new Ruger MKIII 60th anniversary model (375.00). Can't wait:smt082 to get to the range tomorrow. Thank you, to all who gave their input! Mike
i have a ruger single six that is a beautiful and extremeley accurate gun. I love it, and in my personal opinion its hard to beat. I also have a smith and wesson 22a and for the price of that gun it is also hard to beat. For well under 300 bucks out the door the smith is the way to go. My father in law has a ruger mk111 hunter i think is the model??? it has a fluted barrel and is an absolutely beautiful peice! It was a little more pricey but i would love to have a gun like his.

Hi everyone
I realise this is a pretty inexhaustive topic but I am very confused by the visa situation. From what I have read getting a work permit/visa before you go is very difficult unless you have a job offer from a reputable company (who may also help you out with it) and even then the red tape appears to be very long indeed. But this is still the official line. But most people who work in SE Asia (from what I can tell) arrive on a tourist visa and simply work on that which makes sense to me. Yet in Thailand and China I hear they are cracking down on this - in thailand by reducing the visa allowance from one month to 15 days when issued at a land border.
Can someone please help me out here and let me know what the common practice is. Is it possible to arrange work permits in-country? Doing a visa run every 2 weeks sounds like a huge amount of hassle and expense - how do current teachers get round this? And what is the situation re: visas for people (I believe the majority) who do not have awork permit before they arrive in their country of choice?
Many thanks

Gosh, we're in December now and well....I have not resolved much of anything with this rifle in all this time. A lot of personal matters kept me away from it, but now I can deal with it.
Accu-Mount Cantilever -- WAY TOO HIGH
Basically -- eldogg to answer your question first -- I'm going to pull off the scope and the cantilever portion of the Accumount. It is simply too high -- way too high up and you can see this in the photos I have attached. If I plant my cheek firmly on that stock -- and that's with the 1/2-inch cheek piece -- the scope almost 2 inches above my eye! How I even got 5-inch groups at 300 yd -- even with a bench rest -- is a miracle.
This is not to say Accumount is a bad product -- just don't use the cantilever.
No Drill and Tap, No New Stocks, No Barrel Clamp Mounts
So, with the cantilever and scope off, I'll leave the underlying scout mount. I'm not going to drill and tap this rifle, because that job involves a lot more than drilling and tapping. It means destroying and rebuilding the bolt, and modifying the safety. I could use an ATI stock, but look at the wood on this. No way. And the ATI barrel clamp mount requires modifying the wood. I'm not doing that.
So...with the underlying scout mount, it's either going to be an Aimpoint Comp C3 2 MOA red dot, or a 2-7 pistol/scout scope.
Aimpoint or Scout Scope?
I'm leaning toward the Aimpoint right now, because a friend experienced with the pistol scopes told me they always shoot off center -- high and to the left and you have to compensate all the time. A 2-MOA dot is 6 inches at 300 yd. Fed. 170 grain drops 22 inches at 300 with a 100-yd. zero. So 3 - 4 "dots" above center with the Aimpoint should get me centered.
A really good pistol scope -- not the junk brands like BSA and NC Star, but something halfway decent -- like a Bushnell costs up to $300. If I'm going to have to drop that kind of money, I might as well go for the Aimpoint. It will fit the mount and stay low to the mount. I can pull that blasted cheek piece off. I can mash my cheek into the stock because the Aimpoint does not change focus, parallax, etc. like a scope does. As long as I can see the dot, I'm in business.
So, that's what I'm leaning toward now. As for the scope, I bought QD rings and when my FAL finally arrives (yep, I'm still waiting for that), the scope will go on the QD rings and get plopped on the FAL. Ultimately, I might get an M1A and move the scope to that, then put an EOTech with Mako 7x magnifier on the FAL, but that's later on.

Football historian LEIGH EDWARDS profiles every Arsenal player from 60 post-war League seasons.
Inspirational central defender and captain Tony Adams gained 66 England caps whilst at Arsenal. Signing professional at Highbury in January 1984, he featured prominently as the Gunners won the Littlewoods Cup in 1987 and League Championship in 1988/89 and 1990/91. He also starred as Arsenal won the FA Cup and Coca-Cola Cup in 1993 and the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1994 as well as the 'double' in 1997/98 and 2001/02, netting 32 goals in 504 League games until retiring after his testimonial match against Celtic in May 2002.
After managing Wycombe Wanderers, he is now Portsmouth's assistant-boss.
Skilful inside-forward Colin Addison featured in Arsenal's 1967/68 League Cup run. Initially with York City, he moved to Nottingham Forest for £12,000 in January 1961 and topped their goalscoring charts on three occasions. Bertie Mee paid £45,000 for him in September 1966 and he netted nine goals in 30 First Division games for Arsenal before being sold to Sheffield United for £40,000 in November 1967.

Togo international striker Emmanuel Adebayor is a current member of Arsenal's squad. Starting with hometown Lome, he joined Metz in July 2001 and was an influential figure as they regained French top-flight status at the first attempt in 2002/03. He moved to Monaco in July 2003 and played for them in the UEFA Champions League before Arsène Wenger bought him from his former club in January 2006. Scoring on his Premiership debut in Arsenal's 2-0 win at Birmingham City the following month, he has now netted four times in 14 Premiership games and played for his country in this summer's World Cup.
French U-21 striker Jeremie Aliadiere featured in Arsenal's record-breaking 2003/04 Premiership title campaign. A former scholar at Highbury, he turned professional in April 2000 and helped the Gunners win the FA Youth Cup in 2000/01. He made his Premiership debut in Arsenal's 4-1 victory at home to Fulham in February 2002 and gained further top-flight experience before suffering a knee injury in the 2004 FA Community Shield win over Manchester United that sidelined him for much of that season. Loaned to Celtic, West Ham and Wolves last season.
Versatile winger Ian Allinson scored in Arsenal's 1986/87 Littlewoods Cup semi-final replay win over Spurs. Signing professional for Colchester United in October 1975, he starred in their 1976/77 promotion triumph and was twice leading marksman, moving to Highbury in August 1983. He netted 16 goals in 83 First Division games for Arsenal prior to joining Stoke City in June 1987. Moving to Luton Town four months later, he helped them reach the FA Cup semi-finals and Simod Cup final in 1987/88. He briefly rejoined Colchester, then managed Baldock and Stotfold and is now Boreham Wood's director of football.
Spanish 'keeper Manuel Almunia replaced the red-carded Jens Lehmann in Arsenal's goal during the 2006 UEFA Champions League final. Initially with Osasuna B, he played for Cartagonova and Sabadell prior to joining Celta Vigo in June 2001. He was loaned to Eibar, Recreativo and Albacete before moving to Arsenal for £500,000 in July 2004 and made his Premiership debut in the 3-0 win over Birmingham City five months later. Starting 11 consecutive games before losing out to Lehmann again, he starred in that season's FA Cup fifth round replay win at Sheffield United and gained an FA Cup winner's medal in 2005.
Republic of Ireland U-21 midfielder Kwame Ampadu briefly sampled top-flight football with Arsenal. Signing professional at Highbury in November 1988, he made his First Division debut as a substitute in Arsenal's 3-1 victory at Derby County in February 1990 and also appeared in the 1-0 win over Everton a week later. He was sold to West Brom for £50,000 in June 1991 and helped them win promotion in 1992/93. Moving to Swansea City for £15,000 in February 1994, he featured in their 1994 Autoglass Trophy final triumph and has since played for Leyton Orient, Exeter City, Newport County and now Tiverton.
England Youth winger Terry Anderson played for Arsenal in the first game televised on Match of the Day in August 1964. Signing professional at Highbury in August 1961, he made his League debut in Arsenal's 4-0 victory at West Ham in March 1963 and netted six goals in 26 First Division games prior to joining Norwich City for £15,000 in February 1965. He helped them win the Second Division title in 1971/72 and reach the League Cup final in 1972/73, then played for Baltimore Comets in the NASL, Scunthorpe, Crewe and Colchester. He ran the Castle Hotel in Caister but was tragically found drowned in January 1980.
England international right-back Viv Anderson was capped 16 times whilst at Highbury. Signing professional for Nottingham Forest in August 1974, he starred as Brian Clough's side won promotion in 1976/77, the League Championship and League Cup in 1977/78 and European Cup in two consecutive seasons. He joined Arsenal for £250,000 in July 1984 and scored nine times in 120 First Division games, helping to win the Littlewoods Cup shortly before moving to Manchester United for £250,000 in May 1987. Later with Sheffield Wednesday and Barnsley, he then assisted Bryan Robson at Middlesbrough.
Teenage French international striker Nicolas Anelka featured prominently in Arsenal's 1997/98 'double' success. Initially with Paris St Germain, he moved to Highbury in March 1997 and scored in the 1998 FA Cup final. He netted 23 goals in 65 Premiership games for the Gunners before joining Real Madrid for a reported £22,900,000 in August 1999. After returning to Paris St Germain a year later, he was loaned to Liverpool in December 2001 and helped them finish Premiership runners-up that season. He joined Manchester City for £7,000,000 in July 2002 and moved to Fenerbahce for £10,000,000 in January 2005.
Long-serving England U-23 winger 'Geordie' Armstrong was ever-present in Arsenal's 1970/71 'double' success. Signing professional at Highbury in August 1961, he featured in two League Cup finals as well as the Gunners' 1970 Fairs Cup final triumph. He was also ever-present as Arsenal were FA Cup finalists in 1972 and had a testimonial match against Barcelona in March 1974. Netting 53 goals in 500 First Division games before reuniting with Frank McLintock at Leicester City in September 1977, he then played for Stockport. He later rejoined Arsenal as reserve team coach until his sudden, tragic death on the Arsenal training pitches in November 2000.
England Youth right-back Dave Bacuzzi contested a first-team slot with Jimmy Magill whilst at Arsenal. The son of former Fulham favourite Joe Bacuzzi, he played for Eastbourne United before following Ron Greenwood to Highbury in May 1959. He helped Arsenal reserves win the Football Combination in 1962/63 and made 46 First Division appearances prior to joining Manchester City for £25,000 in April 1964. Featuring in their 1965/66 Second Division title triumph, he joined Reading in September 1966 and later achieved success as Cork Hibs player-manager. He has since worked as a travel agent in Dublin.
England international centre-forward Joe Baker was Arsenal's leading marksman in four successive seasons. He was a prolific goalscorer for Hibernian before joining Italian side Torino for £70,000 in May 1961 and moved to Arsenal for a similar fee in August 1962. Ever-present in 1964/65, he netted 93 goals in 144 First Division games prior to joining Nottingham Forest for £65,000 in February 1966. He moved to Sunderland in June 1969, then played for Hibernian and Raith Rovers before managing Albion Rovers. Later a publican in Craigneuk, he then worked in the building trade and died in Wishaw in October 2003..

Yee haw, we got another from NC! 'Bout time.
Welcome to the forum!
IMO, you have really good guns listed. Rent them, shoot them, and go with what you like. Guns are like shoes; what's comfortable and good for one person is horribly bad for another. Only you will be able to make the final decision.
Check out the dedicated sections on each gun as well, you may get some more input.

Ogden • Pretrial publicity, the size of Weber County, and the "popularity" of 16-year-old Alexis Rasmussen has prompted an attorney for Eric Millerberg, charged with child abuse homicide in the teen's death, to ask for a change of venue.
Defense attorney Randall Marshall indicated in December that he would file a motion asking for Millerberg's trial to be held in a different county, but didn't do so until March 22. Oral arguments about the venue change were scheduled for Tuesday, but were delayed until May 8 so prosecutors could respond.
In the motion, Marshall asks for a trial to be held in Summit or Salt Lake counties instead of Weber County, which he said became more close-knit after Rasmussen was reported missing in September 2011.
"While Weber County has a fairly large population, the publicity and notoriety of this case and its victim created the effect of a close, small community because of the amount of newspaper and television coverage," Marshall wrote. "It seems that everyone knows someone who knew 'Lexi' or her mother or someone involved in this story."
Marshall's argument about pretrial publicity is centered on coverage of the case in the Standard-Examiner, the local newspaper for Weber County. According to the motion, 56 articles have been written about Rasmussen, and at least 34 mentioned Millerberg, whom Marshall noted in the motion has a prison history and tattoos covering much of his hands, arms and head – tattoos that have been the subject of at least one article in the Ogden newspaper.
Millerberg, 37, is charged in 2nd District Court with first-degree felony child abuse homicide in Rasmussen's 2011 death, along with felony counts of obstructing justice, desecrating a body and having unlawful sexual activity with a minor.
A six-day trial is set for July 22. Millerberg's wife, Dea Millerberg, 39, is charged with desecration of a human body related to the girl's death.
No trial date has been set for Dea Millerberg.
Dea Millerberg testified in April at her husband's preliminary hearing that he injected a fatal mix of heroin and methamphetamine into the teen and that the couple, in a panic, then dumped the girl's body in a remote part of Morgan County.

After teaching ESL abroad for nine years I really want to return to teach in the U.K.
I've taught business English in Germany and low-level English to immigrants in the United States.
I have a TESOL certificate and my experience to draw upon but do I need more?
Given the current economic climate, is it feasible or a realistic expectation for me to return and find ESL work?
I am hoping to settle in London. What is the ESL teaching job market like there?
All I would really like to be able to do is find teaching work in London so I can finish my degree and pay my rent. Am I dreaming?

Thailand President Samak Sundaravej joked with Myanamar's visiting president that denying the right of opposition leaders to participate in the upcoming referendum on a proposed new constitution for Burma suggested: "This is the way of a 50% democracy." There was no visible verbal or physical response from the Burmese general other than a blank stare. However, his government did announce that opposition leader, Aung San Suu Kyi who has been under house arrest for nearly two decades, would be allowed to vote in the referendum. Of course, specific provisions in the new constitution prohibit her from running for office, but the military junta has decided to demonstrate its respect for democracy by allowing her to cast a vote for a constitution which abrogates, not only her rights, but those of any opposition leader.
The laws governing the referendum prohibit Buddhist monks, and nuns, high ranking Christian and Hindu officials the mentally ill, people living in exile and convicted felons from casting ballots. It is one of those elections in which vote totals can be obtained prior to the first vote being cast.

"These gift tages / labels were a perfect idea for all of our back to school labeling. My son put them on his folders, in his books, on his binder. Good quality and really cute design!"
"I have ordered this product now twice for my son's birthday parties. I have received many compliments on it. It is easy and you don't have to spend $2-3 dollars every time for a card which gets thrown away anyways."
"Love these labels! They are perfect for labeling my son's back to school supplies for Pre-K. Great quality, great customer service and a happy preschooler who is now ready for his first day of school! Thanks Tiny Prints!"
"My son is 9 years old, doesn't really care what tag is on a gift for his friends. He did think it was cool that there is a soccer ball on it, though!"
"Excellent high quality product, printing was done exactly to specifications and received order within 3 days of placing it. Excellent packaging to ensure product is not damaged during delivery. Would definitely buy again!"

Phoenix Beats Valpo 1-0 in Overtime, Earns No. 4 Seed
By: Jill Wunrow
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay (10-6-1, 5-3-0 HL) men's soccer team did what no other Horizon League team was able to do this season, beat regular season conference champion Valparaiso (9-6-3, 5-1-1 HL). The Phoenix battled the Crusaders to a 1-0 overtime win Saturday at Aldo Santaga Stadium on senior day. Heading into the contest, Green Bay knew it had to win in order to have a chance at the No. 3 seed in the Horizon League Championship which kicks off Tuesday, Nov. 8.
"We emphasized to the players before the game that we need to stay focused on our goal of number one, winning and number two, not heading into the tournament with back-to-back losses," said head coach Kris Kelderman. "The fact it was senior day we also wanted to honor a class that has given so much to this program."
Heading into the contest Valparaiso had a league-best 10 shutouts so the Phoenix knew Saturday's game would be a defensive battle, coming as no surprise the first 90 minutes were scoreless.
"I was not surprised at all the game went in to overtime," said Kelderman. "Valpo does not concede a lot of goals, they're a very good team defensively and to top that off, we're not a team that's known for producing a lot of goals."
The lone goal of the contest came off a free kick situation in the 94th minute. Green Bay senior Stuart Grable (Neenah, Wis.) kicked the ball from the east side of the field before it was flicked by Andrew Stone (Green Bay, Wis.) and deflected by a Valpo player for the own goal.
"We knew it would be a close game and come down to one team taking advantage of one opportunity," Kelderman said.
Green Bay outshot the Crusaders 3-0 on corner kicks while being outshot 14-10 throughout the 94 minutes of play. Lawrence Talery (Coon Rapids, Minn.) led the Phoenix with three shots in the contest while senior Tony Walls (Wauwatosa, Wis.) added two. Goalkeeper Ryan Wehking (St. Louis, Mo.) tallied five saves for the Phoenix in the win.
With Wright State's 1-0 win at Butler, Green Bay will be the No. 4 seed in the Horizon League Championship and host the No. 5 seed Tuesday, Nov. 8 at 7 p.m. at Aldo Santaga Stadium.

text: Yes, the XDm 9 barrel can be swapped into the XDm .40 pistol. It is preferrable to buy the mags for the XDm 9 to use though because the .XDm .40 mag is susceptible to jams when you stuff it full of 9mm cartridges. Aftermarket barrels are available from several companies-I purchased mine from EFK Fire Dragon. You can also buy a barrel for .357 Sig which will fit in the XDm .40. Good luck

I'm sure I'm sticking my head on the proverbial chopping block here, but being new to Washington I have no idea where to start in my area. Moved up from Southern New Mexico to Western Washington area. Not asking for anyone for GPS location's to there favorite hunting area's, just a decent place to maybe start with. Haven't been able to meet any fellow duck hunters, probable because of the area I'm living in, not hunter friendly. Prior to the season opening I had a couple of guys say they would take me out and show me the ropes but it never happened. Tried to do some research through Game & Fish, but I don't really understand the way they have that set up. I have no experience being in an area like this and still don't eve really know my way around. So, can anyone offer some advice, or be willing to hook up with me for a hunt...have dog will travel lol.
Lastly, are Mojo's illegal here, from the reg's it sounds like it, but they still sell them here too, so I'm a little confused on that.
