Wow, didn't really expect you to read this far down. The latest iteration of the site is in open beta. It's a gentle open beta-- not in prime-time just yet. It's being hosted over at UpGuard (link) and you are more than welcome to give it a shot. Couple things:
This function uses xmllint to evaluate xpaths.
Usage: xpath /path/to/element XMLfile
Note between the last there is no plus sign
Handles everything except octets with 255. Ran through ip generator with variable octet lengths.
It is safe when there is
"PermitEmptyPasswords no"
in /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
This command is useful when there is no need to have a password.
Get info directly from /proc/uptime
ssh compresion -C option ...
on slow connection VNC performs better but in local LAN native secure X protocol is an option
a brief list of very common special characters in Dutch. Usefull for formatting Word source to html.
all on one line and you also get the filesystem type
Extensible to other ugly extensions like *.JPG, *.Jpg etc..
Leave out the last pipe to sh to perform a dry run.
Bash 4 will let you do {00..19} to get leading zeros, but Bash 3 doesn't have that feature. This technique gets you partway there (the sequences need be such that the last digit ranges from zero to nine - you can't use this for something like Bash 4's {03..27}, for example). When this limitation is not a problem, you can avoid some complicated string manipulation for concatenating leading zeros.
You can add more digits like this: {0..1}{0..9}{0..9} (ranges from 0 to 99 with up to two leading zeros). To pad with additional zeros:
for i in 000{0..1}{0..9}; do echo $i; done
for i in {0..1}{0..9}; do echo "000$i"; done
This is useful for creating values to sort or for creating filenames with a fixed format. Note that this will also work:
touch {0..1}{0..9}
The command generate an huge output file (depending on screen resolution and time).
Use find to recursively make a list of all files from the current directory and downwards. The files have to have an extension of the ones listed. Then for every file found, grep it for 'searchString', returns the filename if searchString is found.
Essentially the same as funky's alias, but will not traverse filesystems and has nicer formatting.
There can be more than one trailing slash, all of them will be removed.
In 2014, ask a kind of specific UAC authorization to run due to his dangerousity.
This command will generate "CHECK TABLE `db_name.table_name` ;" statements for all tables present in databases on a MySQL server, which can be piped into the mysql command. (Can also be altered to perform OPTIMIZE and REPAIR functions.)
Tested on MySQL 4.x and 5.x systems in a Linux environment under bash.
XDMCP ust be enabled (gdm,lightdm,xdm etc )
In July 2008, there was an uproar over Foxconn motherboards feeding Linux installs incorrect ACPI information (http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=869249).
Foxconn has gladly corrected their mistake, but make sure it's not happening on your motherboard!
After running the command, just view the 'dsdt.dsl' in any editor you like.

I have been building this 78 GMC since I was 17 (24 now) with the help of my dad. When I bought it for $300 bucks it had a straight 6 motor and 465 transmission in it. So far with all the money I have been able to spare I have cleaned up the interior and threw a quickie paint job on it just to keep from getting more rust. I have also replaced the engine, it now has a 350 bored out 30 over with a Weiann manifold and a 750 cfm Edelbrock 4 barrel. I also had a custom dual exhaust made for it. We also switched from the 4:11 rear end to a 3:88 or 3:85 I cant remember which without pulling out my records. So far all that has been bolt in place stuff. Now I am looking to swap my 465 four speed trans. with something a little more stream line. I am honestly a little lost when it comes to this area. I was told that the NP 3500 was a good place to start looking but I'm not sure what it will take to get linkage right and what will and wont bolt up to my bell housing and input shaft. Any help would be great. Thanks.
there were almost a dozen truck magazines on this site... the offroad magazines got switched around somewhat.. some of the articles are still there..there are a lot of options in manual transmissions..i am not a transmission swap expert..
since this has been a long term project.. i will look around over the next few days..see what i can find..you might be better off with an NV4500... you will want to search out the advance adaptors site or the novak site for info...you did not say if it is a 2 wheel drive or a 4x4...
Its a 2 wheel drive, short bed, single cab.
start with this..http://www.customclassictrucks.com/techarticles/0708cct_chevy_5_speed_transmission/viewall.htmlshould cover some of it
here is another thats closer to what you have.http://www.fourwheeler.com/how-to/transmission-drivetrain/131-0705-1986-chevy-1-ton-5-speed-manual-transmission-swap/except for the 4 wheel drive...
Thank you waynep712222, good stuff. Think this is going to change my direction here a bit.

2005 Fliers' and Explorers' Globe Signing Ceremony, 14 December 2005, New York City:Jennie Darlington (R) signs the globe and AGS Executive Director Mary Lynne Bird (L) looks on. Photo (R) is Edith Ronne and Jennie Darlington in the Antarctic, Winter 1947.
During the winter of 1947-48, Jennie Darlington and Edith (Jackie) Ronne were the first women to winter over in Antarctica. In tribute to their accomplishment, both were to be reunited in 2004 to sign the AGS' Fliers' & Explorers' Globe at the gala signing held in Atlanta that year. Jackie Ronne was able to attend, but Jennie Darlington was ill that day and unable to attend or sign.
Fortunately, on December 14, 2005 Jennie Darlington came to the AGS offices and became the latest of the more than seventy distinguished people to place their signatures on the globe. With a flourish she wrote her name on Antarctica, near those of Ronne and Richard E. Byrd. Representing the AGS Council, Dr. Doborah E. Popper joined the AGS staff and the Darlington family, son Harry (Skipper), daughter Cynthia, and son-in-law, Charles Beyer for the signing and then lunch at St. Maggie's Cafe.
Jennie Darlington clearly has always been an articulate, witty woman of spirit, adventure, and humor. She never intended to go to Antarctica, but found herself there for her honeymoon. Her new husband, Harry Darlington, was to be the senior pilot on the Finne Ronne expedition to explore and map the Weddell Sea. While working at Save the Children in New York City, she had met Harry, then a navy pilot. Antarctica was Harry's interest, not hers. At sixteen Harry had gone with Byrd in 1936, tending to the expedition's dogs. He looked forward to a return trip. As the time for the expedition to depart approached, Jennie and Jackie accompanied their husbands to Valparaiso, Chile. As Jennie recounted, it seemed the expedition might not come off since they were short of money for fuel. Finne approached the New York Times, offering them coverage of the expedition and, to increase the human interest angle, he added the tantalizing fillip of a woman coming along, as the first woman to winter over in Antarctica, as part of the story. The woman was to be his wife, Jackie. The Times bit and sent the money that allowed the group to take off. An unexpected obstacle, however, was the crew's resistance to having one woman in the party. They preferred two, assuming they would keep each other occupied. Jennie was enlisted.
Jennie's memories of the experience are of the exhilaration of being someplace so special, of the long nights, of bundling up, of the provisional nature of the camp, and lack of privacy, with the married couples getting a walled-off alcove at one end of the bunks. She recalled the conflicts and disagreements over routes of exploration. She remembered the dangers and the bravery and generosity. She spoke of one expedition member falling through a crevasse and a member from a neighboring expedition risking his own life in undertaking a successful rescue. And she recalled the fear that they might not get out as scheduled when the bay froze them in unexpectedly. An icebreaker was a welcome rescuer.
Jenny's husband Harry gave his name to a spit along the Weddell Bay. One of the pleasures of the globe signing event was that of watching the family pore over the AGS Antarctica map to locate the exact spot named for Harry Darlington. As Jennie's daughter peered at the map, she knew she had been there too—in utero, in her case. Jennie's was the first Antarctic pregnancy. She has never returned to Antarctica, but the family's interest in exploring and protecting the earth goes on. With the same spirit that took the Darlingtons to Antarctica, the next generation has pushed forward exploration with lighter-than-air technology, particularly applications for environmental monitoring. And many women have since followed in Jackie's footsteps to Antarctica.


text: The 2013 Inside Linebacker class has an unquestioned leader of the pack: Manti Te'o of Notre Dame. Te'o will be the first ILB to come off the board, likely to be somewhere between picks 10 and 15. Te'o possesses everything that an NFL team in search of a defensive captain is looking for. From his physical measurables to his productivity and instincts, Te'o will likely be an NFL starter from his first day in training camp. In the latest installment of FRG's Scouting Series, I decided to take a look at Manti Te'o vs. Michigan State in week 3 of the 2012 season. What I saw was no surprise: Te'o is an elite LB prospect. Standing at an estimated 6'2 and 255lbs, Te'o physically looks every bit the part for a traditional MLB in a 4-3 defense. He may be a tad short for the ILB position in a 3-4, but he has enough girth and weight to hold up against free-running OG's in such an alignment. That said, a 4-3 team that's looking for a MLB will see a physical prototype when measuring up Te'o. His speed is estimated at or around a 4.60, which for an ILB in either a 4-3 or 3-4 is plenty fast enough. Ideally, scouts look for LB's that can run anywhere between the 4.55 to 4.70 range, with deference being given to field speed over timed speed. Te'o does well in both categories. Athleticism is vital when evaluating a linebacker and projecting him to the next level. The player has to show the ability to fight through traffic, have the necessary coordination and balance to stay on their feet, and have the quickness, acceleration, and strength to make a tackle or finish a play. Te'o showed plus athleticism versus Michigan State, as he was consistently making play after play. Te'o was constantly shedding blocks and maintaining pursuit to the ball carrier all game long. His 12 tackles showed just how active he was. Speaking of tackles, Te'o displayed an elite ability to bring the ball carrier down. Te'o consistently delivered the blow with good pad level and created a jolt on contact. http://www.firstroundgrade.com/articles/120-scouting-lb-s-te-o

Okay, I have been going over this idea for the past four years or so - I've been refining it into a concept that I really felt comfortable with, and now I'm at the point where I can start some serious work.
First off is the helmet. I've decided to completely finish the helmet before I began work on anything else.
It's a Mystery size helmet that I picked up about 2 years ago. Went through alot of modifications, then I painted it all up using automotive paints.
The colors (and every other aspect of the bucket, for that matter) are custom - made up by me. I chose a dark gunmetal grey for the base, and used a rusty brownish color for the trim. The earcaps are painted orange to compliment the rust color.
In reality the helmet is only 99% done, not finished. I'm currently working on revamping the interior, and building a rangefiner & stalk. I'll also be adding an aluminum bar to the lower lip of the t-visor. It'll make the helmet more stable, help to cover up that rough cut, and also add to the custom look.
Mercke Lutso is a Mandalorian Supercommando character that I made up a long time ago. I'm writing a novel about him atm...he was also my avatar during the short time that I played SWG (CU). I plan on making a full ensemble to reflect the character. I have drawings - I'll post them later.
The bucket. Here she is:
Here are some detail shots:
I filled in the two arrows above the brow, for some more diversity among other customs. Also filled in the dent.
Put three chrome tacks on the lip of the rear-left, just for the heck of it.
A closeup on some of the layered weathering. Edited for better visibility.
Tweaked the left earpiece.

AMES, Iowa— Iowa Learning Farms will host a field day at the Mark Mueller farm near Waverly, Iowa, on Thursday, June 14, beginning at 11 a.m. The field day will focus on no-till conservation farming and crop residue management for optimum results.
Bremer County farmer Mark Mueller began using no-till several years ago by planting soybean into standing cornstalks to control soil erosion and save labor. In 2010, he began no-till planting corn following corn. Many of Mark's acres are on a two-year corn/one-year soybean rotation, with some acres planted to a three-year corn/one-year soybean rotation. Mueller will talk about his planting equipment and yield success; ILF farmer partner Collin Jensen will also be on hand to offer insights on successful no-till continuous corn production. Jensen farms near West Union in Fayette County. NRCS soil conservationist Shaffer Ridgeway will discuss cost-share incentives available to farmers interested in trying no-till on their farms.
The field day includes a complimentary lunch served by the Bremer County Pork Producers. The event is free and the public is invited to attend. The field day site is located just northwest of the Waverly airport. Take exit 205 from Highway 218 west of Waverly, travel east on 210th St., (business highway 218) toward Waverly. Parking is available at the intersection of 210th Street and Caspar Ave.
Iowa Learning Farms takes a grassroots approach, offering innovative ways to help all Iowans have an active role in keeping the state's natural resources healthy and not take them for granted. A goal of Iowa Learning Farms is to build a culture of conservation, encouraging the adoption of residue management and conservation practices. Farmers, researchers and ILF team members are working together to identify and implement the best in-field management practices that increase water and soil quality while remaining profitable.
Iowa Learning Farms is a partnership of the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture, Iowa Natural Resources Conservation Service and Iowa Department of Natural Resources (USEPA section 319); in cooperation with Conservation Districts of Iowa, the Iowa Farm Bureau and the Iowa Water Center.

I am a new member and I am making my first build of rotj armor. I have the chest shoulders cod back done, helmet almost done, and jetpack about 50%.
What I need help on are the gauntlets. They are killing me. I want them to look sick, and I have Wof's templates printed out, but I cannot figure out how to assemble them. This is really aggravating because I have a good eye for how things are built and geometry but I just cannot make these come together. :(
I really need some help here, if anyone has any instructions or threads they know of that have a good step by step build using these templates I would really appreciate any help.
I want these to look great, and I am willing to put in the time to do it, I just need a bit of a guiding hand.
Thanks for any help,

What is this world coming to?
Today is the fist time I have ventured into the pub chat area and man I really need to get this out. The state of the world is getting worse everyday. Our country is going to hell in a hurry. Politicians are liars, cheats and destroying our society. We are spending money we don't have on other countries while our Country crumbles. Michigan has become one of the crappiest states in the union. Unemployment is at an all time high with no real relief in sight. Gas prices, forclosures, inflation and war are all we hear about.
It seems like it is becoming near impossible to survive these days. Everything has become so expensive. I have been fortunate to still be employed, providing for my family is becoming more and more stressful. My wife is a stay at home mom and even if she had a job, the cost of day care and the Tax that dual income families pay, it would almost cost me more. There really is no benifit for the added bull. We don't have credit cards, just the basic's mortgage, one car payment. I drive beaters and still can hardly make it to the next paycheck. Taxes, insurance and utilities are devouring any and all remaing money I may have left.
These gas prices are insane, my weekly expense has more that doubled and I have for the first time in my life found myself driving a non US made auto. I have been working for the Japanees for the past seven plus years, because they seem to be the only ones hiring and not laying people off. I purchased a 92' Honda Accord to save money on fuel and have something depenable to drive. For $500.00 I couldn't pass it up.
I guess I really need to find something that will take my mind off all the shit we hard working people have to face. I tried drinking but that didn't work! DUH, well anyone got any suggestions?

I heard Germany once had a similar crisis. Then Hitler came in and took care of it. Maybe you could vote for Hillary next election. I hear she's starting a new Communist society this side of the pond.
I'm not quoting idiots who promote unsafe recovery strap techniques anymore. :miff:

I agree. I work nights and stay home with my 2 daughters while my wife works during the day. We have no car payments, no childcare expenses. We also somehow have no $$. At least not enough to do anything with. And the last couple days before payday is always a stretch. There is no faith to be had in politicians, and none of them seem to do anything to help out people on a day to day basis. Like you said, our country seems to have no problem passing out blank checks to other countries for unnecessary purposes. It is time to stop wasting our time and money on other countries and start investing in our own. But of course our opinions and ideas have no audience in our untouchable government. We (the public) are never even asked for our opinions. We just elect some crappy leader every 4 years and let them do whatever they want. I think I will move to Canada.

I'm not for Comunisim or Socialism, hell I don't totaly know what they mean. I have an idea but I think at times our leaders need to step in, and stop some of this. Oil, well I won't hold my breath for Bush or Cheney to step in because, that would hurt their wallets. So make everyone suffer, how is it that gas prices just sky rocket! Demand? Well I think it is Greed. Instead of being real rich, No they need to be insanely rich. I live in Fowlerville and work in Farmington. Big difference in area as well as household income yet Gas is generally 10 cents or more higher than what it costs in Farmington. Hell somtimes I can save 20 cents by driving a half mile further down the road. What is that all about. We must just like taking it in the ass, thats the only thing I can figure. Whatever it is all relative, if you aren't struggeling then who cares.

Michigan use to be a great state with great times shared by many. I find myself asking the same questions as you guys. When is it going to stop? I live on the Michigan Ohio border and have had amny thoughts about poking into ohio just to live but hate the feeling! I also have a stay at home wife/teacher.
We sat back listing to all the school funds being cut and seeing our son sturggling in 4th grade. We started home schooling him and within one year of him taking his own pace he is breezing through 6th grade stuff. So I ask what is going on in the schools?
And don't just think it's in MI that people are hurting cause no matter where you go there are still weak areas out there. Just seems MI is the weakest.
I make ok money and still hard to not live pay check to pay check. The only thing that I have found to keep my mind out of the dumps is knowing I am married to a wonderful woman and I still have my family. Money can't buy that!

And the Schools, man what a sad state our schools are in. My hat comes off to the men and women who stive to teach our children. My dad is a teacher so I know what it means, He taught High School (Math and Science) for 11 years and has now I think 25 years with OCC. He is a great man, though when I was younger I didn't think so. But now that I am a parent I can truly appreciate all the times he had to deal with my rebelious butt. But life was a bit easier then though it really wasn't that long ago. We got our share of spankings and oh yes we deserved it. Now we have this society of time outs and reasoning with our two year olds. Why do we have all the problems in our schools with shooting and violence? We aren't allowed to be parents to our children anymore. I read an article about spanking our children in Time several years back and the short of it said this. The trend of time outs and studies done showing the benifits were misleading. The majority of the kids being punished with that method were mainly from dual parent homes, higher income. The children being spanked were mainly in single parent lower income level families. So the children not being spanked excelled over those being spanked. What they ultimatly found children that were spanked from time to time and were from dual parent homes also excelled and even were higher than those of non spanking methods. Kids up to a certain age in developement can't understand no, or reasoning. You must get their attention, and a swat to the behind will get their attention and put a less desirable experience to a certain action. But ultimately we need to show our kids, love and how to respect their elders, peers, and themselves.
Our handicapped daughter is in third grade and attends a special needs class. The school just had their 3rd grade field trip and took the students to the Zoo. We got a call from the school about a week before the trip in regards to our daughter. She had been talking about this for several weeks and was so excited. The school told us that they decided they wouldn't be taking a bus with a lift. That three busses would be enough to take all the students, teachers and help. But if they took two regular and one lift bus there would not be enough seats and a fourth bus would be needed and did not want to make that expense. They told us that we could drive her and follow the buses or she could stay behind at school or be allowed to stay home that day. What a bunch of crap! I pay taxes, and we even provide the school with all the equipment our daughter needs on a daily basis though by law they are supposed to have or purchase those things. From walkers, special seats and other things we have saved our school system tens of thousands in doing this and they have the nerve to expect our daughter to not go. If we couldn't take her she wouldn't have gone and they were fine with that. Our economic status has become so bleek that we are losing more and more of the rights and privelages our country is all about.
I think one day I am gonna sit down and write a book about all the things we have had to go through. I am going to be 34 next week and I have already dealt with more crap than most people that are retired and twice my age.

The part that gets me about all this is the "cut this, cut that" talk. But, never, ever, do you hear of the polititions and law makers taking a cut! If they aren't doing their damn job, they deserve a pay cut! If you performed you job poorly, would you have the option to vote yourself a pay raise? Those jackass's that "run things" are too damn power drunk to change things for the better.!

Sounds like George W's "No child left behind" is working pretty well! What a joke. Why should leaving your daughter out of a field trip ever be an acceptable decision? That is unbelievable.

If the polititons want to show the people of Michigan,that they can and will improve the state. Than they need to first take a cut in pay before doing any other cuts or increases of our tax's

how does granholm think that raising the state income tax is going to help? more people, more businesses and more jobs will just leave for other states.

there have been other, bigger wars throughout history, eventually they ended and life went on.
Politicians have always been liars and cheats, nothing new there.
One state has to be the crappiest, it just happens to be this one right now
Unemployment is NOT at and all time high, not even close. Go here: http://data.bls.gov/PDQ/servlet/SurveyOutputServlet and look at the data for the early 1980's
As for having to live paycheck to paycheck and struggling to make expenses I think we're largely done that to ourselves. Most people seem to have forgotten the difference between "want" and "need". A house in the country is a "want". I'm tired of hearing people who drive 40 miles each way from the country to the city complain about how much it costs them in gas to make that drive. I guess you should have thought about that before you moved into an area with few jobs around it. It's your demand for gas that keeps the price high. Cable/satilite TV, cell phone, high speed internet, big car, big houses, large country lots... as much as many people think they "need" these things, they are still just "wants". People lived without these things for years, they could again.

"Great looking card, the designer helped me get the back of the card to look exactly as I wanted. The pearl finish stands out against my competitors cards. Delivery was very quick! Thanks Tiny Prints!"
"I use this product for Real Estate, to market my properties. I like it because it looks professional, its easy to customize and it is small enough to pass out to people with relevant information on the inside."
"Not only are these cards perfect for promoting my Etsy store, they double as sales tags that go home with local retail customers."
"I designed a business card using photos of my work. The online design process is relatively easy, although the view varies from device to device (my iPad had better images than my laptop). The option to see a proof and update the product is very helpful, and the person providing prrofs was very responsive. I also like the option of up to three updates (I'd missed an error in my email address, it was easily fixed)."
"I ordered the clear perfection design business cards. - The design was easy to use. - The print quality was excellent. - The shipping was very fast. - The layout design of the card looks professional. - It allowed me to show my own sense of design by letting me add a photo and zoom in for cropping for the best placement of the photo."

How Do We Transform Into The Creature? I Dont Get That
when u start off playing, at beginer's lvls, when your hp is close to dying it sometimes automatically turns into chaos so you could try defend for your life. Another way which is the regular way would be killing other players. on the right bottom corner of the screen there's a small guage. For every 7 players killed, it fills up and you press "c" to transform.
my random quotes:Attitude controls all!
The moon shines on those who seek it..
Kill Kill Kill, you definitely know by now ahiihihi

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by WildRose, Nov 29, 2011.
Go San Francisco!
Down with Happy Meal toys!
That may very well be true. Also, I miss European architecture. And no, obviously, our city government has nothing at all to do other than to waste time/ on laws that don't work.
Except not. McD figured out a way around this: since they are not allowed to GIVE AWAY toys with Happy Meals, they are now charging 10 cents for it to go with the meal. Proceeds go to the Ronald McDonald charity. Nanny state fail.
Also, how do you, admirers of the city feel about the San Francisco Unified School district policy that required higher test scores from Chinese-American students when they were applying to magnet public schools? True story. This policy was only overturned as a result of a lawsuit.
I'm sure you could find a crazy story about Vienna city administration without trying very hard as well.
San Francisco struck me as the most European city in the U.S. I've been to (and yes I lived there ), so maybe you wouldn't like to live in Europe as much as you think.
Yes, and?
I always find this "SF is so Euro" notion baffling. I've lived in Europe, both Eastern and Western, btw. I never said I would like to live in Europe again. I expressed a liking for a European city, not quite the same thing.
The grass is always greener.
Well you don't live in Europe any more and sound like you hate San Francisco. Perhaps you should try living somewhere else like Texas or Alaska. It might be a better fit.
I always thought it had a European quality to it too. But then most Brits I know who visit SF come away with that impression, so maybe I just absorbed that from them.
You are reading something I am not typing. I said I like Vienna, you are reading something clearly different. Oh well.
Perhaps you should try living in Cuba.
I like living where I live. Unlike you. You always complain about how awful it is to live in San Francisco. If you don't like it, move. Simples.
Otherwise, you're just moaning for the sake of it and secretly love living in a vibrant, fun, multi-cultural city with a temperate climate.
Simples, eh. I am not going to go into reasons why it may not be "simples". It should be obvious to the most casual observer.
There are definitely great things about the city, which I have repeatedly stated, including multiculturalism. However, the often ridiculous politics/utterly dysfunctional schools are not a good fit for me, so I've been working on the process you consider so "simples". Also, I prefer SoCal weather to the perpetual fog of San Francisco.
I don't like where I live, but I'm kinda stuck here because of personal reasons. I don't mind living in San Fran, but moving will not be easy.
Yes, moving is not easy, especially when for instance, you have a family, friends and job(s), all of which are so utterly "simples" to leave behind.
My experience is that if someone wants to make a change badly enough, they'll make it happen. If they don't they'll make all sorts of excuses about why it's not possible.
My experience is that if someone wants to continue being purposefully obtuse, they'll make it happen.
Or if you have disabled relatives that rely on you and need to stay in a certain place.
IA--don't you live in Marin County? It's rather distinct from SF IIRC.
I don't know--my son is a quadriplegic, and we've moved several times. If you really have to move, you do it. People with challenging circumstances do it all the time.
I tend to agree with fred that people who don't move generally like where they live relative to other places.
Just don't mention how much you hate living in awful San Francisco so much and we'll all be happier not to have to read it and think "why the f*ck doesn't she just move then?"
No, whatever made you think that? I like Marin, better weather, better schools.
I hate living in awful San Francisco. But you don't have to read it. Simples.
Move there!
Why not move to Marin or Contra Costa Counties? They have fab school districts, and at least with Contra Costa, are on the BART so are easily accessible to SF for commuting purposes.
I'm not trying to be snarky btw. Just curious
The only way I can move right now is to cut my ties off every member of my family who live here. I'm working on moving though, but if I wanna keep the family (or at least part of it) then I'll have to take my time on this one.
Well, I don't know your particular circumstances so can't comment specifically. But sometimes what we fear we'll lose is significantly greater than what we actually do when we do move. It's more the fear of change that keeps us put than anything else often times.
Family, friends and jobs. While Mini Ice is so young, I feel it's important for him to interact with his family, grandparents and cousins.
East Bay and Marin are not easily accessible. Ever been stuck on the East bound 80, on the way to the Bay Bridge?
We are, however, actively making plans to retire elsewhere.
I have a French friend who initiated divorce proceedings against her Japanese husband and moved from France to Florida with her two girls in the space of three months to take up a new job. But then some people aren't just all talk.
I have a great chance of moving in about 3.5 years. I'm patient. So no worries.
Well, since you've mentioned schools in the past, I would just point out that the top performing school district in the entire state is located a whole mile from you in Contra Costa County. It has its own BART stop, and takes only about 15 minutes train ride to get to downtown SF.
So if education is really an issue, that's something to consider.
Clearly, you've never commuted to the East Bay. We've considered even better performing schools on the Peninsula as a back up plan if Mini Ice didn't get into a good school in the city. Luckily, he did. Otherwise, we'd lose the easy accessibility to the grandparents and our jobs.
Do you belong to a cult or the Scientologists?
No. I don't wanna explain any more as my family could be reading this.
I feel the same way. I don't necessarily want to give out a lot of details here. All I can say is what I've said already: I don't like many aspects of living here but am willing to put up with them for now, for the valuable trade off of having family/friends/jobs. I've made that very clear.
However, we are actively making plans to retire elsewhere.
But Contra Costa is part of the East Bay .
The commute from Orinda to Berkeley (part of the East Bay) on BART is only 15 minutes. And Orinda is the #1 school district in the entire state of CA.
It's not like you have to move there or anything , but the commute to work from Contra Costa County to other portions of the East Bay would be infinitely easier than traveling to the Peninsula. Plus the Orinda schools are much higher ranked than those in the Peninsula (with far cheaper housing costs).

There is no more intractable problem in parts of Kansas City than gun violence.
People get shot in robberies, for revenge and even randomly.
But what can we do? Will more police patrols help? Harsher jail sentences? Gun control?
KCPT tackles this problem in a one hour special; Shots Fired: KCPT Takes Aim at Gun Violence.
Kansas City is trying a unique approach to stopping the gun violence. By treating the problem as a health care epidemic.
Special Correspondent Sam Zeff will show you how Aim4Peace tracks the violence, predicts where it will spread and then tries to cut it off before it happens.
Hosted by KCPT's Nick Haines, the program will bring together Kansas City Mayor Sly James, the Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker former U-S Attorney for Western Missouri Todd Graves and area leaders working to solve the inner city crime problem.
"It's one of those nagging issues that simply won't go away. Why do we accept such an unacceptably high death toll in our inner city?" Haines says. "It would be easy for us to ignore the problem as unfixable. But we feel obligated as a public TV station to spotlight the problem and make a concerted effort to seek answers."

I'd like to buy a camera, and I'm a beginner, but would like to learn more with manual settings. I hesitates between entry level dslrs and bridge cameras, and realised bridges are more affordable for me (without the need of buying proper objectives as well)
I went through many-many reviews, but I still can't decide.
So i would like to ask your opinion on wchich one's the best!
My requirements for the camera:
Price should be among 300-470$ (though prices here in Hungary are more than in the USA)
Manual settings (mainly interested in manual focus, preferably with ring on the lens barrel)
Sharp and nice colorful images with as low noise as possible
min. 12 MP
good (full)HD video
I was considering Sony Cybershot DSC-HX100V (456.32$ here), Fujifilm FinePix HS30EXR (481.15$ here), Canon PowerShot SX40 HS (466.43$), and other Nikon bridge cameras (like Nikon Coolpix P510 (452.63$), which has manual focus, but without ring, and others that don't have manual focusing at all..)
Thank you very much for your help!!
Best Bridge Camera?

Search Online Mortality Schedules for Free
Posted by
Bill Cribbs, the man behind the
free genealogy search engine site, has gathered hundreds of counties' online transcribed mortality schedules and made them searchable at
For the 1850 through 1880 US censuses, enumerators recorded names of and other details about people who'd died within the past year. These mortality schedules may be the only death record for some people, especially in states that didn't require recording of deaths until later.
You can browse
by state or search on one or more keywords, such as a name or place. (If you want matches to contain more than one keyword, select "Find all words" from the dropdown menu.)
When you click on a match, you'll be taken to the Web site that stores the transcribed records. What you see varies depending how the data was transcribed and digitized.
You may get a chart or a text file listing a few details of deaths in that enumeration district, or you may get the whole shebang: the deceased's age and marital status at death; death date, place and cause; birth date and place; physician's name; parents' birthplaces and more.
This 1880 schedule is on

NYG&B Update: Member Voting Eliminated
Posted by
At the
New York Genealogical & Biographical Society
's (NYG&B) July 19 meeting, a proposal to change the bylaws to eliminate member voting passed. The tally was 1,401 in favor to 227 opposed.
Decision-making authority now rests with the nonprofit's 15-member board of trustees. Read
our coverage of the controversial proposal
NYG&B chairman Waddell Stillman's comments
We've heard (but haven't confirmed) that several members may file a class action lawsuit and/or ask the New York attorney general to investigate the vote, based on member assertions they didn't receive proxy ballots in the mail.
The contentious meeting (read an
eyewitness account
from attendee and proposal opponent Dick Hillenbrand) shed no light on the board's plans for the society's library and other assets. A synogogue recently purchased the NYG&B headquarters and will lease space to the society for two years.

Traditional Recipes: Burgoo, Anyone?
Posted by
Family Tree Magazine
coworker Kathy, who has deep roots across the Ohio River in Kentucky, is yawning from a weekend preparing burgoo for the family reunion cookoff she dreamed up.
Burgoo is a big thing around here, but somehow I hadn't heard of it. It's a thick stew that's traditional in Kentucky, especially at church festivals. (This 1900 postcard shows group burgoo preparation.) It's even served at the Kentucky Derby alongside mint juleps.
The ingredients list spans the barnyard, with beef, chicken and pork. Vegetables include potatoes, corn and five kinds of beans; pickling spices and hot sauce are among the seasonings. The chef can substitute freely and toss in pretty much anything on hand, though, then cook it for a day or so.
Kathy's recipe originally made 75 gallons. She cut it down but still ended up with enough for most of the tri-state area (and several lucky coworkers).
She had to do some research to adapt measures and cooking methods to modern times. For example, the recipe called for a "number 10 can" each of ketchup and tomatoes. A
search gave the equivalent: 6 lbs, 6oz (that's a lot of Heinz).
Apparently Kathy's relatives got really excited about the cookoff. One family spent all Saturday together, some out back roasting meat and others inside peeling potatoes. (That clan won a ladle and bragging rights.)
A little good-natured cooking competition can spice up a ho-hum family reunion and beef up the family history element. Need help gathering and preparing old recipes? The
December 2004
Family Tree Magazine
features an article all about that, and FamilyTreeMagazine.com offers an
plus a handy
old-fashioned-to-new-fashioned measurement conversion guide

New Group Aims to Keep Public Records Open
Posted by
Five genealogists have started the Keep Genealogical Records Open Workgroup (KGROW). Their goal is to educate government officials and the public about the truth behind identity theft- and terror-related efforts to close public records.
"We find there's no evidence that open public records contribute to identity theft or terrorism to any measurable degree," says KGROW co-chair Jean Foster Kelley.
Her statement echoes the
December 2006
Family Tree Magazine
special report on public records (available as a PDF file at
). Our research indicates public records pose little identity theft risk; the major culprits are stolen financial documents and corporate data breaches.
States have passed 616 record closure laws since the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. Now state public records laws must comply with the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004, which could negatively impact your attempts to find relatives' birth and death records. States can—but aren't required to—make concessions for genealogical research.
KGROW, a project of the
Association of Professional Genealogists
(APG) Florida chapter, will prepare a position paper and solicit support from the APG, news media and other organizations.

NYG&B Chairman Comments on Controversy
Posted by
After speaking with
New York Genealogical & Biographical Society
(NYG&B) board chairman Waddell Stillman, I'm updating
Friday's coverage of the controversial proposal to eliminate member voting
The proposal is a response to members' attempts to stop the sale of the society's headquarters building (finalized in March), but Stillman says it's not retaliation. "We're updating our form of governance so the society isn't exposed to a repeat of the loss of funds. If we stood by and ignored the six-figure loss we incurred, we'd be shirking our duties as fiduciaries."
NYG&B trustees say "a handful" of members delayed the sale, causing a loss of investment income based on the $24 million sale price.
If passed, the proposal will do away with proxy voting system, which Stillman says New York State laws require. (The society must mail ballots to members, who can send back their votes, cast votes at a meeting, or designate meeting attendees to vote on their behalf.) If the proposal passes, the board would appoint new officers rather than hold elections.
Before issuing the proposal, NYGB's board surveyed other non-profit organizations and consulted with the
New England Historic Genealogical Society
(NEHGS), whose members passed a similar measure—after a similar debate—several years ago. NEHGS has an advisory board in addition to its board of directors. "I wouldn't know what our board would say about adopting that structure, because we didn't fully consider it," says Stillman.
He says NYG&B members will still have access to the group's services and online resources, though he doesn't yet know what the society will do with its research collections and financial assets. (The board has two years from the building sale date to move.) "After we take care of housekeeping matters and governance … we will face those huge questions and we'll benefit from all the debate."
That debate won't lead to reduced membership, he predicts. "I think people will act in their self-interest and then continue to enjoy the benefits of membership."

NYG&B Controversy: Members Decry Voting Proposal
Posted by
A simmering dispute within the
New York Genealogical & Biographical Society
(NYG&B) has risen to a boil as the society's 5,000 members consider a proposal from the Board of Directors to divest themselves of voting privileges.
The dispute began in September 2006, when the board voted to
sell the society's 58th Street headquarters in New York City
. In a letter to members, chairman Henry C.B. Lindh cited a shortage of funds for crucial building upgrades, and said that a sale would let the organization focus on the "research and education that are the core of [its] mission."
Members voted to approve the sale at an Oct. 12 meeting, and beforehand by proxy. The society hasn't announced its new home, but is permitted to remain in the building for two years
In January, at least one member suggested, in a
note on Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter blog
, that a mail merge glitch may have prevented some members from receiving proxy vote letters. President William C. Johns sent a
response denying a problem occurred
and calling the e-mail "a fishing expedition attempting to identify any reason to delay or thwart the approved transaction." (Johns hasn't yet responded to voice mail messages left today.)
Members launched an e-mail
campaign to protest the sale before the New York Supreme Court approval hearing
, but the Hampton Synagogue's $24 million purchase of the building was finalized.
In June, the NYG&B sent members and proxy voting materials and a letter about the proposal to remove their voting privileges and leave decision-making power with the 15-member board of directors. (The
New England Historic Genealogical Society
operates in a similar way, but it has both a board of directors and a larger advisory board.)
In the letter, board chairman Waddell W. Stillman said passing the proposal would streamline the society's operations and allow faster response to challenges and opportunities. About the NYG&B building sale, he added, "A handful of members, acting to thwart the unanimous vote of the board of trustees and overwhelming vote of the membership, delayed the sale for months. The NY State Supreme Court felt obligated to hear these few dissenters out, long after the NY State Attorney General had endorsed the sale, because our governance system gives each individual member legal standing to object to a proposed action."
The full proposal was available by request and on the NYG&B Web site members-only section.
That's when members' e-mails and message board postings really began to fly, all encouraging members to vote down the proposal. (Supporters of the measure have been quiet.) Some examples we found:
Their messages express concern over the directors' intentions for the society's assets, which now include $24 million in addition to the library, online resources, and publications and education programs.
In-person voting on the proposal will take place at a July 19 meeting at the NYG&B headquarters. We'll keep you updated.

Hamburg Museum Details Emigrants' Experience
Posted by
Between 1850 and 1939, more than 5 million Europeans left for the New World via Hamburg, Germany. They're honored in that city's
BallinStadt Port of Dreams
museum, which opened July 4.
The museum is in a reconstruction of BallinStadt, an emigration facility—amenities included living quarters, churches, a synagogue and a kosher dining hall—that served 2 million emigrants. (The original building was destroyed during World War II.) Most of those outbound passengers were Eastern Europeans.
Exhibits relate the journeys of specific emigrants. Walk up to life-size models of the passengers, and they'll "speak" about their migration experiences.
Similar to the
Ellis Island museum
we enjoy stateside, BallinStadt's main entrance hall boasts a family history center. Visitors can search genealogical databases including Hamburg emigrants. Unlike Ellis Island, though, the Hamburg emigration lists aren't free on BallinStadt's Web site. Instead, the site directs you to
, where the records are part of the $155.40-per-year US Deluxe records collection.
Family History Library
in Salt Lake City has microfilm of the lists, called

Try Family Tree Maker 2008 in Beta
Posted by
If you're a technologically adventurous genealogist who loves being first to play with the latest gadget, you can give the next incarnation of Family Tree Maker a whirl.
Family Tree Maker 2008 is slated for official release in August, but
The Generations Network
is letting you download a beta version now at
(Editorial aside: What's with the erratic version naming? Things were moving along fine with 1 through 11, then we got year names with versions 2005 and 2006, then back to numbers with Family Tree Maker 16, and now we're on version 2008. Is this just to confuse users into thinking they've missed an upgrade?)
Files created with the beta version may or may not open in the release version. Among other warnings (it's almost like the genealogical equivalent of bungee jumping): The beta Family Tree Maker 2008 will stop working August 24, so you should export any stored GEDCOMs before then.
We hear the program interface is radically different with this release, so we're curious about your thoughts. Post them here or on the

Today, Microsoft announced pricing and availability for the Windows RT version of the Microsoft Surface ($499 for 32GB, not including the "Touch Cover," available for preorder today, shipping 10/26). This product is intended to be a pure consumer play; Microsoft also plans to launch a Windows 8 version of the Surface, aimed at enterprises, for which it has not yet announced pricing. Yesterday, I spent the day with the Surface team led by Steven Sinofsky and Panos Panay, and I learned many things: Sinofsky is from Florida, for example, and when he stands on a Surface that's attached to skateboard wheels, it doesn't break. I learned about the importance of optically bonded displays, saw nifty 3D printers making plastic models, and heard about the many trips to China required to perfect the Surface manufacturing process. I was told many examples of the Surface team's attention to detail, down to the sound design of the kickstand closure.
I did not hear, however, the answers to the most pertinent questions asked by our clients, many of whom are product strategists in Microsoft's partner ecosystem (OEMs, ISVs, and potential app developers like media companies, banks, and retailers). Will Surface expand distribution beyond Microsoft's stores and website? If Microsoft believes it's making the "best hardware for Windows," as Sinofsky told us, how does it expect its OEM partners to respond? No comment on both fronts.

Three King City police officers plead not guilty in corruption scandal
First of six defendants arraigned in Monterey County Superior Court Thursday
SALINAS, Calif. - Three King City police officers pleaded not guilty Thursday in Monterey County Superior Court to charges stemming from an alleged car impounding scheme.
Former chief Dominic "Nick" Baldiviez pleaded not guilty to a felony embezzlement charge, as did officer Mario Mottu Sr. Officer Mark Baker pleaded not guilty to a charge of criminal threats.
The three are among six King City police officers arrested last week. The others will be arraigned later this month.
All three officers at the court today are not charged with targeting Hispanics in an alleged car impounding scheme.
Former Chief "Nick" Baldiviez's attorney, Thomas Worthington, says his client is innocent.
"This man started with law enforcement in 1987. He started with the King City police department in 1989. He was the chief in 2005," said Worthington about his client.
Now, February 6, 2014 Chief Baldiviez is in court, pleading not guilty, to embezzlement.
Worthington says as far as Baldiviez knew he had permission from King City City Council to give Mario Mottu Sr. a King City police car for a public relations tool for the police department, and he says there are documents to prove it.
"I'm not prepared to discuss the paper work at this time other than to say there was never an intention to do anything unlawful with this car," said Worthington.
Richard Rosen, who's representing Mottu Sr., says the D.A.'s evidence must meet certain criteria to prove embezzlement.
"They have to show it was done fraudulently with the intent to profit," said Rosen.
The D.A. says he can show that intent, and the documents the officer's attorneys are talking about are no surprise to him. Worthington says he's only just started to build his case.
"We need to read all of the documents the district attorney is going to give to us, and see the paperwork that was submitted to the Department of Vehicles when this transfer occurred," said
Rosen believes the evidence in this case will speak for itself.
"You don't steal a car and then put it in a police parade," said Rosen.

2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Kerry Meier, WR, Kansas
It has been a weird road to wide receiver for Kerry Meier of Kansas. He began his collegiate career as a quarterback and performed admirably as a freshman in 2006, starting eight games on the year. Things looked bad in 2007 when Meier lost the starting quarterback job to Todd Reesing. Eventually (in order to find a way to put the athletic Meier on the field), he started taking snaps at wide receiver. Meier obviously knew the offense, but he was not very involved as a sophomore. That changed in 2008 when Meier teamed up with Dezmon Briscoe to turn into one of the most dangerous receiving duos in the nation. Meier is not the deep threat that Briscoe is, but he led the team with 97 catches (which led to 1,045 receiving yards) and eight trips to the end zone. The story has been the same thus far during the 2009 campaign. Briscoe gets the big plays, but Meier is the clutch receiver who gets more catches. Meier is a legitimate early round selection due to his size and intelligence. At 6-3 he still looks like he can play quarterback, and having a former quarterback at wide receiver makes the defense think twice on every end. He is not that fast or agile, but he runs great routes and is always mentally a step ahead of the defense.

Not fast, but a sure handed receiver. He could play slot. His stock could go up if he's faster than 4.55.

It's TEEN READ WEEK! This week, October 14 – 20, libraries, schools, and bookstores will celebrate Teen Read Week, with events and programs aimed at encouraging teens to read for pleasure and to look to the library for free reading materials. Many studies have shown that teens who are regular readers and library users achieve more in school.
The spokesperson this year is John Green, author of many teen books, most recently The Fault in Our Stars. John visited here several years ago and we feel a special bond with him; I imagine every library he has visited and every teen he has talked to feels likewise….he's that kind of guy!
KPL will celebrate with a Teen Read-a-Thon on Saturday, October 20. Teen will be gathering pledges of food items for Kalamazoo Area Loaves and Fishes as they read up to six hours at the central library.
If you want to sponsor a teen reader, contact our teen service desk at 553-7807. It will be a win-win event….teens reading leisure materials to benefit our local food bank.

he looked like he was very nervous the other day, he did hit 97mph 3 or 4 times
Cincinnati Reds
Righthander Nick Travieso has been put on a similar path as 2011 first-rounder Robert Stephenson. Travieso spent the first two months in extended spring training before joining low Class A Dayton in early June. In his first start, he showed a 91-94 mph fastball that touched 97 and an inconsistent breaking ball.
I was at that start. He was sitting a little higher than that from everything I saw and heard.
Just watched his two inning outing against .230-hitting Lake County tonight.
He did not look like a prospect. The announcers did not say what his velocity was, but the swings Lake County was taking against him were consistently big. Second time he's thrown against that team, and they were on his fastball like it was 83 MPH. Up in the zone all the time. Secondary stuff.....looked like maybe a little slider. Not sure if he threw a change. If he did, it was never close.
Just very, very rough. I'm disappointed, because I was hoping to see something to get excited about.
"Baseball is a very, very complex business. It's more of a people business than most businesses." - Bob Castellini
Doubt you get any velocities. On Tuesday the gun in Dayton was off by 7-10 MPH. Guys throwing 97 on scout guns weren't hitting 90 on the scoreboard.
Hopefully it was an anomaly.Easily the worst start he has had. Whatever it was, he simply didn't have it. Slider was flat when it was near the zone and when it had bite, it went 59 feet. I saw a decent change up in there.
Doubt you get any velocities. On Tuesday the gun in Dayton was off by 7-10 MPH. Guys throwing 97 on scout guns weren't hitting 90 on the scoreboard.
But hey, looking forward to those short season teams getting into action now. Great time of year.
"Baseball is a very, very complex business. It's more of a people business than most businesses." - Bob Castellini
For sure.So far, in the very limited sample size that is his season, it was an anomaly. He is a long term project kind of guy who has all of about 100 innings on his arm as a starting pitcher in his entire life. He is going to take some time.
Still, though, I have to say I'm not sure what's there to recommend him other than that he got drafted in the first round. When you see the swings they were getting on his fastball tonight, I really have to wonder -- even more so than before. It actually reminded me a little of Colorado hitting off Villarreal a week or two ago.
I don't like saying stuff like this about a ballyhooed Reds prospect, and I hope he lights it up in the second half, I really do.

I found this name in my family tree about 5ish years ago when we were trying to decide what to name our son.
She would have been my great great grandmother and her name was Anavieve Charlotte. I am assuming its pronounced like Genevieve but starts with Ana. It seriously is the only decent name in my family tree. There are Myrtles and Mildreds and other similar names that I personally find atrocious. lol.
Just wondering what everyone thought? I can't find any history on it so I am assuming my family was dabbling in creative names back then. Anavieve's mother was named Anna, which is something I noticed in my family tree was that a lot of daughters were named after the mothers which I thought was kind of odd, but maybe she was trying to name her daughter after her and added a twist?
May 13th, 2013 07:59 PM #3
I think it's interesting. I like the sound, but it looks incomplete as a spelling, like there should be a letter in from of the first A. Overall, if it is a creative name, it's most certainly not a horrible one; it sorta has its own classic vibe to it, especially if it came from a mush of Anna and Genevieve.
EDIT: Annevieve looks much more complete and classic, kudos to cheridel for mentioning this spelling.

I've actually seen the name Annevieve before. Personally, I prefer the Annevieve spelling to the Anavieve one. I do like it, but not as much as Genevieve.
May 13th, 2013 08:24 PM #7
I like Annevieve better as well, but it is very interesting and I think you should use it if you want!Just a teenage writer with a fascination for names!

SGT.FANG !:thumbup:thumbsup
voltaire how did you know that
I'm not sure what a Jira is... But if you say your full username it sounds like a Japanese guy telling people he is a fan of a certain movie.;)
Welcome aboard. Your dad's the man.
Ha! I read your profile! I saw that you posted about your dad! :thumbup
I mean no disrespect to gojirafan or his father with this question but what makes him(Sgt.Fang) a legend?:o
I am guessing it is his craftsmanship.I have seen his "name" mentioned everwhere on this site but never truly understood why a Sgt.Fang helmet is one of the best
I am sorry for how odd this might read but I always say if you want to know something than ask.
Again no disrespect to Sgt.Fang and gojirafan.
Definitely his craftsmanship!
I wish I had an image of the TIE helmet one of our prospective garrison member's has...the pictures speak for itself!
(Apologies to SNL's infamous Bill Brasky skits. :lol :lol)
- Sgt. Fang's family crest is a picture of a barracuda eating Neil Armstrong.
- Sgt. Fang's poop is considered currency in Argentina.
- I once saw Sgt. Fang scissor kick Angela Lansbury.
- Sgt. Fang once punched a hole in a cow just to see who was coming up the road.
- Sgt. Fang did all the makeup on the Planet of the Apes movies.
- Sgt. Fang drives an ice cream truck covered in human skulls.
- We once had a bachelor party for Sgt. Fang. He ate the entire cake before we could tell him there was a stripper in it.
- Sgt. Fang killed Wolfman Jack with a trident.
- Sgt. Fang sleeps eight hours a night! Well, he's pretty normal when it comes to that.
Ha Ha, good one Eric.
I once saw Sgt. Fang scissor kick Angela Lansbury.
Sgt. Fang counted to infinity - twice.
When Sgt. Fang sends in his taxes, he sends blank forms and includes only a picture of himself. Sgt. Fang has not had to pay taxes, ever.
If you spell Sgt. Fang in Scrabble, you win. Forever.
:lol :lol :lol
You got the Sniffer on this...Does not ring a bell. However there is some relaxation on "yours truly" . . . . For you see my friend. If you were my son, You would be called "Son_of_Sniff" on this message board! LOL!
Just kidding my friend!
Have a great day!
Is Sgt. Fang Chuck Norris?
Chuck Norris wears a Sgt. Fang mask on Halloween.
Chuck Norris checks his closet and under his bed for Sgt. Fang before going to bed every night. You can never be too careful.
Sgt. Fang sleeps with a night light because the dark is afraid of Sgt. Fang.
Was doing some searching, found this, and about cried laughing
First time seeing it myself. "Sgt. Fang counted to infinity - twice."
...I died.

'Yet the reality is the team lost $10 million and there is a very real possibility the NHL may have a shortened season in 2004-05 because of prolonged negotiations between the league and the National Hockey League Players' Association over a collective bargaining agreement. The team's losses were about 40 percent more than what Golisano had initially projected before he bought the Sabres.'

These are some shots we managed to take from the Coolwater cruise to DOTB. I will have more up later. (all shot on the iPhone because I forgot my real camera)

Hey guys. I've been a frequent lurker on this site and finally decided to register. I'm working on a custom Mando right now and hope to one day (funds allowing) start on a Boba.
I've finished up my helmet and my chest armor, weathering and all. The armor is from cyanide (like advertised..its affordable. lol) and the helmet is Mystery, I believe.
I would load the images here, but they're way too big. They can all be found here at my blog.
Let me know what you think...likes and dislikes. Thanks guys, glad to be a part of the community!

Wootalyzer's Pricing Post! - The price of today's woot item is saved here for future reference------------------------------------------------------------Screaming Woot Monkey$1.99 + $5 Standard OR $11 One-Day OR $8 Two-Day ShippingCondition: New*DISCLAIMER* Wootalyzer! is in no way affiliated with Woot!, and this post may not always be here!
i have this one already :/
Zorro the Woot Monkey?
Well this is the second monkey for this woot off.
(that I am aware of)
anyone else think it's funny that its cape says one day one deal
Too bad there's no elf or Santa monkey....
so tempted to buy this monkey just in case i miss out on something but so far the woot off has been pretty meh so i wont.
New style monkey. Bah, humbug.
only because he screams. i bought a non-screaming one once and "oh emm gee" that guys is sooooo boring.
Bought a few screamimg monkeys last year and one of them were defective and it would start screaming at the slightest movement. So I did the right thing and gave it to my buddy who's son loves monkeys. Was later told the monkey now resides off I95 in a ditch after they couldn't take it screaming after every bump they hit while driving.
Now i know woot is lying about the original item price about all of its items. I have been a member since the old days and its has been a few years and i dont remember them monkey selling for anything more than 1.99. Not sure why Alien Invaders showing the original purchase price as $9.99. I knew Alien Invaders cant be trusted. Woot is been single handedly destroyed and we cant do anything about it. Thanx for nothing amazon.
Will only buy self spanking screaming monkeys now.
this monkey better break out and start woot offs on all the categories~!
Has anyone else noticed that all the other woot-offs (kids, sports, wine etc) have ceased? Pretty sure this is the end for this woot-off as well. Oh well.
This must be a truly unique monkey.

Welcome to Amazon, how my I help you? please hold.
It hasn't been around in awhile. I think it has been mentioned that they sometimes give them away with Facebook / Twitter promotions and such. I don't do Facebook / Twitter, and I haven't seen a Big Ol' Cataclysm since the redesign of the site when it totally crashed the woot-off for most of the day.

Have you every called Amazon's customer service? I've never been asked to hold or had to wait, their callback service is fast and they have perhaps the best customer service in the industry.
C'mon everybody, here we go! Off to neverland!!!

I agree. They are very helpful and friendly. Very prompt with what I needed.
To be fair, similar is $4.99 ($6.99 normally)on Think Geek. http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/8f00/
