I'm starting to paint my Boba parts soon, and I'm looking for a decent airbrush. I've been recommended the Evolution ones, but have no clue on what accessories I should buy, or what type of compressor would be good.
I can see that there is different needles and stuff, what do I need for a complete Boba paintjob? :)

Kieran Gibbs is revelling in his more advanced role on Arsenal's left flank.
The 23-year-old - Gibbs celebrated his birthday on Wednesday - has always been an attack-minded defender after starting his career as a winger. But this season he has been further forward than usual.
Gibbs' average position in the 0-0 draw at Stoke was more advanced than striker Lukas Podolski's. The England international says that is not just down to his instincts.
"The boss is always telling me, ever since pre-season, to play high and wide and stretch the team, to let the midfielders have more room," Gibbs told Arsenal Player.
"It's part of my game as well and I feel I play the game how I think it should be played. That's probably where that comes from.
"I feel my performances have been positive this season," added Gibbs. "I've kept fit which has been important for me - especially over the last couple of years where I struggled to stay fit.
"I always said if I can get a good run of games under my belt, I can always get stronger and hopefully be more consistent - which is what I'm doing at the minute. I'm happy to be fit and I'm happy to be playing."
The next test for Gibbs and Arsenal comes in the shape of Olympiacos on Wednesday night. The left back helped his team get off to a winning start in Montpellier earlier this month and he expects another tough task at Emirates Stadium.
"We know Olympiacos are going to be a difficult test," he said. "We've had a good start in the Champions League with the win in Montpellier, so it's important that we're at home, we get another win and we can put ourselves on the front foot to finish top of the group.
"Montpellier was a big test for us. I think we knew what was coming for us in the second half. When we went in at half time 2-1 up, you could tell that they were going to put the pressure on and we did very well to soak up the pressure.
"We defended well as a team and did enough in the end to get the three points – that's what's important, the three points and a strong start to our Champions League season."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Aaron Vance isn't taking his job as commencement speaker lightly. As Vance put it, he's spending his last days of high school "thinking about the words that will push us into life."
Each of the three Hardin County Schools high schools and Elizabethtown High School choose students to speak at the graduation ceremony. For those students, their last days of high school include the additional component of crafting words that will add meaning to their classmates' time in school and cheer them on as they move to the next phase of their lives.
As students study for the last exams of their high school careers, the senior sponsors at local high schools are facing a test of their own — staging a commencement ceremony for hundreds of graduates.
Planning the graduation ceremony begins months before the ceremony takes place. The process generally starts with ordering caps and gowns, as well as tickets, announcements and programs for the event.

"If you can read this thank a teacher."
I have seen this quote on a bumper sticker several times. However, I must admit I haven't taken the time to personally thank all the special teachers and staff who made a lasting impact on my life. Have you?
I believe we get so absorbed in the fast pace world and the even quicker pace of our lives that we sometimes take for granted the gifts that surround us. I know I do.

Elizabethtown Independent Schools has enjoyed a long-standing partnership with Elizabethtown Community and Technical College. This partnership has increased opportunities for students and enhanced the development of their college and career readiness skills and abilities. When designing their program of study, students have multiple and varied avenues from which to select through ECTC, and each approach has unique advantages that benefit the students of our district.
Agriculture education and involvement in FFA doesn't limit itself to four years of high school. Members often take lessons and experiences into their adult lives and careers.
The National FFA Organization has some famous names among its alumni. Matthew Fox of television's "Lost," Garfield creator Jim Davis, rocker Don Henley, athlete Bo Jackson, former President Jimmy Carter and country music stars Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift are among the noted names of former FFA members.
The National FFA Organization's creed states "I believe in leadership from ourselves and respect from others."
Leadership is one of the core functions of FFA and John Hardin High School's chapter is taking leadership a step further.
Advisor Jeremy Hall has, with the assistance of students, developed an independent leadership growth program to help students evaluate and improve their leadership skills.
The National FFA Organization's motto is "learning to do, doing to learn, earning to live, living to serve." Central Hardin High School's FFA takes the "living to serve" part seriously.
Members are active in supporting individuals and organizations in their community through fundraising events and, in some cases, donating their labor.
"I think it's good for these guys to get out in the community and really help someone," advisor Derek Smith said.
Because it is an ensemble play, "Godspell" offers opportunities for actors to develop special skills, as Central Hardin High School students discovered when they presented the play earlier this month.
CHHS drama coach Sarah Ryan Dakin said developing improvisational skills and taking risks are among the benefits that specific production provided.
When Dorothy sets off to see the wizard of Oz, she is joined by others seeking a heart, a brain and courage.
For students at North Hardin High School, being involved in a production of "The Wiz" also has been a journey of sorts to find a variety of traits.
Appropriately enough, senior Joshua Navarrette found the courage to play the Cowardly Lion.
"Two years ago I never thought I'd be a lead character," Navarrette said.
When it comes to graduation ceremonies, tassels, mortarboards and the notes of "Pomp and Circumstance" are clear indications — tradition is important in commencement.
Most ceremonies include traditions commonly found at commencements around the country, but some local schools work to include aspects that are special to their students and faculty.

Wow, that was a big hive! How was your survival rate using the bee vac on such a hot day for such a long job? I know I've heard you say in the past that you don't like to use the vac when it's really hot out.
I am using pool vacuum hoses now thanks to Schawee. They are really fantastic, large interior and smooth. Also added regulators to my Walter Kelly's and survival rate is extremely high. I'd say less than a 1% loss, which is phenomenal for any bee vac.

adding text to a plot erases plot?
I have the following very annoying problem in generating plots and
other graphic stuff.
I searched the Archives and the Web for help but I was not able to
solve it.
Maybe it is a trivial issue so I really hope someone can help.
When I add a text cell to a plot, it happens that the text cell
"overwrites" all what is drawn at the right-hand-side of the cell. It's
like the text cell had a white background that extends indefinitly on
the right and covers the plot.
For instance, a simple command is:
Plot[x,{x,0,1},Epilog->{Text["a line",{0.3,0.5}]}]
The graphic result is Figure1 posted on my webpage
The same happens with the Ticks of the Frame (see Figure 2), and also
if I use different ways of adding text to a plot, like
Show[Graphics[{xxx,Text}]] (see Figure 3).
I'm running Mathematica 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) on an Apple
PowerBook G4.
The problem appeared after a while, so it can be I toggled an option
that I don't remember (unlikely), but I tried a complete reinstallation
of Mathematica without success.
Did anybody hear of the same problem? Can please anybody help?
Thank you very much.

As far as the bbl goes, PPSH 41 & PPS 43 PARTS : Buymilsurp.com, Your source for military surplus.
I personally would do the bolt & carrier from ak 74 parts, and avoid the EODjim route.
If you are doing a blowback Tok 15...my adaptor would work well with the olympic 9mm bolt and barrel extension. the use of a 43 barrel or 41 barrel would be a bear to make it feed due to the difference in bolt design between them and an AR as well as the difficulty getting them adapted to fit the AR upper reciever......best bet is making a barrel from a blank. If you want a blowback, get an oly bolt and barrel extension ...it'll work the best but if you want the best.....go gas...:ar15:it is sooooooooo much nicer. for a colt style blowback...the mag has to go back in the magwell and an auxillary feed ramp installed to get the round to feed correctly....trust me....in the last few years...I have flogged all of the above mentioned horses.:biggrin:
I prefer the mag forward position for several reasons.....first, no auxillary feed ramp....I ramp the barrel extension....but don't eliminate the locking lugs, second...it allows me to use the mag with no modification....the adaptor I make uses the same latch surface and depth stop on the mags as the original weapon....the pps43. Third, I'm able to use the original AR mag release ...only thing it dosent have is last round bolt hold open, eventually I hope to make a new mag for the AR that eliminates the adaptor....but no real hurry as flawlessly as it runs.
I developed my version of the DI gas operated Tok 15 using old bulgarian 1950's ammo....and had it where it would only malfunction once or twice every couple of mags...and that was due to failure to extract. Once I got 1980's Czech and Romanian ammo...I honestly can't remember the last time I had a malfunction. Damn thing runs 100%, plus it runs cleaner and no worries about out of battery discharge. I just spray it down good with carb cleaner and then a light oil after shooting....and clean thoroughly maybe once a month...and I have a 4140 barrel.
I pretty much don't have any blow back stuff that I shoot any more...my DI Gas op AR45's have no recoil, run cleaner and have no worries about out of battery discharge. I'm doing a 10mm for a customer at the moment and as soon as it is done I have a gas 40 S&W and even a 9mm gas op on the bench partially completed.
If I was gonna build a blowback Tok 15 I'd go with an Olympic bolt and make a barrel as the olympic uses a barrel extension that houses the feed ramp much like a locking breech AR......for a colt style bolt you'll need an auxillary feed ramp which moves the mag back in the well necessitating the use of a paddle release or slotting the mag for the AR mag catch....and I hate modding mags :biggrin:
Eventually I'm planning on producing a bolt of my design for blowback kits that will come with a mag adaptor, barrel, and bolt for shooters on a more restricted budget but it's at least a year off ...need time to build the orders I have, work in the engine shop ( I build engines as a living, but hoping the gun business will put an end to that) and actually develop and test the hell out of it...don't like selling somethng without at least a couple of thousands rounds down range out of the prototype:cheers:
If I missed anything feel free to email me at email@example.com with any questions you might have. I Have the domain registered for the new gun business...but no website up. Keep your eyes open for Macon Armory in the future, once it is up, I'll be doing all things pistol caliber and doing complete guns as well......07 FFL will be back by then. Feel free to give me a shout.....I'll build you one...or build you parts.....or build one using your parts .......or just offer advice if you want to do it yourself, but I'd rather build you one:biggrin:
rudy , so you said 50's bulgarian ammo are no good ? can you build one that works for all tok ammos ?
the 50's is rough...but because of the locked breech...it shoots fine...occasionally you'll have a failure to eject and that will cause a malfunction...but it shoots great...I ran 2400 rounds of it through mine...had three of the 800 round tins and I wasn't gonna throw it away...LOL....it is just that the later manufacture stuff dosent split case necks and such...so it runs way more reliably.
I had 20 tins that is why , lol
Dang! You know your stuff!
By any chance are you building these for sale? :) I dont suppose you have a pic. if not that's o.k.
I am interested in one, if at all possible.
Thanks for taking the time to describe All your work!
Actually I do build them for sale.....doing a batch of 5 right now.....3 are spoken for....the other two still don't have a date......and I am extending the $50.00 discount I was running for Gunco and Weapons Guild members.....yall can thank SDK1968/ditigaf for that.......he's the one who sent me over here..... :D Normal retail for a complete rail system handguard upper with magwell adaptor is $850.00 but as a Gunco member your cost is $800....and if you are really into building...come on over and visit us at weapons guild.......and feel free to put me down as a reference.... Mad Machinist there Mad-Machinist here.
Drop me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com and we can discuss configration. Attached is a pic of a partially finished magwell adaptor...and the laser cut flat it starts from. I'll try and get some pics of my presonal Tok 15 at home tonight....no decent place to take pics of it here at the shop LOL and I'll warn you now...it has been serving as my truck rifle so it'd kinda beat up :D, but I guess that is a good thing...it is reliable enough that I rotate it with the AR45 in the truck...all the 5.56 AR's pretty much stay at home unless I go out to specifically shoot them.
:biggrin:Here is a pic of my personal Tok15...as you can see my guns aren't safe queens....:biggrin: This one still has the prototype mag release and adaptor....still in the white and not trimmed to match the magwell... I'll get around to updating my stuff eventually....
This is the configuration the current stock build comes in...16 inch barrel with mid legnth rail system and no sights. The yankee hill and carry handle was what I had laying around in my junk box...eventually I'll put some kind of optical sight on it, and maybe a laser..... I know a couple of rural dumps where we can go shoot rats in the evening...ought to be a hoot with a laser. I can also do the 1.5 and 5.5 inch flash supressor with front sight base and carbine legnth rail system if that is what you prefer.
While the split clamp gas block does restrict the use of a couple of specific rails.... I can accomodate any of them with a modified yankee hill set screw low profile. Pretty much whatever you want on it I can build.

Lucas: Doing It All
Reggie Bullock had ten rebounds against Florida State on Sunday afternoon.
It just seems like someone should mention that, because, well...Reggie Bullock had 10 rebounds against Florida State on Sunday afternoon.
The achievement seemed to be met with little more than a casual yawn. Roy Williams was not asked about Bullock in his postgame press conference, and the only time the Kinston native's name was mentioned was when the head coach casually tossed off a, "Reggie Bullock was sensational," comment that did not receive a follow-up.
Oh yeah, Reggie. Nice job getting your 20 points and 10 rebounds, pal. Those five assists were decent, too. If he'd only played the game while coming off a foot injury, it's likely they would be casting the bronze statue as we speak. Unfortunately, he simply did it the same way he always does--relatively quietly, occasionally cracking a broad smile when he fires through another quick-trigger three-pointer.
One of my favorite memories from this year--this is what I'll think of when I think of Bullock, like Kendall Marshall's no-look passes or John Henson's long arms throwing down a dunk at Maryland--might be watching Bullock come around a screen, catch, shoot a three-pointer, and then eyeball it as he leans in toward the basket, as if he's pretty sure it's going in, but wants to guide it with his eyes just to make sure.
It usually does go in, by the way. He's shooting 44.4% from the three-point line, best on the team by a wide margin.
But it's Bullock's rebounding that was remarkable on Sunday (You know you are a complete player when you score 20 points, and people want to talk about something else you did other than the scoring). Thursday night, he'd grabbed nine rebounds in the win at Clemson. He considered this to be frustrating. After the game, he was leaving the Tar Heel locker room to go back to the court for an ESPN interview. He saw a bystander with a stat sheet and asked, "How many rebounds did I get?"
The answer: nine.
"Aw man, come on," he said, slapping the wall in frustration-and it looked like real frustration, not pretend frustration. "I didn't get ten?"
Nope, not that time. So what did he do? He went out and got ten against Florida State, and just happened to do it after Williams had spent 48 hours harping on rebounding in the days since the Clemson game, in a game when the head coach was very concerned about Carolina's on-court matchups.
He got his tenth board with 5:08 left, snaking in to retrieve a Dexter Strickland miss and putting it back in with the same motion. He also managed to draw a foul on Devon Bookert, creating a potential three-point play. After sinking the shot, Bullock cruised by the Tar Heel bench and high-fived everyone he could find. Reggie Bullock is not the type to count stats. But...
"I knew that was my tenth rebound," he admitted with a laugh.
This time, he wouldn't have to check the stat sheet after the game. Bullock is now the only player on the roster--he might be the only player in the conference--to have led his team in scoring, rebounds, assists and steals on multiple occasions this year.
If it's possible, Bullock may actually hurt himself for postseason honors because he does so many things well rather than one specific thing exceptionally. He is not a volume shooter or a volume rebounder and doesn't do much of anything in large quantities on most occasions. He just does everything. He is still the Tar Heel who tends to get the ball when Carolina needs a basket; when FSU closed within 53-41 with 13 minutes left, the Tar Heels ran a play for Bullock and he drained a three-pointer. That's a Bullock play.
But so is this: one minute after he cemented his double-double, he caught a pass from Brice Johnson on the left wing, saw a screen coming from Leslie McDonald across the lane, noticed Johnson rolling to the hoop, and effortlessly flicked the ball near the rim, where Johnson caught it and emphatically slammed it through. Highlight, Johnson. Assist, Bullock--one of five, good for the second-highest total in the game for either side.
It was the rebounding, though, that brought the biggest smile from him after the game. He is now averaging 6.6 rebounds per game in conference play, more than, for example, Miami wide-body Reggie Johnson.
"I have to get to the boards," Bullock said, and here he broke into a fairly credible imitation of Roy Williams. "Coach always tells us, 'Get to the boards!' So I try to get there and make something happen."
The results have not been spectacular or stupendous or even drawn much notice. But they have been sensational.

Affordable LuxuryView All 6 Photos >
Transforming a plain bathroom into a true master bath experience with a modern, welcoming feel.
In a down economy, builders, architects, designers, and home buyers are all forced to make tough decisions about costs. The usual show-stopping products—the high-end shiny baubles that get home buyers excited—may wreak havoc on the bottom line in many projects. And most design professionals will tell you that even well-heeled buyers have priorities and budgets. So they make choices. Do they blow the budget on the gourmet range from France or do they get the custom kitchen cabinets that cost as much as a luxury car? When the budget starts ballooning, a design professional is forced to get creative.
Despite working in an affluent area of Maryland, founding principal Nadia Subaran of Bethesda, Md.–based Aidan Design is no stranger to curtailed budgets. The designer has honed her skills for specifying luxury products that meet budgetary constraints but still make her projects look good and her clients happy. Here are five examples that worked.

Thank you Grand Vacations
November 16, 2012
Naturopathic doctors Justin Pollack and Kim Nearpass at Mountain-River Naturopathic Clinic would like to extend a hearty thank you to the owners and staff at Breckenridge Grand Vacations. They put on the most successful wellness fair we have attended to date! It was great to be included not only in the health fair for their employees, but to be part of a larger "wellness plan" that is inclusive of so many wellness therapies. Given the discounts employees and their families get for screenings, bloodwork, and the coverage their plan gives for yoga, pilates, recreation center passes, ski passes, and naturopathic clinic care alongside the usual medical coverage – BGV has one of the most comprehensive wellness plans we have seen. Hopefully this will translate into great savings for BGV, as they are encouraging employees to be truly healthy.
The "passport" that each person carried around to qualify for their prize, really worked at getting people to visit booths and strike up conversations about health and wellness that quickly became meaningful. The food choices were great. Overall, a great health fair, and it's gratifying to see Breckenridge Grand Vacations giving such wonderful services to their employees!"

I smashed up my left MoW gauntlet pretty badly. Cracking a bullwhip in a Fett suit can lead to the gauntlet flying off your arm and hitting the pavement several feet away! I patched it up, but it inspired me to do something I'd been meaning to do for ages.
I'm making my own gauntlets, using the WoF templates handily linked in this forum.
Me, some paper, a couple of For Rent signs and some hot glue. There's a party! I'm going to mold this and make the wearable one out of resin/fiberglass/something, so I'm not worried about how sturdy this is.
Lots of sanding/filling/priming/repeat left to go, but it's shaping up pretty well!

text: To be honest, once we're past the first tier of raiding in Cata, I'll have enough tank gear built up to just swap to the tank presence and tank heroics as frost anyways. Since crit immunity will be built into presence, any gear with health armor and avoidance will make you a not terrible tank. Sure you'd take less damage and go faster if you were actually blood, but considering aoe threat from frost, I can't imagine that a frost or unholy dk with t11 tanking gear couldn't roflstomp their daily heroic easily. Sure you'll never tank raids, but it doesn't mean you can't tank at all.

What I'm wondering is there a place on this site for the music I produce? And if not is it because of what it is, or because of it's production quality, or?
I sincerely apology if this thread doesn't belong here.
Don't worry, this thread is the right place for your question
My personal and honest opinion is this: I think it could be on the limit of the production quality, so it may be rejected. If it would be approved, you definitely couldn't expect miracles regarding the sales you would get. Don't get me wrong: It sounds creative and it looks like you would have lots of good idea. But since the quality on AJ is getting higher and higher and it's a professional market with many professional buyers, it could be that you would have a hard time in this place. But i'm sure, if you use some higher quality sounds and if you are working on the arrangement and mix a bit, you really could get a good composer!
My advice: Try to improve your skills and your equipment even more and practice a lot. When you have done a track, don't listen to it too many times , put it aside for 2 month and try to compare it as neutral as possible with professional tracks. One mistake in my experience is to listen the own track over and over again and be happy and proud for it, but like this you could loose the objectivity and you can't judge it neutral anymore. I'm sure with your skills you will be able to improve your skills more and more!!
I hope I didn't disappoint you, just try to give me very honest opinion and I hope this will help you!!
Thank you for the honest and helpful reply, and for the encouraging words.

How and where we get wisdom by meditation (Bhavanamaya Panna)?
This question is based on the teaching of as per the following link.
I understand very clearly how we get wisdom by hearing and thinking.
I need to know how Bhavanmaya Panna works. Is there a scientific reason?
According to the commentaries, people who can attain the first
and higher stages of enlightenment through mere hearing of a
discourse do not exist anymore nowadays. However, one can
gain knowledge by listening attentively to the wise when one is
unable to think out or reason by oneself. This kind of knowledge
is called Sutamaya Panna (wisdom derived through hearing)
while the knowledge acquired through reasoning is called
Cintamaya Panna (wisdom derived from thinking) and the
experiential or insight knowledge gained through meditation is
called Bhavanamaya Panna (wisdom derived from meditation).
According to the Mangala Sutta, "Association with the wise is
the highest blessing", because when one listens attentively to the
words of the wise, one acquires wisdom from them.
In worldly matters, Cintamaya Panna and Sutamaya Panna are
very extensive in nature. All the arts and sciences one learned at
school and university, were acquired through listening, and thus
constitute Sutamaya Panna. All various crafts and professions
acquired through one's reasoning and research and not through
asking or hearing from others constitute Cintamaya Panna. Thus
to achieve worldly knowledge to enable one to be successful,
attentive listening followed by reasoning or research on the
subject is crucial.

Human papillomavirus HPV is a virus that can cause genital warts, anal cancer, and cervical cancer. It is considered a sexually transmitted disease (STD). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that girls and boys aged 11-12 years old be vaccinated against HPV. Boys can be vaccinated with either Gardasil or Gardasil 9 to protect them against HPV-caused anal cancer, precancerous anal lesions, and genital warts. Girls can be vaccinated with either Gardasil, Gardasil 9, or a different vaccine called Cervarix. Gardasil and Gardasil 9 protects girls against HPV-caused cervical, vulvar, vaginal, and anal cancers and precancerous lesions as well as genital warts. Cevarix protects girls against cervical cancer caused by HPV. This article focuses on Gardasil and Gardasil 9.
Gardasil is the first vaccine designed to prevent both genital warts and cervical cancer caused by HPV. The vaccine is a product of genetic engineering and is considered safe. Gardasil does not contain HPV. Rather, it uses a harmless viral protein to stimulate the immune system and create resistance against the virus. It is, therefore, not possible to become infected with HPV from the vaccine.
Gardasil is recommended for girls and boys as a 3-dose series between 11-12 years old. For the vaccine to be most effective, adolescents should complete the series before their first sexual contact in order to have time for an immune response to develop. The vaccine may be given starting at 9 years old.
If you did not receive the vaccine when you were younger, recommendations for the HPV vaccine series include:
- Girls and women aged 13-26 years old, especially those with a suppressed immune system
- Boys and men aged 13-21 years old
- Men aged 22-26 years old if they are gay, bisexual, or have a suppressed immune system
Although it is not specifically recommended, men aged 22-26 years old can also get the vaccine.
What Else Should I Know About Gardasil?
Gardasil is not a treatment, but a prevention measure. The vaccine will not help those who already have HPV. However, most people do not contract all 40 types of HPV at the same time, so the immunization would still be recommended as a preventive measure against the HPV types that a woman or man does not have.
Also, Gardasil does not prevent infection with the other HPV types that are not contained in the vaccine. Therefore, the vaccine does not replace the need for routine Pap smears to screen for cervical dysplasia (a precancerous condition) and cancer in women. Women and girls severely allergic to yeast should not be immunized with Gardasil. Also, the product is not recommended for pregnant women.
More on HPV
The HPV lives on the skin or mucous membranes of infected people. There are often no symptoms of HPV and many cases go away on their own. Although the body's immune system is often effective in getting rid of many types of HPV, other types of HPV can cause genital warts and, more seriously, cervical cancer. Fortunately, the vast majority of HPV infections do not lead to cervical cancer.
The transmission rate of HPV is high because most people who are infected do not know that they have HPV and, therefore, do not take necessary precautions. Even more importantly, HPV is spread by skin-to-skin contact and not via blood or bodily fluids, like most other STDs. Anyone who has ever been sexually active has the risk of getting and passing on HPV. Because there are no symptoms, a person can have HPV for years and not know they are transmitting it. Condoms are not entirely effective in preventing HPV infection because areas that are not covered may be infected. However, using latex condoms has been associated with a lower rate of HPV infection in women.

Discussion in 'February 2008' started by roscoe36, Feb 17, 2008.
Chat will be open for the game. http://www.pistonsforum.com/misc.php?do=flashchat Have fun!
i'm in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Dang, is there a worse all-star game in pro sports than this one? I guess the NHL is just as bad. Can't blame Sheed for wanting to be in the Bahamas. What a waste of time. I guess if you're a PHX fan, this is the kind of game you like: No defense.
Sheed made a left-handed 3. Impressive.
It's definitely better than the NFL Pro Bowl.
It looked like Flip Saunders was coaching the East in the 2nd half. He didn't adjust his lineup to counter the West going Big, he never called a timeout and everyone was jacking up 3s each time down the court.
CB is really in a shooting slump since yesterday. 0-6 at the 3 pt land, that's ugly. Hope he did that on purpose to keep on flying under the radar.
Doug Collins said that Sheed could beat Bosh at a game of Horse with Sheed shooting left handed.
The East pulled it out nicely with some good lineup adjustments. Small ball worked.
Not a great showing from the Pistons this weekend. Billups, Cash and Lamb did not make the cut in their competition, Rip stepped over the 3-pt line in the 3-pt contest on his last shots and ended up with a 14. Billups shot was off in the all-star game. Rip had a decent game shooting 4-9 and Sheed had 2 blocks. Entertaining game though. Lebran looked like he was playing at a higer level than the rest of the players at times. Late addition Ray Allen made the difference in the 4th quarter.
MVP should have gone to the guy who was responsible for the win. La Bron had some nice stats, but Ray Allen in my opinion won that game with his 14 pts in a 3 minutes span near the end or the game to keep the East in it when the sleeping dog west was about to steal it I think La Bron agrees with me
I thought about that too and they mentioned it on the telecast.
This all star game sucked, and i never thought i'd say this but the reason was; No Kobe Bryant. Mcgrady, and Carter would've have helped make it interesting as well. Also, the West probably would've won with Kobe. I never realized how he alone can make a game interesting, and not just when he was on a sucky team; he stands out even among the top caliber players.
Allen scored a handful of points in a short amount of time but Bron Bron is the bigger name. Billups was -18, Rip was -20 and Sheed was -8. Ouch. Then again, it makes no difference.
I thought the Piston 3 did fine in the game. Sheed had some excellent blocks and a lot more minutes that I figured he get. When CB, Rip and Sheed was in, notice that Doc went with who was with them the last time, Pierce. Also put in Bosh who was a lot like Tay. Defense started working. Ray Allen was MVP imo.
Are you ever happy............. This was fun game, New Orleans doesn't get alot of TV coverage, so watching CP3 was GREAT IMO. Watching the Pistons, Celtics and Kidd, Wade, and LBJ23 was cool too. We got to see the Pistons if we had Pierce instead of Tay, and Bosh instead of Dyess, which actually could've been if not for YKW. Also, Sheed nailing the trey with the left hand ?? C'mon man, that's just SICK!!!! If Sheed approached the game like KG??.... I can't even imagine, can't fault him too much though, he basically puts sports in the position it SHOULD be in - after FAMILY!!!
I thought that Chris Bosh played a horrible game. He kept turning the ball over, missing bunnies, getting balls slapped away, mis-handling passes, getting beat by his man, etc. I know this is only an All-Star Game, but I was really disappointed in his play.
The 4th quarter was the only thing that was exciting. All i'm saying is i see why players like Mcgrady and Carter get voted in even when they don't deserve it. The game is about entertainment. I love the Pistons as much as anybody, but aside from maybe Sheed they're games are not exactly "exciting". Wade looked awful sans one play. I dislike Lebron so watching him is never entertaining. CP3 and DH were fun. I watched it w/ a few friends. One fell asleep, and the other two started cheering on Yao b/c they thought he was absolutely hilarious which he was. All wanted to FF.
I don't know if some people realize how rare it is to have 3 Pistons in the all-star game and also how most game are not down to the wire like last nights was. No offense but if you are bored with following a team like the Pistons with the kind of success they have had then maybe its time to find a new team or sport to watch.
Some people just like to complain. It becomes a life long avocation with them. Some are lucky enough to become paid critics.

Negron Takes Consolation Title at UW-Whitewater Fall Invite
By Justin Grones (@GronesGB)
WHITEWATER, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – For the Green Bay women's tennis team, each match this fall has been another step in the right direction. The squad continued to show its improvement at the UW-Whitewater Fall Invite over the weekend, highlighted by freshman Claudia Negron (Lima, Peru) taking the No. 2 singles consolation championship.
"The team has continued to make better decisions and shot selections in matches, and our court experience this fall has helped," head coach Sara Schubring said. "We still over-hit at times, but continuing to work hard in practice will help diminish this."
Negron suffered a 6-0, 6-0 defeat in the first round of the No. 2 bracket, but rebounded with a 6-2, 6-0 thumping of Ferris State's Laurence LeBlanc to advance to the consolation championship game against Milwaukee's Chelsea Bailey. Leading 4-1, Negron saw her lead slip before Bailey took the first set 6-4. After the match was moved indoors due to weather, Negron served an ace to take the second set 6-4, and later served another ace to take the tiebreaker and win the match 4-6, 6-4, 10-8.
At No. 7 singles, freshman Noel Peck (Green Bay, Wis.) won her first match in convincing fashion over Whitewater's Maddie Benhoff, 6-2, 6-1. Her run was ended in the next round, however, by eventual bracket runner-up Rebecca Beloungea in a 6-1, 6-0 setback.
The Phoenix will return to the court this weekend for the ITA Midwest Championships, held Oct. 11-13. Green Bay will be competing in the Regional 2 tournament, hosted by Northern Illinois at Boylan High School in Rockford, Ill.

Glenn Beck's Show: Leftism Destroys African American Communities
posted at 5:21 am on October 2, 2009 by Michael van der Galien
Yesterday on Glenn Beck's show on Fox News, Fox Business Network analyst Charles Payne talked about the culture of victimization and hopelessness prevalent in African American communities today and the role leftism played in shaping it.
Payne commented on the tragic death of Chicago honor student Derrion Albert who was beaten to death in Chicago earlier this week. Derrion was a remarkable kid: he may have grown up in a poor household and neighborhood but he was determined to do well at school, worked hard, and took care of his grandmother after she was diagnosed with cancer. His most precious possession was his computer, which his family was able to buy him after saving for it for two years.
According to Payne, Derrion's death wasn't an accident but a sign of what's wrong with African American culture today.
"When I was a kid," he said explaining he grew up as an army brat, living a wonderful life until he was an army brat no more and the family moved to a 'black neighborhood' after his mother and father divorced, "we got beaten up every day for speaking like white people, sounding white, wearing the wrong clothes."
"There's just so much much pent up anger and animosity that these kids [i.e. like Darrion Albert] have to hide their intelligence" or face brutal beatings.
He recalled he always wanted to be a business man, which his mother knew, of course. So he studied hard, did his best, and tried to make something of himself. His mother wanted to encourage Payne so she bought him a plastic briefcase when he was 12 or 13 years old. He was delighted; he knew his mother didn't have money, but she saved so she could buy this – admittedly cheap for our standards – briefcase for her son.
So he took it with him to school and… his classmates destroyed it. Why? Because Payne "acted white."
"I believe a lot of this goes back to when black Americans accepted this liberal premiss that we're not accountable for anything; that because we're descendants from slaves, that you know, 'it's OK, it's not your fault, you're a victim' – and they've created this sort of pool… you know it's not just a physical ghetto I'm talking about but a mental, sort of barrier.
"Where, you see, OK Michael Vick is a victim of the justice system, not a person who committed a crime. That mentality is pervasive. You see it over and over, and it's fed to us and it's fed to us, and it's fed to us – and we accept it. We take it.
"And at the end of the day what we're getting for it: we wait for our welfare checks. We wait for it – people wait for it like 'I wait for my check,' like it's something I worked for. And it has taken away everything; everything that God gave us innately – you know, when you put two people on an island they're going to have certain things innately; they're going to have the desire to survive, to thrive, to do better – all that is suppressed in our community. And what's left is this sort of squalor."
Watch it:
This is exactly what I was talking about in my original post about Darrion Albert's death. Nobody is supposed to address it, but leftism has truly destroyed African American culture – in some ways, it may even have done more damage than slavery and segregation.

The family was gathered for a Christmas gathering, there was laughter and songs and stories being told, but suddenly there came a knock on the door. A little girl ran anxiously to the knock, flung it open and there was Santa all dressed in red. However, instead of a merry Christmas from his mouth, a gun appeared and the girl was shot in the face. Santa then went into the house blazing away, shooting indiscriminately at those he once had loved and with whom he had shared joy. As people fled the house shouting in fear, Santa sprayed a liquid which set fire to the house. Bruce Pardo had just gone through a rough divorce and decided to use the holiday season to stage his rampage of hate. In the end, he got out of his Santa suit, drove to the house of his brother and killed himself. Police found eight bodies in the house as they arrived with firemen to put out the blaze.
It was just another Christmas tale. The holiday season brings millions together in love, but it also appears to unleash the forces of hate and anger. A few days before Christmas, Pope Benedict took the occasion of the birth of Jesus Christ to launch a vicious attacks on gays and lesbians, surely not the time or place to utter words of hate. In the Christian nation of Zimbabwe, a mad man named Robert Mugabe holds millions hostage to his hate and children are starving. The force of love is always present at Christmas, but why does the force of hate show its face?

Unfortunately these sorts of occurrences are all too frequent which is why we talk about these finds. Sure, it's great to share the things that our officers are finding, but at the same time, each time we find a dangerous item, the throughput is slowed down and a passenger that likely had no ill intent ends up with a citation or in some cases is even arrested. The passenger can face a penalty as high as $7,500.00. This is a friendly reminder to please leave these items at home. Just because we find a prohibited item on an individual does not mean they had bad intentions, that's for the law enforcement officer to decide. In many cases, people simply forgot they had these items.

I pay a lot of attention to the sounds they make at different times of the year and in different situations. Bad Grammar covers the basics and a lot of unusual sounds the geese make and when they make them, and it covers calling for hunting, and calling in competition. So I thought it was a pretty complete CD. CD is nice because you can listen while driving, or whatever and don't need to be in front of TV.

- " It was fine. Clean and in a convenient area. "
- 08 Mar 2016 Anonymous France
- " The staff here was amazing - very responsive, helpful and knowledgeable about Little India and Singapore. The facilities though left something to be desired. The bathrooms weren't all that clean, the air conditioning being turned off turing the day made it hard to nap (or get over jet lag) and the wifi seemed to limit the number of people who could use it, making it a bit of a gamble whether or not there was internet. Fine for a short stay of 1-3 nights, but problematic for anything longer. "

Rebecca & Devon
May 26
Carlsbad, California
Q & A with the Bride:
What was the one thing about your venue that made you know it was the one?
Leo Carrillo Ranch was the only venue in California that we considered. I am from South Carolina originally and we looked at several Charleston venues but decided to make things simple by getting married in the state where we live. We knew we wanted an outdoor venue, and Leo Carrillo is just stunning- everything was in bloom in May.
Which three details from your wedding were your favorites?
We wanted a "Southern" California wedding- to bring elements of South Carolina and Southern California together in a big celebration. The food and surroundings really helped bring the theme together. Our photographers really made us feel comfortable and took photos that we look back on very fondly. And I loved having help from Devon's family to handmake everything from the place cards, the fans/programs, and our backdrop- our guests loved posing in front of it throughout the day.
Give us the one moment in your wedding day you can't stop thinking about.
We had our brother-in-law, Matt Sloan, perform the ceremony Devon and I wrote together, and it felt perfect standing outside, surrounded by our family and friends as we were married. It felt exactly the way we had hoped.

Desmond from the U.K. writes:
Hi, my CPU usage keeps going up to 100 per cent, everything is at a standstill, nothing works. Any ideas?
While new computers are constantly increasing their CPU speeds, there are always going to be times where there just isn't enough processing power or memory available to run multiple programs. When your computer's CPU usage jumps to 100%, it indicates some software utility (or combination of different programs) is causing a problem and using up all the processing power. Normally you can resolve this issue simply by restarting the operating system, but if the CPU usage is frequently stuck at 100%, you likely have a bigger problem.
Some programs can be real memory hogs and are prone to causing CPU usage issues. For instance, if you have multiple tabs open in Firefox or Chrome that are all loading YouTube videos simultaneously, the Flash plug-in may crash and the web browser will eat up all the CPU power trying to restart it. In this case, all you need to need to do is identify which program is causing the problem and manually shut it down.
Tap the "Ctrl," "Alt," and "Delete" keys simultaneously and then click the "Open Task Manager" button. Navigate to the "Processes" tab and click the "Memory" button to arrange the currently-running process by the amount of memory they are using.
Click the name of the program at the top of the list using the most memory, such as your web browser or some other software utility. After highlighting the name, click the "End Process" button at the lower-right corner of the window to shut down the program. Wait a few seconds and then re-open the program, at which point the CPU usage should return to normal (unless you have too many programs open at once, in which case you'll need to leave some of them turned off).
Your CPU usage may also be out of control simply because there are too many programs running in the background that don't appear in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. Your computer's manufacturer generally installs third-party software that automatically loads during startup. Any number of tools you've installed on your own may also include extra startup programs. To keep the amount of software running at any one time under control, Microsoft Windows lets you manually change what programs load automatically when the operating system boots up.
To find what programs are loading at startup, open the "Start" menu and type "msconfig" into the search box. Click the "msconfig" tool when it appears in the search results.
Navigate to the tab labeled "Startup" and look through the list to find any programs you don't want to load during the startup sequence.
Remove the check box next to any programs you don't want loading automatically, and then click the "Apply" button at the bottom of the screen. Restart your computer.
If your computer is still regularly at 100% CPU usage after turning off background software and using fewer programs simultaneously, you likely have a spyware or virus issue that's eating up your processing power. If you don't already have a spyware detection tool, download and install a program such as Spybot Search and Destroy or Lavasoft Ad-Aware. Open the program and select the option to run a full system scan.

The Counjuring
"The Amityville Horror" meets "The Exorcist" with a bit of "Paranormal Activity" thrown in.
When it comes to horror movies, it's all about the jump. This one has a lot of jumps. Plus some fine acting, thanks to possessed mom Lili Taylor (the best possessed victim since Linda Blair in "The Exorcist"), hubby Ron Livingston , married ghosthunters Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga , along with Joey King, who played the daughter in "White House Down".
This one's set up like a prequel to "The Amityville Horror", since it follows an earlier haunting investigated by real-life ghosthunters Ed and Lorraine Warren. The movie's end poses the question : is a 3rd version of "The Amityville Horror" on the way??
The opening scenes of supposed real hauntings are terrifying and evened out by the alleged hauntings scientifically explained away by the ghosthunters . So it becomes clear, before we even meet the Perron family , that in most cases, ghosts are imagined.
As with most horror films, the scariest moments are early in the film, because the scares come from what's NOT seen. Maybe it's me, but as soon as the ghost becomes a physical reality, I'm no longer scared. When mom Carolyn is possessed by the ghost, it was Taylor's fine acting, not the fear of demonic possession that most impressed me. It seems all these ghosts look pretty much the same, movie to movie.
This is a total throwback to the horror flicks of the 70's. Hell, it's set in 1970.
"The Conjuring" conjures no gore but lots of scares. It could well leave you haunted by the possibilities.

I believe you asked about my dislike for competition. I am not specifically against dance competitions. I just feel that the choice of using a competition format for preparing and presenting artists of any kind is not the best choice. My experience with this comes from my exposure to the piano competition world. I have been through the experience with my husband of many competitions, some of which my husband lost and some of which he won. (He is a concert pianist). What I discovered is this:
1. The major motivation for the competition is to promote itself, not build the individual winner's careers. I am not saying that some winner's don't benefit. It is just that they usually benefit because they have combined their efforts with some hard work and because others (i.e. managers, booking agents, etc) have also put in some hard work. The next year, when there is a new competition winner, the one from last year is dropped in the shadows. I realise that if a dancer wants to teach, winning a major competition can bring students, so this is a bit different than the piano world where the goal is to perform in concert tours around the world.
2. I don't like the idea of "pitting" artists against each other to see "who's best". To me, a performance and a dance is an inspired and joyful thing. Trying to judge who is best is kind of like trying to judge who prays the best.
3. I don't like the way that people start to behave towards each other when they are operating in an environment of "scarcity." The competition sets up an artificial scarce environment. The goal is to win. There is only one first place winner, etc. So automatically, there is a scarcity of opportunities to win when several couples are entered into a competition. I have always found that if there is enough recognition to go around, the environment is entirely different. People treat each other better and with more respect when they don't feel they have to fight to get their needs met. Also, there is more cooperation between those who have more skill than others when those at the top don't feel they have to fight to protect their position. Of course, I don't mean "fight" literally, I just mean the struggle that develops between people when there is something to be won.
4. I don't like the idea of judges making judgements on who is the best artist without being held to a higher standard. It would be entirely different if there were a standard of dancing that was measurable that everyone knew they would have to meet in order to achieve a certain recognition or level. I have no objection to that. If a dancer met that standard and a judge's only job was to determine if the standard was met, then all would be fair. Also, there would be no reason that everyone who met the standard could achieve the recognition. There could be as many winners as there were skilled dancers. (I realise this causes problems where cash awards are given, but there are other ways of solving this problem). In a competition, however, it is a judge's responsibility to keep their opinions somewhat to themselves. And it is also their job to pick only one first place winner. So, even if there are several couples who might have equal skill and talent, they can only pick one. Because the judges reasoning for the decisions are kept confidential, the dancers competing feel they have to please the judges, not meet a certain standard of dancing. This becomes dancing to please a person, or group of persons. If you were to make an analogy to a political system, you might say that I would be for a government governed by law not by a king or dictator. I would rather see the people establish the law and abide by it than see everyone scrambling around to please the whims of a person in a position of extreme power. I believe that one of the reasons that there are so many behind the scenes "uglies" that can and do happen in some competitions is because the system itself is designed to create those problems.
5. I don't feel that the competition creates an environment that truly inspires creativity. I believe that many people find their creativity shut down in such an environment
6. I don't believe that artists, performers, etc. are being presented with the respect they deserve when they are forced to perform under the conditions that usually exist in a competition. Every performer is deserving of respect and appreciation, no matter what their skill level. Being a producer of musical/dance variety shows for TV/Theatre, I have spent a lot of time making sure the stage is set for a performer to look and feel their best and to be recognised by the audience as worthy of attention. I see competitors often thrust into very difficult situations without that type of support and to me that shows a lack of respect for the work that the performer has been through to prepare their performance.
I know a lot of people who produce and perform in competitions. I have heard both the pros and the cons. I believe that great people can make inadequate systems (i.e. the competition) do amasingly wonderful things in some instances. I don't object to other people doing the competition thing or think that they are "bad" people because they do it. I just question the use of the competition form for any kind of motivation for excellence. It is so pervasive that people don't even think about the alternatives that are available. And there are so many alternatives that I believe would accomplish more towards the goal of building fine performers, athletes and artists and that would develop a social environment much more conducive to showing respect for each person and working cooperatively as a community.
I realise that my views are somewhat radical. However, I would not be surprised if many people started thinking about these things and applying their creativity to finding alternative solutions to the problems of presenting and preparing artists, we might see some really inspired productions and opportunities for dancers.
There is no reason that the business of presenting and preparing artists cannot be approached with as much creativity as we desire to achieve when preparing a performance.
Just my thoughts.

In the new millennium, individuals, societal groups, nongovernmental organizations, governments, and international organizations all have intensified calls for justice. Some seek to address the legacies of past abuses while others envision a step towards the broader redistribution of rights, privileges, and obligations on a global scale. While few would deny that justice is a desirable goal, numerous interpretations exist concerning its meaning, the challenges it faces, and paths towards its realization. These contending interpretations become more extensive as one moves to economic, political, and social relations that extend beyond national borders.
Mission Statement
Established in the spring of 2004 as the Marquette Institute for Transnational Justice and renamed in December 2007, the Center seeks to facilitate greater understanding of the challenges and paths to achieving transnational justice. Marquette University is a Catholic, Jesuit institution with a global reach, committed to intellectual inquiry incorporating diverse faith-based and secular traditions to gain insights into how best to serve others. The Center for Transnational Justice builds on this tradition by organizing scholarly conferences and speaker series, and providing seed money and multidisciplinary networking opportunities for faculty and student research. The institute also works with departments and other institutes and centers at the university to facilitate course development.
The Center supports innovative scholarly inquiry into a wide array of issues of transnational justice with a particular focus on:

Comments about oreilly Take Your Best Shot:
Tim Grey provides a perfect, approachable style throughout his coverage of the most popular questions people have when getting started in photography. When I say getting started, I mean the photographer that has realized they want to do something more than take just the every day snapshot and wants to educate themselves. This is the kind of information you can find around the 'net, but this book does a great job pulling together the most important ideas.The Q&A format works perfectly for these topics, allowing the reader to quickly browse to areas that most interest them. You can read it cover to cover or easily jump to a specific question that applies to you. Grey's writing style is approachable, making every topic understandable to even the most lay reader.This is one of those books I keep around as a great loaner to those frequent friends that are new to photography and turn to me for answers. I can save a lot of time letting them review this book!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A digital photographer's reference with a different approach
By Pam Doughty
from Undisclosed
Reviewed by Steve Cooper from AUSOM Inc www.ausom.net.auA digital photographer's reference with a different approachAuthor Tim Grey started the Digital Darkroom Questions email newsletter in 2001, and since then has provided the answers to thousands of questions posed by digital photographers. Take Your Best Shot is a product of this experience.This is not a book for beginning photographers; rather, it's intended for those who have a good grasp of the essentials of digital photography and image manipulation, but who have problems or questions not addressed by the typical manual or Help system.Each of its ten chapters addresses a dozen or more questions chosen to cover a broad range of topics. In keeping with the book's general approach the answers are not what you'd call finely detailed, but will very well suit the reader with a basic understanding of the issues at hand. Answers are typically accompanied by high-quality colour photographs, diagrams and/or screenshots. The book design is easy on the eye and a good table of contents and index make it easy to find questions relevant to a topic that interests you. The author's tone is conversational but matter-of-fact.The book begins with chapters on digital fundamentals, cameras and other tools, image capture and the digital darkroom setup. Next it addresses colour management, optimizing in Photoshop CS3, and creative effects. Finally there are chapters covering image problem solving techniques, printing and digital sharing.Given that there are surely as many questions about digital photography as there are photographs, no book of this type can claim to be a complete reference, but Take Your Best Shot does a good job of covering a large number of topics of general interest in a way that moves a little beyond the typical 'beginner's how-to'.Take Your Best Shot; author Tim Grey; published July 2008, O'Reilly; ISBN 9780596518257; 228 pages; US$34.99.

Zion the centre of blessing: necessity of judgment
Thus re-established, Zion, the mountain of Jehovah, will be the centre of blessing and peace to all the nations (chap. 2: 1-4). This puts the invitation to the people into the prophet's mouth to come and walk in the light of Jehovah. Why has He forsaken His people? Because they have learnt the ways of the heathen. Well, the day of Jehovah shall be upon all the glory of man, and upon all his idols. They may cease from man, for God's own people on the earth, the place of His rest, shall be judged and smitten by their God (chaps. 3, 4). But in that day shall the Branch of Jehovah be glorious, and the earth shall be blessed. He who smites binds up the wounds by introducing the Messiah, and by Him blessing the earth. The remnant will be holy when the cleansing of Jerusalem shall have been accomplished by the judgment and the fire of Jehovah. Jerusalem shall be protected and glorified by the manifestation of Jehovah's presence, like the tabernacle in the wilderness. Such is the form in which the introduction to this prophecy is presented with much force and clearness.Synopsis by John Darby
