no way to cancel account
i cancelled my subscription to vaultpress after a short testing and had a fast refund of my payment, so that part was ok. But then i was trying to delete my vaultpress account, and… no way! vaultpress doesn't let you desactivate or delete data of websites you activated vaultpress for or your registration account data…
I'm cancelling my Vaultpress licences
After 3 years with Vaultpress over 3 sites, I'm cancelling my subscription.
The answer is simple. Support, or rather, lack of it.
4 days ago, I decide to transfer one of my sites back to my shared hosting account.
Vaultpress refused to restore my old site. I raised a support ticket and continued investigating with Hostmonster support.
To cut a long story short, 4 days later my site is still down. I have raised 2 emergency tickets to Vaultpress but still no word.
I don't care that their product is supposed to be 'the best'
A software company of this size that offers ZERO support their customers is worthless.
After 3 years I've decided to cancel all 3 of my Vaultpress subscriptions. I've used Blogvault before and it's just as good, and I imagine they will at least have somebody answer support emails before a 4 days timespan has elapsed.
Goodbye Vaultpress.
The support is brilliant
I've had several encounters with the support team now and each time they've been totally brilliant. Really knowledgeable and good at finding solutions super fast. I can't really comment on the plug-in because I've never run a restore yet but it certainly looks the business and I'm confident it will work very well. Great product – try it!
superb plugin for safe running of website
Vaultpress is great plugin if you want to run your website without any problem. It gives real time live backup, security check and support. Happiness Engineers of Vaultpress is very supportive and any kind of problem I face, they help me. When I migrated from wordpress.com to wordpress.org and I knew about the vaultpress plugin and after installation I am more than 100 percent satisfied for its service.
Great service and excellent support
After using several WordPress plug-ins to back up my site, that intermittently worked and didn't, I've found VaultPress to be awesome.
I don't have to think or do anything. If there's a problem with my back (recently my hosting provider made a switch without telling me) and the support team quickly helped get things back on track .
I'm super happy I've made the switch to VaultPress. Thanks guys – really excellent product 🙂

People have a grim fascination with shocking stories - and the more outrageous, the better. From gambling and gunmen to insider trading and infidelity, we find it difficult to turn away from a spectacle. The publishing industry has always appreciated the value of guilty pleasures, as has the news media. These books about the darker aspects of human life (and death) satisfy morbid curiosity, and many have become collectible.
With that in mind, while attempting to remain within the bounds of good taste, AbeBooks presents books and ephemera showcasing the notorious, infamous and scandalous. Enjoy!

"This is way more than just spicy as anyone can make it so hot you only taste pepper. These are very well balanced, foolproof recipes from all over the map, even West Africa, and a great Indian section. People have always loved the dishes we have made from this book. I just wish we had a hardback copy, as the paperback is really disintegrating at this point. I don't have a single other cookbook, except Moosewood, from which I have more repeat recipes."

Chicken, Dinner, Easy recipes, Healthy recipes, Meatloaf recipes
- 1 kg chicken breast mince
- 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup pasta sauce (1/2 for the meatloaf and ½ for the glaze)

My wife isn't the strongest person in the world, so she would have difficulty racking a slide with a strong spring. I'm not sure a revolver would be the best option for her. But I'm trying to get some suggestions on what might be a good, small handgun for her to use in case I'm not home and something happens and she needs to defend herself.
Give me your best suggestions on something suitable for a small, older woman.
My wife has a TCP with pink frame. For the cost it's a nice pistol and trigger pull is preferred over my LCP.
snubbie loaded with .38 special
Ccccccc what? Ccccccccccc Hawks!
I would strongly suggest the Sig P238. It has the lightest, easiest to move slide I've ever experienced (many have noted that feature), and, if loaded with the correct defensive ammunition, it will do any job she's likely to have to take on. Recoil is simply a non-factor. It's also very light and quite small. The only things you will have to train her for are the external safety (which may in fact raise her confidence level) and carrying or storing in condition one, and not fainting when she hears the price.
IMO, snubbies, while favored by many, are a great deal harder to shoot well than a .380 with real night sights like the P238 (I question whether she'd want to put enough range time in to become proficient with one) and as a general rule (and in my experience) have much sharper recoil than the P238. One hates to make blanket statements, but I think I'm pretty safe with those.
The REAL problem is that you'll take the P238 for yourself (as many husbands have done) and will then have to buy another one for her.
baretta tip up barrel or a S&W 351pd
You plug 'em, I plant 'em
...kid can't read at 17 (Garcia/Hunter 1985)
Lack of preparation on your part does not necessarily constitute an emergency on mine
You stated why she would possibly have difficulty with a semi-auto. What is the basis of why she would have trouble with a revolver?
Is she going to be carrying it or will it be a home defense gun?
Sent from this... Using that...
I will echo the pilot. My wife broke her left wrist a few years ago and we have tried many, many guns. The very best for her is the Sig P238. It is the easiest by far for her to run the slide, yet it feels very substantial for a small pistol. We are very please with it. Her other easy gun to run (salute to Mr. Hawk Glock ) is a Ruger LCR .38 special. It shoots extremely well and as a revolver, there are no slide problems. The Sig is more comfortable for her to carry and also has the advantage of a faster reload compared to the LCR. Give the Sig a try and I'm sure she will be very pleased.
Definitely give them a look, though. She has an LCP that she carries because she likes the size. She liked my TCP better (HATES the trigger on the LCP) but the slide spring was too strong for her to rack.
I'd like to throw in a suggestion for a full weight S&W J-frame, like this Model 10 snubnose:
Since your wife won't be carrying this pistol (right?) you could also consider a larger revolver which she could use if it's not too heavy for her, such as a Model 10 with a longer barrel or a Model 19 like this:
The longer barrel and extra weight will help with recoil and accuracy.
But if small is the dealbreaker, I'd say go with a full weight J-frame like the Model 10 snub. The weight will help a ton with recoil and won't beat her hands up.
Don't get me wrong, I love my TCP...but it is a handful. If you do go the small auto route a Pachmayr or similar slip on grip is highly recommended.
An intruder will be incapacitated by tear gas or oven spray, but if shot with a .357 Magnum will get angry and kill you.
An intruder will be incapacitated by tear gas or oven spray, but if shot with a .357 Magnum will get angry and kill you.
i worked as a salesman in a gun store for about six years, and i've given this matter a great deal of thought.
1. semi-autos: can she rack the slide relatively easily? as earlier posters have said, try the Sig 238. or go with a Beretta with a tip-up barrel as another suggested and bypass the problem altogether. the problem with the Beretta's is that the ones with tip-up barrel have no extractor, so getting a dud round out of the chamber will take some time.
2. semi or revolver: can she reach the trigger easily? can she press the trigger easily? on a J-frame or P238, i wouldn't expect the first to be a problem, nor should trigger press be a problem with the single action Sig. with the revolver i have two suggestions: if the DA trigger is too much for her: a. learn to shoot it like a single action revolver. have her cock the gun with her off hand thumb before every shot. this will bring the trigger closer to her, and reduce the force needed to fire the gun. with practice, this can be very fast. watch the top SASS shooters sometime. OR, b. if her fingers are narrow enough, have her fire the gun using BOTH index fingers on the trigger.
3. if you go with the Sig (or any semi-auto), teach her the malfunction clearance drills and have her practice them until they're automatic. this will be trickier with a Type 3, or Double Feed malfunction if you have a Beretta with tip-up barrel. (no extractor)
4. with the Sig, or any gun with a manual safety, my recommendation is that she be taught to disengage the safety immediately, but to keep her finger off the trigger until she needs to shoot. the chance of an AD with a light trigger (indeed, with any gun) is very real, but i worry more about the gun NOT going off when she needs it to. i would certainly not protest if you chose otherwise on this point.
5. if you decide on a J-frame, go with an all steel gun, and get a 3" or 4" barrel. S&W used to make a stainless steel 3" J-frame with adjustable rear sight and a fiber optic front sight. imo, this would be perfect. you may need to experiment with different grips to find the ones she likes the best. i would lean towards grips that allowed all three non-trigger fingers on the grip. (in other words, NOT Boot Grips)
6. resist the temptation to load the most powerful rounds (in the J-frame). give her standard pressure rounds. imo, go with MagSafes if you want the maximum stopping power with minimum recoil.
7. be certain she is willing to shoot a human being before arming her. the WILLINGNESS to use deadly force, clearly communicated to the bad guy(s), is what she MUST have. as one writer said, "They're not going to ask to see your 'Expert' qualification. All they need to know is that you've got a gun and you're just aching to use it. No one wants a slug in the guts, even if it got there by accident."
8. above all, remember that you are getting a gun for HER. YOU may think that the Acme Whiz Bang Death Ray is the without-a-doubt the BEST self defense gun in the world, but if she doesn't like it, she won't practice with it, and she probably won't have it if/when she ever really needs it.
p.s: almost forgot: an unusual option: IF it fits her, and you can find one, consider the Kel-Tec PMR-30. a lightweight, not too expensive .22Mag semi-auto, with a 30 round magazine capacity. loaded with Remington 40 grain PSP or the new Hornady Critical Defense rounds, she shouldn't have to reload during any unpleasantness, and the recoil should be negligible. not a gun for concealed carry, though. and the magazines must be carefully loaded - hide your man card, and read the instructions!
Last edited by sensei2; June 10th, 2012 at 02:45 AM. Reason: adding p.s.
Sorry (good thread) but I don't know what a TCP is.
Kahr CM9, Beretta PX4 SC .40, Ruger LCP/LM, Dan Wesson .357, Beretta 21A .22, Four Aces .22, H&R .22, Marlin .22 rifle and 1946 Remington 12 gauge.
Seriously though, how small and how old? My wife is a 5'1", 105 lb, 54 yr old blue eyed babe and she had an LCR 357 (loaded with .38s) that she had no problem with. The trigger pull on the LCR is probably the lightest trigger pull you're gonna find on a revolver. They also make an LCR .22 that holds 8 or 9, but.....it's only a .22. Yes, a .22 has killed plenty of folks. Based on my and my wife's experience and opinion, I'd suggest the LCR.

Hello all. I'm new to the forum and handgunning. I current have a Ruger Super Redhawk in 480 Ruger with a 7-1/2" barrel. I've only shot it less than 100 times but have decided that it's a little too much for me (). I dove into it and bought all the necessary reloading gear and components for it. It sits in the safe now.
What would a person expect to get for a used SRH in 480 (both at a retail store and private sale)?
Thanks in advanced Guys!

A few weeks ago I was a guest on a local (Minneapolis) Cable TV show hosted by the Minnesota Humanists.It was a really interesting conversation. One of the comments that struck me was the host mentioning that he had looked around the internet and had noticed that there were some people who were not, shall I say, "big fans" of mine. I mentioned that Christianity is a big family with many squabbles. He said, (my paraphrase) yes I have seen that, but it is not quite as bad as it is in the … [Read more...]

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Thank you for using justanswer
I am truly sorry about your son
Unfortunately, the IRS is correct
since this is a non-spousal inheritance of pre tax dollars, it does need to be totally withdrawn by the 5th year
Let me get this in writing for you
"The 401k plan may require you to take all of the money out of the plan no later than Dec 31 of the fifth year following the year of the person's death. You could take a little out each year, or wait until the last year to take it all. You will pay regular income taxes on the amount withdrawn, so you may want to take more out in years where you expect to be in a lower tax rate."
The quote above came from this website:
understand that you may be disappointed by the Answer you received, as it may not necessarily be favorable to your situation. Had I been able to provide an Answer which might have given you a successful legal outcome, it would have been my pleasure to do so.
Please let me know if you have any further questions
I don't feel I got any information that I didn't already have. I am still working on this problem, I have now been advised to seek help with IRS to review my case since I was not advised on the 5 year rule.
BarbaraIt is my goal to always strive to provide excellent service to each and every customer, and I am truly sorry that you felt that my service was lackingYou asked if the 5 year rule for non spousal IRA was an IRS rule, and I gave you the IRS link verifying that information.I admit that I was surprised that the people that you spoke with at Fidelity were not aware of this 5 year rule, since it is right on their website: https://www.fidelity.com/viewpoints/non-spouse-IRAWhich includes this paragraph "If the original IRA owner died before reaching age 70½ (before MRDs would be required) you also have the option to distribute your inherited IRA under the five-year rule. This allows you to take distributions however you like without penalty, as long as all assets are completely distributed from your inherited IRA by December 31 of the fifth year following the IRA owner's death.It would be helpful if you had the names/dates/times of the people you spoke with originally at Fideity. The ones that recommended you get an attorney. Barbara, I am so sorry that you have to deal with this while still grieving for your son.

"Gay zombie porn" movie banned from Australia film festival
By Pauline Askin
SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian film board has banned a Canadian movie featuring "gay zombie porn" from screening at the Melbourne International Film Festival -- to the delight of the filmmaker.
The Australian Film Classification Board told festival organizers not to show "L.A. Zombie" directed by Canadian Bruce LaBruce as it would refuse classification for the film featuring alien zombies scouring Los Angeles for dead bodies and gay sex.
The Melbourne International Film Festival's Executive Director Richard Moore said LaBruce's film could be deemed controversial but it was a surprise that the board refused to allow the festival to show the film as planned on August 7 and 8.
"I don't necessarily think it's porn. I think it probably verges on the edge of porn. It's an extreme form of queer cinema, with a very high art background to it," Moore told Reuters.
"I could possibly understand if we were trying to show the film as a general release but not in a festival environment with screenings relatively late at night properly contextualized."
It is the first film to be banned from the festival since Larry Clark's "Ken Park" in 2003. "Ken Park" revolved around the abusive home lives of a group of teenage skateboarders.
Moore said LaBruce, whose film "Otto, Or, Up With Dead People" debuted at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, was delighted by the ban as such a move always created more buzz around a film.
"I know Bruce LaBruce is particularly happy about this because it's giving him enormous publicity for his world premier at the Locarno International Film Festival film festival (in Switzerland on August 5)," said Moore. Continued...

poor fuel consumption and Juddering X drive
I recently bought a six month old X3 2.0D xdrive.
Couple of bad things that are irritating me. I am a careful driver doing a mix of driving (av speed shows 60km ph) yet my fuel consumption is over 9l per 100 kms. I bough the car on the basis this would be around 6l per 100kms so am really disappointed.
Also, I changed the the front tyres and the car developed a judder. The dealer told me that, even though I still had at least 200kms of tread on the back tyres, that with the X drive you had to change all tyres at the same time. I changed the rear ones two weeks after the fronts and although better, I still get a nasty juddering when turning corners, especially at very slow speeds.
I'm taking it to the dealer for a service but thought i'd see if anyone had any ideas or exeriences so I could fight my corner with them.

Legal Professional: Build Your Business
My friend's husband is a manager at a chain resturant here in PA, he is having an affair with one of his bar servers, could she sue the company for pain and suffering or somethng???? Thanks for any information.
No company is liable for the actions of its employees in a situation that you describe.
Presumably, the sex is consensual.
I seriously doubt that the employer is paying its employees to have sex, even if it happens on the clock.
kvogel:My friend's husband is a manager at a chain resturant here in PA, he is having an affair with one of his bar servers, could she sue the company for pain and suffering or somethng????
She could file the complaint, but she'd lose the lawsuit and might get hit for sanctions for filing a frivilous claim. There are two problems with what your propose. In order for the employer to be liable, the actions of the employee must (1) be a wrong that she can sue for and (2) must have been an act that is within the scope of employment. This fails on both counts.
The server isn't liable for anything because PA, like most states, has eliminated the old torts of alienation of affection and criminal conversation that used to allow someone to sue their spouse's lover as a result of the affair. Nor does your friend have any civil claim against her husband for the affair. Instead, that's settled in any divorce action they may have. Thus, there is no civil claim against the employees of the restaurant here, failing the first test.
Second, even if PA still had an alienation of affection cause of action, the employer is not liable because the affair is not within the scope of the duties of the employees. In other words, the employer didn't hire them to carry on an affair. They do that on their own time. Thus, this fails the second test, too.
I had a friend whose husband cheated on her with a subordinate. So she, the wife, snitched him out to the higher ups in the company. Well, he and his mistress both got fired and the wife divorced the husband. All that led to was her with a jobless ex spouse who could not afford to pay her child support or alimony so she lost her house, her car, and a lot of other possessions. Tell your friend to think twice before she opens up a can of worms like that.
I agree with all the reply's. Your friend should consider seeking a consult with a Divorce Lawyer in her area.
I'm not a lawyer. This is only my opinion /suggestion. Most Replys' are based on information provided by the "original post" (OP).

Representative Michael Grimm and the Reasons Employers Pay Under the TableBy
You can read all about U.S. Representative Michael Grimm—the New York Republican indicted last week on charges that he paid workers under the table at a Manhattan restaurant he co-owned and managed—at Bloomberg News and elsewhere on the Internet. The U.S. government says Grimm, a former FBI agent, skirted federal and state taxes and lied under oath about cash payments. Grimm's lawyer, Elizabeth Kase, says prosecutors are guilty of "abuse of power, the distortion of facts, and the targeting of political opponents."
Beyond the mechanics and politics of the case, the Grimm indictment serves as a window into the world of employers who pay workers under the table. It's a stratagem with obvious appeal, letting business owners report lower revenue, limiting income taxes, and lower wages, reducing employer contributions to cover Social Security, unemployment insurance, and other payroll levies.
Businesses that pay cash wages are hard for the government to track, says Catherine Ruckelshaus, general counsel at the National Employment Law Project, a labor rights advocacy group. She points to a 2008 study by her organization examining low-wage workers in Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York that found 93 percent of workers (PDF) paid in cash didn't receive an itemized statement of earnings and deductions.
The absence of paperwork makes it easy for employers to pay workers less than the minimum wage, and presents an obstacle to employees seeking workers' compensation or other benefits, Ruckelshaus says. It also makes it difficult for state and federal regulators to track how employers treat workers.
The Internal Revenue Service, another government body with an interest in tracking worker pay, also struggles to suss out employers that cheat on payroll taxes. U.S. businesses underreported employment taxes by $15 billion (PDF) in 2006, the last year for which the agency has published a detailed estimate—a small fraction of the $450 billion in underreported taxes that year. Viewed through another set of data (PDF), the IRS levied 6.8 million penalties for payroll tax infractions in the year ended September 2013, but only 230 of those fines were for employment tax fraud.
While enforcement actions have been rare, the penalties for business owners that come to the IRS's attention are stiff. In March, the manager of a Chinese buffet in Waterville, Me., was sentenced to 14 months in prison for concealing $250,000 in wages, according to the agency's website. Last August, the owner of a Los Angeles painting business was sentenced to 18 months for concealing $1.6 million from the government.
Those cases may be relevant to Grimm. Prosecutors say the lawmaker kept two sets of books and paid cash to "a significant portion" of employees at his restaurant, Healthalicious—a "protein shakes and power salads" joint on Manhattan's Upper East Side. The indictment alleges that those tactics helped Grimm underreport gross sales by $1.3 million, and wages by "hundreds of thousands of dollars."

Wow, I don't. You may have to group your purchase with two, or maybe three, different places I am guessing. Maybe you would luck out and find at least one with free shipping....

Milt Sparks, Blade Tech, Wilderness & Rings Mfg? within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Does anyone know ONE place that I can mail/web order the following items for a Walther P99 (.40S&W)? - Milt Sparks Summer Special 2 Holster? ...
Does anyone know ONE place that I can mail/web order the following items for a Walther P99 (.40S&W)?
- Milt Sparks Summer Special 2 Holster? See http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/sto...il.aspx?p=9922 for details.
- Blade Tech external Kydex holster, preferably with Tek-Lok?
- Blade Tech Double Mag Pouch?
See http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/sto...RS+%26+POUCHES
- Wilderness Tactical 5-Stitch Instructors Belt? http://thewilderness.com/catalog/def...628ae36854fa11
- Rings Mfg Blue Gun (training simulator) Walther P99?
I had all these items on order with Botach, but finally after 2 weeks they advised me that NONE of the items are in stock or will be obtained any time in the near future (they are no longer selling Blade Tech at all).
Since S/H charges can kill you on small orders, I'd prefer NOT to have to order one item from each vendor.
Wow, I don't. You may have to group your purchase with two, or maybe three, different places I am guessing. Maybe you would luck out and find at least one with free shipping....
Coimhéad fearg fhear na foighde; Beware the anger of a patient man.
Thanks. Haven't found anyone with free shipping yet on these items.
I sent an Email query to Brownells asking about Special Ordering all but Wilderness belt, since they carry the other items for the 1911. I can hope that they can special order them with ONE shipping fee?
I was just hoping that someone may have spotted multiple of these items at one source.
BTW, my "instant notification" on this thread was set, but didn't work!
Blade Tech has a HUGE order to fill for GSA and as such civilian orders are taking the back burner. Thankfully a friend of mine gave me a heads up real quick, and I got in my orders with a known sales rep prior to the GSA contract. LenS, I can give you the # of my contact @ Blade Tech, and you can drop my name if you like, but you will not get free shipping, I might be able to get you LEO pricing.

Edmund Burke

Henry Ward Beecher
Apachon, Thanks for the info and offer . . . I may take you up on it.
BTW, I am an LEO. I use my C&R FFL discount most often because places like Brownells won't give me both discounts (they are both the same I am told) and it is easier to send an FFL than deal with credentials unnecessarily.
Whatever I get, I need to have in hand and have built confidence with it by June, as I'm taking a Randy Cain defensive handgun class in mid-June. I plan on using my 1911 (all geared up for that) and the Walther P99 as a backup gun for the class.
I can say that the Milt Sparks Summer Special VM2 that I received from Brownells (1911) a few weeks ago is absolutely the MOST COMFORTABLE CCW holster I've ever owned (and I have a large box full of holsters )!
Check Pro Shop at Gunsite.
Keep the shotgun handy!!
KC, nice selection of products. Unfortunately if it isn't for a Glock or 1911, "it doesn't exist at Gunsite!"Originally Posted by KC135
Absolutely nothing for the Walther P99 at Gunsite.
Lightning Arms Sports is a good site for Milt Sparks holsters. They usually have good stock and quick turnaround. You pay a little more for the holster, but you get it in a week or two, instead of months. They also have Wilderness Tactical belts. No Blade Tech stuff, though.

ya might want to try Ivanhoe in Billerica ma.....Plank St just off the Burlington Turnpike
?? for you......did you ever live in Wilmington?
Haven't been to Ivanhoe's in a number of years. Also last time I was in there, if you don't have a badge, they didn't want to deal with you! [Yes, I have a badge, but the one time I stopped in that location they had nothing that interested me at the prices they were asking.]
No place is likely to have a P99 .40 SS2 holster in stock. After checking around, I ordered it direct from Milt Sparks early this week. Should have it in 10 to 16 weeks!
I canceled my order with Botach (not that they'd ever have the goods anyway) early this week.
I ordered the Blade Tech OWB holster and mag holder (both Tek-Lok) from Brownells as a special order . . . 4-5 week delivery expected (but with significant C&R FFL discount).
I ordered the Wilderness Instructor belt from GunnersAlley early this week as well.
I used to work for DEC in Maynard, but never lived up that way.
I bought some of my first guns from Ivanhoe's when they were in Watertown Square.
I once worked in Colman's Sporting Goods in Danvers Ma......It was tough working there, due to all the goodies that came across the counter..LOL.......I would go to Ivanhoe's in Watertown.....they were a huge Colt dealer.and always charged top buck...
I used to hang out at the Colman's in Canton and watch people get cheated left and right when they brought their old guns in for trade!
Ivanhoe's was NEVER a bargain, but they had lots of interesting stuff and I was just starting out in the shooting sports, so they got a lot of my money. They required a LTC and FA-10 for my first pellet pistol (S&W 79G)!
Thank you for mentioning us.

I haven't yet become comfortable with the concept of owning multiple carry guns, each smaller than the previous, ostensibly for different social occasions. An example would be a full size .45 / 9mm compact / Snubby / Seecamp / NAA.
When asked, people who do this sort of thing often say something like, "Well, I wear my .45 most of the time, but when I can't wear a cover garment I stick the 9mm or the snubby in my pocket. And when that isn't appropriate, I carry the Seecamp or the NAA in a wallet holster". When I hear that, I imagine an armed man from the 1400's, well schooled in the arts of Johannes Liechtenauer, explaining that, "Well, I carry my longsword most of the time. When I'm not, I carry my dagger. And if it's not socially appropriate to carry my dagger, then I carry a sharp rock". That doesn't make much sense to me, either.
We've all heard that amusing quip, "The first rule of gunfighting is to have a gun", but just any gun won't do. Defensive sidearms are notoriously marginal fightstoppers. Basically, if it won't reliably kill a deer, don't use it on a man. You might get him mad. Small sized guns are for experts. Very few men can use a snubby well. Small caliber guns are for people whose affairs are in order. I understand that men have been killed by .22's, but the purpose of a defensive handgun is not to kill one's attacker. It is toreliably stop his behavior. Reliable stoppers begin with the 125 grain .357 mag, skip the entire 9mm family (or so I believe), and begin again with the .40's.
Please don't cry, "It's not the round, it's where you put it!". That's something only a democrat would say. Larger calibers develop larger wound channels. It's 0'dark:30 and there are multiple aggessors. You are in fear of your life. You know that after the first shot everyone will be in movement. Lots of rounds will be fired. And you're going to resolve the situation with your .380? If it were possible to strike, on demand, small (the places you are likely to stop a man with a low powered bullet are quite small) moving targets in the dark, then it seems to me that police departments would issue .22 shorts and save all that money.
So I'm still uncertain about carrying anything but a full caliber (starts at .40 and goes up) sidearm. If the social occasion does not permit an adult pistol, perhaps neither your nor I belong there.
I know I'm probably missing important points in this discussion and would deeply appreciate a little direction. The matter is too important to leave unsettled.

The Global Standards Symposium that ended in Johannesburg, South Africa has called for measures to limit the emission of greenhouse gases using information communications technology.
African governments were urged to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and their carbon footprints while ensuring that the expansion of the global communications network is done in an environmentally friendly manner.
ITU Focus Group on Climate Change was also asked to research into the impacts of Information Communications Technology - ICTs on the reduction of greenhouse gas - GHG emissions.
Malcolm Johnson, ITU-T Director, noted that UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon had underscored the need for ITU to play a significant role in addressing climate change terming it the moral challenge of our times. "Industry is faced with probably its biggest ever challenge but also its biggest ever opportunity in terms of corporate social responsibility. There is the challenge for the ICT industry to limit its own emissions, but also the opportunity to maximize its potential to help other sectors reduce their emissions. This could make for a tremendously good news story for the ICT industry," said Johnson.

Kendra Wilkinson Upset After Husband Hank Baskett Blows Super Bowl
Kendra Wilkinson was spotted crying after her husband Hank Baskett dropped the ball on a game changing onside kick by the Saints.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is set to debut a new testing procedure for the 2011 model year that will make it more difficult for new cars and trucks to earn the government agency's coveted five-star safety rating. Just as interestingly, the recent influx of electronic safety gadgets, such as lane departure and collision warning, will be included in the testing regiment as well.
NHTSA will calculate one simple-to-understand grade for each vehicle based on how it manages to perform throughout the agency's testing. While the revised parameters promise to make safety-minded comparison shopping between new automobiles a bit easier, it also means that pre-2011 ratings will not be directly comparable to the new ones.
A total of 55 new 2011 cars, trucks and minivans (including the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze seen above undergoing GM's internal safety testing) will be tested by NHTSA with the new procedures, and the list is made up of both brand new models and some of the more popular nameplates Americans seem most likely to purchase in large numbers next year. You can check out NHTSA's official release and the initial list of what cars will be subjected to this new testing regime after the jump.

Results 1 to 12 of 12
I spent an hour at the Goodwill today.
I had to go to the City to pick up a car part for DH.
And I decided to make a day of it. I spent a whopping $14 on food -- a Breakfast Burrito at a small fast food place; and $10 on shrimp fried rice at a restaurant for lunch.
But, at Goodwill, I had a bit of sticker shock. $10 for women's dresses -- no matter whether it was Liz Claiborne or Walmart's George brand. Shoes were $6, again, no matter what brand. Women's suits were $20. Like I said, sticker shock.
So, I was very selective what I brought home. And I'm pleased with the results.
My goal was to look for easy-care and comfy vacation clothes.
- One pair of slip on clogs, $6. The brand is Born, hand crafted footwear ... with a slash through the 'o'. Pronounced Byorn? Anyway, they seem to be high-quality, and comfortable. I'm wearing them now, and I'll probably choose these for vacation.
- One Chico's Traveler cardigan in black. $6. I will have to hem the sleeves, though. Not identical, but similar to this one: http://www.chicos.com/store/browse/p...&maxPg=3&size= It's really the 2nd piece in my 2ndhand effort to build an easy-care travel wardrobe. I'd like to end up with something like this: http://www.chicos.com/store/browse/s...catId=cat40010
- Tiny Longerberger basket. $1. Signed on the bottom, and I think there's a $20 original price on it.
- Hardbound copy of To Kill a Mockingbird, which I've been wanting.

It sounds like you did pretty well! I don't have a Goodwill in my area...All we have are the Salvation Army Stores, but I haven't noticed them getting too bad with their prices yet!Sponsored Links Remove Advertisements06-09-2009, 12:15 AM #4
You know, if I think about it, I saved a bunch of money by spending that hour at GW:
- Chico's cardi would have cost me around $70, after shipping.
- Longerberger basket would have cost around $20.
- Byorn shoes would have cost around $70.
- And To Kill a Mockingbird would have cost around $8. In paperback.
So, instead of spending $15, if I had bought the same things brand new, I would have spent $168.
(But I really wouldn't have bought the basket or the shoes at full price.)06-09-2009, 09:19 AM #5
I have a pair of Born sandals that I bought on sale 4 years ago. Even though I wear them nearly daily in the summer. They still look brand new and are so supportive and comfy.
Good finds for your hour spent at the Goodwill.06-09-2009, 09:35 AM #6

You got amazing deals even with the higher prices! I skipped over to the Born link & they are currently out of my price range, but I'd love to own several pairs. I think you are paying for quality with Born. Truly a deal for $6!06-09-2009, 11:20 AM #8
You know, we have several thrift shops in my area & I've found that Goodwill does NOT have the cheapest clothing. But! They consistantly have the better brands. So sometimes I shop at the Salvation Army, on their 99 cent days, & sometimes I shop at Goodwill where I will pay $10.00 for a dress. It depends on what I'm looking for.
Most of my work clothing, I am willing to shop at Goodwill and spend $5.00 a shirt, or pants & $10.00 a dress simply because they are better brands & tend to hold up better. You just have to have time... look at the labels & try everything on. If you do that, you can find some really good deals - just like you did!06-09-2009, 09:04 PM #9

A Beaten Paris Hilton
While I'm all for giving out a bitch slap every now and then, this is meant to be literally and not physically. Well it looks like Paris Hilton, was more than bitch slapped. All signs are pointing towards Paris' maybe ex-boyfriend, Nick Carter. His short tempter has been witnessed many times in the past, and his jealousy of any attention that Paris receives from other men has led to huge arguments between the two.
The New York Post, who has never been known to be wrong, give a second hand report that Nick Carter beat Paris.
. . . after she and Carter joined pal Amanda Demme at the Argyle Hotel, where Demme throws a weekly party. "They were dirty dancing together," said one Argyle spy. "They were very lovey-dovey, staring into each other's eyes. We all thought they were back together."
But after Hilton and the ex-Backstreet Boy left the Argyle to party at another club, Joseph's, the mood turned sour. "Nick wanted to leave, Paris didn't," said a Hilton pal, adding, "Nick forced Paris to leave, he made her get in a cab with him." Hilton alleges to friends Carter later lost his temper. Friends say Hilton is "scared to death." The pal added: "He has major anger-management issues . . . We have seen bruises on her before and asked her about them. She has always denied it — until now."
Another Paris pal added, "Nick made his bed, now he has to lie in it." (Miu comment: that cannot be a real quote!)
A friend of her sister, Nicky Hilton, confirmed to yet another source that both Nicky and Paris claim the person responsible for Paris' bruises is Carter. Hilton's rep, Tracy Shaffer, declined comment.
My advice to Paris, if it was Nick: file a police report and dump his ass.

Tennessee: 2-0 (2-0 SEC)
In our last event: Our men's cross country opened their season with the Belmont opener on August 30. Half of the Volunteers that competed finished in the top 50 in the field of 116 runners. Coach JJ Clark stated, "It was exciting to see the men's team get going. They've had a good summer. No one graduated from last year, so I look forward to seeing their progress as the year continues."
Vol Spotlight: The Tennessee spotlight is on junior Peter Okwera. Okwera won his first collegiate cross country title in the Vol's season opener in Nashville. Racking up five top-ten finishes last season as a sophomore, so breaking through into the winners column is just the first of hopefully many exemplary achievements resulting from his dedication to his craft.
About this event: The men's race this weekend will be an 8k on the rolling hills grass course at Florida's Mark Bostick Golf Course. This is the 25th running of this event, and this course will be the home for the 2013 SEC Championships in November. The race will begin at 7:55 a.m., with awards presentation to follow at 9:30 a.m.
Tennessee: 0-2 (0-2 SEC)
In our last event: At the Belmont Opener, the Lady Vols had our top six runners place in the top 55 of the field of 101. Director of track and field/cross country JJ Clark stated, "Our team on the women's side needs to gel a little more. That needs a little work. We'll see what we can do in the next six weeks. I believe we'll come together and run a much better race."
Lady Vol Spotlight: Emily Williams made a huge impact in her collegiate debut for Tennessee at the Belmont Opener. Williams finished 17th overall and was the first Lady Vol to complete the course with a time of 18:49.05. In his post-race remarks Coach Clark said, "The women had a bright spot in Emily, our newcomer, being our first runner this meet. I thought that she did a great job on that."
About this event: In the 25th running of this event, the women will run a 6k race on the rolling hills grass course at Florida's Mark Bostick Golf Course, which will be hosting the SEC Championships in November. The race will begin at 8:30 a.m., with awards presentation to follow at 9:30 a.m.
Team competing include: Tennessee, Auburn, Embry Riddle, Flagler, FAMU, FAU, Florida College, FGCU, FIU, Florida, Florida Southern, Florida Tech, Johnson & Wales, LSU, Miami, North Florida, Northwood (m)*, Nova Southeastern, Pasco Hernando (w)**, St. Leo, South Carolina, USF, St. Thomas, Stetson, Tampa, UCF (w)**, Warner (m)*, and Webber.

Cuisine: Malaysian
Location: Perth CBD (another location in East Victoria Park)
Not far from Jun's Japanese, I spied another interesting Malaysian restaurant called D'Nyonya Penang Restaurant. I went up to the windows and had a look through the menu and was sold. I had gone for another late lunch so I had a choice of table but there were a few patrons enjoying a leisurely afternoon.
Along the right hand side is a continuous bench with cushions while everyone else gets a chair with a string of tables in between. Nothing fancy about the place but it has an inviting feel. Sitting down and looking at the menu, the dishes remind me just like when I had visited restaurants in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I particularly fancied the Penang Char Koay Teow ($10.50). Within a short time of placing my order, a plate well filled with my meal was presented to me. I was really hungry and couldn't wait to dive in but the meal was still hot given it came straight out of the wok. I ate a bit around the edges till things cooled down but I loved it despite getting my mouth a little bit burnt. Patience is a hard quality to display when very hungry and with a delicious looking meal staring at you.
I really enjoyed the silky smooth and soft texture of the wide cut flat rice noodles. The been sprouts, squid, prawns, and all the other ingredients combined really well in making this an excellent lunch. I remember the same dish I ate in Chinatown in Kuala Lumpur and this was not that far off. The only thing missing was the crunchy salty bits of pork fat and the intense smokiness of the wok immersed into the rice noodles. The rice noodles in my meal did take on a slight smoky flavour but I really enjoyed the meal and flavours. Looking through the menu, there are pictures with some dishes so they certainly caught the eye and I wouldn't mind trying some of their other dishes.
After wolfing that down, I also enjoyed a large glass filled with Teh Ice ($3.50) which is chilled red tea with condensed milk. Lovely flavour of the tea and the milkiness of the condensed milk with ample sweetness. Excellent meal and I enjoyed the tea. There are vegetarian options available and they also have halal food – Halal Certificate from the Islamic Council of Western Australia. There are other restaurants in this chain in other countries.
D'Nyonya Penang Food Review Summary
Verdict: Coming here and perusing the menu took me back to my time in Kuala Lumpa, Malaysia. I thoroughly enjoyed my plate of Char Koay Teow which had delicious soft silky smooth rice noodles with ample seafood and excellent flavour. The iced red tea washed it down. Cash only.
Price: Reasonable
Taste: Delicious
Value: Excellent
Recommendation: Recommend

Top Ten Gifts To Make Him Melt!
It's the holiday season and you know what that means. It's time to fight your way through crowded parking lots and malls just to bite your nails in anxiety over what to get your man this year. I've gotten several requests from listeners, asking for some great gift ideas and this is the first article out of a 3-part series to help you out.
Before you end up wrapping another tacky tie or, God forbid, a pair of house slippers, check out these more creative gifts that are sure to light up his Christmas morning.
1) Lessons
Whether he's always wanted to learn how to play the guitar or a decent round of golf, this is the gift that keeps on giving all year long. Not only does it last for months into the new year, it also shows him how thoughtful you are to consider how to make his life better in the new year.
2) Oversized Bean Bag Chair
No matter how mature your man is, he's gonna love coming home and plopping down on his chair full of fun. A premium bean bag chair is just as comfortable as a recliner for a fraction of the price. As an added bonus, you can join him on the bean bag for some cuddle time.
3) Wrinkle-Free Shirts
He may not fully appreciate this one until he wakes up late for work or forgets to pick up the dry-cleaning. They come in a variety of styles, colors, and brands, and their surging popularity is a testament to how useful they can be in a pinch. Besides the practicality of this gift, it will also feel good for him to slip on a shirt straight from the dryer that doesn't have his favorite football team logo.
4) Breathalyzer
It may not be the sexiest gift in the world, but nothing says "I love you" like a personal breathalyzer. Every 30 minutes, someone is killed from a drunk-driving accident; every other minute, someone is injured in an alcohol-related crash. If your man likes to occasionally enjoy an adult beverage, having a breathalyzer in his glove compartment can make the difference between him getting home safely or ending up in jail, or worse. Whether it's a company party or his weekly happy hour with the guys, it can sometimes be difficult to realize when you've had one drink too many. Not only can this handy gift save his life or prevent a potential DUI, it also shows him how much you care about his safety.
5) Personal Coffee Brewing System
Forget his having to wait in line at Starbucks or re-heating yesterday's coffee on a busy morning. Personal brewing systems from brands like Keurig or Hamilton Beach make every cup of coffee taste just as delicious as the first one. These systems brew one cup at a time, and usually take 60 seconds or less to do so. After one week of fresh, premium coffee in his kitchen, he'll wonder how he ever lived without it.
6) Cologne Sample Pack
If your guy is like most guys, he finds cologne that he likes and commits to it for the next decade. This present will add a welcome change to his nose and yours. Simply buy two or three mini versions of various colognes and you're done.
7) Gift Cards
Okay, I know that this is a pretty common gift, but the possibilities really are endless. Just think of the stores and shops where he spends the most money and let the cashier do the rest. Whether it's for Home Depot or Gamestop, he'll be sure to get something that he really wants and you can avoid the anxiety of disappointing him on Christmas morning.
8) iPad
If he doesn't already have one, an iPod is a gift that is sure to please. Not only is the iPad a great tool for staying organized, your man will get a kick out of all of the apps he can download. From helping him train at the gym to re-igniting his love for Scrabble, he's bound to find all sorts of unexpected uses for this trendy device.
9) Personalized Gift Basket
While gift baskets are nothing new, you can put a spin on it by making one that tailors to his interests. For instance, a beer connoisseur would appreciate a basket of eclectic beers from boutique breweries while a photography hobbyist will go crazy for a basket full of filters, gels, and film stocks. Visit your local craft store for the basket, gift wrap, and ribbon and you're halfway there.
10) Concert Concierge Service
Whether he rocks out to Bon Jovi or likes to rap right along with Lil' Wayne, this gift is sure to please. Simply purchase a pair of
Of course, if your Christmas budget is smaller than the dots on a ladybug's body, there's always the oldie but goodie. Greet him on Christmas morning wearing nothing but a gift bow and a smile!

Amherst Senior Center in the Bangs Community Center
Did you know that Amherst was voted by Money magazine as one of the top ten places to retire in the country? Amherst offers a beautiful New England setting full of traditional architecture, the beauty of a rural setting, and the amenities and resources of a college town. In fact, Amherst is home to the Learning in Retirement program sponsored by the area's five colleges (Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, Smith, and the University of Massachusetts).
One great benefit of living in the Five College area is that bus service among the five-college area towns (Amherst, Belchertown, Hadley, Northampton, South Hadley, and Sunderland) is FREE during the school year. During the off season, fares are half price for elders.
Besides the cultural riches created by the surrounding colleges, Amherst has resources specifically aimed at the interests of elders. The Amherst Senior Center provides a focal point for information and referrals as needed, as well as a wealth of Senior Center activities. Visit the Amherst Senior Center in the Bangs Community Center at 70 Boltwood Walk. If you need directions, call 413-259-3060.

Have Ford Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Yes I do. I am changing the actuator for the front cabin air. Note - a different expert from this service told me i needed to change the temperature blend door actuator because the front vents (floor and panel) and defroster are blowing cold air when I have the thermostat on warm, it is also making clicking noise when i turn the thermostat to warm.
Ron, I misunderstood you , I do not have dual air in the "front" cabin. I assume i will be removing the LH actuator, I have already removed the"retaining" clip from the LH floor console panel and it did not appear to remove easily, should i just pull downwards on the Lh console panel to remove it, according to the diagram there are no more retainer clips and does not appear that i have to remove the top piece of the center console.

Chieftains blank Braves
April 16, 2009
The Tonganoxie High baseball team got its second straight shutout road victory on Wednesday with a 5-0 win at Bonner Springs.
Starting sophomore pitcher Ethan Lorance was nearly spotless in the win, going six innings with seven strikeouts, just three hits allowed and one walk.
Lorance also shined at the plate for Tonganoxie (8-0), going 2-for-4 with a double. Senior Jace Waters also went 2-for-4, scored once and drove in a run.
Dylan Caywood, Rob Schlicht and Dylan Puhr were the only other Chieftains to record a hit. All three had one double apiece.
Schlicht scored twice and drove in a run. Brandon Yoder and Caywood also crossed the plate for Tonganoxie.
The game was scoreless until the Chieftains plated three runs in the fourth and two in the fifth.
After six innings on the mound from Lorance, Schlicth entered in the seventh and struck out one Brave as THS sealed another shutout win away from Leavenworth County Fairgrounds (Tonganoxie also shut out Basehor-Linwood at Basehor one week earlier).
Tonganoxie is off until Tuesday, when the Chieftains play host to Turner at 5 p.m.

text: I just read the other thread about holster material. I have a Bianchi 7 Shadow, that I like very much. Is there any way to make the suede any less abrasive to my pistol?:scratchchin: Im using one for a Glock 21 for my S&W M&P. Fits great. Do you think it will damage my finish as much as a blued gun (I think the M&P's melonite)? Think it's time to sell? I'm planning on ordering a OWB from UBG when the funds are right, until then I'd like to keep the Bianchi in service as long as it doesnt ruine (sp?) my finish. Thanks for your comments!!
