Joshua Cohen represented me in a medical malpractice case. This was my first lawsuit and I was nervous and anxious. By the time he finished prepping me for my case, my nerves and anxiety went away and I was confident to testify. It turns out that he convinced the judge to hold a Frye hearing to see if there was any scientific evidence to support the plaintiff's case and after a convincing hearing, the judge dismissed the case! Joshua's knowledge of medicine and orthopedic surgery was truly impressive. He was able to pick apart the plaintiff's case and I really felt that he left no stone unturned. Joshua's success is not just based on his sharp intellect and confident demeanor, but he is an extremely hard worker. I would recommend him to my colleagues and I would call on him myself again if I ever needed representation.

One of my roles is to serve as the Network Coordinator and help facilitate the Internet filtering. Well, educators are awesome at finding value in tools that others may see as "entertainment". In this case, YouTube does provide a wealth of education resources and this list just touches on a few. Thanks to EdTechReview for compiling this list.

The ownership of the Marampa Iron Ore Project (Marampa Project) located within exploration license EXPL 09/06, which was held in the name of Marampa Iron Ore (SL) Limited, has now been acquired by Cape Lambert Resources Ltd (Cape Lambert).
The Country Manager of Cape Lambert Resources Limited, Chris Gbyl told the Awareness Times Newspaper on Tuesday 9th March 2010 that the acquisition of 100% of the Marampa Project was achieved through the purchase of the shares held by African Minerals Limited (AML) in Marampa Iron Ore Limited, the parent company of Marampa Iron Ore (SL) Limited with effect from 25th January 2010.
Giving a brief history of the investment of Cape Lambert in the Marampa Project, Mr. Gbyl cited that on 1st October 2008, Cape Lambert formalized an agreement (First Marampa Agreement) to acquire a 30% investment in the Marampa Iron Ore Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of AML, and the owner of the Marampa Project.
He said under the terms of the First Marampa Agreement, "Cape Lambert paid an initial scrip consideration of 44 million Shares, committed to sole fund US$25 million towards a feasibility study, and assumed management of the Marampa Project. Cape Lambert was also granted an option to acquire the remaining portion of Marampa Iron Ore Limited for US$200 million less the value of scrip issued and feasibility study expenditure incurred to the date of exercising the option".
He furthered that Cape Lambert assumed management of the Marampa Project on 1st October 2008 and commenced mobilization and field work in January 2009. He added that on the 22nd January 2009, Cape Lambert increased its investment in Marampa Iron Ore Limited to 35% with a further scrip consideration payment of 17 million Shares.
"On 25th November 2009, Cape Lambert announced that it had entered into an agreement to increase its stake in Marampa Iron Ore Limited from 35% to 100% through an all scrip deal with AML valued at $31 million in two trenches" he explained, adding that Cape Lambert is operating over 27 (twenty-seven) mining projects worldwide.
He cited that over the years, Cape Lambert has been engaging on several community developmental projects within the Lunsar community, such as, constructing and renovating water wells, schools, council buildings, refurbishing medical centers, markets, among others. He said one of the companys pipeline projects is to award scholarship to over 200 pupils in Lunsar. At present, he went on, the Cape Lambert project has created employment for over 210 (two hundred and ten) Sierra Leonean youths in Lunsar and hope to employ more as the project expands to other communities in the country.
The Country Manager denies rumours that Cape Lambert is a section operating under African Minerals. According to him, Cape Lambert, was part of the African Minerals under the Marampa project in Lunsar, but that the whole project have been officially bought over by Cape Lambert, who now claims 100% ownership of the project with effect from 25th January 2010.

He knows plenty now, and the Rebels certainly left an impression.
"I just want to be a part of a big family. I don't want to be a part of some cocky guys, I want to be a part of a family. Win football games, hope we win a national championship, but also at the same time have fun. I love this place. It's awesome. I like it."
The 6-foot-6, 290-pound Golson, rated the No. 10 offensive tackle in the country by Scout.com, was hosted by Ole Miss center Evan Swindall and now-sophomore guard Ben Still.
The visit couldn't have gone better, according to Golson.
"I really didn't know much about it," he said. "But I come down here, man, it's an awesome atmosphere. Fun place to be. I enjoyed it a lot. They got pretty girls, they got great facilities, great coaching staff, great family. It's just awesome down here. I love it."
Swindall, a senior, and Still gave Golson the Oxford tour. Sophomore linebacker Denzel Nkemdiche, the Rebels' leading tackler last season, chipped in, too.
"Man, they're awesome," he said. "I couldn't say any other words. They're awesome, man. They love to have fun. Nkemdiche, he's helping out a little bit. It's a good little deal."
Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze, who led the Rebels to a 7-6 finish in his first year, and staff hammered home the idea of Ole Miss as a big family. The pitch seemed to pay off.
"Just how they have a family, the family atmosphere," Golson said of what he liked most about Ole Miss. "They like to have fun, but at the same time, they like to work. I just like everything about them.
Austin Golson
Chad Simmons
Ole Miss offensive line coach Matt Luke, a four-year letterman for the Rebels from 1995-98, has acted as the primary recruiter of Golson.
Golson can relate to Luke, a once-dominant offensive lineman in his own right. In his senior season, Golson anchored a Prattville High School offensive line that produced 285 rushing yards per game.
"He's done a great job," Golson said. "That's an awesome man, one of the best men I've ever met. He's a great coach. Maybe one day I'll be playing for him. We'll see what happens."
Golson is currently committed to Florida State, having made his pledge well before his junior season. He's already visited North Carolina and Alabama. Next up is Auburn, followed by a visit to Tallahassee, Fla., to see the Seminoles.
He'll make a final decision Feb. 3.
"It'll be a tough decision," he said. "I've got a lot of great schools. We'll see what happens."
Golson expanded on what led him to commit to Florida State in the first place.
"Same things as here at Ole Miss. Small town, fun atmosphere, get along with everybody," he said. "To me, it's more than just winning. I like to be able to get along with people, have fun and win at the same time, you know?"
Auburn is new to the fold. He grew up a fan of the Tigers, but what has sparked his interest and led to a visit is the hire of Dameyune Craig. Craig, formerly the recruiting coordinator at Florida State, was hired away by first-year head coach Gus Malzahn.
"I grew up an Auburn fan. My grandparents graduated from Auburn. I need to give them a chance to let me have the opportunity to come up and visit. My coach from Florida State is there," he said.
"I just want to be a part of a big family. I don't want to be a part of some cocky guys, I want to be a part of a family. Win football games, hope we win a national championship, but also at the same time have fun. I love this place. It's awesome. I like it."

I am a bit shocked what has become possible in a country where ppl years ago had their names not next to their doorbells and no ID to carry around all day.
I immediately had to check knit what the interwebz could find about me. squiffy
L.H. in Sussex likes to walk long distances or even run, one is married kept her name (to Leslie Henderson) all are in the correct age bracket 36-40ish. Now we need someone who will log on and is able to cope with the responsibility. The names of her flatmates/housemates are already there in plain view. We might google fb them and ask them ...
Johnny Marr does twitter but not fb.

New study finds that re-segregation is growing in public schools across the country
A new report, conducted by The Civil Rights Project, found that U.S. schools are growing more segregated, even as the U.S. population grows more and more diverse.
New York, Illinois, Michigan, and California top the list for the most segregated states for African American students. According to the data, two-fifths of Black students attend a school that is less than 1 percent White. In Michigan, a third of Black students attend a school that is less than 1 percent White. Researchers say this segregation is worse than the south before Brown v. Board of Education. The data also shows that southern states, like Arkansas and Tennessee, are growing more and more segregated. Latino students also face segregation, especially in western states like California and New Mexico where the percentage of Latino students in public schools is highest.
How does Washington state stack up? Using data from the National Center for Education Statistics for the 2009-2010 school year, researchers found that Washington has one of the highest percentages of Latino enrollment in public schools (16.8 percent). Of those students, 53.9 percent attend schools that are 50 to 100 percent minority. By comparison, Rhode Island has a Latino student population of 18 percent, and 74.1 percent of them attend schools that are between 50 to 100 percent. Oregon's Latino student population is slightly larger than Washington at 20.4 percent. However, only 39.8 of Oregon's Latino public school students attend a school that is 50 to 100 percent minority.
Researchers point to the elimination of desegregation assistance under the Reagan administration for the increase in public school segregation. When it comes to the implications of segregation, the researchers write, "The new segregation that has grown out of that diversity is multiracial, affects many more districts, involves language and immigrant issues as well as isolation by race, ethnicity and poverty. It is also spreading. If one examines the testing and graduation statistics on the state department of education websites, the relationship between failure to meet state standards and this segregation is an obvious reality, although it is virtually invisible in policy discourse. Resegregated schools tend to have severe problems of educational performance but as far as this issue goes, most states have taken a pass."

BUZZ-Indian Oil Corp hits near 3-mth low; technicals suggest end of uptrend
** Shares of Indian Oil Corp fall as much as 3.93 pct to 378.05 rupees, their lowest since 31 March
* BSE index gains 0.72 pct; NSE ends 0.78 pct higher * Private banks gain on value buying * Retail, aviation stocks surge By Abhishek Vishnoi MUMBAI, Nov 21 Indian shares posted their biggest daily percentage gain in almost three weeks on Wednesday as private sector banks such as ICICI Bank rose on value-buying, while a weaker rupee bolstered software services exporters such as Infosys. Investors seem to be pinning their hopes on the government being able to gain some traction on bills to liberalise the insurance, pension and banking sectors during the winter session of parliament which begins on Thursday. "Going into the winter session, except the retail sector where there is a question mark, people are quite bullish on the market and a rally in December is expected," said Hitash Dang, vice president at Jaypee Capital. Foreign portfolio flows continue to remain strong for the near term, added Dang. However, the Indian government, reduced to a minority for the first time since coming to power in 2004, is scrambling for support and its chances of success look bleak. The benchmark BSE index rose 0.72 percent, or 131.06 points, to end at 18,460.38. The broader NSE index rose 0.78 percent, or 43.25 points, to end at 5614.80, closing above the psychologically important 5,600 level. Private banks such as ICICI Bank Ltd gained 2 percent after falling 2.5 percent in November as of Tuesday's close, while HDFC Bank Ltd ended 1.5 percent higher. Shares in software services exporters rose, tracking the weakening Indian rupee, which has fallen 2.4 percent against the U.S. dollar this month as of Tuesday's close. Tata Consultancy Services gained 0.7 percent, while Infosys Ltd was up 1.1 percent. Retail stocks rose on hopes that the FDI issue would be taken up in the winter session of parliament. Pantaloon Retail India Ltd rose 4.7 percent while Shoppers Stop Ltd gained 2.3 percent. Cipla Ltd shares rose 2.5 percent after the company offered to buy an about 51 percent stake in South Africa's Cipla Medpro, to strengthen its position in the fast-growing African drugs market. SpiceJet Ltd gained 7 percent after The Financial Express newspaper reported a couple of key stakeholders in the company had resigned from the board of directors of Kal Airways, an investment vehicle that is the carrier's single largest shareholder. [link.reuters.com/vym24t ] The report sparked speculation that the resignations by Kalanithi Maran and his wife from Kal's board of directors could signal a potential change of ownership of SpiceJet. Shares in Kingfisher Airlines Ltd rose 1.9 percent, after The Economic Times newspaper reported Blackstone Group offered to buy a prime office and retail real estate property from investment holding company UB Holdings, citing two people familiar with the developments. [link.reuters.com/ram24t ] A spokeswoman for Blackstone declined to comment on the report, calling it "a pure speculation story." A UB Group spokesman also declined comment. Speculation over a potential cut in fuel taxes also helped Jet Airways gain 9.1 percent for the day. However among stocks that fell, Honeywell Automation India shares closed at the maximum daily fall limit of 20 percent after Honeywell Asia Pacific said it plans to cut its stake in the domestic unit. Honeywell Asia Pacific plans to sell shares in its Indian unit to meet market regulator requirements mandating listed companies must have at least 25 percent public shareholding by next year. Shares in Indian software and back office provider MphasiS Ltd fell 0.9 percent after majority owner Hewlett-Packard Co took a $8.8 billion writedown after alleging a massive accounting scandal at its British software unit Autonomy.

Thank you for reviewing this recipe.
We loved this recipe last night, and will definitly keep this one handy. I now want to try an authentic mexican horchata.
I think this was a very good recipe. My wife also enjoyed drinking one. I think this will become a regular recipe we use when we want something a little different and unusual tasting, in a great way. I had never tried horchata, or heard of it before, this recipes has got me wanting to try an authentic mexican horchata now.
sounds like heaven!
I can't wait to try this! Horchata is something decadent that I think will be truly enhanced by using coffeemate.

A 1950 UFO sighting (from Jose Caravaca)
The sighting was on March 29, 1950 at 12:15 am, exactly. At the airport was the chief commander of sector Villafria (BURGOS-SPAIN) Esteban Ibarreche and Captain Don Salvador Hedilla Ruiz Gómez, head of the weather service, accompanied by teletype service manager Don Francisco Bescós Mombrano Sgt transmissions. They heard a noise similar to that produced by the passage of a plane at a considerable height. Captain Ruiz Gomez told reporters: "... the flying wing produced a perceptible buzz though much smaller than the noise of the aircraft.
"The vision lasted three minutes and the engine, after declining significantly in speed, disappeared in the horizon, going into the clouds, heading south-southwest.
"Look, I clocked the time it takes to discover the binoculars, it took exactly 35 seconds, well, in that short period of time, or until I locate, moved about 10 km which, according to calculations made with the Head of Sector commander of the airfield, Mr. Ibarreche, suggests it would take a speed of 700 to 1000 km per hour.
I insist that all these data are not strictly accurate, but relative. "

FBI heats up search for skyjacker D.B. Cooper
PORTLAND, Ore. — The FBI is making a new stab at identifying mysterious skyjacker Dan Cooper, who bailed out of an airliner in 1971 and vanished, releasing new details that it hopes will jog someone's memory. The man calling himself Dan Cooper, also known as D.B. Cooper, boarded a Northwest flight in Portland for a flight to Seattle on the night of Nov, 24, 1971, and commandeered the plane, claiming he had dynamite.
On Monday, the FBI released drawings that it said probably are close to what Cooper looked like, along with a map of areas where Cooper might have landed.
''Who was Cooper? Did he survive the jump? We're providing new information and pictures and asking for your help in solving the case,'' the FBI said in a statement.
The FBI said that while Cooper was originally thought to have been an experienced jumper, it has since concluded that was wrong and that he almost certainly didn't survive the jump in the dark and rain. He hadn't specified a route for the plane to fly and had no way of knowing where he was when he went out the exit.
''Diving into the wilderness without a plan, without the right equipment, in such terrible conditions, he probably never even got his chute open,'' Seattle-based agent Larry Carr said.
He also didn't notice that his reserve chute was intended only for training and had been sewn shut.
Several people have claimed to be Cooper over the years but were dismissed on the basis of physical descriptions, parachuting experience and, later, by DNA evidence recovered in 2001 from the cheap tie the skyjacker left on the plane.
In 1980, a boy walking near the Columbia River found $5,800 of the stolen money, in tattered $20 bills.
''Maybe a hydrologist can use the latest technology to trace the $5,800 in ransom money found in 1980 to where Cooper landed upstream,'' Carr said. ''Or maybe someone just remembers that odd uncle.''

turbos on a olds 307ci 5.0 "87"?
i have a 1987 cutlas supream. therein lies a 307ci
normally aspirated. i plan on adding two junkyard turbos wich i found in a couple of volvo's i believe they run between 5 and 18 psi of boost
i wanted to run them at 15psi each putting me at 30 lbs of boost
more than doubling my hp. no intercooler though
the air will be drawn directly from outside the engine bay via the hood or head lights spot.
does all this sound like a good idea.
ps i know i must prep the engine with forged pistons ,rod and crank, sound like there is anything missing???
[ September 26, 2002: Message edited by: turbocutlas ]</p>
I would not personally run those at 15 ea. A lot of people believe that two is better than one. Not always true.
As for the turbos from the Volvo's = JUNK turbo lag, turbo lag, turbo lag!!!
30 lbs. of boost = NO WAY IN HELL
As for you stating that the air will be drawn from outside the engine compartment, IT DOESN'T MATTER. Turbos are obviouly run off the exhaust = HOT AIR. Run an intercooler, although you don't have to. Turbos get up to extreme temps., likewise the air they shove in. There is no way completely around it. Intercoolers help considerably.
I had a turbo car. It was a Turbonetics T04 Hybrid, capable of putting out up to 32-34 lbs. of boost, ran it at 25. Awesome power and slight lagging, not noticable.
If you want a turbo car, do it right, you will be much happier.
Good Luck, Jason
find a better engine
307 olds didn't have that good of air flow
Instead of getting all turbo up on a olds find a better engine
I have a 350 olds bord out and stroked out to a 425. And it looks stock wich makes a really good sleeper.
Good choice with the oldsmobiles though
there aren't many out their that want to mess with them but when you know what you are doing you can kick some serious *** !
Chevys are a dime a dosen
have fun

Your Cart is Empty
$ 1.50
Germ 6-14 days
The petite and tender gourmet carrots grow perfectly in containers. Harvest the slender carrots starting at 4" and sow a few plantings throughout the season for an extended harvest. 150 seeds
Outdoors- Early spring, a few weeks before last frost until mid summer. Sow lightly, 1/4" deep, with soil temperature 50-80 degrees. The cooler the soil the longer it takes for germination, up to 3 weeks. The soil moisture should be maintained regularly until germination. Thin to 1-3" apart.
Harvest– Start when carrots reach finger size for baby carrots or when they turn to a bright orange. Late season carrots hold longer and become sweeter in the cooler weather.
Tips- Use a row cover helps to maintain moisture for germination. Carrots prefer a loose soil, free of rubble. If your soil is heavy with clay, use the shorter varieties. Keep well weeded and cover any exposed carrot with soil to prevent greening.

I have a 2003 WRX. Recently, the heater takes longer to warm up and then it seems like it only wants to work when the car is in motion. Stopping at red lights gives cold air.
I'm kind of a newbie at cars in general (more or less) so I hopped this rang some bells for people.

It was that response that I was reacting to ... not anyone's particular misuse of the word. I had to correct the wholly incorrect assumption that the noun was subject to personal interpretation. Anyone can say what they like ... but they then run the risk of sounding like just what they are. That was my point (with the presidential examples).
We can drive a fancy leased BMW; but we can't hide from our own written and spoken word!
That's what I reacted to. The same reaction holds on the incorrect assumption that you can pronounce the word anyway you like (hence the examples provided of Porsche and Chevrolet and Bayer and Goethe); as before, our pronunciation efforts say a lot about our education and attitude - whether we like that or not.
Italian, like German, has its own pronunciation rules which may be hard for us to follow ... but the Italians basically pronounce every vowel ... so Giubo is really easy to pronounce if you remember that every vowel counts. A close approximation is "jew bo" (with a long o) ... but it's more like "gee you bo" where the "gee" part is said faster than the "you" and "bo" (again, long o).
Anyway, I'm looking forward to the DIY in case my "thing" breaks in the future!

I recently purchased a 2011 Impala LT. The car had 20inch wheels and tires that I did not want so the dealer swapped out the wheels and tires for factory 18 wheels and tires from a 2008 Impala 50th Anniversary edition. Of course the TPMS coded with the warning light as well as the message of Tire Pressure Monitor Service. To avoid the dealer here is what I did.
Turn the ignition to run without the engine running. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the key fob at the same time. Horn will honk twice and the message relearn mode will appear. With a ball point pen I released air from the drivers side front tire (about 7-8 pounds) until the horn chirped. The air release must be continuous until the horn chirps. I then moved to the passenger front, Passenger rear and the drivers rear repeating the same air release with the ball point until the horn chirped at each tire. The horn should also chirp twice at the driver's rear tire when all positions are learned. I then turned off the ignition and then started the vehicle. Warning light and Message are gone and all 4 TPM'S are functioning in the correct position.
The key is to remove the caps prior to starting the process so you can move quickly to each tire. Also, you must follow the sequence or the process will not work. DRIVERS FRONT-PASSENGER FRONT-PASSENGER REAR-DRIVERS REAR. IN THAT ORDER and be sure the vehicle horn chirps twice at the driver's rear tire.
NO NEED TO BUY ANY EXPENSIVE TOOL FROM GM. A BALL POINT PEN and attention to the sequence. Worked perfect.

Pectin is a naturally-occurring thickening agent that is most often used by adding it to jams, jellies and similar products to help them gel and thicken.

Oracle: European Commission Fails to Grasp Open Source
Oracle claims that the European Commission's public policy against Oracle's takeover of MySQL runs counter to open source freedom and the growing database market.
Yesterday Sun Microsystems informed the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission about the European Commission's objections against Oracle's acquisition of Sun's MySQL. The Commission's "Statement of Objections" reflects their assessment of the proposed combining of Sun's open source MySQL database product with Oracle's commercial products and the "potential negative effects on competition in the market." Sun said in their short report to the USSEC that the Commission's document is merely a proposal and open for further discussion.
Oracle itself issued a concurrent statement that the commission misunderstood that nobody can control open source. The statement also mentioned six other database providers that provide enough of a competitive market to counter any anti-trust claims in the Oracle-Sun merger as it pertains to MySQL.
According to a Forrester Research study in July 2009, MySQL is the most used database product next to Ingres. Reacting to Oracle's Sun takeover in April, MySQL founder Monty Widenius started an Open Database Alliance together with Percona to protect the open source status of essential MySQL components. Oracle initially refused to commit to MySQL's future and the EU was against the takeover from the beginning. More recently Oracle finally committed itself to promising significant funds to secure MySQL.

Cardinal Bergoglio named as new pope
Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, archbishop of Buenos Aires, Argentina, has been elected to lead the Catholic Church as the new pope. He will become Pope Francis I.
Bergoglio, 76, is also the first from outside Europe in more than a millennium.
White smoke poured from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel and a large crowd in St. Peter's Square cheered in Vatican City, signaling the selection of a new pope.
The smoke appeared just after 2:00 pm Indiana time.
World leaders are sending their congratulations and Catholics around the world are celebrating after the Vatican announced the election of Argentine Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio to the papacy - making him the first pontiff from Americas.
President Barack Obama is offering warm wishes to newly elected Pope Francis.
Obama says the selection of the first pope from the Americas speaks to the strength and vitality of the region. He says millions of Hispanic Americans join him in praying for the new pope.
Obama says the pope serves as a champion of the poor and vulnerable and represents the love and compassion that has inspired the world throughout the Catholic Church's history.
He says he looks forward to working with the pope to promote peace, security and dignity for people of all faiths.
British Prime Minister David Cameron said Wednesday was "a momentous day for the 1.2 billion Catholics around the world." European Union leaders Herman Van Rompuy and Jose Manuel Barroso wished the new Catholic leader "a long and blessed pontificate."
In Latin America, there were tears and cheers at the news that of the first pope from the hemisphere. Even in Communist Cuba, there was pride as church bells rang to celebrate the news.
On Twitter, the pope's mothballed account was revived and read: "HABEMUS PAPAM FRANCISCUM," a reference to the cardinal's new name: Pope Francis.
1.2 billion Catholics around the world have been waiting to find out who will become the next pope.
"Are we surprised by his election? I'd say yes, we're surprised. Even though several cardinals after the conclave in 2005 declared that Cardinal Bergoglio received a lot of support, the fact of his age and the fact that he didn't carry the field the last time led a lot of people to believe he really wasn't in the running," said Indianapolis Archbishop Joseph Tobin, who spoke to reporters at the Catholic Center after the announcement.
"I think you saw that footage from St. Peter's Square where he came out to greet and really spoke directly to the Romans first - after all, his first title is Bishop of Rome; he was speaking to his diocese. Of course, the rest of the world was listening as well," he said.
Tobin points out that Francis' election is a first of many kinds, including the choice of a non-European, the first member of the Jesuits, a major Catholic order and the first person from Latin America. "Pope Francis represents the first time in 1,200 years that a non-European was elected pope," he explained.
A large crowd of people gathered in St. Peter's Square Wednesday, but were disappointed when black smoke billowed from the chimney earlier in the day.
115 eligible cardinals had to reach a two-thirds majority.
Cardinals voted twice Wednesday in Michelangelo's famed frescoed chapel after a first vote Tuesday in a conclave to elect a successor to Benedict XVI, who stunned the Catholic world last month by becoming the first pope in 600 years to resign.
Suggested Links
The conclave was called after Pope Benedict XVI resigned last month, throwing the church into turmoil and exposing deep divisions among cardinals tasked with finding a manager to clean up a corrupt Vatican bureaucracy as well as a pastor who can revive Catholicism in a time of growing secularism.

That .30 caliber bolt rifle sounds like the most fun to me. I like to shoot rifles best of all.
This is a discussion on I'll be crossing off another gun on my "to buy" list in a couple months within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; In a couple months, I'll be acquiring a little over a grand from the state (Better known as the Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend), and I'd ...
In a couple months, I'll be acquiring a little over a grand from the state (Better known as the Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend), and I'd like to cross off another gun on my "to buy" list. I just can't decide which one I want to buy...
Beretta 92FS
Glock 26
Springfield 1911A1 Loaded (Black Stainless)
Yugoslavian AK47 underfolder
Ruger GP100 4" 357 Magnum
Rock River Arms M4
Remington 870 Wingmaster 12 gauge
A bolt action rifle (308 or 30-06)
Now if I buy another handgun (which has been the case everytime I went gun shopping), I'd like to use it for the range and yet another carry gun if I'm so inclined to carrying something besides my G19.
I have bought and sold both the XD45 and XD9 only to later regret it, so I have them back on my "to buy" list. I'd really like to buy another rifle, since I've been buying mostly handguns, but a shotgun that can be used for hunting would make a nice addition, since all I have is my Remington 870 Express Magnum with the 18" barrel.
If I was to buy a bolt action rifle, it would be used for long range target shooting, and if later on, I want to try big game hunting, I could use it for that purpose as well.
I am also currently using my Dad's gun safe to store my 1 rifle I do have, which is my Romanian GP WASR10 AK47, but there's not much room left for another long gun. I've also considered, rather than buying another gun, to buy a gun safe of my own, to store my shotgun and my AK47, but I really have no place out of view to put it, and all I have is a small Sentry security safe which has room left for maybe 1 more handgun.

Rifle does sound most attractive but, based on the quote I'd suggest SIG 220 - but then I am a "Sigophile"I'd like to use it for the range and yet another carry gun if I'm so inclined to carrying something besides my G19

If I were you I would get a Springfield TRP.

I would have to say Sig 220. I'm a little biased. Sigs are my favorite and the 220 is the top of my list. But the bolt gun and the shotgun seem like they would have the most use for you.
Yeah I like Glocks, wanna fight about it!
If you don't have an EBR yet, go for the Rock River M4. You really need to have one of those on hand.

I'll mix it up and say the loaded black stainless 1911. I have a similar gun and it's my favorite. Mine's a kimber though.
With a grand coming your way, you could mark off (2) on your list. The first (2):
Beretta 92FS
Glock 26
Like a revolver, everyone needs to have at least (1) 9X series Beretta in their collection.

Here a while back, IIRC, you were saying that you needed a more concealable pistol due to your workplace situation. The 26 is definitely more concealable than the 19 (slide length, eh, either one - the big difference is the grip length), and to me, it shoots just as good - I've got both. You are already familiar with the Glock - no having to keep the differences seperate in your mind owing to which one you're carrying that day. I think your carry needs should come before the sake of variety. JMHO
You've already got a 'zombie rifle' in that AK. You've got an 870 that, at a later date, you can buy another barrel for.
I'd say see if you can find a 'gently used' G26/bolt gun pair. The 26 for previously stated reasons, and the bolt gun because, man, you live in Alaska, go big game hunting for those of us who can't.
The G26 would certainly make a nice CCW piece, especially for when I'm working, and it won't take most of my dividend check to get it. I used to own a Kel-Tec P3AT for deep concealment, but it was just too small for me, and I can conceal my G19 very well under my work uniform.
Right now I have no real good place to store another long gun, so that may have to wait. Well I think I have it down to yet another pistol...
I think I'm going to go with the Glock 26 this time around. Thanks everyone for the feedback!

That's like asking about which kind of shoes to buy...very individual decision...but I'd go with the Glock-26...it's my next purchase!
By the way, I lived in AK for 7 years...gotta' love those Permanent Dividend Fund checks, it certainly beats state income taxes.

My first inclination was the Springfield 1911, anything Loaded and above from SA is a sweet piece.
But I have to agree with a couple of the others, For 1K you can cross of two, I would go with the XD45 and the GP100. When you can, get a trigger job done on the GP100. They are nice guns to start with but a good trigger job makes them really nice.
Of course good guns don't get taken off my list. If having 1 of a particular model is nice, having two must be excellent.
The only guns that come off my list are the ones that I get rid of because I am not happy with them. Which in my particular case, I haven't run across oen of those yet. COuld be my selective choices could be that I just like guns.

Those who are actively engaged in internet marketing know just how important search is in an internet marketing project. Millions of search queries are typed in search engines on a daily basis. Obviously, having your site show up in the top rankings of any given search query is important.
So I give you SiteProNews' article "The Importance Of Search in Internet Marketing". It's an article that clearly shows the importance of extensively covering & putting in some time for the search aspect of an online marketing campaign. One of the first sentences of the article really stood out for me:
"Search is more popular than display ads and email marketing because of its excellent performance and ROI."
Nothing shows validity & trustworthiness as much as having your website show up on the top of organic search engine rankings.

If you want to get the perfect reception from your wifi network then it is very important that you choose a right kind of Wifi antennas for it. Although this selection is not very easy, if you choose it wisely you can find the best one for your need and following are few tips that can guide you in selection of the best Wifi antennas for your need.
Understand your location: if you are going to install your wifi antenna on a corner and you want its reception till other side of the room and further more in that direction, then it is suggested that you select a right direction antenna for your need. In case you are going to install it at a central position and you wish to access your wifi around the room, then we would suggest you to choose an u.fl rp-sma for it.
Understand the range requirement: Range is the most important thing that you need to remember while installing any wifi network for any location. If you chose an antenna with shorter range, then you may not receive the signal until your desired location and it will be of no use for you to install the less effective and poor reception network that cannot do the its basic task. To make sure you get best reception till last corner prefer to buy one that has slightly higher range then your actual need.
Physical Strength: Although this has nothing to do with its performance but if you want to use it for really long time, then you should buy physically strong Wifi antennas. Since it need to stay exposed with different physical hurdles and it can affect some serious problems to your Wifi antennas and you may find that it is not working. So make sure it is strong and can survive in some physical impacts as well.
Easily rotatable: This is also very important that you choose Wifi antennas with easy rotating capability. This rotating can allow you to set the direction of this antenna in a very easy manner and if you are not getting the network in any particular direction and you want to access your wifi in that direction, you can easily set it according to your specific need.
Also, it is very important that you buy it only from the best manufacturer that give you assurance of quality and warranty on all of your Wifi antennas so you can use it without any worry or problem.

Bret Michaels Planning a Biopic
Wed, 01 Aug 2012 14:30:11
Bret Michaels Photos
Bret Michaels Videos
Poison singer/guitarist Bret Michaels is planning a biopic. He has lead an interesting life, mind you.
The film will begin with his childhood in Pittsburgh, following him through the string of bands he formed, the '80s hair metal success of Poison, the brain hemorrhage he suffered and his eventual heart surgery. Okay, but what about the Pam Anderson sex tape?!
"I want to tell the story. Mostly, when you see rock movies, it has to be this over-the-top thing. I want to give people a Bret Michaels movie where they see that my life is a comedy of errors," he said.
He continued, "I also want to show my fans how to get through the kind of troubles that would leave most people flat on the floor."
Would you see a Bret Michaels biopic?

Our Wedding
"Original garlic shrimp truck - Aaron says, "mmm good!" http://www.yelp.com/biz/giovannis-shrimp-truck-haleiwa-2 other shrimp trucks to try around here: Hono's (http://www.yelp.com/biz/honos-shrimp-truck-laie) Macky's (http://www.yelp.com/biz/mackys-sweet-shrimp-truck-haleiwa) Famous Kahuku shrimp truck (http://www.yelp.com/biz/famous-kahuku-shrimp-truck-kahuku) Romy's (http://www.yelp.com/biz/romys-kahuku-prawns-and-shrimp-kahuku-3)"
The Kahala Wedding In May
"Shrimp farming became a huge deal in Kahuku when Giovanni's shrimp truck started serving up fresh shrimp. To this day, Giovanni's still delivers delicious plate lunches of garlic shrimp (highly recommended) or hot & spicy shrimp if you can handle it (warning: no refunds so you have to be sure about the spicy shrimp). They may not be using fresh Kahuku shrimp anymore, but a couple of nearby stands still do. In any case, it's the original, noted by many a local as "THE white shrimp truck" with Giovanni's spelled onto the car, don't be fooled by imposters! Located on the north end of Oahu in Kahuku, keep an eye out on the left when driving down Kamehameha Hwy from Haleiwa."
Honolulu Wedding In August
"Kahuku is famous for it's shrimp and there is no better shrimp truck in the North Shore than Giovanni's. A must try!"
Alli and Matt's Wedding
"Kahuku has a number of roadside shrimp trucks, but Giovanni's is our favorite! The selection may be limited, but the garlic scampi is out of this world. Dreaming about it is not uncommon. If you are lucky enough to find some sweet corn on the side of the road you'll know you've made it to heaven."
Moli'i Gardens Wedding In October
"n 1993, large-scale prawn farming began in Hawaii and was met with great success. These locally grown jumbo prawns, farmed in Kahuku, are sold to local restaurants and are also offered to the general public via humble shrimp trucks and shacks along Kamehameha Highway on the northeast shore. Several of these shrimp trucks sit along Kahuku's roadside, serving up fresh shrimp at a reasonable price. Shrimp scampi is a popular favorite, though many prefer to try the shrimp tempura, the fiery hot sauce shrimp, or the garlic shrimp. They may look a little questionable, but trust me, it's totally worth the stop!"
Lynette and Lou's Wedding
"Coming to Hawaii and not stopping at Giovanni's is like you didn't go to Hawaii!!"
Rebekah and Joshua 's Wedding
"Kahuku is littered with shrimp farms and lunch wagons who cook up the freshest and tastiest shrimp you've ever tasted!"
Aprille and Bryan's Wedding
"When passing through the city of Kahuku, stop by any of the famous shrimp trucks on the way. We love going to Fumi's Shrimp Truck but there is also Giovanni's Shrimp Truck. Make sure you bring cash. Average price per plate $11"

text: A young man was hired at a local store. During his orientation his manager stressed that he should try to up sell customers. The young man was confused and asked him what he meant. The manager demonstrated by asking a nearby shopper on what she was looking for and if he could help. Upon hearing that she was looking for a cake mix, he directed her to the appropriate isle and also told her of a special on new cake pans. The woman left with a mix and a new cake pan. The young man nodded his understanding and was left alone to attempt this himself. The next time the manager noticed him, the young man was ringing up a huge sale for a gentleman with all manner of fishing equipment. The manager was quite pleased and approached the young man and asked about how he made such a sale. Looking sheepish, the young man replied, "I asked the man about what he was looking for. When he replied he needed tampons, I suggested that since nothing will be happening at his house this weekend, he might as well go fishing."

Pressing Rick Santorum on his opposition to women serving in combat, CNN's Wolf Blitzer quoted a liberal veteran who harshly criticized Santorum's policy. Blitzer did not identify the veteran or his group as "liberal," thus failing to address the critic's possible political motives against the conservative candidate.
"A very angry response from one veteran," Blitzer noted, before quoting the co-founder of VoteVets.org. The group identifies itself as the "largest progressive organization of veterans in America."
As a political action committee, VoteVets.org has contributed overwhelmingly to Democratic political candidates in the last three election cycles. And their political leanings are no secret to the liberal media.
The group was listed by the Washington Post as one of multiple "liberal advocacy groups" attacking Republican presidential candidates, in 2008. The New York Times said in 2007 that VoteVets was "closely aligned with Congressional Democrats."
Santorum's statement in question involved the issue of female soldiers serving close to the front lines in combat. He said their "emotions" may compromise the fulfilling of their combat duty, and that "that's probably not in the best interests of men, women, or the mission."
Blitzer was quite dire in his assessment of the remark, saying Santorum "potentially could be hurting his chances with a broader group of voters."
The response to Santorum by the veteran, Jon Soltz, is as follows: "It's impossible to put into words how infuriating that is to me, as someone who has served twice in Iraq with women who were already serving ably in combat, even thought the Pentagon didn't officially recognize that up until now."
A brief transcript of the segment, which aired on February 10 at 5:02 p.m. EST, is as follows:
WOLF BLITZER: On a day when a Republican presidential candidates are appealing to conservative activists, Rick Santorum potentially could be hurting his chances with a broader group of voters. He's under greater scrutiny right now after his three contest sweep on Tuesday. And a remark he made right here on CNN about women serving in the U.S. military in combat roles has stirred up controversy. Stand by for my interview with Rick Santorum but first, listen to what he told CNN's John King last night about the prospect of female troops serving closer to the front lines.
(Video Clip)
RICK SANTORUM, Republican presidential candidate: I think that could be a very compromising situation where people naturally, may do things that may not be in the interest of the mission, because of other types of emotions that are involved. And I think that's probably – it already happens, of course, with the camaraderie of men in combat. But it's – I think it would be even more unique if women were in combat and that's probably not in the best interests of men, women, or the mission.
(End Video Clip)
BLITZER: And joining us now, Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum, the former U.S. senator from Pennsylvania. Lots of reaction, Senator Santorum, to what you told our own John King on your opposition to women serving in combat units in the U.S. military. A very angry response from one veteran, who writes this, co-founder of VoteVets.org, an Iraq War veteran:
"It's impossible to put into words how infuriating that is to me, as someone who has served twice in Iraq with women who were already serving ably in combat, even thought the Pentagon didn't officially recognize that up until now."
What's wrong with women serving in combat?
BLITZER: A lot of women are irritated, though. Because under your line of thinking, they say, women shouldn't serve as firefighters or police officers, because those are jobs that require them to be on the front lines and could be endangered – their lives could be on the line as well.

On Speech and Submission
posted at 3:09 pm on April 23, 2009 by Kid from Brooklyn
The pattern is clear. Leftist leader wins election, the media submits. Leftist leader criticized, media suffers the consequences. Wash, rinse, repeat. We saw it in Venezuela, where President Obama's reading buddy up and seized RCTV purely on editorial grounds. Now this same insidious control of the media is crystallizing in Argentina, where Christina "I'm no Hillary" Fernandez de Kirchner has targeted Clarin Group, the nation's largest, under the guise of proposed media reform. In an Alinskyite stroke of genius, Fernandez provided the Argentine public with a fat target:
But last year the relationship ruptured over media coverage of a farmers' tax revolt against the government. Grupo Clarin media were critical of Fernandez during the conflict and at government rallies her supporters waved banners saying "Clarin Lies," and "TN: Totally Negative."Fernandez's draft bill would reduce the number of broadcast licenses firms can have, and might open a door for telecoms firms Telefonica de Argentina and Telecom Argentina to compete with Clarin on triple play — a joint phone, broadband and cable television service."The status quo would be the best outcome for Clarin," said Mariano Kruskevich, an analyst at the Grupo SBS consultancy.The government proposal also aims to increase the number of soccer games shown on free television as opposed to pay TV, which would be popular with football-loving Argentines.At a weekend match between Argentina's two biggest soccer clubs, fans blanketed the stands with banners reading "Clarin: We want football free on TV." Critica newspaper said Kirchner, a key player in his wife's government, was behind the stunt.
In both instances, these retaliatory measures were enacted in response to unfavorable coverage. Given Barack Obama's historically cozy relationship with American broadcast media, can similar proposals be too far off if unfavorable coverage of any particular incident misstep were to erode The One's popular support? Leftist regimes require total message control as a neccesary element of survival, which is why it is so reliant on propaganda…and the era of hopenchange is no different. At the very least, we now know why the NYT spiked the torture story. All politics is localism.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez ended their high profile relationship known as "Bennifer" in 2004, but the "Argo" star still keeps in touch with his ex-fiancee.
"We don't have the kind of relationship where she relies on me for advice, but we do have the kind of relationship where there'll be an e-mail saying, 'Oh, your movie looks great,'" Ben told The Hollywood Reporter of his current standing with J.Lo. "I remember when she got 'American Idol.' I said, 'This was really smart. Good luck.' I touch base. I respect her. I like her."
PLAY IT NOW: Ben Affleck: Argo Is 'Really Special'
Adding, "She's put up with some stuff that was unfair in her life, and I'm really pleased to see her successful."
The handsome father of three also opened up about his relationship with his wife of seven years, Jennifer Garner, saying her caring, good-natured personality drew him in.

"[My wife] truly is kind," he said. "She means no one any harm. She doesn't have ill will for any person. She's not competitive with other people. She's not spiteful.
"It's one of those things where it becomes almost aggravating at times," he added, with a laugh. "Every time I go, 'F*** him!' I see in her face that she just thinks that's petty and small."
While his family life is squared away and he's at the top of his game career-wise ("Argo," which he directed and stars in is already garnering early Oscar buzz), Ben admits hitting the big 4-0 in August was difficult.

"It was not fun for me," he said of turning 40. "It's this moment of bifurcation between youth and middle age. One wants to think of oneself as young. One does not want to think, 'Wait a minute! How can I be halfway to death?'"
"Argo," starring Ben, Bryan Cranston, Alan Arkin and John Goodman, hits theaters on Friday.

Covering Mandela: A Journalist Reflects
The passing of Nelson Mandela has the entire world reflecting on his influence — positive and negative.
For Americans who witnessed Mandela's efforts from abroad, he was a vaunted figure that was raised to living legend status. For some journalists in Johannesburg though, Mandela shaped careers.
One of those journalists is Bill Keller, former executive editor of The New York Times and currently an op-ed columnist for the paper. He wrote The Tree Shaker: The Story of Nelson Mandela. Keller also wrote the paper's obituary for Mandela.
In this interview, he says that covering the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa as an American was challenging, because he had to resist comparing it to America's civil rights movement.
"There was a lot more violence and Mandela was not just a guy who led massive marches for peace. He was an incredibly adroit politician. He was, for a while, an underground warrior, what in today's parlance would be called a terrorist," Keller said. "He was a complicated guy and it was a complicated time."

Sydney • The Obama administration has begun directly providing weapons to Kurdish forces who have started to make gains against Islamic militants in northern Iraq, senior U.S. officials said Monday.
Previously, the U.S. had insisted on only selling arms to the Iraqi government in Baghdad, but the Kurdish peshmerga fighters had been losing ground to Islamic State militants in recent weeks.
The officials wouldn't say which U.S. agency is providing the arms or what weapons are being sent, but one official said it isn't the Pentagon. The CIA has historically done similar quiet arming operations.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the operation publicly.


text: Mary Portas slams wardrobe of Cabinet women Fashion guru rips into "ugly bunch" of female MPs Comments Written By 12:00 PM, 11 October 2011 Fashion guru Mary Portas has sparked controversy today with her scathing appraisal of the way female cabinet members choose to dress. "If I were PM," she said, "I'd bloody restyle all those women. I mean, the female cabinet, what an ugly bunch. I would restyle them. "Do you know, I could not look at them. I couldn't look at them! I go in for meetings now and they do dress up for my meetings, but I just want to go, 'Pleeease. No. Not that necklace. Not that skirt.' " Home Secretary Theresa May, who is known for her daring leopard prints, and Conservative Party Chairman Baroness Warsi - once snapped in a pink and purple shalwar kameez - might want to take cover under a one-sized poncho today, as the full interview is published in heat magazine. But they at least have the right of reply. As the newest member of the Royal family, Kate Middleton is more likely to have to grin and bear it. Her status as a fashion icon is also torn to pieces by Portas. "Is that fashion?" she questioned. "I think she's done an incredible job globally, but I do not know how you can say she is a fashion icon. I just don't get that." However, there is one high-profile woman whose sense of style gets the Portas stamp of approval: Dragon's Den newbie Hilary Devey. "In a really camp way," she explained, "it slightly borders on caricature and '80s glamour and power dressing." Evidently, both women have an obsession with shoulder pads, which for Portas may prove the basis of a beautiful friendship. "Funnily enough, someone said to me recently, 'Oh, Hilary Devey would really love to meet you.' I just think we'd have a really good laugh."

Very Satisfied with Result and Most Aspects of LHR Treatment
Pros: Most, I would say 90%, hair gone; cost is very reasonable (for me anyhow, I know some places charge a lot more than what I paid); amount pain is tolerable. Cons: Amount of hassle is more than what I expected; pain is also a little more than what I expected. I had laser hair removal done on my underarm and bikini area. I had a series of 8 treatments done and I'm very happy with the... READ MORE
