Charles Lattimore "Charlie" or "Buddy" Elliott was a cherished member of Broad River Genealogical Society. We will miss his wit and his dedication to the world of genealogy. He had a long & distinguished career with the United States Navy.
Long ago he allowed Broad River Genealogical Society the privilege of publishing, online, the family history he had collected. In this history he also tells his own life story and it is a fascinating account. "The Descendants of John Lattimore, Sr." will continue to be a valuable tool for coming generations of researchers, and will remain online for years to come:

The 60th addition of the Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl finished off like many of the others over the past decade, with a lopsided 43-0 New Hampshire win over Vermont.
Thanks to big plays from their offense and a stout defensive effort, the Granite State made it 13 straight wins over the Green Mountain State in the annual rivalry game played at Dartmouth's Memorial Stadium.
New Hampshire quarterback Conner Benjamin threw for a touchdown and tailback Romeo Masuku ran for two more. Kicker Tyler Ford also set a Shrine Bowl record with a 42-yard field goal in the first half.

09 4.7 gen2 air intake question?
First I'd like to Hi to everyone new to this site. Reccomended from guys from JU. My question is I'm looking to install the DYI airraid tube on my 09 4.7 so I can delete the resonator and keep the stock air box. Is it the 3in. tube or the 3.5in tube. Will I have to move any sensors? Has anybody used this setup? How many cuts on the tube will I have to make to get the straightest line from TB to stock air box? New to this type of set up any advice appreciated. Also does anybody know where I get a amsoil air filter for the 09 4.7 cant find one.
Re: 09 4.7 gen2 air intake question?
you can buy most of what you need online or at stores like Pep Boys, autozone etc. They will sell aluminum pipes of various bends. You will also need silicon couplers at the TB and the airbox. If you stay with the 3" piping...you will need a 3" couplers.....if you bump up to the 3.5 or 4" piping...you will need a 3.5 or 4" to 3" reducer coupler. We have a vendor here that sells Amsoil items at reduced rates to JG members. He is located in the Vendors forum under Syntheticlubestore.
You could alos look into the K&N 63 series intake for the 05-07....I have it on my Gen 2 4.7 and it fits pretty good. But keep in mind I have an 06 that I converted to the gen 2.
There is also a TRUE CAI in development for the 4.7 by Bwoody performance. Hopefully that gets done soon.
Re: 09 4.7 gen2 air intake question?
PM me with your shipping address & I will get you a quote on one shipped.

Playing fantasy sports and playing the stock market have a lot in common. In both, you're always trying to buy low and sell high. The smart man always needs to keep his finger on the pulse of the market. You never want to pay market value or above, and getting in on the ground floor with a player can absolutely make your portfolio. Everybody is searching for that penny stock that could explode and make your year. This time of year there are wild swings in value that you need to capitalize on. Always remember though, preseason stats are generally meaningless but there are significant developments this time of year that you need to be aware of. With that in mind, ETB sorts through the recent news and takes a look at a few of the players who have seen the biggest gains and losses in their value over the last couple of weeks.
Big Gainers:
Vincent Jackson, WR, San Diego: I pegged Vincent as one of my two breakout WRs in our August 14th Prediction-O-Rama, and I'm feeling pretty good about it. He's come out on fire so far and looks like Philip River's obvious go-to WR (After Antonio Gates, of course). In his first two preseason games he caught three TDs and had 92 yards in the all-important third contest. His large frame and hands make Jackson an ideal red-zone threat.
James Jones, WR, Green Bay: Even before the Donald Driver injury (Below) James Jones stock was on the rise due to an extremely strong camp and preseason. Favre seems very comfortable with the young man and has looked to him often so far, much more than incumbent starter Greg Jennings. There has even been talk that Jones is poised to snag the starting job, an extremely lucrative fantasy commodity, from Jennings. He's worth an add in all 12-team leagues right now.
Joseph Addai, RB, Indianapolis: Addai is poised for a huge season, one where I think he'll flirt with 2,000 total yards and find pay dirt 12+ times. The fact that the Colts don't have any reasonable options to divvy up the carries with is going to be big, and Peyton Manning seems to think the young man is going to be touching the ball 25+ times a game. Manning recently told the NFL Network, "This year Joseph Addai is ready to carry that load and be that one back starter and be able to come out whenever he wants to come out . . . He deserves that chance to be the featured back, to be in there on the goal-line drives, the red zone situations, the key two-minute drills . . . he'll be on the field." Owners have to love it. He's now third overall on my cheat sheet.
Brandon Jacobs, RB, New York Giants: Once upon a time (Well, a month ago at least) Brandon Jacobs could be expected to fall into the early part of the third round. There was some concern that he wouldn't be able to handle the workload and that the Giants had plans for a time share with Rueben Droughns. No longer. First word came out that Giants coordinator Kevin Gilbride was committed to giving Frankenstein "20 to 25" carries a game. Then we heard that Jacobs was now running forties in the 4.4 range this year, even faster than his 4.5 range from the scouting combine. And before that, he had spent the offseason working with Eddie George on keeping low to the ground and staying healthy as a taller running back. Now this week we learned that Reuben Droughns will consistently be playing FB again instead of RB. We already knew Jacobs was the goal-line back and the man between the 20s. What else do you want?
Adrian Peterson, RB, Minnesota: Peterson's stock goes up because versus the Jets we learned that he's apparently a Madden player and not a real human being:
Brandon Jackson, RB, Green Bay: Jackson has been pretty solid so far, but the real reason his stock is climbing is the complete absence of Vernand Morency. The two were supposed to be competing for the starting gig in camp, but instead Morency got hurt the first day and hasn't practiced since. Despite being mildly concussed this week, that means Brandon has a stranglehold on the Week 1 starting duties and we have all the confidence in the world that he'll capitalize. Brian and I see big things for this kid in an offense that should be decent.
Jesse Chatman, RB, Miami: Chatman has emerged as Ronnie Brown's top backup out of nowhere. He's had a nice camp and showed some skills while busting off a few big gainers in limited preseason action. A holdover from Cam Cameron's time in San Diego, the coach is comfortable with him in this system and could have big enough plans to make Chatman a decent spot start in 14-team leagues, but he's a necessary handcuff in 12-team leagues for sure.
Brian Leonard, RB, St. Louis: Brian Leonard is a good football player. I did not know that. He got a ton of work early in the preseason as a tailback and looked sharp, reportedly pleasing the coaching staff with his understanding of the offense. Recently he's been getting work at fullback as well. That means the Rams want to get this guy on the field, so don't be surprised if he has limited value as a spot start and make sure he's your S-Jax handcuff.
Jerry Porter, WR, Oakland: Porter quarreled with ex-coach Arthur "Art" Shell from day one last year because of the antiquated, retarding offense the staff was installing. Porter was spot-on in his criticisms and frustration (To run an offense of all 5- and 7-step drops in today's NFL is patently absurd), but the attitude caused him to ride pine for a bulk of the year. Now that Randy Moss has moved on, they've brought in Culpepper (Who's lousy, but has a good deep ball) and the coaching staff has been replaced Porter is content again and set to return to his 2004-05 numbers: about 7 TDs, 950 yards and 70 receptions. Not bad for a guy falling into the 9th round.
Big Losers:
Donald Driver, WR, Green Bay: Ugh. He's my WR1 in ETB's First Annual Fantasy Football Extravaganza, and a guy I was patting myself on the back for taking. So what does he do? Goes out and sprains his foot in an ugly twist-em-up collision a week later. You never want to see a fantasy player suffer an injury to load-bearing joints, especially one who relies on burst, cutting and sprinting like Driver does. Reports are that he'll be fine for week one, but he just became a lot less of a sure thing.
Chris Chambers, WR, Miami: It's hard to get too much worse than a time share of Joey "Blue Skies" Harrington and Daunte "Idiot Manchild" Culpepper throwing you the ball, but what we've seen from Trent "Where's My Medicine?" Green has been worse. I'm nervous for the whole Dolphins offense, I just don't want to touch it right now.
Jerious Norwood, RB, Atlanta: Norwood's stock was through the roof after Warrick Dunn went in for back surgery, but Dunn miraculously returned after just three weeks. This week head coach Bobby Petrino said that Dunn has the edge to be the starting tailback and will almost certainly be in the backfield for the first snap of the season. While I believe Norwood will eventually win the majority of Atlanta's carries, I'm not positive. This has DeShaun Foster/Deangelo Williams of last year written all over it. On top of that, nobody has any idea what the loss of Michael Vick will do to this offense. Where's Matt Schaub when you need him? Texas? Oh, that's right. That's a shame.
Kevin Jones, RB, Detroit: While all reports on his health and performance have been positive in recent weeks, word came out today that Jones will start 2007 on the Lions' Physically Unable to Perform list and miss the first five games of the season (They have a bye week six). I'm not moving him too far either way as I think Jones will be a fantastic flex-commodity down the stretch and in the playoffs, but for any owners who were expecting or counting on production early this is a major blow. You can't say you didn't see it coming though.
Mark Clayton, WR, Baltimore: Mark Clayton has been forced to sit out the remainder of the preseason after suffering the dreaded high-ankle sprain two Sundays ago. It's an injury any fantasy owner is all too familiar with, the kind of thing that tends to inexplicably linger for weeks and sometimes months. Right now, the Ravens are saying Clayton should be good to go week one, but this is something you need to keep an eye on. If he does start, I predict a touchdown versus the shaky Bengals D.
Greg Jennings, WR, Green Bay: It's been a lackluster camp and preseason for one of my favorite sleepers from a year ago. He's been outworked and outperformed by Jones, plain and simple. If Jennings can't get his act together soon he's in serious danger of losing his starting gig. While the Pack figure to go with three-receiver sets often this year, if he's not starting for his NFL team Jennings really can't start for your fantasy squad either.
Vernand Morency, RB, Green Bay: Morency had a legit shot to steal the Packer's starting running back job outright, but that's passed. He hasn't played since the first day of camp. Now he'll have to wait for Brandon Jackson to fumble his opportunity, something I don't anticipate happening. Right now Morency is nothing more than a weak but necessary handcuff.
Brandon Jones, WR, Tennessee: Jones has pulled a Houdini this preseason, and not the good, Melvins kind. He's just disappeared. He's also been extremely inconsistent in camp. It's gotten so bad that Roydell Williams started over him last Friday and Brandon was only targeted with one measly pass. I still believe that Jones will emerge as the Titans' top target out wide as the season goes on, but I'm a lot less confident in that now and it's looking like it won't be the case in the early going.
Chad Pennington, QB, New York Jets: I just wouldn't draft Pennington right now. I wouldn't own him unless it was a 14-team league and I was absolutely desperate for a backup QB. He's looked like shit so far, and I am of the mind that it's time to move on in New York. As bad as Pennington has been, Clemens has been that sharp, even if it's been versus reserves. Clemens is clearly the future QB of the Jets, and he could be present QB sooner than later. I think he should and will be.
Reuben Droughns, RB, New York Giants: There isn't a ton of bad news about Droughns, but the fact that he's going to be playing a lot of fullback (See Jacobs above) this season makes him a significantly less attractive handcuff. That's all he was before, but right now he may or may not be worth owning if he continues to see diminished touches in this role.
Kolby Smith, RB, Kansas City: I am completely convinced that Larry Johnson will get injured at some point this season. I went as far as to tell Brian this week that I wouldn't take LJ until the second round. The history of RBs who have around 400 carries in a season (Let alone an NFL record with 416) is that dismal. I even drafted Kolby in ETB's fantasy league, thinking he was the sure-fire handcuff for the soon to be injured Johnson. Unfortunately, he just hasn't been able to move the ball at all this preseason and he's going to be no better than third on the depth chart for a while. That makes him impossible to own in 12-team leagues at the moment.

text: Downton Abbey's Rob James-Collier: I was devastated when Siobhan Finneran left "To have that sort of friend and ally gone was a big wrench for me" Comments Written By Ellie Walker-Arnott 2:04 PM, 13 September 2013 Rob James-Collier, the actor who plays Downton Abbey's devious under-butler Thomas Barrow, has admitted to being "devastated" when his co-star Siobhan Finneran left the show. Finneran, who played lady's maid and Thomas Barrow's partner-in-crime O'Brien, left the show in between series three and four. "I was devastated," said James-Collier at the launch for the show's fourth series. "She's the best actor I've ever worked with. I've not worked with many so it's not much of a badge of honor! But she was brilliant." "She was also really funny and we were really good friends. Really strong character, a very funny woman, brilliant actor." It seems their friendship wasn't the only thing James-Collier will miss about having Finneran around on set. "I copied everything off her - the stillness, the economy of movement, throwing everything away because it makes you more sinister. I was going to go over the top and try and be Marlon Brando. "To have that sort of friend and ally gone was a big wrench for me," he continued. "I still keep in touch with her but I wish she was back. But, you know, it was her decision to leave to go and do other stuff." "I think she left behind a superb character. I think she was a lot of people's favourite and quite rightly because she was just so enigmatic and dark... I love her and I want her to come back!" Downton Abbey returns to ITV on 22 September.

* Investors buy greenback amid Syria tensions

By Alastair Sharp
TORONTO, Aug 30 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar ended steady against its U.S. counterpart on Friday, hurt as the United States made it clear it planned to punish Syria over a chemical weapons attack but helped by Canadian economic that was not as dismal as feared.
But the loonie, as Canada's currency is colloquially known, weakened 0.3 percent on the week, its third straight weekly decline.
Canadian gross domestic product data for the second quarter showed slowing growth, but it slightly exceeded forecasts despite a contraction in June. Continued...

On "Bubble" Warnings, Bearish Sentiment and "Black Friday"
Today, November 26, marks the day Thanksgiving was "invented" by three revered Presidents at three significant times in American history: at our nation's birth, during the Civil War and in World War II:
- On November 26, 1789, during his first year as President under the new U.S. Constitution, George Washington declared the first national day of Thanksgiving.
- On November 26, 1863, a week after his stirring Gettysburg Address, President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of Thanksgiving, but the day was not mandated by law until 1941:
- On November 26, 1941 – 11 days before the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor – President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared the "fourth Thursday in November" as a national day of Thanksgiving.
The "fourth Thursday" falls anywhere between November 22 and 28, so this year's Thanksgiving falls on its latest possible calendar date – November 28. Maybe that's one reason why we keep seeing "early Black Thursday" sales advertised on TV, radio, the Internet, billboards and almost everywhere you look.
Black Friday Comes Early – and So Does Santa Claus
For 11 years, my son was store manager in a leading electronics chain, so he had to grab some short hours of sleep shortly after Thanksgiving dinner in order to get up at 2:00 am, or earlier, to rally his staff against the onslaught of hundreds of freezing but eager shoppers camped out in front of his store all night long.
That's the "Black Friday" tradition, but all that is changing. This year, I've seen all kinds of early "Black Friday" sales, on line or in the stores. TIME Magazine says Black Friday now starts the Friday BEFORE Thanksgiving. USA Today reported that retailers like Sears and the Disney Store are introducing Black Friday-style "door busters" (50% or more off) starting November 19 – 10 days before Black Friday. I just got a slew of promotions from Amazon about "Black Friday Week." In time, the Friday after Big Meal Day will just be a time to relax after you make all those special deals on-line sometime in mid-November.
In recent years, investors have imitated these savvy retailers by "stealing a march" on the competition to buy stocks before major calendar cycles begin. The January Effect, for instance, has moved back to the final week of the year, while the Santa Claus Rally begins in early December. As a result, December is now the best month of the year, as measured by the S&P 500 or Russell 1000 & 2000. December is #2 as measured by the Dow or NASDAQ, according to The Stock Trader's Almanac, which wrote last week, "Market trading in December is holiday-inspired and fueled by a buying bias throughout the month."
Bubble Talk & Bearish Sentiment are Usually Contrarian Buy Signals
With the market setting new highs almost every week, you might think that this "dream market" could run forever (it won't!), but the fact that we've seen rising bearish sentiment and a slew of new "bubble" warnings lately is very encouraging. Growing gloominess usually means that the market will keep rising.
When investors are overly euphoric at a market peak – as in early 2000 – a crash is often imminent, but today's average investor is very suspicious. The American Association of Individual Investors (AAII) poll has become increasingly bearish as the market has risen to new highs. Last week, bullish sentiment at AAII fell 4.8 points to 34.4%, while bearish sentiment rose for the fourth consecutive week, to 29.5%.
Although the percentage of bulls is still five points above the percentage of bears, the 34.4% bullish consensus remains four points below its average for the last 4.7 years of the current bull market.
Short-term, the market usually performs well during Thanksgiving week. Since 1945, according to Bespoke Investment Group (BIG), the S&P has averaged 0.65% gains in this holiday-shortened week. In the best years, when the S&P 500 was up over 10% going into this week, the index has done even better, averaging 0.77% gains, with positive returns 65.5% of the time. Furthermore, since the current bull market began in March of 2009, Bespoke says that the S&P 500 has averaged a gain of 4.41% from the end of Thanksgiving week through the end of the year, with positive returns every year. Bespoke added: "The last time the S&P 500 traded down from the end of Thanksgiving through year end was in 2005."
In the Latest "Bubble" Wars, Buffett & Yellen Trump the Bubble-Bears
Now, let's examine the latest run of "bubble" talk from a remarkable array of noted investors who have each used the "B" word recently. In fact, last week's Barron's cover story was titled "Bubble Trouble?"
Last Tuesday, when the Dow made its first assault on 16,000, the bears came out in force and the Dow paused in its ascent – for a New York minute. First, CNBC reported that Carl Icahn said the market "could easily have a big drop." Icahn said valuations are rich and earnings at many companies are fueled more by low borrowing costs and buybacks than management's efforts to boost earnings. He said "a lot of the earnings are a mirage." Icahn, however, was merely saying that we should hedge a bit, not "sell all": "Often when we are concerned about the market, we hedge to some extent and this is one of those times."
A clearer voice of doom, the perennial bear Marc Faber, said on CNBC last Tuesday that he sees "a bubble in everything that relates to the financial sector." Faber said the financial bubble is caused by central banks, and the situation may worsen with the nomination of Janet Yellen as the next Fed Chair.
A more credible warning came from Jeremy Grantham, who expressed concern that the stock market was too high. Grantham has high credibility since he predicted both the crash of 2008 and recovery of 2009. In a report titled "Breaking News! U.S. Equity Market Overvalued," Grantham's company, GMO, said that the S&P 500 is overvalued by about 40%. The author of this latest report, Ben Inker, head of the asset allocation group at GMO, warned that "The U.S. stock market is trading at levels that do not seem capable of supporting the type of returns that investors have gotten used to receiving from equities."
We're also seeing some major firms predict a market drop in 2014 – a mid-term election year, historically the best year in the four-year election cycle. Last week, Goldman Sachs said that the S&P 500 could fall 6% in the next three months and 11% over the next 12 months, to levels of 1,700 and 1,600, respectively.
Amid all this bubble talk, Janet Yellen was asked about bubbles in her confirmation hearings. To her credit, she said, "Looking at several valuation measures you would not see stock prices in territory that suggests…bubble-like conditions." Meanwhile, Warren Buffett gave a talk at his old elementary school in Omaha, Nebraska, as part of American Education Week. He was asked what his #1 concern about the market would be, and he quipped, "I don't have concerns about this market." Buffet said that stocks are "in a zone of reasonableness. Five years ago," Buffett said, "I wrote an article for The New York Times that said they were very cheap. And every now and then, you can see that that they're very overpriced or very underpriced." Today, "they're definitely not way overpriced. They're definitely not underpriced."
"If you live long enough," Buffett said, "you'll see a lot higher prices. I don't know what stocks will do next week or next month or next year, but five or 10 years from now, they are very likely to be higher."
That's a great quote to pin on your refrigerator – an appliance you'll visit often this Thanksgiving week!

Hello, new here but have been a longtime lurker. Recently decided to have a pop at costuming so thinking of joining the 501st in the guise of an Episode 2 Clone Trooper. Would have liked to have done a Boba Fett suit, but it's too tricky and expensive. I do have the MR helmet though, in all its inaccurate glory (did someone actually look at the movie before this got passed?).
So, I'm about to order my Clone helmet, but while waiting for payday I've been thinking of some way to be able to remotely switch on and off units in the helmet, such as voice amplifier with speaker, fan and the three LEDs at the rear using the compad on the right arm. A future requirement would maybe be a microphone is the chest cavity, behind the "="-opening and connecting to an earpiece for improved directional hearing. Tricky, I know, and seemingly way beyond my capabilities judging from responses I've had so far on other forums. But I'm learning. I was hoping that there'd be someone on here who would think it was an interesting challenge and would want to see if something can be worked out. It could be something that could be used for a Boba Fett helmet as well and integrated into the wrist pad.
Basically, this is my diagram of how I would want it to work:
It's very basic, and I'm quite aware the 9V battery might not be enough to run everything. Attached to the battery is a small fan, a small display with three red LEDs for the back of the "fin", a voice amp, passive microphone and speaker. I then want to be able to switch everything on and off using a radio remote sitting underneath the compad.
I was thinking of using one of these for the radio transmitter: http://www.goodluckbuy.com/6ch-on-of...ol-315mhz.html as the control panel underneath the compad. That would then control one of these: http://www.goodluckbuy.com/rf-wirele...xd-9-2pcs.html sitting in the helmet and receiving the signal. That would then control the various parts by switching them on and off using the remote. The speaker is a 45mm Mylar superthin speaker (http://www.maplin.co.uk/super-thin-m...ylar&doy=14m12) which should be enough. This LED array might work, but I need to check the measurement: http://uk.farnell.com/opto-images/ba...red/dp/1208839. The amp could be either this: Velleman nv, with a 47k ohm potentiometer for volume control, or this (which is 10V): LM380 2W Mono Audio Amplifier Module (3097), and using this sort of headset: LIGHTWEIGHT HEADWORN 3.5mm MULTIMEDIA LAPTOP MICROPHONE | eBay. The fan would just be a small standard helmet fan.
This sort of receiver/switch might also work: 4 CH Wireless RF Remote Control Radio Controller Switch | eBay.
Now, issues... How could this work? How would it be powered without having 18 AA batteries sitting around the helmet? How would you run a 9V amp off a 5v receiver? How can it be made into a small, elegant, low-cost solution which would work seamlessly and as intended? It could just be a pipedream, don't even have a compad yet so I don't even know if it could be made to work. Sci-Fire did a rubber one but they're gone so it would have to be a resin one.
So, anyone up for a challenge...?

Dubbed TV Everywhere, Time Warner's trial of the online TV service will include shows from the NBC Universal-owned Syfy channel; Time Warner's TNT, HBO and TBS; Cablevision System's AMC, IFC and Sundance Channel; and BBC's BBC America. CBS and Discovery are also involved in the test. The trial of TV Everywhere is expected to be made available to 5,000 households. Verizon will roll out its flavor of the TV Everywhere trial, making TNT and TBS available online for FiOS customers.
Recognizing the threat at hand, other companies are also moving to safeguard the subscription model of old. DirecTV is reportedly working on a version of TV Everywhere. While their attempts may woo some, I have one question: Will the TV Everywhere online broadcasts be crammed full of ads?

Roloson Faltering For Leaking Lightning
Lightning goaltender Dwayne Roloson is getting a game off after suffering 4-2 and 7-1 losses in his last two outings.
He will get a game off -- and maybe more -- as coach Guy Boucher allows him to regroup after a rough week.
"Right now he's got a lot of games in a row, and he's going to get a break," coach Boucher told the St. Petersburg Times. "He's had a breather and practices before where he's had success, and all of a sudden he clears his mind and he's back on track. This is a great opportunity for him to master his game."
Back-up Mathieu Garon will start Tampa Bay's next game. If he plays well, he could stay in the nets for a while.
Roloson is 1-3-0 with a 4.64 goals-against average and a .851 save percentage in his last four games. His season GAA soared to 3.46 and his save percentage sank to .887.
Rollie the Goalie's struggle has triggered speculation that Tampa Bay is shopping for goaltender help, but right now the trade market is pretty quiet. Even though the Lightning has lost four of five games, general manager Steve Yzerman doesn't sound ready to pull the trigger on a deal.
"I never believe you do something just to do something," Yzerman told the Tampa Tribune. "You just try to make the team better, whether that's through recalling somebody or a trade. I'm not going to react. You just have to assess your team.
"We've been inconsistent. We've had some very good games and done a lot of good things, but as a team we have to improve our team defense. And that's not a critique of our defense, it's just as a team collectively we have to be better. We have higher expectations and some of our players are not playing at the level they were at last year. We are not as deep as we were last year, and we are hoping that within, our players will elevate their play."

It looks like 2011 will be the year of the single-stack pocket 9's. We have Sig and Ruger throwing their hats in the ring.
Now Kimber:
Will Glock be next? :rolleyes:
I assume that will be a DAO pistol? I didn't see an external hammer...Interesting!
I dont think any of these single stack 9s are for pockets. I carry a p3-at, and anything larger would be too large. Most will agree the keltec p11 9mm is too large for pocket. That kimber will be too larger and heavy. Might work in a coat pocket, but not jeans
Will RogersQuote:
...I never yet met a man that I didn't like.
I never met a gun that I didn't like (that wasn't pointed at me)
Manual safety = yuck
Not bad looking, It does look a little large for a pocket weapon hopefully a black stainless version to come ?
Compared to an LCP:
Even though the picture is a good indication, I look forward to seeing the actual specs. Naturally this has to come out right when I think I've decided on a single stack 9mm...
Makes little difference to me either way.The only firearm I own with a true external safety is my CZ-82, but it's not my carry gun. If I were to carry anything "cocked & locked" I'd think I'd want one.
Well back to the thread, the safety issue has been beat to death and for some of us folks it's not an issue. I do have to say that this Kimber looks nice, to bad it's not a Colt.
17.2 ounces with empty magazine. God Bless :smile:
striker fired... 7lb trigger
Wanted the LC9 till I saw this. Can't wait for the test videos this looks as if it could be the most accurate in this market.

lm1036 offset voltages
since the lm1036 has only the vcc supply, its output will run from 0 to vcc, witch means it has a dc level equal to vcc/2 right? so, to connect it to a power amp like lm4766, di I need to subtract from the output signal -Vcc/2??
PS: the same apply to lm1036 input?
Just need a coupling cap between them.

The SEC is a monolith. That's the best way to describe what is actually an NCAA conference, the Southeastern Conference, but is a whole lot more than that. Comprised of 14 schools and stretching from South Carolina to Texas, the SEC attracts fans as an entity, taking in individual college affiliation and superseding it, creating a 'SEC Against the World' mentality that makes the whole conference special — or insufferable — depending on where you fall on the fan spectrum.
That unabashed fanaticism has been embraced by everyone within the program, and their continued excellence has bumped it up from the standard issue NFL boot camp that most Division-I football programs are into the Ivy League of NFL prospects. Would AJ McCarron have been drafted if he hadn't been playing for Alabama? Would anyone outside of the Aggies have thought that Manziel was ever going to go Top 10 if Texas A&M hadn't been hoisted into SEC ranks back in 2012?
Those are, for better or worse, fair questions, as the SEC is the gold standard for college gridiron. A standard that is heavily touted by the conference's advocates, to be sure, but a standard that is also true.
There's an entire line of judgement about CFB teams when it comes time to rate and evaluate different programs that boils down to "How well did they fair against the SEC?" There was a national outpouring of joy when Florida State beat Auburn in the BCS National Championship, an echo of the elation that was caused by Alabama's loss to Oklahoma. The SEC is so good that everyone else cheers when they lose — an entire conference made up of the New York Yankees or LeBron's Miami Heat in 2011.

- How to Read a Study Record
Hearing impairment either clinical or subclinical is a characteristic of some renal disease patients. The hearing impairment could be result from specific etiologies or chronic renal failure itself. The causes of hearing impairment in renal disease patients ranged from drugs intoxication in both auditory and renal function, like gentamycin or isoniazid, congenital disease like Alport syndrome or other collagen-defective renal disease, or just aging related. End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients are special in many parts to general population who have hearing impairment. First, inflammation in ESRD patients is well-documented, second, they suffered from various underlying diseases which auditory function was potentially impaired, third, they need to undergo renal replacement therapy either hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD) to maintain their life. Dialysis itself was found to be a cause of hearing impairment, too. The biochemical change and constitutive inflammation status are thought to be implicated in the pathogenesis of hearing impairment in ESRD patients. Aluminum (Al) is a well-documented heavy metal, which predisposes to Alzheimer's disease, dementia or some neurologic diseases. Al intoxication is very rare in general health population but elevated serum Al level is easily found in ESRD patients since they can not excrete Al by damaged kidneys and dialyzers. Inner ear per se is a neurologic tissue, so if serum Al level in ESRD patients has any association in their haring function needs to be studied.

PBS – 'This Emotional Life' Visual Series
PBS released a documentary called "This Emotional Life" and I saw it and went to pieces. If I could narrow down one aspect of human education without which we all suffer, it would be the lack of education around emotional intelligence and emotional management. "This Emotional Life" discusses a broad range of the emotional trials and tribulations of being human, but also shows us how sustained happiness isn't as far out of our reach as we may think. The field of positive psychology – studied by companies such as Zappos – actually gives us tools to shape our states of happiness instead of bumbling around hoping we stumble upon it. It was such a powerful series of films that I sought out the producers and the host, Dr. Dan Gilbert, and requested the documentary transcripts so I could do a "visual series" of the content. After some explanation of what I do and after sharing with them my portfolio – specifically The War of Art piece – they got excited about the project and decided to be supportive of it. We haven't yet decided how these visuals could be incorporated into PBS' campaign around this film, but we're working on it. What you see above is Page One of many to come. I plan to stitch these visual narratives together, ultimately to create a sort of (digital) graphic novel that summarizes the power of emotional health and how we can get there.
New addition (page 2) is now on the scene. Below.

Friggin' awesome. (From now on that's the only comment I'm going to write. It seems to sum it all up.)
June 4, 2010
Thanks, Steve! I'll see you at VizThink NY. 🙂
September 4, 2010
That's mighty deep. But I love it. I love visual thinking. The diagram helps to place a summary that is easily understood – I think books should have a diagram like this instead of an preface or summary. This way you can look at the index and say – "aaahhh I see".
November 8, 2010
i agree with Vinny.. I'm buying books on thickness these days. If somebody can't summarize something enough to get it small, they probably don't get it – notice there's not much room for the trivial opinions and life experience of the author – that usually takes three chapters in a book.
Nice work!

The Tale of the Cat colt – whose impressive 100 Beyer Speed
Figure debut at Belmont Park on July 1 stamped him as a 2-year-old to be
reckoned with – was positioned just off longshot Black Rhino by jockey
John Velazquez as he led through an opening quarter in 22.40 and a half-mile in
45.67. Moving up on even terms rounding the far turn, Overdriven grabbed the
lead at the top of the stretch and was never threatened as he galloped under
the wire in 1:10.60 for the six furlongs.
"We felt like we had the best horse going in, but when
you're in situations like this, everyone knows what can happen in
Saratoga and the history of upsets, so you don't take anything for
granted," said Todd Pletcher, who trains Overdriven for Mike Repole.
"I'm just happy he broke cleanly and put himself in a good spot.
Johnny said he idled a little bit, kind of waiting on horses when he made the
lead, but it was a real professional performance."
Overdriven, who paid $2.60 for a $2 win bet, earned $90,000 and has now
bankrolled $126,000 for Repole, who bought him for $350,000 at the Keeneland
September yearling sales.
Run for the 97th time, the Sanford
marked the first graded stakes victory at Saratoga
for Repole, who was leading owner at the 2010 meet with 13 wins.
"Two years ago, before I met Todd Pletcher, I was 0-for-36 here
and I know that because he reminds me every day," said Repole.
"Last year, we had 13 wins, Uncle
Mo and Stay Thirsty broke their
maidens here … it's a special place. Last year, Uncle Mo was
the best 2-year-old in the country and as of July 24, Overdriven is the best
2-year-old in the country."
Following the win, Repole was asked if Overdriven could be another
Uncle Mo, who broke his maiden last year at the Spa for the Pletcher-Repole
team and went on to win the Eclipse Award as the nation's top 2-year-old
"Pretty nice horse last year, and pretty nice horse so far this
year," said Repole. "[But] there's only one Uncle Mo.
And there's one Overdriven."
Pletcher said the next logical spot for Overdriven would be the Grade 1
Three Chimneys Hopeful at Saratoga
on closing day, Monday, September 5.
"It's good spacing, and we ran him back a little quicker than
we normally would after his maiden win because we wanted to get this race in
and we'd get better spacing to, hopefully, the Hopeful," said the
trainer, who previously won the Sanford with Ready's Image (2007), Scat
Daddy (2006), Chapel Royal (2003) and More Than Ready (1999). "Hopefully,
the Champagne
after that would be what we're thinking long term."
Second-place finisher Power World, sent off as the 5-1 second choice by
the crowd of 18,791, was three lengths clear of Grade 2 Futurity winner
Jack's in the Deck, who in turn was followed under the wire by Black
Rhino, Moonrush, and Tarpy's Goal. Bless the Soldier, who reared in the
gate and unseated jockey Jeffrey Sanchez, was a late scratch, with Maan having
been scratched earlier in the day.

Audi race fans take note, Howden Haynes (a.k.a. "H") has set up a Twitter account, joining the ranks of driver @AllanMcNish and an official team account at @Audi__Sport. The Audi Sport R18 squads haven't yet raced since Howden set up his account but we're curious what sort of background insight the engineer star of "Truth in 24" will offer on race day.

Former TARP Watchdog On Credit Suisse Settlement
Banking giant Credit Suisse has admitted to "knowingly and willfully" helping thousands of U.S. clients hide income and assets from the IRS.
But while the bank will pay $2.6 billion in a settlement, it will not be forced to reveal the names of the clients who cheated on their taxes and no one at the bank will go to jail, despite admitting to criminal charges.
Neil Barofsky, former inspector general for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), tells Here & Now's Jeremy Hobson that banks are still too big, and the same incentives that led to the financial crisis are still there.
"It's just a question of when, not if," for the next financial crisis, Barofsky said. "You can't look at fundamental broken incentives in the financial system and not come to the conclusion other than we are headed down the same dangerous path that culminated in the explosion of 2008."

SSD purge (solid state drive purge)
SSD purge is the process of returning a flash memory device to its original state at the time of manufacturing and effectively erasing any data that has been written to the device. A purge is sometimes called a hard reset or digital sanitization.

Some solid state drive (SSD) vendors build purge features into their products which erase data from the drive and then overwrite each addressable memory block with a pre-determined pattern. For solid state media that contains non-sensitive data, this may be an acceptable solution, but as with hard disk drives, physical destruction of the drive is the only way to completely ensure that data cannot be recovered.

BY MADELINE PATTON,Published May 21, 2010
A video game that teaches about air pollution, an online prom dress resale store and a business that sells bat houses are among the environment-themed projects that recently competed for venture capital at the Connecticut Student Innovation Expoin Hartford, Conn.
The souped-up science fair–where detailed business plans, multi-page Web sites, humorous videos and slick marketing pitches take the place of poster boards–wrapped up yearlong, highly interactive courses that 750 students took at 35 high schools in either e-commerce, biology, digital media, or information technology research and design.
The Center for 21st Century Skills used an Advanced Technological Education(ATE) grant from the National Science Foundation to create curricula that make systemic changes in high school science instruction. In tandem with this ambitious goal, the curricula seek to put students on technical career paths and bridge the significant achievement gaps between the state's urban and suburban youth.
The center is part of Education Connectionand has worked closely with the Regional Center for Next Generation Manufacturingon the ATE grant for Connecticut Pathways to Innovation (CPI) project. Theregional center connects CPI to major employers and community colleges in the state. Business representatives and community college faculty members serve as curricula advisors, mentors to the students and faculty, and judges at the expo.
While only one team wins money toconvert its project into a real business, the product-driven work culminating in the Expo makes lessons about science, math, technology and business dynamic to students who might otherwise drift through high school, according to the students, high school teachers and community college faculty involved in CPI.
"Their program is fantastic for opening these students' awareness of entrepreneurship in high school," said Theresa Janeczek, assistant professor of entrepreneurship and business at Manchester Community College.

The Wind Shifts For Microsoft
During Microsoft Corp.'s (MSFT) landmark antitrust trial, the company often seemed seriously out of touch with reality. When its witnesses were torn to shreds by government lawyers, chief counsel Bill Neukom dismissed the embarrassing spectacle as mere "courtroom theatrics." When Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson ordered Microsoft split in two, Chairman William H. Gates III just shrugged and said he would win the next round. Was the software giant living in a parallel universe where forecasts were always rosy?
Maybe not. Microsoft's optimism no longer seems quite so far-fetched. In the past few weeks, its legal prospects have markedly improved. On Jan. 12, U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz dismissed 20 consumer class actions against Microsoft. A week later, George W. Bush, who probably never would have sued the company in the first place, was sworn in as President. And on Jan. 23, Microsoft settled its long legal battle with Sun Microsystems Inc. for a paltry $20 million.
"LOOKING UP." The next big event on Microsoft's legal calendar is a showdown with the government before the District of Columbia Court of Appeals on Feb. 26. And some tea-leaf readers think the appeals court may have already revealed a pro-Microsoft bias. In dealing with friend-of-the-court briefs, filed by parties that aren't directly involved in the suit, the D.C. Circuit ordered the entire anti-Microsoft chorus--AOL Time Warner Inc. and three trade groups representing much of the high-tech world--to collaborate on a single brief. Meanwhile, just about anybody with a pro-Microsoft view filed individually, including the Association for Competitive Technology and the Center for the Moral Defense of Capitalism, a fringe organization that considers antitrust law unconstitutional.
Add it all up, and Microsoft's legal picture is sunnier than it has been in years. "No question about it, things are definitely looking up for them," says Brookings Institution antitrust expert Robert E. Litan.
To be sure, there are some dark clouds on the horizon. Even if the Bush Administration decides to take it easy on Microsoft, there are still 19 state attorneys general pushing the government's antitrust case. And while many consumer class actions against the company have been dismissed, Microsoft faces the prospect of private lawsuits filed by the companies it allegedly injured, including AOL Time Warner, IBM, Gateway, and many others.
BLUSTER. But even these threats may not be as menacing as they originally seemed. Consider state attorneys general. In public, they have made a show of hawkishness, vowing to seek a breakup no matter what stance the Justice Dept. takes towards Microsoft. "It makes little difference to us what the Bush Administration does," says Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal. "We'll do whatever needs to be done."
But behind the bluster, the attorneys general are not the unified force they claim to be. Of the 19 original AGs, the two from Ohio and Illinois oppose the plan to divide Microsoft in half. Two others, from North Carolina and Utah, relinquished their posts to newcomers who have been noncommittal about the case. Of the remaining 15, the AGs representing California, Connecticut, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, and Wisconsin are thought to be most devoted to breakup. One source familiar with the state camp says if Bush wants to settle for less than that, there would probably be more defections. "There are eight or ten [who] seem to be committed to this case," says this lawyer. "The others might peel off."
After Judge Jackson issued his damning legal ruling, Microsoft was expected to be slammed with a wave of private antitrust litigation. It hasn't turned out that way. A key reason: Many of the companies Jackson said were injured by Microsoft's actions have refrained from filing suits. The most important one is AOL Time Warner (AOL). Having bought Netscape Communications Corp., the company could sue Microsoft for potentially billions of dollars in lost profits, since Netscape was the software maker's prime victim. Under antitrust law, that sum could then be tripled with a finding of guilt.
AOL Time Warner refuses to discuss its intentions. But notwithstanding the potentially immense recovery, many in the industry doubt it will ever file suit. Among other things, AOL Time Warner is itself a new media giant. Some speculate it may be unwilling to establish antitrust precedents that could later be used to thwart its own growth plans. By arguing that Microsoft should share data about its copyrighted software with competitors, for example, AOL Time Warner might be helping to create broad legal precedents that would require it to share access to its cables, set-top boxes, and proprietary software.
IMAGINARY WORLD. Industry sources say PC makers and Microsoft's software rivals are also holding their fire until they know how much of Jackson's ruling will stand, since their cases depend on the outcome. The companies need the strongest possible legal foundation because "they're still scared stiff of Microsoft," says one high-tech executive.
While the companies Microsoft did business with largely haven't sued, lawyers representing consumers have. But many of these suits suffer from a fatal flaw: Most people don't directly purchase Windows. That means they have no grounds for suing Microsoft in federal court, according to Judge Motz, under the 1977 Supreme Court case Illinois Brick Co. v. Illinois. And this precedent will also kill many of the remaining state class actions.
Even so, a few states have passed laws that repeal Illinois Brick. Lawyers are taking cases to those jurisdictions. But even there, the plaintiffs are likely to have a hard time. To win, the lawyers must persuade a jury that Microsoft's predatory practices resulted in artificially high prices. "You essentially have to reconstruct a world that never existed," says Eugene Crew, the San Francisco attorney leading a California class action against Microsoft. He admits this is a difficult task. And Microsoft has a strong defense: It will be able to argue that its opponents are the ones in a parallel universe.

This is a blog to chronicle this portion of the life of Staff Sgt. Jason Ross, my son, as he mends, after an I.E.D. explosion, on March 7, 2011, while serving his country in Afghanistan.
Thursday, November 17, 2011
November 17, 2011 - Showers are nice
First, when doing a dressing change Jason if more comfortable with being on the prone cart, and that is where he was when this started. Now he needed to transfer over to his chair. We had to get his chair set up, so that he could comfortably sit on it, without all his bandages (that is...padding). We placed a sheet on the chair and Jason sat directly on the sheet. We then had to move the bed, so he could get to the bathroom and shower, and that took a few minutes. Once in the lavatory he needed to figure out how to get to the shower. There was a special chair put in so he would be able to get all showered up, without worrying about his chair or seat cushion. I was working directly with OT, so I would know more about what needed to be done in the future, because Jason would no doubt want to take another shower someday (they are now scheduled every Monday and Thursday). Jason felt really good after the shower, even though he also felt very tired. It was a great deal more work than what he is accustomed, and that's okay because he slept really well after we were done.
Linda and I went off to take a look at a second possible house, and this second one does look better, so we're anxious for Jason to see it. I think it may be a little bigger than the first out we saw, though I didn't measure the house the first time. The previous house had placed that would not work for Jason, and it was generally uncomfortable. The second house may also have some tight places, but while we were there it just seemed to be a better house, for Jason's needs. We need to get Jason out to see the new house, and once that has been done, we will know what Jason wants to do.
There were a couple of special visitors for Jason today, Brigadier General Dana, and his Chief of Staff, Colonel Hollahan. Both of the men knew Jason from Afghanistan, and saw Jason before he came back to the United States. They were both wanting to know more about how Jason was doing, and just get an understanding of how he was progressing. There visit lasted for nearly an hour, and we had a great discussion. The General said he was headed back out to Bethesda soon, and would look up a few people for us, and let them know Jason was doing well. We also talked about some of the challenges we were dealing with, with the biggest being Jason's truck, and getting it out here. We told them about how his truck suddenly stopped working so the Colonel offered up some names and contact information of people that can help to get the truck running again. I will be contacting them tomorrow, and hope that helps Bridgette, so she doesn't have to worry about it any more. She has plenty of other things to get done and should be able to just not have to deal with the truck too.
Thank you, for all your support and continued prayers for Jason and all the Wounded Warriors.

Incredible progress with taking a shower. Sounds like a lot of work but worth it once he was in there, so relaxing! The healing magic of water, love it. That would be so great if this next house works out, one more thing to cross off the list. Sounds like you all are getting a lot of support with the truck and all which is so great.ReplyDelete
We are having rain tonight and it's supposed to be cold. It's begining to feel a lot like Christmas.

Iraqi poet in St. Louis victim of alleged hate crime
According to this article on the KMOV website, and this one on The Blaze, Iraqi poet Alaa Alsaegh was the victim of an alleged hate crime in St. Louis. Two assailants allegedly carved the Star of David into his back. The attack, which took place on August 14, was, again allegedly, in response to a poem Alsaegh wrote in support of Jewish people in Israel.
From the KMOV article:
An on-line political magazine, FrontPage Magazine, published a photo of a man with a Star of David, carved into his back. News 4 interviewed the man, who says he was attacked on Compton Avenue, just south of downtown on August 14th.
Alaa Alsaegh says that two cars followed him as he drove on Compton. The drivers cut him off and Alsaegh says he pulled over. That's when two men got out of a car, armed with a handgun. They got into Alsaegh's car and attacked him with a knife.
Alsaegh showed us a photo that his friend took at the hospital. More than a month later, Alsaegh still has scars. News 4's camera captured the outline of the Star of David, visible on Alsaegh's back.
Alsaegh is a Muslim from Iraq. He says he recently posted a poem, online, expressing support for Jewish people in Israel. Alsaegh says that his attackers told him not to publish any more poems.
St Louis Police confirm that officers responded to a call for help around 10:45 a.m. on August 14th. The department referred News 4 to the local FBI office. Spokeswoman Rebecca Wu responded via email saying, "The FBI cannot comment".
The Front Page article, mentioned in both of the above, can be found here.

Studying depression-specific treatments for low-income Latino patients seeking care within a public emergency department
The Foundation's initiative, Finding Answers: Disparities Research for Change, was designed to use research and evaluation to test hypothetical solutions for reducing racial and ethnic disparities in health care settings and actual disparity reduction outcomes in ongoing programs.This project addresses the question of how to make quality depression care more accessible for low-income, minority populations. Although quality improvement interventions for depression in primary care settings have proven effective at improving access and quality of depression care, low-income, minority patients disproportionately utilize the emergency department (ED) as a surrogate for primary care and are rarely screened for or provided with depression treatment. For depression care to be effective and sustainable within public-sector EDs, interventions must be developed that are: (1) culturally and linguistically sensitive for minority populations; (2) accommodating patient preferences; (3) attending to the priorities of public-sector ED and hospital administrators; and (4) considering the capacity of public-sector facilities to maintain appropriate levels of depression care. In one of the largest public-sector EDs in the United States serving mostly low-income Latinos, the University of Southern California will assess whether a depression intervention that uses Latino community health workers (promotores) and a study social worker can improve access to depression care. Promotores will screen patients in ED waiting rooms for depression; 100 depressed patients will be randomized to the study intervention vs. a wait list control. Following an education session, intervention patients will be allowed to choose brief psychotherapy with the social worker, antidepressant medication from a psychiatrist, or both. Outcomes will be assessed using quantitative and qualitative methods and will include feasibility (use of depression services, barriers to implementation), acceptability (patient, provider and administrator satisfaction), possible effectiveness (depression severity, quality of life), health services utilization (number of emergency departments, primary care and mental health visits) and cost analysis. Information regarding the impact and sustainability of an intervention to improve depression care for vulnerable ED patients will be gained.
