Gun Dog Breeder Reviews for Anderson Kennels
Testimonials (12) | Back to Anderson Kennels
Submitted by: Lee on Dec 16, 2014We also had an excellent experience with Anderson Kennels. At almost 7 years old, our Boykin Ellie is the best that they come, smart as a whip and definitely a man's best friend. We get compliments ALL THE TIME on her. Thank you Eric and family for such a special part of our family.
Submitted by: Carl Coats on Mar 21, 2012Eric was great to work with. Friendly, knowledgeable, and it was obvious he has the best interests of the breed at heart. We've now had Amos for a little over three months and he is taking well to his training, has a great attention span, and has more heart and desire to please than I have seen in any dog yet. Thank you, Eric for breeding quality pups.
Submitted by: Cristian Hernandez on Mar 18, 2012Eric is really great to work with, and he has great quality dogs. I have had my pup for a little over a month and I already have her fetching in the water. I recommend this breeder to anyone who is looking for Boykin Spaniels.
Submitted by: mid & cindi love on Mar 01, 2012We were so lucky to have found Eric Anderson & Anderson Kennels when we wanted to find a Boykin pup. This increasingly popular breed is hard to come by. After talking on the phone with Eric, his knowledge and determination of keeping the integrity of the breed was wonderful. He's easy to talk to & being several miles away, he handpicked our pup and his family brought him almost to our door!!! Our "Gunner" is adorable, funny, beautiful, loyal and so very intelligent! Gunner is 15 weeks old today and is showing his instincts beautifully. I urge anyone looking for this breed to contact Anderson Kennels. Thanks Eric!
Submitted by: Doug Coleman on Jan 17, 2012What a pleasure to work with. Upfront and personable, very knowledgeable about the breed. We've had our dog just over a year and he is a tremendous little hunter.
Submitted by: Kendall Hyatt on Feb 15, 2010When my Golden Retriever had to be put down in April of 2009 I honestly didn't think I would find another great dog like her. I thought of getting a basset hound, but I knew I wanted a smaller dog. Eric is a family friend and my boyfriend was talking to him about everything when he suggestedbus to check out the Boykins. I met one of his female and just knew I had to have one of these dogs!! We have had Beaux now for about 5 months and I'm absolutely in love with him! He us such a loyal dog, who is full of character and charisma!! He's already retieving practice dummies for Clint, and he was very easy to train on the basics! He also reminds me so much of my Golden! I am extremely happy with this breed, and I would definetly recommend one of Eric's Bree to anyone looking for a loyal hunting dog who will also bring you a bunch of laughter!!
Thanks Eric for such a great dog!!
Kendall Hyatt and Clint Rust
Submitted by: Angie Yurch on Jun 17, 2009We had a great experience buying our Boykin Spaniel from Eric Anderson. He and his family were full of information about the breed and eager to answer any questions we had. We enjoyed all the pictures and comments they emailed us about the puppies since we weren't close enough to visit. We also appreciated them making an extra effort to meet us with our precious Ginger. She is so smart and has bonded with all of us quite easily. My two boys love her dearly and she loves chasing them outside. I would highly recommend Anderson Kennels to anyone looking to purchase a fantastic Boykin Spaniel.
Submitted by: Andrew on Jun 03, 2009I can't say enough good things about Eric Anderson. From the get go, he was patient, responsive, and helpful in everyway. He sent me pictures every step of the way and shared with me any helpful tips for the future. When I came to pickup the dog, he was very proffessional and had even given her a bath. I just took her into the vest for her first checkup/9 week shots and the vet said she was very healthy and had a great temperment for a puppy. I'd recommend Eric to anyone who is looking for a Boykin that is healthy and loving. If you would like any more information on Mr. Anderson or the dog I have, feel free to email me at email@example.com
Submitted by: David Fox on Jan 20, 2009I would to thank Eric and his family for a great experience buying a pup. We were always welcome to come by and see the puppies before they were ready to come home, which really helped us in choosing our dog. Cutty is now a year old and a delight to have around. He has been a dream to work with, from housebreaking to retrieving; always alert, attentive, and eager to understand. I can hardly imagine a better companion in the duck blind or on the couch. With Cutty, having fun comes first, and he and Drake are having plenty of it! Keep up the great work guys!
Submitted by: Bob Wilkie on Jan 15, 2009Our one year old puppy, Drake, has exceeded all our expectations. Our primary goal was to have a great pet/companion and secondary goal was to have a duck retriever. Drake was and has been the best pet/companion you could ask for. I sent him to trainer for basic 12 week program in late August and got him back just before duck season. He has also exceeded my highest hopes for a retriever. Can not say enough good things about Eric and his family. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Eric, thanks again for allowing Drake to become part of our family
Submitted by: Lawson Craig on Nov 29, 2008At almost our puppies first birthday, we wanted to take a minute to say how much we appreciated the entire experience of dealing with Anderson Kennels. They could not have been any more courteous or professional. Our puppy could not be smarter, funnier, or more loyal. Everything good that we heard about the breed is true of our puppy. We have hunted her only a few times and she did pretty well. The faults if any of her in the field were certainly not her's but more her trainers, namely me. I would highly recommend dealing with Anderson Kennels.
Submitted by: scott ishizaki on Jan 07, 2008Eric is a pleasure to work with, he is a man of his word, rare these days, we drove 2400 miles to meet his family and dogs, and it was worth it!
I would recommend Eric very strongly, Eleanor really has fire in her eyes, great bird dog. and Frank is a great looking hard working Sire. My dog Maverick has all the great attributes of both dogs, I could not be happier with Eric and Maverick. Looking Foward to hunting this year with Maverick!

Each week, we seek out expert advice to help a small or medium-sized firm overcome a key issue.
Fashion designer Pat Gillespie has just bought Rhonda Maternity Ltd., a retail clothing boutique in Toronto's upscale Yorkville neighbourhood. It was called Lady Madonna when it first opened in 1971, but those naming rights were lost and it became Rhonda in 1986, after the original owner, Rhonda Flomen, who is now retiring.
The store targets mostly first-time moms-to-be who are concerned with projecting a professional image at work, but the shop also offers dressy and casual wear. Most new customers come from word-of-mouth referrals at the office, through Google searches or are simply walk-ins. However, the store occasionally welcomes repeat and even next generation customers. "The ones who have heard about it from their mothers actually come in with their mothers," the new owner says.
Ms. Gillespie's part in the story goes back 25 years. She worked briefly for Rhonda's as a salesperson when she was fresh out of design school before starting her career as a buyer in women's fashions, then sold her own designs to the store after she co-founded a manufacturing company for maternity wear in 1989 (it closed in 2008). More recently she was the designer for Rhonda's house brand. While Ms. Gillespie plans to add new clothing lines and wellness products to the store, plus update the decor, graphics and website, including e-commerce, she's torn between keeping the Rhonda name, building on its heritage and known location, or rebranding with a younger, fresher name.
"I've seen the store through all its history, so it's hard for me to judge how other people see it," Ms. Gillespie says. "I've also known Rhonda personally for many years, so I feel too close to make an objective choice."
Ms. Gillespie's biggest worry is that the name Rhonda sounds as dated as the Beach Boys's song Help Me, Rhonda from the mid-1960s. Rhonda is no longer a popular name for a baby girl and "doesn't have a cool retro vibe," she says.
Another concern is that she's not Rhonda. "People ask if there's a Rhonda," Ms. Gillespie says. "And we say, 'Of course, and here she is.' But that won't have the same meaning now."
If she changes the name, the store would become Carry, the same name she plans for her new private maternity label. However, with a $30,000 budget for her relaunch, there isn't much money to rebrand.
"No matter what the name, I've got lots to invest in sweat equity," Ms Gillespie says. "I'm willing to really work social media and put in time and energy."
The Challenge: Should the new owner keep the name Rhonda and celebrate its legacy, or rebrand as the trendier Carry?
John Torella, senior partner, marketing, for the consulting firm J.C. Williams Group, Toronto
Ask yourself some questions. How is the brand currently perceived? The name has some strengths and weaknesses. It's been around for a number of years and has built an image as a specialty maternity wear store. They definitely have some strengths in terms of perception of quality, service and convenience as well as a strong private label. The name Rhonda may feel stale to her but I think that's in her mind. The name, although dated, can be refreshed and revitalized with a new logo, colour, typeface and graphics. If you think about brands that have gone on and on, they're constantly evolving. Dove is a great example.
When you change the name, the danger is that you have to start all over to build awareness, understanding and acceptance to where people will come into the store and give you a trial. I wouldn't be frivolous about making that kind of major change. A name is what you make it. I can literally make any name work. If Häagen-Dazs can be made a name for ice cream, you can make Rhonda Maternity work.
There's an axiom in branding. It's harder to forget than to remember. If you want people to forget about Rhonda's, you've got to make a huge investment in getting them to remember a new name. To me, that's very risky. My advice is to stay with the name. Refresh and revitalize it. Make the experience new and exciting so that the look, feeling, merchandise and staff all feel revitalized.
Revitalize the website before doing any kind of advertising so it's contemporary, dynamic and interesting. Curated content is so crucial. Mothers-to-be are looking for information. They want to know. Your website is a critical piece. Make the experience new. That's about product, the store look and service. Does it give you a takeaway feeling of modern or does it look old fashioned? That's as important as the name.Report Typo/Error

'Sharon Coade plays Zelda with heart-wrenching conviction in a performance filled with variety, moving smoothly from pathos to sad spite and piteous insecurity.' Emer O'Kelly – Sunday Independent – ZELDA
'..Zelda, played by a mesmerising Sharon Coade….is a joy to watch, utterly convincing and truly pulls us into Zelda's heart and soul…' Aisling Flynn – Meg – ZELDA
'Sharon Coade, incarcerated on the tiny stage that is the Theatre Upstairs, never flinches in her determination to proclaim Zelda's right to be heard and admired' Frank L. – No More Workhorse – ZELDA
'…a thoughtful, never overplayed, sincere performance….during the tales that she brings out the best, giving us a glimpse of a spirited person, full of life, love and daring, told with a distinct southern drawl, bringing a glow and glint to her eyes, like a giddy teenager, all very infectious, counterpointed by the despair…' Red Curtain – ZELDA
'Sharon Coade completes the strong cast as Hanna, a ball of nerves, torn between exasperation with her Mother and a thinly veiled devotion to her. The acting is phenomenal in both pieces.' Entertainment.ie – LOVERS
..'for me the performance of the evening was Sharon Coade as Shelly "The Machine" Levene. Both tragic and comic at the same time she never let one overpower the other in bringing to life a desperate, aging saleswoman with a sick daughter. For her the stakes are higher than most and the way she flips from her characters highs to her characters lows without dropping a beat was a joy to behold.' Caomhan Keane Totally Dublin – Glengarry Glen Ross
..'the cast, who deliver a series of star turns. Special mention must go to Sharon Coade and Jane Elizabeth Walsh for stepping into Lemmon's and Pacino's shoes respectively….' Le Cool – Glengarry Glen Ross
..'Sharon Coade's Shelly 'The Machine' Levene, who pulls off a convincingly femme (and sympathetic) Jack Lemmon' Lucy White – Metro – Glengarry Glen Ross

The reviews are in for Zelda at Theatre Upstairs featuring Sharon Coade. Here's what Emer O'Kelly had to say about it.
"Eddie Naughton has written an illuminating play, 'Zelda', on her troubled life, the text drawn from much of her own writing; the intelligence, the pain, and the desperation of the people with whom she and Scott surrounded themselves are all there."
"Sharon Coade plays Zelda with heart-wrenching conviction in a performance filled with variety, moving smoothly from pathos to sad spite and piteous insecurity. She is directed by Sarah Finlay in a set by Aoife Fealy, beautifully lit by Eoghan Carrick."

Bloody Disgusting
Our brothers in harm over at Bloody Disgusting caught up with Leigh Whannell to get the scoop on two of the filmmaker/actor's most well known franchises, Saw and Insidious. What did he have to say? Read on!
Pertaining to Insidious 3…
"I can say that it's not dealing with Rose Byrne and Patrick Wilson's characters anymore. We thought it would be best to wipe the slate clean and tell a new story. But Lin Shaye will be back, and we will be back. It actually felt a lot like writing the first one because you're dealing with new characters. You don't have to follow the throughline of the others; it's a fresh start. It doesn't follow the ending of the second one."
Pertaining to the 8th Saw film…
"I've seen a lot of tweets about it, but I haven't heard anything more about it. I don't think they're about to go into production on it quite yet; Lionsgate would let me know."
Stay tuned.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I was in an auto accident on January 23, 2010. My sister owned the car and let me drive it to work one day. I don't own my own vehicle and am not named on my sister's policy. How would I file the claim. I and my sister were notified that the person who caused the accident was not insured and we found that he died indigent and had no assets.
The insurance policy on the car would need to be checked to determine if you are covered as a family member or occasional driver, and to see if there is uninsured motorist coverage. A free consultation with a car accident lawyer would be in order, as a car accident lawyer would be needed to obtain maximum amount of insurance money available.

Nothing on this site should be taken as legal advice for any individual case or situation. This information is not intended to create, and receipt or viewing does not constitute, an attorney-client relationship.Ask a similar question
Possibly. You may be covered under your sister's policy if she has uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. You shouldn't have any trouble finding a Florida lawyer to assist you with reviewing the insurance policy. Assuming coverage exists, the lawyer can then assist you with preparing a claim.
www.forizs-dogali.comAsk a similar question
The answer is... Depends. From the fact situation you have listed it appears that you may be able to make a claim through your sister's insurance policy. However, I am sure that the insurance company will want some answers to very important questions regarding coverage. In addition, were you looking for the insurance company to provide coverage for personal injury protection (PIP) or for uninsured motorist coverage (UM)? Not to mention other coverage issues. If you would like, please feel free to call my office and so you can discuss your matter in greater detail with one of the attorneys in my firm. You can call tool free 1-855-368-3363 -- we represent people throughout the state. Either way, I would suggest that you contact an attorney and discuss your matter in greater detail.Ask a similar question
Generally, you should be able to file a Personal Injury Protection claim on your sister's policy.
Depending on two other optional insurance coverages known as Uninsured Motorist coverage and medical payments coverage, you would also be entitled to these also depending on the facts of your case.
Your living situation could affect this answer. If you were living with your sister as a licensed driver and this car was regularly available for your use, and these facts were not disclosed by your sister when she obtained coverage, it could effect your claim for benefits. Assuming that was not the case, you should be fine and you start the claim by asking her company for the appropiate claim forms and report the accident to them. I reccommend you speak with an attorney prior to filling out any documents or giving a recorded statement. You can learn more by visiting my website www.BryanCaulfield.com.

How Rhinoplasty Blends Beauty with Functionality for Plastic Surgery Patients
by John G. Apostolides, MD, FACS
Plastic surgery rumors rank among the top news headlines in Hollywood tabloids; and just recently, yet another celebrity confessed to going under the knife – again. According to US Weekly "Real Housewives of Orange County" star Alexis Bellino confirmed that she underwent a "nose job," or rhinoplasty due to a blend of aesthetic and functional concerns. Bellino's surgeon explained that the reality star requested surgery both in an attempt to refine the shape of her nose and also to help with chronic, debilitating sinus infections; and while some might assume that the latter was merely an excuse for the surgery in the wake of previous breast enhancement surgery and Botox injections, medical experts confirm that such procedures can significantly improve airflow and breathing ability – and provide a unique blend of beautification and medical treatment to both male and female patients alike.
Rhinoplasty is a specialized procedure in which a trained surgeon corrects and modifies the aesthetic units of the nose to improve the shape and profile according to each individual patient's request. At the same time, experienced plastic surgeons can make adjustments to ease breathing difficulty and sinusitis in patients who have structural abnormalities that affect their ability to breath easily. Such abnormalities can be brought on by any manner of causes, such as trauma, congenital anatomy, or previous and over-aggressive surgical procedures. While some patients may approach a plastic surgeon due to breathing problems or abnormalities like a broken nose, others may simply desire corrective work to fix a hump or curved nasal profile, or a round or boxy nasal tip. The proportions and shape of the nose can be optimized using cosmetic plastic surgery, maximizing each patient's individual facial beauty – and correcting medical concerns in the process.

Brilliance China Automotive Holdings (1114.Hong Kong) was the second biggest decliner in the MSCI emerging-market index. The stock retreated from a record close in Hong Kong after Citigroup cut its recommendation to sell from neutral.
Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology (1157.Hong Kong) jumped 4.8% Hong Kong, the most in seven weeks, after a Chinese daily apologized for publishing unverified stories questioning the finances of the construction-machinery manufacturer.
Bloomberg reports that India's central bank will probably raise its benchmark interest rate tomorrow for the second straight month, stepping up the fight against the fastest consumer-price inflation in Asia.
The WSJ reports that Indian regulators are expected to issue new rules governing the operation of foreign banks in coming days, in an effort to pressure them to set up local subsidiaries and lend more in poor, rural areas.
Reuters reports that economists lowered their forecasts for Brazil's 2014 economic growth to 2.13% from 2.20% previously, a weekly central bank survey showed on Monday. Economists also trimmed their forecasts for 2014 inflation to 5.92% from 5.94% previously.

The WSJ's Eric Yelp weighs in on Russia's plans to more than triple oil exports to China over the next decade.

Malaysia plans to introduce a 6% goods and services tax rate in April 2015 in an effort to shrink the shortfall between revenue and spending to 3.5 percent of gross domestic product next year from 4% in 2013, the government said on Oct. 25. The economy will expand 5% to 5.5% next year from an estimated 4.5% to 5%in 2013, according to the finance ministry

If you went to see Tropic Thunder and Pineapple Express this summer, then you got a double dose of Danny McBride, an actor who only seems to get funnier with every role.
McBride gained attention with his performance in the 2006 indie flick The Foot Fist Way, which he also wrote. Upcoming projects include the big-screen adaptation of Land of the Lost with Will Ferrell and East Bound and Down, an HBO series premiering Feb. 15.
"I play a major league pitcher who has lost his fastball, and he's spent all his money and he's just down on his luck," says McBride, who ranks at No. 60 on this year's list of Pop Candy's Top 100 People of the Year. "So he comes back to the town that he grew up in and crashes with his brother."
Last week Danny and I chatted on the phone about his big year, what's ahead and, oddly enough, our shared hometown:
Hey, Danny. Well, we're talking because you're one of my top people of the year.
(Laughs) I am thoroughly surprised.
Do you feel like you accomplished everything you hoped to in 2008?
You know, I looked back at my resolutions for last year, and it was just to lose five pounds. So I think I've exceeded what I set out to do for this year.
So if you had to single out one favorite moment from the year, what would it be?
There was a lot. I mean, I had a blast working on Land of the Lost with Will Ferrell earlier this year. There were many nights in Indian gaming casinos with me and Ferrell playing blackjack and taking the casinos down -- that's probably one of my favorite moments of the year.
And who was the most interesting person that you met all year?
Man, I don't know ... Oh, Sid and Marty Krofft. I'm not trying to keep plugging Land of the Lost, but it was pretty incredible to meet them for the first time. I was a big fan of all their shows when I was a kid, so it was cool to see the demented minds who had created all that stuff.
So you appeared in two of my favorite movies this year. What were some of your favorite films?
Besides Pineapple Express and Tropic Thunder ...
Yeah, besides your own movies ...
(Laughs) Yeah, I loved The Dark Knight. That was probably my favorite movie of the year, probably of the last few years. I recently saw Slumdog Millionaire and dug that a lot.
And you know, I think we might be from the same town, or we at least went to high school in the same town. I grew up in Fredericksburg, Va.
Bulls--t, that's exactly where I'm from! I actually still have a place back there, I'm getting ready to go back there next week.
No way! Are you going there for Christmas?
Yeah, my family still lives there, and I have a place in downtown Fredericksburg that I haven't been to ... I've been there, like, two weeks this whole year. But I try to get back there whenever I can. When did you graduate over there?
In '95.
Hey, that's the same year I graduated. Our teams probably played each other in football.
I'm sure, and if I went to any of those football games, I might've seen you there! That's crazy. Well, it must've influenced you -- I mean, I see The Foot Fist Way and I think our town had to have an impact on you and your writing.
Most definitely. You know, a lot of those angry sort of Southern man characters that I've been doing are based on different people I might've had as, like, a soccer coach or as a teacher. It's definitely influences of growing up in a town like Fredericksburg. Hanging out at Spotsylvania Mall ... you know the routine.
Oh, yeah. Cruising the parking lot at Taco Bell ...
... All the way down to the Roses parking lot and then back up. (Laughs)
You know, I have high-school kids who read my stuff, and sometimes they ask for advice. I don't know about you, but I spent a lot of my time in high school trying to get out.
I was the same way. You know, Fredericksburg was pretty limited. I definitely was ready to get out of there and my time had come. But once I got out of there and moved to L.A. and stuff, I sort of missed some of the more charming things about the town.
So how do you tell kids -- I mean, sometimes then it's hard to imagine you'll ever escape. So how does someone leave a small town, go to L.A. and have a movie career? How did you do it?
I think you just, like, steal some money from your parents, hitchhike, hop on a train, hopefully it'll take you to someplace in L.A. You can live under a bridge for awhile and resort to hard narcotics, prostitution. And hopefully with all that you can save up for a security deposit and move into an apartment. That was the path I took.
You know, I don't know ... it didn't seem like it was too hard to get out. I just went away to college and then I was like, "You know, I'm not going to move back to Virginia when I get out." So I just came out here to Los Angeles with a bunch of buddies I had gone to film school with. You know, for better or worse, we just tried to slug it out here. So I guess the moral is: Learn to read. Study hard.
How often are you recognized now?
It hasn't been anything that's been overwhelming or anything, but I do get recognized here and there. It's enough for it to be cool, like people are watching what I'm doing, but not enough for it to be of that Will Ferrell caliber, where he has to be escorted out the back of bowling alleys.
And what do people say to you?
They want to get high with me a lot. (Laughs) And I'm always surprised when people have seen The Foot Fist Way, so when people bring that up, I'm always surprised that's reached other people besides my immediate friends.
What are some of your goals for 2009?
Well, I'm still trying to lose that five pounds that I never shed, so hopefully that'll happen.
I don't think you need to now. I think it's OK.
Just get fatter? OK, I'm in. I hope next year can be as much fun as this year was. I hope the next year burns this year.

I was looking for some advise on writing lesson plans on a defensive handgun class I am trying to put together for the range. I know the material but have trouble put in a form to teach to students. Any advise or links to help would be appreciated.
Do you need a reference for the entire lesson, or an outline of a handgun 1 class...
Don"t let stupid be your skill set....
And Shepards we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee,
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, So that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command,
And we shall flow a river forth to Thee, And teeming with souls shall it ever be,
What level class.
Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunder bolt...... Sun Tzu.
The supreme art of war is to defeat the enemy without fighting........ Sun Tzu.
That should be easy if you have ever done a High School term paper or College term.
If you know what you are talking about it should flow rather easily.
Keep it simple, straight forward, and on line with the level of the class base experience.
It's a basic narrative.
It's easier to give advice, if we had more information on your target group, and what you are trying to impart.
" Blessed is that man, who when facing death, thinks only of his front sight"

Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, So that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command,
And we shall flow a river forth to Thee, And teeming with souls shall it ever be,
Good question but a little more info would help. Basic outlines on what should be covered will depend on time and shooter experience.
Some sources for ideas of how to divide up the various info that's useful to SD:
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.
Thoughts: Justifiable self defense (A.O.J.).
Explain: How does disarming victims reduce the number of victims?
Reason over Force: Why the Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
My dad was a great shooter but a poor teacher. He had no time for thos that didn't understand, and assumed that others already knew the subject. But what he was good at was demonstrating the basics, and insisting you did it right the first time. I taught skiing and snowboarding using a progressive method of teaching small lessons that like building blocks build skill as they are stacked on each other. Every few minutes Id give them a new skill to work on. By the end of the day the students had enough experience to safely get on and off a lift, and safely down the hill. And they could answer questions about why we did things that way. The more advanced students did not get bored, and the less advanced did not get left behind. This method works well for all skill levels but has to be based on the average skill set of the students. Good luck DR
I am in fact an NRA instructor for 6 years and have been teaching my state permit class for the same amount of time. I have also taught several individual students.I have also taken other training classes by other instructors. I have plenty of material and EXPERIENCE, and trying to expand on this. So if you have nothing positive to contribute please refrain from saying anything.
Unless I'm teaching an NRA course, in which case I stick pretty close to the required curriculum and I don't add stuff, otherwise the class runs way too far over. But when I'm teaching advanced pistol or CCW legal courses I work from an outline, or off a powerpoint.
I have my outline with my personal reminder notes in the margins to jog my memory so I don't forget pertinent items. Even when you teach the same class over and over you (well "I" anyway) can get off on a tangent and forget vital info if you don't have an outline.
As for developing course flow, the NRA instructor notebooks generally offer good instruction flows. You can modify the process to fit your specific class. For example I teach a non-NRA basic pistol/CCW class. I start with the safety rules, then gun operation, ammunition, malfunctions, etc. Then on to grip, stance, etc., with dry practice. Later we talk defensive tactics, attitude, laws, etc., then on the range briefing a replay of safety and operations, then firing activities, testing, certificates.
The above sentence takes about 6 hours in class and 2 on the range to accomplish BTW.
While I dont teach anything related to firearms, and self defense...
The first thing I do is set my time constraints. Including time for breaks, introductions, and Q&A periods. I also plan to run over time. I find this important as a class or an indiviual student may require more time, or the class may become involved in an unplanned important discussion.
Second is I lay out the material I need to impart to the students in a linier logical manner, breaking the material into three or four blocks to be seperated by bathroom breaks. Important note is the older your students the more important are the bathroom breaks...
While power-point and computer graphics my impress the class, not everyone reads or comprehends at the same speed. I always include hand-outs. Some subject matter is covered exclusively in these hand-outs. This will allow the student to follow closer to their own speed, and have reference material to review in their own time.
While the subject I teach is not firearms, there is enormous and varied kinds and level of energy. So I begin each class with a safety review. During each block and on every sub-subject I include safety considerations. I always end with a safety discussion. My personal style is that I allow questions at any time during any lecture. I NEVER ridicule or denigrate a student for a question. Questions asked can be a usefull tool to the instructor to understand the individual student and what material is actualy getting through.
There is a bit more I do, but this is the basic technique I use. I've found another thing that works is to have someone else go over the outline, soI can correct or make changes on something I may have missed.

Here is my dilemma. I want to get the Walther P99 compact next week at an upcoming gun show. I just got back from the range and shot my P99QA in 40 S&W. I really like the QA trigger but don't care for the snappiness of the 40 round. I believe if it was in 9mm, it would be a great shooter. Ship got me brainwash into getting the SA/DA which I like because of the decocker and the single action shooting after the first round. I plan on making this my carry gun. What I don't know is if I will like the QA better than the SA/DA. Has anyone shot both? My thoughts are to look for the SA/DA at the show but if I can't find it, I'll end up getting the QA.
On another note, I shot the 460 XVR again today and I don't care for it. It's like getting punched in the face everytime you shoot it. I'm sure I'll like it when I start reloading for it. I do plan on buying some more 460's rounds to let others shoot it just to see their reactions. I'm going to take a video of my son shooting to see if you can see the shock wave that thing gives off. I'll post it here later this week.
I hope everyone had a great xmas.

Tinnitus is estimated to affect over 17% of the world's total population. This is quite an alarming figure especially due to the fact that this infection disrupts the normal life of the patient.
The infection causes a ringing sound in the ear which is usually a great nuisance. The main causes of this disease include overexposure to high noise and chronic infections in the ear. Medical officers have not yet been able to come up with a complete remedy to this condition.
What is a Lipoflavonoid?
However there is a multi-vitamin, lipoflavonoid which is used in order to suppress this infection. The multi-vitamin also helps in suppressing depression and stress which worsen the condition.
How Does it Work?
The multi-vitamin concoction is used to improve the flow of blood in the inner ear and also in maintaining the overall health of the ear. Lipoflavonoid is a highly nutritious product that is inclusive of several other vitamins such as B6, B3, B2 and Lecithin among others. This multi-vitamin is a widely known medication for treating infections that arise as a result of tinnitus infections. Such infections include ringing, buzzing, whistling and thumping sounds in the ear.
The medication works in different ways such as the B12 vitamin component is used to treat the ringing voice in the ear. The multi-vitamin also plays an essentially important task of enhancing the blood flow in the ear such that the hair endings in the made to be flexible. Hair endings are used to transmit messages from the ear and to the brain.
Why Should I Use Lipoflavonoids?
The main advantage of using this multi-vitamin is that it's a natural product and therefore chances of side effects are greatly reduced. The medication can be taken alongside any healthy lifestyle and therefore does not need any lifestyle change in order to accommodate the treatment.
However in order for the medication to work well, it is important patients review their diet supplements. Foods that are rich in fats and oils should be substituted with others that are rich in protein and vitamins.
This helps in proper vessel formation and therefore instances of pressure in the blood stream are greatly reduced.
Exercise Will Help With Your Treatment
Regular exercising should also be introduced in the treatment procedures. Exercises help in the proper utilization of the vitamins by the body. It also reduces chances of vessel clogging as a result of fat deposits. Lipoflavonoid is an effective remedy to tinnitus which is a great nuisance.
Prevention is better than cure and therefore incorporating the multi-vitamin in your diet can save you a great deal in reducing tinnitus attack. Exposure to loud noise and music should be controlled so as not to damage the inner ear.

" Brand: Asda / Type: Chicken "
=============Asda "chosen by you chicken curry==========
Last night i was in Asda mooching about for something quick and tasty as i had been on my feet all day and knackered. Alot of the chosen by you ready meals i have tried i have been pretty inpressed with and to be fair have never actually shuddered with fear and disgust with a product from this range, I hadnt tried the chosen by you curry and rice so i thought i would get it a whirl !!
with any of the chosen by you range i so much prefer the style colour and the quality of the packaging that any SmartPrice product out there, and if i think about it with this range alot of the products are not "that" much dearer than smartprice, As i noticed the other week Asda smartprice sad excuse for a crumpet are 37 pence and the chosen by you which are fluffy and bigger are 65 pence !
Anyway (lol) The packaging has all the nutritional information needed with a picture of a hearty looking plate of food. Also says 9 mins from frozen in the microwave.
The meal itself looks rather sad if im honest on opening, but then i find alot of ready meals seem this way when frozen,
The meal contains :
593 calories (which i thought was quite high really)
19.6 grams of fat
8.4 grams of saturated fat
9.2 grams of sugar (what a shocker lol)
1.9 grams of salt (not to sad for a meal of this kind)
And if im honest on inspection of the ingredients list, there doesnt seem to be that many nasties in there which is a bonus i guess.
============deli belly ?============
I chose to microwave mine and would suggest the same to anyone wanting to try this curry as for one its quicker but i find that if you oven rice in a ready meal you always get crunchy bits that i find kinda ruin the meal, the rice goes a million times more fuffy when nuked.
all you have to do is pierce the lid in placed whack it in the microwave for 4 mins take it out peel back the film give it a stur add a few drops of water to the rice, pull lid over and whack it in again for another 4 mins and leave to stand for 1 minuite.
Easy peesy !. On taking it out of the microwave the kitchen had quite a nice mild curry smell which was rather pleasant.
I left it for a minuite to rest as i was told and in that time put a naan bread under the grill while i plated it up.
I was surprised at the amount of chicken as i did only expect 3 or 4 lumps but was surprised to count 7 fair sided pieces with just enough sauce to cover them, could have been a tad more sauce for the rice to be honest, but not terrible.,
Taste wise i cant fault this dish it does basically what it says on the box. its just not really that exciting, its basically mild curry sauce put on chicken with boiled rice. no extras no frills just chicken curry. no exploding taste buds or no really looking forward to the next mouthfull,
like i say the chicken is plentyful really but sadly quite dry and chewy, not enough to make me not like it, just well bland really to sum it up.
It did fill me up with a naan to be honest but i wouldnt rush out special to buy this again !
To be honest Mr Asda aint done a bad job of this mild chicken curry its ediable and ok the only thing that lets it down is the chewy chicken and the blandness. for a pound its a bargin because they sell garlic and corriander naans in asda for a mare 30p !!! so thats curry rice and a naan for one pound thirty and i dont think you can fault that.
I would buy chosen by you curries again just not this one thru choice, the korma one is so much better in my humble opinion !
Thankyou for reading :o) xx
This chicken curry with rice is in the "ready meal" section is Asda's frozen food. It's roughly £1.30 each but the price does fluctuate or you can usually buy 5 ready meals for £4 and they have a lot of offer, we used to buy the offer all the time but these days we just buy 1 or 2 every now and then. We stopped buying these so much because there are much better and healthier options for the same price or cheaper even and when you do compare this "ready meal" to a better option you realise that it isn't very good value for money.
This is aimed for people who want quick meals so these are mainly for cooking in the microwave, but you can put this is the oven for 40 minutes. However this takes around 10 minutes in the microwave so we know which option everyone will choose. Cooking this is strange if you cook these a few seconds less then it can be too cold and hard, cook this a few seconds over and it splats every where and the rice becomes too soggy. This comes in a plastic black container with a plastic clear film lid, please pierce the film lid in several places before cooking in the microwave or oven.
Once this is finished cooking your supposed to leave this to stand for 1 minute but I can never be bothered to wait, taking this out and taking the film lid off sometimes there seems to be a thin layer formed over the curry which I find very off putting so stirring this around quickly it all becomes mixed and back to normal. like I said before you have to time it just write, I'm pretty sure Asda have let their standards of these "ready meals" go down hill because the rice always seems to taste sloppy and soggy no matter what, it's never fluffy and just feels quite mushy and it never used to, so Asda must of changed something. The curry looks edible, the curry itself is an orangey red colour and the chicken comes in small lumps sometimes and bigger lumps other times, it's never the same.
Presentation matters a lot when it comes to your food, it needs to look nice and unfortunately this has never ever looked nice, the portion is quite small so it won't fill up a normal sized plate but also it's too big a portion for a small plate, so I end up slapping this into a bowl and mixing it all around. As far as curry goes this is pretty bland it tastes as simple as curry could ever taste, it's no particular type of curry, just curry. I shouldn't but I add salt and I also add in some black pepper, the pepper gives it some kind of flavour which is a massive improvement. The curry cannot even be described as mild because the only thing that makes this hot is the temperature. The chicken tastes like chicken, although I have a sneaky feeling that it's pretty much processed and you can often find gristly bits in it as well making it extremely off putting when biting into it.
So this looks like sick and sick would probably taste better than this does, so what's it's nutritional value? This has a massive 500 calories, that's a fine amount of calories for a meal, if you actually had a meal but this is nothing more than a snack that Asda have tried to pull off as a meal. Looking at the list of ingredients there is only 13% of chicken breast (wow can see you went all out with this one Asda) salt is mentioned 5 times in the short list of ingredients along with sugar several times as well.
The reason we stopped buying these is because it's a poor excuse for a quick meal, you can have a delicious massive salad sandwich each dinner time that takes less time to make, is cheaper and tastes amazing. These are terrible and yet I know a few people that use these for dieting, the nutritional value is through the floor and the tastes isn't even that nice.
Asda offer a wide choice of frozen and fresh ready meals. One of these meals is the Chicken Curry With Rice which is part of the Chosen By You range in Asda.
The curry comes frozen and can be cooked straight from the freezer. It is described as being "succulent chicken breast pieces in a mildly spiced curry sauce, with white rice". It contains no artificial colours or flavours and there is no hydrogenated fat present within the curry. Being chicken, it isn't suitable for vegetarians. There is also a beef or prawn version available.
The updated packaging(box can be recycled) is red and black and shows a tempting photo of the dished up curry. It contains all the relevant cooking, ingredients etc information. Inside the box, there is a black tray (check local recycling) holding the actual curry and also a film lid (cannot be recycled) covering it.
This curry can be popped into a microwave on full power for 7-8mins depending on the strength of microwave. It is worth noting you should pierce the film lid and allow to stand for 1min before serving.
Alternatively, you can preheat your oven to 200c and again pierce the film. Cook for around 40mins until fully cooked and do not reheat.

~Availability and Price~
Available in the frozen section of Asda stores or www.asda.com. The curry is priced at £1.30 with a continuous offer of 5 for £4.00 across a wide selection of meals.
~My Thoughts~
I am not the best of cooks..give me baking and I can do it but cooking proper, fancy dinners is something I have yet to master. I can do fajitas and spag bol with the help of Old El Paso or Dolmio but ask me to make a curry and I'm baffled. Plus the expense of decent chicken, rice, sauces etc its not affordable to us at the moment. Every week, I purchase a few frozen ready meals from either Asda or Tesco and these certainly come in handy for those "I can't be bothered" evenings!
Anyway, this curry is probably one of my favourites. I love a curry and cannot afford to indulge in takeaway curries often so this suits my needs. I buy these as part of the offer so in reality, get 5 meals for £4.00..80p for 1meal is super cheap in my opinion. This curry certainly appears somewhere in between a Chinese and Indian type curry so really, all tastes are catered for.
~Presentation is Key~
The curry is presented well..just a fork required unless you want to tip it onto a plate. Frozen, it doesn't look much..there is half white rice, half sauce with noticeable bits of chicken. I pop mine into the microwave for 7mins and within a few minutes, there is a delicious, spicy aroma travelling through to the livingroom..very tempting and a great introduction of what is to come next! Ping, one minute up and out it comes. I like mine on a plate so usually mix it all up and then pour..grab a slice of bread if I am feeling naughty and time for my dinner.
~Yum Yum Curry Tum~
So the finished curry looks tasty with quite a dark sauce and around 8 decent size pieces of chicken. The rice on its own is a little dry but there is sufficient sauce to coat it and when mixed up, it works well. There is a few random red spices and mini cubes of onions present but these are few and far between and offer more taste that they do texture.
The sauce is quite thick and covers the chicken and rice well without being too heavy. The chicken is cooked right through and offers a nice bite..nothing worse than mushy chicken. It certainly doesn't taste cheap and nasty. For me, the appealing part of the curry is the sauce as this is what offers the flavours and aroma. The sauce is quite creamy thanks to the coconut but not on the same level as Korma. It is quite mild but offers quite a spicy aftertaste which may not appeal to all but I find it quite favourable.
The portion size isn't massive and is quite high in calories but this and a slice of bread fills me up for dinner and I am left satisfied and full. The curry is always polished off by me and there is never any dodgy bits being pushed to the side of my plate. It is basically a cheap and easy to prepare yet tasty meal option and to me, doesn't taste like it has been frozen.
I fully recommend this curry :)

New flexible air duct
I have an older home that doesn't have any duct work from the air return vents to the furnance. The air gets pulled from the crawl space under the house and into the furnance. It's an odd setup. There are 4 air return vents in the house, just no duct work behind them. So I plan on installing the flexible duct in the crawl space. The flexible ducts are not my concern. My question is:
What goes on the end of the duct work. The air returns are about 12 inches wide and 8 inches high and the opening into the furnance is about the size of a standard air filter. Will these 'transitions' need to be custom made or should I be able to find them at a hardware store?
Try HD.. they have a selection of transitions. I don't recall if 8x12 is a stock one or not for sure...........
Your 12x8 grills will need a 10x6 boot (insulated is better) 1" flange thing. Double check and save a trip back to the store.
You may need to build a return air plenum out of duct board. don't forget to leave access for your filter.
my only suggestion is try not to use flexible duct,.... instead... use the solid ducting material... to make your job more solid/robust rather subject to deteriation... and you certainly need a solid adaptor at the inteface you are talking about which is the most difficult part... then route out from there using solid piping isn't that difficult.... you may be able to build the interface yourself with the supplies from HD....

'May Allah Reward You for Your Food Habits': VICE on Yahya Hassan, Denmark's Most Popular Poet
VICE Magazine's got coverage of the bestselling (as in, of all time) Danish poet Yahya Hassan, an 18-year-old Muslim Pakistani immigrant whose controversial work (he published a self-titled debut collection in October) has resulted in a media "shitstorm," death threats, harassment, and assault. "His poetry, written in all caps in Danish, is full of rage directed at his parents' generation, a group of Muslims he accuses of hypocrisy and abandoning their children. He's penned lines like: YOU YOU'RE A MUSLIM? / YOU YOU DON'T KNOW/ IF YOU WANT HALAL OR HARAM / YOU YOU KNOW YOU WANT HARAM / BUT YOU YOU PRETEND YOU WANT HALAL / YOU YOU DON'T WANT PIG / MAY ALLAH REWARD YOU FOR YOUR FOOD HABITS." More, from writer Andreas Müller Digens:
He's been a frequent guest on television programs where he debates other young Muslims, and his willingness to bluntly criticize them in front of outsiders has earned him many accolades from the media. Yahya Hassan sold 11,000 copies in the first 24 hours it was available, and over 100,000 have been printed total, making it the most popular Danish poetry publication of all time.
His fellow Muslims, however, have a lot less affection for Yahya than Danish society. "To many young Muslims, Islam is an identity marker, like belonging to a subculture, such as punk," said Helle Lykke Nielsen, a PhD in Middle Eastern studies and an expert in integration at the University of Southern Denmark. "They feel they've had their identities attacked by Yahya Hassan's poetry."
Yahya has been literally attacked by his detractors. On November 18, the poet was assaulted by a radical Muslim who had previously been convicted of terrorism under Danish law. Later that month he did a reading in Vollsmose, a poverty-stricken suburb of Odense that's home to many Muslim immigrants. The authorities had so many concerns about the event they gave Yahya bodyguards and made all of Odense a no-fly zone.
Read the full piece at VICE. The Wall Street Journal also wrote about Hassan in December.
"There's something wrong with Islam," Hassan, a self-proclaimed atheist, says. "The religion refuses to renew itself." It needs a "reformation."
His poems carry titles like "CHILDHOOD" and "DISGUSTED," dealing with issues like the Holocaust, anti-Semitism, child abuse, and the interplay between violence and religion. Profanity and vivid analogies help carry his work.
Hassan welcomes dialogue, saying he didn't become a poet to "build a career" and has "no political agenda."
As for his harsher critics who have threatened to hurt him, Hassan says "I know these people." After stubbing out another cigarette, he leans forward putting his elbows on his knees, shivering slightly in response to the cold Scandinavian evening setting in. "They can't handle criticism…they're not interested in dialogue."

I hit my wife with our code word for danger and then I draw as inconspicuously as I can. I continuously tell her what is happening while acting calmly. I keep my gun hidden. As he is coming in the door I tell her to act like she dropped a napkin and get down (or anything to find cover). I find as much cover as I can without looking like it.
If the BG comes in aggressively with his gun out I drill him multiple times. If I don't see a gun I keep close tabs on him while the wife and I exit asap.

New iPhone, iPad Pro give businesses true flexibility in selecting Apple products
Monday's Apple event might not have dropped the next bombshell, must-have, industry-changing product, but it certainly showcased some new hardware that will transform businesses. Apple turns 40 on April 1, and its new hardware demonstrates the company's evolution in its offering to businesses large and small.
The event was wide-ranging, moving from encryption to recycling to CareKit and ResearchKit.
But Apple announcements are all about the hardware. Apple's new iPhone SE and 9.7-inch iPad Pro both offer new tools for the enterprise, in a move that presents organizations a growing list of more specialized options that fit specific employee roles with fewer compromises. At the same time, Apple is helping admins better support these tools with several MDM features now live in iOS 9.3. Let's take a look. Continue Reading…
