Norton Takes Action on GSA Overspending
Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) today released her letter to General Services Administration (GSA) Acting Administrator Dan Tangherlini, asking him to consider using in-house event planners, who are already employed by GSA, to plan future events, instead of contracting with outside event planners. Norton sent a copy of the letter to the Office of Management and Budget Acting Director Jeff Zients, because she believes contracting out event planning was responsible for many of the problems with excessive spending for the November 17, 2010, GSA awards ceremony in Crystal City, VA, and possibly other events and conferences. The letter follows up on Norton's questioning of a GSA representative at a hearing of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee on August 1, 2012, on wasteful spending by GSA for the November 17, 2010, awards ceremony, one month after the GSA Las Vegas conference that grabbed headlines and was the subject of prior committee hearings. A total of $268,732 of taxpayer money was spent for the one-day November 17, 2010, event. The largest single cost, $104,484.17, was a payment to an outside event planner, although GSA had event planners on staff.
In her letter, Norton recommends that "GSA and other federal agencies use only a fairly small cadre of internal federal employees who could be dedicated to conference planning and perhaps similar events as the agencies find appropriate."
The full text of Norton's letter follows.
Dear Acting Administrator Tangherlini:
At the August 1, 2012, Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure hearing, "GSA: A Review of Agency Mismanagement and Wasteful Spending -- Part 2" that focused primarily on the November 17, 2010, General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Acquisition Service division performance award ceremony in Crystal City, VA, I noted that by far the largest expense for the $268,732 one-day conference was $104,484.17 spent for an outside event planner. Under questioning, the GSA representative said that the agency has in-house event planners on staff. Yet GSA contracted with outside event planners at significant cost to taxpayers. I would not be surprised if contracting for event planning is the usual practice at GSA and other federal agencies.
Aside from the considerable expense of the November 17, 2010, conference, the details concerning the other expenses at the event, and at GSA's Las Vegas conference the prior month, reinforces my impression that event planners are accustomed to events for private companies, which do not have the constraints that taxpayers would expect and, therefore, they should be used only for special occasions and as authorized. For example, I do not believe that federally employed event planners would have spent $20,578.24 on drumsticks, $28,364.45 on picture frames, and $7,810.24 on shadowbox frames, as the November 17, 2010, conference had, particularly during a recession.
Without the cost of the outside event planner, the drumsticks, the picture frames, and the shadowbox frames, none of which were integral to the award ceremony, the cost of the ceremony would have been $71,494.90, less than one-third of the cost of the conference, and still would have included catering, room rental charges, a food and drink reception with live music, transportation, and more.
GSA's practice of contracting out event planning probably is replicated elsewhere among federal agencies. I recommend that GSA and other federal agencies use only a fairly small cadre of internal federal employees who could be dedicated to conference planning and perhaps similar events as the agencies find appropriate. Such a change could help agencies and federal employees more fully understand the scope, size, and appropriate amenities for federal agency conferences and would ensure greater compliance with executive and congressional guidance. Importantly, the use of in-house personnel would save taxpayer funds. Because I believe that the administration should consider this recommendation for other agencies as well, I am sending a copy to Jeff Zients, Acting Director of the Office of Management and Budget.
I would appreciate an early reply concerning this recommendation.
Eleanor Holmes Norton

Another primer "order" question...
Hi all,
I have a gallon of SPI epoxy and a gallon of 2K high-build. I'd like to spray the 2K over bare metal, do the filling and sanding, then use the epoxy as a seal coat. The reason being I've already used the epoxy for the running boards and some of the floor and it's a pain to do small sections (like I need to do). The cleanup is pure h&ll and after the 7 day working "window", it's pretty tough to scuff especially in hard to get to areas. Would this be OK?
epoxy should go on first, your 2K surfacer can go directly on the epoxy without scuffing if it's applied within the window, the 2k will need to be scuffed/sanded before you apply any topcoat.
I agree. Epoxy first...
absolutely epoxy first, then 2k block and then if there is any places you have burn through sanding, you can shoot epoxy on the spots and paint ..mike
Ooookayyyy. I sure hate to hear that, it makes so much more work! I epoxied my frame rails to keep them from rusting and after welding in my boxing plates will need to do it all over again. Same will happen with each piece or panel that I finish now and weld in later (which will be everything). I just don't have the facilities or time to do it all at once...
Thanks for the replies!
A small tip, if you find places you cant sand for some reason, spray a little bulldog adhesion promoter on it before you bc/cc... not a replacement for sanding, but will help in hard to reach area's
Good tip bondo,, i always try to come up with some kind of contraption for the hard to reach areas, but your idea would probably work also..
but I agree epoxy first, now he might be able to get away with just using the turbo primer, but it's still good to epoxy first..

About the Producer

His winery is now the leading producer of the denomination and remains in the loving care of his family, now in the 3rd generation.

The title says it all. I'm finally doing something for me. Yes I'm so called "skinny" but if you asked me to run a mile. My heart would combust. I would never say that I let myself go after having kids but I would admit that I didn't make time to actually be fit. What I mean by fit (my standards) is someone that could lift their own body weight if needed to climb over a fence or maybe get a few pull ups in. Or maybe if someone tried to harm me that I could sort of defend myself. I am a former athlete and it sickens me the way that I have "let myself go."

Let's just be honest here. I have never read one Primal/ Paleo book before. Only cookbooks J So when Peggy sent me a complimentary copy I was super excited! The structure of the book, with it's bold headlines and easy to read, concise paragraphs are any readers dream come true. Peggy has researched & referenced so many books & websites and placed them into one complete book. I just enjoyed reading the book from cover to cover. The book is not only about pregnancy let's just get that question out of the way. She speaks about what it truly means to be a beautiful primal woman. This requires nutritional based food, plenty exercise and reduction of stress. Although, much Emphasis on Food. The most exciting facts for me since I have already had my children are about collagen, stretch marks, cellulite, hormones, varicose veins, healthy hair, abdominal muscles, and saggy...Read More Post a comment (0)
I was able to help The Paleo Parents test out some of their recipes for the book, so I have been excited for a long long time to receive a copy of this book. And wholly pig they did not disappoint. This is way more than I expected. The recipes alone are worth the price of the book. But the recipes aren't all that they provide you with. The book starts off with a foreword by none other than Joel Salatin. If you don't know who Joel is, Google it. You will love him, I guarantee it. Then Stacey and Matt layout the whole process of the pig. From why you should focus on pasture raised pig, what cuts to get to the sciencey side of benefits of the pork to the so called Hazards of pork.

A few months ago a purchased an awesome jerky gun. I bought it at Cabela's when I was picking up my 1/2 cow in the parking lot. Fitting right. I bought it here because they had a high quality stainless steel model. I didn't want to get plastic because I have heard they can break. But, if you just want to try out a cheaper option totally go with a plastic one. I love my jerky gun. Plus I am able to use ground beef which is so much cheaper than buying a hunk of meat. I made two different recipes. Mainly because I wanted to tweak one and came up with a whole different recipe. I ran out of Coconut Aminos so I had to improvise. It worked out though. Although I have no idea what to call the recipes. Also, I didn't use any nightshades because I am in the...Read More Post a comment (3)
Does anyone out there try to take ACV in the morning? Do you find it just revolting to drink. I know I do. But I know the benefits out weight that taste. Luckily I came across Bragg's ACV drink. It tastes great, but costs like $3-4 and has a little bit a stevia in it. I know the amount of stevia is minimal, but it's still there. So I figured I could make this drink myself. Granted its not as sweet as the Bragg's drink, but it's still easier to drink than straight up ACV. I believe I put more ACV in my version too. Its a lot darker so, yes it is stronger tasting. Benefits? Well if you just google Benefits of ACV you will get all kinds of answers. I started drinking it to help aid digestion and get things going in the morning.

Ground Blind Question
Is a ground blind able to be left up in wind at or over 25mph without risk of damage?
Funny, today I passed my hunting buddy's home and he was outside setting up a new ground blind. Seems these things are getting more popular all the time. With today's cold rain maybe he has the right idea??? Someone here will give you a wind factor, for sure.
I have a predator blind (Dick's Sporting goods) and it's not the high dollar kind but it does the job. I've had it out for 2 weeks and actually hunted in it last friday night with winds around 20 mph with gusts up to 30mph. As long as you have it staked down properly you should be fine. Plus "brushing" it in will help keep some weight down on it and help it not blow away.
I'll have to remember that for next time tator. The weatherman made the wrong prediction, the strongest wind was only around 2mph, which makes me angry as I don't want to disturb the area when big bucks are around during the daylight
ive been in mine in around 35mph winds and it was staked down and i usualy laylimbs with leave still on them on the blind as well kind of around the sides, i've always been scared to put stuff on top because i dont want to be inside and have it deside to pop back in into my face lol. anyways my blind is an amera step G-30 bought from wal mart few years ago for 120 but can get at bass pro or any were else that sells amera step stuff, did good shook like hell even though was gonna come loose a few times but never did.
I also have the G-30 blind never had a problem with wind like Tator mentioned as long as it is staked down
here in NH I did have an issue with snow actually lost my blind we got an early snowstorm one year 8-10" & it flattened the blind luckely it warmed up enough the next day or so & the point of the roof was sticking out
I thought it would be junk but as I started digging it out it popped right back up & is still fine today

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) -- A spokesman for TransCanada Corp. says the company is encouraged by the results from its recent solicitation of interest in an Alaska natural gas project.
Shawn Howard says there was interest from potential shippers and "major players from a broad range of industry sectors and geographic locations," including North America and Asia. He declined to name them, citing confidentiality.
He didn't say if preference was shown for a project that serve North America markets or for one that would allow for liquefied natural gas exports overseas.
The non-binding solicitation ended Sept. 14. The expressions of interest are just that: not firm commitments to any one project.
Howard says TransCanada continues to work with the North Slope's major players to evaluate options for bringing Alaska gas to market.

Steady on there, chaps. Tucked away at the end of the Guardian's leader column today is a suggestion that Alistair Darling is no longer "unthinkable" as a future Labour leader – and should certainly keep his job if Gordon Brown wins the coming election.
I'm sure the first suggestion would horrify the chancellor, who is modestly not that way inclined. As for the second, well, no, I don't think the current prime minister is going to be in a position to appoint the next chancellor on 7 May.
Level-headed chap that he is, I doubt if Darling thinks that either in his quieter moments, though in politics you have to be an optimist: it's what keeps them going.
How optimistic was yesterday's budget? How level-headed? The overnight media reaction has been mixed. The chancellor has gone from "Robin Hood" – helping the poor – to "Alistair in Wonderland" – ducking the debt mountain – in the space of 12 hours. It was ever thus.
So the Daily Telegraph called the budget a "tax raid on the middle class", its usual default position that would equally apply to a German invasion of Dover.
The Daily Mail called it "disingenuous, cynical and, let's be blunt, untruthful," a description that could be applied to the Mail's brilliant editorial package most mornings. It wheels out several of its regular blowhard columnists to denounce it in even more lurid terms.
Thus my old sparring partner, Peter Oborne, savours Darling's "cunning duplicitous mind" beneath the boring exterior and – as an ex-stockbroker – solemnly proclaims that if a FTSE company had issued such a budget statement the fraud squad would have been called in.
There are several layers of irony in that extreme judgment that confirm my belief that it's plain silly. Suffice it to note in passing that the Mail's editorial sells the pass in paragraph three when it says of the budget: "Admittedly, it could have been worse."
Elsewhere the paper manages to complain that the chancellor didn't give away enough – and that he didn't cut enough either. Hey ho.
Across the political aisle, the Guardian and Daily Mirror liked the budget quite a lot, as I did myself, though I am worried that the economic growth projections – up to 3.5% next year – are optimistic. Everything else depends on them, especially the drive to cut the public expenditure deficit which is piling up borrowing.
The Guardian's Larry Elliott, who wrote a book about the candy-floss financial economy long before the crash, is cross that Labour over-emphasised the City at the expense of manufacturing – he wrote about Birmingham's dwindling clout yesterday – but is glad that this error is now being addressed.
Patrick Wintour reports that Peter Mandelson (did he learn to understand interventionist economic strategies watching EU governments close up, I wonder?) and Darling prevailed over the Brown-Balls approach on this occasion.
Where most weighty commentary agrees to be disappointed – Financial Times and Times included – is in the chancellor's failure to spell out more convincingly where he is going to cut excess public spending if he is re-elected. It's not good enough to say the NHS will save £400m by tackling staff sickness rates, admirable though that ambition is.
But Anatole Kaletsky of the Times, who is always worth reading, writes that all three main parties were feeble on the key point yesterday – Darling, Cameron and Clegg – but that Darling was least bad. He had a credible vision for encouraging resumed growth – the key to everything, much more so than those cuts that obsess the Tories and their tax-exile media allies.
Kaletsky also makes the point that an economy that has shrunk 6% usually finds if easier to achieve 3% or more growth in the bounce-back – as happened after the last two recessions. Good point, though the global economic situation beyond our control is fragile.
How the chancellor's tax changes affect different citizens depends on which paper you read. The Tory press finds wealthy people and entrepreneurs allegedly scandalised by the extra £10,000 a buyer will have to pay on a £1m house – or the extra tax over £100,000.
A more sensible assessment would note that the capital gains allowance for wealth creators has been doubled to £2m. It was ever thus; they would complain about a VAT rise, just as they do today about the national insurance rise.
My own gripe would be that the chancellor failed to tell the watching voter that he is freezing personal allowances at a time of 3% inflation, thereby pulling in a £1bn or so of extra income tax via what is known as "fiscal drag". It was there in the small print.
But that's life. When the saintly Vince Cable was setting out his views and plans – Vince even sees himself as a potential chancellor in a hung parliament, and why not? – Radio 4's Evan Davies naughtily asked him if he backed the extra cider tax that has generated so many Worzel Gummidge jokes this morning.
No, he said. The minimum unit pricing option is best to tackle boozing. Oh dear, he was sounding just like a politician in search of votes – which is, of course, just what he is. Much of the cider business is located in Lib Dem strongholds.

Plaxico Burress, if he hasn't already, might be sending Chad Johnson a text message that says, "Dude, what did you have to go and do that for?"
Or something to that effect, because Johnson certainly didn't do Burress any favors over the weekend.
Burress, who worked out for the New England Patriots on Sunday, is still looking for a job. And until Saturday, Johnson was doing fine keeping his with the Miami Dolphins. But then the 34-year-old Johnson was arrested on domestic assault charges for allegedly head-butting his wife, which resulted in the team releasing him Sunday.
A wide receiver getting into trouble off the field? Go figure.
Burress, as we know, spent two years in prison on felony gun charges after his infamous nightclub incident. He rebounded in 2011 with a pretty productive season, hauling in 45 catches for 612 yards and eight touchdowns for the New York Jets. Burress, 35, showed he still could be a threat, particularly using his 6-foot-5 frame in the red zone. He also wasn't the receiver on the team causing drama.
One would think teams could use his skill set -- especially at a bargain price. And certainly there seem to be a few teams who could -- and maybe should -- be willing to bring him in for training camp (the Steelers, Cowboys and Titans immediately come to mind).
The problem now, fair or not, is that Johnson's off-field trouble could factor negatively into Burress' chances of landing with an NFL team. If they were shying away before, how about now?
Fact is, Johnson's arrest serves as a reminder of the potential headache a receiver with a troubled past could bring to the locker room.
And there's nothing Burress -- or super agent Drew Rosenhaus -- can do about that. It's all Johnson's fault.

not to be a spoiler or anything, but frumaroll is truly getting out of hand if we are now talking about STARTING at 75 mph. Whats next....frumaroll around 125, my car can take yours till 130.
I guess I'm just old school... Once a rolling start, short duration, strait line race is amalgamated and endorsed professionally, I'll join the crowd. Until then, it's from a stop/a dig/a holeshot. I still laugh everytime I hear that new Toyota truck commercial endorsing it's product for it 50-70 mph or some such nonsense speed. Why don't they just say frumaroll and be done with it?

Gain hands-on experience with HDF5 for storing scientific data in Python. This practical guide quickly gets you up to speed on the details, best practices, and pitfalls of using HDF5 to archive and share numerical datasets ranging in size from gigabytes to terabytes.
Through real-world examples and practical exercises, you'll explore topics such as scientific datasets, hierarchically organized groups, user-defined metadata, and interoperable files. Examples are applicable for users of both Python 2 and Python 3. If you're familiar with the basics of Python data analysis, this is an ideal introduction to HDF5.
Andrew Collette holds a Ph.D. in physics from UCLA, and works as a laboratory research scientist at the University of Colorado. He has worked with the Python-NumPy-HDF5 stack at two multimillion-dollar research facilities; the first being the Large Plasma Device at UCLA (entirely standardized on HDF5), and the second being the hypervelocity dust accelerator at the Colorado Center for Lunar Dust and Atmospheric Studies, University of Colorado at Boulder. Additionally, Dr. Collette is a leading developer of the HDF5 for Python (h5py) project.
View Andrew Collette's full profile page.
The animals on the cover of Python and HDF5 are Parrot Crossbills (Loxia pytyopsittacus). Rather than being related to parrots in anyway, the Parrot Crossbill is actually a species of finch that lives in northwestern Europe and western Russia. There is also a small population in Scotland, where it is difficult to distinguish the Parrot from the related Red and Scottish Crossbills.
The Parrot Crossbill's name comes from the fact that the upper mandible overlaps the lower one, giving it the same shape as many parrots' beaks. This adaptation makes it easy for the birds to extract seeds from conifer cones, which are their main source of food. In Scotland, they are specialist feeders on the cones of the Scots pine.
It is very difficult to tell Parrot Crossbills apart from the other species of Loxia, but there are a few clues. Parrot Crossbills are slightly bigger, have the curved beak, and have a deeper call than the others. They also tend to have a bigger head. All three species share the same territory and breeding range; the males are reddish orange in color, while the females are olive green or gray.
On average, a female will have a clutch of three or four eggs, which she incubates for about two weeks. Once the chicks have hatched, they live in the nest for about a month before starting out on their own. Due to its large geographic range and stable population numbers, the Parrot Crossbill is not considered endangered or threatened in any way.

A few errors but overall a great book for HDF5 in Python
By Onn
from Sydney
About Me Developer
Best Uses
Comments about oreilly Python and HDF5:
This guide to HDF5 manipulation - via the Python h5py library - is written by Dr Andrew Collette, a physics laboratory research scientist who is also the leading developer of h5py (one of the 2 main Python libraries that specialize in HDF5). He puts his own extensive background of using h5py, as well as his hands-on experience in behind-the-scenes development of h5py, to full use in writing this guide that introduces HDF5, from basic file construction and data storage, all the way till advanced topics like using parallel computing in HDF5 file manipulation. Familiarity with Python and the numpy Python library are assumed, especially data types (dtype) and matrix manipulation, but thankfully, you don't need to be a numpy wizard to follow through the examples.What I like about this book is that it is readable (with little/no excessive jargon), concise, and easy to follow - although it is only 152 pages, all the topics are cleanly structured and comprehensively covered with lots of examples; there is minimal fluff or filler material - to me, this is the ideal technical book: simple, and to the point. If you are wondering whether ploughing through this book is worth it, I can tell you upfront that it is definitely worth a look, especially given the limited information available on the h5py webpage as well as information found through Googling. I especially like the sections on types and references, as well as the best practices he highlighted, especially in terms of data retrieval and writing (I don't use parallel computing so did not delve into the last concurrency chapter, nor the section on dimension scales).My main grouse, however, is that one of the array compound type described in the book is buggy - it simply didn't work (I'm using h5py 2.2.1), and upon Googling, found that it is an acknowledged bug. Another grouse (albeit a minor one), is that the title is a bit misleading, it should be called 'Python h5py and HDF5' or something, since Pytables (the other main Python library dealing with HDF5) isn't covered at all.Overall, this book is worth checking out, especially given the conciseness, clarity of writing and the comprehensive treatment of HDF5 file manipulation. Good stuff! :)
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

704/957-0744 - cI am very disappointed to see that Ruddick Corp. & Harris Teeter have decided to suppress my second amendment right by posting signs prohibiting the LEGAL carrying of weapons! Carrying a handgun openly holstered is completely legal in NC just as is carrying a concealed weapon with a permit. To obtain such a permit requires one to obtain weapons training and submit to extensive criminal & mental health background checks.
You have the right to carry a handgun for personal protection and the right to choose not to. However, when you decide that I cannot exercise my rights in your store, I will be glad to take my business elsewhere. My safety is worth much more! Those signs will do nothing to prevent criminals from carrying weapons; they'll carry regardless that is why they are criminals. I will miss your excellent deli and great customer service but I am a firm believer in the constitution.

The ad in America's First Freedom shows the NRA 5.11 vest for $69.95. It includes a free holster and magazine pouch ($23.90 value).
I am asking for anyone with experience with this vest to comment.
I understand that it is set up to be able to carry a handgun on either side, using a panel (to prevent printing and give a support base) that inserts into an inside pocket.
Is this vest suitable to be able to cover a gun worn at 3 o'clock on the hip in a Fobus paddle holster? I would want to carry a GLOCK 27 in this Fobus holster. I don't want to get the vest and find out that it does not come down far enough to cover the gun's muzzle, and that the only usefulness of the vest is if the inside pocket is used for carrying the gun. I have never used a vest that carries the gun, and while I might like that too, I want the option of hip carry.
Also, is the vest made specifically for NRA? The photo shows that it has an NRA logo embroidered over the left chest. Many consider this to be a giveaway sign that one is carrying a gun. Anyone have the black vest, and can say if the black-on-black logo shows up significantly?
I just found "5.11 Tactical" online -- apparently they are the company that makes the NRA version of the vest for NRA. (???) Should I just go through them?
Here is a link to the 5.11 tactical vest, and it sure looks like the exact one the NRA offers. But the NRA version is offered in size L at $69.95 including the holster/mag pouch, while 5.11's site sells the vest for $74.95 and I don't see any mention of the holster insert, etc.

These vests are suitable, like a fanny pack worn in front, to let everyone know that you carry a gun. If that's ok then it is a good purchase.
The following link has 5.11 vests for $39.99. It's the best price I've ever seen, except on Ebay.
I have two 5.11 vests (one khaki, one black). They are great for concealing an IWB holster or, to a lesser extent, an OWB holster. I have tried the nylon holster that fits inside the vest panels, and found it to be bulky and uncomfortable, particularly with a handgun with any weight. I removed the velcro panels in my vests to make it cooler and lighter.
The 5.11 vest works great for me in South Carolina in the fall, winter, and spring. When the temperature gets above 75, it's time for a lighter cover garment. The material in the vest is heavy, and it's double thickness in most areas. I have some other vests by Columbia Sports that are thinner and more comfortable, but I still wear the 5.11 alot. The 5.11 pants and shirts are comfortable, too. I wear them to work almost exclusively, and I'm not a LEO.
My local Police Supply has the digital camo versions for $40 and the solid colors for $45

The second amendment is the reset button of our Constitution.
NRA patch or not, the vest screams "man with a gun". I don't think the NRA patch is going to make a difference. There are a few other threads going now on the 511 vests, everyone that has one likes it.
I have teh 5.11 vest. i have found most guns weigh down the concealed pocket alot. I just use my vest for a cover garment and other tools.
My advice, don't buy the NRA package deal, just get the vest. Others here have for Smith and Alexander to be a good vest.
"In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock." Thomas Jefferson
Nemo Me Impune Lacesset
As a cover garment, okay, but still a bit heavier and hotter to wear in FL, than most other styled vests. It is well made and has LOTS of pockets, Forget using the gun pocket/slot and velcro holster to actually carry & conceal a gun. Way too bulky and the gun weighs down the vest noticably on whatever side you use. I personally find my light weight vests much better. Just my 2 cents. I'd suggest SEEING one,BEFORE buying one. Wish I did.
Now, the NRA aspect will definitely alert folks that the wearer is a pro-gun person, and will confirm suspicions of gun folks that the vest is being worn for concealment reasons.
I like mine. If anyone comments on it at all, most just ask if I'm going fishing...I guess it screams "FISHING".
"Take what you have with what you are, make something of it, and never be satisfied." G.W. Carver
Personally, I prefer a Cabela's safari vest over the 5.11.
The comments I get are typically "how was the fishing" or "are you a photographer?" Any day fishing is a good day, whether I caught something or not. And I am a photographer (amateur).
And, I have at times, spotted others with vests and tried to begin a conversation about CCW only to find out that they had no idea what I was talking about.....????????
Most wouldn't even suspect a BULGE to be a gun, yet alone what a vest might cover.
I would, however, not buy a vest with NRA logo...
By the way, Sixto...do you work an area near I-75? If the wife and I head to the North this summer to see my grandchildren, I'd stop and buy you a cup of java and share 20 minutes of conversation on the way!
OMHO on the vest approach...
Take care,

I looked at the site and found out that you can order a vest without the NRA logo. I went on ahead and purchased one, w/o logo, with the intent of using it as a cover garment...like most, I'm not enamored with utilizing the velcro secured pockets with the "pocket holster". Maybe the pocket holster will come in handy if I have to use a fanny pack or something like that.
I have a Cabela's safari vest and it works well. Since Kansas is just now getting concealed carry, I've worn it to get family and friends used to seeing me in it.
So far, most of the comments have revolved around fishing, photography or hiking. Figure by the time the 5.11 vest comes in, folks will be quite used to me wearing some sort of over garmet like that.

A 5.11 vest tells everyone you might be a gun enthusiast.
A 5.11 vest with a NRA logo validates that.
Why advertise it?
Why not just put a sign on the back of your car that says: I own guns and ammo, follow me home and I'll show you which home to burglarize.
Always remember: 3 can keep a secret, if 2 are dead!
Get a holster vest, it is dressy and looks like a western vest.
Levi's or similar denim vest, cut "tall" does well also, and offers a bit more variety in your wardrobe. Dave Spaulding had an interesting observation, in this month's GWLE:
Reviewing the new SigTac leather jacket, he said his wife commented, "Its nice seeing you in something that doesn't look like you're going to mow down everything in sight......" Hmmmmmm.
I don't see a problem with the vests, unless you're trying to wear one in an environment in which it is obviously not a "normal" style. Of course, with exposure, others become acclimated to your individual style, but that is more of a neighborhood/workplace affair.

Happy Oscar night!
Last weekend, in my Market Forecast, I said,
"For the new week, the market starts the week off looking a bit tired. Last week, the major indices closed just below the resistance levels (SPX 1520; Nasdaq 3200). If it gets a pullback, 1510 to 1500 is the nearest support. It'll still need to clear 1520 to break out… We'll be watching the financials and the energies. If these two sectors start to roll over, I think the broader market is ready for a pullback. Conversely, if these two sectors can push higher, the broader market will likely break higher."
It was a volatile week as I discussed in this Saturday's weekly wrap-up. The forecast was once again on target. Although the market pushed to SPX 1530 on Tuesday, it couldn't hold. Things quickly dropped lower, back down to test the support at SPX 1500. In the end, SPX closed at 1515.6, below 1520, and still was not able to break out. The financial and energy sectors led the broader market in both directions, as it went through the week's "mood swings".
For the week, the Dow added +18.81 points; SPX slipped 4.19 points; Nasdaq dropped 30.21 points. Gold continued to fall lower, closing the week at around $1580/ounce. Oil slipped back to $93/barrel. At the time of this writing, Asian markets were slightly up. Japan's Nikkei stood out with a pop of +1.7%. Let's see where the US markets closed:
On Friday, SPX added +13.18 points to close at 1515.6. Its 10-day MA flattened. The MACD slid.
Nasdaq gained +30.33 points to close at 3161.82. It barely closed above its 30-day MA. Its MACD also went lower.
Both SPX and Nasdaq came quickly down to test their respective support levels during the week, while VIX popped above 16. On Friday, the market did get a bounce, with the Dow climbing back into the green for the week. For the new week…

Have your country own version of this Finnish traditional recipe?
That is very simple recipe, but i heard that these are known only in Finland and somewhere in Russia. In Finland we eat this traditional with egg butter (only egg and butter mixed)
In Finland Recipe is kind of this(or i made it with this recipe)
2dl Cold water
And about 300g rye flour
1. Just mix those ingredients and then knead it so u get elastic dough
2. Then roll it and u get about 3-5cm wide pole and cut it like 17-20 same size piece.
3. Spread some flour on the table and take one piece and roll it oval form. (It must be thin)
Then u just make Rice Porridge(traditional Christmas food in Finland)
Simmering should be done very slowly, using the lowest heat possible. This yields the best result: A velvety smooth porridge which is neither thick or watery. It should be just pourable in consistency, not stiff or lumpy. (I Copy this recipe for one website, but because u put that porridge on your dough, u want this be little bit stiffier than normal.
300ml Water
150ml Short grain Rice
700ml Whole Milk
Use a special porridge saucepan or a saucepan with an extra thick bottom to prevent the porridge from burning on the bottom.
Bring water to the boil in the saucepan. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until water is wholly absorbed in it.
Add the milk and bring the mixture to the boil again, stirring frequently.
Lower the heat to minimum, cover the pan with lid and simmer for about 40 to 60 minutes, or until the rice and milk have thickened into a soft-textured, velvety smooth porridge. Stir every now and then to prevent the porridge from burning on the bottom or forming a skin on the surface. Season with a little salt, sugar and a pat of butter.
5. Heat your oven 275`c degrees
6. Add that Porridge on your dough little bit and now i cant explain how u need to wrinkle this dough but u can look to that picture and hope u make good pies. (These are very famous in Finland)
(Sorry if u dont understand, that is first recipe which i write in English and sorry that these font change!)

Trade in the Dodge?
I have been thinking about trading in my 2004 Ram 2500 4x4 Hemi on a new/lightly used 4x4 diesel. The kbb trade in value was very poor. Do the dealers go by exactly what kbb says? Or are they making deals work in order to sell a vehicle. I know I will not get what I owe but I am not taking huge loss, I would just keep my truck if that is the case. Any salesmen on here help me out? I don't care if it is a Dodge Ford or Chevy.

Don't want to burst your bubble but here are a couple of things to think about.
(I have had 2 diesels, a 89 Ford F250 4x4 and now have a 97 Dodge 3500 4x4they have both had the same repair of wearable components)
Around here diesel fuel is 80-90 cents more a gallon than gas. Depending on the truck you might not get that much better mileage to offset the fuel price difference.
(my brother traded a 03 F250 crew cab 4x4 w/V10 for a 05 F350 6ltr diesel crew cab 4x4, he gets 1-2 mpg better empty or loaded with the 05 than the 03 and with the price of fuel it costs him more to operate the diesel and there isn't much difference in power)
It takes a little more $ to maintain a diesel, oil and filters and such.(my Dodge takes 3 1/2gal of oil for an oil change a $10-$15 oil filter and a $30-$40 fuel filter.)
They can generally be harder on front end wearables because they are so front heavy. It's like carrying a snowplow around full time (The front axle of both trucks weighed around 4000lbs empty. Both trucks were hard on ball joints tie rods and tires.)
And when the warranty runs out a diesel can be very expensive to repair. (A buddy at work had the injection pump go bad on his 98 Dodge 24v at 120000 miles it cost him about $3000 for repairs then about 6 months later the transfer pump died that cost around $750 to get repaired)
There is a need and a place for a diesel but in todays world to drive one if you don't need it is hard to justify. I have bought a car to drive daily and only run the truck when I need to. My Dodge is only a 15mpg (empty) hwy 10mpg (loaded) hwy truck and my car gets 35 hwy.
Just my thoughts.

It's just like the housing market is right now. New truck prices are very low right now, (which is why you're considering), but that also makes the value on your trade lower as well.
You guys/gals buying a house right now for the first time, it's a GREAT time to buy a home. Those of us that would need to sell a house to buy a house, it's not such a great time.

Well yeah until you bomb the diesel for cheap. Then it's lights out on gassers Of course then you gotta start saving for a new tranny unless you were smart enough to get a manual
But yes, there are many points to consider in the comparison.

I have a 99 24 valve cummins and it has 260,000 miles auto trany with an edge box and 4" exhaust on it. Empty I GET 23 mpg the worst I have ever got is 14mpg (that was with about 15,000 lbs on back) I love my dodge will tow a house and get good miles per gallon. I don't think the dealer will give you much for your truck but you never know. good luck.

You just have to play hardball with the salesman. If you go in there and browse the selection for a bit, make them wait, make them get ancy, and NEVER lead on that you would like a diesel but are worried about the trade in value, you have a chance to come out with a deal to your liking.
Set a number that you want to get out of your truck at the minimum, and then work for a grand or two extra. If they don't want to work with you, stop the conversation and say your not interested. They tend not to like that answer, as they make money on moving vehicles, including doing trades. They would much rather take a little hit on an older vehicle to sell a newer one(more expensive one), than to have no deal at all.
If I could own a diesel, I would do it in a heartbeat. Biodiesel is cheap and available, slightly less mpg than regular.

I bought my first home during this time as well.
As usual with the diesel argument, I will still argue that, at least with a Cummins, it should be cheaper than a comparable gas truck. Now the newest of the 1/2 tons (Chevy in particular) are starting to get some decent mileage. So if you pick the right truck, and trade the Hemi on it, you should be good to go. Not to mention the added smile on your face when you press the skinny pedal.
BTW, I was smart and got the manual.

I guess the best thing to do is go into the dealers. When I got my Ram I went to all three and took the best deal. I was a diehard Chevy guy until they could not beat the Dodge deal.I just have the new truck itch, it may pass, it may not. WHO KNOWS

Sorry to tell you, but several dealerships WILL NOT take trucks in for trade in. They cannot move them. If they do take them, they are not going to give you anything.
Your best bet is to sell privately.

Starting her week off right, Mandy Moore laughed and smiled upon leaving a house with a male friend in Los Feliz, California on Monday (December 3).
The "Tangled" star wore a tan coat, white top, patterned blue jeans, and studded sneakers as she made her way to her vehicle.
Out for a day of much deserved pampering, Mandy Moore visited a Los Angeles nail salon on Tuesday (November 13).
Looking sporty in jeans and a brown sweater, the "Hotel Noir" sweetheart emerged from the shop showing off her freshly painted red nails as she headed to her car.
It was a tense evening as the votes were counted last night (November 6) and when the dust settled President Barack Obama was elected to a second term in office.
And once the news spread, celebrities all over the world took to their Twitter accounts to share their reactions.
Fully immersing themselves in Tuesday's political festivities, the stars took to the polling booths and Twitter to sound off on the Presidential election.
Taking a much deserved break from working on her seventh album, Mandy Moore treated herself to a casual shopping excursion in Los Angeles, California earlier this week (November 4).
Dressed casually in black leggings and a hoodie, the "American Dreamz" rummaged the racks at Ron Herman while exiting with her purchases in-hand.
It was quite the day for the folks at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, as they held not one but two snazzy shindigs chock full of beautiful people.
Jennifer Aniston, January Jones and Fashion Fund Finalist Jennifer Meyer (who attended with husband Tobey Maguire) looked chummy as they chatted at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Event hosted by Lisa Love and Mark Holgate at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.
Taking care of her beauty needs, Mandy Moore stopped by Bungalow Salon in West Hollywood on Wednesday (October 17).
The "Tangled" star was dressed casually in a white t-shirt, black pants, and black tennis shoes as she headed back to her black Prius.
Young Tinseltown starlets ventured over to The Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood on Wednesday night (October 17) for the launch of Rachel Zoe's "Major Must Haves."
Anna Kendrick joined up with Mandy Moore and Jaime King to celebrate the celebrity designer's newest project from her Jockey line.

" Print Length: 244 pages / Publisher: Arima Publishing / Published: 10 Jan 2013 "
Dancing to the Pizzica is another book I bought as part of Amazon's Kindle Deal of the Day as part of my promise to myself to read more and be on the internet less.
Dancing to the Pizzica focuses on a rebellious middle-aged teacher named Adam, who moves to Southern Italy to teach English as a foreign language. He meets a young, beautiful woman named Rosaria there. Rosaria's cousin Diletta has mysteriously gone missing, and involvement of the local mafia is suspected. Adam gets caught up in Rosaria's world, and finds himself helping her in her quest to discover what happened to her cousin.
Richard Walmsley writes at the beginning of the novel that the main characters are all based on real people, and some events that happen, such as a blackout, actually occurred in real life. The place names and their descriptions are also all real. The Pizzica is actually a dance common to the Lecce area of Italy.
It is clear to see that the author is very much in love with Italy - he describes the olive trees, the local customs, the food and the people in a way that you can easily visualise. However, I did feel that on occasion he so got caught up in waxing lyrical about the country that the plot suffered somewhat. I did start to flag in the second third of the book when nothing really seemed to be happening aside from the author going into extraneous detail about places he himself had clearly visited. I am not knocking the author's passion whatsoever, but I did find myself getting bored at the lack of action at some points. I would have liked more of a focus on the 'detective' part of the story ie. finding out what exactly happened to Diletta. The conclusion of this storyline seemed to be tied up very quickly when personally I'd have liked this part to be explored more fully instead of having to turn through page after page of Adam's thoughts and feelings concering Rosaria.
Similarly some aspects were repetitive - for example the fact that Rosario drives a white car with a red stripe must be mentioned 5 or 6 times throughout the novel. I did feel like shouting 'I get it! I KNOW what she drives!' a couple of times.
I did find the fact that the main characters are based on real-life people to be a little odd at times, as it left me wondering what parts of the novel actually happened. I did wonder if Richard Walmsley actually based the character of Adam on himself, as he appears to be very much in love with whomever the character of Rosaria is based on - he does say at the start of the book that the person Rosaria is based on is whom the book is dedicated to. I think that while this is very sweet, it did make Rosaria a bit of a 'Mary-Sue'.
The novel is set in the Salento region, which, on a map, forms the 'heel' of the boot of Italy. This novel would actually encourage me to learn more about this region. I knew that Southern Italy is typically poorer and more rural, but that's where my knowledge ends. We tend in the UK to only really hear about Northern Italy, so Dancing to the Pizzica has definitely piqued my interest in knowing more about the other side of the country. The parts of the novel that focuses on the mafia in London was also interesting as I didn't know that there was mafia activity in the UK; and again I would be interested in reading up on this.
I think this would be a lovely book to take on holiday; however sitting here in the cold UK, it was somewhat comforting to read about the al fresco dining, quaint churches, and warm weather. I read it quite quickly due to its chatty, almost conversational narrative, and I feel that the outcome of the novel was very satisfactory.
The Kindle edition on Amazon currently costs £1.92.

Lawrence Gonzi and Joseph Muscat should agree that Malta's national day should be September 8. Victory Day will definitely unite the Maltese nation. We should incorporate Independence Day, Republic Day and Victory Day, celebrating them all on September 8. Having a national day on either September 21 or March 31 will not unite the Maltese nation.
