Hey CP3 when will ya update the rosters? I'm assuming Webber got hurt late in game 2, and missed all of game 3. Just curious if he's hurt for a long period of time or what. Just trying to set a Depth Chart, even though if Webber is out I might as well concede.
Philly is showing a lot of heart. People like Skip Bayless predicted they would let the division slip away and then they lose Alexander and Camby and yet they're one game away from going to the next round. Larry Brown can coach!

The New Terrorist — Uses U.S. Constitution As a Manual
Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
By Chuck Baldwin
March 17, 2009
Thanks to a concerned Missouri state policeman, a nationally syndicated radio talk show host was alerted last week to a secret Missouri state police report that categorized supporters of Congressman Ron Paul, Bob Barr, and myself as "'militia' influenced terrorists." The report, he said, "instructs the Missouri police to be on the lookout for supporters displaying bumper stickers and other paraphernalia associated with the Constitutional, Campaign for Liberty, and Libertarian parties."
Ignoring the threat of [suicide-bombing] terrorists, the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) report focuses on the so-called "militia movement" and "conflates it with supporters of Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, Bob Barr, the so-called patriot movement and other political activist organizations opposed to the North American Union and the New World Order."
This report is not original, of course. During the Clinton admin-istration, a Phoenix Federal Bureau of Investigation and Joint Terrorism Task Force explicitly designated "defenders" of the Constitution as "right-wing extremists." However, the MIAC report significantly expands on earlier documents and is the first known document to actually name names. According to the MIAC, opposition to world government, NAFTA, federalization of the states, and restrictive gun laws are a potential threat to the police. The MIAC report also refers to Aaron Russo's film, "America: Freedom to Fascism."
The [InfoWars.com] story exposing the MIAC report states, "The MIAC report is particularly pernicious because it indoctrinates Missouri law enforcement in the belief that people who oppose confiscatory taxation, the well-documented existence of a New World Order, and the obvious expansion of the federal government at the expense of the states as violent extremists who are gunning for the police. It specifically targets supporters of mainstream political candidates and encourages police officers to consider them dangerous terrorists."

Program helps mothers kick addictions, win back children WITH VIDEO
A 44-year-old mother left her 2-year-old son alone in a car with a crack pipe and an alcohol-spiked juice bottle earlier this month while she allegedly went off to buy crack cocaine.
The story, published in The Oakland Press, left some readers incredulous.
"This just cannot be true," Michelle01966 said in a comment at the end of the story on the digital newspaper www.theoaklandpress.com.
But to people who work in Oakland County courts, rehabilitation centers and Oakland Family Services, which all deal with mothers at various levels of addiction, this is not so shocking.
It doesn't mean the mother doesn't care about her children, but "the addiction becomes all powerful and changes behavior so that people do things that are indescribable," said Carol Beggs, clinical therapist for the Project Recovery Intensive Services for Mothers.
The PRISM program at Oakland Family Services, based in Pontiac, has worked with about 1,500 Oakland County women with addictions in the past 12 years.
Three mothers who are involved in the intensive counseling program agreed to share their stories with The Oakland Press. Their real names are being withheld to protect their anonymity.
Addicted mothers lose children
None of those interviewed were involved in such a life-threatening situation such as the 2-year-old left in the car. But at least two have addictions that officials determined impaired their ability to maintain focus on the welfare of their children.
Many who are going through or have gone through the program have had their children taken from their custody because of neglect or, in some cases, for abuse, and are in the program with hope of having their children returned after they complete the program. Continued...
WATCH VIDEO, "Intense Program helps mothers overcome addiction," on The Oakland Press You Tube Channel.
But some voluntarily enroll in the recovery program to return to a life without substance abuse and healthier lives for themselves and their families.
Beggs said even though addiction might explain why a person exhibits negligent or even bizarre behavior, it doesn't change the fact "that we are responsible for our behavior."
"Suddenly someone comes back to earth and they are accountable. They are left with the task of facing the consequences of their actions at the time of the addiction," Beggs said.
Mothers in recovery share stories
"Nothing good comes of drinking," said a 30-year-old mother from Waterford Township, one of the women in Beggs' counseling group.
"I wasn't thinking of the consequences. I was in an accident and got a DUIL," a legal charge of driving under the influence of liquor, said Mary.
"I didn't think about the kids' welfare. I was always looking for ways to have kids stay at grandma's. I needed to be free of the chaos of life.
"It was all about me and doing what I wanted. It was selfish. I wanted to medicate ... numb myself," said Mary, who reported no injuries in the accident.
But as a result, the court ordered her to participate in the PRISM program as part of her probation. Continued...
"I am happy I got this," said Mary, who is also going through a divorce. "I have gotten better and opened up here. I get something out of every day."
There are two levels of treatment in PRISM, Beggs said, lasting from four months to a year.
"Abstinence is great but that is just the tip of the iceberg," Beggs said, explaining the program deals with every aspect of a person's life. "It is a lifetime thing you have to be conscious of."
The first level is an outpatient program that includes one or two groups plus individual therapy, and runs for about four to six months.
The second level is intense and includes individual counseling along with two groups a day, including a substance abuse treatment, education about the cycle of addiction and relapse prevention.
Five other groups are also provided: positive parenting, relationships, women's issues, mood management and life skills.
"This program has made me look at myself," Mary said. "I've always had low self-esteem."
Thirty-nine-year-old Jessica of White Lake said she started using marijuana again about 11⁄2 years ago after being off of it for several years. She blames stress because she is the only one working to support her family.
"I'm not using now and I want to stay clean and sober and be me," said Jessica, who has been in the PRISM program for two weeks.
A third woman, Jenny, who is pregnant with her fifth child, said she was ordered to PRISM by the court as part of the program to win back the four children removed from her home. Continued...
Jenny, 29, of Pontiac said she began using marijuana when she was 16. Now she is addicted to cocaine, Xanax and marijuana.
"Someone called Child Protective Service," after she had been using cocaine for about four months, Jenny said. "It was messed up."
"I never thought they would take my kids," Jenny said. "I've been in rehab since May, and I am fighting to get my kids back. I do this program and, on my own, I have a nurse come in to do home parenting and drug tests, and I have a nurse and dietitian that comes out for the baby," she said.
The young mother has visitation with her children for only two hours a week at the Department of Human Services Office.
"It is sad, but at least I get to see them," Jenny said. "I talk to my oldest daughter on the phone every day. It hurts that I don't get to see them more often," she said.
All three mothers, who have been in the program for various lengths of time, say it is helping them.
The program also works to help women overcome their addiction to any substance — from alcohol to prescription drugs — so substances don't affect unborn children.
How the program helps addicted mothers
Beggs said she was aware of the case of the 2-year-old left in the back seat with a crack pipe and spiked juice bottle alone in a car on Orchard Lake Road and South Johnson Street in Pontiac.
Neither Beggs nor other Oakland Family Service officials would comment on this case, but it spurred Julie Brenner, spokeswoman for the agency, to issue a press release saying "it is crucial for the community to be aware that there is help for mothers who are addicted to substances."
"The first step (to recovery) is realizing the addiction is unmanageable," Beggs said.
For more than 13 years, Oakland Family Services has offered the only specialized gender-specific substance abuse treatment program of its kind in Oakland County to support women who struggle with addiction to drugs and alcohol.
The PRISM program also includes on-site child care, transportation to and from treatment, and case management to link women to needed community services.
"Women tend to stay in treatment twice as long in the PRISM program than in (coed) substance abuse treatment, which increases the likelihood that they will achieve sobriety," Brenner said.
About eight out of 10 women participating in PRISM have achieved sustained abstinence from drugs and alcohol in the program through the years.
About nine in 10 pregnant women participating in the PRISM program in the past five years who were in the program at least six weeks before giving birth had babies born substance free and at a healthy birth weight, Brenner said.
Also, after a woman goes through the intensive PRISM program, it is rare for a substantiated report of abuse or neglect to go to Child Protective Services, Brenner said.

PSU's Erickson thinks 'this is not a Penn State scandal.' Seriously.
PSU's Erickson thinks 'this is not a Penn State scandal.' Seriously.
Attytood's coverage of the Penn State alumni "town hall" in King of Prussia:
There was no unruly throng flowing through the wide parking lots of King of Prussia last night, just a orderly single-file line of well-dressed Penn State alums filing into a carpeted hotel meeting room with a stage decked out in soothing flowers and tall potted plants. Despite an air of hostility toward a news media that one questioner accused of "McCarthyism," there was never a thought of flipping over any of the news vans lined up on the outskirts of the Radisson Valley Forge.
Yet in kinder and gentler way, the more than 650 Penn State alumni who packed a so-called "town hall" meeting with already embattled new president Rodney Erickson were animated by the same basic instincts that caused some students to riot in the streets of State College two months earlier: Anger focused much more on the firing of football legend Joe Paterno than on the child-sex-abuse scandal and cover-up that provoked it, and shock and despair over the implosion of a campus football culture with quasi-religious overtones.
And so the first two questions tossed at Erickson from the floor of largely disaffected Penn State alums – and many of those that followed – dwelled on how the university could ever make things right with Paterno and why the university board of trustees was so quick to fire the winningest coach in major college history.
"He (Paterno) is the most single important Penn Stater in the history of the university," declared the first questioner, who said he was a 1973 graduate and the son of a faculty member, causing the room to burst out in applause.
"Our overall thing is the lack of due process for Joe Paterno – he was a scapegoat," said Steve Tross, a 1974 Penn State grad who lives in Paoli and works in marketing, one of last night's early arrivals. "Everybody else is getting due process except Joe…I think there was a rush to judgment."
if last night's town hall – the second in a series of three confabs that started in Pittsburgh on Wednesday and ends tonight in New York – showed anything, it was how difficult it will be for Penn State to come to terms with November's indictment of Paterno's former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky on charges of molesting at least 10 boys going as far back as 1994 and the deepening questions over the university's handling of the matter.
No one seemed to embody the conflict – and a stunningly persistent sense of denial – than Erickson, the genteel white haired former provost at center stage. Erickson, signed on to guide Penn State through 2014, repeatedly said his goal was "the guiding principle of openness and communication" – but those communications last night ignored the overwhelming failures of Penn State's leaders in the Sandusky case.
"It grieves me very much when I hear people say that this is the Penn State scandal," Erickson told one questioner last night. "This is the Sandusky scandal. This is not Penn State."
Never once did Erickson, or anyone else, even mention that two former top Penn State officials – then-vice president Gary Schultz and athletic director Tim Curley – face criminal charges for allegedly lying about their handling of Sandusky. And for all the talk last night about Paterno, concerns that the football coach should have done more when learning in 2002 about a locker room allegation against Sandusky were never mentioned.
Indeed, for Erickson and Penn State, the new and belated drive for transparency still feels like what Richard Nixon's Watergate-era White House famously called a "modified limited hangout" – and that may be giving this tour too much credit. Just this week, Erickson revealed that trustees and top officials were briefed on the Sandusky probe months before the indictment, raising new questions about what Penn State's leaders knew and when did they know it. Many alumni asked, and rightfully so, why top trustees are not at these town halls, or why the minutes of the Nov. 9 board meeting at which Paterno and then-president Graham Spanier were ousted have not been made public. Others, including the Penn State faculty. still seek a real independent probe conducted by outsiders.
They shouldn't hold their breath. Not when the No. 1 man in Happy Valley is still clinging to the fantasy that this is only "a Jerry Sandusky scandal."

Also, while due process is a great concept, its more applicable in a court of law. Not an instituiton's decision to remove a coach. RG- avmjr

- jtm224
- "assertions that what happened took place because hundreds or thousands of people at one particular institution are, of course, morally inferior to ourselves, will not help one iota" . . . TPS, I'm not sure anyone is accusing "thousands of people" of moral inferiority. The PSU campus represents a cross section of society, no worse but no better either. Institutional accountability is a function of society, so maybe we should ask how we failed PSU, not how PSU failed us.
- boroughboy
- michael_b
- Murrayman
I'd agree to an extent. However, I disagree that the term university is interchangeable with Paterno, Curley, and Schultz. While high ranking representatives of the University, they don't compose the entire makeup of the organization.
RG- "What he said is KNOWING WHAT I KNOW NOW i wish I had done more. That is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT statement. Know your facts idiot." . . . Know your facts? What he said was, "With the benefit of hindsight, I wish I had done more." In other words, he would have acted differently if given a second chance, not if he knew any more than he did at the time. He's testified to what he was told by the grad assistant, so what else did he need to know?
- Ralo_Larson
That's some heavy duty parsing you're doing there. You are technically correct, but isn't it possible that what he meant was "If I had known then what I know now, I would have done more at the time?"
===))) "He's testified to what he was told by the grad assistant, so what else did he need to know? " {{{===
Perhaps he now knows that he deluded himself at the time.
For me, the point is how can we hold on to the fact that sometimes, as humans, we avoid seeing what we don't want to see, without somehow justifying a failure to act in a situation that calls for action. My answer is that finger-pointing and smug certainty of moral superiority is not likely to prove beneficial. Talking point sleuth- Joe152

HEAT IN A CLICK - is an instant, portable and reusable heating pad. It is ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. They are innovative, multi purpose and simple to use.
At the click of a button, the HEAT IN A CLICK pad will reach 54ºC (130º F). Our pads are safe and non toxic due to the innovative use of the salt based solution, Sodium Acetate. On flexing the small metal disc inside the pad a molecular reaction is started causing the solution to crystallize. Starting this chain reaction causes the entire solution to solidify. During the reaction (from liquid to crystal form) energy is released in the form of heat. Gradually the heat pad will start to cool down, returning to its original, solid state. The time this takes is dependable on the size and model of the heat pad, however the process can be initiated and the pad re-used again and again.
Many divers and other watersports enthusiasts around the world are feeling the benefits of using HEAT IN A CLICK.
Heat In A Click is not recommended for underwater use.

New Smyrna Beach resident Shane Porter recently captured this unique shot, showing four stingrays just off the Atlantic shoreline in New Smyrna Beach. In the distance is the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse. Porter, a pyschologist and president of the Counseling Center of New Smyrna Beach, writes a blog for NSBNEWS.net.
NEW SMYRNA BEACH – Fashion comes in all styles and sizes. From the elegant and the sophisticated, to the practical, whimsical, and yes, even the silliest. But no matter what was worn, the models wowed the audience during the Girls Night Out fashion show that is a part of Christmas on Canal.

Addicitve Drums, buy one ADpak, get one FREE
Purchase any ADpak(s) - buy 1 get 1 free, buy 2 get 2 free and so on! Once registered on the XLN Audio website, you will be prompted to choose your free pak(s) (Retro excluded)
Reel Machines is an electro injection for Addictive Drums featuring five full electronic kits from the eighties. All samples were recorded on analog tape using mint condition drum machines and modules.
Reel Machines features a plate reverb and real room ambience. Allowing you to go from raw electronic sounds to larger than life monster machines of the past.
Included is a collection of presets in electronic styles ranging from eighties pop to house, dubstep, drum & bass and techno. All included presets come with sets of matching beats for quick and easy groove construction.
The e-drum kit that started it all. Our massive setup of analog modules were sampled with painstaking detail. Backed up by a Simmons Digital ClapTrap. The original SDS-V came with five modules and two expansion slots for up to seven modules. Our kit uses close to 40 modules to create all the varied stroke types.
Simmons drums have been used by artists like Duran Duran, Rush, Nine Inch Nails, Van Halen, Spandau Ballet, Tool, Prince, Depeche Mode, Queen and Genesis.
LinnDrum is the successor to the first sampled based drum machine, the LM-1. Featuring all fifteen original sounds with a large number of new custom tweaked stroke types. The Linndrum was the cutting edge of technology at the time of its release. Featuring 35 kilohertz samples, individual outputs and trigger inputs.
The LinnDrum can be heard on albums from artists like Peter Gabriel, Sting, Prince, Madonna, Human League and Thompson Twins.
Reel Machines also comes with three full additional kits. The 808, 909 and DMX with samples inspired by classic rhythm machines from the eightes.
The 808 has a deep analog kick with a snappy snare, great for a wide range of electronic styles. The 909 is a hybrid analog and sampled machine with a punchy kick and snare, making it the excellent partner for dance music. Last but not least the DMX with short and dry samples is the perfect kit for old school hiphop and rap.
Reel Machines includes 60 unique kitpieces plus an additional five sets of kick and snare combos for use in the Xtras slot. The kitpieces have the same amount of stroke types as the acoustic drums in Addictive Drums. Making Reel Machines one of the the most expressive and varied collection of electronic sounds you've heard.
The kick and snare samples in Reel Machines were recorded on a two channel half inch Ampex tape machine with heavy saturation. By using the kick and snare microphone settings you can mix between the clean and the saturated signal.
Kick drums: Beater is the clean signal while front is heavily saturated on all drum machines. The Simmons SDS-V uses virtual mic positioning instead.
Snare drums: Top is the clean signal while bottom is heavily saturated on the LinnDrum and DMX. Simmons SDS-V, 808 and 909 uses virtual mic positioning instead.
All kits in Reel Machines have an additional Xtras kitpiece with a kick and snare combo. This can be used for extra variation or to layer sounds and get precisely the snare or kick you're after. Check the keymap in Addictive Drums for the Xtra A and Xtra B stroke types.
A version of XLN Audio Addictive Drums is required!

When it comes to tackling a company project in an efficient manner, communication is key. In "Strategic Communications: From Self-Delusion to Listening Carefully," Michael Krigsman discusses the follies in conventional wisdom about effective communication. Krigsman notes that many companies fail to open two-way communication, rather they use PR and communications departments as a megaphone to broadcast one-way directives. The scale and risk of the communication challenge is shown:
A Project Management Institute (PMI) study finds that organizations risk '$135 million for every billion dollars' they spend on projects. Of this large sum, related research from PMI concludes that 'ineffective communications' drives 56 percent ($75 million) of these at-risk dollars. Based on these numbers and empirical experience, it is clear that communication plays a significant role in the success or failure of projects.
The author says that communication and project success relies on cultivating collaboration and knowledge sharing. This means using technology to provide users access to information to create a healthy flow of content sharing. If you have found communication in the vast amounts of data and information flowing through the enterprise a challenge to project success, the article may be a good read. Many organizations are overcoming these challenges with comprehensive content intelligence platforms, like Smartlogic. The Semaphore platform is being used in a variety of industries and sectors, such as media and publishing, to provide content creators broad access to information and to deliver focused information to users.

DT25 1x12 Combo - Amp Cover
Like (0)
Is there any known amp cover that could fit a DT25 1x12 combo? I guess I could find one with the dimension but I wonder if someone has already done it.
The company I've referred DT25 users to is: http://tukicovers.com/
There may be other users who've found better options, but I've been satisfied with their workmanship in the past, so I confidently recommend Tuki to friends and other musicians.
Thank you, I will keep an eye open there but unfortunatly, there is no specific DT25 cover. I will contact them to ask if they plan to make one. Anybody have found one that is available? Or that one made for another amp but who fit the DT25?
Hi all
I dont get it! Line 6 go on about how your amp shouldnt be naked, and here they are selling their flagship amps with no covers. Sorry, I'll rephrase that, they do do one I believe for the DT Amp Head.
I think Line 6 have dropped off here, and forgot to schedule manufacture of covers. I have an old Vetta II and that has a Line 6 black canvas cloth cover. Personally, I think they are the best type of cover, and...it has their logo on it, thereby ensuring a bit of brand exposure even when its covered.
I hope Line 6 come to their senses and produce a DT25112 combo cover and a ever so slighly larger DT25 112 ext cab. I hope I can ge these before the equipment starts to look a bit road weary. Come on Line 6 Get your finger out!
Richard Biggle
When I bought mine, the store had a Spider amp cover that fit really very well. Right height and depth and just an inch or two wider than perfect but it worked for me. It was nice to have the Line6 logo I guess. Well made, but a tuki would be more substantial with foam lining.
I got mine from D2F covers.
They sell on eBay or direct from their website.
They will even custom size for any amps they don't have listed.
Nice and rugged cover, been using mine for 9 months gigging and it is holding up great!
I like D2F covers as well and the owner Tom Palmer is very good with communication. I got my SIV and SV212 done with D2F and then tried BS Covers for my DT25 .... Although BS Covers were cheaper, I wish I had stayed with D2F.
Stay in the mix and in the know.

Uncertainty clouds future of nuke plant
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The mounting bill tied to the shuttered San Onofre nuclear power plant in California jumped to more than $400 million through December, as the company that runs it contends with costly repairs and a host of questions about its future, regulatory filings and officials said Tuesday.
The seaside plant between Los Angeles and San Diego was sidelined in January 2012 after a tiny radiation leak led to the discovery of unusual damage to hundreds of tubes that carry radioactive water inside its steam generators.
Edison International, the parent of operator Southern California Edison, said replacement power cost reached $300 million through Dec. 31, while repairs and inspections hit $102 million.

By: Katie Gibas
Less than half of people between the ages of 18 and 24 voted in the last presidential election. And that was an uptick from previous years. Our Katie Gibas tells us why younger people aren't heading to the polls.
UNITED STATES -- One of the most exciting things about turning 18 is that you are now an adult. And that means you can vote. But according to the U.S. Census Bureau, less than half of 18 to 24 year olds exercised that right in the 2008 presidential election. Political scientists say that trend isn't anything new.
"It's an effect that kind of goes through each generation as they age," said Grant Reeher, a Political Science Professor at Syracuse University's Maxwell School.
In September, there were massive efforts on high school and college campuses across the country to register students to vote. At Syracuse University, student volunteers registered about 200 new voters. Despite the push, people under the age of 30 are still less likely to vote. Political scientists say young adults are less likely to be rooted in a specific community, own property and have children, all of which are driving forces that bring people to the polls.
"Those are things that really tend to focus your attention on local governmental issues because you're paying property taxes, because you have concerns about the value of your home, because you have concerns about the schools and quality of education, all things that connect you to the political system. And they're all things that make you more interested and more invested in that political system," said Reeher.
Even though fewer young people are voting, political scientists say they don't think it will lead to a major decline in voter turnout.
"If we saw younger adults' participation rates and voting rates were plummeting relative to those other groups and relative to their own past performance, then I think we would be in a situation where we start talking about being very worried for the future," said Reeher.
Stats show some encouraging news. The people who track voter turnout say the one growth area in politics is among the young, who have increased turnout in each presidential cycle since the year 2000.

What's in Store: Shopping Sandro's New NYC Boutique
It's no secret that Lucky editors are complete suckers for chic French label Sandro, with its Parisian-pretty basics, wear-everywhere boots and ubiquitous Peter Pan collars.
November was a banner month for the brand, as they introduced e-commerce and unveiled a boutique in the heart of NYC's West Village. And when Sandro invited me into the sleek new space to peep the décor and style some outfits, I jumped at the opportunity. Take a tour of the impeccably-edited store—and see the ensembles I put together—in the slideshow below.

The Melting chair by Philipp Aduatz is carefully crafted to appear as a solid chair melting away or as a solidification of a liquid melt. To create this realistic illusion, Philipp studied the solidification of fluids as well as the melting of solids with 3D animation software. Available in a limited edition of 12, it was created using fibreglass reinforced polymer, a light and strong composite material that is very durable, and covered with a special mirror coating for a metallic appearance. A special clear lacquer is also used to protect the mirror coating from aging, making the surface of the Melting chair scratch resistant.

There are absolutely no security issues with future Zen as it consists mostly of a stylesheet and a small collection of images. The only php is a set of standard define statements that all templates have.Originally Posted by SilverKop
Furthermore this was the first template to be made available specifically to take full advantage of the Zen Cart 1.3 templating system, so there are no compatibility issues either. Any future changes that rendered this template invalid, would most likely have the same effect on all the templates currently available.
Your host certainly could install it for you (if they were willing), but it is very straightforward to do and I would actually recommend that you do it yourself as you will learn a little about Zen Cart's file structures. There is always plenty of support should you get stuck or run into any problems.

Note: Items from this manufacturer normally ship within 3 days. However from time to time backorders occur; if this happens we will let you know as promptly as possible.
Kestrel Pocket Weather Meters and Horus Vision have partnered to provide a powerful shooting tool that combines the critical environmental data and targeting software solutions required for precision shooting -- all in one four-ounce pocket-sized unit. Previously, shooters would need to obtain environmental data from a Kestrel meter and then input that data into a PDA loaded with Horus ATrag ballistics software. Now, the Kestrel Ballistics Weather Tracker with Horus ATrag Software contains all of the necessary data and solutions in one device to minimize user workload and distraction. Plus, the Kestrel meter is IP67 waterproof and MIL-STD-810F rugged, allowing users to avoid the expense and weight of a ruggedized PDA.
The new unit allows users to load and customize multiple guns and rounds from the extensive proprietary Horus database. Simple, intuitive screens allow the user to create up to six targets customized for location, distance, direction, declination and winds. The Kestrel meter's highly accurate measuring and averaging of wind and digital compass for target bearing and wind direction assists in defining the target winds. Once these parameters are set, the Kestrel meter takes over - tracking the current met data and automatically updating the firing solution using Horus ATrag advanced proprietary algorithms and taking coriolis and spin drift into account. No additional user input is required.
Military personnel and pilots flying in darkness are often concerned with preserving their night vision. Due to overwhelming demand from our military customers, the Kestrel NV line was added in 2005.
The NV model has the same features as its more colorful counterparts, but is olive drab with a night-vision preserving backlight which helps users to sustain natural night vision. The NV's backlight incorporates an optical filter to reduce overall brightness and minimize blue and green spectrum light to preserve night vision. Additionally, NV backlights are also much dimmer than a standard backlight, making it more difficult to detect with the naked eye in night operations. This backlight appears soft greyish pink, not red, and is still in the visible spectrum, so is not compatible with night-vision equipment.
It takes 30 to 45 minutes for the average eye to adapt to darkness and maximize night vision. Even a short burst of white, yellow, green or blue light モbleaches outヤ the rod cell photoreceptors in the eye and causes night blindness until the entire adaptation process can take place again. Light in the red spectrum does not cause this モbleaching outヤ, preventing night blindness and night vision fatigue. - Reviews

I personally like Honchkrow better. Mandibuzz requires A LOT of work to EV train with atk/sp.atk, and doesn't have moves that appeal to me (but that's just me). But you should see for yourself, like what Megajed said, figure out what works for you.
Honestly, Mandibuzz is more defense-orientated, and Honchkrow is more attacking orientated.
Mandibuzz @ Lum Berry (This Vulture hates getting Status'd) Overcoat Ability (for damaging weather) Big Pecks Ability (helpful in preventing crit. hits) Careful Nature invest EVs into Defenses Moveset: -Knock Off -Roost -Toxic -Brave Bird
Honchkrow @ Life Orb Naughty Nature
(Mixedkrow) Ability: Insomnia Moves: -Sucker Punch -Heat Wave - Brave Bird -SuperPower
Adamant Nature @ Muscle Band
(MoxieBoss) Ability: Moxie Moves: -Sucker Punch -Brave Bird -Roost -Sub/Protect
Honchkrow Would also be a Prime candidate for Choice Scarf; Rack up some serious attack stats with each Brave Bird KO! Use ability Insomnia

This classic architectural survey of West Kent has been used by students and travellers for more than forty years. Now fully revised and expanded to include the great variety of buildings added to the landscape during that time, this indispensable guide offers fresh perspectives on major landmarks such as Igtham Mote, Sissinghurst, and Hever Castle. Kent is home to an extraordinary amount of first-rate architecture, from the timber-framed houses of the Weald and the spacious cathedral of Rochester to the planned, modernist suburb of New Ash Green and the docks of Dungeness.
John Newman first became involved in The Buildings of England as Nikolaus Pevsner's driver, in Berkshire and Hampshire, and as the co-author of Dorset. Besides the Kentish volumes, he has contributed Glamorgan and Gwent/Monmouthshire to the Buildings of Wales series, and is author of the revised Shropshire volume (2006).

EU Flag? ...Not here...Second Front Page of the Day
Saturday 24th September 2005
Fly the European flag? EU can't do that...
by Dan King
A COUNCIL has been forced to take down a flag outside its headquarters - after learning that it was illegal.
And now councillors in Wear Valley face the embarrassment of meeting to decide whether they can grant permission for the European Union flag to be returned.
The council has had the flag on display for several years at its Crook Civic Centre base in County Durham, but yesterday replaced it with a St George's cross after the error was flagged up.
Local crusader Jim Tague made a request under the Freedom of Information Act as to whether the council had the correct permission.
Government rules state that, although national flags can be displayed, flags for political projects can not, due to laws on spending taxpayers' money to promote one side of a debate above another.
Mr Tague said: "My question was, prove to me that the EU is a nation state, or produce the planning documents. They could do neither.
"They will have to very careful about putting it back up.
"I don't think you'll find one Englishman in this country who wants the EU flag to be flown ahead of our own."
Anti-European campaigner Neil Herron, from Sunderland, said it was a victory for campaigners opposed to European constitution and said it would set a precedent.
He said: "It isn't a flag of a nation state - it is the flag of a political project. I object to the flying of an advertisement for an unaccountable, corrupt body."
A spokesman for Wear Valley District Council said: "We are looking to get it put back up again - with the appropriate permission."

These people just don't get it, do they?
Idiots... - 6:01 am
- wonkotsane said...
Let me just get this right. It's illegal but they are looking to get appropriate permission to put it back up? What are they going to do? Apply for a Private Act of Parliament? Petition the government to repeal the law that makes it illegal?
- 9:59 am
The stasi use "appropriate and inappropriate" nowadays, instead of legal and illegal.It helps them circumvent the law.
- 1:12 pm
- Kevin said...
Why not let the people decide weather they want the Cross of Saint George flown or the EUssr rag.
Give the people a referendum on which flag they want flown. - 1:32 pm
Wear Valley - an EU free zone!
- 2:02 pm
Wear Valley District Council has literature in the library that states something like - "for all issues that require planning consent, full consultation with the public will be carried out".
Ask the people, they are damned, don't ask the people, they are damned.
Jim Tague - 2:06 pm
Hi Neil, does this Law also cover things like the EU symbol on Council letters I wonder?
watcher - 2:27 pm
Every flag should have a name (the Union Jack, Stars & Stripes, Red Ensign, etc.) How about the Starsole for the EU ringpiece of stars?
- 12:22 pm
Hello -
I went through Trafalgar Square this morning and was surprised to see a gigantic Malaysian flag (and a smaller Ugandan one) flying above buildings where those countries have offices to promote tourism/trade. I was very surprised that they were allowed to do this - personally I found it quite offensive that there was a massive malaysian flag flying over Trafalgar Square. Does anyone know if this is illegal/whether it should be removed? Thanks. - 1:49 pm
What about the starsole on the number plates then.
nobby - 4:04 pm
It all comes back to dealing with the obstinate children who run the EU. What part of "NO" do they not understand?
- 4:11 pm
There has always been a Them and Us. They do what they like but we have to pay for all types of "permissions/plannings"which take forever to be looked at. Of course it's illegal. It IS merely the flag of a policitical union, [the brainchild of all those overpaid bureaucrats in Brussels] NOT of a country. Here we go again.
These people and those in Brussels and Luxembourg, cannot take "No" for an answer about anything. Heaven knows what has been going on behind our backs since the two "No" results. - 4:21 pm
Whereas Malaysia and Uganda are countries, and therefore the flags on their offices around Trafalgar Square fall in the exempt category of "The national flag of any country" - Class I in Schedule 2 of the regulations, Statutory Instrument 1992 No 666, available on the website of what was formerly Her Majesty's Stationery Office, and is now the Office of Public Sector Information.
(Provided: 1.Each flag is to be displayed on a single vertical flagstaff 2. Neither the flag nor the flagstaff may display any advertisement or subject matter additional to the design of the flag.) - 4:47 pm
So! What's this illegal/political piece of garbage doing on our driving licences, I ask with just a hint of sarcasm?!
- 5:31 pm
Instead of writing many more lines of text about how wrong it is to fly this rag why not form teams of activists that go around physically removing them? If this one rag is illegal (as we have always known) then they must all be illegal, so let get rid!

Some 3 or 4 years ago I objected to the Lib-Dem Islington Council illegally flying the EU emblem (which they called flag) from the town hall flagstaff. They were obliged to pull it down. Then they went on to give themselves planning permission to fly it.
What took you so long?
Roy Roebuck - 7:53 pm
I agree that the the starsole must also be illegal on car number plates and I for one will have my number plates changed rather than display them. Well done Neil and Jim!!!
- 9:25 pm
- Bob Grundy said...
Ref Antitas comment about the number plates, there is no legal obligation to have the ring of stars upon it.
However would it not be better to leave them on but put a bright red line through it to state your objection to the EU.............
Bob Grundy - 9:33 pm
- Arden Forester said...
There seems to be an arrogance by local councillors up and down the country that they are above certain laws and customs. I blame the town clerks and borough solicitors for giving duff advice in the first place!
- 12:12 am
Dear Roy Roebuck,
If Islington Town Hall has just the one flagpole (as you say "the town hall flagstaff"), then they should NEVER fly the EU flag on it.
Flags are flown on government buildings by command of The Queen. Her rules are given in "The National Flag" section of Whitaker's Almanack, page 23 in this year's edition.
Also see this presentation to the 2002 AGM of the National Association of Civic Officers on "Flag Protocol in the United Kingdom":
There is just one day when the Queen has commanded that the EU flag should be flown on government buildings, and that's May 9th, "Europe Day". However even on that day:
"The Union flag should fly alongside the European flag. On government buildings that have only one flagpole, the Union flag should take precedence."
I expect the building manager will receive these instructions from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport each year - that was certainly the case here - so he should follow them, whatever the councillors say and whether or not they've given themselves planning permission.
Obviously it helps if the local press can be involved to publicise the fact that they're deliberately breaking the official rules to pursue their own political agenda.
Denis Cooper - 10:52 am
Well done! my local council office has been doing it as well and it never occured to me to object (although i secretly seethed) now i will take it up with them. I see Mr destaigne is now calling on France to vote again we must ris eto the challenge.
Steve lewis South Kirkby - 1:33 pm
- proudbrit said...
Well done! My local council have been doing it for years and i have silently seethed. Now i will take it up with them
- 1:34 pm
As pointed out yesterday, Islington (London) Council were compelled to remove the EU emblem (which they called a flag) from the town hall flagstaff after I complained that they had not given themselves planning permission. The Lib-Dem council then gave themselves planning permission, and the EU emblem was then rehoisted by a Lib-Dem MEP.
This was some 3 years ago. What kept the North East so long before taking action?
Roy Roebuck - 4:06 am
- Neil Herron said...
We were busy with other things like defeating the Government's regionalisation agenda, running the campaign to force a referendum on the European Constitution, setting up and running the national No campaign against the constitution,exposing the unelected North East Assembly and assisting others to do the same across the country, coninuing to prevent further prosecutions under the Metrication directive to name a few.
We found a five minute window and decided to sort Wear Valley's flag out. We are now sharing that information with others in order for them to follow.
What has taken YOU so long to start wishing to share your success with others?
Why didn't you begin a nationwide initiative to get the symbol removed from all council buildings?
Why didn't you challenge your council on the Section 19 point and prevent them?
We are not in this for the medals...just to win.
Why don't your energies more positively and take advantage of the excellent advice that others have posted and revisit your council's little problem and get them to take their flag down again? - 5:36 am
From what i have just read re national flags and enblems is it also illegal to have all those Welsh dragons and St Andrews crosses etc displayed on the back of cars driven in England ???
Just asking ! - 9:48 am
Apparently it is legal to have a sticker on the body of the car, but it is NOT legal to have it on the number plate instead of the EU emblem, and somebody was fined £30 this June for that.
See this, including a comment by "wonkotsane" who has posted here:
As I understand, having the EU emblem on the number plate is still voluntary, but if you do have it you can't legally cover it up.
See 2001 Commons debate starting here:
about a motion to revoke the Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001 (S.I., 2001, No. 561), which ended up with the government minister saying:
"Mr. Hill: I remind the hon. Gentleman that it is entirely up to the individual vehicle keeper whether he or she has the symbol on the number plate. The reason for the use of the EU symbol is to permit ease of circulation in the European Community .... The EU symbol does serve a particular purpose and is to be permitted on a voluntary basis. There is no good reason to allow other variations.
I appreciate that strong feelings over national identity have been expressed here tonight. However, I hope that the House now fully understands the intentions of the new regulations and that the Government, by making the display of the Euro flag optional, have preserved that freedom of choice which is the birthright of every self-respecting Briton." - 11:37 am
From that, can we expect Wear Valley District Council to offer a choice to the public of this part of Co. Durham?
Jim Tague - 12:04 pm
Jim, I see that Harry Blackwood has mentioned your success in today's Mail on Sunday. That should bring this to more folks' attention.
Well done, again. - 11:11 am

Very accomodating
I love the new way I can "hide" my shoes under my beds. They were always sticking out in my closet and I kept running all over them.
This way, I can look through the bag before choosing my shoes.
Very neat way to lessen space in your bedroom and closets.

Best ever under the bed shoe organizer
I love this product!! I have such a small closet in my home (old home renovated) that I didn't have room for my shoes (many shoes) and kept stepping all over them. I didn't have a place to hang on the doors, so this under the bed organizer worked great for me.
You can view the shoes through the top to decide which ones you want to choose.
I like it so well, I have ordered another for my husband.
Thanks, Milli Vanilli

For shoes galore, real handy
I own a great deal of shoes and I was done in keeping some in there dingy boxes, so when I saw this easy storage for shoes, I loved the idea. Great product, very sturdy.
January 18, 2013
Met Expectation
I first ordered two and later ordered two more since I gave two to my mother. The storage bag does not look durable but the plastic cover is very thick. It also air holes to eliminate odor from the shoes. I like them!
