Would it be too much to ask.....?

My plan is to completely hive off the classifieds section from the rest of the forum, so it doesn't appear in latest posts etc.
Awwwwww, don't do that, i'll never spot owt, which may be no big thing for me but i very often see things wanted or for sale by others and point them in the direction, i've done this several times in the past few weeks generating sales for others.

I think the system works quite well as it is. Please don't add more steps for anybody visiting the site and wanting to have a quick look around.
I'm truly not interested in the FS and WTD, but it doesn't bother me that they come up in latest posts. It all adds to the context... (red tent for sale... fancy phone wanted...). Many new folks probably get interested by either the classifieds and/or reviews, so if it wasn't included in latest posts, perhaps wouldn't get drawn in to all the other stuff getting discussed.
Lucky Jim wrote (see)
Would it be possible to have some kind of switch or filter, so those who wanted classifieds included in latest posts could have, and those that didn't want them could opt not to?
As I use the Forum in 'topic' format rather than 'latest posts', I'm not bothered
I could do that, yes, that is completely possible if people would like that. My plan is to completely hive off the classifieds section from the rest of the forum, so it doesn't appear in latest posts etc. Are people generally in favour of splitting the classifieds? I can't do it retrospectively, but I can create a new 'wanted' folder and relabel the existing one as a 'FS' area? So no, it's not 'too much to ask', it's just that no-one's asked before. Thoughts?
Maybe this could be translated into Chinese for our more enthusiastic posters...

Cumaru, commonly called Brazilian Chestnut, is a tough and dense wood imported from Brazil that has an irregular, somewhat interlocked grain and wavy, course texture. Because of its density, it is very resistant to termites and decay. Cumaru's heartwood is a medium brown with distinctive tan shades that compliment one another in with tonal warmth to create a relaxing feeling that's great to come home to.
Clear grade material is color matched in most species of wood. This is the highest grade available in flooring items. No open defects are allowed and material is 100% heartwood. No breaks, no splits, no cracks. In tropical flooring, tight knots and burls are typically downgraded from Clear to Select grade.

In the summer of 1905 André Derain, then twenty-five, left Paris for a two-month sojourn with his friend Henri Matisse. They settled in the small fishing town of Collioure, on the southwest coast of France near the Spanish border. The painters had first met in Eugène Carrière's Paris studio in 1899, and it was with Matisse's help that Derain had received his parents' permission to pursue a career in art. During the summer in Collioure the two men discussed art theory and painted canvases filled with bright light, high color, and exuberant, often broken brushwork. Along with Maurice de Vlaminck, they were the major proponents of a short-lived movement known as Fauvism. (The term "Fauves"—"Wild Beasts"—was attached to these artists when their innovative work shocked and offended the sensibilities of viewers at the 1905 Salon d'Automne exhibition in Paris.)
Although Matisse and Derain worked closely in Collioure and painted similar scenes, their styles remained distinct. A painting like "Fishing Boats, Collioure" vividly illustrates Derain's characteristic use of dramatic perspective and diagonal recession into space. We take in the entire panorama from a high vantage point: busy figures on the shore, rocking boats and sails, and the majestic blue and green mountains anchored in the background and capped by billowy pink clouds. The curved shoreline and rhythmic arrangement of overlapping sails lead our eye into the picture. Two seated men, surrogates for the viewer, observe the energetic scene. Derain's palette is Fauvist: vibrant and unnatural. One senses, however, his growing dissatisfaction with this style of painting. The discordant mixture of divisionist brushwork and flat painting and the insistence on heavily outlined images to enhance volumetric form seem contrived and angry. Indeed, Derain was soon to purge himself of Fauvism's impetuosity and go on to produce austere, monochromatic, Cubist-inspired works, several of which are in the Museum's collection.

Background of c-Myc Epitope Tag (EQKLISEEDL) antibody
Epitope tags are short peptide sequences that are easily recognized by tag-specific antibodies. Due to their small size, epitope tags do not affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties. Most often sequences encoding the epitope tag are included with target DNA at the time of cloning to produce fusion proteins containing the epitope tag sequence. This allows anti-epitope tag antibodies to serve as universal detection reagents for any tag containing protein produced by recombinant means. This means that anti-epitope tag antibodies are a useful alternative to generating specific antibodies to identify, immunoprecipitate or immunoaffinity purify a recombinant protein. The anti-epitope tag antibody is usually functional in a variety of antibody-dependent experimental procedures. Expression vectors producing epitope tag fusion proteins are available for a variety of host expression systems including bacteria, yeast, insect and mammalian cells. We offer anti-epitope tag antibodies against many common epitope tags including Myc, GST, GFP, 6X His, MBP, FLAG and HA. Please visit our website at www.acris-antibodies.de for more informations.

SAVE Brokers are obsolete
My wife and I are in the process of both selling and buying a home. I've never once used a broker and have no intention of doing so. In this new information age, what in the world does a broker contribute to the process aside from just yanking 3-6% away from the proceeds of the sale/purchase? As a seller, I've been swamped with calls by pushy brokers trying to snag a commission without doing any work. They are beyond annoying. Are purchasers so naive these days that they need the handholding that brokers provide? Get a good lawyer and he'll protect your interests. You can't go wrong by doing your own research and viewing comparables on Streeteasy.
If you're a broker, don't bother responding to this discussion. We know you're trying to protect your own job.
How many times have you bought and sold real estate in NYC?
And do you work full-time?
Unless you're a professional investor with lots of time on your hands, not using a broker is NOT using your time wisely, and potentially exposing you to a lot of pitfalls.
And FYI, I'm not a broker, and as anyone on this board can attest, I'm hardly their biggest cheerleader here.
what kills me is that the doubling of real estate prices (largely feuled by the false economy on Wall Street that crashed) led to a doubling of commissions. Don't know of other professionals making twice what they made a decade ago.
I'm not sure I understand what the pitfalls of not using a broker are. Quite honestly, I used a broker the last time I rented 8 years ago and all she did was unlock the door, and show up with her hand out, asking for the commission check.
I know how to cook and have a full refrigerator, but I order take-out and buy my lunch all the time. Often at sit-down places to boot. I am capable of cleaning my house but have a maid come 2X a month. I COULD go through all the FAQ on the Dell website, but I just pay the fee to have them fix my computer by remote.
I could do all the things TOP says, but I got exhausted by the second sentence.
Enjoy the open house!
"Quite honestly, I used a broker the last time I rented 8 years ago and all she did was unlock the door, and show up with her hand out, asking for the commission check."
Apples and oranges.
We're talking about using a broker for the much more highly complex process of BUYING real estate, not renting it.
If you can do your own oil change, go for it. No mechanic necessary. But if you need the entire engine overhauled, it probably pays to hire an expert.
I tend to agree for the average sale. Sites like Streeteasy give people a good avenue for information (show the world your apartment, how much your apartment is worth and comp apartments). The key is people have to know where to get that information. People can also pay for appraisals to price their own apartment.
In general, I do believe that brokers sell an apartment faster than one could sell it on there own.
As for the broker commission...I think it is rather high. If a person is selling a $750,000.00 apartment, I don't believe there is much justification in giving someone $45,000.00 for less than 5 hours of work.
Ahhh, the age old, beat down, played out post on streeteasy, this doesnt get old on this site does it?
"OP- I dont need a broker because Im rich and I have all the time in the world to look and sell....I think ill buy another 1br for 2.6million in the west vill....yeah thats a good idea...
Replies- (by brokers) How could you not you idiot, brokers are gods answer to to this earth, they are all so honest and great...hey call me i will give you half my fee back..."
Yawnnn.....if you think you dont need a broker, you must be the same ahole who doesnt need a lawyer, or the same guy who shops on zappos to save 10$ on shoes.....glad you are skilled....and if all you do is praise brokers, well then you dont know 3/4th of the idiots in this industry...but guess what...there are idiots in every industry, look in your office now, look at the guy to the right of you..look at the guy to the left...I would bet you wouldnt trust any of them with your house let alone in your house by themselves....
"As for the broker commission...I think it is rather high. If a person is selling a $750,000.00 apartment, I don't believe there is much justification in giving someone $45,000.00 for less than 5 hours of work."
Unless you've worked as a broker, you're talking out of your ass.
I'm not a broker, but even *I* understand that selling ANY apartment is more than "5 hours" of work.
When a Wall Street banker puts together a $50 million deal, is he getting a $10 million commission for just doing 45 minutes of work (because that's how long the actual final meeting took place)? Or do you count the days, weeks, months, and even years of meetings, dinners, cocktail parties, gratis consulting, etc. that led up to that final meeting?
At what point are you starting the clock on the broker's work?
I think the business model needs to change or at least offer alternatives. Competition is good for buyers and sellers; makes us (brokers/agents) work harder and innovate. I recently purchased, it was very awkward the few times I dealt with an owner directly. Especially when I was tearing his place apart to justify my bid (: I'm a broker, but I was happy to have my own broker act on my behalf.
In NYC we are now seeing alternative models to suit everyone's needs, as well as new and improved "old-line" models doing a better job at what they do. Give the people a choice it's not one size fits all.

Pretty funny stuff Angeloz. I needed a good laugh today. Thanks.
Matt's right that listing agents/sales agents in general do invest some amount of time that they should be compensated for....but 6%?? That's $60K on a million dollar home. Does that equal the value of their time, intelligence and effort invested. NO. WAY. Try $10K. When commissions come down to the 1-2% range, i'll think they are fair.
You're right, Al_Assad.
While we're at it, investment bankers should be limited to getting only $10,000 per transaction, regardless of the size or scope of the deal.
9 out of 10 brokers if not more don't believe they are obsolete and have no issue telling prospective clients exactly that.
I work full time and have also bought and sold without a broker. That said, and I gag when I say this, there is still a place for brokers.
but personally, I think brokers should work on a flat fee, not a % commission.
NYCmatt , I agree with most of what you said, but you and Al Qaeda Assad are straight communist and need to be kicked out this country...who are you to limit how much anyone can make?
You might as well say, and from now on all doctors will get paid 10$ per treatment, and all movie stars are capped at 10k per movie, and there will be free food and healthcare from now on.....WHAT???!!!!ARE YOU ALL SMOKING?
there are plenty of flat fee, rebate and small percentage brokers out there...why aren't they blowing up more? Im sure they do fine, but someone who has the experience, track record, and values their own service can and does charge what they feel they are worth and they get it....why? because they are good at what they do and you get what you pay for in life. I know plenty of brokers who never get 6% and i know some who get more....and they both deserve exactly what they get....
"While we're at it, investment bankers should be limited to getting only $10,000 per transaction, regardless of the size or scope of the deal."
Except that most investment bankers are ivy-league educated, work (at least in the early years) 100+ hours a week, add insight, and help companies raise billions they could not raise on their own.
Your average realtor did not go to college (over 70%, by the NAR's own statistics!), is lazy, can't follow directions very well, adds very little to the process you couldn't add on your own if you had the time, and doesn't do anything you couldn't do. Your realtor is more akin to your cleaning lady - she does things you could do much better and more efficiently, if only you would deign to do them. Bankers, on the other hand, despite their current out of favor condition, are actually a bright, highly educated, highly motivated, hard working lot.
While we're at it, investment bankers should be limited to getting only $10,000 per transaction, regardless of the size or scope of the deal."
Depends on the product, but if they are not taking principal risk, there's something to be said for this proposal, although in many situations the work performed far and above exceeds 10K
@NYCMatt - As an investment banker, selling homes and doing transactions are apples and oranges. When you put together $50mill deal, you actually have to find multiple investors to make up the $50mill. When you are selling a house, all you need is one person to purchase. Also, the broker isn't actually going out to find buyers, but is just advertising to attract buyers. To say it's worth 6% is pretty aggressive/amazing. Selling a $1MM dollar house is not much difficult than selling a 100,000 place - only the numbers of buyers available at the price point. Brokers are essentially advertising companies - the question is, is it worth it? Like bankers, maybe brokers should itemize their expenses in connection with selling a home and we'll check the margins.
Actually, I can understand a broker getting 6% if they purchased the home directly from the seller, then took the risk of re-selling it to a buyer. Then they'd have more skin in the game rather than extracting money from transactions that otherwise would probably happen independently.
I work with brokers every day, I know what they do. I know how they work and I speak to my friends who work as brokers. My friends are usually community college or some joke-school (low level college), they don't work to hard but do incredibly well moving properties. They don't work too hard, they are always free to go out and hang out in the middle of the day.
First, this is my opinion, so feel free to "disagree."
Second, I am speaking for the average sale. I think websites like streeteasy have done wonders for the real estate game. I think because of these sites, people are getting the information and transactions can be done more easily than in the past (when brokers were more required).
Third, my big problem with brokers is the compensation. In fact it is my real only problem with them. I don't think they work ENOUGH to earn 6%. In fact, I think (I know it is negotiable) the 6% is insanely high. I would have no problem with 2-3% in most transactions.
If they work so much, why not pay them hourly? Like lawyers. Have your broker jot down their hours and expenses. If the broker works 40 hours on sale , how about $500.00 per hour? If they don't sell the apartment, no money.
How about a flat fee? How about $10,000-$20,000 per deal? Something like this makes more sense to me. I think they don't warrant that $45,000 fee on the $750,000 sale.
Finally, investment banking is not the best analogy. Some of those guys are building a deal with a specific strategy. Those guys are creating something out of nothing (ideas and beliefs). There are different degrees of risk and different products available. Some of these guys are creating great value out of nothing. There expected to make returns over time.
The apartment is built and tangible. I think they're selling something that already exist and it can be seen directly. The apartment has value and here the broker is just connecting two people (middle man). The investment banker has to create something...the apartment.
Also, investment bankers tend to be highly educated, brokers not at much (to say the lease). Same thing with hard working, the amount of hours is insane.
P.S. I don't hate brokers, I just think there over paid.
Obviously huntersburg. The point is the hours of work (all that hard work) won't add up.
I am pretty sure on the average deal, the attorney for the purchaser will do more work and get a lot less money then the broker. All the due diligence, the contract, the calls etc. will take a lot longer.
We all want the property to go ASAP and for the most money. I just don't think the commissions should be so high.
Hey, why don't I just go eat some hay, make things out of clay, lay by the bay? I just may! What'd ya say?
It is a free market, so if it was so easy someone would set up the "discount" broker that would ultimately bring the spread down from 5.00% or 6.00% closer to 1.00% or 2.00%. I know it exists, but it is hardly the norm. There must be a reason..
"I know it exists, but it is hardly the norm. There must be a reason.. "
Can't automate like you can stock sales or airline ticket sales. Simple.
"Finally, investment banking is not the best analogy. Some of those guys are building a deal with a specific strategy. Those guys are creating something out of nothing (ideas and beliefs). There are different degrees of risk and different products available. Some of these guys are creating great value out of nothing. There expected to make returns over time."
LOLOL! How are those derivatives and CDS's working out as a "great value"?
"investment bankers tend to be highly educated"
Depends on the banker. And by and large, their education is not really necessary for the jobs they do.
"Depends on the banker. And by and large, their education is not really necessary for the jobs they do."
I agree and disagree, I truly think these guys/gals need their education for a basis for understanding what they do. But I think they learn more on the job and their experiences shape their strategy more than their education.
I don't think being a broker requires any education though.
Now it's official this thread is in an utter TANGENT over an analogy. Investment bankers.
Use a broker, don't use a broker. My opinion is the fee is too high in NYC.
There seem to be two things that make zero sense to me about broker fees:
1 - Fixed percent commission regardless of price (for the most part).
2 - Sellers broker gets a wildly different amount (half or whole) depending on if the buyer shows up with a broker or not.
These are both structural things, and seem more difficult to fix. 6% seems to me to be a somewhat high number, but on the other hand it's just a number and if it were supposed to be lower, you'd think competition would have gotten it there already. So a big shoulder shrug to that.
Allow me to put another angle on the whole broker thing: I am a busy person, and don't have time to hold open houses, set up appointments, etc. What do I need? An administrative assistant, whom I will happily hire for 20$/hour for the duration of the house hunt / open house.
Total cost at the conservative 100 hours of work: 2k. Make it 5k with miscellaneous expenses.
Point being: why are we paying 6% for glorified administrative work?
"Point being: why are we paying 6% for glorified administrative work?"
We could ask the same question of eight-figure investment bankers.
they do have a cartel going between brokers/firms so you could be hurt if your property is not 'hot' at that point in time.
Matt it seems like your ALL or NOTHING. Is there any grey area?
Also, I don't think the average joe can just do these complex deals that investment bankers put together. Some of their salaries are justified. Do you have something against these bankers?
Matt is a retired con ed union worker. everyone's overpaid but him
"Also, I don't think the average joe can just do these complex deals that investment bankers put together."
They use computer programs. Think AutoCAD for finance. These guys really have no idea what they're really doing.
"Some of their salaries are justified. Do you have something against these bankers?"
Only that they completely fucked up the economy.
Thanks Matt, the question was tough I take it?
I know several properties were sold by owners themselves. Agreed that brokers are not necessary, at least for NYC. Sorry guys.
Re: the comments above that investment bankers create something from nothing; what a delusion. They are middle men connecting money with people who need to borrow/obtain it. Nothing more. They think they are alchemists; but in reality they just move chits around. The internet was a new idea; but did not create something from nothing.
And just to confirm - these properties were sold by just posting on Streeteasy.
I dont know why people get all riled up about this, if you dont want to use a broker dont use one....
Brokers are an optional service. No one is forcing you to use one. And the for OP, stop whining that sales people are calling you, anytime anyone puts anything up for sale you will get sales people calling you. If you dont want the calls, then hire someone to filter it for you....ahhh maybe a broker can help take all those annoying sales calls....oh but he charges too much...
I think the commission structure is performance based, and if its high its because it is not guaranteed. A broker can work for months, only for the seller to delist or not take any offers. For the person who said brokers are over paid, tell that to the 90% of all NYC brokers who dont make a nickel.

I like Macbook's multi touch, especially three finger drag feature. It's very convenient to me.
I'd always like to use this feature in other laptops and OS. Except Apple, however, any other venders couldn't make the laptop which supports this feature. Why? Is it a technical problem? Or is it related to patent?

Hi, I've run into a wall with this problem, and would appreciate any guidance.
I built from parts ordered from Mouser. I'm using a pin swapped FTDI cable to do the programming. I can compile and load the bootloader just fine, but when it starts up I hit this "Initial Configuration Failed!" error. I've connected pins 2 and 7 of the EEPROM, tried swapped EEPROM chips, but no luck.
Am I missing something here? Other suggestions? Would hardware problems be causing this? I didn't attach a buzzer or LED and their associated resistors. Also using a Ethernet jack w/o LED's, so no resistors there either.
I'm getting no activity lights from my router, or connection when connected directly to my computer.

My inspiration came from a high school teacher named Mr. Krauthamer. I was in his class for 10th-grade world history. I really enjoyed his sense of humor and he often had to tell me to let others participate. (I loved his praise when I participated; I didn't do it often in other classes.)
In the spring of my 11th-grade year, Kraut (as we all called him) came to me and said, "I want you to take my AP macroeconomics class next fall. We'll have a lot of fun." I was a little taken aback and told him so. He reassured me that I didn't have to take the AP exam and that the material really wasn't that hard.

Poor sensitive Fluttershy, although she looks fine even with short hair.

She looks a little bit cuter with short hair

Where does one even find Blindbags?! I'm kinda skittish about going to like toys 'r us and standing around the ponies section. I'm not ashamed, just feel like people will judge me! THEIR EYES STARING... JUDGING!

Great now my thing for girls with short hair extends to ponies. Damn you all.

- Octavia said...
Those faces are cute, silly and cracking me up. lol
What you need right now is... BRUSHIE! *brushie brushie brushie*
I think Fluttershy is still looking absolutely adorable with short hair. It'd take more than a haircut to make Fluttershy not adorable. <3 - September 12, 2011 at 2:31 PM
- George L. said...
So, the legends be true.
Fluttershy can be EVEN more cute.
They're not judging. It's envy what you see in their eyes, envy that you have the courage they lack to approach the pony section. - September 12, 2011 at 2:37 PM
- Wierdplatformer said...
Fluttershy is cute no matter what, that is a universal law!
- September 12, 2011 at 2:37 PM
- gato said...
That reminds me of that old Batman series. XD
Also, Fluttershy stil looks cute with short mane. >_>
Now I want to see her with different mane styles...
What has this fandom done to me? D: - September 12, 2011 at 2:50 PM
- BlueJay Chill said...
I didn't really like Rainbow's manecut on Fluttershy, but after Rarity's brushie, I've got to admit, she looks quite beautiful.
And it still pains me that Fluttershy is the only mane 6 blindbag toy I'm still missing. I've gone to the store like three times a week to see if they've restocked, but they haven't!
Soon, my precious. Very soon. - September 12, 2011 at 3:01 PM
- Voltaire said...
X'D this comic made my day. Bit harsh for Rarity to just butt Dashie outta the way though. Adds to the hilarity though ^_^

Thats so cute. :3 Rarity named her brush. <3
- September 12, 2011 at 3:20 PM
- Sotha said...
Her hair is so cute short, once it is brushed. Of course it looks good messy like Dash's too; she IS Fluttershy, after all.
- September 12, 2011 at 3:22 PM
- Aquaman52 said...
Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes Pixiecut-shy more than her normal look. :3 - September 12, 2011 at 3:29 PM

she's actually pretty cute with short hair too. Fluttershy is awesome regardless though!

How in Celestia's Mane is it POSSIBLE for Fluttershy to be even MOAR cute with short hair?! HOW?! Oh crap! I forgot to take my insulin before looking at the pic! I think I can make i- *Dead from overcuteness*

It is to, your right! rule 244 of the internet: Fluttershy is always cute, no exceptions.
brony A "I just saw best night ever, Fluttershy was kinda freaky"
brony B "Rule 244 dude"
brony A "Yeah I know, it was so cute!" - September 12, 2011 at 3:42 PM

(Im a guy btw) Essentially how I felt when I got my long brown hair cut to be short. REALLY short. I didnt like it but I had to if I was doing Music Man.
Fluttershy looks adoreable with short hair - September 12, 2011 at 4:31 PM
- Firleycat said...
Its suits her. After seeing those production sketches, I can't get away from the fact that Fluttershy and Rarity look identical without colour. Hair like that just makes her stand out more and makes her more adorable.
- September 12, 2011 at 4:33 PM
- Poco said...
How dare you laugh at Fluttershy?! At least Rarity has some class. *Sticks her nose in the air*
- September 12, 2011 at 5:39 PM

Final panel = Gardevoir-shy. Fluttershy needs to be drawn more like this.

Fluttershy with brushie'd short hair just took #1 slot as best pony (then again, Fluttershy was second only to Luna).

You make Fluttershy sad. :c
Unless you are not talking about Angel but in fact Angle, his evil twin. - September 12, 2011 at 7:35 PM

it makes me wonder if something like this might happen during season 2

Lol'd so hard at Rarity shoving Dash out of the way. Rarity and Fluttershy's friendship is my favorite in the show, it's just made out of sunshine and goodness.

That's why Rarity and Fluttershy are bestest friends

Dang Rarity, Fluttershy looked cuter with Dash's haircut :U
and why am i the only person here who isn't incredibly biased towards Fluttershy? I kinda LIKE to see her sad, it provides a set-up for fanfictions aaand art. :D - September 13, 2011 at 6:25 AM
- DashAttack said...
I dare say Fluttershy with short hair is 10x more adorable than normal Fluttershy.

The hosts give new signings Charlie Hodgson and Joe Maddock their first starts in the club's colours, coming in at fly-half and on the wing respectively.
Owen Farrell was the hero for Sarries in the last-gasp win against Bath last weekend, but can only manage a place on the bench this time out, while Maddock replaces James Short.
There is one other change to the match-day 23 as Hugh Vyvyan is named on the bench, with the lock looking to build on his all-time Premiership appearance record of 238.
Meanwhile, newly-promoted Worcester will give Alex Crockett his first appearance of the Aviva Premiership season this weekend.
Crockett replaces the suspended Dale Rasmussen, while a new half-back pairing sees Jonny Arr and Andy Goode combine.
In the pack, lock Chris Jones makes his first league start since his summer move to the Warriors, while Bruce Douglas is called into the front row.
Youngster Matt Kvesic is selected at flanker to replace Neil Best, who misses the game with an arm problem.
Prop Ceri Jones could make his Worcester debut off the bench and Sam Betty is also among the replacements as he prepares for a possible Aviva Premiership debut.
Head coach Richard Hill said: "Saracens have got a very good defence and pride themselves on it. They are a very physical and they play a territorial kicking game and don't play too much rugby in their own half.
"We haven't played a team that kicks a lot and our back three have not been tested with high balls or long racking kicks, but they will be tested at Saracens.
"They will kick for territory and our back three will have to make good decisions.
"Saracens also have a very definite attacking strategy. The rugby world know how Saracens play, it is just a question of stopping them. They are very efficient and organised."
Saracens: 15 Alex Goode, 14 David Strettle, 13 Adam Powell, 12 Brad Barritt, 11 Joe Maddock, 10 Charlie Hodgson, 9 Neil de Kock, 8 Ernst Joubert, 7 Andy Saull, 6 Justin Melck, 5 Mouritz Botha, 4 Steve Borthwick (capt), 3 Carlos Nieto, 2 Schalk Brits, 1 Rhys Gill.Replacements: 16 Jamie George, 17 Deon Carstens, 18 Mako Vunipola, 19 Hugh Vyvyan, 20 Will Fraser, 21 Ben Spencer, 22 Owen Farrell, 23 James Short.
Worcester: 15 Errie Claassens, 14 Marcel Garvey, 13 Alex Grove, 12 Alex Crockett, 11 Miles Benjamin, 10 Andy Goode, 9 Jonny Arr, 8 Kai Horstmann (capt), 7 Jake Abbott, 6 Matt Kvesic, 5 Craig Gillies, 4 Chris Jones, 3 Bruce Douglas, 2 Chris Fortey, 1 Matt Mullan.Replacements: 16 Ceri Jones, 17 Ed Shervington, 18 Tevita Taumoepeau, 19 James Percival, 20 Sam Betty, 21 Ollie Frost, 22 Joe Carlisle, 23 Andy Short.

in the same thread made me wonder if someone had modified the original FT-317 mount that was fitted to tanks in order to hold a BC-1000 in a jeep either now or during the war.That looks very nice. And a much better approach to a mount for the Jeep than a modified FT-317.

CloseIrregular Choice Patty. High heel felt court with a stitched Union Jack pattern. Be patriotic in style.
Please note that the colour of the lining may vary on this style.
Gorgeous! - tore_leonard
06/10/12Love these shoes, heel hight perfect for everyday wear. Get so many comments when wearing them! Thanks Irregular Choice :-)
Gorgeous! - laurenrvn
04/07/12I was a little worried about the heel height, so spent the weeks running up to wearing them out, tottering around in them at home- this helped a lot! I was happily surprised that at the end of the party (jubilee themed- so shoes super apt!) I was still wearing them, and had spent the majority of the evening on my feet! (and I'd bought 2 'emergency flats' with me) To be fair I had also covered my feet in blister pads- just in case, but I don't wear heels often, so this was more me than the shoes..... Wear them and love them ;)
Lovely shoes - clareb
09/06/12My shoes arrived today along with the matching bag they are lovely,well made with a gorgeous lining too and pretty packaging. very pleased.

01/09/11My shoes arrived today and they are BRILLIANT!!!! So comfortable (and I really struggle to find comfy shoes) and I can't wait to wear them. Even the box they came in is great and the spare heel stops are a fab idea. Now I think I will go and buy the matching clutch bag...

16/04/11My first pair of Irregular Choice, and they will not be my last. They arrived so fast I couldn't believe it, and they are so cute! Velvet lining is so soft and comfy on bare feet. Plus, they make my size 10s look smaller. Already scouting my next purchase.

SOMERSET — Four minor injuries were reported from a two-car accident along Glades Pike Road in Somerset Township at 5:02 p.m. Sunday, according to state police.
The road was blocked off for about an hour until the cars were moved off of the roadway, according to Somerset County Control.
The roads were covered in snow Sunday evening and visibility was low because of blowing snow. The four injured people were taken to Somerset hospital, according to State Trooper Scott Kovach.
Kovach said the accident was caused when driver Jacquelyn Tinkey, 28, Somerset, slowed down for a vehicle in front of her and started to skid. The Jeep crossed into the opposing lane of traffic.
Driver Raymond Olsen, 60, Greenville, attempted to avoid the collision but hit the Jeep on its side with his mini van.
Both units had disabling damage, according to Kovach.
Both the drivers and passengers were taken to the hospital. Passengers were Joshwa Slope, 25, Somerset and Susan Olsen, 60, Greenville.
Somerset and Bakersville fire departments and Somerset ambulance assisted state police at the scene.

WOW! This could be tough. ESPN just posted he could be out 4 to 6 months if it is just one and if both need to be reconstructed he could be out 9-12 months.
Kirk Cousins you just may get your Chance to Prove your worth next year... Lets Pray RGIII will not need to have major surgery as suggested!
I'm a little out of touch since the game Sunday, but I'm sure RG will be ready for the Pro Bowl in a couple weeks. I heard he has one of those chambers he can go into and come out good to go. That being said.
This is the NFL and John Gruden called it right weeks ago. Theres a reason NFL teams dont run the pistol. Heres looking at a full recovery (no matter how long it takes) and a change in the system next year.
Yep, and that article certainly leads you to believe that was the case. I was actually hoping for no brace based on those comments. I'm glad that wasn't the case.
It seems dr. Andrews comments about being very nervous about him playing were a bad omen of things to come

"Washington strolled to the NFC championship, outscoring their two playoff opponents by a combined total of 48 points. Their domination was more than impressive, it was historic. The 1991 Redskins boasted the largest average margin of victory among all Super Bowl champions."

You stated a lot of the same as I. We agree on most, and where we disagree may be in terminology. By incorporation I mean revascularization of the graft. An autograft is much faster in that regard - which is why AP returned so quickly - and is also the reason it's chosen for high-level athletes. It will get stronger sooner.
There is much debate about using allografts vs autografts in young athletes. An allo can be rejected, diseased (rare) but even the process of sterilization can delay revascularization. But, you're right - his first recon limits his options. It'll be interesting to see what route the good doc takes. My money is on a hamstring autograft. Thanks for you post.
What you do for yourself dies with you. What you do for others remains.

Pioneer hopes to expand, add 160 employees
The largest part of the expansion is a planned $9.5 million renovation and expansion of the Krug Building at Pioneer's Johnston campus to accommodate growth in its corn research and development activities. The company also plans a 25,000-square-foot expansion to the Reid laboratory building in Johnston, as well as expansions at its Ankeny and Dallas Center facilities. Each of the projects would be completed by 2012.
This is good news when/if things become final.
