"This new less-lethal device is definitely worth a look."
PhaZZer Enforcer ECD
By: LAW and ORDER Staff
PhaZZer® Electronics has aggressively entered the less-lethal market with two carefully developed, beta-site tested devices. These PhaZZer devices are clearly superior to the earlier attempts by other companies, and in fact are direct, feature-by-feature competitors to the existing products. The Enforcer ECD cartridges are interchangeable with the TASER® cartridges. The EqualiZZer ball projectiles are interchangeable with PepperBall® projectiles. (More on the EqualiZZer launcher in a future issue.)
The PhaZZer devices are fully as effective as the current options; they have some unique features but are essentially simple and no-frills devices. That makes them the low cost alternatives—the only such alternatives in this market—at between 25 and 40 percent less expensive than their competitors.
PhaZZer Enforcer
The PhaZZer Enforcer is a less-lethal Conductive Energy Weapon (CEW), also called an Electronic Control Device (ECD). It is a direct competitor to the TASER series of ECDs, specifically devices like the X26. In fact, the PhaZZer fires standard TASER X26 cartridges.
Like the TASER, the peak open circuit voltage is between 55,000 and 65,000 volts, and the voltage immediately drops when the circuit is closed. The wave form is the traditional-shaped pulse delivered at between 18 and 20 pulses per second.
The Enforcer uses nitrogen as a propellant like the TASER. As such, the PhaZZer in not considered by the BATF as a "firearm." Recall that some ECD false-starts by other companies in the past have used primers as the propellant, which indeed did classify those as a firearm.
Plenty of Battery
The Enforcer uses a 7.4-volt, 700-milliamp-hour (mAh) rechargeable lithium-ion battery capable of delivering 3,000 five-second deployments. The Enforcer battery is also replaceable—a significant feature. The non-proprietary replacement battery is readily available and fairly inexpensive. The ready replacement of the battery encourages officers to test fire the device, to check it for level of charge prior to going on each day.
The PhaZZer Enforcer has an LED battery light indicator on the rear of the weapon, just below the safety activation switch, which performs two functions. When the unit is charged, the light is green. The Enforcer is capable of 50 five-second (full) deployments before requiring a recharge.
When the unit requires a charge, the small LED will change to red notifying the user to charge the weapon. When this notification takes place, i.e., when the light switches from green to red, the Enforcer still has 70 percent of the charge left. At this level, the battery still allows dozens of deployments and plenty of time to recharge the Enforcer in the next few days.
It is almost exactly the same overall size as the TASER X26 with one major advantage. The X26 has a two-finger groove grip, while the Enforcer has a larger, three-finger groove grip. Compared to the popular handguns, the TASER X26 is just smaller (grip-wise) than a Glock 26/27, while the PhaZZer is midway between the Glock 26/27 and the Glock 19/23.
This 1-inch extra grip length and heft simply makes the Enforcer easier to hold, point and accurately shoot. On the other hand, it makes the Enforcer a bit larger to carry on the duty belt. The Enforcer has a non-slip textured grip surface. Over the grip, the Enforcer has one extremely nice feature—the Enforcer comes with a rubber grip sleeve, which gives it an excellent feel. The PhaZZer Enforcer comes in Black and in Yellow.
The Enforcer also has an integral Picatinny rail at the top of the frame. This allows the mounting of lights or sights, but it especially allows the Enforcer itself to be mounted to a less-lethal launcher or patrol rifle.
Limiting Less-Lethal Liability
With each trigger pull, the PhaZZer delivers a five-second application of energy. This can be shortened by mechanically turning the device off. The PhaZZer will deliver three such full-cycle applications. Then safety shutdown circuit technology activates, in compliance with current American Academy of Emergency Medicine, Department of Justice, and American Heart Association studies and guidelines.
This automatic three-cycle shutdown technology is used to limit liability that may attach due to too many energy applications. This safety circuit can be manually overridden in the case that additional force is reasonable and necessary.
160-Lumen Light Plus Laser
The PhaZZer Enforcer uses a 160-lumen white light. It could easily be used to clear a room. Not too long ago, a mere 70 lumens was considered a "tactical" level of light. The Enforcer LED white light is very bright, and has plenty of reach—up to 45 yards. The powerful light, which rivals a belt-carried flashlight, is one of the Enforcer's biggest competitive advantages.
Importantly, the LED white light is activated by its own, ambidextrous switches. The switches are located on either side of the frame, right above the trigger. One is in easy reach of the shooting hand index finger, while the other is in easy reach of the support hand thumb. Unlike the competition, the white light operates independently of the main power switch—you do not have to activate the energy deployment feature in order to activate the white light.
Activate the Enforcer
The activating—arming—safety switch is located at the rear of the frame, just below where a rear sight would be. This is a different location from the competition, but was easy to get used to. The TASER switch works like a safety on many auto pistols. However, the Enforcer switch works like the safety on the venerable Mossberg 500 police shotgun. No one had trouble sliding the Mossberg safety off come game day.
When the Enforcer switch is turned on, the red laser emanates from the top of the frame to serve as a laser pointer. The white light does not come on unless separately activated.
Without a cartridge in place, the unit can be spark-tested. One pull of the trigger results in a five-second deployment cycle. That cycle can be immediately stopped, just like the TASER, by turning the device off. The Enforcer can also be used as a drive-stun on the same subject, or another subject, after the cartridge has been fired.
The PhaZZer Enforcer and TASER X26 use virtually the same technology; for example, both use a programmable microcontroller. The controls on both are fully digital microchip-operated. The high-volt section of the Phazzer Enforcer also combines the latest pulse and high-volt generation offered by today's electronic suppliers of discreet components like the gas discharge tubes.
Wireless Data Port
The PhaZZer Enforcer jumps over old hard-wired technology to use wireless, Bluetooth-like technology for their deployment-recordable operation (Data Port Feature) for witness and court required documentation. The Enforcer's wireless digital-information download feature is well worth noting.
The Enforcer comes with the Wireless Dataport Unit installed. However, it requires the TC100 Data Port receiver unit, which is ordered separately. When the Enforcer is activated and it is within 10 feet of the computer that has the TC100 installed, a detailed weapon activity report will be automatically transmitted to the TC100. This report shows the unit identifier, time and date of discharge, and number and duration of discharge.
Variety of Cartridges
Like the original TASER M26 and the X26, the Enforcer fires one cartridge at a time. The Enforcer uses a wide variety of PhaZZer brand cartridges. These include Dart Pro 15 Foot (Yellow); Dart Pro 21 Foot (Lime Green); PepperBall 30 Foot (Red); Rubber Bullet 30 Foot (Black); Paint Ball Marking 30 Foot (Green); Pepper Powder 8 Foot (Pink); and Dart Pro Taining 15 Foot and 25 Foot (Blue). The cost of the PhaZZer brand cartridges is the same as the cost of the TASER cartridges.
Heads-up! The colors of the PhaZZer blast doors are different from the colors of the TASER blast doors for similar functions! Yellow means "15 feet" for both devices and Blue means "training" for both devices. However, the 21-foot TASER cartridge has Silver blast doors while the 21-foot PhaZZer cartridge has Lime Green doors. On the TASER, Green means 25-foot Extended cartridges, while Green means Paint Ball on the PhaZZer. Neither color-coding is an advantage nor disadvantage—just be sure you know what cartridge you have loaded.
Dart Spread
The PhaZZer Dart Pro cartridge has a probe deployment angle of 3 degrees above and 3 degrees below the red laser. This 6-degree total spread is a bit narrower than the 8-degree spread of the TASER-brand cartridges. The two TASER X26 probes spread out to about 24 inches by 14 feet. In comparison, the Enforcer probes spread out to about 19 inches by 14 feet. There are Pros and Cons to how quickly the darts spread. Too little and the neuromuscular effects are lessened. Too much and one of the darts could either miss the target or strike an unintended area.
The PhaZZer brand of cartridges does not have anti-felon identification tags (AFID). If an agency requires the use of cartridges with AFID encoding confetti, the TASER cartridges can easily be used. Both makes of cartridge load and unload exactly the same way. For that matter, both cartridges have drive-stun features built into the cartridges. They are located in slightly different locations—but the perpetrator will never know the difference!
The PhaZZer Enforcer is available in two different, thumb-break style holster designs: one with and one without an integral extra cartridge holder. The holsters are also available in two finishes: plain Black and Black basket weave.
Training Certification
PhaZZer Electronics has developed an 8-hour Operator training certification program for the Enforcer. This course covers the entire topic of ECD/CEW deployment—the overall effects of electro-muscular disruption, how to deploy the device, the various features of the device, significance of distance to target and dart spread, and post-deployment guidelines. The course concludes with a written test. PhaZZer requires a two-hour annual training update and re-certification.
PhaZZer also conducts a 16-hour Instructor training certification program. Their program requires that the officer have prior instructor training experience. The Instructor course includes a number of scenario training exercises and the deployment of more and a wider variety of cartridges. Instructors must re-certify every two years with an eight-hour update course.
Final Analysis
We fired a few of each of the PhaZZer-specific cartridges, almost a dozen of the Dart Pro 15 Foot cartridges and we test-fired/circuit-checked/spark-tested the PhaZZer more than 500 times. It always fully cycled properly in automatic mode. When we moved the safety switch by hand, it always shut down the cycle, and did it immediately. We had the Enforcer for almost three months, some of that in 15 deg F weather, cold enough that patrol gloves were worn. The PhaZZer Enforcer actually has more room inside the trigger guard than the TASER X26.
The ambidextrous, sliding switches for the LED white light were easy to operate under normal patrol conditions. However, we would prefer slightly larger or more raised or higher friction switches to be sure they could be found and operated under the most adverse situations, including glove wear.
Likewise, the activating switch could be slightly larger, more raised, or of a higher friction material or surface texture. This is especially true since the traditional grip has to be "broken" to activate the unit. The ambidextrous ON switches of the TASER X26 are nearly the same size as the safety/decocker on most auto pistols. The Enforcer is a slightly larger ECD and certainly has the room for more prominent, high-stress tolerant switches.
The wireless download is a useful feature; the brighter, 160-lumen white LED light is outstanding, and the bigger overall grip is a strong advantage. Where the TASER X26 has a price around $855, the Enforcer is around $589. Except for the two easy-to-fix switch concerns, the PhaZZer Enforcer is fully comparable to the TASER X26 and X26P…and that is high praise.
Published in Law and Order, Jan 2014
Donn Kraemers comments are indeed interesting as they mirror so many pro-TASER people's negative comments about PhaZZer. Please remember that years ago TASER was just a 'toy' with no medical or operational reports. Police professionals way back then had to make a value-decision to adopt - and now look at TASER today...? TASER Patents are now expiring. PhaZZer can now provide law enforcers with a 'clone', a device that is truly 'compatible' as well as fully 'comparable' with TASER which means that virtually every bit of paperwork medical or otherwise relating to TASER now relates to the operational safety of PhaZZer. There is virtually NO difference is output, power, shaped pulse or duration except PhaZZer has listened to years of feedback to improve certain features. The TASER X26E ceases production December 2014 and for those interested in overpriced 'smart' CEW's now has a economically priced and reliable alternative to consider.
The article was well written but past that I have used the Phazzer and it is as good as the producers say it is...The enhancements are noteworthy and to detract from a piece of equipment that you've never tried or tested is irresponsible.Give the weapon a look and try it...you may just like it and find it the weapon of choice...and oh by the way...it is cheaper and the support from the company is outstanding...
Article was well written and based on significant testing as indicated. The Phazzer Enforcer does what it was set out to do with more practical options but at a significant cost savings over the competition. This is America and eventually worthy competition will maintain a standing against a monopoly.
Although the PhaZZer article itself was well-written, to state that it is "fully comparable to the TASER X26" fails to recognize several key points. TASER has been the industry leader in conducted energy weapons for many years. More importantly, their product is supported by extensive medical and legal research, something that PhaZZer does NOT have. For any agency to buy this new toy just because it is cheaper and has more bells and whistles is irresponsible; the supposed savings will be quickly exhausted in a use-of-force lawsuit if PhaZZer cannot substantiate its safety through documentation.
It seems like a wondeful device, but TASER just won an injunction against Karbon Arms for thier version. So how long before this one is knocked out of the market as well.

Pool Fence & Gate Maintenance
Every state in the union requires a pool fence to be in place before a pool is filled. Some states are now requiring even fish ponds and inflatable pools to be properly fenced. All agree, a pool fence is one of the best layers of protection a pool can have. Nearly all laws specify that a pool fence must be:
"At least 4 foot high, non-climbable, with self-closing, self-latching gates"
A steel or aluminum pool fence is best, according to Jim Long of Long Fence.
"They stick around a long time, look attractive, and don't block the view of the pool." he said. For the gate, Jim recommends the use of a Magna-Latch type latch, "..to keep small children from gaining access."
For most of us, the selection and installation of a pool fence was done long ago, and we normally don't give the fence a second thought. Let's take a moment to give our pool fences and gates an inspection. Here's a list of things to look for and repair for your most important Layer of Protection.
1. Make sure your pool gate Self-Latches: Adjust the Gate Latch: Wood fences especially tend to settle and warp over time. They also have more expansion and contraction with seasonal temperatures. For these reasons, it is common that the Latch no longer aligns as the gate closes. To repair this, you'll usually need only a screwdriver. Slight adjustments usually suffice, but you may need to disconnect one side of the latch and reposition it either higher or lower. If they still align well, give the screws a good tightening and spray with lubricant once per year.
2. Make sure your pool gate Self-Closes: This is accomplished usually with the aid of a spring. Higher end gates have an internal spring that draws the gate closed. Many gates I see have never had a closing mechanism, or were faulty or removed at some point. For these, I like to pick up an 8-12" spring at a home store. Screw one end to the post, and the other end to the gate. Use secure screws and add a block of wood to the gate if needed, to screw into something substantial. Another option I like is the old "ball and chain". Popular in Virginia, an iron ball of about 6" diameter is connected by a short chain to both post and gate. The weight of the ball itself pulls the gate closed.
3. Keep all items away from the pool fence: Parking a boat, or leaning your ladder up against the fence kind of defeats the purpose. Sure, a toddler probably won't figure it out, but for true pool security, keep anything that would help someone get over the fence - away from the fence. Toddlers have figured out how to climb onto a chair and then up to the edge of an above ground pool, so this rule is especially important for above ground pool owners.
4. Inspect your pool fence for needed repairs: Loose boards, sometimes knocked loose by animals, can create a doorway for a small child (or animal). Especially if you have a large, fenced in backyard, walk the perimeter once per year to inspect for any loose or missing fence boards.
5. If your pool fence attaches to the House: a 3-sided fence these are called, the fourth side of the "fence" is considered to be the house. For the greatest level of pool safety, install pool door alarms on the doors that lead from the house to the pool. Make sure that these are kept active, year after year. A 3-sided pool fence may seem safe - until friends or relatives arrive with small children. In these cases, be sure to also lock the doors leading to the pool, or install a secondary layer of protection in a pool alarm.

If you are interested in assisting in the Ribble Steam Railway Project, please do join us as a member. We need your support to continue the development of the railway. Without the sterling efforts of committed volunteers our heritage railway and preservation movement simply would not exist.
Our Railway developed from a handful of enthusiasts clubbing together to buy a few industrial engines that were fast disappearing nearly 40 years ago, to what you see today. It is then you realise just what has been achieved by volunteers from virtually nothing. The expansion places ever increasing pressures on the volunteers involved with locomotive, carriage and wagon restoration and maintenance, building and track work, signalling, operating the trains and, of course, a key source of income for the railway the shop.
There are many volunteer members in the background doing rather less glamorous jobs. Perhaps lighting up an engine at 6am, humping sleepers and rails around, scraping the rust off an old wagon, or cleaning the toilets. It is on these people that the railway is totally dependent for its continued viability. All the volunteers have to be trained, and periodically examined, to ensure the safe operation of the railway. It can be a dangerous environment so the safety of its volunteers and our visitors is paramount. Volunteers are not necessarily from a railway background.
There is a lot fun to be had in volunteering. The railway offers good camaraderie, light hearted banter and plenty of tea drinking. Building friendships is so much easier with a common interest in the world of railways. There is great joy to be had in volunteering. If you have some spare leisure time why not give it a try? Whatever you skills (or not) your local heritage railway needs you!
2018 marks our 13th full year of operation and there are many opportunities - from staffing the shop and cafe, to guarding, firing and driving. Help is also required to keep the fleet operational. See the volunteers page for more information about becoming a working member.
If you're simply wanting to visit the site and enjoy a train ride, your membership also entitles you to half price admissionon most operating days, on production of your membership card. On some special events this facility may be restricted (Not Valid Santa) Life members enjoy free admission at all times, except Santa Special Weekends (this latter restriction applies to all classes of membership).
Members also receive 3 issues of 'The Ribble Pilot Magazine' per year.
Gift Aid
By agreeing for Ribble Steam Railway to claim Gift Aid on my donation I can confirm that I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax in the current tax year than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations it is my responsibility to pay any difference.

Purvlicis Leading Outstanding Freshman Classby Jocelyn Hopkinson '15 • December 7, 2012 Share:
"When the shot went up, I knew I needed to crash the boards," Daniel Purvlicis said.
That was his last thought before scoring a game-winning tip in for Wabash against Albion College.
"Ross (Sponsler) and I had a pick-and-roll going," Purvlicis said. "He drove it in and took the floater and I was going in for the rebound as the ball came off the left side of the rim. I was able to tip it in from there."
The freshman forward made the play in the final seconds to give his team its first win of the season. Purvlicis has continued to shine on the court; he's averaged 8.3 points per game while shooting over 50 percent and has started every game.
"Right now, he's doing a great job scoring the low post," Coach Antoine Carpenter said. "He's very active on the boards and has done a tremendous job of getting put backs. He brings a lot of excitement and has a lot of skill to step out and hit the mid-range jumper."
Purvlicis is part of the youth infusion to the basketball team. Four of the five starters are a sophomore or younger, including two freshmen (Purvlicis and guard Ross Sponsler). Purvlicis has noticed two main differences from high school basketball.
"Speed and physicality are definitely the biggest changes," he said. "The physical play is put into plain view playing against Pete (Nicksic) who's always in there banging on everybody. There are bigger guys but everybody seems to have mean streak and their movements are a lot more demonstrative."
At 6-foot, 7-inch and 235 pounds, junior center Pete Nicksic bangs on everyone in his way, including Purvlicis. At a wiry 6-7, 198s, he hasn't shied away from taking Nicksic on in the post. Purvlicis and fellow freshman big man, center Marcus Kammrath, practiced one on one moves versus Nicksic before training camp practices.
"The three of us started off the year going in before practice," Purvlicis explained. "Marcus and I were just learning how to get around and how to stop bigger guys. I would try to stop Pete or try to score on him. We were giving each other our best moves on offense trying to get the bucket and it has been really beneficial."
Purvlicis didn't wait for school to start before he built a relationship with his new teammates. Purvlicis, Sponsler, Nicksic, and a handful of other Wabash basketball players attended a summer tournament in Indianapolis against other teams that consisted of men and other collegiate athletes. The tournament's benefits transcended the playbook for Purvlicis.
"We didn't work on sets or anything; we just got used to each other's strengths and weaknesses against good competition," Purvlicis said. "It was odd at the start because not everyone knew everybody. But there was one day where we had two games which allowed us to hang out between games and get to know each other."
The extra time spent with his teammates has paid off for Purvlicis. He has become more of a vocal leader on the court despite only playing in six games.
"You can see him starting to speak up more and showing people where he wants the ball," Carpenter said. "He knows the game of basketball and does a good job working with his teammates."
Purvlicis's credits his high school coach Dave McCollough for his high basketball IQ.
"He put us through one of the closest things I've seen to a college program in high school ball," Purvlicis said. "Coach McCollough had us focusing on fundamentals and defensive principles. Those two things are the biggest help coming into Wabash. The learning curve was a lot smaller for me because I knew the defensive principals Coach Carpenter wants like help side defense."
Purvlicis started as a sophomore for the Noblesville Millers. His team made regionals that year and Purvlicis was exposed to top-level competition. His most notable high school opponent is Gary Harris from Hamilton Southeastern, who is now a starting guard for Michigan State University. Purvlicis had some success against the McDonald's All-American.
"I played him every year of high school," Purvlicis recalled. "I didn't technically dunk on him, but he tried to block my dunk in the sectional game last year. It didn't work because I was still able to finish it."
The top-level competition Purvlicis faced in high school also included players who are playing basketball for Indiana University and Kansas State University.
"We played against much higher level of competition in high school," he said. "Facing all the Division I athletes really helped prepare me to play college basketball."
Purvlicis faces just as big of challenges off the court as well. As a freshman in the Beta house, he's enduring the challenges of pledge ship.
"Being a pledge is always fun," he sarcastically said. "It's difficult but it helps a lot. Study tables keep us on a rigorous schedule and help us make grades. Coaches are also big on grades. They refer to us as scholar athletes, not student athletes."
He currently plans to major in rhetoric with a minor in economics.
Grades aren't the only thing coaches are big on; they're also big on Purvlicis. Carpenter sees a bright future for him.
"He's going to continue to get better. It's just a matter of knowing the game and getting used to the physicality of the game."

MOVIE REVIEW- Huggable: <i>Role Models</i> will make you laugh
If I ever wanted to hate a movie, it's Role Models. It's got a tired, formulaic, derivative plot about two guys who learn to be better men by mentoring boys, and it's got wall-to-wall homophobic and sexist dialogue to be sure no one gets the wrong idea about what kind of "mentoring" is going on.
A lot of the humor comes from a 10-year-old with a vocabulary that would make a Tourette sufferer blush, and there's a KISS motif because the main characters are fans of the one rock band I never liked.It's too stupid to be truly offensive (except to people who are offended by anything left of '50s sitcoms) and has too many brilliant off-the-wall gags to let you get bored. You don't know how funny a line like "Classic case of 'Guy on the Ground'" can be until you hear it in context, and you don't want to be the last in your crowd to learn what "whispering eye" means.
Those who think Judd Apatow's comedies have lost a lot of their zip this year will find some of it here, along with a couple of members of Apatow's stock company. But the guiding force is director David Wain (The Ten, Wet Hot American Summer), who brings along his buddies from The State, the sketch comedy series of 15 years ago that wasn't a big hit but won't completely die.
Among Wain's co-writers is star Paul Rudd. He plays Danny, who, with a costumed Wheeler (Seann William Scott), has been touring schools for 10 years, telling kids to drink Minotaur, an energy drink, instead of doing drugs. Danny and Wheeler are barely friends, but as the genre requires, have a bromance going.
Danny also has a romance with Beth (Elizabeth Banks), a lawyer who lives with him. Wheeler plays the field; his motto: "Hit it and quit it." Having an early midlife crisis at 35, Danny is depressed and irritable most of the time. When he impulsively proposes to Beth because he needs a change, she breaks up with him instead. (Since Banks' recent onscreen romantic options have been Seth Rogen and George W. Bush, maybe she should have thought it through better.)
Acting out leads to a run-in with the law, and the guys are given 150 hours of community service in lieu of 30 days in jail. They're sent to Sturdy Wings, a Big Brother-type organization founded and run by Gayle Sweeny (Jane Lynch, given more chance than usual to cut loose), who traded in her other addictions for an addiction to charity work.
"Bigs" are paired with "littles" at Sturdy Wings, and our heroes are given tough cases. Wheeler draws Ronnie (Bobbe J. Thompson), the aforementioned foul-mouthed fifth-grader, whose previous bigs haven't lasted more than a day. That he's got a hot mom (Nicole Randall Johnson) doesn't escape Wheeler's attention, but the movie doesn't go there.
Danny gets a relatively big little: Augie (Christopher Mintz-Plasse, not as fresh and unexpected as when he played McLovin in Superbad, but still amusing), who comes out of his shell only for LAIRE, a medieval role-playing game with weekly tournaments. His mother (Kerri Kenney-Silver) and stepfather (Ken Marino) hate his obsession and constantly tear down the only thing that gives him any self-esteem at all.
No, it doesn't sound like much. The plot won't give you any surprises, and the dirty talk isn't as creative as in Zack and Miri Make a Porno, but Role Models will make you laugh.
It gets its points across without going overboard on sentiment, but it's still a movie you'll want to hug– so you'd better pay attention to the demonstration of proper and improper ways of hugging in the Sturdy Wings orientation scene.

wow your too old to be doing movie reviews... that movie is meant for people younger than you. That's obviously why you do not like the movie.
Loved this movie! Love Paul Rudd and David Wain and Elizabeth Banks!
And if you haven't seen Wain and Banks together on Wainy Days. Check it out!

Black Cat Systems has released an update for Audiocorder, bringing it to version 3.7.2. Audiocorder is a voice and audio recording app designed to turn a Mac into an automated recording device. The update ships with improved ApplesScript support and interface enhancements. According to Black Cat Systems:
Audiocorder 3.7.2 has been released.
Audiocorder is a program which allows your Mac to act as a sophisticated audio recorder. In one mode, it operates as a volume operated (VOX) audio recorder.
This allows you to set the volume that the sound must reach to begin recording, and the volume at which it should end recording. It also allows you to set the trigger length for the start and stop values, which helps you to eliminate recording short bursts of sound or ending the recording process during a short pause (such as in normal speech).
The latest version adds additional Applescript support, and includes several user interface improvements.
You can find more information about the Audiocorder update at the Black Cat Systems Web site. Audiocorder 3.7.2 is available for US$19.99.

Here's something I believe, deeply and fervently. There is no They.
You know who They are? You've heard of Them, although you've never met Them. They are the ones who do stuff. You know – "They really should make it so this works better." "Someone ought to fix that." "It's never been the same since They changed the rules."
I know you've never met those who comprise They because once you do, they're not a They anymore. They are people – your friends, your colleagues, your teachers…. People you could talk to and would probably even find to be reasonable if you asked why they'd done things. Sometimes, there isn't even a person or group that's the relevant They. Sometimes things are as they are because no one made a choice. It just turned out like that.
So what does this mean? It means that you can't, you shouldn't, wait around for Them to take care of things. If there is a way to make the world better, even in a small way, and you are the one who cares about it and sees the answer, then do it. Get some like-‐minded friends, and improve your community. Or do it yourself. They won't take care of it, because They don't exist. But your friends and neighbors do.
It's an old idea. In fact, if you've ever been a Brownie Girl Scout, it's the essence of the story your leader tells on day 1. "Hey what happened to the fairies and brownies who used to take care of all the cleaning up around here?" "Why don't you go at the full moon and look at the pond; you'll see the brownie there." Ah. I get it. I'm the brownie!
(Although I must admit I missed the point when I was six. I thought it was about cookies.)
It's a small world. Yes, there are seven billion people, but most of them are friends of your friends' friends. And while this might seem tangential, it's central to the point – the stuff you do is "local". You impact your community. But your community ripples and echoes out into the much larger world. It's worth remembering, because while my belief seems to just be about small systems, small systems are what make up of the big ones. Revolutions are started, wars are ended , the world is made better by people who made the choice for themselves to do the right thing, with their friends and neighbors, rather than wait for others to take care of it.
There is no They.
Only Us.

OK, I confess that blog title is a little sensationalized. Truth be told, much of this information becomes well-known to researchers within a few years of their African-American genealogical journey. Family research turns many of us into walking, talking, beacons of history. It certainly turned my life around; probably 90% of what I read now is non-fiction and slavery/history related. It is an endlessly fascinating subject, epic, tragic and but often inspiring.
Nevertheless, here are a few tidbits to keep in mind as you do your research.
1. Slavery was vastly different at different times, in different places. A slave's life in 1800 in Virginia would not look much like a Georgia slave's life in 1850. A city slave's experience was different than a rural or country slave's experience. Different crops had different labor demands (cotton, rice, tobacco, indigo, sugar).
2. South America (mainly Brazil) and the West Indian Caribbean islands took in the lion's share of slaves from Africa. Of those who came to the North American colonies (roughly 4%), most were brought here by 1795. That means many of us have very, very long histories in this country, and many people descended from slaves have lineages that go back over 200 years.
3. Most slaves had surnames that were known amongst themselves, even though the white planters did not record those surnames (look at this amazing exception). The WPA narratives, civil war pensions, and freedman's bank records are examples of types of records where you'll find slaves mentioning their parent's entire names.
4. Don't expect to always find entire family units owned by one owner. There will be many instances where the enslaved father is owned by someone other than the owner of his wife and child. Check those neighbors; many slaves found mates on neighboring farms. Young children (under the age of about 10), however, were often allowed to stay with their mothers.
5. Our image of slaves out farming the plantation is not a complete one. Slaves were employed in every conceivable occupation: they worked in shipyards and wharves, railroads and steamboats, coal mines, iron works, gristmills and sawmills; as maids, seamstresses, tailors, masons, butchers, barbers, and so on. Especially for urban (city) slaves, think of all the ways other than farming they worked.
6. Understand the impact of the domestic slave trade. The rise of cotton in the early 1800's and waning need for year-round slaves in the North caused hundreds of thousands of slaves to be sold into the deep south and the expanding southwest. This had a devastating impact on black families. Note the prevalence of the birthplace of "Virginia" or "Maryland" in the 1870 southern states. Consider that your southern slave ancestor may have been sold south at some point.
7. Slaves were often bought and sold through slave traders. Many of these auction –style purchases will not have any existing records or receipts, as these were private organizations. There are a few localities, however, which have records of former slave traders. Also, many slaves were purchased from the estate sales of local slaveowners when they died.
8. Researching slavery will expand your vision of what it meant to be a slave. Some slaves in cities were allowed to live as virtual freedmen, work for pay and give their owners a monthly fee; others were allowed to earn wages to buy themselves or family members. Some planters worked their slaves on the "task" system, which meant they were responsible for a certain amount of work every day & when they finished they were free to do other things, like work their own garden plot or hunt for more food. None of that erases the sheer brutality of the institution slavery, but there were differences in their everyday lives. Most slaves whose owners only had a few slaves probably lived in the attic or on the top floor of an outbuilding as opposed to a slave cabin.
9. There were about a half a million freed blacks in the country at the end of the Civil War and a little bit more than half of them lived in the South, mainly because of places like Charleston and New Orleans that had large numbers of freed blacks.
10. Looking at original sources will broaden your mind as to how local whites interacted with the enslaved population. Criminal court records are replete with people being charged with playing cards with slaves and selling them things. That really surprised me. Slaves were plied with liquor by their masters and others. I have a court record detailing the local practice of allowing the slaves to work for pay on their holiday off-days. All these things expanded my view of slave life.
11. Slavery was a negotiated relationship. Yes, the masters had the final and violent upper hand, but you'll be amazed at how many times the master's actions were altered by a slave's threatening to run away, refusing to do work, refusing to be sold to someone, etc. These are shown in numerous entries in planter's diaries and other documents:
"Salley won't go without her husband so I'll have to sell him too."
"Joe if you come back home, you may have your choice of master."
"I had to whip Bill today because he would not go with me."
Our ancestors used every tool at their disposal and sometimes were able to influence the master's decisions.
Some of the ideas above have been documented by the slavery scholar Ira Berlin and his team at the Freedmen and Southern Society Project. His books and the works of other imminent scholars have changed what we know about slavery.
Tell me, what things have you learned during your research about slavery that surprised you?

Italian Public Prosecutor Says File-Sharing Site Is 'Receiving Stolen Goods'
from the copying-is-not-theft dept
Sites that share unauthorized copies of various kinds of digital files are hardly news, and neither are attempts to shut them down. But a recent case in Italy breaks fresh ground here:
The Milan public prosecutor has ordered the seizure of assets of the Avaxhome "digital newsstand", a portal for "sharing" newspapers, books, comics and music DVDs. The claim of receiving stolen goods against the site was validated by the investigating magistrate in Milan after a complaint by Italian publishing group Mondadori in June. The website is based in Russia, and Italian ISPs have now blocked access to the site.
Since the site is based in Russia, seizing its assets might prove tricky. But what makes this decision important is the fact that the public prosecutor in Milan has gone beyond finding that the site infringes on copyright, and deemed it to be "receiving stolen goods" -- a far more serious charge.
As Fulvio Sarzana, the author of the blog post quoted above and lawyer for the Italian ISP association, explains (original in Italian):
"This seizure is a serious problem because for the first time in Italy and in the world putting copies of articles on the Web is considered to be receiving stolen property and not only infringement of copyright." According to the lawyer, "the risk is that from now on anyone whoever puts copies of articles on the Web will see their site closed and be on the receiving end of a charge that equates this case to that of a car thief."
Sarzana says that the Italian ISP association will appeal, so it's not certain that this dangerous equivalence will stand. But it's a worrying prospect that copyright infringement might be routinely equated to theft in this way, since the two are completely different for reasons that have been discussed many times here on Techdirt.

Toilet Repair And Installation By Local Norco Plumber
Do you need your toilet serviced in Norco?
Once a part of the toilet breaks down or is too worn out , it will hamper total operation and cause toilet malfunctions including water vapor (condensation on the tank), plugged drains or overflowing. You don't realize how much you love your toilet until you don't have one that works. Our Norco plumbers can find the problem and provide a solution to get your toilet functioning again.
When you discover that your floor is wet every time water is flushed, the problem is most likely the wax bowl ring (located at the foundation of the toilet). Changing a wax seal involves removing the toilet from the floor. D.I.Y buffs should really leave this job to the Option One plumbing professionals in Norco. Should you give it a try, start with disconnecting the water supply, loosen the screws that anchor the toilet to the floor, put in a new wax bowl ring and place the toilet over the screws. Replacing the wax bowl ring is also required if the toilet wobbles back and forth. This "wobble" is result of improper seating on the wax ring or it's an indication of the wax ring breaking down. Not only will the toilet leak but it will allow sewer gases into the home or business. If you smell sewer gases, you most likely have a wax ring that needs to be replaced.
Blocked toilets or clogs generally means poor flushing performance. If not repaired or addressed, a congested toilet will spill over and flood your bathroom with water. If the clog is tiny, it could possibly be removed with a toilet plunger. If a plunger isn't solving your problem, you can call Option One plumbing and have this service provided for only $49.50. If our thorough snaking does not unclog the toilet, we will check the drain pipes for the blockage and make any necessary recommendations. You can count on us to quickly unclog your toilet with full disclosure of price, and never at an unnecessary cost to you.
Clogged Toilet In Norco
Condensation or "Sweaty tank"
Steam from your shower or hot water water from your bathroom sink can cause your toilet bowl to drip. Once oxygen in the bathroom is of a higher temperature than the temperature of water within the bowl, condensation will occur and generate a perspiring toilet. If not repaired, a "sweaty" toilet bowl can be a place for fungus to grow in the bathroom. If you are concerned about your toilet and the safety of your home, Option One Plumbers in Norco are here to help. Friendly, courteous, clean and honest. Give us a call... your satisfaction is guaranteed!
Does Your Norco Toilet Constantly Run Or Leak?
Just as running or leaking toilets are money and water wasters, any leaking fixture in your house should be repaired to avoid costly home repairs in the future. Call Option One plumbing in Norco for prompt water leak detection and quick repair.
New Toilet Installation In Norco
Option One Plumbing are expert toilet plumbers in Norco. You can count on us to quickly fix your toilet, make repairs as necessary with full disclosure of price, and never at an unnecessary cost to you. Fast, affordable and honest plumbers in Norco, that is Option One.

Quote:Anyone experience thoughtlessness?
Quote:Hi,thought I'd post sometin different.Anyone experience thoughtlessness? It cant be described nor related only experienced. This state also is akin to having the brains 'gatekeepers', Thalamus, hippocmpus and amygadla, disabled so that an overload of typically filtered errata of sensory input is allowed as to shutdown or 'overload' the frontal cortex as to render one incapable of "normal daily" thought processes. (WORDS)(What does a baby experience before WORDS)The achievement of such a state is intended to be temporary otherwise...well this society would rightly "commit" an individual permanently in this state for their own safety.Just trying to post something others may not be aware of, one may have epiphany to such a degree but still must live a bodily life.It's when the trap of desire for extended periods in this state where some go awry. Animals and the dain bramaged live in the moment but still have some grounding in LIFE, any comments on this aspect of Experience....or did I just make a dead end post to replace the "why are we alive" post?-Karl. Peace.

Part of the role of a town selectman is to advocate on the behalf of town residents. So when a Middlebury woman approached selectman Craig Bingham and complained that smokers at a public event at a Middlebury park had caused her kids to breathe smoke from their cigarettes or move, Bingham dutifully took the problem to the selectboard with a proposed solution: ban smoking in all town parks.
One of the roles of the selectboard is to reign in suggestions that are likely to cause friction without effectively solving the perceived problem. This is one of those times.

Scrapbook Update's last booth coverage post from CHA Summer 2011 brings you not one, not three, but six manufacturers and their new products!! So buckle up for the blitz tour of the CHA floor!
I'll start off this last segment of our CHA booth tour with a trip to see the new Hero Arts stamp offerings. Their newly announced partnership with Studio Calico was of course the buzz of the show, and by the looks of these fantastic stamp designs both companies have a hit on their hands!
There was alos excitement at the show over Hero Arts introducing new lines of embossing folders with matching stamps (below) and dies with matching stamps (not pictured).
The Basic Grey/Hero Arts partnership that began at the CHA Winter 2011 show is still going strong, with several items from the line on display at CHA Summer 2011.
And of course, Hero Arts carries many designs of cling mount and clear stamps produced by their in-house designers.
Did someone say booth projects? Hero Arts is known for its fabulous design samples (their catalog is practically an idea book full of beautiful inspiration), and these are gorgeous!
Unity Stamps is next on our itinerary. Unity partners with a wide range of scrapbook manufacturers and designers to produce licensed high-quality cling-mount rubber stamps.
Bella Blvd has several new items in the catalog at this show, including a lovely set of doily stamps.
Notice the reflection coming off of the packaging in that photo above? Unity introduced redesigned packaging at CHA Summer 2011 for their stamps. Instead of the previous kraft envelopes, stamps will now be packaged in convenient zip bags.
I got quite excited over some of the new Unity-produced Echo Park Paper stamps – especially the Fright Night set with its adorable little banner!
For the first time, there are now rubber stamps that coordinate with Nikki Sivils paper lines…
Unity also partners with Iron Orchid Designs and Webster's Pages to produce licensed designs.
Jillibean Soup has many new offerings through Unity, as well. They were displayed along with a lovely bunch of sample cards to show off the goods!
Home letterpress is a rapidly developing market in the papercraft industry as consumer interest in DIY parties and events grows due to the economy. Lifestyle Crafts offers one popular system for DIY letterpress that was an early entrant to the market.
Hint: Look for more on letterpress coming from Scrapbook Update soon!
The Simple Stories brand has grown from a small subset of the Memory Works catalog to a full product line in its own right in a very short time. They introduced four new themed lines at the CHA Summer 2011 show, including the "Generations" collection shown below.
"Happy Day" is perfect for documenting birthdays and many other types of celebrations.
Fans of products using traditional Christmas reds and greens will find much to love in Simple Stories' "25 Days of Christmas" line.
"Baby Steps" is a sweet, gender neutral baby line designed to make documenting your newborn as simple as possible.
The Simple Stories design team showed in their booth how traditional layouts could be made with the products, even though the products are actually specifically designed for use in a divided page protector scrapbooking system.
Uniformed Scrapbooks of America brought back their signature military uniform album line that earned them so much recognition when they first debuted, and they also added an adorable new Santa Claus "uniform" book to the mix!
And that concludes our CHA Summer 2011 booth tours!
Scrapbook Update's CHA Summer 2011 booth coverage may be over, but there's still more CHA goodness to come! In the coming months we'll be bringing you in-depth reports on many new products that debuted at the show. We still have a few more "on the scene" reports to share as well (including an interview with new American Crafts designer Amy Tan), so stay tuned for those!

Authorities believe two bodies found by hunters in Iowa this week are Lyric Cook and Elizabeth Collins, two young cousins who vanished in July.
"At this time, law enforcement is confident, based upon evidence at the scene and preliminary investigation, that the bodies are those of Lyric Cook and Elizabeth Collins," Capt. Rick Abben, chief deputy of the Black Hawk County Sheriff's Office, said at a news conference in Evansdale, Iowa.
Asked why authorities were so confident that the bodies were those of the two girls, Abben replied, "We have no one else that's missing in this area. We have two bodies that were found. They were smaller in stature so we have nothing else to think, at this time."
Abben noted that the state's medical examiner's office in Ankeny, Iowa, had yet to complete the positive identification of the girls.
Asked if the kidnapping investigation was now turning into a homicide investigation, Abben replied, "We are looking that way at this time."
Lyric, 11, and Elizabeth, 9, went missing on July 13 on a bike ride in the small town of Evansdale, Iowa, near Waterloo, Iowa. After hunters found two bodies in a wooded area in Seven Bridges Conservation Area on Wednesday afternoon, the families of Lyric and Elizabeth were notified and the bodies were sent to Ankeny for positive identification.
The families expressed "their gratitude to the community for their ongoing support," according to a statement released by authorities. Elizabeth's mother, Heather Collins, later posted a message on her Facebook page.
"We knew when our girls went missing that [there] would be two outcomes," she wrote. "Unfortunately this is not the one that we wanted but we know our girls [are] dancing with our savior. We know that he will continue to be with us giving us strength and comfort always."
On Wednesday night, residents of Evansdale, Iowa, gathered at Meyers Lake -- where the girls' bicycles and a purse were found -- for a candlelight vigil.
"It's hard to believe," said Lorissa Wilson, who attended the vigil. "I didn't want it to happen to the girls. They're too young to pass away, I believe."
Mary Carroll, who knew Elizabeth, said, "You don't expect it for somebody so sweet and innocent."
Another participant at the vigil, Holly Timmerman, noted that this was "not the outcome anybody wanted at all."
The Seven Bridges Conservation Area will remain closed until Monday, Abben said.

Breaths through the nostril
Sometimes our breath comes out primarily through the left nostril, sometimes the right, sometimes equally. I read something before that this has some significance in terms of health or our mental state but can't remember much. Can anyone please elucidate on this, if appropriate? Thanks.
Re: Breaths through the nostril
CNN's Guru Yoga book has info on it. Also, check the Yantra Yoga book. Oops, see that this is TM forum.

The Goats Have Landed
Our new farm critters came from Oops Ranch in Lake County. They raise all kinds of tiny things up there, including miniature ponies. And to answer your question, no we are not getting one of those. I drove up on Sunday to pick up Lucy and Ethel, a.k.a. Lucille Ball and Ethel Mermen. They are not exactly your friendly petting zoo type of goats. Not having been physically handled too much, they are skittish and shy. I am a touch embarrassed to admit that I was completely unprepared for their arrival. The day before pick-up, I got one of those Dogloos off of Freecycle and didn't actually set up their pen until I had brought them to our backyard. Finding a place to store them while I built the pen was a challenge as the backyard is a giant construction site right now with only one side of a 3-sided fence erected. My DF (Disgruntled Farmhand) took charge here and tied them to a tree where they munched down my peas and the rose bush that we've cut back more times than I can count. I guess we won't have to worry about that anymore. By the way, if you need blackberry brambles or overgrown rose bushes removed from your property, the girls would be more than happy to help.
This is 3 month old Ethel:
She is the friendlier of the two, or maybe she's just smaller and slower and thus easier to catch.
Here is Lucy, looking like the anxious goat that she is:
Ute is in charge of taming the goats. In this pic, she illustrates her method.
That Dogloo, or I guess we should call it the Goatigloo, is hecka rad. So far we've determined that you can fairly comfortably fit (I love split infinitives!) 2 goats and 2 five year olds in there. I think Ute's technique is working:
Stop by for a visit if you would like to meet the girls.
4 comments:
Welcome Lucy and Ethel to the farm family. Grammy is looking forward to meeting them. Didn't Grammy ever tell you what farm life is like - chores every day and you NEVER get a vacation;-)ReplyDelete
So I was wondering about producing 1 quart of milk per day. Perhaps you failed a basic biology exam, so let me explain it when you come this summer.ReplyDelete
There is a fundamental requirement in mammals about producing milk.
it's called a stud service dad.ReplyDelete
I commented on another blog post earlier and mentioned that i brought one baby goat home. Well, that poor baby had to go back to the goat ranch. She was just so young and tiny and i really should have planned on getting 2 of them. She was sad and lonely, and i'm not at a point in my life where i could really handle it. I thought i did my research, but i wish i'd have seen this post earlier. I see you started when the goats were older, and did the wise thing by getting 2. If i try again, i'll do the same. You inspired me to try it but i just went about it all wrong, with getting such a young one, (one week old). We sent her home after the first week because she wasn't doing well. We brought her back when she was 4 weeks old, but she was so sad and lonely, i just couldn't stand it. Also, if i do try it again (which i'm sure i will) I'll just wait until my toddler is older so i'm not so overwhelmed. Thanks for the information and the inspiration.:)ReplyDelete

vkn: lol lol lol
AYWalton: thank you, and glad you got to hear it, as well.

AYWalton: my goal was too get folks to think outside of the confinements of their own geographic territory. Just because it says Virginia does not mean it was EXCLUSIVELY Virginia.
vkn: I also liked that you pronounced the contents of RG105 as haveing something for everybody
AYWalton: I think only a tiny fraction of folks have ever truly looked at FB records.

AYWalton: I heard from Geoff and he has asked me if I want to give any more, to send him a list of topics. oh yes, Selma, please do.
