Snopes thread
Checklist of federal benefit programs available to documented and undocumented workers
Surprise, food stamps and non-emergency Medicaid aren't available to undocumented workers, and neither is Florida KidCare. Good luck "never paying a cent" in hospital bills.
What a novel he wrote on this supposed mastermind of an illegal immigrant! And yet not a single name or reference.
And it ends with "just delete it if you believe I'm wrong," the cherry on top of every right-wing forward sundae.

I'm reading about this woman with eight kids everywhere, but I've yet to see a name.
She's probably the same woman that Ronald Reagan claimed was collecting welfare and driving a Cadillac.

@ CharlieE
Oh I'm sure there are plenty of Cadillac driving welfare recipients.
The problem is that Reagan never revealed that they were executives and shareholders at big defense industry and agribusiness corporations.
Damn leeches.

This welfare illegal immigrant with eight kids sure does get around. She's popped up in at least four different forwards.

Hey D'Lynn?
Do you know who voted to cut veterans benefits? Do you?
Hint: it WASN'T the Democrats.
Now who does that leave?
I know this is really, really, really hard for you to get your brain around, but the party that doesn't give a shit about you is the Republican Party.

Lordy, lordy. What next? Hey, I'm a DFH and help 'Nam vets regularly. What a load of crapola. Firstly typical rightwing bring out the violins and weep a while for our wounded vets, but heave forfend that we actually, you know, take care of them. If vets are getting a raw deal - and mostly they ARE - it has nothing to do with welfare and lying ridiculous crap like this.
Secondly, show me one teabagger who's actually DONE anything for any Vet ever? I've gotten into arguments here with trolls who wish to play their violins about how fabulous vets are, but then they do nothing of substance for them. Bullhockey.
And then, finally, yeah this darn lady does get around, doesn't she? Just pooping out those 8 anchor babies all over the darn place. Keep it still, sister!
It would be funny except that idiotic, racist, sexist teabaggers grab hold of lying bs like this and BELIEVE it with all their might.
Clearly a made-up story crapped out by a rightwing thinktank recycling the old memes that have been around since the days of zombie Ray-gun.
Sheesh: can't you rightwing think tanks at least come up with some new material??????
This "vet" isn't real, and his story stinks like last week's fish.
I call super bull twaddle.
And yes: who has actually voted for better benefits for Vets? And who has voted down those benefits (and let me give you a big old hint: Bush and John McCain). Jerks. They should be ashamed of themselves, but as we see... not so much.

Living in a border city I must point out that while 25% of our residents are immigrants (legal and otherwise)--30% of the city lives in serious poverty. So where are all these high paid illegal-mommas making $18K each year per kid Grampy motorcyle man? Oh that's right--they're all in your head.

This is kind like that other RWF by the guy who whined about feeling "so tired." Wasn't that guy also self-righteous and "so tired" of the welfare babe with 8 kids, who was making tons of cash and living the high life or something??
These people sure do like to complain about their lots in life, don't they??? And nearly 100% of the time, they are victims of illegals and poor people and minorities.
My question: why is it that they never feel like victims because of the obscenely wealthy? That's what I don't get. They're all like a bunch of rabid dogs fighting over broken bones and crumbs.
Talk about a "wake up sheeples" moment. But they'll never learn. Pitted against the wrong people to their own detriment; voting against their own self-interests; whining about crumbs; and never questioning the excessively wealthy who really control the show.

@ Anonymous troll
Snopes isn't biased to the Democrats. Snopes is biased in favor of facts.
And unfortunately for people who's heads live in their asses, facts have a liberal bias.

@ Anon
Totally true. Snopes is biased by reality, which has a well known liberal bias.
Seriously, I wonder about all the Republicans whining about Snopes. Its a couple of people who research urban legends as a hobby, not some huge evil media conspiracy.
Which probably has a lot to do with why they hate it so much. I mean, if two people can debunk almost 100% of your idiotic talking points in their spare time, what does that say about your side's message and ideology?

"something that could be a small part at getting this country back under 'our' control"
It's the 'our' that I find kinda creepy.
Never "our country". Always 'our'
country. It reminds me of Sarah
Palin's incessant winking.

I like how the rightwing troll PROJECTS his/her authoritarianism onto us, by claiming that we see Snopes as our "leader." I doubt that most/all who comment here regularly see Snopes that way, but it's a "tell" for how most rightwingers think/act/behave. They are so inured into listening to "daddy" - as in RushSeanBilloGlenn and their authoritarian ministers (disclaimer: not all are like that, but the C Street fundies are) - and blindly and unquestioningly doing and believing what they're told - that they project the same blind unquestioning ways onto others.
No, in fact, one of the bigger differences between most of the lefties I know v. the righties I know is that, in the main, the lefties QUESTION things, do their research independently, and make decisions based on what they've learned.
I think Snopes is pretty unbaised in terms of political agendas, but that's because I've OFTEN gone out and double-checked on what I've read in Snopes. I find them to be pretty darn reliable. But in most cases, in terms of the junk that we read here daily, very, very simple Google searches OFTEN debunk the crap sent out by rightwingers.
It's not like I am blindly following anything or anybody or any website. Sadly, the same usually cannot be said about rightwingers. And when their lies and bs are debunked, they fall back onto the standard line that all lefties are "liars."
Yeah, right: live in your little coccoon created for you by the obscenely wealthy overlords who laugh at you while ripping you off. Fools.

I'd like to ask Anon-Troll why there are no left-wing email forwards? And why anonymous email forwards are considered such a great source of knowledge that right-wingers never have to fact check them?

This is a bogus right wing propaganda email, much of this is just false. Check factcheck and snopes. Owner of this blog - Why can't you fact check first instead of just pasting this garbage up here. I'll never come back to this sorry blog again. I respect HONEST presentation of facts, even RW facts, not sloppy presentation of lies designed to promulgate the divisive propaganda to divide people. You should be ashamed of yourself and this SORRY blog.

@ Last Anon
You've missed the aim of this fine blog. Things aren't posted her to make politcal points, they are posted because they have been sent around the internet as "facts" and "truths" by right wingers. They are collected and put on display here without adjustment or comment from the blog owner, mostly so they can be examined, debunked, and laughed at.
This isn't a conservative blog, its a liberal (or moderate) blog.

The Apple Store on Fifth Avenue opened May, 19th of this year. Less than five months later, the store has seen its 1,000,000 visitor. The visitor, a woman with ginormous sunglasses (which I am told were in style this summer season by Jacqui), walked away with an iPod, an iPod HiFi, a MacBook, and Apple ProCare for the trouble of climbing down the glass steps into the Manhattan store (she might have taken the elevator but we doubt it. If she did, for her bravery she probably deserves a MacBook Pro as well.)
Although 1,000,000 visitors is nothing to sneeze at, 1,000,000 customers would have been more impressive. I suppose when you build a monstrosity the likes of which Apple did in Manhattan, it is going to attract some attention, and not all of the gawkers are going to be customers. If we examine the numbers for a moment 1,000,000 visitors works out to approximately 8,928 per day, or 372 an hour, or 6 per minute, or just about one every 10 seconds since its opening.
For me, the numbers are a bit staggering, but of course so is the the population of NYC. I'd be interested to see just how many of these visitors are repeat, the amount of visitors that make purchases, and average stay time per customer. Of course this kind of data would be next to impossible to tabulate. That is why I recommend Apple offers each person who walks into their store a free, mandatory, special edition RFID tag injected underneath the skin of their forearm. Hey, nobody ever said you could be an independent Mac user.

First bake and cool your cupcakes as recipe follows. Next take your 12oz Soda cans and rinse them out. Then cut them in half. You can do this 2 ways. First I tried squishing the sides and cutting it, but when you pushed the sides back out it left some crinkles. So then I just poked a hole in the side and cut around, which worked much better in my opinion.
See the difference with the crinkled edges
After you cut the can in half, trim the edges nice and even. I also cut out the Dr. Pepper logo from the top half of the can.
Then I hot glued the logo to the can.
Next, just drop your cupcake inside the can. It's the perfect fit! *Here is a side note that I didn't think about til later. Trying the get the cupcake out of the can is a bit tricky. We kinda held it by the straw and tipped it out. But what I should have done is just take the cupcake liner off and then you just grab a fork and eat it right out of the can!
Then I just did a swirl on top of the cupcakes with the frosting. Trimmed down some straws and stuck them in the side and topped them off with a cherry!
Straight or bent, I think I like the bent straw better!
I also made some with out the cans for the little kids... When the kids got their cupcakes they tried sucking on the straw to drink the cupcakes, it was pretty cute!
I want to try this with rootbeer next time and make a "Rootbeet Float". I hope you enjoyed this post and let me know if you ever try these at home, I would love to hear about your results or recipes!

Google newest release of Chrome 23 brings some great new features to the table.
New support for GPU-accelerated video decoding will reduce the load on your system's CPU, for instance. And as GPU's use less power than your primary processor, this can notably extend your battery life (Google's own testing suggests you could see up to a 25% improvement).
Website permissions are now far more accessible, too. There's no longer any need to go searching through the Settings dialog; just click the page icon in the address bar to see the current permission, then change them as you like.
And Chrome 23 also includes a new "do not track" option, although perhaps the more interesting issue here is that Google acknowledges that this isn't always effective, and says the company is "working with others on a common way to respond to these requests in the future".
Elsewhere, Chrome's Dev channel has been updated to 24.0.1312.5 for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chrome Frame.
This release is less interesting (at the moment, anyway), consisting mostly of bug fixes and minor optimisations. But if you're interested in the fine details then the SVN revision log has more.
As usual, auto-updating should ensure you get the new releases as they appear, but if you don't have the browser installed at the moment then full builds of Chrome 23 final and Chrome 24 Dev are also available now.

Maine governor signs concealed-carry measure
Bill seeks to make names of gun permit holders confidential
Gov. Paul LePage has signed an emergency measure to temporarily keep confidential the names of Maine residents with permits to carry concealed guns.
The governor signed the measure soon after final House and Senate votes Tuesday. The bill was submitted by LePage, a Republican, and sponsored by Democratic Senate Assistant Majority Leader Troy Jackson of Allagash and Democratic House Assistant Majority Leader Jeff McCabe of Skowhegan.
"Members on both sides realize that this is really just a measure that provides some breathing room. It enables the committee to work a bill that's before it and sort of takes some pressure off. And it also sends a message to the public that we are listening, we're concerned about this, but we want to go through a thorough process and vet this bill in its entirety," McCabe said.
It comes up days after a Bangor newspaper issued a request for the names last week. The Bangor Daily News later dropped its request.
The emergency measure would only last until April 30, allowing lawmakers more time to consider releases of permit data in more depth.
Lawmakers said their action shows they can work in a bipartisan fashion.
There was little debate on the measure on the floor of the House of Representatives.
However, some in the Senate took exception to the process.
"We are voting for a bill today that would limit the public's right to know and we're doing so without a public hearing. This is a bad public process, precisely because there has not been a public process," state Rep. Diane Russell, D-Portland, said.
Most lawmakers said they've been inundated with phone calls and emails from their constituents, many of whom are worrying about their safety being put at risk if their names and addresses were made public.
State Rep. Joe Brooks voted against the measure but said he received lots of calls and concerns from his constituents about the bill urging him to vote for it.
One of the co-sponsors said a broader bill that addresses this issue will be debated, and the public will have a chance to speak.
"We understand there is a balancing of fundamental constitution rights here, First Amendment versus Second Amendment, but quite frankly when you're talking about the state of Maine -- which has the second highest gun-ownership rate in the country -- and that goes to the very heart of Maine values. I think that's why this issue has resonated with Maine voters so well," House Republic Leader Ken Fredette said.
State officials said 6,000 concealed firearm permits are issued each year.

My Pizza Oven: Kate and Nick Martin's Indoor Wood-Fired Oven
Q&A about home pizza ovens.
You may have seen Tupper Cooks' pizzas here on My Pie Monday or on his blog. A couple weeks ago he cooked some at the home of his friends, Kate and Nick Martin. The Martins, it was revealed, have an indoor WFO. Yeah, I know. Wow. This is a first for MPO, so let's cut the intro chatter and get Kate in the hot seat, shall we? —The Mgmt.
Name: Kate and Nick Martin
Location: Tupper Lake, New York
When did you put it in? Did you build it yourself or have someone build it?
It was installed when we built our house, circa 2006. It is made of French stone and has has a honeycomb shape (the inside portion that is). It is alleged by them (the manufacturers) that this particular stone retains heat better than most, so the baker does not need to feed the fire as often. It came as a kit, but the builder put it all together. The outside stone is from a portico on one of the buildings on our property which fell down. The stone mason built this around the honeycomb inside kit. It probably took a few days to build because the granite had to be cut and fitted around the oven.
How often do you use it?
It has been used maybe six times. It is a fantastic oven, but it takes about three hours to heat up. However, once it is going it puts out great heat, and the pizzas taste delicious. It is in our house, which we rent, so it probably doesn't see that much use, which is a shame. It looks great in the corner of the kitchen.
Do you cook anything besides pizza in it?
No. Bread would be awesome, though.
What style of pizza do you normally do?
Either homemade crust or frozen dough from the local grocery store.
What's your favorite topping or topping combination to make?
Well, we like pepperoni, Hawaiian, and sausage with peppers and mushrooms.
Do you cook for friends/neighbors?
Yes. It's great to get a whole group of people together and crank out the pizzas. The last count in early November was 26 people. The more the merrier.
What does your family think of your pizza madness?
Oh, they love pizza. The more the better. And because we love visiting Italy, a pizza oven in the house was an obvious choice—although the Italians keep their pizza ovens outside. People cannot believe that we have a pizza oven in the kitchen.
I can't either. I mean, it's one thing in a restaurant, where you expect it, but at home, wow. I've always thought that was for rock stars — you know, like Billy Joel. ... Anyway ... the Pizza Cognition Theory states that "the first slice of pizza a child sees and tastes ... becomes, for him, pizza." Do you remember your first slice? Where was it from, is the place still around, and if so, does it hold up? On that note, has your taste in pizza evolved over time?
Traveling to Italy and ordering pizza in the restaurants. Still have the same pizza tastes. Don't remember the first pizza—can only remember back as far as 1996!
Where do you go for pizza in your area (when you're not making your own)?
Little Italy or Guido's.
What one thing should NEVER go on a pizza?
For me, olives (yuk). Gotta have tasty tomato sauce, too. Too much sauce makes it really mushy, though. Did that a few weeks ago!
Most unusual pizza you've ever eaten?
Sausage, green pepper, onions, anchovies. I have also had a dessert pizza with chocolate and candies. That was yummy!
What's the farthest you've traveled for pizza?
Anything you'd like to get off your chest?
Pizza sauce!
Allow me to be lazy here: Anything you want to ask yourself?
Can we get a diet pizza — i.e., low-cal? LOL
Who would you like to see interviewed next?
Tupper Cooks!—on what it was like to make the pizzas.
Ah, yes, let's throw up a picture of one of Tupper's pizzas ...
As for an interview with him, I think that can be arranged. Tupper? ;) And, Kate, thanks for playing along!

HD to SD DVD – FCP Workflow
Well… most of us have the same problem, whilst shooting HD we still deliver most of the time for / on DVD … or the internet.
If you are lucky to have a client who want Blu-ray … well congrats… even though you will run in a bunch of other problems – or lets – say issues… anyway. Web delivery is not that much of a problem… since web-based services like Vimeo or YouTube are supporting HD (720p or even 1080p).
You will give some attention though if your client have Windows machines …. I will recommend Windows Media Video as it is the most playable format for this group of users … and happy clients are good clients.
But whats up with HD footage for DVD (in a FinalCutStudio enviroment) … well, here we go:
First time we shot HD and made a DVD straight (over compressor) to DVD the end result was kinda very bad resolution … almost "worse" than MiniDV / DVX100 Productions.
Well, now you could say … you can find a setting in compressor to make it happen … well I didn't … so that's what we are using for that "situation" and we do this almost 1 years now in / with that workflow.
First, we always capture or log & transfer the native format (may it be HDV or XDCamHD or h.264 …. you name it) we alway backup this original footage … even you can transcode during capture or Log&transfer … call it as safety measure … you never know.
After that we use MPEG Streamclip for HDV (and other kind of this sort of footage ) and / or the E1 plugin for HDDSLR footage (DSLR Log & transfer workflow coming next/soon) with HDV you have to pay attention to your Frame size as the original Footage is usual 1440 x 1080 (different pixel aspect ratio) … well in order to make / deliver a FulHD Master it has to rescale / covert to 1920 x 1080 … so, you can do this in FCP or Compressor or … during the first Transcode. Because, if you are mixing footage like 550D & XH-A1 you will run in some issues. (BTW: click on the screenshots to enlarge them in a new window)
We transcode to ProRes422LT (or for FCP 6 user ProRes422) as the bit rate of LT is still higher than the original footage:
Now here comes the first thing you have decide for / by your own: de-interlace interlaced footage …. well, I tested it (online soon) … if you have to shoot interlaced and you don't need and interlaced master you probably want do deinterlace during transcode to "save" some render time in FCP. If you drop an interlaced clip in a "none field dominance" Timeline you can de-interlace "on the run" BUT the software will always have to de-interlace clips in your timeline as you chance filters or something like that … on the quality side of life I didn't notice much of a difference … to tell the trough non… you alway will lose some "resolutions" during that process at lest you don't have an expensive software and inverts even more time for the transcodeand de-interlace process … you won't see that much of a difference in the end result, especially on DVD & HD footage. (with SD footage that de-interlace stuff is more crucial, but who is shooting SD anymore 😉
Well, we are almost there … now her is one thing you have /could think about, before we are at the point of "render out" the Master.
Your Timeline settings during your editing process … well I tested this setting …
The "lowest" possible render settings (ProRes422Proxy to save some drive-space) … well, it's a bit faster (depending how much filter & stuff is going on) but u have to "schedule" more time for the final render … as you will lose all your render date as soon as you change settings (to your master render settings).
OK, almost ready for DVD.
For the master render I set everything to the best settings possible, codec is still Prores422LT.
Well. you could ask why 10 bit YUV as DSLR / HDV is 8 bit footage … well if you add a lot of filter stuff or Color Grading in FCP (with MBL or something) … even if you use Motion Templates for lower thirds or something like that, you will get the best quality … you will notice some improvements … you need everything you can get for a great looking DVD.
After that, you "simply" export a native, self contain Quicktime file… thats your 1080p Master. You can use that now for all kinds of deliveries (720p, Viemo, lo-res SD wmv for clients … you name it) and you don't have to go back for that to FCP (don't make a reference Quicktime file, as it references to your render files …. as soon you delete them your quicktime-reference-file won't work anymore … just saying)
Now it is important to go to MPEG Streamclip (again) and make a SD version of your Masterfile (this settings are for PAL land … make sure you change it to NTSC specs. if needed. (And yes now i'm using ProRes422HQ … just to be safe 😉 … you also could stay with LT)
You can batch-process convert as well … its the same thing.
After that you can use the SD file in Compressor to create the m2v file … and your are done …
ProRes422LT & MPEG Streamclip is pretty much the trick here. Now your are ready to watch your DVD full screen even o a 24′ TFT or bigger 😉
more coming soon !

Warner Bros. injects some much-needed life into their Justice League feature by tapping scribe, Will Beall (Gangster Squad). Clearly, after Disney and Marvel's The Avengers put a superheroic dent into 2012's box office, the studio behind the DC version would like to do the same. Beall has yet to turn in his draft, but the studio has shown strong faith in the screenwriter, having attached him to their reboot of Lethal Weapon and their remake of Logan's Run. The latter will reunite Gangster Squad's Ryan Gosling with his Drive director, Nicolas Winding Refn. Hit the jump for more on this exciting news for Justice League and to find out who is writing the Wonder Woman screenplay.
Variety reports that Warner Bros. is hush-hush on the production of Justice League and has yet to comment on the hire. A Justice League movie had been in the works until 2008 when the studio cited problems such as a lack of tax breaks and a dearth of writers (who were striking at the time) available to do a script rewrite. The previous attempt would have been directed by George Miller (Mad Max) from a script by Kieran and Michele Mulroney (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows). The film would have starred Adam Brody (Mr. and Mrs. Smith) as the Flash, Megan Gale (I Love You Too) as Wonder Woman and Armie Hammer (The Social Network) as Batman.
Current attempts at restoring DC Comics to film glory include The Flash feature, scripted by Marc Guggenheim and Michael Green (both of Green Lantern) for director Greg Berlanti (Life As We Know It) and Wonder Woman, reportedly being written by a fourth Green Lantern scribe, Michael Goldenberg, since Berlanti was also a writer on Green Lantern. In other words, Warner Bros. is splitting four of its writers who were involved with one of their most underwhelming productions and giving them the reigns of two additional features in order to build up to a Justice League release. I'm pulling for the dark horse of Beall to somehow pull it all together.

Before the party, there's the vote.
This is Carey Mulligan in London on the set of the new film Suffragette, in which she plays Maude, "a foot soldier of the early feminist movement". Well, I guess it's not a rom-com. Then again, rom-coms aren't exactly Carey's jam. Meryl Streep has a part in the film too – as Emmeline Pankhurst. So here's a film that'll pass the Bechdel Test. And you know what that means – no one's going to see it!
Less than a hundred years ago, women were not allowed to vote. And, perhaps worse, some of the most vocal activists were forced underground to escape persecution by the assholes who were trying to silence them. Women can vote now…but the question remains: are women being fairly represented? It's a story worth telling. It's a story worth seeing. And with Meryl, Carey, Helena Bonham Carter, and Anne-Marie Duff all starring, that's just a really great bonus.

An Interview with Eric Carle
Children's book author and illustrator
Forty years ago, "in the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf." It hatched, of course, into The Very Hungry Caterpillar, a well-loved children's book that has sold more than 12 million copies in more than 20 languages. Its author and artist, Eric Carle, celebrated its 40th anniversary and his own 80th birthday this year.

Tell us about the teachers in your life who made a difference.
You know I was born in Syracuse, New York, and I had a wonderful, first-class kindergarten teacher who discovered my love for art. She called in my mother and emphasized that they should nurture that talent. That was a very important message.
We went to Germany when I was six and I started school there, too. The first four years I don't remember at all in terms of art, except that it was small sheets of paper. In Syracuse, we had large sheets. In Germany, we had small sheets, a hard pencil, a rule and "don't make any mistakes!" that kind of thing.
In high school, I had a wonderful teacher. This was during the Nazi time, but this wonderful teacher introduced me to so-called 'degenerate' art -- Impressionistic, abstract, that kind of thing. We did that secretly because it was forbidden to show it. That made the biggest impact on me.
If you were an art teacher, what would your class look like?
When I was an art student, we painted colorful paints, all kinds of colors on sheets of paper, and that way we accumulated a nice collection of color. Then we tore out shapes, cut out shapes, made collages. It's not so important that right away you go ahead and do houses and animals. The children could make birds or elephants, if they like, but I'm not saying to do anything. If you just do abstract shapes and squares and you play with them, it would be a wonderful thing.
Some schools I've been to, they collect all kinds of discarded things -- wools and papers and sticks and stones. They make collages out of that and I think that's wonderful, rather than sitting a child down and saying, "Now draw a tree!" Maybe the child is not in the mood to draw a tree!
You've been living with this little caterpillar for 40 years! Tell us what you think about the little guy now -- and why do you imagine he has been such a popular icon for children?
I don't give it much thought really! It's something I did, one of my books… I feel like children identify with [this] small, insignificant, ugly, little caterpillar -- because we are born little and ugly and helpless. [But then we grow up. And we have our own families and our own homes.] And that is the message of the caterpillar, to grow from an insignificant ugly thing into a beautiful butterfly flying into the world. It's hope and encouragement. I think that's what's behind the caterpillar.
It's a wonderful message, isn't it?

Barry Goldwater, photographer
I was reminded this week that former Sen. Barry Goldwater was also a master photographer.
Also, a nice article in the Casper, WY paper about friend Chuck Kimmerle's exhibit. Chuck moved to Wyoming because his partner Brenda got a good job there. We all wondered what would happen to his superb landscape photography, which up to that point was entirely attuned to the Great Plains.
Chuck adjusted, and is thriving.
What the article and most reviews of Chuck's work miss is the sense of humor I find in his work. Maybe I am perverse, but when I see virtuosity like Chuck's; when I see him turn a commonplace scene into something transcendant, I laugh out loud. It is the same laugh that comes when I hear Vladamir Horowitz take a commonplace piano piece and make it sizzle like a drop of water on a hot griddle.
Armed with my camera, I headed north to Payson, AZ today. The scenery was beautiful, but I wasn't inspired to photograph. Payson is up on what they call "the rim." In other words, it is at 6,000 elevation. The saguaro are replaced by juniper and pine. The mountains are dusted with snow.
I found a Thai restaurant there that served a good lunch, then turned around and came back to Gold Canyon. Temperature? 76 degrees F.
I do check on MN temperatures and I do know what you are going through. This is when I relish every moment in the desert.

Ares Tavor Review
+ Sturdy build
+ Nice ambidextrous design
+ Great air seal due to hop-up design
+ Compact and accurate
+ Great range
+ Rate of fire
+ Battery housing (9.6v mini + 11.1v lipo)
+ Full Trademarks
+ Realistic weight and finish
- Not easy to access the gearbox
- MARS sight not perfect
- Gearbox is unique, uncharted territory for some users
- Accessing motor requires gearbox disassembly
A compact yet accurate AEG with realistic feel and looks. Versatile weapon system to use due to its ambidextrous design and takes STANAG mags which are readily available. Can easily change the MARS sight into other aiming devices of your choice without any heavy modifications.
The Tavor rifle, aka TAR21 (Tavor automatic rifle for the 21st century) originates from Israel made by IMI (now privately owned by IWI) and has been a standard issue rifle for Givati and Golanibrigades in the IDF since 2006 and 2008 respectively. It is designed to eventually replace the long serving M16, AR15 and the Galilrifles in Israel. The general aesthetics of this gun is instantly recognized by its modern looks, sharing all of its modern features, which has proven to be useful in previous designs like the French FAMAS, Croatian VHS, Austrian AUG, British SA80 and many others.
Due to its bullpup layout, lightweight polymer housing, integral MARS sight, compatibility with STANAG magazines,backup iron sights as well as its completely modular design allowing several different configurations. This gives this Tavor rifle the versatility that would benefit the soldier on the battlefields today from a compact CTAR version with a shorter barrel for close encounters, the STAR version for the designated marksman and various others that suit the various roles of an infantry. Its design also enables left and right handed users to use the rifle since the charging handle, ejection port, fire selector as well as the magazine release latch are fully ambidextrous. Although some require partial disassembly in order to convert the working mechanism on the opposite side, this conversion does not require a trip to your gunsmith to resolve.
With such versatility without sacrificing functionality, it's no surprise that this rifle has proved to be popular amongst the Israeli forces as well as various other countries too. So far, 12 countries are known to have already purchased or in the process of having the addition of the Tavorin their arsenal.
Initial impressions.
The ARES Tar21 comes in a box, no surprises there. Although it's nice to see a laser logo on the box stating it's an officially licensed product by IWI and ARES has paid its license duty with Cybergun, adds a nice touch. The box also has an integral carry handle so if you still need to acquire a gun bag or case, the box can temporarily serve as your gun case for now but please remember your local laws with regards to publically displaying articles that may be suspicious. In this case, the various Tavor pictures printed all around the box.
Upon opening the box, you will see your AEG nicely packed into the foam padding firmly securing the AEG, the magazine and loading rod in its own cavities. This drastically minimizes the chance of angry postal workers from damaging your gun. You will also notice a tag attached to the Tavor, it has a manufacturer's tag stating it has been tested, showing the average muzzle velocity, ambient temperature and the date of testing. Although ARES has previously been testing these products before dispatching, ARES has definitely stepped up the game and paid attention to detail and attaching individual tested tags on each AEG they dispatch.
The construction and finish on the AEG in general is also of a fine quality where the mold lines are not any worse than the real steel version and where there are joints or areas for its modular platforms, you cannot see any gaps or dimensional mismatch on the joints. Due to its one piece receiver design, it also offers a sturdy platform and definitely feels sturdy to hold, making no creaking noises or wobbles on any parts. Although if you were to compare the finish of the ARES with a real steel Tavor, you will notice that the finish on the real steel equivalent is not as matte as the ARES version. Nonetheless, ARES still replicates this finish pretty well as the materials used on the ARES also replicates the parts seen on the real steel version, so what you see on the real steel that is metal will also be metal on the ARES version. With official licensing from IWI, it is no surprise that it will also have the IWI logo and trademarks on the receiver and to top that off, ARES has also given its unique serial number to every Tavor rifles they produce. So you?re guaranteed the serial number you get is only on the one you own, making your own Tavor that much more special. If you look closely however, you will find on the laser activation switch will have "Forever good int'l ltd tel:85226909441" imprinted on the surface of the switch. Although this is not likely to be noticed at all unless you specifically look into the small parts, this is probably the markings the manufacturer for that specific micro switch has added.
The features of this gun that makes this AEG truly special is towards the rear of the gun. Where you will notice the bolt release also functions as a spring tension release, prolonging the lifespan of your AEG spring as well as making dis assembly much more convenient. On that note, the gearbox also deserves a special mention. Not only can you access the back of the gearbox within the matter of seconds by removing one single pin on the butt plate, the motor alignment screw is right there for you to fine tune your motor alignment. Furthermore, the ARES Tavor has its own unique gearbox where it allows you to change your spring with a very short time only requiring access and slight dis assembly to the gun thanks to its quick release spring design.
The ARES Tavor chronos consistently at 350fps as expected from the values the testing tag shows. This is most likely due to the integrated hop up unit to the gearbox giving it excellent air seal. Having the ability to house a mini 9.6v battery in the cavity, the rate of fire is pleasingly high without it being too high to destroy your gearbox. If you do decide to increase its rate of fire, this can easily be accomplished by installing a mini 11.1v lipo battery in its battery compartment, it will be a tight fit and modifying it to a deans type connector is recommended for space reduction and better contacts for higher voltage.
Please note: When a 11.1v lipo battery is used, this will significantly increase the wear on your gearbox parts so if you intend to use a 11.1v lipo battery for this, consult your local gunsmith for advice. The accuracy of this gun is decent as it can produce a 3inch grouping at 15metres straight out of the box using .20g Madbull BB.
Firstly, you need to ensure the AEG is cleared and safe. Fire off a few single shots with the magazine removed, put the AEG on safe and disconnect the battery from the AEG.
The Tavor in a nutshell, is a highly ergonomic and combat effective rifle featuring all the new revisions on an assault rifle that would benefit a soldier of today. The AEG performs outstandingly well straight out of the box conforming to most of the fps sites around the world. With its integrated hop unit on the gearbox, this adds to the compression efficiency on the whole system minimizing air leak, so power consistency and shot groupings are not an issue at all. This AEG features potential to be even better with just a few minor modifications and the choices of mods are endless. For example, mounting a RIS rail where the MARS mounting point is to change to another optic of your choice. Mounting a rail on the other side of the cocking handle for accessories or even quickly transforming your Tavor into a high rate of fire monster by just replacing the standard 9.6v mini battery with a 11.1v mini lipo battery.
It has to be said that at a price for this AEG, although the MARS sight and laser combo can be disappointing for some people. This is a unique design from ARES with so many features in one package as well as being able to be used in a skirmish field without the absolute need to use the MARS sight making this a skirmish-practical weapon that stands out different to the others. It's already outweighed the bad elements of this package, which is the MARS sight. Even if it was not to be used as a skirmish weapon, but a plinking weapon or for reenactment or even as a collector's piece or wall hanger, the realism and quality does not let you down as the construction as well as its performance is absolutely top notch on this AEG. You have to get one to see how nice these weapons are.

Mustachioed movie maven Gene Shalit's May review of "Shrek Forever After" will be his last for the "Today" show.
The bushy-haired critic, 84, is leaving the NBC morning show after 40 years. The Shrek review was the last featured in his trademark "Critic's Corner."
"It's enough already," Shalit said in a statement.
U.S. & World
The show plans to air a salute to Shalit on Thursday. Executive producer Jim Bell says 40 years on the same show is "a feat unlikely to ever be matched."
Shalit said he isn't retiring, and that he'll do work on the Internet and in commercials.

pittsboronc.net is available
Whois result
This domain is available to register !
1. The domain is availableThe domain pittsboronc.net is available, this means that anybody can register the domain at this time. There may be plenty of reasons why this domain is not registered such as:
2. How do I register a domain name?There are many websites available through which you can register your domain name. A business offering domain name registration is called a 'registrar'. They allow you to search to see if the domain you would like is available. As the domain is no longer the property of someone else, you can register as of now with your favorite domain registrar.
Here's a list of the most popular domain registrars:
3. What does it mean to let a domain expire?When you register a domain name it is for a set period (atleast 1 year). This means that the domain is not necessarily yours forever but atleast for the year to come. Unless you renew your registration when it is due to expire, your website will become unavailable and any related email addresses will stop functioning.
There is always a grace period before the domain becomes publicly available again, so if you do accidentally let it expire you can usually reactivate it. However, if you leave it for too long there is always the chance that someone else will register the domain instead, making it unavailable to you.
