the pill thins the lining of the uterus to decrease menstrual bleeding, but can also thin the vaginal epithelium leading to dryness.As sex hormones, estrogens are produced in one tissue, the ovary. They are released into the blood stream, and have their effect on target tissues. Those target tissues have receptors specific for recognition of the estrogen. The estrogens effect on the target tissues is to produce specific tissue growth. Target tissues for estrogens include breast tissue, vaginal tissue, vulvar tissue, endometrial and uterine tissue. Other tissues reported to be target tissues for estrogen include bone, brain, and cardiovascular tissue.
Young women who are not on contraceptive medications have a very high level of estrogen. Women who are on contraceptive medications have a very low level of estrogen(NOTICE HOW IT SAYS LOW), for the intent of contraceptives is to suppress normal ovarian function and prevent ovulation, therefore preventing a possible pregnancy. As each woman normally ages, her level of estrogen declines yearly until menopause, where the ovary is depleted of all ovum, and all estrogen production ceases. "Perimenopause" is the ill-defined time frame before and after menopause. Perimenopause could more appropriately be termed "premenopause", for the estrogen levels for five to ten years before actual menopause (normally age 50) causes a host of signs and symptoms of inadequate estrogen in its target tissues. Perimenopause depression could be inadequate estrogen for its target brain tissue. Osteoporosis is the thinning of trabecular bone associated with genetic predisposition, low calcium intake, inadequate exercise, and low estrogen levels.

BarrowBought sram cassettes a few times and shift as slick as need be. Not the lightest but that's nothing considering
DomFairly hefty, but cheap n cheerful and perfect for my commuting mtb.
Mr BlackburnBought for my road bike to go with a compact crank. The 32T really helps with the hills and the ratios between sprockets are nicely spaced . Good alternative if considering swapping a compact for a triple. Seems to run better than the new HG50 it replaced to. Only downside is that its approx 50% heavier than the 12-27 HG50, but then it makes sense given the larger sprockets.
PhotoshedDoes what it says on the tin. Fitted it and completed the London Surrey 100- no problem.
Mr StonardI went for the 11 / 34 set this time. Very good. easy to fit with the right tools. Reliable and dependable gear changing.
Mr WilliamsExcellent value, bought as a direct replacement for original cassette. I got 6000km out of my old one so happy to buy another!
Mr BOULDERLong lasting well made sprocket set
Mr HaworthWorks with Shimano & SRAM set ups no problems, precise and great value for money.
Mr cobbI find sram drive train equipment better than shimano it never disapoints
Mr HarrisonGreat, hard-wearing cassette. A little bit heavier than some of the equivalent Shimano offerings, but I've always found these to last a lot longer.
Mr DavisGreat price and delivery, for a good workhorse cassette.
Mr OakleyUsed a couple of these cassettes. Had no problems with them and they have lasted as long as the stock shimano offering that was on my bike originally. Brilliant price so now just replace cassette with the chain rather than keep looking out for chain stretching more than 1%. Excellent service from Merlin
vmgscotGreat value and does the intended job
Mr BERTACOATTENDED ME PERFECTLY
Mr ElkinMy transmission has been rebuilt using this and the other parts I ordered at the same time, and my bike is running very well.
Mr EverettGreat price, delivered within two day fo a price that was 30p more than for a lightly used one on e-bay. Another Merlin Result - Love this website ;-) As for the cassette - it works. I have purchased this to go on some commuting wheels for an old & much loved Marin Mount Vision. I'll post back in a few moths if I have any problems, but I don't expect any with SRAM. 5 stars based on price paid, clearly it is an entry level cassette with a weight to match.
Mr WhiteExcellent - straight swap for the worn out one on my XTC. Last one did 1200 miles so hopefully this will follow suit.
Mr jankowskia repeat replacement component, ordered and received within one day- superb!
Mr whitlockbought this to go with the shimano wheels the same as fitted to my trek fuel
Mr CupitGood product at a great price, excellent service from Merlin as always
Mr JonesSuperd, fast delivery great price. What more can you want?
Ms PattonThe cassette is mainly one complete body which was going on a hope hub that had groove marks where the previous individual rings had bitten in to the splines. This cassette will give a much more even wear but the down side is it will be harder to clean than single rings.
Mr johnstonfast delivery and great price for a no nonsense cassette. cheers :)
Mr PowellA good affordable cassette. Not too heavy with a good service life. Used on my touring and mountainbikes. Can't go wrong if you are looking for a 9 speed cassette at this price!
Mr BryanDecent cassette at a very reasonable price.
Mr smigano complaints what so ever

Orioles overhaul strength and conditioning program
SARSASOTA, Fla.– The red shoes are a dead giveaway, the slow spread around an Orioles clubhouse proudly dominated with so much orange and black that you almost have to do a double take seeing them pop up in so many lockers this spring.
What they are, Adidas AdiPower Olympic weightlifting shoes, is less important than what they represent to an organization that has overhauled just about every facet of its operations in the last few years, including the addition of a strength-and-conditioning program unparalleled — and almost entirely foreign — throughout baseball.
"When you see a guy wearing those shoes, you know he's bought in," said Paul Cater, one of four strength-and-conditioning coaches — overseen by vice president of baseball operations Brady Anderson — who is working with the Orioles in Major League Spring Training. "It's a shift in culture, from what I understand. Every single person we've talked to said they've never had a better strength-and-conditioning program than this."
Gone are the days of bicep curls and running pole to pole, replaced by a state-of-the-art facility with mobility and yoga sessions, Olympic lifts, long jumps and handstands. Speed and power is king at Orioles camp, and on this particular spring afternoon, Jason Hammel is doing shoulder exercises with a band, outfielder Chris Dickerson is outside being timed in a 40-yard dash with speed traps set up — which he refers to as his "NFL Combine Day" — and Nick Markakis is doing cleans.
The workouts are efficient — none of the trio spends longer than 20 minutes on that given area — they are detailed — logged in daily folders that will go into each player's binder — and they are always overseen in small groups, often one-on-one. In Markakis' case, Anderson will record the lifts to critique and add it to a library he already has of the right fielder, whose personal weight room — along with several other players — Anderson helped set up this winter.
Welcome to the newly revamped strength-and-conditioning program in Baltimore, where the long-beleaguered franchise is fresh off its first playoff appearance in 15 years and finally ahead of the curve.
To read the rest of my feature on the Orioles' revamped strength and conditioning program, click here.
As is usually the case with a bigger story like this, I have some extra quotes and stuff I will pass along later with every member of the strength and conditioning staff I spoke with– Brady Anderson (who is technically vice president of baseball operations) Joe Hogarty, Ryo Naito, Paul Cater and Ryan Crotin– incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout the process. Below are some extra photos of the Orioles new facility and what they had worked with in the past.

Excellent column Britt! You always give us fans in-depth, very detailed and informative reporting on Orioles spring training. This particular report is exciting by giving us a rare view of the training and facilities the team use. I've already told my fellow spring training season ticket holders about your reporting which they follow religiously now. Thanks again and hope to see you Wednesday at the ticket holder Q&A and autograph event!
Really enjoy your blog. You give the reader so much insight into the workings of the Orioles. Thanks.
Great blog Britt – I love the behind the scenes coverage. Is the Sarasota facility at Ed Smith Stadium or the Buck O'Neil complex?
Britt, Apparently the Orioles bought some Kool-Aid. The dangers of Olympic lifting are fully researched. Even highly regarded Michigan State strength coach Ken Mannie does not allow his football players to do Olympic lifts because of the proven danger. How long will it take for the injuries to rack up? Did Ted Williams or Hank Aaron need strength training? No doubt also foolish for pitchers. http://www.pitching.com/blog/olympic-lifts-do-not-improve-velocity/
This excellent website certainly has all the information I wanted about this subject and didn't know who to

By Jeff Piorkowski
Rubble may not appear to be part of green building methods, but at the former PMX property, 1121 E. 260th St., that's exactly what it is.
The 80-plus-acre property is now owned by Ray Fogg Building Methods of Cleveland, which plans to turn it into an industrial park that could attract up to 1,000 new jobs.
Right now, the site is full of earth moving equipment and rubble.
"They're right on schedule," said Development Director Frank Pietravoia. "They're now going forward with the environmental cleanup.
"They have removed parts of the concrete slab of the former buildings with contaminants in them, and have taken those slabs to a landfill.
"Now they're removing the clean concrete slabs and putting them in a pile. They will then crush the concrete on-site to make gravel."
He said the gravel will be used to build new roads on the site, and for foundations of the new buildings.
With the economy problematic, the city is happy the initial stages of the project are well financed. Fogg last year was awarded a $5-million Ohio Job Ready Site Grant, and a Cuyahoga County $1 million brownfield environmental cleanup grant.
But the economy could slow the process of attracting industry willing to build on and operate at the site, which is serviced by two railway lines.
Plans now call for one road within the site that will serve as many as 14 parcels at what was originally the site of Chase Brass & Copper. Plans can be changed, however, if, for example, one huge user wants the entire property.
Ray Fogg President Mike Merle said, "We may see a project by the end of the year. We could commit to someone right now and have it built by the end of the year."
The economy has prevented a solid deal, although Merle said, "There is some interest now. Our marketing efforts are being noticed. You may have heard our commercials about this property on WTAM (1100-AM radio)."
Merle said just before the economy plunged late last fall, his company had a lot more interest from potential builders. They have all since gone elsewhere.
"Industrial builders aren't like other builders," Merle said. "If land is not available, they find something else and build right away. They can't wait."
Merle said Fogg expects the work on the road to begin in about two weeks. In addition, workers will lay infrastructure, including sewers and waterlines. The road should be paved in September.
When the economy improves, Pietravoia said, "We think this site will market faster because of the state's backing of this project."

Another seven days and Rob's been at One Big Weekend with Westwood in sunny Swindon...
So my festival season kicked off with Radio 1's Big Weekend in Swindon. Ok so it finishes at 9pm and there's no camping but it felt very much like a proper festival and after 5 years of playing the Outdoor Stage this was my favourite by a long straw. Westwood opened proceedings with some great banter 'put up hands up if you're wearing underarm deodorant' and my Welsh comrade Huw Stephens set the scene perfectly with some quality indie and drum & bass before I unleashed a typically eclectic energetic hour long set with bonus microphone action from yours truly bellowing 'come on sunny Swindon' into the mic every other record and getting the hands in the air treatment. A beautiful afternoon only topped off by an incredible Dizzee Rascal performance joined by special guest and green tracksuit sporting Calvin Harris. It's gonna be Dizzee's year at the festies with an on fire live show and new single Bonkers surely going for number one all summer! My other bet on best act of the 2009 festies is Florence and The Machine. Just delivered an amazing album and smashed it at Big Weekend with a full on live set and then a cute acoustic show complete with mini piano and mini harp. A vision in glittery silver!
I'm hoping to head off to the Wood festival this Saturday, put on by the good folk behind Truck with some great green credentials and no bullshit about being carbon neutral as so many promoters seem to be boasting. Just a good old fashioned wood fired party with a great crowd out in the open. Also watch out for some forward thinking news from the Association Of Independent Festivals and download my latest podcast from Wednesday at www.sundaybestpodcast.com which is a very haphazard A-Z of Festivals.
Toodle pip!

Plush Nursing Pets by Manhattan Toy
Nursing Nina the cat, Nursing Nana the dog and Nursing Nuna the pig are plush mothers from Manhattan Toy.
Each mama has three plush babies which latch with magnets beneath the fabric. The mothers are about 13 inches long and have paws weighted by bean bags. The toys are rated for 3-year-olds and up.
I was surprised when I found these yesterday at a toy store. Cute? Absolutely. Would I buy one for my daughter? Maybe if one of our cats were pregnant. Maybe if I didn't believe in neutering and spaying pets to limit the population of unwanted, abandoned animals. Give my daughter a feral momma cat whose kitties are doomed? Nah.
At least Nursing Nuna the momma pig gets a reprieve. Piglets won't go unwanted so long as society considers them tasty.

The cold of winter is out in full force in Hamilton County as an arctic air mass continues to create subzero temperatures and strong wind chills.
A wind chill advisory from the National Weather Service is expected to remain in effect until noon today. While this surge of extreme cold may pass soon, the winter season is here to stay. With that in mind, local officials say it's important to prepare when facing extreme colds.
Hamilton County Public Health Director Shelby Kroona said the most important thing for people to understand is how quickly their skin can be damaged by frostbite.
"When it's this cold, it's less than five minutes," Kroona said. "Five minutes might sound like a long time, but it really isn't."
The signs of frostbite include the loss of feeling and white or pale appearance of extremities. Kroona said a common form of warming up in the cold by rubbing ones hands together can lead to tissue damage in the cold. She said those in the cold should cover their hands or put them under their armpits to heat them up.
Kroona also said people should think about how they can limit their time in the cold, such as starting their car and going back inside while it warms up. Cars should also contain blankets and an emergency kit. Travel is also safer during the daylight hours, Kroona said.
Pets should also be considered during the cold. Kroona said the same precautions people take should apply to pets as well. Limiting their time outside to just a couple minutes at a time and cover their paws.
Webster City Police Chief Brian Hughes said the department does file charges against dog owners in certain cases related to leaving them outside for extended periods in the cold.
"I can't think of any excuse for that," Hughes said.
Hughes also said that the elderly are more at risk in the cold. He asked that neighbors of the elderly help them with outdoor tasks such as shoveling snow or unloading groceries to help out in the community.
Those who go out and run in the cold should also have a cell phone in case they are injured while working out, Hughes said.

NORTH LITTLE ROCK, AR - The Thanksgiving holiday will be a better one for some local families thanks to a couple of organizations.
The North Little Rock Police Department (NLRPD) along with the Kiwanis Club Of North Little Rock teamed up today to deliver 150 food baskets to families in the North Little Rock area.
The Kiwanis Club members first met at the Neighborhood Market in Sherwood to start filling the baskets for delivery. Ten members of the NLRPD, along with Police Chief Mike Davis then dropped by to join and start delivering the baskets to local families.
For the past 24 years, the Kiwanis Club of North Little Rock has delivered close to 5,000 holiday dinners to families in the community who are struggling to keep food on the table. This year the club was very excited to partner with the NLRPD to the meal baskets.
The Kiwanis International mission statement is "Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world one child and one community at a time."
"We feel that this great project is a great example of what our mission statement means" says Club President Haskell Anderson.
The Kiwanis Club of North Little Rock is a vibrant civic club that is celebrating 65 years of serving the city of North Little Rock.

Tasting Notes
Zinfandel is all about fruit and spice - red-fruit, black-fruit and everything nice, and we have been attempting to incrementally add elegance and refinement. We have found that by cleverly doing virtually nothing, (in an enlightened Taoist way , we have been able to preserve more fruit in our zin as well as more depth and complexity. What is significant about this wine is its solidity; this is a wine of substance, a densely packed chocolate cherry, with all sorts of complex surprises yet to unfold.

A Youngsville man was bound over for court on seven of eight drug-related charges by District Magistrate Laura Bauer on Wednesday morning following a preliminary hearing.
Matthew Alan Esterbrook, 2150 Murray Hill Rd., Youngsville, was charged with a first-degree felony of operating a methamphetamine laboratory and illegal dumping of methamphetamine waste, a first-degree felony of conspiracy to commit same, an ungraded felony of possession of liquefied ammonia gas, precursors and chemicals; an ungraded felony of possession with intent to manufacture or deliver, a third-degree felony of endangering the welfare of children, a first-degree misdemeanor of corruption of minors and 18 counts of a second-degree misdemeanor of recklessly endangering another person.
Conewango Township Chief of Police Jason Peters testified that he received a call from a Pennsylvania State parole officer and Warren County Children and Youth Services that there was a methamphetamine laboratory at 74 Allegheny Village.
He also said that Warren County Adult Probation had requested assistance in making contact with Makia Haines, who lives at that address, after she failed to show up for a probation meeting.
After questioning by Warren County District Attorney Rob Greene, Peters said no one answered the door at that residence on March 26, and he and Lt. Randy Carlson of the township police department went around back and observed a male on the back porch. He said the male then re-entered the apartment, locked a sliding glass door and ran upstairs.
Peters said the law allows probation to enter the residence of someone on probation if no one answers the door and if it can be determined that someone is actually inside.
He said that upon entering, they called out Haines, who came downstairs with a three-year-old child, then two males Esterbrook and George Edward Heatherdale also came downstairs.
After the individuals came down, Peters said said the officers cleared the rest of the apartment to insure safety and make sure no one else was present.
He testified that he found glass jars, filters and discolored water in the first bedroom at the top of the steps, a likely meth lab, and a backpack containing a medical identification card belonging to Esterbrook and various items for a meth lab.
Greene asked Peters if he had training about meth labs, and Peters said he had participated in a MERIT program to recognize the labs.
He said that he obtained a search warrant to secure the residence and contacted the state police CLRT (Clandestine Recovery Team).
When Greene asked about residents in the other apartments in the building, Peters said there were 18.
Greene asked, "Were the 18 endangered?"
"Absolutely," Peters replied.
He explained the chemicals and gases were dangerous, and could cause an explosion.
He testified that there was a playground approximately 60 feet from the apartment's back door, and in addition to the three-year old child, there were nine other minors living in the building.
Esterbrook's lawyer, Todd Woodin, then cross-examined Peters.
"Did probation make a specific request for you to assist them?" he asked.
"Yes," Peters replied.
Woodin asked how he knew about the lab, and Peters said a state parolee told parole officer Paul Gray and that Warren County Children and Youth had received an anonymous tip on its Child Line.
When asked how they gained access to the apartment, Peters said that they had contacted the Warren County Housing Authority, and a maintenance man was there with a key to avoid damaging the door.
Woodin asked him if finding Haines completed the mission he was asked to perform by probation, and Peters said, "No."
Woodin asked Peters if he had a specific purpose for going upstairs, and Peters replied, "To see if anyone else was up there."
"Did probation ask you to go upstairs?" Woodin asked.
"No, they did not," Peters answered.
Asked about what he found upstairs, Peters said that he found lab paraphernalia in one room and other drug paraphernalia in another. He said he believed the state police CLRT team took custody of 49 items.
When asked if he had received any test results from the state police, Peters said no.
Woodin then asked about statements made by Esterbrook, and he replied that Esterbrook said, "I do what I do in that room, and nobody else comes in," although Peters testified that Esterbrook told another officer he was only visiting his girlfriend (Haines) and denied any meth involvement. Peters said that Esterbrook claimed Haines was using bath salts and was "speeding."
Peters noted that the statements were recorded on audio and video at the state police barracks.
Woodin asked him if Brett Bailor, a forensic scientist with the CLRT, identified certain items taken into custody were related to the manufacture of meth, and Peters said yes.
Woodin then closed, saying that the commonwealth had not made its case for count five, hindering the apprehension of Heatherdale.
"They were simply in the same place at the same time, in a place that was not (Esterbrook's) residence," he said.
He also said, "There is no evidence whatsoever that a child was corrupted."
Greene countered that they definitely were concealing Heatherdale, and added, "The three-year-old was there all the time this was going on." He said both arguments were prima facie, meaning that the matter appears to be evident from the facts.
Bauer then bound Easterbrook over for court on all charges except count five.

April 5, 2012
I make a lot of canvas totes, rather, I dress up a lot of canvas totes. It's been an obsession of mine for a couple of years now. And yes, I do use them all. I give them away as gifts, use them as gift bags, use them as grocery bags, overnight bags for the kids, beach bags, really the possibilities are endless. Here are 4 of my favorite neon inspired DIY tote bags that can all be made in less than 15 minutes (if you don't count the drying time). I love the look of watercolors, so to achieve this bag I first practiced creating a simple gradation of colors on artist paper. I liked the blue and green color combo the best, and gave it a beige base. Brush on your fabric paint in light strokes, making sure not to saturate the color so it's a bit translucent, and then layer on your next color so they overlap.
I love how sweet and simple this bow bag came out. Print up a pdf of a bow shape you like (I always just google the shape I'm looking for with the search term silhouette – so 'bow silhouette'). You're going to do a reverse stencil here, so iron on your bow, and then paint around it. Peel off the bow once dry.
The painting of this bag is super easy. Just add a strip of painters tape and paint the bottom half (I did paint both sides and underneath too to give it a more sophisticated look). I went a step further and added leather straps by taking two inexpensive leather belts from H&M, cutting them to the desired length, and then sew on in place of where the canvas straps were. Make sure to use a leather needle in your machine.
Using the same technique as I used in my t-shirt yesterday, cut out your desired pattern onto your freezer paper, iron on, and then paint in. Let dry and peel off.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Why is Mayor Infeld rushing University Heights Council to vote transferring total authority to her to close down our city's fire and emergency medical services by March 4?
One resident used the word "stampede" at last week's council meeting to describe Infeld's speed to get 100 percent decision-making authority.
Voters require transparent objective documentation showing why elimination of our fire and EMS benefits us. Documentation, made public only a few weeks ago, shows this is not the merger Infeld represented it to be.
I have requested each council member to vote against authorization for Infeld to proceed. I urge you to do the same.
At this point in time, the power to close down our fire and EMS resides with council. It is imperative council not underestimate their role.
Other councils in area cities, according to Shaker Heights Mayor Leiken, stopped "at the study stage" in their "merger" investigations.
Council's vote will determine the dismantling of our safety forces. We expect services commensurate with the taxes we devote for those services.
Council members are to only represent our best interests and should be aware they will have to account to the voters.

For immediate release: February 1, 2010
Metro to host series of emergency response exercises
Drills to test regional response to Metro-related incidents
A series of three emergency response exercises involving simulations of explosions and simulated gunfire in the Metro system will take place this month, and will enable Metro and its regional partners to test and practice the multi-jurisdictional coordination and response needed to mitigate such incidents.
The exercises, scheduled for Feb. 12, 13 and 24, will bring together participants from local law enforcement, fire and emergency medical services departments, federal agencies and multiple departments within Metro. The tactical drills and subsequent tabletop exercise will help reinforce the region's strategy for responding to a Metro-related incident.
"Metro provides an essential service in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia, and ensuring the safety and security of our riders and employees while keeping our trains and buses running smoothly is at the heart of our mission," said Metro Transit Police Acting Chief Jeff Delinski.
"It's an unfortunate reality that we face the unknown risks, either natural or manmade. Metro and area emergency responders need to be prepared to respond to any form of terrorist attack or other crisis that would impact Metro's ability to provide essential transportation services in the National Capital Region. It's critical to have the support and coordination of local and federal agencies that would simultaneously respond to a large-scale crisis occurring on Metro," Delinski said.
Metro and its regional partners designed three tactical exercises to test and practice each agency's respective roles and responsibilities. The first drill takes place on Friday, Feb. 12, in the parking lot at RFK Stadium. The scenario simulates an explosion on a Metrobus and an explosive found on a second Metrobus. The second exercise on Saturday, Feb. 13, entails an explosion on a Metrorail train in the tunnel between the Rosslyn and Foggy Bottom-GWU Metrorail stations. The final tactical drill takes place Wednesday, Feb. 24, where active shooters are reported at the Friendship Heights Metrorail station.
External agencies participating in exercises include police, fire and emergency medical services departments from Arlington County, the City of Alexandria, Washington, D.C., Fairfax County, Prince Georges' County, Montgomery County, Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Capital Area American Red Cross. Metro's Office of Emergency Management has been coordinating with participants from the transit agency, including the Transit Police, Safety, Metrobus and Metrorail departments.
"We've brought together a great team of partners from throughout Metro and the region on this important initiative," said Metro Director of Emergency Management Peter LaPorte. "It's important for us to practice and test what we would do in an emergency situation, build on best practices and what works, and find solutions to things we can do better."
The tactical exercises will be followed by two tabletop drills with emergency managers and senior leadership executives.
The emergency response exercises are funded through a $1.2 million U.S. Department of Homeland Security Urban Area Security Initiative grant. The grant was obtained by the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments Fire Chiefs and is managed by the Arlington County Fire Department.

text: Hello all, first off I am a complete reloading newbie. I have been wanting to get into reloading for quite some time. Unfortunately, I think I waited too long as the supplies are few and far between. I need some help picking out what bullets to purchase to reload 45 ACP. Let it be known, that Im not planning on reloading until I can read a few books, and ask some more questions. I tried all the bookstores, gunshops etc just trying to find manuals,,all out. So, I ordered a few and am waiting on them to get here. I also just ordered a lee classic press kit, 505 rcbs scale, tumbler, etc. All i really need is powder,primers, and bullets. I have about 1k once fired brass cases to get started on. I shoot only 45s, which consist of a few xd's, a kimber 1911, and an old smith 25-2 target revolver. I need to know what types of bullets will feed ok in the autos. I have no problem using lead as far as health is concerned. I have just "been told" that a semi wad cutter wont feed very good in a 1911. So, should I just order some round nose lead, or plated round nose in 200 or 230 grain? I was looking at these http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=115811, http://www.missouribullet.com/details.php?prodId=59&category=5&secondary=13&keywords=, or these http://www.berrysmfg.com/57.php I know this is probably elementary and im sorry, but I cant even read up on it as no one has anything in stock!! Also, about the powder. I have heard power pistol is a good powder. As you can tell I have no idea, but Im wanting to order this stuff as most of its backordered. If i can get it "on the way" I can read up on it and ask questions while waiting. thanks for reading. matt

EAST LANSING -- Michigan State coach Tom Izzo famously ran practice drills with his players wearing football pads, and current team members recently put on full Spartans football uniforms for a promotional video.
The "Spartans Stand Together" video was played before and during the football team's season opener Friday at Spartan Stadium, featuring guard Branden Dawson sacking a quarterback, celebrating with a jump shot motion, and taking off his helmet to reveal himself.
The video used cross-branding by featuring every Michigan State basketball player in uniform, with many of them wearing their current jersey numbers.
"This fall it's football season," according to the video's message. "Basketball season begins November 8."
The Spartans, who were ranked the No. 1 team in the nation this preseason by Lindy's Sports, are not unfamiliar with football.
Guards Gary Harris and Denzel Valentine along with forwards Kenny Kaminski and Gavin Schilling are among the players who have high school football experience. Izzo is known to be fond of recruiting such two-sport athletes.
Valentine at one time played quarterback for Lansing Sexton High School's freshman team.
"I shoulda suited up for last nights game!!" Valentine tweeted.

The New Year's Eve ball drop in Times Square is less than an hour away, but in today's 24-hour news cycle, the unstoppable force that is a breaking story cannot be contained.
Late Tuesday night, news broke on Twitter via ESPN NFL insiders Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen that Penn State football coach Bill O'Brien had reached an agreement to become the new head coach of the Houston Texans.
O'Brien, a hot commodity in the coaching world after helping to steady the Nittany Lions football program following the death of Joe Paterno and the fallout of Jerry Sandusky's child sex abuse scandal, had been connected to the Texans by a growing number of sources since the firing of former Houston coach Gary Kubiak earlier this month.
What does this have to do with the University of Massachusetts football team, do you ask? Quite a bit, actually.
While most New England residents probably remember O'Brien from his stint as the Patriots' offensive coordinator and quarterbacks/wide receivers coach from 2007-11, his northeast coaching roots actually date back a bit further – to when he was the inside linebackers coach at Brown University under Mark Whipple.
Yes, the very same Mark Whipple who led UMass to the 1998 Division I-AA national championship and is now reportedly one of the leading candidates to return to Amherst to replace the recently fired Charley Molnar.
Though their time at Brown together was brief – O'Brien left the next season to begin a lengthy career at Georgia Tech – the two have remained friends. In fact, Whipple's son Austin walked on as a freshman quarterback at Penn State just this past season.
Naturally, all of this begs the question – will O'Brien want to bring his old pal Whipple down to Houston as part of his new coaching staff? It's definitely something to consider.
Whipple spent the 2013 out of coaching after he and the entirety of Pat Shumur's Cleveland Browns staff were fired following the 2012 season, but he has sizable NFL experience. He spent three years as the quarterbacks coach with the Pittsburgh Steelers (2004-06) – winning a Super Bowl ring along the way – before moving on to the Philadelphia Eagles as an offensive assistant (2007-08). He then wound up in Cleveland in 2011 after a two-year stint at the University of Miami (FL).
So, there's some fit there. Would O'Brien put in a call to Whipple now that he's back on the NFL scene? I wouldn't be surprised, and there are some rumblings that it will happen.
That, of course, would throw a major wrench in the coaching search plans for UMass athletic director John McCutcheon, who announced Tuesday the creation of a 12-member search committee to aid in the hiring process.
By all accounts, there is a mutual interest for Whipple to return to Amherst and try clean up the program's Football Bowl Subdivision mess, but it might be difficult for the 56-year-old to turn down another opportunity in the game's highest level of play.
At the very least, an already interesting situation just got a little more complex.

NEW YORK Weakened credit profiles and the sustained U.S. recession continue to make access to capital difficult and more expensive for restaurant companies, a new report from Fitch Ratings said.

I am interested in getting my first Android based Tablet. (Apple TOO EXPENSIVE)
Most likely one running an older version of Android as it is cheaper.
Most these are running 2.0 or 2.2 Froyo.
From what I am reading Skype won't work on most!
This concerns me.
Exactly what Android OS version will Skype wor,k on a Tablet?

As a paying customer, I just wish Skype would start to separate Android tablets from Android phones and realize their growth potential. Every try to plug in a laptop at Starbucks these days, they have removed most of the plugs in their stores or disabled them in many of their locations. The longer battery life/lighter weight makes Android tablets ideal for such situations; typing into a tablet is hard enough- try composing a few pages on an iphone.
Skype has yet to deliver a good working version for my Viewsonic Android tablet. The voice only Beta versions work for a while but then they stop working which makes them unreliable at best.
Android tabblets are a growth area that Skype needs to address directly. Please do so soon before Google does and takes our payments to their service.

Claudius says 2.3 or later, but my Xoom with 3.2 doesn't work with video calls, it worked with Skype version 184.108.40.206 but the last two updates have killed it. And what I mean by that is if you start a video call you can see yourself, but as soon as the other person answers both videos go black and you can't hang up, you have to litrally kill the application.
So it may work on 2.3 and later just not Xoom?

JonKong: Did you try deleting the App's Appdata via Android Settings -> Apps? Then restart the device and try Skype again. We have a Xoom in house for testing and it does videocalling all fine.
Can you please also specify which Motorola Xoom hardware version your are using? And did you check if you can upgrade your Android to 4.0 "Icecream Sandwich"? It should be available for the Xoom since January.

I have related issue with my new ASUS Transformer. I uploaded the app and it works fine with a headset/mic plugged into the port. However, there are no mic settings on the Skype App that I could find to allow me to use the onboard microphone built into the Transformer. Is this coming in a newer version of the app?

Brewers to sign Lohse
News that the Brewers were on the verge of adding a free agent from a fierce division rival was met with glee in Milwaukee's Spring Training clubhouse on Monday, when word spread that former Cardinals starter Kyle Lohse had agreed to a multi-year contract. Lohse was expected at Maryvale Baseball Park after 10 a.m. Arizona time for a physical exam.
The Cardinals, who would get Draft compensation for losing Lohse, did not confirm the deal. Neither did the Brewers, who will surrender the 17th overall selection in the Draft when the deal is official. Top Milwaukee officials were in the middle of a staff-wide meeting when MLB Network's Jon Heyman broke the news. After that meeting, general manager Doug Melvin indicated he expected to have news to share after lunch.
"I think everybody was trying to find a high note leaving spring," said Brewers first baseman Corey Hart. "You're looking for a spark. This is definitely a spark. I think everybody in here was hoping they would get an established pitcher like that."
Lohse, 34 years old, went 16-3 with a 2.86 ERA for the Cardinals last season, numbers that added up to a seventh-place standing in the National League's Cy Young balloting. Lohse pitched to a 55-35 record and a 3.90 ERA in 137 games for St. Louis over the last five seasons.
He has been throwing simulated games in nearby Scottsdale, Ariz., so Lohse should not need much more time to be ready for the regular season. His arrival would give the Brewers some much-needed experience behind Opening Day starter Yovani Gallardo, pushing Marco Estrada, Wily Peralta, Chris Narveson and Mike Fiers down the depth chart.
Lohse, a former 28th-round draftee, has gone 6-8 with a 4.44 ERA in 22 career appearances against the Brewers, and he spent some time in the NL Central with Cincinnati (in 2006 and 2007). Lohse, for his career, has racked up a 118-109 record with a 4.45 ERA in 118 games.
The Brewers will give up their first 2013 Draft pick — No. 17 overall, which, in 2012, was worth $2 million — to sign Lohse. Their first pick will be No. 54.
The Cardinals will receive a comp pick — No. 28 overall, which, in 2012, was worth $1.65 million. They'll have the No. 19 and 28 picks.

NFL To Change Its Marijuana Policy, Reduce Suspensions And Raise THC Threshold
Category: News | Posted on Wed, May, 14th 2014 by THCFinder
ESPN reports that the NFL will re-examine and likely alter its out-dated marijuana policy after a rash of off-season incidents, suspensions, and increasing pressure to make a much needed change. The announcement comes just days after Josh Gordon's alleged season-long suspension for testing positive for weed.
According to ESPN's source, the league will finally admit its antiquated policy needs to evolve with the times, as even the "WADA (Wold Anti-Doping Agency) has a higher threshold for a positive test than the NFL currently does."
So the NFL will increase the threshold for a positive cannabis test (no exact number just yet)-meaning if you smoked weed a month ago, you're unlikely to have enough THC in your system to fail a test.
The other major change means that in the future, should a player test positive, he won't face a season-long ban for weed. The report does not state what the reduced bans (if any) and scales of punishment would be.
Unfortunately, the policy won't be a retroactive one, meaning Gordon still likely faces an (absurd) 8-16 game ban, as does Will Hill of the New York Giants. And it won't reimburse players like Von Miller, Brandon Browner, and countless others who've lost paychecks for smoking pot over the years.
While a modest compromise-and one that won't offer any solace to Browns fans-it's a significant step for both the NFL and professional sports. The media whirlwind and pressure from activists around the country are forcing the NFL to look in a mirror and utilize some form of common sense.
Hopefully-and certainly one day-that common sense will lead the NFL to allowing medical marijuana, and completely stop testing for weed.
If a player wants to medicate his aches and pains with a high CBD strain (like Harlequin) opposed to Oxycontin, that should be his choice-not the NFL's. And the Kush choice just also happens to be the far safer, healthier, and logical choice.

DIY Cannabis Balm
Category: Culture | Posted on Wed, May, 14th 2014 by THCFinder
Cannabis can be great for smoking but it can also be great for assisting with skin problems like eczema, severe dry skin, and uneven skin tone. While some people have a lot of trouble finding these products, others have been generous enough to share their methods on the web, providing us with a very basic recipe that pretty much anyone can make! The following recipe will give you a great cannabalm that will improve your skin and leave you feeling refreshed!
What You'll Need;
1.0oz liquid vegetable glycerin
.3oz essential oil of your preference
24.0 oz distilled H2O
1.2oz cosmetic grade stearic acid
1.2oz emusifying wax
.3oz germaben
4.0oz strong cannabis oil or fat
Small amount of menthol crystals (optional but will do a sunburn wonders if applied!)
Take all of the ingredients with the exception of the menthol crystals (if you choose to add them) and the essential oils and put them in to a double boiler that you have set up (remember the double boiler?). Whisk them together until they're blended together very well. The mixture should be creamy in texture. Once everything is blended, you can add in the last two ingredients if you want to. While the substance is still warm, pour it in to bottles. This recipe will give you 32oz of lotion. Trust me, using this on your skin will keep you moisturized, fresh smelling, and free of the dangerous chemicals that some lotion companies use!
Northern Lights Weed
Category: Nugs | Posted on Tue, May, 13th 2014 by THCFinder
Northern Lights is renowned for its ability to be grown very easily. The strain's reputation also comes from the fact that it has won competitions such as the Cannabis Cup. The #5 strain was first entered into competition 1989 when several seeds were mailed from the U.S.A. to Amsterdam. The strain quickly dominated the Cannabis Cup, winning in 1989, 1998, and again in 2009. It is a cross of Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa.
Could medical marijuana be a 7-year-old's cure?
Category: Medical Marijuana | Posted on Tue, May, 13th 2014 by THCFinder
PITTSFORD, Vt. —A Vermont mother believes medical marijuana could be the remedy her daughter, who suffers from epilepsy, needs to stop seizing.
Seven-year-old Lexi's beaming smile suggests she is just like every other little girl.
"She was born fine," said mother, Allison Rodgers. "She was born the day before her due date and there were no issues."
But at 18 months, things changed. Allison found Lexi with a 103-degree fever. She was suffering from a grand mal seizure.
More than a half-decade later, doctors still are not sure exactly what triggers her seizures.
"Every specialist we see is completely baffled and sends us on to another one," Allison said.
Lexi has never had another grand mal seizure, but doctors said she is constantly seizing while she sleeps. She has lost her ability to speak and functions at the cognitive level of a 2-year-old, Allison said.
Lexi takes three different medications and the nighttime seizures have not stopped.
That's led Allison to explore other options. Talking with parents across the country, she discovered the Realm of Caring, a Colorado-based dispensary claiming to have developed a marijuana strain benefiting children with epilepsy.
WPTZ was there when the Realm of Caring's founders visited the University of Vermont in November 2013. In that talk, one of the strain's creators, Josh Stanley, said it has a nearly 90 percent effective rate in epileptic children.
"She's not getting high on it. That's the main key. She's not getting high," Allison said.
This type of marijuana is not smoked. Instead, droppers filled with the plant's oil are put in food. The strain also does not make children high, as the psychoactive part of the cannabis, THC, is low.
Allison is not giving the strain to her daughter, but she would like to. She hopes some Vermont dispensaries engineer something similar. Federal law prohibits the transfer of marijuana or plant seeds across state lines.
"She's been on all these other medications. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work," Allison said. "It's just something else we've tried for her."
"We are talking to several parents in the state at this point," said Shayne Lynn, executive director at Champlain Valley Dispensary in Burlington. Lynn runs a second medical marijuana dispensary in Brattleboro.
He said he will not dispense to children, pointing to a federal Department of Justice memo stating the first priority in the department's marijuana enforcement initiative is to prevent "the distribution of marijuana to minors."

Dick Criswell's first encounter with the UFO/Paranormal field was at the age if six. At 17, he would listen to Frank Edwards, a news reporter for WTTV in Indianapolis, IN, who would focus on UFO/Paranormal topics and investigations, which sparked Dick's interest. With the developing fascination of UFO/Paranormal research in the Indianapolis area, Mr. Criswell hosted UFO and paranormal meetings in his home. During this time he met Richard Hoagland who introduced him to Dr. Michael Wolf. In 1994 Mr. Criswell became a team member on a project with Dr. Wolf called the ALPHA COM. In 1997 he co-hosted a national radio show on the cable news network called Star Fire Program. Dick Criswell is now retired and is dedicating countless hours of his time to research and investigating UFOs and the paranormal. He is currently in talks with fellow enthusiasts and is creating a business plan to begin a national UFO/Paranormal research facility.

Some 40,000 classic car owners who spend much of the year primping and polishing their machines will be showing them off Saturday during the annual Woodward Dream Cruise. But hundreds more, who either hate the idea of the Dream Cruise, or who could care less about what their cars look like, will instead be in Ypsilanti, participating in the annual "Nightmare Cruise." There will even be cash prizes for the "nastiest, ugliest cars."
It's all part of this weekend's Ypsilanti Heritage Festival, which features, food, musical entertainment and a variety of other events.

In your print edition editorial Nov. 14, you referred to the many Americans trying at the state level to protect the lives of unborn babies and the health of their mothers, as people attempting to "restrict access to the legal procedure" of abortion. ("Pennsylvanians take note, abortion fight now being waged at the state level.") Just because something is legal, it is not necessarily right. These efforts are not meant to be a "frontal assault on a woman's privacy and dignity," but to give mothers the information they need to make an informed choice and to stand up to those who often try to pressure them into a decision they may feel is their only option.
There are countless programs and resources in every state to help women through difficult pregnancies and to care for them and their babies afterward. If a woman decides she can't keep and support her baby, there are many couples longing to adopt. No one is saying that "a woman undertakes lightly the decision to undergo an abortion," but the living human being she is carrying has the right to continue living and his or her mother has the right to be shown the support and care she needs.

I know that I'm a bit behind on the washer jewelry trend, but hey—I'm new to the blog thing! So for those of you who are also new or just want a trip down memory lane, here is my washer necklace tutorial:
I am such a huge fan of this look because I am a jewelry minimalist. Some might call me plain but I prefer minimalist. It sounds so much more chic.
Washers- these cost 11 cents each at Home Depot. You can't beat that!
A rubber mallet- I got mine here
Metal stamping set- I got mine here
I know, I know you're thinking that you don't have a metal stamping set. Well, consider investing in one. I got all these numbers and letters for about $13.00. These babies can be used for jewelry, metal tags for organizing, or making your keys identifiable (if you happen to carry a janitor-sized amount around). After the initial cost of the stamping set, and rubber mallet, then it's a cool 11 cents for each washer after that.
So all you have to do is choose the letters or numbers you want on your washer:
I just wanted my initials (told you–jewelry minimalist)
Then line up the stamp on the washer and BANG!
Since I didn't want to photograph myself wearing this and Lily didn't want to stay still enough I enlisted the help of my orchid plant to be my model.
And there you have it my friends! My simple washer necklace—Enjoy!

Standard Bank delivers strong results – globally and locally
Africa's largest bank, Standard Bank, has produced a solid performance in 2013, increasing headline earnings per share by 14%. This performance has also been reflected in the local business which continues to deliver year on year growth, posting a 20% increase in net profits after tax.
John Coyle, Chief Executive Officer, Standard Bank, Isle of Man attributed the local business's positive results to a number of factors: "Some clients want to diversify their risks and are seeking alternative options to the traditional UK and European banks but just as important are our commitments to long-term relationships and client service. For example, we have now won Professional Adviser Magazine's "Best International Banking service" award in four of the last five years.
Whilst Standard Bank has an international client base, much of the recent growth has come from clients with connections to Africa. "As an experienced player in emerging markets, we are comfortable and experienced in dealing with clients from Africa and we have the appetite and capability to deal with more complex client requirements" explained Mr Coyle.
"A significant part of our business now also comes from supporting key sectors operating in the lsle of Man. In particular, for those companies such as Trust and Corporate Service Providers who themselves have business dealings into or from the African continent, we are increasingly becoming the 'go-to' bank on the island, due to our high level of knowledge and expertise in those markets. Africa contains many of the world's fastest growing economies and the number of High Net Worth Individuals on the continent is booming. This can only bring benefits to those companies who can deliver relevant products and services to meet the growing financial needs of such clients. As part of Africa's largest banking group, we are well placed to help island based firms take advantage of these opportunities."

"Syntax is how I know! Syntax!" Mike Smythe (MIchael Gambon) roars as he swings an ashtray into the face of poor Nathan Israel (Patrick J. Adams). Blood on the floor of Smythe's giant yacht; a flock of birds flies away.
It's on. At last. The simmering, served-cold revenge plot that Ace Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman) has been cooking up all season on HBO's "Luck" has boiled over, and fittingly for a show that's been all talk and little action away from the racetrack, it's a poor choice of words that set it off. Israel is/was Ace's proxy in the elaborate scheme against Smythe and all those who did him wrong, and The Kid, as Ace and Gus (Dennis Farina) call him, was supposed to be both representing Ace's interest and pretending to be a double agent for Smythe & Co. Smythe was suspicous, in your face suspicious like only a classically trained British actor can be, and the flustered Israel gave himself away by repeating a favorite expression of Ace's: "answering a question with a question." An enraged Smythe did what he did and left Smythe looking down for the count and out of the series.
It's not official, and maybe won't be until the race stewards declare him dead, but Israel looks pretty dead to me. An announcement from HBO might provide a clue: Gambon will be a recurring character next season and Margarita Levieva from ABC's "Revenge" will play Sarah Israel, Nathan's sister. Maybe she'll want some righteous revenge against Smythe for her brother's death. If so, she'll have to get in line behind Ace and Gus, who know something's wrong when Israel hasn't called in. They foreshadowed the violence early in the episode when Gus praised The Kid and Ace agreed Israel was "standing up all right." Smythe did his own foreshadowing, prodding and testing Israel about his name and family background. (Gambon sure looks happy to be playing a heavy after being so righteous as Dumbledore in the Harry Potter movies. Does that mean Ace is Voldemort and Gus is Draco Malfoy? Didn't think so.)
Israel made another verbal gaffe that might prove fatal for another character. Right before he gave the game away, Israel told Smythe that Ace "may have found a woman friend." That would Claire (Joan Allen), who runs a program for convicts to rehabilitate themselves by working with old thoroughbreds. Claire and Ace chopper up to the pasture for a visit and some carrot-feeding and trotting around the roundpen. Ace loves to gaze at thoroughbreds -- not you, Claire -- so much so that he has a video camera installed in Pint of Plain's stall so he can watch his prize horse on his laptop.
Turo Escalante (John Ortiz), needless to say, doesn't like the camera in his barn and mutters darkly about being "put on Facebook." It's the least of his worries. Big-hearted vet Jo Carter (Jill Hennessy) is pregnant. Turo makes a weak crack about wondering who the poppa is, but he knows enough about bloodlines to understand what he's sired and seems like he might do the right thing for once. Maybe he's curious about how fast his kid will run as a 3-year-old. If there's a problem, he can always put his child in a claiming race and hope someone else takes responsibility, like one of the degenerates from Foray Stables.
Some of them are starting to have lives of their own. Jerry (Jason Gedrick) goes off to a poker tournament and meets sweet-looking dealer Naomi (Weronika Rosati). She makes a rookie mistake that costs her a bigger pot, he knocks her out with trip fours, and they go out to his car for some mutual satisfaction. "We call that a split pot," Jerry says, maybe the best line of the season. When Jerry brings Naomi back to meet the guys, Marcus acts a little jealous. Lonnie (Ian Hart) makes a rookie mistake of his own in a claiming race and has a delightful chunk of dialogue with his friends, comparing the horse Niagra Fall to an episode of "The Three Stooges."
This was the best episode of "Luck" since the opener. Walter Smith (Nick Nolte) still can't decide on a jockey. Ronnie (Gary Stevens) can't stay sober and Rosie (Kerry Condon) and Leon (Tom Payne) can't get a break. Everything is moving toward a payoff, something that could be all the more satisfying because it took so long.
