Will 2cm make a big difference for a park board?
I'm getting into the park this season and will be taking 10-25 ft kickers and lots of rails. I was looking at a Forum Youngblood Doubledog 155w, but I can't find any in my area but did find a 157w for dirt cheap.
I'm curious if at 5'11" 170lbs, intermediate riding experience but beginner in the park, if I'll even notice a difference between 2cm? I hear smaller for the park is better, but wasn't sure if a longer board is more forgiving on lands or if I'd want a smaller board to move around easier?
I'm riding a 154 Forum Destroyer '05 now. Thanks.
There is a LOT of Forum still out there...and very cheap. You can most certainly find the perfect size with a web search. In this model there is not much difference in EE or Width between the 155 W and the 157 W but there is a notable stiffness jump. What is your foot size? Here are the specs:
Effective Edge (cm): 116.5 (150W), 120.5 (155W), 121.5 (157W), 122.0 (159W)
Tip/Tail Width (cm): 29.89 (150W), 29.35 (155W), 30.3 (157W), 30.4 (159W)
Waist Width (cm): 25.6 (150W), 25.8 (155W), 25.8 (157W), 25.9 (159W)
Thanks for the response man. I'm a size 12 boot (32s) but my next boots will most likely be a 12.5.
The 157w was on clearance at a local shop and was cheaper than anything I could find online by $50 so it was appealing.
Shop also had a 156 normal width but figured at 25.0cm waist width it might be too thin.
Please measure your foot using this method:
Kick your heel (barefoot please, no socks) back against a wall. Mark the floor exactly at the tip of your toe (the one that sticks out furthest - which toe this is will vary by rider). Measure from the mark on the floor to the wall. That is your foot length and is the only measurement that you will want to use. Measure in centimeters if possible, but if not, take inches and multiply by 2.54 (example: an 11.25 inch foot x 2.54 = 28.57 centimeters).
Alright, my barefoot is 27.5cm long...but I do have wide feet (10cm) so I always have to size up boots .5-1 full size.
"Snowboarders who have a boot size of 10.5 or more are recommended to ride a wide-model board. If you have a boot size that falls between 10.5 and 12, choose a snowboard that features a 26-cm waist width. Upgrade to a 26.5-cm snowboard if your boot size is between a 12 and 13."
It looks like the waist width between the 156 and 157w is 25.0 vs 25.8 cm....is this negligible?
It's wrong information.
:) Two things. 1. That is attrociously bad info. 2. In terms of foot measurement 27.5 corresponds to a size 9.5 boot, not 10 (these will be the sizes that the manufacturer has printed on a the boots). If you have a size 12 boot it will indicate that it is for a 30 cm foot.
As mentioned, only foot length counts here, not boot size, and we have a perfect measurement to work with in the 27.5 that you had posted.
Here are the details:
How wide of a snowboard do I need? Where is the width of a snowboard measured? What does width mean in terms of my boot size?
Let's start by talking about measurements, because this is where a lot of the confusion arises. The most common width measurement that is provided by manufacturers is "waist". The waist is measured at the narrowest point near the middle of the board (usually). But like with all things in snowboarding, different brands measure different things. Some measure the midpoint between the tip and tail and call that "waist". Others simply provide a measurement they call, "width", but do not really specify what width they are referring to.
If that has you a bit confused, don't worry, because regardless of where these "waist" measurements are taken, they are not very useful for what they are typically used for. Most people think that this measurement is a good indicator of what foot size a board will handle. It is not, and for a simple reason: you do not stand at the waist, you stand at the inserts. A board's waist measurement is always less than the measurement at the inserts and often the difference is significant. Additionally, two boards with the same waist dimension, may have very different measurements at the inserts, depending on each board's sidecut. Measurement at the center insert is a much better way to compare boards for shoe size compatibility, but for some odd reason, manufacturers do not publish this info.
OK, so now we have told you why we think the commonly provided measurements are pretty silly, but what good does that do you? You still need to know how to figure out the correct width for your new board. Well, here comes. There are two easy steps to getting it right every time.
First, measure your bare foot. It is important that you do not try to use a boot size. It is also important that you measure in centimeters, because the board measurements that you will be comparing to will be in cm. Here is the method that we suggest:
Kick your heel (barefoot please, no socks) back against a wall. Mark the floor exactly at the tip of your toe (the one that sticks out furthest - which toe this is will vary by rider). Measure from the mark on the floor to the wall. That is your foot length and is the only measurement that you will want to use. Measure in centimeters if possible, but if not, take inches and multiply by 2.54 (example: an 11.25 inch foot x 2.54 = 28.57 centimeters).
Second, measure the board you are considering. This measurement is easy. It should be taken at the inserts. Try to measure at the inserts that you will be using to achieve your stance position. If you are unsure about this, simply measure at the center of the insert cluster (that will still be very close). Be sure to measure using the base of the board, not the deck. This is important because the sidewalls on many boards are angled in, and will therefore give you a smaller measurement on the deck than on the base. For our example's sake, let's say the measurement is 27.54 at the center insert.
Still with us? You are almost done. You now have a way to compare foot size to board width where it matters, but how do you interpret this info to get the correct width? Well that depends a little on stance angle. If you ride a 0 degree stance, you will want your foot size to be the same as the width of the board at the inserts or up to 1 cm greater. If you ride at an angled stance, you will want to measure the board across at the angles that you will be riding. Again, you will want your foot to at least match this measurement or exceed it by up to 1 cm. So using our example above, this guy has a foot 28.57 cm that exceeds the board with at the inserts 27.54 cm by 1.03 cm at a zero degree angle. But, when he angles his feet to the 15 degree angles that he rides, voila, he has .10 cm of overhang for a perfect fit.
But wait a second. Are we saying that you should have overhang, even with bare feet? Yes. You will need overhang to be able to apply leverage to your edges and to get the most out of your board. 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch of boot overhang for both toe and heel is ideal, and will not create problematic toe or heel drag. Remember that boots typically add 1/2 at both the toe and heel to your foot measurement from above, due to padding, insulation and the outer boot materials. We do not suggest using the boot length to size boards though, as the extra padding etc, cannot be used well to create leverage, that has to come from your foot itself. We highly recommend that riders do not choose boards where their feet do not come to or exceed the real board width.
OK, that's all well and good, but where can you get the information on board width at the inserts if the manufacturers don't provide it? That's easy. Email the store that carries the board(s) that you are considering. Give them your foot length in cm (and your stance width and angles if you know them). They will be able to provide you with the width at the inserts that you will be using and can factor in your stance angle as well to get you the exact overhang that you will have with bare feet.
Once mounted, the best way to test is to put your (tightly laced) boots into your bindings and strap them in tightly. It is important that you have the heel pulled all the way back into the bindings heel cup or the test won't help. On a carpeted floor place your board flat on its base. Kneel behind the heelside edge and lift that edge so that it rests on your knees and so that the toeside edge is angled down into the carpet. Now press down with both hands using firm pressure, one hand on each of the boots. This will compress the board's sidecut and simulate a turn on hard snow. You can change the angle of the board on your knees to become progressively steeper and you will be able to see at what angle you will start getting toe drag. You will want to repeat the test for your heelside as well. If you are not getting drag at normal turn and landing angles, then you are good to go.
Also a note about boots: Boot design plays a big role in toe drag as does binding ramping and binding base height. Boots that have a solid bevel at the toe/heel drag less. Many freestyle boots push for more surface contact and reduce bevel. This helps with contact, but if you have a lot of overhang with those boots it hurts in terms of toe drag.
Now go ride!

Hmmm... Right now the votes equal 125%...
What is your favorite on-line Gun Store?
Buds Gun Store
Gun Broker
Top Gun Supply
Centerfire Guns Cheaper Than Dirt
Gallery of Guns
Jet Guns
Jasons Guns
Arms List
The government must be involved. Their math is always wrong.
Im glad someone started this poll... I'm new to shooting and wanted to see what online store was best. So far my favorite is Gun Broker (subject to change though).
You've missed Davidson's (Gun Genie). Davidson's and Bud's are my favorite online gun stores.
Edit: Sorry, I didn't see Gallery of Guns in your poll.
Just received a P1 from Bud's today. Hassle free!
I've had good results with Summit and also with The Exchange out in South Dakota. Both did exactly what they said they'd do, promptly.
bud's with free shipping is sweet to deal with.
grabagun.com - Great selection. Low price. Fast shipping. Very good to work with. I've ordered three pistols from them in the last year and had perfect transactions every time. Worth checking out.
Cheaper Than Dirt only on 5th place on this pool? Gone are the days when they offered great discounts in promo and coupon codes.
Noticed that Gunbroker is listed twice.
I'm smelling a conspiracy.
I noticed new social pages on Facebook about Cheaper Than Dirt promo codes. Maybe they`ll come back to they once used to be.
Facebook offer enough resources in terms of Cheaper Than Dirt promo codes.

Never forget that wooters will vote for designs for many many many reasons that have nothing to do with quality. Daedalus has done some quality work in his time here, and I'm sympathetic to his loss, but I quite believe his story has given this added momentum it may questionably deserve.

I think it's great except the wings don't stand out enough... which means it takes more than one glance to see it's a baby dragon instead of some strange snake thing jumping out of the egg...
You might experiment with different coloured wings instead of changing the shirt colour.

I would buy it if it said combat boots...But being former Airforceit would be a sin to wear something that says Army! If you are not fimiliar with the services you should know there is a huge rivalry and therefore only Army brats or women in the Army would wear this.

may I offer a helping hand check out Brownells they have alot of 1911 parts pretty much everything you need to build the only draw back is the Lower reciever will have to be shipped to a FFL dealer in your area. the rest it is pretty simple infact most of the gun can disassembled with the hammer spur. just use brass punches to remove some pins and rubber hammer or brass hammer to put pins in and ofcourse the finish will have to be done. and then choosing the rear sight. brownells has millet adjustable sights or you can go with tru glow night sights.
just check them out here is the link: http://www.brownells.com/

Extend the value of your Macaw with this charming and characterful cage-bird from Australia. Bred with many colour variants, 6 of which are included in this pack. The Macaw model has been updated with new morphs and a smart propped morphable crest. Your previous macaw poses will work with the cockatiel (see below) but included in this set are 16 new bonus poses from Arki which bring out the personality of this lively bird.
What's Included and FeaturesFeatures
- 1 Flying and 2 Perched Cockatiels (the later to avoid cross-talk in P4 & PP and allow paired poses) _the crest is a smart prop parented to the head with reshaping morphs.
- The cockatiel shape is derived from the original Macaw obj. with new morphs and scale parameters_ the final shape is controlled by a single full body morph (fbm) in the [body] section of the model.
- 6 colour variations of each version applied with MATposes.
- 4 flying, 4 perched and 4 paired poses.
- Easy-pose functionality as in the macaw to produce lifelike and convenient wing and body movement. Note: when applying the original Macaw poses to the cockatiel model Poser will turn off the Cockatiel fbm (and your cockatiel will nose dive due to the weight of its newly acquired hooter!) To put this right, simply select the [body] element of the cockatiel and [Alt][Click] on the fbmCockatiel dial in the parameters list.

I've recently bought a used, painted JP, and it seems a little fragile to me. I'm wondering what the best (and easiest!) method to reinforce the jetpack would be? Would simply painting on fiberglass resin do anything worthwhile? How about a full fiberglass treatment inside?
Is there any risk when the fiberglass cures that it will shrink or expand and cause damage to the jetpack?

"Great looking card, the designer helped me get the back of the card to look exactly as I wanted. The pearl finish stands out against my competitors cards. Delivery was very quick! Thanks Tiny Prints!"
"Good, heavy quality cardstock. I chose the teal option and find it to be both professional and eye-catching - I wanted a card that would be easy to find if flipping through a rolodex, since I don't have a logo, and this is exactly what I was looking for."
"The design was super easy to edit to reflect my contact information, and leave off what didn't apply (no job title, no fax, no headings on the back) They come in a nice sturdy little box to keep the cards neat & clean!"
"Despite the order not shipping when expected-Tiny Prints took the opportunity to make everything right about the experience. I ended up working with 2 different customer service reps throughout the process and they were both exceptional. They were helpful, service oriented, caring and professional. It tells me that the training received comes from the top down. And the best part is that I was extremely pleased with the product and would order from them again."
"I love this company. They always have fantastic designs and when I hand out business cards, people are always impressed. I'm a devoted customer."

Emme became the first famous "plus-sized" model in the '90s, but the blond beauty says she resents that label.
"I think the word 'plus-sized' is really a derogatory term for anyone that just happens to have a curve," Emme told Billy Bush and guest co-host Holly Robinson Peete on Friday's Access Hollywood Live.
"'Full figured' [is better] perhaps," she added. "Or just 'a woman.' There's such beautiful women that represent 62 million women out there. And I wish that they were [given] more opportunities."
PHOTOS: Model Mania - Catwalkin' Beauties
Emme has been fairly fortunate when it comes to discrimination in the industry, though the model did experience one ugly incident which nearly caused her to quit.
"I did work on a job where a photographer, a very top photographer - I almost left the business because of him. He just looked at me and said, 'I'm not shooting this fatty,'" she said. "My agent begged me to stay and I just said, 'My gosh.'
PHOTOS: Stars In Their Underwear
"But thank goodness I stayed in, because if you give up, then you don't make a point," she added.
Emme didn't initially aspire to be a model - she was more interested in sports and TV.
"I thought being a model was froufrou. I was a jock and an athlete from Syracuse University and I wanted to be an anchor," she said. "I wanted to be a host like Johnny Carson. Honest to God, that's exactly what I wanted to do."
These days, Emme is busy raising her 11-year-old daughter, who is already nearly 5' 8" and wears size 11 shoes. Despite her statuesque height for her age, Emme said she will not allow her daughter stroll the catwalk.
PHOTOS: Hollywood's Hottest Moms
"There's no way she's going to get into modeling. No, really -- no way! I really want her to have a childhood," Emme explained. "Her father and I really believe in that. She is an incredible actor and she has been involved with school plays, taking leads, being [an] understudy. And she understands all the parts when I go through lines with her.
"She really wants to act, so it's gonna take some time. She's in classes," she continued. "I'm keeping the reins tight, but I feel that she's going to be coming out soon. But it's slow, and I really know that if you get in too early, it could be pretty damaging. So, you want to give a child their childhood."

EVERY once in a while a product comes out that spawns a whole
new industry. Cell phones come to mind, as do iPods. In the fishing
world, one such product is the original BASSTRIX paddle tail swimbait.
Make no mistake about it; swimbaits have been around since the
original VIVIF swimbait arrived on our shores from France in the early
1960's. Swimbaits caught on like wildfire on the salt water front. It
seems like any fish that ate another fish for a living could be caught
on a swimbait. Particularly in southern California, you could not open
a salt water angler's tackle box without bumping into at least a few
rubber fishies.
The history of swimbaits in fresh water has not been as spectacular. While
worms of every length, size, shape, and color crowded out a basser's
tackle box, soft baits that looked like fish were far and few between.
There is a small following of anglers who used the smaller two to three
inch swimbaits mounted on 1/16 - 1/8 oz. ball shaped jig heads for
various panfish and the occasional walleye (in the central states), but
almost no one would throw a swimbait for bass.
Who knows why this is the case. Perhaps the jig head in front of the
fish body didn't look "right" to a basser. Maybe rigging on a jig head
snagged up to often. Maybe a jig head with weed guards on it looked
too "phony". Whatever the case, bassers and swimbaits didn't match.
Until BASSTRIX.
The BASSTRIX paddle tail swimbait was like none other. BASSTRIX
swimbaits were the first of the hand poured hollow body baits. Like
their hand poured worm cousins, the colors and finishes were beyond
anything injection molded. The was a shine and a shimmer to the
lure that only the hollow body design could give. Their hollow body
design and soft plastic composition allowed them to swim at slower retrieves.
The softness of form and construction also made them feel "squishy"
and lifelike when a bass sucked one in; and the bass ate them up!
This ground breaking lure just begged for an innovative rigging system.
Sure, like any other swimbait you can impale them on a jighead and
go at it, but rigging them "Texposed" style really lets these lures
shine forth in all its glory.
There are two styles of hooks that work well with the BASSTRIX;
1) the weighted wide gap worm hook like the Falcon Lures Bait-Jerker hook
or the Gamakatsu weighted EWG Monster, and 2) the newer, innovative
twistlock hooks such as J.P. Jigs' BassTwitchers hook and Owner's weighted
Twistlock Beast hook.
By popular consent, BASSTRIX lures tend to catch larger than average bass
and can be considered a big bass bait. These lures are best fished with a
firm rod and stout line. Don't say that we didn't warn you should you decide
to throw this bait with wimpy tackle!

At The Wall Street Journal's D8 conference in June, Apple CEO Steve Jobs compared the PC to a farm truck, saying that when America was an agrarian economy: "All cars were trucks because that's what you needed on the farm. Now trucks are one in 25 to 30 vehicles sold." Whether you think PCs will shrink or grow in importance seems to depend partly on semantics. During the same conference, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer countered: "I think people are going to be using PCs in greater and greater numbers for years to come. . . . The PC as we know it will continue to morph form factor. The real question is, what are you going to push."
Jobs may not view the iPad as a PC, but we do.
Our view is that the consumer PC market in the US is indeed getting bigger: Over the next five years, PC unit sales across all form factors will increase by 52%. In fact, desktops are the only type of PC whose numbers will be fewer in 2015 than they are today — and even desktops will benefit from innovation in gaming and 3D. We detail our findings in a new report, The US Consumer PC Market In 2015. Clients can read the full report on our Web site, but here are a few key takeaways:

Junior attacker Tori Quinn has been named MAAC Offensive Player of the Week, the league announced on Monday.
Quinn racked up seven points on four goals and three assists in the Griffs' 16-9 win over Monmouth on Saturday.
Behind Quinn's five first half points on four goals, Canisius jumped out to a 10-2 halftime lead over the Hawks.
The Orangeville, Ontario native's seven total points were the second most she has recorded this season behind an eight-point performance in the Blue and Gold's win over Iona.
Quinn and the Griffs will return to action on Wednesday, when the team travels to Lewiston, N.Y. to square off with longtime-rival Niagara.

For Canisius, senior guard Billy Baron scored a game-high 31 points in the loss, his eighth game of 30 points or more this season. He also added six assists, four rebounds and three steals to the Griffs' effort. Senior forward Chris Manhertz, who returned to the starting line-up after missing three games with a broken nose, had 14 points and seven rebounds and senior Chris Perez chipped in 14 points as well. Canisius shot 44 percent from the floor and 38.1 percent from 3-point land in the loss while turning the ball over just five times, but Quinnipiac controlled the rebounding battle, as the Bobcats out rebounded the Griffs by a 49-27 count.
"Quinnipiac is a very, very physical team and they crash the boards on every shot," Canisius head coach Jim Baron said. "It's an attitude. They go up for the ball with a purpose. When we beat them at their place, we did it because we matched them on the glass. Tonight, to their credit, they hit shots and got rebounds, and they never really allowed us to get out in transition."
Canisius, which trailed by as many as 19 in the opening moments of the second half, was down 68-52 with 3:41 left in the game after Quinnipiac senior Ike Azotam scored on a lay-up. From there, the Griffs tried to battle back, using a 14-5 run over the span of 1:56 to make the score 73-66 in favor of the Bobcats. During that run, Baron scored six points for the Griffs and was credited with an assist on a made 3-point field goal by fellow senior Jordan Heath. After Quinnipiac took a nine-point lead at 77-68 with 1:17 left, Baron hit a 3-pointer in transition on the Griffs' next trip down the floor to make it a six-point contest at 77-71 with 1:14 left on the clock.
Canisius was able to trim Quinnipiac's lead to four at 81-77 with 43 seconds left to play after Baron found redshirt freshman Phil Valenti open on the block for a lay-up, but that would be as close as the Griffs would get on the night, as Quinnipiac ended up going 5-for-6 from the free-throw line in the contest's closing 41 seconds. For the night, Quinnipiac shot 36 free-throws, and the Bobcats ended up connecting on 31 of them, led by Hearst, who went 17-for-18 from the charity stripe to set a new Koessler Athletic Center record for made free-throws by a visiting player.
Quinnipiac took the game over late in the first half with a 13-2 run in the final 3:51 of the first stanza that took the score from 29-25 to 42-27 at the break in favor of the Bobcats. In that run, Umar Shannon had five points and Hearst chipped in three points for Quinnipiac. The game started as a back-and-forth affair, with seven ties and four lead changes in the game's first 9:31. Canisius got off to a good start early thanks to Manhertz, who scored the Griffs' first eight points in the game's opening 3:23 before baskets by Baron and junior Josiah Heath gave the Blue and Gold a 12-10 lead with 14:02 left before the halftime break.
As a team, Quinnipiac shot 44.6 percent from the floor, 46.7 percent from 3-point land and 86.1 percent from the free-throw line. Junior Ousmane Drame had a double-double in the win for the Bobcats, as he posted 14 points to go with a team-high 13 rebounds, with six of those coming off the offensive glass. The Griffs out scored Quinnipiac 48-26 in the paint and ended the night turning 14 Quinnipiac turnovers into 18 points.
Canisius, which now sits in fourth-place in the MAAC standings, will close out the home portion of the 2013-14 regular-season schedule on Saturday, Feb. 22, when the team plays host to Fairfield. Game time is set for 2 p.m., and prior to the game, the men's basketball program will take time to honor Baron, Jordan Heath, Manhertz and Perez, who will be playing in their final game in the Koessler Athletic Center.Game Notes: This was the second all-time meeting between Canisius and Quinnipiac, with each team winning on the road… The Griffs have now scored 80-plus points 16 times, the most for the program since the 1978-79 campaign… Canisius' five turnovers matches the team's season low – Canisius also had just five turnovers in the win over Niagara at home Jan. 22… After starting the season 8-0 at home, Canisius has now lost three straight in the Koessler Athletic Center… The crowd of 2,196 marks the third consecutive sellout of the Griffs' home building, the first time that has happened in Koessler Athletic Center history… Baron's eight 30-plus point games this season are the most for a Canisius player since Larry Fogle scored 30-plus 15 times in 1973-74… Baron is averaging 30.2 points per game in the Griffs' last five contests and his 696 total points this season leaves him four points shy of becoming just the second player in school history to score 700 points in a single season… Manhertz's seven rebounds gives him 734 for his career, which ranks seventh in school history.

IRS official says she never consorted with devil
WASHINGTON — For the record, the Internal Revenue Service official in charge of implementing a big part of the new health care law tells Congress she has never knowingly consorted with the devil.
And she cannot fly.
Sarah Hall Ingram was testifying before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Wednesday when Congressman Gerald Connolly tried to mock Republican efforts to demonize her. The Virginia Democrat asked Ingram several unorthodox questions about witchcraft as part of the hearing.
Some GOP lawmakers have been hammering Ingram for months because she once headed the IRS division that targeted conservative political groups for extra scrutiny when they applied for tax-exempt status. Hall said she left to run the agency's health care office in 2010, about six months before a top deputy learned about the targeting.

Discussion in 'Football, Baseball, and Hockey' started by Buckeyes#1, Apr 8, 2009.
Larry Foote was a 1st team all american who played at MICHIGAN. Sounds good to me.
hAVING THEM CALLED THE TOP 20 UNDRAFTED PLAYERS IS LIKE A STORE MANAGER SAYING "HERE'S OUR BEST EXPIRED MEAT,MILK AND EGGS!"
Looks like I had the inside scoop on this one....
This is pretty funny. YouTube - Matthew Stafford David Letterman Top 10
Is me or does it seem that Mark Sanchez got more media attention than Stafford has since being drafted by the Jets?? Maybe it's just ESPN that selling it...
The Jets spent the bank getting Sanchez. With what they gave the Pack for Favre it's a wonder they had any picks.
Why does Jessica Simpson keep calling me? LOL No they didn't. Just two defensive depth players/A QB and picks. Not much, Mangina did the Jets a favor. I expect Mark Sanchez is getting more attention, because he's in NYC.
He gets more attention because the Jets have a MUCH more immediate chance of winning with him (team is a lot better). The Lions have NO chance with Stafford this season.
I still might use Jones as a RB in fantasy this year.
Please do. You should also start him in weeks that you play me.
Nice to see that the reports of your death were greatly exaggerated, Cannuckian.
You wouldn't be able to get rid of me that easily Tater.
I'll sic Megatron on you !!!
I hope Stafford's second day went better than his first.
What, being on Letterman ?

We don't need any of those top guys. How would you like to be a kicker at a training camp trying to beat out Jason Hanson, who has been the Lions kicker before William Clay Ford was even born?
NFL Power Rankings came out...post draft. Minnesota, Chicago, and Green Bay are ranked 9th, 11th, and 13th respectively. The Lions, very unrespected, are ranked dead last........
If you ask me, the Lions are still overrated.
That is probably true. They are assuming that the Lions will still be part of the league next season.

Can't fault the KT, as the one I've used seemed to do well. I didn't care for the trigger at all, but it did work. If you care for a different suggestion -- I like the Kahr CW9 a lot more, and they only run about $29 bucks more.
I don't have the Sig, the main reason is because of the less than stellar reputation it has developed because of reliability issues. I've also read however that some of these issues may have been resolved, but I would not purchase one until it develops a better long-term track record.
If you want another different suggestion, you might look at the Browing Buckmark or the Ruger MKIII or the S&W 22A. All can be easily found for well within your price range, and will in all likelyhood be more reliable than the Sig. I would be that they would be more accurate as well.

If people stay away from the Salt Lake City Marathon, the terrorists win.
That statement came Tuesday from a spokesman for the Salt Lake City Police Department after race officials met with law enforcement agencies and others in ongoing preparations for Saturday's 10th anniversary run of the 26.2-mile event. There is no "credible threat" of violence, according to authorities.
"When we have an event like yesterday [in Boston], it's important to support the [Salt Lake City] Marathon Saturday," Detective Mike Hamideh said Tuesday. "To stay away from it is to say the terrorists win."
Race organizers said there is no reason to believe the marathon which begins at the University of Utah and travels through Holladay, Murray and South Salt Lake before ending at Liberty Park will not be fun and safe.
"It's going to be an awesome event. It's going to be safe," race director Steve Bingham said. "From what we've been sharing, there is no reason to believe there is a threat."
Nonetheless, area law enforcement officials are on heightened alert for Saturday's race as Boston investigators, along with FBI and ATF agents, continue to sift through the carnage of Monday's Boston Marathon bombings. The tandem explosions near the race's finish line left three dead and at least 170 injured. No one has claimed responsibility.
Saturday's race in Salt Lake City begins at 7 a.m. Organizers say about 7,000 runners have registered. About 800 volunteers will be on hand and roughly 3,000 spectators are expected to line the route, according to organizers.
Utah Department of Public Safety spokesman Dwayne Baird said in a live Salt Lake Tribune Internet chat Tuesday that a marathon poses a unique security challenge because it takes place over a long course. But he also said law enforcement officials are using intelligence-gathering networks to evaluate any potential dangers and at this point there are no "credible threats."
Baird encouraged attendees of the Salt Lake City Marathon to be vigilant and keep an eye out for suspicious activity. The Salt Lake City Police Department has created the email account email@example.com for anyone wanting to pass along tips. Police also can be contacted by calling 801-799-3000 or by dialing 911.
Each year, Salt Lake City Marathon organizers contract with law enforcement agencies for race security. In past years, much of that has been traffic control along the race route. This year is different in the wake of the Boston bombings, Bingham said.
"We're talking about things we normally wouldn't be talking about," Bingham said. "We're looking at what resources are available to respond to various scenarios."
Runner Andy Hortin, who works at Salt Lake Running Co., said he still plans to race Saturday. Hortin also said he doesn't believe the Boston attacks will deter other runners.
Salt Lake City police will provide security for the event, Baird said; 75 percent of the department's staff is scheduled to work Saturday. Other agencies involved include Unified Police Department, University of Utah Police Department, Murray Police Department and the South Salt Lake Police Department. Baird declined to give the exact number of officers who will be on duty Saturday.
Fire and emergency medical personnel also will be on duty, Baird said. He added that, despite the bombings in Boston, officials in Salt Lake City expect a successful event.
Marathon spokesman Carter Livingston said organizers pay to have law enforcement provide security. He did not say how much organizers are spending on that but added this year's bill will be the same as in 2012.
Participants are being encouraged to take TRAX to the starting line. Livingston said people should expect delays as a result of added security. Special TRAX schedules are available at saltlakecitymarathon.com
Ed Eyestone, a cross country coach at Brigham Young University, said he believes the Boston Marathon was targeted for its iconic status, not because it was a race. Eyestone does not expect other marathons to be the target of terrorists. He also said that sensitive areas at marathons usually require credentials to enter.
U. police Chief Scott Folsom pointed out that hundreds of marathons are held safely each year across the country.
"We have to enjoy these events," he said. "I would be worrying more about being hit by a car [than an explosion]."

Police ask the public for marathon vigilance
The Salt Lake City Police Department has created the email account firstname.lastname@example.com for anyone wanting to pass along tips on suspicious activity. Police can be contacted anonymously through text messaging at CRIMES (274637) using the key word "slmarathon." SLCPD also can be contacted by calling 801-799-3000 or by dialing 911.

By Rob Kelly
Kyle Bartley says the addition of Steve Bould to Arsenal's first-team coaching staff "could be as big as any new signing this summer".
Following the retirement of Pat Rice at the end of last season, Arsène Wenger moved quickly to appoint the former Under-18s manager as his new assistant manager.
And for Bartley, learning from an Arsenal defensive legend is something to relish.
"It is fantastic - already in training you can see the influence Steve is having," he said. "I think for defenders and the whole defensive unit it is going to be a massive benefit.
"Having Steve with the first team could be as big as any signing this summer."
Bartley has been promoted to Arsenal's first-team squad for the 2012 Arsenal Tour, but he knows that making the breakthrough remains a tough task.
"It was an honour and privilege to be called up to be part of the first-team squad," he said. "There aren't too many players who have come through the youth team and established themselves in the first team. That is my aim and the hard work starts now.
"I have had two seasons on loan and got plenty of experience, and have come back to Arsenal a much better player. I have spoken to the boss briefly during pre- season and the plan is to stick around and see where I fit into his plans.
"Hopefully I will be in the mix to push for a place and then keep my place when I get my chance in the team."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

Robert Reed, Assoc. AIA, closed his five-person Atlanta firm, Preston & Reed Sustainability Solutions, in late 2007, at the beginning of what the National Bureau of Economic Research has designated as the start of the recession. Since that time, thousands of small businesses such as Reed's have closed, and thousands more employees have found themselves out of work. However, Reed, a Georgia Tech graduate, is no longer one of them. Using his architecture training and business experience, Reed is now the sustainable communities design director at Southface, an Atlanta-based nonprofit advocacy group for environmental solutions in construction, development, and communities.
The recession was pretty abrupt for our firm. Our client at the time—for which we'd been working on a big project for over a year—was being shut down by more than one creditor, and we realized that we needed to take drastic measures. First, we did not renew our month-to-month lease. Then we moved into the basement of a rental property I owned. Ultimately, though, we closed the doors. My wife, Marci, had worked with Southface at one point in her career, and so I knew of them—and I had also worked with them on a few charrettes. They reached out and asked for my help on a few things in March 2008, and I've been with them ever since.
Southface's executive director, Dennis Creech, has been wise in seeing where thought about sustainability is most needed, but community has always been part of it. Community outreach is something I understood from my former firm's work. Architects, like developers and engineers, hold on to things closely, and sometimes they have trouble sharing. But what I have found is that community outreach makes projects better. It makes for smarter development and a more sustainable solution. More than that, I think the need for transforming land-use rules has not lessened over the last 30 years. We are so far from any form of smart growth, and we need to reconvene that focus.
Energy efficiency is a complicated problem—how do you begin to invest in it? But this is an exciting prospect: finding decentralized power sources. Here in Georgia, we have a monopoly utility, and the inertia of having one big supplier who runs the grid is a big thing to overcome.
So what is smart growth? Smart growth is a combination of things: acknowledging that placemaking is necessary, acknowledging the proper response to context, and acknowledging that natural resources, a proper street network, and so on are things that need to work, respond, and adapt over time.
Ultimately, we can have green lungs in our cities; we can complete restorative landscapes—and the younger generation of architects sees density and mixed-use with a green connection as a good thing. As a profession, we seem to be focused on high design, and there are missed opportunities in sustainable design, such as natural forces, passive systems, materials, and so on. If architects and eager students could find their forms inside those systems, we'd have a more meaningful architecture. —As told to William Richards

You may have walked or driven by a house on Fourth Street numerous times and barely noticed it was there - half hidden behind low limerock walls that terrace the sloping yard and overgrown cabbage palms. Or, perhaps, you stopped to take a photo of the pair of adirondack chairs, swaths of ferns and pile of bleached out shells on each side of the stairs.
It is one of those houses that could go either way - photo op or you might pass right by and not look up. 750 Fourth Street - home of Luz Beckham Kraujalis and her husband, Walter.
By Jim Wright
Here is a possible definition of love – "When people can be totally open with one another and feel totally safe at the same time."
I derived this definition from a passage in a book called Will the Real Me Please Stand Up, by John Powell. It reminds me of a statement I heard many years ago by a member of a church in Tallahassee: "What I like about church is that I can be myself and it is OK."
A new book, "Dark Origins of Valentine's Day" by Arnie Spiel details the not-so-romantic history of Feb. 14, that includes Roman executions in the 3rd Century.
Luckily, that was not the case in Cedar Key on Monday, when 150 people met to celebrate at the Community Center and enjoyed a dinner catered by the Island Room and music by the Dock Street Band.
Among the sold-out crowd at the event, sponsored by the Lion's Club, were three couples who revealed a thing or two about their relationships and a little bit more.
Cedar Key's Police Department has a well known leader, Chief Virgil Sandlin. But, the men who make up his force may be less known. I sat down with Cpl. David Perry this week to find out more.
The Basics: He is 33 years old and in April will have been on the force for six years — his first job out of the police academy. He has been married for "around" eight years and has a four year-old son, also known as "My World".
Cheyenne Clanton, age 13, and a 7th grader at Cedar Key School recently won the 2nd place trophy for the County competition of the Tropicana Speech Contest. This was her 3rd level of competition.
A small army of children from Cedar Key and Rosewood descended upon the Community Center Monday night, once they realized that Santa had slipped into town early on a firetruck. The only hint were the Christmas lights that decorated his ride.
Somehow, he managed to not only get into Cedar Key virtually undetected but he also set up his headquarters - complete with an elf named Teresa.
Cedar Key School FAA met 40 of the top FFA teams in the state in the food science competition at the University of Florida on December 4 and came home winners. Cedar Key's Future Farmers of America students included Laia Gore, Brooke Allen, Mikayla Pope, Caitlin Goss, Ariel Alexander, Taryn Epperson, Abby Osteen and Samantha Sapp.
This past Saturday at Kona Joe's Island
Cafe hosted a book signing for author Terri
Her latest book, "Casting About " is the
second in the Cedar Key series. The first,
"Spinning Forward," came out last year.
Additionally, DuLong has a story, "A Cedar
Key Christmas," that has been included in
the Christmas Novella "Holiday Magic."
The collection of four short stories by
four different authors, has made the New
York Times best seller list for three weeks
and was at No. 12 last week. This is the first
time that a Cedar Key author has made the
prestigious list.
Now is the perfect time to enjoy Florida's famous oysters. Florida oysters are available year round, but harvest really gears up in fall as water temperatures begin to drop. The cool months are when oysters taste the best.
Florida's oyster industry is based on the Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica), which is found from the Yucatan Peninsula in the Gulf of Mexico to the St. Lawrence River in Canada.
The Cedar Key Garden Club Garden of
the Month for November belongs to Bill and
Alyce Phillips of the Cedar Key Bed &
Breakfast. Their gardens include water features,
as well as one of the island's grandest
live oaks. Their staghorn fern also rivals the
best. Please join us in congratulating them
for such a picture-perfect garden.

Since my quest started on the Dented Helmet and it's a great resource for references and how to's... I hope this thread can motivate and inspire future projects... Most of all... Finish what you've started, I know lots of projects take time and get 'paused' never too see daylight again.. The thrill of finishing and trooping with your costume is well worth the effort.
Mandalorian Merc #813 Ser Valan'ce
My name is Sonny, born 1981. I've been active in the Belgian 501st Legion, Northern Territory as ID-7669 .
My first sw costume was "Boba Fett". I bought it from someone 2 heads smaller than myself so I had to replace all the soft parts. I never felt comfortable portraying a 'canon' character since I'm quite broad and I looked more like 'Boba on Steroïds'.
Then I found out about the MMCC and I felt relieved creating a more customized look yet upholding the highest costuming standards out there. I couldn't have done it without the help of friends at the time and the people in this community. I would like to express my gratitude on this community for:
Asok 'R.I.P.' for the extremely nice quality on the Buy'ce and rangefinder (Boba Fett version with filled up dent)
TK2280 for the nice Syntra Armor parts, which I found easily adjustable and customizable.
Bbf Replicas for the insane quality replica belt with pouches (found here on the Dented Helmet)
Mand'alor the Uniter, Novall Talon for his personal motivation, interest and advice and just the best advertisement around for this society.
And some of my future Belgian battle brothers who still have to get their own beskar'gem approved with the help on sanding, motivating, painting and general creation of my kit.
Cape is not yet finished, but it's acceptable for now like this
Custom BlasTech Industries EE-3 Carbine Rifle "Pepperbox" variant
"Aboard a YT Freighter"
"Just keeping the seat warm..."
"Securing the Medical Bay..."
"On a mission for Jabba the Hutt, posing with children to upscale the ransom demands"
Tatooine Patrol Duty...

Tyler Police have identified the suspect in the aggravated robbery of two people at an apartment near UT Tyler on Monday.
Blake Irving Thomas, 18, of Tyler, is wanted in connection with the armed robbery of two individuals at the Cambridge Apartments in Southeast Tyler earlier this week.
Late Monday night, officers visited a unit at the Cambridge Apartments in the 3000 block of Old Omen Road. Two men reported they had just been robbed at gun point by a person they say they met on the basketball court at TJC.
The victims reported that Thomas entered their apartment wielding a handgun, and demanding cash.
Police say Thomas took the money and fled.
If you have information on Thomas' whereabouts, please contact local law enforcement.

Through pain, the woman fought to tell her story, advising others in abusive relationships to get help.

Nurse to admit stealing morphine
Nina Perez, 32, of Berwick, Maine has struck a plea deal with state prosecutors just four months after being indicted on drug-related charges in Rockingham County Superior Court.
Terms of the plea agreement have not yet been made public.
Perez, who is free on bail, is expected to return to court on Jan. 2, 2013 to enter her plea.
She is facing charges of possession of a controlled drug and abuse of facility patients. Perez was working as a licensed practical nurse at The Edgewood Centre in Portsmouth on May 19 when she took a quantity of morphine prescribed to a male resident, according to a court complaint.
State prosecutors added the charge of abusing the patient, alleging that Perez, "harmfully deprived a patient of prescribed medication," which the patient used to control his pain.
Prosecutors say that Perez substituted the morphine with muscle relaxant, Flexeril.
Perez was arrested in August by state investigators. A grand jury returned the indictments against her a month later.
Had she been convicted at trial, Perez could have faced up to 3-1/2 to 7 years in state prison on the drug charge. The abuse of facility patients is a misdemeanor. The case is being prosecuted by the state Attorney General's Office.
A judge will have to approve the plea deal at the hearing in January. Perez could also face action against the New Hampshire Board of Nursing as a result of her arrest. The board has the power to suspend Perez's license to practice or take other disciplinary action.

The government of the Sudan is making its third attempt to chair the African Union and has indicated it will be upset if this third bid is denied. Its previous attempts were thwarted due to concerns over its human rights record of encouraging death and destruction in Darfur. A Sudan official commented: "It is obviously our turn to chair the AU. The situation in Darfur has improved so there are no more obstalces to that."
Perhaps, the improvement to which the Sudan official refers is that janjaweed murderers are running out of people to murder since they have driven over 2.5 million out of Darfur. The African Union has ignored the disaster in Zimbabwe, it has done relatively little to handle the blatant stealing of an election in Kenya, so chances are at some point it will accept the thugs from the Sudan as its chair. A Sudan chair of the African Union sends a message to all Africans fighting for human rights– the wrong message.

Hey, i figured I finally got far enough into the construction that I could show some of my progress. It still looks like nothing, and sorta junky if you ask me, but since its more about getting there than being there I figured I'd take pictures of the early stages so I could look back at when something was nothing.
Most stuff isn't placed exactly how itwill end up, and nothign much is actually bonded, I just wanted to fit some it like puzzle pieces to show the basic shapes I have going.
Don't be too harsh, it is my first attempt. Any thoughts would be nice.
