what companies and caliber of ammo is nickel plated?
I think Remington makes the most but a bunch of other companys do also. Most all of it is hand gun and in most of the calibers. I never paid that much attention although I do like nickel cases.
Reminton,Federal and a lot of others. I think they charge about $1.00 more a hundred or something like that.:smt1099
Pretty much any premium SD cartridge has a nickel-plated casing. Speer, Federal, Remington, Corbon, and Hornady to name a few. It's just to make the casing smoother for more reliable cycling. I carry either a 185gr Corbon DPX +P or 200gr Hornady TAP +P...both have nickel coating, and the TAP is notorious for it's super slick black coating.
Well, now that the question has been raised:
Nickel plating handgun cartridges began just after WW I when smokeless powder began coming on the scene for revolver cartridges. (Many early twentieth-century rounds were loaded with semi-smokeless powder.) Ammunition that was used by police agencies, .38 S&W, .38 Special, .45 Colt; were nickel plated to avoid the verdigris that built up on brass cartridges carried in leather cartridge loops. This is the green gunk that forms on brass.
When the .38 Super round was introduced, the nickel plating was the only distinction between the .38 Super and the .38 ACP rounds.
Now, there is no real need for nickel plating, and no reason for it except top indicate a premium loading or some special use round.
Old ammunition loaded for the Army by Frankford arsenal may appear to be nickel but is actually a tin coating. This on .45 S&W rounds.
And, it looks nice in the loops of a Buscadero rig.

Don't the nickel plated rounds have more knockdown power?:anim_lol:
ZUHR - loved your little laughing symbol
fivehourfrenzy - did you think he was serious?
anyway - i got on midway usa and yes it does appear that all the nickel plating cartridges are on the special HD stuff - looked like speer has the widest selection - they have nickel on a lot of their calibers
thanks for the input guys
In all seriousness, I did hear that they nickel plate them to help with extraction. I don't know if that is true or not, but sounds plausible.
I use Hornady XTP's in my carry pistol, because they look really cool and scary.
Well if nickel plating makes the casing smoother and less likely to hang up on a feed ramp, it can't hurt.
I'm with you on the XTPs...I'm assuming it's the TAP line (with XTP bullet) that has the black casing? Yeah they look mean as hell, but they're also very good SD loads. Supposedly the XTP expands at speeds down to 700fps, which is a plus for me.
fhf.. you ever heard of MFTW? That's internet language for ...
Marketing For The Win.
They have dupped you in spades my friend. Any amount of bullet travelling at 900+fps is going to do some damage. Granted, I believe it's 80% of gunshot victims survive their wounds, but that has nothing to do with bullet type, but bullet placement. Learning to shoot with accuracy has more to do with lethality than does bullet design, in my opinion. You put four rounds out of 8 over the heart, and you win. You put two out of 8 in the forehead, you win. I'll show you what I mean.
8 over the heart.
Some of you may have seen this already, but it exudes my point. Shoot to critical areas, don't depend on the bullet to do the work. Now, that being said, I'm gonna use the ugliest, fastest, meanest looking round I can find, and still hit where I mean to hit. This pistol was loaded with Hornady XTP's, and they went where I wanted them to, except for the last one, it was the flyer. (Oh, and Remedy is a friend of mine and I wanted to make him eat some words and pay up on a bet, he did.) I put 8 rounds over the heart, that person would be in bbbbbaaaaaaadddd shape regardless of bullet type. Ball ammo, Hollowpoints, in my opinion, hollowpoints only carry an advantage because I'm less likely to poke a clean hole thru them an hit Suzi the innocent bystander that I didn't account for in the millisecond decision making process. (Guess what, you are going to do about 60% or more of it wrong when under stress). Don't be fooled into buying one bullet type over the other because they say it'll expand faster at lower velocities.
It's a sham. Buy the bullets that feed well in your gun, if they don't feed, you can't shoot, if they don't shoot, it doesn't matter how fast they come out of your 3" barrel. Function over fantasy, hits over hype, remember that, please.
Oh I remember it just as much as anyone. But using a bullet that will expand at lower velocities won't make me shoot any differently than a bullet that doesn't. And trust me my friend, regardless of what bullet I use, none will come out of my 3" barrel at 900+fps. I'm lucky to get close to 800fps, and realistically I'm probably around 750fps. No, it's not based on a chrono, and I've heard from possibly you that you only gain 30-60fps per inch of barrel, but I believe that's on the basis that the barrel extends past the standard tested length, which is 5" for a .45ACP. I don't remember where I read it, but going down to a 3" barrel in a .45 drops muzzle velocity down as much as 40% or so. The Hornady TAP 200gr +P is rated at 1055fps, and the 185gr Corbon DPX +P is rated at 1075fps. Even a mere 30% drop in muzzle velocity from a 5" barrel to a 3" barrel would put me at 739fps in the TAPs and 753fps in the DPX. That's SLOW, and very few, if any, .45 auto JHP will expand at that speed, much less 5-7 yards away when it's going even slower.
Yes, bullet placement is key, and even if a 9mm expands fully to .45, a .45 will never shrink. However, there's a big difference in a .451" diameter bullet that doesn't expand, and one that expands to .700-.800" in diameter. I pick the ones that have the best chance of expanding at the low velocity they achieve out of my 3" barrel. I make sure they cycle reliably and are readily available, I practice with them, and I carry them with confidence. The bullet's only as good as the shooter, but there's no harm in picking a particular load that has a better chance of expanding than others. The Hornady TAP and Corbon DPX lead the scores in short-barrel ballistics, but I have yet to see tests from the SB Gold Dots from Speer (which I would guess would do very well).
Just for sh*ts and giggles, I would like to do some wetpack testing of my own. I realize wetpack doesn't replicate human body tissue even remotely as well as 10% calibrated ballistic gel, but it would give me an idea of which loads perform better than others in a consistent setting.
Please for the love of God, stop worring about tests and start worrying about bullet placement!!!!!!
Did that video not show you anything? Sure, stress is going to make me miss a little more, but bullets on target are going to do more than any one bullet you might get a hit on... Please.. if you can, show us what you can do in a hurry on a target. If you are hitting A's, I'll never say a word to you again about any testing you wanna do, but if you aren't hitting A's in rapid succession, please don't tell me about bullet velocity or expansiveness. I post vids to show one thing.. not "I'm better than you" but to show that what I have to say has some reasonably realistic basis in fact. The bullets hit where they hit when I pulled the trigger.
I really hope that you don't think I'm calling you out here, but man am I tired of hearing about bullet performance. HIT THE GD TARGET MULTIPLE TIMES!!! If you are using a 32ACP it'll be better than any super duper expanding-at-low-velocity round that misses 6 out of 8 times.
Focus more on bullet placement than bullet design. I'm not telling you this to be a jerk, but so that you can prepare for reality, because when you can't hit the bad guy with your first 10, he's gonna "pwn" your arse and your gonna be cut, or shot, or dead. Learn from those who have been there or done that, not from some ammo manufacturer. Yes, I've been there, done that, so please understand that I'm not talking out my butt.
I'm tired now.... wow is it exhausting to repeat ones self.
Come on man...you don't need to tell me about bullet placement. I know just as well as you do that a spray of .22LRs to COM or the face will end a fight way faster than a .44 mag that misses. The fact of the matter is I practice as much as I can, and regardless of what bullet I use, it's gonna hit where it's gonna hit. Using bullet A is not gonna change POI from bullet B, bullet C, or bullet X, Y, and Z.
But when I'm not at the range shooting, I can't do much research on bullet placement. COM is key, and the center of the chest is where you wanna put the lead until the BG drops. Regardless of bullet selection, that's a constant rule. Put the bullets in the BG's chest until he drops.
Trust me, I'm not sacrificing range time to read about terminal ballistics of different bullet designs. It's not like I'm sitting here debating, "Should I go to the range and become a more proficient defensive shooter, or should I stay home and try to find the golden bullet?" I have time for both. I practice as much as I have the time for and can afford, and bullet selection has no bearing whatsoever on the time I spend shooting and practicing quick and consistent hits on COM. Finding the suitable load does not interfere with my training, nor does it interfere with the fact that bullet placement is the first and foremost element in defending yourself with a gun.
I hope I'm making sense...I have control up until the point where I pull the trigger, and the bullet does the rest. If I hit COM over and over again, I've done my job as a SD shooter. And I would prefer that the load I'm carrying has some chance of expanding when it hits the BG. If and when I have to blast someone in SD, I want each and every bullet to 1) hit COM, preferably in the center of the chest, and 2) destroy as much of that BG's insides as possible. Hitting COM, like you said, is the most important aspect. But once I've done that, I want the bullet to inflict as much damage as possible.
So you see my friend, my bullet selection does not interfere with my practice. I think that's what you haven't understood up until this point.
If nickel plating actually aided extraction, don't you think the Army would specify nickel plating?
I think the co-efficient of friction of brass to steel is about optimum. How many nickel plated bearings do you see, compared to brass/bronze?
Bob Wright
Well, that presents a connundrum then. Why would they make it less efficient by nickel plating them? I'm gonna have to look into this, simply because it intrigues me. I'll see if I can find some info on co-efficient of friction on Brass to steel vs Nickel to steel. That won't be your standard google search me thinks. hehe.
Again, this is just a curiosity to me, not that it really matters what kind of bullet you use as long as it's a hit. Wait, did I say that already?:mrgreen:
Mr. Wright,
Perhaps I heard that about nickel plated when I was shooting alot of SASS. Could it have been because of black powder shooters and making it easier to clean up? Perhaps that's where I heard about it being "easier" and maybe the "extraction" part just jumped in there somehow. I do recall lots of nickel plated brass in loops though. It's been a while. I always used regular old brass, but I didn't shoot the stinky stuff.
I wonder what Wolf uses...probably rusted out iron or something, hahaha.
But seriously, the only jams I've ever had in my 1911 have been with non-nickel plated brass casings (CCI Blazer). Corbon, Speers, and Hornadys all run fine.
i recently read that the army did not go with it because it is easy to see
thus it is ok for us at an outdoor range to find them but the army doesn't want the bg to be able to identify from a distance
If I remember correctly, the nickel plated cases were a little stiffer, and harder to resize in reloading them. I seem to remember it requiring a little more pressure on the press. That would be the only definitive difference I can perceive in them, except as someone said, they do not mildew in leather.

Monday July 23rd, 2012 4:24pm
Hempstead, NY - A 14-game schedule that includes eight home games highlight the 2011 Hofstra Men's Lacrosse schedule, Pride Head Coach Seth Tierney announced Monday.
Hofstra, which will have its earliest regular season opening ever in 2011, begins the season in the friendly confines of James M. Shuart Stadium on Tuesday, February 15 against the Red Raiders of Colgate. It will be the first meeting between the two schools since 1961. The Pride, who will open the season with five consecutive non-conference games, will travel to Sacred Heart in Fairfield, Connecticut on Saturday, February 19 before returning home to face NCAA Championship-participant Princeton on Saturday, February 26. It will be the 24th meeting between Hofstra and Princeton in a series that began in 1972.
With NCAA Championship participants Johns Hopkins and Army electing not to have Hofstra on their schedules in 2011, the Tigers are one of two 2010 NCAA tournament teams on the Pride schedule. But 10 of Hofstra's 14 opponents have played in the NCAA Championship, including eight since 2005.
"We are excited about our 2011 schedule," Pride Head Coach Seth Tierney said. "It is a nice blend of new and old rivals. We have played 13 of our 14 opponents in the past with the only exception being new CAA member St. Joseph's University. But we expect they, too, will quickly become a rival with a conference title at stake."
The Pride hit the road to start March, traveling to Cambridge, Massachusetts to face Harvard on Saturday, March 5. Hofstra returns home to face the Air Force on Sunday, March 13. It will be the first meeting between the Pride and the Falcons since 2001.
The 2011 Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) season begins on Saturday, March 19 at defending CAA champions, Delaware. The Pride had a thrilling 12-11 victory over the Blue Hens to open the New Meadowlands Stadium in 2010. Hofstra will host Big East opponent St. John's on Tuesday, March 22 before returning to the CAA schedule against Drexel at James M. Shuart Stadium on Saturday, March 26, and at Towson on Saturday, April 2.
Manhattan College makes its second trip to Long Island to face Hofstra on Tuesday, April 5 before the Pride travel to new CAA-member St. Joseph's University (PA) on Saturday, April 9 and non-conference opponent Fairfield on Saturday, April 16. Hofstra closes the regular season with two CAA home games against Massachusetts on Saturday, April 23, and Penn State on Saturday, April 30.
The top four teams during the CAA regular season will compete in the CAA Championship Tournament on Wednesday, May 4 with the finals scheduled for Saturday, May 7. The 2011 NCAA Championship begins with first round play on the Saturday and Sunday, May 14 and 15. Quarterfinals are scheduled for the following weekend (May 21-22) with Hofstra University hosting the Southern Quarterfinal on May 21. The Northern Quarterfinal will be held at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. The NCAA Championship weekend will be held M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore on Saturday, May 28 for the semifinals and Monday, May 30 for the championship game.
All times TBA
Tuesday, February 15th - Colgate University
Saturday, February 19th - at Sacred Heart University
Saturday, February 26th - Princeton University

Not a "duck recipe, but thought was worth passing on.
My aunt fixed this for Sunday Dinner the last time we visited. She said she just got the recipe from one of Paula Deen's cook books, but it was delicious. I was curious if anyone has had this, and would be interested in hearing any improvements on the recipe.
Servings: 6 servings
1 cup grated mozzarella
1 9-inch prebaked deep dish pie shell
1/2 cup chopped green onion
10 fresh basil leaves, chopped
4 tomatoes, peeled and sliced
1 cup grated cheddar
1 cup mayonnaise
salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
First, blanch the tomatoes and slice. Place the tomatoes in the collinder to drain.
Using a medium sized bowl, mix mayonnaise, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, salt and pepper.
Layer the tomato slices, basil, and onion in pie shell. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the mayonnaise and cheese mixture on top of the tomatoes and bake for 30 minutes or until lightly browned.
To serve, cut into slices and serve warm.

Poet Carl Sandburg immortalized Chicago as the "City of the Big Shoulders," paying tribute to Chicago's formative brawn. The self-made, industrious town rebuilt after a devastating 1871 fire, nurturing new styles of architecture and distinct flare for innovation. A green apron of lakefront parks buffers the city's 29 miles (47 kilometers) of Lake Michigan shoreline from which 77 neighborhoods unfurl westward spanning the downtown Loop, the elegant Gold Coast, the bohemian Wicker Park, and deep ethnic pockets such as Chinatown. The combination of grit and grandeur here is somehow purely American. Loving Chicago, said author Nelson Algren, is "like loving a woman with a broken nose, you may well find lovelier lovelies. But never a lovely so real."

What is transition?
Transition is a process of moving from pediatric health care to adult health care. This transition often presents new challenges for youth with chronic illness or special needs and their families. Youth need to learn, practice and become confident in the skills they need to manage their own health. Families need to learn about the adult services that will help support their teen in the adult world.
Youth and their families often develop strong bonds with their pediatric care team members over time. Moving on to adult care can seem scary. The transition process takes several years. There are specific skills that teens can begin to learn when they are young that can lead to greater independence as adults. Youth, families and providers working together as a team will provide the best possible outcome during the transition process.
Although transition to adult health care is one part of the transition process, there are other transition issues that youth need to deal with during the process. These include adult services, education, employment, financial preparation, transportation and recreation. When planning for transition, consider who the youth or family would like to have help from. A nurse or physician team that has worked with the youth or family regularly to provide specialty care may be an ideal candidate.
What are concerns related to transition? Typical barriers that youth and families might experience include:
See related topics below:
What is a transition plan?
Health issues that adults face are different than a child's health issues. It is important to have a primary care provider and specialty providers who are experienced in addressing adult health care issues.
Transition is a natural part of the developmental process from childhood to adulthood, but it can be scary. After many years of being part of the nurturing, family-centered pediatric health care system and developing strong bonds with various health care team members, it can be hard to make a change. Youth, families, providers and the community should work together as a team to promote the best possible outcome during the transition process.
Steps to consider:
What information will the adult providers need?
When a teen turns 18, he or she automatically becomes his or her own legal guardian regardless of mental health or cognitive impairments, unless the court has appointed a legal guardian.
At age 18, the youth should be signing his or her own consents for procedures, authorizations, release of information, discharge instructions or other legal forms. Some youth with cognitive or mental health impairments are unable to make their own financial and medical decisions and need legal guardians.
If there are concerns at 14 years old that the youth will be unable to make his or her own financial and medical decisions as an adult, goals should be incorporated into the individualized education plan to help develop decision-making skills. Decision-making skills should be assessed annually. If there are concerns at 16 or 17 years old that the youth will be unable to make his or her own financial and medical decisions as an adult, a competency assessment will need to be completed. Contact a social worker to help initiate this process.
"Incompetent" is described by the State of Wisconsin as the level at which a youth is impaired in providing for his or her own care or custody, has diminished level of functioning in aspects of daily living and is unable to make his or her own informed and educated decisions due to a delay, disability or incapacity.
As youth reach the teenage years and transition into adulthood, different types of insurances become available or unavailable to them.
A youth may be discontinued from his or her parent's private insurance due to age or change in student status, or may become ineligible for certain public aid programs.
It is very important that every youth with medical needs obtain insurance available to them through public aid and community programs regardless of age or stage in life.
Identify the type of insurance that applies:
Youth with special needs leaving high school have the same desire and need to participate in the community as their peers. Many youth with special needs require extra time and help transitioning from school to community life. Families are a key player in decisions related to transition to the community.
Preparation for transition covers areas that most people need when becoming an adult:
If the youth has an individualized education plan, schools are mandated by law (starting at age 14) to write and implement a plan that includes a coordinated set of activities that help prepare the student for life after high school.
Transition goals are developed collaboratively by youth, family and school staff based on individual strengths, preferences and interests of the youth. If the youth or family expresses an interest in postsecondary education, know that rights and responsibilities within postsecondary education are different from high school.
Common postsecondary education options are:
Participating in leisure activities allows people to connect with others and develop social networks, friendships, hobbies and interests. Many communities have opportunities for both inclusive and segregated forms of social/recreational activities. These can include:
Thought should be given to where the youth will live when the family is no longer able to provide care. Most youth (with or without a disability) experience an increasing need for independence as they develop and mature.
Youth with special needs require extra time and help developing skills for living away from home. As parents age, caregiving becomes more difficult. Ranges of residential living options are available in most counties. Choices are made based on individual needs and necessary levels of support (personal care, money management, meal planning, etc.). Levels of support can change over time so living arrangements can evolve.
Common options include:
General information on transition
Self-managment and self-advocacy
Legal issues (insurance, guardianship)
Independent living (education, employment, recreation, housing)

ETSU collecting coats for the needy
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - The colder weather is setting in and some may not have anything to bundle up with this winter. That's why East Tennessee State University is collecting coats for the needy on campus.
The coats are for anyone with an ETSU ID. The collection starts now and runs through October 31.
They are asking for new or gently used coats for men, women, and children. Rebecca Alexander is the assistant director of the counseling center at ETSU; she tells us this is something that's very important, "Worrying about the basic survival things through the winter they're not at the optimal place to be academically successful or doing their job."
You can drop off coats at the Basler Center for Physical Activity (CPA) equipment room, the ETSU Counseling Center, Lyle House, Facilities Management paint department, the College of Public Health dean's office, room 206 in the Charles S. Sherrod Library, room W205 in the ETSU/Mountain States Health Alliance Athletic Center, and the Catholic Center on 734 W. Locus Street.
The coats will be handed out from November 4 - 7 at the Basler Center of Physical Activity Equipment Room.

The campaign against Muslims in Europe reached a new high in slime when Austrian politician Suzanne Winter blasted Muslims and said they should go back to where they came from in the Mediterranian area. She went on to accuse Muhammad of writing the Koran while controlled by "epileptic fits" and of being a "child molester" because he married a six year old girl. She claimed, in an interview, that child abuse is "widespread" among Muslim men and that Austria is facing a "tsunami of Muslim immigration" which threatens to transform her Christian nation within twenty years into a Muslim one. Her comments aroused a fury of protest in Austria and officials are investigating whether she could be charged with incitement to racial hatred for her remarks.
A few weeks ago in Germany, Ronald Koch, a conservative politician, thundered on about "criminal young foreigners" as part of his campaign to stir up hatred in the quest for electoral victory. Perhaps, Ms. Winter is unaware that Muslims lived in Spain for hundreds of years and that most Muslim are found in Asia, not in the Mediterranean region. She is resorting to the oldest political strategy in the book, attack those most easiest to attack in hope that hate can generate a few extra votes. At least Ms. Winter is maintaining an old Austrian political approach, first used by her fellow Austrian, Adolf Hitler, but in this case the enemy is the Muslim, not the Jew.

have you ever forgotten to open a present
no never
have you ever forgotten to open a present
Have you ever had an argument with anyone on Christmas
I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas
I don't think so
Have you ever gone on a sleigh ride?
Nerer.. besides, we hardly see any snow where I live...
Have you ever sung Carols for your love??? (I havent, Im so shy..)
And so, as Tiny Tim observed, "God Bless us!! Everyone!!''
A Christmas Carol - Charles Dickens (1843)
yes i have ..but she puts her fingers in her ears..
have you ever had trouble sleeping on christmas eve..
Have you ever locked presents?
When it seems the magic slipped away...
We find it all again on Christmas Day.
*Seeing isn't believing.Believing is seeing.*
have you ever been tempted to peek at presents under the tree..
Have you ever put the gifts under the tree as they are wrapped instead of on Christmas Eve
I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas
have you ever gone to the christmas eve mass..

Weekend Bookworm: My Superhero
23 August 2013 , 10:34 AM by Rob Minshull
My Superhero by Chris Owen & Moira Court
It used to be easy to be a superhero. Don a mask, throw a towel over your shoulders, and maybe wear your underpants on the outside of your trousers.
The really daring could jump off high walls or garage roofs: a broken bone was guaranteed hero status, super or not.
Many years ago, my Grandma worked in what could accurately be described a sweatshop close to the notorious Stangeways prison on the fringes of Manchester city centre.
Jewish clothing manufacturers had long been established in that part of town and Grandma dutifully put in long hours; a hard worker, a smile on her face, a huge Star of David on a chain around her neck and as many gold rings as she had fingers.
Jimmy worked there too. He liked boys instead of girls - the word "gay" meant happy in those days - and, although the women gossiped that he liked to wear ladies tights under his jeans, Jimmy was tolerated and had the biggest heart in the building.
A long time later, Jimmy would patch my jeans so I could look like a punk, but when I was little he made me my very first - and only - Batman outfit.
I was never brave enough to jump off high walls (although my brother was) but I was the proudest kid in the street. My mask was a proper one and my cape was made of a shiny black cloth. Black Batman undies were sewn into grey leggings and I was, quite simply, invincible.
Chris Owen obviously knows all about superheroes too.
"Superheroes - usually
are tall and very muscly.
They're often blessed with handsome looks,
and spend their weekends catching crooks."
Written in inspiring rhyme, Owen's story explores the whole gamut of superhero attributes: amazing strength, incredible speed, snazzy bodysuits and, of course, special powers.
All the superheroes in the book have one thing in common however: they are animals. Numbats, bears, armadillos, whales and cheetahs. Elephants, eagles, goats and even beetles have amazing abilities and secret skills which would shame the bravest of caped crusaders.
The end of the book contains a page detailing all the facts about each animal featured in the story but, more importantly, the rhyme and repetition in the story invite even the youngest or most reluctant reader to join in. After each animal's powers are revealed, it's "KABOOM! KAPOW! KABAM! KASPLAT! My superhero's not like that."
Just who or what is the superhero who is "not like that"? The rhyming text is beautifully complemented by Moira Court's highly original illustrations. Bold and endearing, her animal superheroes leap out at the reader and enhance the thrill and expectation of how the story will unfold.
Like the rhyming pattern, the message of the book itself is both charming and deceptively simple: all those superheroes are pretty special and have some amazing powers but, right at the end, all is revealed.
"KABOOM! KAPOW! KABAM! KASPLAT! My superhero's more than that. He's not as strong. He's not as tough. But ... He's my Dad - and that's enough."
My Superhero is an adorable book. Vibrant rhymes and engagingly illustrated, what could be better than an ending which acknowledges that Dad is the best superhero of all?

Hoosiers have a special opportunity to help the snowy egret and other non-game and endangered wildlife win in the battle of conservation – and to get a reward in the form of a federal tax write off for those who itemize deductions.
To help, you just have to make a donation to Indiana's Nongame Wildlife Fund on your state tax return.
The money you donate goes directly to the protection and management of more than 750 wildlife species in Indiana – from songbirds and salamanders to state-endangered Trumpeter swans and spotted turtles. Through efforts financed by this fund, Indiana has seen the reintroduction of peregrine falcons to Hoosier skies, and an increase in our bald eagle population.
If you file your own taxes, look to make a donation to the fund when you get to the refund area of INfreefile, or on the tax return if filing by paper. If using a paid preparer, let him or her know about your intentions up front. A contribution made to the Nongame Wildlife Fund is fully deductible if you itemize your deductions on your federal tax return. If you make a donation, you will be eligible to claim this year's contribution as a deduction on next year's federal itemized deduction schedule.
If you are not receiving a refund, but would like to make a donation anyway, you can make a donation directly to the Nongame Wildlife Fund. Go to www.in.gov/dnr/fishwild/3316.htm for instructions, and learn how donations have helped Indiana's endangered wildlife.
When individuals like you invest in a good cause like the Nongame Wildlife Fund, Indiana has the reinforcements it needs to help win the battle for the white-tailed deer…and the magnificent frigatebirds…and the river otters…and the bobcats…and – well, you get the idea.

a-MAYS-ing Effort Lifts Green Bay to 10th-Straight Home Win
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Senior Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) returned to the court on Saturday for Green Bay (18-4, 8-1 HL), but his frontcourt mate stole the headlines to lead the Phoenix to a bounce back victory over visiting Wright State (13-12, 5-5 HL) at the Resch Center. Junior Greg Mays (Chicago, Ill.) scored 17 of his 22 points in the second half, making 9-of-10 shots from the field overall as the hosts won 62-55 for their 10th-straight home victory.
After Green Bay used a 17-5 run to build an eight-point first-half lead, Wright State scored the final six points before the break to cut the deficit to 29-27.
The Raiders' run continued coming out of the locker room as the visitors scored the first seven points of the second half to take a 34-29 lead. Mays responded for the Phoenix, who was coming off a 75-60 loss at Valparaiso on Wednesday which snapped the team's 12-game winning streak.
Mays drained a baseline jumper, threw down a dunk in transition and sank a pair of free throws to start an 8-0 run which reclaimed the lead at 37-34. Wright State tied the game at 37, but Mays responded with a jumper. The Raiders tied the game at 39, and Mays knocked down a three-pointer to start an 11-0 run that put the hosts in front 50-39 with 8:07 to play.
Wright State cut the margin to six, and Mays again scored for the Phoenix. The Raiders cut the Phoenix lead to 55-50, and Mays used a beautiful backcut to score in the lane for a seven-point lead with 3:08 on the clock.
Mays made his first eight shots from the field before he missed and finished with 22 points, six rebounds, a block and a steal in 32 minutes.
WSU refused to go away, with Matt Vest making a three-pointer on the next possession. This time, it was the more predictable Phoenix player who responded. Junior Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) knocked down a 25-foot three-pointer late in the shot clock to put Green Bay ahead 60-53.
Sykes, the Horizon League's leading scorer, totaled 18 points, six rebounds and five assists while playing 39 minutes, a season high for a regulation game. Mays and Sykes combined to score 27 of Green Bay's 33 points after halftime.
Brown, who missed the game at Valparaiso due to a shoulder injury and was a game-time decision, played 29 minutes and tallied six points, four rebounds and three blocked shots.
Green Bay held the Raiders to just 37.5 percent shooting from the field and held a 34-31 edge in rebounding. Forcing 16 turnovers, the Phoenix defense totaled 11 steals and seven blocks.
In the midst of a three-game homestand, the Phoenix hosts UIC on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. at the Resch Center.

Today I have received my PP#2 rangefinder made from real Perspex® by our own terminal fettler. First of all, the last time someone offered an accurate Perspex® rangefinder clear piece was long, long time ago (SingleSeat was the guy) so having again the chance to own this is really appreciated.
The rangefinder comes between two foam pieces which are inside a plastic box which is inside a protected bubble wrap envelope. A nuclear bomb wouldn't even make a single scratch to it When opened you can find the assembled rangefinder with an extra Polaroid® lens cast, almost impossible to tell from a real one. The outter rangefinder support is made from polyurethane resin, flawless, sharp and crisp and almost ready to paint. I would really like to learn how terminal makes the moulds for those because... man, you have to see it!
The Perspex® bloc is really clean, sharp and feels really smooth when handled. It attaches to the outter box with two magnets which are attached to a very thin aluminium piece on the Perspex® piece and, when assembled, it really fits like a glove, no seams, almost "fully pressurized".
Replica on the left, genuine on the right:
And the last pic, the box with something I've been collecting over the years
So... Really, if you're able to get one, just buy it, no regrets for sure

Discussion in 'Great Skate Debate' started by reese, Mar 26, 2014.
WTF is wrong with this man?
We should get rid of different distances in speedskating. All athletes are probably the best at long distances, so no need to let them also gain points (or in their case medals) from shorter ones. Although it sounds like he wants to kill some of speedskating too.
And quite honestly, among all the crazy talk. This might be the craziest.
OMG! It is the junior age category that causes so much misunderstanding, not the senior one! (At least in the US, where most int. juniors are domestic seniors. Other countries may not have this problem.)
If Speedy wants it, he'll get it, I am sorry to say.
Getting rid of $peedy would be the most positive change in the sport right now.
Isn't this really where the sport has been shifting for years now? Especially once they adopted cop, the LP just really became a double length SP. What's the point of it really, it's lost it's entire original intent. Whatever we thought we had in the "free skate" we lost years ago, slowly chiseled away at until cop killed it for good.
I am not going to travel long distances to watch skaters do one program each (exhibition excluded, since I don't care if I miss those). Skaters on skating shows like Friggin' Stars on Ice do two programs.
Oh, this isn't an early April fool's...
Getting rid of the SP and combining Jr/sr worlds just sounds like a plan to save money. Does that mean the ISU loses money for each extra day f the championships? Do the ad sales and ticket sales for the SPs not cover the costs of holding them?
If they get rid of SD ice dance would truly lose the tiny bit of dance it has left.
Ugh. I think this calls for figure skating's independence from the ISU stat. It makes no sense for a speed skater who admittedly knows little about figure skating to preside over it, and vice-versa for a figure skater about speedskating should that ever happen.
Back during the 6.0 days, I would have been up in arms and protesting in anger. Now, I find the SP to be sort of redundant and am no longer sure what the point of if it is anymore. They need to seriously restructure it to make it more distinguishable from the LP or get rid of it. Even the SD has moved away from dancing and rhythms and become a canvas for couples to just do COP-recognized elements.
Some of those "ideas" in that article are completely moronic. Even the speed skating ones have me beyond miffed.
yes.. kristi.. speedy is for real..
Interesting. I didn't realize he hated skating so much.
What? This has to be some bizarre early April Fools Day joke. Even the speed skating remarks are ridiculous! Way to kill two sports with one idiot!
How in the H-E- double hockey sticks did this clown ever get such power? He wants to leave a legacy? He will be remembered as the man that killed figure skating. (he is already over halfway there)
Eliminate Cinquanta before he eliminates skating.
& the comments about no other sports having more than one "event" are factually inaccurate. Examples include numerous track & field events like decathlon, etc. & gymnastics all around. Keeping judging anonymous is contrary to resolving complaints about how figure skating is judged. Then, complaining about the lack of country representation in speed skating while reducing that in figure skating through qualifying rounds, scores,etc. I think he may have lost his marbles! Ugh.
WTH is this man smokin? It's like the ramblings of a mad man. Damn straight he'll kill 2 sports at once. 2 that I happen to love. Hasn't he done enough damage? Step aside please, like now! God I hope no one is listening.
WHAT IS THIS CRAP??? Can't he be impeached or something? IDGI.
I heart Kristi.
Doesn't Speedy have to retire at some point? Like tomorrow?
I hate to say this...but for once he makes sense.
The short program has become unnecessary . The free program is just two short programs glued together. With the introduction of the team event I see no need to keep the short programs alive (at least for the singles). Get rid of them all together.
What I do suggest is a better format for the team competition. I mean the current one is pointless.
Is this part of some master plan that when the reins are handed over to DG everyone is relieved?
Eliminate Short programs?
Figure Skating just died
Cinquanta has already done so much damage to the sport. If he gets away with this, and short program's go, then the sport is completely dead. Cinquanta should just go, and go now.
But if there is only one program instead of two, that gives the crooked judges one less chance to cheat. Maybe this is $peedy's way to clean up the judging without, you know, actually having to do anything.
I think it's all a plot to get us focused on something besides the Sochi Olympics .
This is what we get for mocking the team event.
Eliminating Speedy will be the best thing that could happen to figure skating in my memory at least.
But it also makes cheating a lot less work. It's definitely easier to get away with cheating in only one segment than in two.
Besides, the more data you have for the skaters, the more likely you are to be able to gauge the skaters' abilities correctly. For instance, two programs will give you more information about the skaters than one. I mean, what if each skater did only one program, lasting for 1 minute? How much information would you gain in that 1 minute to determine the best skater? And luck would play a bigger role than ever.
I thought this was an April Fool's joke. If this happens, then skating, which is already anemic, is pretty much dead.
The next thread would no doubt be titled:
Cinquanta Wants to Eliminate Figure Skating

Eyes > Eye Primer
8.5 g
Mary Kay® Eye Primer is a waterproof formula that glides on smoothly to extend the wear of eye color and prevent it from creasing and smudging.
The skin around the eyes has fewer sebaceous glands and less collagen and elastin than skin elsewhere on the face. And, as people age, the fat pad beneath the dermis diminishes, causing the skin to appear even thinner and the hollowed-out appearance under the eyes. These unique characteristics of eye-area skin require extra attention.
Apply a small amount to the eyelid prior to applying eye color. Blend gently using your fingertip.

I have turkey all around three of my yards and they seem to stay clear of the electric fence but the bears do try the fence out. I lost three hives on one of the warm spells we had this winter, seems like there is always something that wants to kill bees. Sparky, I will trade you some bears for your turkeys . JOHN
swallows are hard on my hives and robins sit on the landing board or top of the hive and eat away. i can keep the robins off the hives, but not the swallows out of the air.

I found this website through an excellent article in the September TNA Ancestors magazine. The aim of this voluntary, self funded group is to photograph every war grave and memorial worldwide. A huge undertaking, but one which the group obviously intend to complete. The results of their endeavours are available online through a searchable database.
This website compliments the Commonwealth War Graves Commission site and is one that I shall from now on use regularly.

The past few weeks have been somewhat chaotic in the technology industry. Not only were nVidia and AMD both set to launch two new graphics cards within weeks of each other, which is bad enough, but we also had the peculiar legitimised leaked launch of the HD4850, which allowed performance figures and card shots but not architectural explanations, and then, out of the blue, nVidia also announced the 9800GTX+ which is a die-shrunk, higher-clocked version of the existing 9800 GTX. All of which leaves muggins here feeling a little cross eyed and sore of head.
The best solution, it was deemed by yours truly, was to ignore all the wailing and gnashing and just get down to the basic business of churning through reviews. First up was nVidia's enormous, expensive, and incredibly fast high-end card, the GTX280, which is based on its GT200 chip. Now, it's the turn of ATI with its RV770 chip that will be coming to market as the HD4870 and HD 4850 cards.
Both will feature 800 Stream Processors, 40 texture units, and 16 ROPs all of which we'll talk about in more detail shortly. What essentially differentiates the two cards is clock speeds, memory configurations, and price (obviously). HD 4870 will be clocked at 750MHz, use 900MHz (3600MHZ effectively) GDDR5 memory and cost around £230. Meanwhile HD 4850 will run at 625MHz, use 993MHz (1986MHz effectively) GDDR3 memory, and will cost £130.
These prices are in drastic contrast to the two cards based on GT200 that nVidia just launched; GTX 280 is selling for over £400 and the GTX260 is around £260. So, once again it would seem ATI has come up short when it comes to performance and is trying to undercut nVidia instead. Well that's one way of looking at it but ATI sees things a little differently.
The traditional way graphics cards have been developed is to aim for the top with large expensive chips that win performance awards. The lower performing mainstream chips are then rolled out a few weeks or months down the line. However, with RV770, ATI is saying it has intentionally developed a smaller less powerful chip than GT200 because it's aiming for the more lucrative performance/mainstream market - the type of people that will be willing to spend £100 to £200 - rather than the ultra high-end folk that will be willing to fork out £400+.
Whether that's true or if it's all just marketing spin, I'll leave to you to decide, but it certainly makes sense in a way. True, the margins in this sector of the market aren't as high as the ultra high-end but the volume is orders of magnitude larger. In the meantime ATI can work on its upcoming HD4870 X2 (or whatever it will be called) that will combine two RV770 chips on one board and leverage ATI's more and more impressive Crossfire performance to create a single board that will compete at the high-end.
The other reason I'm inclined to believe that ATI isn't just spinning is because RV770 looks like a seriously competitive solution. In fact ATI could easily have got away with charging considerably more for this card. That and it makes sense to move away from large monolithic GPUs and work on multi-GPU solutions as they're considerably more scalable. If ATI can master its multi-GPU solutions to the point where they work seamlessly (i.e. games developers and driver teams don't have to optimise their software) it will be able to produce cheaper, more powerful cards than ever before.

FOX hosts join Drudge sidekick in bashing Michael Moore
Research ››› ››› GABE WILDAU
On May 10, writer Andrew Breitbart -- "who works on the Drudge Report from his home in West Hollywood," according to The Washington Post on March 2 -- appeared as a guest on the FOX News Channel's morning show to accuse filmmaker and author Michael Moore of lying about the circumstances surrounding Disney's decision not to allow Moore's latest documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11, to be distributed.
But even before introducing Breitbart, FOX & Friends co-hosts Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade offered their own views of Moore:
KILMEADE: Our next guest says the recent conflict between Michael Moore and Walt Disney is a big publicity stunt. We're talking about Michael Moore, the documentarian who makes stuff up?
DOOCY: Yeah, that's right. Here to explain from L.A. is Andrew Breitbart. He is the co-author of Hollywood, Interrupted. And he joins us live from Hollywood, and we are interrupting him. Good morning to you, Andrew.
BREITBART: Hey, good morning. Thanks for having me again.
DOOCY: OK, so Michael Moore apparently is having trouble with Disney, says that Disney is pulling the rug out from underneath of him. But you say this is, this is just a big fat lie, that he's known all along he wasn't going to get a distribution deal from Disney.
BREITBART: Michael Moore's been lying for ten years. Every time that guy lies he gains a pound. He's like a culinary Pinocchio. ...
DOOCY: Well, how is Michael Moore regarded in Hollywood? He -- you know, his movies, his documentaries like Bowling for Columbine -- they've won awards and stuff like that. Do people like that guy?
BREITBART: Yeah, they love him. They love the sort of anti-middle American vibe that the guy gives off because he's from Flint, Michigan, so he can ostensibly claim to be speaking for Middle America. But the guy lives on the Upper West Side, and he's the classic elitist.
KILMEADE: All right. Let's move on. So we know that it's [the controversy surrounding Moore's film] fake -- you know, propagated to distribute it -- because he was on every nightly news show and we were talking about it.
In addition to uncritically affirming Breitbart's assertions about Moore, Doocy and Kilmeade failed to disclose that, as a self-described "righty," Breitbart has an ideological motive for casting aspersions on Moore. *
According to The Miami Herald on September 1, 2003, Breitbart maintains and updates The Drudge Report website when the site's proprietor, Matt Drudge, is away. Matt Drudge once proclaimed, "Screw journalism! The whole thing's a fraud anyway." And according to a February 1999 article in Information Today, "[W]hen Brill's Content [a now-defunct monthly media-watch magazine] reviewed the 51 stories Drudge labeled 'Exclusive' between January and September 1998, it found that of the 31 stories that actually were exclusive, 10 (32 percent) were untrue and/or never happened, 11(36 percent) were true, and the accuracy of the remaining 10 (32 percent) is debatable or still unknown."
Breitbart is also co-author of the recent book Hollywood, Interrupted: Insanity Chic in Babylon -- The Case Against Celebrity (published by John Wiley & Sons in February 2004). In an April 18 review published in the Ottawa Sun, Liz Braun called the book "mean-spirited in the extreme and written in a dishonest and inflammatory fashion." Publishers Weekly wrote, "Not since Hedda Hopper and Louella Parsons have two journalists (Breitbart feeds stories to Internet scandalmonger Matt Drudge and [co-author Mark] Ebner wrote for Spy) gathered more mean-spirited gossip about celebrities they condemn as sick and depraved. This diatribe is so unrelentingly negative that it loses all power to persuade." On March 15, Newsday's Liz Smith called the book "an unabashedly right-wing, conservative, one-note samba on celebrity culture."
CORRECTION: On May 12, Media Matters for America reported that during a May 10 appearance on FOX & Friends, "FOX News Channel failed to disclose Breitbart's association with [Matt] Drudge". In fact, the following words appeared on screen (as Chyron text) for four seconds during Breitbart's appearance: "Breitbart is a contributor to "The Drudge Report." We regret our error.

Kathrine Davies runs 147th Marathon for Dad
05 July 2013 , 6:25 PM by nicole gundi
Kathrine Davies comes from a running family but she was slow off the mark.
"I was sort of a let down. I was the only one out of the first three children who hadn't done a marathon by the time I was 15, so I was a bit of a loser back then".
But she's making up for it in a very special way.
On Sunday, Kathrine Davies will be running 42 kilometres in the Gold Coast Marathon and she'll be thinking of her dad all the way.
"I'v'e got a photo of him going on the back of my university shirt that I'll be wearing with all the other people in their red".
Kathrine's only run one marathon before but her dad has run 146.
He started running when he was 39. He's 82 now and had a fall at the start of the year which left him with head injuries and memory loss.
Kathrine says her had always thought he could reach the 150 marathon milestone, but now that he can't she'll run the rest for him.
"He actually thinks he will be running in it as well so, he's asked when the paperwork is going to arrive for him to run in it".
"I'll be putting it down for him even though it'll be against my name, but it's for him".
Kathrine's running with the 500 strong Griffith University team and Scott Lamond asked her if she's ready for the challenge?

Thomas Vanek (F) from Buffalo Sabres to Graz 99ers
Status: Confirmed
Date: 10/01/2012
Player: Thomas Vanek (F)
From: Buffalo Sabres
To: Graz 99ers
Information: NHL lockout contract
Source: Link
Buffalo Sabres prospects look to make their mark with Rochester Amerks
'"There's a lot of talent in the league, more than usual," said Leggio, the Amerks team MVP a year ago. "I want to prove I'm right there with them, or better."'
Mark Mancari back with Buffalo Sabres organization
'"I spent my whole career here and had a lot of opportunities here," the 27-year-old native of London, Ontario, said. "I had to leave. It happens. First time being an unrestricted free agent, you get some offers and you go where you think you're going to get an opportunity."'
Sabres stuck in Rochester trying to embrace unique opportunity
'"You just hope there's a deal done before Christmas, that's for sure," Foligno said Friday following the Amerks' first on-ice camp session. "But for me, I'm excited to go down to Rochester and develop again. I'm still young. I'm only 21. I got a lot of years ahead of me."'
Foligno, Hodgson happy to get started with Amerks
'"I'm excited," Hodgson said. "We'll get some serious hockey going. The AHL's going to be a good league this year. Obviously, everyone wants the lockout to end and get the NHL going, but I'm excited to get started here."'
Buffalo Sabres' brass will keep close watch on Rochester Amerks
'"Marcus (Foligno), Luke (Adam), Cody Hodgson, you want to spend time with them," Ruff said, "and we want to evaluate the young guys, too; guys like (Jerome) Gauthier-Leduc and (Mark) Pysyk." At the same time, Ruff said he doesn't want to be intruding on what Amerks coach Ron Rolston and assistants Chadd Cassidy and Chris Taylor are doing."'
Sabres' Vanek thinking about taking game home to Austria
'"It would be a change. It would be definitely fun," Vanek said Thursday inside the Northtown Center after skating with about eight other Sabres. "But again, I would love to play here in Buffalo. I'm here with my family. We're settled. That would be more exciting to me."'
James Patrick has been locked out as player, coach
'"It felt like I was busy. Now as a coach I really can identify with guys who don't have a job and are struggling with what to do. It is a bit of a challenge."'
Sabres veterans set to practice on their own
'All in all, the locked-out Buffalo Sabres say, their on-ice workouts haven't been bad. They've usually had 20 to 25 guys participate in their weekday sessions, enough for a decent scrimmage or a four-team, three-on-three tournament.'
Locked-out Sabres pursuing new jobs
'"I came out of there thinking, 'Huh, this might take a while,'" Pominville said. "Now you start hearing guys saying the whole season might be lost and stuff like that. I'm still one of those that wants to stay optimistic we'll get it done. Hopefully, it's sooner than later. I wouldn't be surprised if it takes a while."'
Andrej Sekera (D) from Buffalo Sabres to HC Slovan Bratislava
Status: Confirmed
Date: 09/27/2012
Player: Andrej Sekera (D)
From: Buffalo Sabres
To: HC Slovan Bratislava
Information: NHL lockout contract

Energy supplier reaches deal to power Sabres
'As part of the sponsorship deal, the Sabres will put New Wave's name on the penalty boxes at the arena and the team's power play will be branded with the company's name within the arena and on Sabres broadcasts.'
Buffalo Sabres tap local energy firm to be its official electricity service provider
'"We cannot even begin to express our excitement to begin this endeavor with such an iconic and beloved Buffalo institution," said Ryan Lilley, Vice President of Business Development at New Wave Energy Corporation. "We have developed a strong reputation and affinity for prosperity and economic growth in Buffalo, and we felt that with the emerging Canalside projects and the continuing improvements the Buffalo Sabres have made within their organization and throughout the community, that this was the perfect time to solidify a partnership with a team that means so much to our region and to us personally. This valued partnership will also allow us the opportunity to offer our discounted electricity services to a much wider audience of businesses and residencies throughout WNY and beyond. We could not be more proud."'
Wednesday's Rochester Coverage
Sales not the right tonic for Peters
'"I'm not a coach, but I enjoy doing it," said Peters, who is often aided by former Sabre Jay McKee. "I still have a good rapport with the guys.… It's a lot of fun to be able to help out. I'm being serious about it. I know Jay's being serious about it. I want to help contribute to these guys staying in shape during this lockout. This isn't fun and games. This is serious."'

Chidhambaram's friend and Ram heard this conversation. They went to Chithambaram and tried to explain what was happening. As the story of the movie was a real one, heroine started to love Kathir. Chithambaram felt that it was a wrong decision to take Kathir's own love story in to a serial. They also worried that if Devi came to know about this story then the situation would be worst than ever. Kathir was in a bad mood, so he started quarrelling with camera man.

Kid Rock: No regrets for Romney support, "no hard feelings" with Obama
posted at 10:48 am on December 3, 2012 by Mary Katharine Ham
I like Kid Rock, like a lot of his music, and even find him inexplicably attractive, but I digress. Point being, even if you're not a fan of the Detroit native's brand of rock/rap/country genre mash-up music, there's no doubt he's just kind of a cool guy. He's unabashedly patriotic and doesn't shy away from USO tours to Afghanistan. He goes against the grain politically in the music business, is unafraid to say it, but does it in a low-key, mature way the temper tantrums of many liberal musicians can't match. Good for him.
Musician Kid Rock, who was a celebrity surrogate for Mitt Romney, said President Barack Obama wasted no time in jokingly acknowledging their campaign rivalry Sunday.
"It was nice. I saw the president tonight. He said, 'I'm still here.' I said, 'No hard feelings,' " Rock said, laughing.
Earlier Sunday, Rock attended a White House reception with Obama and this year's Kennedy Center Honors award recipients.
Speaking to CNN on the red carpet after the reception and before the ceremony in Washington, Rock said it was hard to see his candidate lose the election but added "it felt great" to have his music played on the campaign trail for Romney.
"It's tough to stand up for something you believe in. Believe me, especially in my business. I alienated a lot of fans and people," Rock said.
"But I believe if you don't stand for something, you don't stand for nothing," he added.
President Obama could take a lesson or two about how one's opponents are not necessarily one's "enemies" from Kid Rock.
"You cross your fingers, you try to move forward, you hope for the best," he said. "You respect the office of the president of the United States, and the great thing is in four years, we get to choose again."

Hi denters,
Last week I made a pretty big decision: I'm not gonna buy the jet pack from Bobamaker. I'm making it myself. After reading Jango72s post (Jango72s scratch built jet pack progress thread ( from WoF templates )) I want to try if for myself. Not with cardboard, Forex instead (aka sintra/foamboard/foamex).
So I bought me a few sheets. 3 m2 of 3mm and 3 m2 of 5mm to be precise.
Here are the first pics of my progress report.
First I made a cardboard prototype to get a feel for the size.
Next I started drawing the rocket shapes onto the 3mm sheet.
Thank you for looking :)
