With 24 recruits coming in, a lot of questions for next year's Utah State football team have been answered.
At least two questions linger: Who will be the Aggies' next defensive coordinator, and who will coach the running backs?
Nearly a month and a half into Matt Well's tenure as head coach, those positions are still vacant. The past few weeks have been stuffed with recruiting visits and trips, but now with Signing Day passed, there will be a bit more emphasis in shoring up the coaching staff for next year.
"We have got to hire a defensive coordinator and a running back coach and we have talked to some people," Wells said Wednesday. "We have got more people coming in and just trying to find the right fit and the right mixture and the right chemistry on our staff is the most important to me. I truly believe a great decision tomorrow is better than a good decision today."
Wells said it wasn't an issue in recruiting. Although the majority of the class is offensive help, Wells said having open spots "did not hurt us one bit in recruiting. In fact, it never came up."
Utah State did retain most of its assistants on the defensive side of the ball, including Kevin Clune, Frank Maile and Kendrick Shaver. The three were key in helping the Aggies finish No. 7 nationally in scoring defense. Shaver was named a co-defensive backs coach of the year by FootballScoop.com

- Why do we recommend you install the repo instead of manual install?
- By installing the repo, any new releases will automatically be picked up and pushed to XBMC and ask you to update the add-on!
- This will cut out the hassle coming to the thread for updates and manually uninstalling/installing the plugin!
- Why choose this over myp2p.eu and other football streaming sites?
- Its all down to preference, although this site is very stable, cheap, and not in high demand as the free websites are, thus better playback
- What is the price of this?
- The plugin is absolutely free (as always!), however, LiveOnlineFooty requires a payment of £6 for 2 months subscription
- Why is the plugin playing streams at 4:3?
- XBMC by default does this, at the moment we cannot force 16:9, streams are in 16:9 so to fix this do the following:

Can't say I've found that myself. What device you on? ATV2?
Not sure exactly how to do so, but I'm sure there's a way to increase the default buffer size in the addon, that should overcome that if it's a regular problem for you, although it means launching the stream would take longer.
Please report back if you keep on finding this problem.

Been considering signing up to this site for a while now. I've been using free sites such as myp2p.eu for many years now, can anyone tell me if the streams these use are any better quality or are they exactly the same ones? Also, being a West Ham fan it's looking likely that we'll be going down this year - anyone know if they show Championship games?!

The streams are way more stable and on the whole better than p2p streams.
The biggest issue with the site is the scheduling that never seems to be quite up to date -
however the subscription is cheap so I can live with that..
Not sure about the championship - there is a game scheduled for tonight so I suppose it depends on who is streaming when..

Not seen any settings though, only somewhere to enter my username and password. I will give it another go tonight for the QPR V Derby match as I mentioned above, see if that improves anything.
Might also give it a try on another device see how that works. I am not on a fantastic connection but it does average around 4mb which should be more than is needed.

The Music major at Roger Williams University offers a solid foundation in music theory and the principle musical styles in western culture, as well as an introduction to the music of various world cultures. Students study the elements of music and explore their application in various compositional formats. They have the opportunity to study the evolution of popular music as well as the classical forms that have characterized and helped define western culture. A unique aspect of RWU's Music major that reflects the mission of the University is the exploration of world cultures through music. These courses will focus not only on the music of various world cultures, but also on the ways in which music is a reflection of these cultures.
The Music Major offers two tracks for students to choose from. The "Music & Culture" track highlights performance and world culture through music, and the "Music & Technology" track explores 21st century developments in music, as influenced by new electronic and computer technologies.
Performing Ensembles
While enrolled at RWU, Music majors will study voice or instrument in private lessons and perform with one of the department's ensembles. Both the Instrumental Ensemble and the Chorus are conducted by members of the Music faculty. The RWU Chorus performs a varied repertoire of classical choral works along with musical theater and popular styles. Both ensembles perform at the end of each semester in the RWU Performing Arts Center.
Preparing for a Career
Students in the Music major are encouraged to take advantage of other unique opportunities offered at Roger Williams University, with its strong professional schools that complement the liberal arts curriculum. By adding a minor in Business, Communication or Computer Science, students can prepare themselves for many new opportunities in the field of music beyond the traditional spheres of performance and composition.
In addition to demonstrating the University-wide core values and achieving the University-wide learning outcomes, students in the music program at Roger Williams University will be able to:

What would you do if this is your hive?
It's one year old. They are Italian bees. They have swarmed one time about a month ago.
The hive consist of two deep boxes and two shallow suppers.
About six weeks ago I inspected the hive and all was well. Good brood pattern and a reasonable amount of brood in both deep boxes good bit of honey around the edges (normal). They had drawn four or five frames of the first supper.
Inspected again five weeks ago and found sixty to seventy percent of the first supper with capped honey so I added the next supper. I opened the top deep box and found more honey/pollen than brood the bottom box was the same more honey/pollen than brood. There were signs the queen was doing her job, saw fresh eggs in some of the empty cells.
Cheked again three weeks ago and found nothing in the top supper (the last one I added) no drawn comb nothing it was as it they ignored it. The supper that had the capped honey, it all had been uncapped and there were cells that were just half full, but there were no empty cells, checked the top deep box and it was full of honey/pollen, no empty cells at all, checked the bottom deep box found some empty cells and a little brood but it was very scattered and lots of honey/pollen. Found the queen and she looked OK.
I pulled three of the nine frames out of the bottom and replaced them with frames with just foundation (that's all I had). pulled three frames out of the top box and replaced them with frames with foundation only (checker board pattern). Put the supper with foundation only on top of the top deep box, then the supper (that had origanally been capped) on top of that.
Checked them today, The top supper was capped again, the next supper about half drawn with brood in it. the top deep box still full of honey/pollen even the empty frames put there three weeks ago. One side on each of two older drawn out frames was empty. On one of the frames that had the open side there were thirty (I counted them) capped drone sells and fifty six more drone cells being drawn nothing else on that side. On the other frame with the open side there were cells with multiple eggs (laying worker) but no capped cells.
The bottom deep box was full of honey/pollen execpt the three empties that I had added three weeks ago. There was a decent brood pattern in them the three with honey around the edges. The queen was on it and looked fine.
What do I do about all the honey in the deep boxes? Is there any way to intice the bees into moving it into suppers?
What should I do about the brood that is in the top supper, move it to the bottom, leave it alone, what?
What about all those drone cells I'm sure they will be filled with drones. will that hurt anything I don't think so but I'm not sure?
What about the signs of laying workers that was only on one side of one frame in one deep box.
Do I just add more boxes/suppers and let mother nature take its course?
I was so hopeing to get some honey this year but it doesn't look promising.
I applogize for such a long post but I couldn't figue out how to ask the questions with out the history behind them.
Hope someone can help I surely need it.

One suggestion I can think of. Take some of the honey out of the deeps and extract it. Then replace the frames into the deeps. The bees will clean it all out and then the queen will have a place to lay.

That does sound like a confusing mess. I'm no expert, but it appears to me you've done all kinds of right things.
You say they swarmed a month ago? Was wondering if the queen you now have is a purchased queen or one the bees raised. Could she be just young? And that would account for the multipule eggs in cells? The hive is on the edge of honey bound, but I know you're doing alot to fight against that.
I'm thinking.... things will eventually get better. BUT, in the meantime you want to do what you can to get any capped honey out. The goal I'm thinking of is to give room for laying. I believe I'd extract honey, and give what frames and foundation on the lowest box. I think the bees for now are going to put the honey in the first cells they can (lowest area). But maybe if they do, the queen can find somewhere to lay higher up.
I know they'll get it all straight at some point. I had a hive get honey bound, but after awhile they fixed it.
It seems to me that you've done (and/or thought of) all these things yourself. So I may not be giving you much new to work on. :)

"Backfilling" the brood nest is a common precursor to swarming. Sounds like they plan to swarm again, to me. But I suppose, if you can't find any swarm cells, it's possible the queen is failing.
>What do I do about all the honey in the deep boxes? Is there any way to intice the bees into moving it into suppers?
Take it out. If you don't use chemicals you can extract it and use it. If you DO use chemicals, you can extract it or cut the comb out and feed it to the bees and put the empty frames back. An empty frame between two drawn combs will be drawn nicely and that will give the queen somewhere to lay and them somewhere to cluster. While you're at it, checkerboard the supers (put empty frames or frames of nectar between the capped frames if there are any) and get rid of the excluder (if you're using one).
>What should I do about the brood that is in the top supper, move it to the bottom, leave it alone, what?
If you want you can move it to the bottom or put it on top of the deeps.
>What about all those drone cells I'm sure they will be filled with drones. will that hurt anything I don't think so but I'm not sure?
The bees will only raise so many drones and then they will fill it with honey. I like to move combs of drone cells to the outside edge of the brood boxes. That way the bees can clear them and the queen can lay in them if they want drones, but they usually fill those frames with honey.
>What about the signs of laying workers that was only on one side of one frame in one deep box.
I've never seen a laying worker in a hive with a queen and you say you saw the queen. Sometimes when a queen can't find room to lay she will lay multiple eggs. But a queen lays them in the bottom of the worker cells and the laying workers lay them on the side of the cell because they can't reach the bottom. Are you sure it's a laying worker?
>Do I just add more boxes/suppers and let mother nature take its course?
You could try that. But my guess is they will swarm if you do. A frame of eggs is always a good step, in case it's a failing (drone laying) queen, then they have the opportunity to supercede her. It also gets them back into brood rearing. I'd open up the brood nest also so there is room for the queen to lay in case that's the problem.
If you give them the resources and if there isn't a laying worker (which I don't think there is because you have a queen) then they may work things out.

Hello, I am David a soon to be graduate with a bad case of wanderlust. I plan to travel immediately after my graduation and am considering working some TEFL in, both provide some extra funds and do something vaguely worthwhile. However, I have read a few fairly scathing attacks on the profession, usually hinging on the effectiveness of the education ultimately provided by the teachers. Having not actually experiences the 120+ hour industry standard I don't know how well it actually prepares you and to what effectiveness you can teach a class.
What I am really asking is, do TEFL courses adequately prepare you for teaching, and is there any firm evidence to show that being taught by someone trained in the 120+ hour method leads to good levels of English.


text: I'd go with the 224. More rounds, proven platform, simple to operate, and less recoil. It's very tempting to go with the smaller package, but I prefer a little more handgun to hang onto, especially when shot placement is the #1 priority. I don't imply that there is anything wrong with the 938, it's just not for me. I'll take practical over convenience.

I've used a lot of them, and here are my impressions:
Aimpoint QC is hit and miss, we get a lot of M68's that have messed up elevation adjustments, right out of the box brand new. The batteries last [I]forever[I], though. Pretty hard to break them, also.
Eotech, I really like them, but the battery life is a bit shorter than the Aimpoint, and you need to keep that in mind. Pretty tough, as well.
I recently bought a Vortex Strikefire for my personal AR, and I like it a lot. pretty cheap (150 bucks), holds it's zero, and the battery life, while shorter than the Aimpoint, hasn't been a problem yet. Might be about the same as the Eotech in that regard. It is somewhat bigger than the Aimpoint, if that's a concern for you. The only complaint I personally have with it is I wish the dot was a little bit brighter on bright sunny days. Doesn't stop me from reccomending it though.
The trijicon has one serious advantage, NO BATTERIES. I used an ACOG in Iraq, and I didn't baby it, but it held up just fine. Would NOT return to zero if I took it off the weapon, but held zero if I left it alone.
Hope this helps...

2,000 people celebrate life of Jessica Ridgeway
Public memorial held in Arvada Tuesday
ARVADA, Colo. - More than 2,000 people gathered in Arvada Tuesday to remember the life of murder victim Jessica Ridgeway.
Many attending the public memorial at Faith Bible Church wore purple, the 10-year-old's favorite color.
"She would really love all this purple," said Gay Moore, Jessica's aunt.
Those in the crowd who didn't know Jessica learned a little more about her short life. Family and friends said she loved to dance, play with her pets and tell knock-knock jokes. A slideshow featured one of the girl's favorite songs, 'Call Me Maybe.'
"Up in heaven right now, there's a beautiful little girl looking down on everyone, flying with her silver wings," said family friend Heidi Caswell.
Family urged attendees not to mourn Jessica, but to celebrate her.
"We will remember every moment spent with her. Every smile she shared, every second spent hoping and praying she would come home," said Jessica's cousin Nick Pesavento. "But most of all, we will remember the way she lives on within us."
Relatives and friends acknowledged that many at the memorial never knew Jessica. They said they were happy to share her life with so many.
"Jessica has become everyone's little girl," said Pesavento. "She has brought a community, a state and a nation together."
Governor John Hickenlooper also spoke at the memorial, telling the crowd that hundreds of law enforcement officers were working around the clock, "just committing their entire being to Jessica" in their efforts to find her killer.
To date, investigators have received about 4,000 tips from the public.

Darla & Philip
August 17
Bethany, Illinois
Q & A with the Bride:
1. What was the one thing about your venue that made you know it was the one?
We wanted our wedding to be fun, outdoorsy, and simple. We also did not want to be limited to a specific number of guests. Getting married on my parent's farm was consistent with the type of wedding we wanted—it was an obvious choice for us!
2. Which three details were your favorites from your wedding?
1. We loved the "Here Comes the Bride" sign that my brother made from a walnut tree for my nephew to carry down the aisle. "Here Come the Zelenaks" was written on the back side of the sign. My nephew carried it up the aisle after the ceremony.
2. We loved the simple table design with the wood slab, antique blue and modern clear jars for the flower arrangements and the vibrantly colored napkins.
3. The ceremony setting with the large tree and beautiful view over the hillside.
3. Give us the one moment in your wedding day you can't stop thinking about.
Walking down the aisle and seeing the man that I was about to marry!

Comments about oreilly Cloud Application Architectures:
I am about to write my first application to deploy in the cloud, and this book was an excellent "first-read" before embarking on that endeavour. This book covers a wide range of territory while being delightfully short ... I read it in two days. It's well-written and contains lots of useful information. It focuses on Amazon's cloud, which was appropriate for my interests, but is sufficiently general to be useful even if you plan on deploying into other clouds.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Developer, Sys Admin
I enjoyed the book and found it to have great coverage of the various architectural issues you will find when deploying to the cloud. The principles espoused in this book apply outside of the cloud as well so it is a good read for any architect.I posted about this book on my blog [@]

Thank You, Reese and O'Reilly, For Your Impeccable Timing
By Graeme Thickins
from Undisclosed
This is a book that had to be written, and O'Reilly's timing of its publication couldn't be better. It will be gobbled up in this defining year in the mainstreaming of cloud computing. Reese, an experienced O'Reilly author and recognized cloud computing practitioner, delivers a highly readable volume that cuts through all the cloud computing hype to provide real clarity for anyone wanting to better understand this often confusing and frequently derided term. He gives solid, practical advice on how to benefit, today, from this powerful new set of technologies. Cloud computing is a tsunami headed toward old-school corporate computing. Doubters beware. Reese and his O'Reilly editors do a brilliant job covering the bases for anyone "who designs, builds, or maintains web applications that may be deployed into the cloud." But the book's appeal will extend much wider than that -- not only to anyone who manages such technologists, but into C-level suites as well. And I don't just mean the CIO's office. It is an excellent companion purchase to Nicholas Carr's "The Big Switch," delivering the knowledge you and your people need to take the next step -- to actually implement cloud computing.Chapter 1 is an outstanding overview of the cloud concept and its value to the business enterprise, worth the price of the book alone. Then, Reese delves into an excellent description of the leading provider of cloud computing services today, Amazon Web Services (AWS), including its EC2 and S3 offerings. From there, he describes what you need to know before you move into the cloud, followed by a chapter on getting ready for the cloud. But it's not all sweetness and light. Reese addresses head-on the widely recognized obstacles cited by enterprises to adopting cloud computing today: security and reliability. An entire chapter is devoted to disaster recovery in the cloud, as is scaling a cloud infrastructure. Three excellent appendices round out the book, making it a must for any cloud IT professional's book shelf: an Amazon Web Services reference, plus submissions by technologists at two other leading cloud providers, GoGrid and Rackspace, explaining their offerings. I find it hard to identify anything the book lacks; it appears to cover all the bases business and IT people need -- now -- to take action and start reaping the major costs savings offered by cloud computing. We will undoubtedly see updated editions as changes occur in this field. But do not miss the first printing.

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by missflick, Dec 12, 2010.
Snow in Minnesota, who'd have predicted that? An inflatable roof that didn't take winter into account doesn't seem to be a smart idea.
The 'dome has been around for 28 years, and this was a record snowstorm here. We had 17 inches of snow fall within a 16 hour span...I don't think anyone could have predicted what ended up happening. The high winds meant that workers couldn't keep up with clearing snow off the top, either.
Overall, a really scary day yesterday. Horrible, horrible weather.
Reminds me of the Olympic Stadium roof in Montreal, we've had this problem more than once.
Courtesy of TMZ: http://www.tmz.com/2010/12/12/metrodome-roof-collapse-minnesota-vikings-snow-blizzard-video/
There is talk of this being the impetus for Vikings to leave, ouch. Missed game being played tonight in Detroit. How many fans will make the trip? Hopefully out of towners from the Green Bay game will stay over for this one. PS. The tickets are free!
There is discussion about how the Vikings management/owners will spin this to ask, yet again, for a new stadium. Evidently they're playing it cool right now - not bringing it up *right away* in order not to alienate people.
I don't give a rip about football or the Vikes, but many, many, many Minnesotans do. Amazing how all the chatter about govt being too big and taxes being too much flies out the window when football stadia funding (or any pro sport) is involved.
Moi, I'm just happy my plowed-in vehicle here in Saint Paul didn't get ticketed and towed!
I doubt the Vikings will get a new stadium out of this. The Dome is repairable. I may be wrong, but I can't see them getting (or deserving) a new stadium until they have a few respectable years in a row. There simply doesn't seem to be the interest among taxpayers here.
Seriously. The taxes in downtown Minneapolis are already horrific! Almost 8 percent on non food, and 10 percent in restaurants...
Meanwhile I had to chuckle at the joke going around twitter yesterday that "even God wants Favre to retire".
My husband's lunatic friend in St Paul has concocted an entire conspiracy theory in which the Metrodome roof did not collapse but rather was destroyed in a controlled demolition in order to make the city build the Vikings a new stadium. The Giants were also in on it and were not really stranded in KC, but wanted to help by making sure the game was postponed so they pretended to not be able to get a flight.
He posted on Facebook that his not quite 4 year old son concurs with the whole theory.
Heard on the radio today that the Pontiac Silverdome (Lion's old stadium) has the same roof and they have some panels in storage that they are sending to help with the rebuild. Someone from Lions texted the NFL offering Ford Field for Monday's game. Free tickets (30,000) gone in 90 minutes!
Good thing I live in the 'burbs!
But yes, it does suck to pay for stuff when I do go downtown.
That's a new one on me. What a nut case!
Where I live it's 13% on everything. But that's another discussion...

Yes, great link! Definitely "bookmark" worthy!
Field stripping couldn't be easier, but for more in depth disassembly this will come in handy.
BTW, I read a handy tip recently on another thread. That is to disassemble inside a large plastic baggy (1+ gal.) That way any springs or other parts that may go flying remain contained. Just thought I'd share this, it could save a world of inconvenience.

The issue about gender inequality in science has been an ongoing topic of discussion both in industry and academia. It seems ironic that this field, where objectivity is more often sought over subjectivity, apparently suffers from a gender-biased culture. In line with this, I recently read this blog that featured a number of female scientists and their stories behind how "being a woman" influenced their careers. It's quite long, but I think the details are quite substantial so I'd say it is worth reading.
At the beginning of Pollack's article, she mentioned a study conducted just this summer showing how there is still some preference for men (over women) in academic job offerings. I wish she could have included a reference to the paper so that people could see how this study was conducted or how reliable the results are. Overall, her article articulates how these collection of anecdotes from the female scientists she interviewed shows that there are still some stereotypes and social constructs that can potentially be hindrances to females pursuing this field. It's quite bothering how, from Marie Curie's time until now, we still haven't achieved a gender balance—men still outnumbers women in this field.
I'd say that in this article, the most striking statement for me is: "And yet, as I listened to these four young women laugh at the stereotypes and fears that had discouraged so many others, I was heartened that even these few had made this far, that theirs will be the faces the next generation grows up imagining when they think of a female scientist." I'm sure there's more modern female scientists with interesting stories of success than the list that Pollack gave in her article; there should be.
Another interesting article, released earlier this year in Nature magazine, touched on some of the reasons behind this gender imbalance. To note, the article is entitled 'Science for all', which I think is more politically correct rather than specifically saying 'women for science.' Childcare, political influences and institutional support are some of the issues that the author touched upon.
In the end, the article boils down to showing how women themselves should find ways and implement things on how their 'status and profile' can be uplifted in this very competitive field. By looking at more articles/blogs regarding these topics, everything says the gender issue is definitely still present and that the biases still negatively affect females. Different point of views are given, I'd say my fellow female scientists should take some time to look at these and ponder on them.
At this point, I don't think I am credible enough to throw in my insights about this topic. I haven't arrived at that point yet in my career that I needed to apply and compete with a pool of male and female applicants for a real job. I guess I feel like I do not have enough experience yet to give a stand about this issue. However, I keep on seeing articles like this for almost a year and a half of my stay here in this institution and from a student's point of view, I'd say it is somehow discouraging. I suspect other female graduate students feel the same way, at some point.
Having said that, I am writing this not to discourage further but rather to put up a challenge. Statistics are very clear in showing how females are a minority in the field of science. But, I think the initiative to promote balance should come from the female members of this field themselves. This should be the challenge—starting to uplift the status of women in science in an active way and not just passively waiting for opportunities or help to come. These are just some of my thoughts that I hope would be able to stimulate the thoughts of the readers to not just ponder on it, but to provide an action on this issue.

Here's my review of Evolutions boba fett gloves. They are made of
cotton and are serger stitched main bodies. a serger is a machine that makes the type of seams jeans are sewn together with. Just look inside your favorite pair of Levis' and you'll see what I mean it's a locked stitch
so the gloves are "pro" jobs to start. The applied white fabric that makes them fett style is hand stitched on. They have done a nice job too.
As you can see they have cuffs with velcro and a single button. The
difference in the backs of the hand is right. They are so easy to wear
that I have indeed typed this entire thread with them on. LOL! I give them
my :thumbsup! Bear in mind I have not seen nor worn any others so these might
be the best or the worst out there but for $40 they are what they are.

Well, here i am, after three years i was starting to believe i would never write a topic like this...
I started this project almost three years ago, i wanted to make a clonetrooper, and i choose the GM because i thought it was a good choice for "larger" guys like me. Since the very beginning i decided that i wanted to make everything from scratch... well i worked insanely hard the last month and yesterday i made my first troop with the 501st Italica Garrison (i've been a recruit for three years now!) and here are a bunch of pictures for you guys!
This week end we had a major convention here in Rome, and i worked hard to build and set up the huge 501st boot we had this year. We had Jeremy Bullock as a special guest and i also had to attend the Spaghetti Prop (the Prop Forum i created last year) boot... Anyway i manage to complete the costume enough to be worn decently: still missing bicep bandolier, chest armor and chest bandolier greeblies, belt greeblies and straps to the kama, and kama grey border. Also the cowl is still to be made properly, the one in the pics was glued in place 5 minutes before i wore the costume.
The blaster is a Hyperfirm my friend Dark-Side gave me for the event, since i still need one.
You can find the progress thread here:
comments and suggestion are very well welcome!

Yes there is , If there isnt an uninstall file in the game folder. Go to ur computer top left there is a "remove program " Click it and wait look for chaos online.
If all the above doesnt work , click start and find chaos online and hope theres an unistall option there
Humm guess it will go to the bin. Couldn't find any uninstaller. Well i will wait a bit longer , until i need some space on mah lil hd.
-click to search
-write "chaos online"
-than start to delete what u see
after these steps u wont see anything about this game
but its really a bad way to uninstall this game.Actually itsn't uninstall . I dont suggest this way =)))


text: Well, i'm sure you'll get alot of good advice, this site is great and the members are helpful and knowleadgeable. Of course the .22 is the all time starter caliber for new shooters, and from there it gets interesting. I'd go with 9mm in a fullsize to no lesser than a compact model. My reasoning is the smaller caliber pistols lets say .32, 380, generally come in small framed handguns and are gonna snap and bark as much as a fullsize 9mm pistol in my experience and I really can't advise starting a new shooter off with a small pistol. You will have many good suggestions but I can only suggest what I have experience with and think appropriate. I believe the larger 380's may be an option such as Bersa or Beretta 84. Although as suggested, a full size 9mm will be not much more to handle, and ammo is cheaper. I've heard good reviews from smaller women with S&W M&P compact which is very ergonomical for smaller hands and shoots relatively soft. However, a good DA/SA like a Beretta PX4 Storm fullsize and compact have numerous safety feautures to consider for the new shooter and are a breeze to breakdown and clean, which would be my first suggestion, and are the only two I own and have experience with. You'll get plenty of other great suggestions I'm sure. Good shooting!

OLD WESTBURY, N.Y. — Sophomore Luke Miller (Mastic, N.Y.) netted five goals to lead No. 5 NYIT lacrosse to a 14-10 victory over Saint Michael's Saturday afternoon at President's Stadium. With the win, the Bears improved to 5-1 on the season. The Purple Knights dropped to 1-2 overall.
Miller also had three assists in the outing for eight points. Classmate Ryan Brunet (Sound Beach, N.Y.) recorded a hat trick in the victory, while junior Cory Triola (Levittown, N.Y.) and rookie Shawn Murphy (Holbrook, N.Y.) had two goals each. Senior Mike Ross (Adams, N.Y.) and junior Dermott Kramer (Freeport, N.Y.) chipped in with a goal each.
Senior Joe Fallon (Kings Park, N.Y.) earned the win in goal. He played all 60 minutes and made 11 saves on 32 shots faced. The loss went to Chris DeMairo (1-2), who made five saves in 38:16 minutes played. Marty Vanzo led the Purple Knights with three goals and a assist.
It was a close game played throughout as the Purple Knights kept the score within two goals for most of the contest. NYIT got on the board early with a goal from Triola just 49 seconds into the game. The Bears score twice more and led 3-2 at the end of the first quarter. Miller opened the second stanza with an unassisted goal at the 12:47 mark. But back-to-back goals from Saint Michael's knotted the score 4-4 with 7:43 remaining. It was the only time in the contest the score was tied. NYIT regained control of the scoreboard with back-to-back goals from Brunet but Vanzo had the final say of the half to leave the Bears leading 6-5 at half time.
NYIT pulled away by three-goals, 8-5, in the beginning of the third quarter as Ross capitalized on a man-up opportunity and Miller tallied a hat trick. Murphy then gave the Bears its largest lead, 10-6, when he found the back of the net with two goals a minute apart. NYIT never looked back as it went on to win 14-10.
The Bears open East Coast Conference play on Saturday, March 23 on the road against the Pioneers of LIU Post. Faceoff in the "Battle of the Boulevard" is scheduled for Noon.

In the modern world, they emerge from the shadows of society and gain fame by some action that no one expected. Karst Tates was a man known by his neighbors in the Dutch town of Huissen as a withdrawn individual who lived alone and most probably dreamed alone. He had lost his job at a security firm and sat in the darkness of his house lost in dreams and wondering about his future. No one knows what finally propelled him to get in his car and head for the city of Apeldoorn where the queen was leading a celebration on the Queen's national holiday. As so often in these situations, it is the isolate, the man without a sense of community, the man lost in some form of anger or discontent who lashes out at the world.
He admitted to the police his goal was to ram his car into her bus and try to cause serious injury to the royal family. Instead he wound up dead along with five other innocent victims of the attack. His name will disappear into the vortex of history, a footnote about a botched attack that killed a few and left the world with more questions than answers. Is the need to become known worth the sacrifice of one's life?

Richard asks:
I have a folder which I tried to secure by adding password protection. In the Folder Properties, under the General tab, I saw and checked the Hidden box and successfully hid the folder. Now I can't seem to find the newly hidden folder. How do I get access back to the folder? Also, how can I password protect it? I'm using Vista.
Richard, you can access your hidden folder by going to where it was stored (it's still there) and clicking the Alt key. This will bring up a familiar looking menu at the top of the screen. By the way, you can also follow these steps in Windows 7.
Click on Tools, then Folder Options. In the Folder Options dialog box, click the View tab, and look for Show hidden files, folders and drives. Click the Radio button to the left.
Your folder will be in view, but will remain technically hidden until you follow the process you started with, and uncheck Hidden in the folder Properties.
Under the General tab, uncheck the Radio button beside the word Hidden.
Regarding password protection, I found no methods built into Windows, but the following is a way to limit access by others.
Begin with the same steps you used to hide the folder. Right click on the folder, select Properties, and under the Security tab, select the user or group whose permissions you'd like to modify.
Then, click the Edit button and, in the Permissions dialog box, you can select any or all of the checkboxes.
If you want deny all access, check all the boxes. When you're done, click Apply and OK.
Once you've done this, only users logged in under your name will be able to access this folder.
Thanks for the question, Richard.

Giving Your Child Liquid Medicine
Liquid medicines are often prescribed or are available over-the–counter (OTC), for infants and young children because they are easier to swallow. In order for these medications to be effective, it's very important that the correct dose is administered.
A recent study found that 39.4 percent of parents improperly measured the dose they intended, and ultimately 41.1 percent made an error in measuring what their doctor had prescribed.
A lot of the confusion transpires when the medicine does not come with a dose applicator. Parents and caregivers often use a kitchen teaspoon or tablespoon to measure the liquid. Kitchen teaspoons and tablespoons are rarely accurate, so children can end up receiving either too much or too little medicine.
If you're giving your child an OTC liquid medicine, read the "Drug Facts" on the label. This should tell you what the medicine is for, how to use it, what is in it, and what to watch out for.
Check to see how much of the medicine is recommended. The first choice for dosing should be weight but if age is the only option available, go by that. Speak to the pharmacist or your pediatrician about age adjustment if you know or suspect your child is heavier or lighter than a typical child of that age group.
Always check the label to make sure that the medicine is safe for infants or toddlers younger than 2 years.
If you're giving a prescription medicine, these will most likely have a different label than OTC medicines. You should see the name of the medication, how much to give, how often to give it and how long to give it.
Many people think that drops are less potent than syrup for children. Typically, drops are more concentrated than syrups and should be administered carefully. Parents often make the mistake of given a "little bit more" thinking they are helping their child, but are actually putting their child at risk for an overdose.
When giving liquid medicines, follow the directions exactly and use the correct measuring appliance to give it. Giving too much medicine over a period of time can lead to other serious health issues.
Medicines can be measured 3 different ways. You may see instructions for teaspoon (tsp), Tablespoon (Tbsp / TBSP), or milliliters (mL, ml, mLs).
Here's what these measurements look like when they are translated into other measurements:
- 1 teaspoon (tsp) = 5 milliliters (mL)
- 3 teaspoons (tsp) = 1 Tablespoon (TBSP)
- 1 Tablespoon (TBSP) = 15 milliliters (mL)
Measuring cups normally come with cold and flu medications. Never mix cups from different products. This can easily happen when a particular medicine's cup is misplaced and another product's cup is substituted. Not all measuring cups are the same.
Make sure the cup is level when you fill it and that the medicine is not above or below the recommended measurement line. You can always ask the pharmacist to mark the correct line for your child if you are not sure.
Dosing spoons are also used to help older children acquire the correct amount of liquid. Use only the spoon that comes with the medicine. Be sure to use the lines and numbers to get the right amount for your child. Again, you can always ask your pharmacist to mark the right line if you are not sure.
Droppers or syringes are the most common applicators for infants and children who may have a difficult time swallowing from a cup or spoon. Medicine droppers have markings that indicate doses on the syringe under the squeeze bulb. Look at the numbers on the side of the dropper or syringe. Use the numbers to fill it to the right line. One teaspoon (tsp) is the same as 5 mL.
Finally, never place the medicine in the back of your child's throat. This could cause your infant or little one to choke. Just squirt it gently on the tongue or the side of the mouth.
The pictures below will give you a visual reference for measurements listed above.

Abou Diaby says he is eager to repay Arsène Wenger's faith in him and live up to his billing as a potentially "massive" player for the Club.
The French midfielder has been restricted to just three appearances this season, but his manager is firm in his belief that he can be a major star for the Gunners.
Diaby admits it has been tough to deal with his injury problems, but says the faith of those around him has helped him cope.
"I just need to carry on and stay focused every day in my rehabilitation," he told Arsenal Player. "I feel in a good way now.
"Football itself has motivated me because it's the thing that I love. There is also my family and team-mates, manager, medical staff - they have all helped me.
"It is a big motivation for me that the boss said about me [being a "massive" player]. I want to be thankful to him and show him that he is right."

I always use magnesium in either citrate or chelate forms. However this Malate formula is excellent too, the malic acid really helps with fibromyalgia/muscle pains and various other things, highly reccommended!
Great for leg cramps!

This product was recommended to us by our doctor for nightly leg cramps. My husband and I both tried the magnesium malate tabs and had remarkable results! One thousand mg. a day, like a miracle NO CRAMPS waking us in the middle of the night. THANKS so much for making it available ~ we will continue to order when we get low on our supply!
Don't overuse

This product is very effective and easy absorbed by the body. The dose is high enough for one tablet a day, taken in the morning. If you take two or even three a day as suggested, you might get to much magnesium, This happend to me and gave me musclecramps, insomnia, hartpounding and diarrea. Since calcium is muscle tension increasing and magnesium malate is muscle relaxing, The intake of calcium and magnesium should be in balance together for optimum performance.
Good magnesium source and may clear aluminum

I live in Costa Rica and have been told that we have a lot of aluminum in the soil that is taken up by the produce. I am not sure about that, but I did find a reference that this helps remove the aluminum. I don't have any effects yet, but it is a good magnesium source as well.

Good price, though I wish it came in smaller tablets -- I'd rather take 2 moderately-sized tablets than one giant horse pill. Also, although the calcium carbonate this contains is probably just filler, and has a very small amount of elemental calcium, I still wish it wasn't included at all. I get plenty of calcium in my diet, and more than I really want in my supplements (from various calcium salts, plus my multi).
So far, so good

I started to take this in place of D-Ribose for my fibromyalgia. So far it seems to be doing the trick and it costs much less.

Was just going to order then saw it contained calcium in 'supplemental facts'. This isn't very clear on product page or from reviews? I only need more magnesium...so
It has Calcium Carbonate!
Posted by Reviewer1911078 on Nov 07, 2010 | Verified Purchase
I've been using this supplement for years now, and I just noticed that it has calcium carbonate in it. I know for certain that this was not the case some time ago. I'm disappointed that NOW would change the supplement without mentioning it on the face of the label.

The Mendenhall Summer Institute at the University of St. Thomas closes the gap between high school and college for recent high school graduates. The five-week program, finishing its sixth run, helps incoming freshmen adjust to the rigors and challenges of college life.
The program started in 2008 with a generous gift from Trini Mendenhall-Sosa. During a celebration luncheon on Aug.1, the 45 students recognized Mendenhall-Sosa as their keeper of dreams as they aspire to graduate from St. Thomas in 2017. The cohort surprised her with a time capsule box for all the support she has given the students, presented by Brittany Bigott.
"I decided to decorate the time capsule with pictures of our program so Mrs. Mendenhall could feel like we are all involved," Bigott said. "In four-year time, when we all graduate, she is allowed to open up the capsule and read the letters we wrote with all of our goals and hopes for our college experience. It it's a way to keep her in our lives as our dream keeper."
The Summer Institute, held from July 9 through Aug. 8, offered two separate tracks and allowed the students to earn six college credit hours, in addition to having an opportunity to earn a grant for tuition at UST.
CELT Track
In the Creating Engaged Learners & Thinkers (CELT) track, 24 students were prepared for college level critical thinking through foundational courses in mathematics and English.
Bigott, an incoming freshman women's basketball player interested in marketing, is a graduate of Seven Lakes High School in Katy, Texas. She said the CELT experience prepared her for a smoother transition into college life come fall.
"I've had a really fun time," Bigott said. "I feel like I'm more prepared. Starting college isn't something I'm nervous about. I've been here five weeks, and I know I can get through it smoothly. I don't have to worry about freaking out, not knowing where things are or not knowing anybody."
STEM Track
In the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) track, 21 students enhanced their mathematical and problem solving skills with the goal of greater achievement in STEM specific courses.
The STEM track is focused on mathematics and scientific methods and is designed for science, mathematics or cooperative engineering students. However, any student can benefit from the course, as it happened to Carlos Garcia, a graduate of Reagan High School in the Heights, who is interested in political science and psychology.
"It was centered on math, so I didn't like it at first," Garcia said. "But Dr. John Starner is a really good professor. I like that he taught us to take notes and I'm not used to taking notes. I'm used to absorbing the knowledge really fast."
Peer Mentors
An additional aspect to the program that contributes to the success of the students is the student mentors, graduates of previous Summer Institutes who mentor current students about classes and the transition into college.
Samantha Loos-Polk, a sophomore nursing major, was one of 11 mentors for the 2013 cohort. She participated in MSI in 2012 and wished to help incoming freshman experience the same positive and rewarding experience.
"Throughout my MSI experience, I was able to get a firsthand look at what college was going to be like at UST before the start of the school year," Loos-Polk said. "I applied to be a mentor because I wanted to give insight and help the incoming nursing students. There were no nursing majors within this year's MSI, but I am still able to help other students in a positive way regarding their questions about UST or their future goals."
Transition for College Success
Dr. Ric Montelongo, director of student success, said the Mendenhall Summer Institute combines a rigorous summer curriculum with personal development strategies to make college more meaningful. He helps students find balance between exploring new leadership opportunities and focusing on academic aspirations.
"I found that students who participated in the program leave with a strong sense of knowing what it takes to succeed in the college classroom," Montelongo said. "They also leave with a strong sense of self-confidence to face challenges both in and out of the classroom. This self-confidence, I believe, is the driving force that makes Mendenhallers strong campus leaders."
Bigott, Garcia and Loos-Polk look forward to what the upcoming year has to bring with the MSI 2013 experience under their belt.
"I was blessed to have been in this program," Garcia said. "I feel more confident. Incoming freshman should participate Mendenhall."

'"He played a great game," said coach Lindy Ruff. "To have a player step in and have as good a first night as that, it's almost like a dream come true. He set up a couple great opportunities, he missed a chance when he walked in alone. There were lots of good things about his game."'

Bernier's debut keys Sabres win
Bern-yeah turns boos into cheers
'"Awesome," he said during the third round of questions from reporters on Wednesday. "I never saw it happening like this."'
Miller leaves with bloody nose, but returns
'But Miller later left the game with a bloody nose after Marek Zidlicky's big shot from the point. The puck caromed off Miller's mask and as he fell to the ice, the rebound went directly to Jan Hlavac, who scored into the empty net.'

Bernier leads Sabres' charge
'Bernier, who was given Campbell's stall in Buffalo's dressing room, had time for one pre-game skate with his new teammates before getting pressed into active duty. If Ruff had time to offer a few words, the conversation clearly would have involved a map with a bright red dot placed in front of the opposing net.'
Is Miller's time with Sabres limited?
'"The earliest you can do it is July, and I like to celebrate my birthday in July and just have fun, so I don't think it's going to happen then," Miller said before Wednesday's game against Nashville. "So there's no point in bringing it up now. It doesn't help anything this season, and it might not even be a factor for most of next season."'
Bernier scores 2 in Sabres debut, sparking 8-4 win over Predators
'"When your confidence is not where you want it to be and the first shot you make you score, it helps," said Bernier, labeled an underachiever during three seasons with the Sharks. "I'm glad everything went the way I wanted everything to go. … Yeah, it's a good start, but nothing is done yet."'
Buffalo 8, Nashville 4
'"I came here with no pressure," said Bernier. "They expect me to play a game. Its only one game. Its tough for me to say anything right now, the next game is against a great team (Montreal). Were going to have to play the same way. Im just happy right now. The past is done, now Im sticking with the future."'
Bernier Nets Two In Sabres Debut
'There was physical play throughout the game with several big hits, fights and skirmishes totaling 65 minutes of penalties.'
Bernier makes the right impression
'"He made an impression with the way he carried himself today in the locker room and how he handled himself around a new group of guys," said Peters regarding the media circus that immersed the right winger. "You can just see that he's a great guy and great personality. It's everything you want in a teammate."'
Bern Baby Bern!
'"It's only one game, there's a lot of games left," Bernier said after the game while also praising his linemates. "They see the ice so well, they skate so well, the only I have to do is make sure give the puck to them and just drive to the net."'
Sudden impact
'Most of those "pure" first goals took place in October but some, like Bernier's, came after a trade; so now seems like a good time to revisit them. The following is an incomplete list. We know we've missed some — 16 such goals were scored from 1990 to 2000 alone — so please email us if you have one to add to our collection.'
Thursday's Rochester Coverage

Campbell Not Worth $6 Million Per Season
'But the better of the two Sabres teams, comparing last year's squad and the team the year before, was the team that just missed knocking off eventual Cup Champion Carolina. THAT team may not have had quite the regular season as the 2006-2007 bunch, but it was a team better suited for the playoffs, in retrospect.'
Sabres G Miller returns after being struck by shot to the mask
'Miller, struck by Marek Zidlicky's blast from inside the blue line 3 minutes into the period, looked woozy, and briefly collapsed to the ice. Jan Hlavac, making his Predators debut, scored on the play by depositing the rebound into the open left side.'

One of the many questions we are asked in the Discovery Centre is about the many and varied birds and mammals people sight in their own surburban backyards. One such enquiry came to us from Steve from East Brighton who had spotted an albino possum in his garden.
Ally, the albino possumImage: Steve Mitchelmore Source: Steve Mitchelmore
In February 2012 Steve discovered an albino baby brush-tail possum in his backyard. He wanted to know how rare they were as he had been observing possums for years, and this is the first albino one he had seen. One of our experts responded with the following;
Albino mammals are not totally unknown; we have received specimens at about a three year interval on average. Once the gene is introduced into a local population then their occurrence becomes a bit more periodic although only about once in a generation. Because they are not camouflaged as well as their parents or siblings they are readily detected by predators and could be easily taken as prey. A true albino will also have poor eyesight due to the lack of pigmentation in the eye again making them susceptible to predation. It will be interesting to follow this young animal and see how it survives such traumas.
To which Steve responded;
About three weeks ago I noticed the small tail and one paw protruding from the mother's pouch seemed unnaturally pale in colour, then last night the juvenile, creamy white with deep red eyes, was on its mother's back...
P.S. Regarding predators, do you know if Powerful Owls inhabit the East Brighton area?
To which our expert replied;
I am unsure about the Powerful Owl's situation in East Brighton but I can say that they have been seen/heard in many Melbourne suburbs. So if the area concerned is heavily vegetated – that is with large trees then there is every possibility that one of these large owls will make its presence felt.
Early in July, Steve sent the following update;
... you mentioned that it would be interesting to follow her development and any 'traumas' she may endure. She still comes by almost every night, having been AWOL on only six or seven occasions since late January. She has the un-original name of 'Ally' (as in Ally the Albino)... As for traumas, so far so good, apart from when she fell into the pool three nights ago. Luckily the water level was so high following all the recent rain that she had no trouble getting herself out.
Then in late July, he sent in his last update;
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but . . . Sadly, Ally has not been sighted since Monday night...Some months ago she disappeared for three nights straight, but I won't hold my breath after seven. I've made numerous calls to local vets, DSE, Wildlife Victoria...Animal Rescue etc. all to no avail and searches of neighbouring yards for fur or remains have also been fruitless... I'm still amazed she survived as long as she did. Anyway, it was certainly an enjoyable (and educational!) six months. She will be sadly missed. Once again, thanks for your time and response to my emails.
Got a question? Ask us!
UPDATE: Ally has been spotted again!
WILD: Amazing animals in a changing world
Well spotted! And yes - we would love to see your photos. More than likely it is Ally as the chances of another Albino possum in Brighton are rather slim, though not impossible.
We would also be happy for you to send us your photos too.
For Museum Victoria's position on feeding possums, please refer to our webpage Feeding native animals.
Hi Michelle,
The home range (feeding grounds) of a Brushtail Possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) vary depending on the amount of food available and the population density of possums in any particular area. Home ranges decrease as food becomes more abundant, and as the population density increases - and vice versa. This will change over the years as circumstances change, and a possum will sometimes leave its home range altogether and set up a new one somewhere else. But generally a possum's home range is in the vicinity of 1-15 hectares.
Coincidentally, an albino Brushtail Possum living in Hampton was spotted two kilometres from where it was first seen a year previously. More information can be found here and here.
Hi Jodie, our manager of Live Exhibits has said that before white settlement, albino possums would have been quickly picked off by the many nocturnal predators that fed on them. These days there are fewer predators around (although Powerful Owls (Ninox strenua) can still be found in Bayswater) so an albino possum has a better chance of survival. Albinos are sighted occasionally around Melbourne suburbs, so the best option is to let it go about its business.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Updates on what's happening at Melbourne Museum, the Immigration Museum, Scienceworks, the Royal Exhibition Building, and beyond.
Thanks Caitlin for your keen eyes - we are on to it, hopefully the updated information will be published on the next scheduled page refresh
