Just a couple hours after I wrote the post about my Grandpa, the hubs called to tell me that his company is transferring us.
Guess God wanted to help me check things off of my 101 in 1001 list. Things like:
Which all leads to things like:

Needless to say, I'll be MIA for a bit longer. Trying to keep in touch with twitter. I will need your house hunting tips!
I'll do my best to keep you updated, while I live like this.

MWL notes: Cubs patient with Baez
Chiefs shortstop adjusting to Midwest League, breaking balls
By Curt Rallo / Special to MLB.com | June 14, 2012 6:57 AM ET
So it's no doubt that the Cubs -- who drafted Baez in the first round of the 2011 Draft, making him the No. 9 pick overall and second shortstop selected -- would treat the 19-year-old like a jeweler shining a precious stone.
When Cubs players broke camp after Spring Training, Baez didn't head to Peoria and instead was sent to work out at the team's complex in Arizona. In fact, he didn't play his first game for the Chiefs until Memorial Day.
"There's an old adage, it's a lot easier to move somebody up than to move them back," Cubs vice president of player personnel Oneri Fleita said. "You're talking about a young man from the state of Florida. It's real cold in Peoria. We wanted to make sure he had his feet on the ground. It's his first season. When you're dealing with your top prospect, you want to be on the conservative side."
Fleita said that the Cubs explained the process to Baez, and that he understood and accepted it well.
"Javier understood why he didn't go to Peoria right away," Fleita said of the 6-foot-2, 205-pound right-handed hitter. "He understands we have a process set up and that we'll follow it to the letter. Being in Arizona, in a controlled atmosphere, allowed him to get a good handle on what's expected every day from the organization, and it gave us a chance to get to know him. He also got a lot of extra work, and that allowed him to be prepared to join the Peoria Chiefs."
So far, Baez has adjusted well -- through 15 games, Baez was batting .315 with two homers and eight RBIs.
"When you're in Arizona, and you don't have the long bus trips that they have in the Midwest League, you don't lose any travel time," Fleita added. "You can get extra time getting a whole lot more ground balls, swinging, working on double plays and working on the finer points of a game. He got a whole lot of extra attention from coaches in a lot of different areas of the game."
Baez said that he made good use of his time in Arizona.
"I was working hard in Arizona, so I could come to Peoria and kept working for the team," Baez said. "I just keep hitting the ball like I'm hitting and working on my swing. I realize there are more people before me. I was just relaxing and doing my job. I was working on hitting the ball to the right side."
Now that he's in Peoria, he's still working on fine-tuning his swing and approach.
"It's different here than what I faced in Arizona," Baez said. "Here, they throw more breaking balls and mix it up. It's not hard, but every time I sit on the fastball, but the pitchers mix it up a lot. I'm still learning the game. My goal is to keep learning and [to] try to do my best."
Walk-off, take two: The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers put a bite on the Beloit Snappers in their last at-bat -- twice -- and each time the hero was Yadiel Rivera. The 20-year-old shortstop belted a three-run homer in the bottom of the 10th inning for a 5-2 victory. The next night, he delivered an RBI single in the ninth for an 8-7 win as the Rattlers rallied from a 6-2 deficit.
Simmons sizzles: South Bend reliever Seth Simmons had his scoreless streak snapped Tuesday when he gave up three runs against Lake County. Simmons, who hadn't allowed a run in his last 10 appearances (15 1/3 innings), does have a home scoreless streak still intact. He hasn't given up a run at Coveleski Stadium all season (14 1/3 innings), and has only yielded runs in two of the 19 games in which he's pitched. Simmons, a 5-foot-9 righty from Winston-Salem, N.C., was a 40th-round pick last summer.
Diamond value: The Dayton's Dragons are the most valuable Class A franchise and the eighth-most valuable franchise in all of Minor League Baseball, according to Forbes. (The most valuable franchise is the Sacramento River Cats.) Valued at $23 million, the Dragons own the record for professional sports' longest consecutive sellout streak, having sold out every home game in its 13-season history at 7,230-seat Fifth Third Field.

The new season of a certain cable-TV drama set in an ad agency in the early '60s is underway. And aside from making us crave Pall Malls and gimlets, it's making us wonder what the likes of Sterling Cooper would've done with some of the junk we sell. The dynamic illustrations, the cool layouts, the verbal wit, the casual sexism - your challenge this week:
Show us an ad for a past or current Woot product, as created by the ad men on Mad Men.
You can create your own entirely new ad or alter an existing one, but you will get points for starting from scratch.
Post your entry here by 11:59 AM (central) on Monday, August 31, 2009. Prizes are $20/$50/$100 for 3rd/2nd/1st. The rules and criteria for winning: our panel of volunteer judges can and will make stuff up as it goes along. Use Photoshop, linoleum blocks, pastels, MSPaint, cave painting, tattoos, tribal scarification, whatever, but it'll only be judged if it's visible in our forums as a jpg, gif, or png. As we are fond of saying, try to keep your maximum width to 550px. If you need a place to host your pictures, try www.imageshack.ws or www.photobucket.com. We have no connection to either, but they seem free and easy to use. And if you want us to be sure your entry was indeed your work, post links to your source images. The more sure we are that you did your own work, the more likely we are to consider it for a prize.
Wow -- I think I'm going to have to brush up on my Mad Men for this contest...
never seen it. time to hit hulu.
For those of us who don't watch Mad Men, is there something special about the ad style and humor? Or does this basically mean: create a 1960's styled ad for a Woot product? Maybe I just have to watch the show to get it? I'm too lazy to actually watch it and find out...

I just watched the first episode and it is more clever than funny. In the episode, the end result for advertising lucky strikes cigarettes when the government had just labeled them as dangerous, was to label the brand as "toasted" to get away from the poisonous image.
So take that I guess as you wish.

I'm completely new to these parts of the woot forums, but I thought these Photoshop/chop contests were too funny, so I decided to participate. I haven't seen Mad Men and the little bit of research I did didn't help me understand it, so if my picture just doesn't fit the theme then I understand. Thought I would give it a go anyways.

I got that from part 1 of that article."Made in Japan right? Not so fast! Made in Japan yes, but conceived and designed in the USA."
Dan My appologies, with all the ribbing I have taken over my bike, many from you... I could not help but think it was for me...
A bit of a tirade by a Disabled U.S. Army Vet... Likely to get deleted or moved to the back room.Made in America?That's become such a lame argument, bordering on racism.
Kit I ride, buy and wear what ever I damn well please, with the money I earned here, and I am also a Vet. Like others have posted, the ones with an in your face attitude are likely posers anyhow, that only would confront you in front of other wannabees, but not alone. If I were your size I wouldnt even smile at him at him when I asked him if his name was on the title to MY Raider? No, it isn't? Then shut the f up and go try to impress someone else!'
When I wear "American jingo garb" while riding my Japanese bike I am supporting and honoring myself as an American, not the bike. The bike is nothing more then a tool to get this American to and from where ever he is going.
I love these answers! I knew this topic would get heated...By the way, I agree with most here: I am an American, and proud to spend my money on whatevet I want.
Hmmmm...Thailand ..love that place

The VoxBox of Your Dreams Has Arrived!
Please reconnect the following networks to maintain your Social Impact. The connection may have expired.
This 2-in-1 eye care + concealer formula with Antioxidant Vitamin C, Caffeine and tinted mineral pigments instantly covers dark circles and shadows. The micro-stimulating, roll-on applicator refreshes and wakes up the eye area. Roll away dark circles for a brighter, more even look.
Instantly conceals dark circles. In 1 week, the eye area is smoother, brighter-looking and more radiant.
Works great for covering up dark circles however, it sometimes looks too bright and as a result makes my dark circles more noticeable.
Although I was unsure when I first tried this product I have grown to love it and literally use it every day of my life!
I have been using this the whole month and it conceals for a little bit but I noticed that if you use it with anything else it tends to cake up and if you use it alone it doesn't stay for a long period of time
I do not typically wear makeup and this is light enough that it's ok, but still has a full coverage.
It really helps with hiding your dark circles and I was using this by itsself just under my BB cream (also by Garnier ;) and my circles were pretty much hidden.

The parliament of Burundi in a quick move passed a law making homosexuality a crime and said same-sex acts could result in prison terms between three months to two years. It is expected the Senate will agree to this action and the bill will be signed into law by President Nkurunziza as early as tomorrow. The action of the government of Burundi is in accord with similar laws being passed in the east African region. It is estimated two-thirds of African nations have laws making homosexuality a crime. In recent years, other nations such as Nigeria, Zimbabwe and Uganda have threatened to strengthen laws against gays and lesbians.
The laws are not being pushed by any groups within these nations but appears to emanate from members of the government who are reacting against drives for gay and lesbian rights. The International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission(IGLHRC) argues "imprisoning people simply because of who they love offends every principle of human rights." Paula Entelbrick, who represents the group, says anti-homosexuality laws arise less from people engaging in homosexual love and more from the emergence of gay and lesbian activist groups.
The only result of such laws is to drive people underground and to increase the probability of the spread of HIV.

text: She has slightly poor jumping technique on sal, toe and especially axel. She doesn't look like she'll have the side-by-side jumps required by a champion unless she sorts that out. It's okay for an 85 pound girl but as she matures into a new body she will not be able to squeak those jumps out. I'm trying to be realistic and I promise I'm not a super pessimist! I just hope that it's resolved sooner rather than later. Look at Vera Bazarova. Beautiful, beautiful pairs skater!! But her side-by-sides (although admittedly much worse than Natasha's) will hold that pair down from their true potential indefinitely. Such a shame. As for her skating, she is no Narumi but with the right training she can improve lines, extension etc. Look at Meagan Duhamel. Trying to be more optimistic

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Interesting project you have there.
Your thinking is sound, it is beneficial to maintain the exit angle of the exhaust port, and seeing that you have room for it, why not? I would assume that anything that salvages as much heat and velocity from the port is good for the turbo.
My guess is that the factory created that exit angle in the interests of efficiency, it is straighter than the 90 degree bend in 'exhibit A'.
Building Headers, Exhaust port exit angle question
As the title says, building 304 tubular headers for 97 Pontiac turbo v6 (not GN motor) converted from FWD to RWD
I was looking at the usual:
Courtesy of standard abrasives
As you can see the exhaust port exits the head perpendicular to the flange mating surface
However on the ported heads I am using for my project (Iron heads on the right):
Courtesy of zzperformance
The exhaust ports exit at an angle of about 22 degrees from the flange mating surface.
I was thinking that it would be beneficial to exhaust flow if the primaries were welded to the flange at the same angle as the the exhaust runners so there would not be a sudden sharp turn right at the transition.
My question to everyone here is is my logic sound or is there a veriable I am missing here ie: the exit angle is there to prevent exhaust reversion etc
I have plenty of room in the engine compartment (best pic I have on hand)
I think its about a foot on either side
Thanks for the help

Before I pull out the credit card and just start buying a bunch of stuff from Man of War Studios, FettPride, or BobaMaker, I thought I'd ask for some advice from everyone on my ESB era build. I'm gonna start with the soft parts of the suit first. Here are my options as I see them...
1. Evolution Props sells a complete soft parts set for about $450. This includes the boots, braids, both belts, neck & head seals, and gloves. Looks like it's a tailored fit, seeing as you need to include a bunch of different measurements.
2. Start with a couple Dickies short sleeve speedsuits. Grab mum's sewing machine and go from there. Sew my own spats, cargo & leg pouches, neck seal, flak vest, and put some longer sleeves on the existing suit. There are a couple really nice tutorials on this site for doing some of this.
3. Same as 2, but maybe ring up LadySewsForUs for the flightsuit.
It might be in bad taste to ask, but are there any places to maybe avoid for parts? I'm thinking about Bobamaker for gauntlets and jetpack, Asok for the helmet (are they fibreglass?), and swprops or StarForce for the codpiece/buttplate and maybe the back plate. I want to make the rest of the armor myself with some Sintra. Thanks in advance, everyone, and wish me luck!

Resource Nation provides how-to purchasing guides, tips for selecting business service providers, and a free quote-comparison service that allows business owners to compare price and service offerings in more than 100 categories from restaurant POS systems to credit card processing.
According to a recent Retail Systems Research study, more than 93% of retail stores identified "shrinkage" -- inventory loss due to theft, accounting errors, or inventory mismanagement -- as a high priority in the coming years. More than 63% of respondents believe that "better business intelligence" will help them cut total operating expenses.
These retailers are right to think that better inventory control is possible with the right tools. One way for retail and service industry businesses to cut costs, manage inventory, and streamline sales is through the use of Point of Sale, or POS systems. Is it time for your business to look into POS?
What Does A POS System Do?
At their most basic, POS systems act as electronic cash registers: they ring up purchases, calculate sales tax amounts, and create records of customer payments. You can buy industry-specific POS software for many types of businesses: restaurant POS systems, hotel POS software, salon scheduling and inventory management programs, and other offerings are available at a range of prices and capabilities. Basic POS systems can handle every facet of customer transactions (returns, refunds, etc.), and POS systems can also be used for inventory management and customer database creation.
Types Of POS Systems
Business POS systems come in several flavors. Some systems are designed to be used at a single cash register terminal, while others link together multiple terminals. Some POS systems run from a central "hub" or central computer, while others are hosted online.
A stand-alone terminal, often referred to as an electronic cash register or ECR, is the most basic type of system configuration. Software for a single transaction station can be purchased or hosted online, and can be as advanced or simple as your business needs. A Network System is one where multiple terminals are linked together, with a single station (one equipped with more memory and processing power) acting as the "primary" terminal. Controller-based systems operate similarly -- a single machine acts as the "hub" for collecting data, generating reports, and storing inventory and other data.
Which configuration is right for your business depends on your specific needs: smaller businesses with just one location usually find a stand-alone terminal or a linked network system to be sufficient. Businesses with e multiple locations, a high transaction volume, or multiple-step transactions (restaurants and other service industry companies) often require more advanced solutions.
The type of system you choose won't have too much impact on the features you are able to use. ECRs, Network, and Controller-based systems can all be configured to work with industry-specific software or advanced software and hardware features.
Web-based POS vs. Purchased Software
POS software is the backbone of any POS system. The software determines available features and the hardware you'll need. Software is typically either hosted (Web-based) or purchased as a "package" from a POS dealer. Each option offers its own distinct advantages.
Web-based software is like leasing a program: you pay a monthly fee to the software provider (sometimes a set up fee is also required) and can quickly download the program to your controlling computer, primary terminal, or workstation. Some advanced programs may require more technical support -- most Web-based software providers offer help desk access, maintenance, and repair options as part of the monthly service cost. Web-based POS programs require an Internet connection in order to use the system (if your connection goes down, you may not be able to use the system). In addition, to ensure proper functionality, most vendors require a dedicated power supply and a minimum connection speed.
One advantage of using a Web-based system is third-party data backup. Studies have found that 31% of computer users have lost all of their files to events beyond their control, and 60% of businesses that lose their data will shut down within 6 months of the disaster. A Web-based system allows you to backup information (inventory, customer data) easily and automatically. Web-based systems also allow remote access and easier, cost-free software updates. Costs for Web-based POS software begin at several hundred dollars a month and run up to thousands of dollars per month.
Purchased software is a popular choice for businesses that want a high level of customization or want to minimize costs -- whether up front costs or monthly fees. POS software is purchased at the time the system is implemented, and is wholly owned by the business that buys it. No monthly fees, but you do have to pay for upgrades, updates, and maintenance. Purchased software ranges in cost from free (mostly open-source, downloadable options) to several thousands of dollars for advanced solutions.
Some POS software programs come in both Web-based and proprietary options. Industry specific options, those that work with existing hardware, or systems that are highly customizable are available for all types of POS system configurations.

Tar Heels Down Northwestern, 11-8
CHAPEL HILL - Fifth-ranked North Carolina jumped out to a 7-1 first-half lead and held off a rally from top-ranked Northwestern to defeat the Wildcats, 11-8, on Friday night in women's lacrosse action from Fetzer Field. The win breaks a four-game Tar Heel losing streak to the defending NCAA champions and is UNC's first win over the Wildcats since 2010.
Carolina (3-1) wins its third consecutive game since dropping its season opener to Florida. Northwestern falls to 2-1.
Abbey Friend led the Tar Heels with three goals, including Carolina's final two goals of the game in the last 15 minutes as it held off the Wildcat rally. Friend's goal with 1:13 to go in the contest essentially iced the victory for Carolina.
"It was definitely a strong team effort for us," Tar Heel head coach Jenny Levy said after the game. "I thought we did a great job of sharing the ball. Even though they beat us pretty badly on the draw, we made some good stops defensively and were very patient in getting good shots."
Sammy Jo Tracy had two goals and an assist for UNC. Taylor George tallied two goals and one assist, Kara Cannizzaro scored twice and Emily Garrity dished out two assists. Jessica Griffin and Aly Messinger each scored single goals for Carolina, and Brittney Coppa added an assist.
Alyssa Leonard led Northwestern with two goals and 12 draw controls as the Wildcats won 16 of 21 draws in the game. Erin Fitzgerald, Taylor Thornton, Amanda Macaluso, Haydyn Anigian, Kelly Rich and Ali Cassera each scored one goal for Northwestern. Jess Carroll had an assist.
Carolina's pair of goalkeepers each played a half and both played well in the cage. Senior Lauren Maksym (3-1) started and played the first half, recording two saves and limited the Wildcats to four first-half goals in picking up her third victory of the year. Freshman Megan Ward played the second half and made six saves while also allowing four goals. Bridget Bianco (2-1) went the distance in the cage for the Wildcats, making six saves.
George got the scoring started in the first minute with an unassisted goal at 29:04, take the ball from right to left around the back of the cage and scoring in the top right of the net. Anigian responded less than 30 seconds later with an unassisted goal at the other end of the field. Tracy made it 2-1 Tar Heels with a free position goal at 24:07. Just over a minute later at 22:48, Friend scored unassisted for a 3-1 UNC advantage.
Messinger scored from her knees right in front of the cage off a pass from Tracy at the 22:04 mark to make it 4-1 Carolina. George's second goal came at 20:48 off a pass from Garrity, making it 5-1 Tar Heels. Tracy's second goal came at 19:31, this time off an assist from Garrity, to make it 6-1 and force a Wildcat timeout.
Cannizzaro scored unassisted with a lefthanded shot at 15:50 to make it 7-1 Tar Heels. Fitzgerald scored unassisted with a high shot at 15:05 to break the 6-0 Tar Heel run and make it 7-2. Cassera's unassisted goal at 14:15 made it 7-3. It was 7-4 after a man-up goal by Rich came at 8:52 of the first half. Neither team scored the rest of the way in the opening half. Carolina out-shot the Wildcats 13-9 and had 11 ground balls to Northwestern's six in the first 30 minutes. The Wildcats won 9 of 12 first-half draws.
Cannizzaro scored on a free position try at 25:49 of the second half to give UNC an 8-4 advantage. Thirty seconds later it was 9-4 Tar Heels after Griffin scored off a pass from George from behind the cage.
The Wildcats then went on a 3-0 run to cut it to 9-7. Thornton scored unassisted from the top of the eight-meter arc with 21:47 left to make it 9-5 Carolina, then Leonard took a pass from Carroll with 21:18 left to make it 9-6. Macaluso scored unassisted after the next draw to make it 9-7 and force a UNC timeout with 20:11 to go.
Friend stopped the Wildcat run with a goal at 15:09 off a pass from Coppa from the right of the net. Leonard responded with her second goal with 14:40 to go, making it 10-8 Tar Heels. Friend scored an unassisted goal out of the stall game with 1:13 left for an 11-8 UNC lead to ice the game.
Carolina will return to action next Saturday (March 2) at Penn.

Breaking the silence about Spring
Did you know that in 1965 the U.S. Department of Agriculture planted a particular variety of lilac in more than seventy locations around the U.S. Northeast, to detect the onset of spring — in turn to be used to determine the appropriate timing of corn planting and the like? The records the USDA have kept show that those same lilacs are blooming as much as two weeks earlier than they did in 1965. April has, in a very real sense, become May. This is one of the interesting facts that you'll read about in Amy Seidl's book, Early Spring, a hot-off-the-press essay about the impacts of climate change on the world immediately around us – the forest, the birds, the butterflies in our backyards.
The brilliant title of Seidl's book was one of the reasons that it caught my attention. The other was that I have realized I need to better educate myself about the impact of climate change on everyday life. I've been dismissive of the idea that the average person can really detect the impacts of recent warming on, for example, the timing of the apple-blossom season, but I've been taken to task by several of RealClimate's readers for this. If you are paying attention, they have argued, the changes are actually rather obvious.
Of course, Amy Seidl is not the average person. Rather, she's a trained ecologist with a Ph.D. (as well as an avid gardener) and she's clearly paying extremely close attention. Her book is the first one I have read that effectively brings home the tangible impacts that global warming will have – is having – on our everyday lives. "We are increasingly familiar," she writes, of images of melting glaciers, "but how do we give them relevance in our lives? From my window I see no glaciers." She answers her own question with a series of vignettes, some from her own experiences, many more from her extensive research (well referenced throughout the book).
Cardinals, robins and cowbirds are all arriving earlier in Vermont than they did a century ago. Kingfishes, fox sparrows and towhees are not. Why the difference? The answer, as Seidl explains, is that the former group has the ability to respond ecologically to the changes, because these birds cue their arrival to temperature. The latter, it appears, respond more directly to temporal cues, that won't change even as climate does. It's obvious from this example that the make up of bird life in Vermont – the species distribution – will change over time. This may not necessarily be a bad thing of course. On the other hand, it turns out that the robins are the most important host for West Nile virus; the early bird gets the worm, so to speak, and passes it along to humans.
Maple seedlings need about 100 days of below-freezing weather. As this becomes rarer, fewer maples will populate the forests. This, Seidl explains, is why species-range models predict the decline and eventual loss of sugar maple (at least in New England) in the future. But, she notes, the models don't take into account the full complexity of the system, such as the impact of competition among different species. So we don't really know what will happen, or how fast. What we do know is that maple-sugar farmers have noticed – and documented – an earlier maple sugaring season over the last few decades.
There are many other examples in Early Spring both of clear climate-related changes (such as the early arrival of robins), and of less clear-cut changes (the maple sugaring season). Seidl doesn't make the common mistake of assuming that the more ambiguous examples are necessarily due to climate change. For example, she quotes a maple-sugarer who points out that technological changes have allowed them to tap maples earlier, and hence that the timing of sugaring is a weak measure of climate change. The point though, is that even rather minor changes are, after all, being noticed. And if much larger changes do occur, as predicted, they will most certainly have impacts we can't ignore, even if we don't live in the Arctic or in Bangladesh. In other words, Seidl tells us, listen to the farmers and gardeners, and the observations of regular people: they are meaningful.

Brazilian Forest
Martin Johnson Heade
American, 1819-1904
Brazilian Forest, 1864
Oil on canvas
51 x 40.6 cm (20 1/16 x 16 inches)
Gift of Mr. and Mrs. C. Richard Steedman 68.052
In late 1863 Martin Johnson Heade traveled to Brazil on a joint scientific and artistic mission. Seeking local species of hummingbirds to depict in oil paintings and chromolithographs, he also indulged his botanical interests by making carefully annotated sketches of the flora of Brazil's dense forests, and relied on these the following year when he painted this picture in his London studio. The painting's featured specimen, a tall fern that springs from the right foreground, is bathed in a soft light that distinguishes the structure of each frond. As a narrative touch, Heade added a figure in a straw hat and a tiny dog who discover the sparkling waterfall at the center of the composition.

Hello, my name is Stephen and this truck has been at a local scrapyard since it was new, it has been sitting for about 10-13 years I think. I've known it was there but I keep putting off posting about it. Anyway, I was unloading some metal today and with the permission of the yard owner, I snapped some other photos of it in addition to the ones I already had. The owner refuses to scrap the truck and I think I was told he still has the original window sticker for it in the office. He wants to either sell it or restore it. I think it would be neat if somebody got ahold of it and made a flat bed out of it and hauled some classic cars with it.Condition wise, aside from an obvious mechanical restoration being needed, it is missing one marker light lense and the front fenders need a lot of TLC or even replaced. It is otherwise all there.Here's my older photos (taken in about 2009):I'll get my new photos shortly, not bad a find, eh? If onyl I had the money or SPACE to take it on.
Oh, and the fellow does want to see it go to a good home, so if anyone is interested, I'll give them the contact info for the place.
what a great looking truck...only issue.. converting to a car hauler requires meeting current DOT regs... and i don't think the brake system will pass that for commercial service inspections today.. more than likely.. newer axles both front and rear with their current brakes could be swapped on easily.. somebody took a lot of care of that truck to survive that clean after this many years.. my friend tried something like that with a much older 5 ton chevy truck... he was hauling concrete blocks to a job he was doing.. he saved a lot of money by picking them up.. oops... the CHP in their pickup pulled him over and wrote him a massive ticket.. made him offload the truck onto a rental right there on the side of the freeway.. would not let it move one foot with a load on it.. it was then a grocery getter.. as long as he carried everything in the cab and the bed was empty.. the 46 had lived its life on an almond ranch. they had 12 and this one had refused to start for quite a few decades.. and it was just left untouched as they had so many others... eventually the wife sold it to my friend... it took him probably a day to flush the fluides and get it all running. issue with the primary wiring to the points kept it in the shed for probably 40 years. there was only a ding in one fender and one side that faces out was a little faded. i used to see it about 10 miles from the el segundo magazine offices.. but i have not been in that area in a few years..
Yea, you are probably right. The body and chassis have the value here. But the job is certainly possible! I wonder, how many of these old Internationals are left? I doubt very many.
It's a great project for the right person. A guy sold a friend of mine a 53 Chevy providing it was done in 2 years. True story, my lost friend called me last summer to tell me the Chevy was done. 20 years later NO CHIT. The guy that sold it to him had since passed and never saw the car done. I built the driveline. Then resealed it 2 times afterwards. This so called friend of mine lost most of his friends over this car. The car was complete except for an interior, and little odds and ends. I remember we made 3 seperate trips to get the extra parts the guy had.The car was complete just needed to be finised....Bob
Man does that stink! Sounds almost like a "Christine" story.
Hey! That's a great find! Reminds me of the truck I saw at a SIMS center not too far away when I went down there to sell my junk car. It wasn't in too bad a shape so I picked up the tires and the battery at a good price. If you're curious, you can look up http://us.simsmm.com/Sell-to-Us/Scrap-Cars-and-Vehicles if you ever need to sell metal scrap these guys usually offer a good rate. Ill keep you in mind if at all I decide to take up a new project. Bye for now!

There is an apparent build up proceeding of coalition forces which are stationed on the border of Pakistan. Villagers and officials in the area, claim hundreds of coalition troops have been airlifted to the border area near the Lawara village. One official said: "The coalition troops have started to strengthen their positions after setting up camp in the border areas adjacent to the Pak-Afghanistan border and US helicopters have ben spotted hovering over target areas as support." There are unconfirmed reports American helicopters are transporting tanks and other heave equipment for an operation. Pakistan General Athar Abbas played down the situation saying it was probably a routine movement and the media had created "unnecessary hype."
The Pakistan general admitted "we have no co-ordination and communication with each other." However, other reports indicate the Pakistan army in the area has been placed on full alert. A spokesperson for coalition forces insists troops are merely dealing with issues on the Afghan side of the border and there are no plans for operating inside Pakistan without permission of its government.
This may simply be much ado about nothing but there is growing evidence from statements by President Bush and other American officials that something could happen such as an incursion into Pakistan on grounds there is need for hot pursuit of fleeing insurgents.

Looks likeyou;ve been hanging out in Yuppieburg Brooklyn Ive seen some of those cars on berry
Somebody mentioned that one in my old thread. Sounds hard to miss, but I still haven't run into it yet.
A few I forgot to post, and a couple random shots from VT as well:

MrMook, I was about to say, "hmm, that looks like Brooklyn" and then I saw your sig. You in Williamsburg?
Technically I live in Greenpoint, but I spend a lot of time in Williamsburg, too.
A lot of these are totally unremarkable (trucks/jeeps) ... guess it all depends on where ya live!
That rolling shot is definitely the hottest Forrester I've ever seen.
don't ever see Alfa Milanos though. my fav. Italien car of all time (and I hate 4-doors ... )
(wait, forgot about the F355. So #2, for sure).
that had to have been another truck, if not a train ... or perhaps a bridge.
And this has to be an intentional decoy, right?
I can't imagine it doesn't get tagged at least once a day!
minus the front seat I just noticed .. and maybe not on a rainy day
Must evoke high school memories, cruising in a Comet ...

The wand of Poppy Pomfrey is of an unknown length and wood and core materials.
She most likely purchased it at the age of eleven from Ollivanders before beginning her education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In 1997, Poppy Pomfrey, along with a number of other members of Hogwarts staff and various students, raised her wand to get rid of the Dark Mark over the Hogwarts Astronomy Tower, and as a sign of respect for late Albus Dumbledore.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
My step dad is a know-it-all, he knows everything, at least he thinks he does.
He knows more about being a girl than I do. He knows more about wearing high heels than I do. He knows more about having periods than I do.
Anyways, even though he has never owned a PB GSD or a Dalmatian, he knows more about both breeds than I do and he especially knows more about my dogs than I do. He always tells me his opinions on why they do this or that, he tells me what I should and shouldn't do with them and how I should and shouldn't train them.
Although I 100% agree with you that people need to ask before petting a dog…the fact is, when you bring your dog somewhere "special" where they are actually getting special treatment and being allowed into a place where they usually wouldn't be…you're kind of telling the world around you that your dog is safe and stable. If I see a dog at an outdoor patio restaurant, a pet store, or a busy street fair of some sort…my assumption is that the dog is safe in all situations.
I'll admit, I rarely, if ever don't get asked. I don't remember if I've ever ran into someone that hasn't asked. I know I've been to street fairs where people would walk by, my dog would stick his nose out a little towards them (picking up a smell) and they'd reach out and while walking by give him a pet on the head. The way I look at it, most people don't know that they should ask. And bringing your dog to a place like that, is a borderline advertisement that you have a good dog and you want him around you and other people. I just think that's how people see those situations.
What I have seen, is that if I'm actively training, and the dog is clearly engaged with me. People tend to watch and not interrupt until I'm either done or they get tired of waiting.
|A girl and her dog
Here's my rant - not necessarily training advice problems, but dumb things people do.
I had an argument with a petco worker b/c I got in between her and my dog when she went to pet him. I had the two dogs in the cart (keeps them from having accidents, and allows for more control when I have to actually look at something) and she came up to us, not saying anything to me at all, and starts going for my dog. I was p!ssed!! But all I said was "whoa, hang on, you should ask first, I'm not sure how he'll react..." Well, she got seriously offended and gave me some back talk to which I defended my position. We went back and forth a couple of times before I just turned away. I still can't believe she actually argued this with me.
I don't like it when people come up and just go for the dog, not unlike a toddler with zero impulse control would do, without even asking or acknowledging my presence. This isn't the first time an employee at this location has done something stupid like this. My little dog almost bit two employees for doing basically the same thing; one was the trainer! She should have known better and no longer works there. What is it with these employees that makes them think they are all the dog whisperer and know everything?
Other members of my household (I'm an adult, living with my mother and stepfather) cannot understand, even in plain English, what to do about the dogs jumping on them when they come in the door. Biggest impediment to our training! Next would be guests/family members that come in and start giving my dogs commands and yelling at them. If they would just shut up, I could get them under control. If anyone would even bother to tell me they were coming, I could handle the situation before hand.
One thing that irks me is those who are living solely reactively and not proactively. Especially with pets.

I cannot stand a yippy, bratty little dog. I make it my mission to train my small dog just as I would (and do) train a large dog. The same rules apply, the same manners are warranted. No jumping on people, couch/chair/bed/laps only if invited and they must get down when asked, no barging the door and certainly NO going out of the door without explicit permission.... no excessive barking, no babying or coddling for being small, no special privileges for being small. I don't even like family members to favor or dote on my little dog too much... you get the idea.
An untrained small dog is a real danger to itself. That's really the bottom line.

India has been plauged ofr centuries over the issue of its complex hierarchy of castes and jobs and positions in society. Thousands of members of the Gujjar tribe demonstrated in the streets of Dehli demanding that their classification be changed to a lower rung in the hierarchy in order to improve opportunities for education and jobs. Police fired tear gas at demonstrators who vowed to continue their fight until their demands were met. In the complex divisive system the Gujjars are clasified as belonging to the country's second lowest group known as Other Backward Classes. They want to be classified as belonging to the lowest caste who are the Dalits or commonly referred to as the Untouchables.
The Gujjars sawy they have faced discrimination in jobs, health care, and education, but if they were reclassified to being an Untouchable they would be eligible for government positions and unversity places that are reserved for that group. The Indian government reserves about half of all sets in State colleges and unijversities for lower castes and tribal groups to make up for centuries of prejudice.
The complex world of the Indian Caste system makes American racial divisions come across as much easier to resolve.

I would make sure you have your trigger bar spring properly seated in the correct locations. It's probably possible to reinstall it improperly and still get trigger response.
now thats from a 226 but i imagine its the same for a 220, and Im not sure how you could install it wrong, but I've seen crazier things happen. my guess is that somehow the spring is somehow over seated into the mag well.
another thing you could do is to inspect your mag's, look for scratches or excessive wear, that could point you towards your hang up.. hope it helps

EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) Ailing head coach Jerry Kill watched from the coaches' box as Minnesota turned two second half turnovers into scores en route to a 20-17 Big Ten victory over Northwestern Saturday afternoon.
The Gophers (5-2, 1-2) snapped a two-game losing streak as James Manuel broke a 7-7 tie with a 24-yard third quarter interception return and Chris Hawthorne turned another Wildcat turnover into a 34-yard field goal in the fourth.
Host Northwestern (4-3, 0-3) dropped its third straight.
Kill, on indefinite leave after a series of epileptic seizures, watched Manuel picked off Wildcat quarterback Trevor Siemian with 1:22 for a go-ahead score. The Gophers made it 17-7 just 87 seconds later on Hawthorne's field goal after recovering a Wildcat fumble.
Hawthorne's 38-yard field goal with 5:24 remaining made it 20-10. Northwestern cut the deficit to 20-17 on a 10-yard touchdown strike from Siemian to Tony Jones with 2:07 remaining.

Regular cleaning and sanitization of ice cream machines helps ensure food safety. Foodservice operators can also take a number of other steps to ensure they properly maintain these units.
It's important to follow local health codes when cleaning ice cream machines.
Here are five steps foodservice operators should follow when maintaining an ice cream machine. Keep in mind, though, that the manufacturer's instructions need to take precedence.
Changing scraper blades regularly is important, because blades that are not in good condition leave a film of frozen product on the cylinder walls. This buildup can compromise the unit, causing longer freeze times.
Some manufacturers offer heat treatment soft-serve equipment that only has to be disassembled and cleaned once every 14 days. This saves cleaning time, water and chemicals as well as enhances food safety.

Katherine Luna Video Scandal
Last Sunday in GMA's Showbiz Central, the former sexy actress Katherine Luna was interviewed regarding an alleged video scandal concerning her and her ex-boyfriend. The hot seat interview was focused on an alleged private video that was leaked by her non-showbiz ex-boyfriend. The Katherine Luna video scandal is already out and many have already seen what the scandalous video was all about. Katherine, who defended herself said that she was blackmailed and that the reason why her boyfriend released the scandalous video/s was because he wanted to bring Katherine Luna back to his arms. But Katherine Luna already gave up on him due to the fact that she's already been emotionally and physically abused in the hands of his ex-bf. On the other side of the story, the ex-bf also shared his side of the story and that he was not sorry for releasing the private video and he seeks revenge and there are more from his private video collections that would soon come out. Although some of us may wonder how come this alleged Katherine Luna video scandal just came out of nowhere just in time for the Katrina Halili video scandal and Maricar Reyes video scandal fever. Is this just a publicity stunt for Katherine Luna's dying career? Or is it a trend to all Filipina actresses to come out in the open and tell the world that they unexpectedly taped their escapades and they want us to feast on it. Oh well!
Take a peek at the Katherine Luna video scandal interview after the jump.

PRIME Minister Julia Gillard says she is "sickened'' by the ACC report that has sent shockwaves through the Australian sporting community.
Australian sport's darkest day plunged the AFL and NRL into crisis yesterday and rocked elite sport, amid revelations that entire teams doped.
Sports scientists, coaches and club support staff have orchestrated the drug use of players, aided by dodgy doctors, pharmacists and even anti-ageing clinics which have supplied new-age performance enhancing peptides and hormones.
Ms Gillard, who is in Queenstown for bilateral talks with New Zealand Prime Minister John Key, said it was a dark day for Australian sport.
"We are people who go and sit at grounds or watch sport on TV and marvel at amazing sporting prowess,'' she told reporters.
"We cheer on the deeds, and the sense that anything we've seen has actually been fuelled by banned substances would be pretty sickening for sports fans. It's pretty sickening for me.''
Sports bosses have criticised a lack of detail in the report, saying it has tarred all athletes with the same brush.
Ms Gillard said she understood the public's desire for more information, but it was up to the ACC to decide its next steps.
In further developments today:
- Fremantle CEO Steve Rosich admitted the AFL club has injected players with vitamins to aid their recovery but said the Dockers have nothing to fear from investigations stemming from the bombshell report.
- An Aussie journalist writing for a UK newspaper claimed that the AFL and NRL had wilfully ignored cheating for years and intimidated journalists trying to expose wrongdoing.
AFL, NRL 'allowed cheating to fester'
- Penrith NRL supremo Phil Gould said the ACC report had damaged the reputations of every innocent athlete in Australian sport and demanded that more information be made public.
- Football Federation CEO David Gallop has insisted the sport is not under investigation in the wake of the ACC report despite reports of a police investigation into a $40m off-shore gambling plunge on a single A-League match.
- Leading Australian rugby union figures say they are confident use of illegal supplements is not a problem at the professional levels of the 15-man code.
- AFL club West Coast chief executive Trevor Nisbett says he has "the utmost faith" that the Eagles are clean of drug allegations sweeping Australian sport, but conceded it was impossible for any club to be "100 per cent" certain.
Police involvement 'overdue'
Leading sports administrator Malcolm Speed said today that the introduction of state police sport integrity forces is long overdue.
"Criminals don't come along with tattoos on their forehead telling us that they're criminals," Speed, who is executive director of the coalition of major professional and participation sports, told ABC radio.
"They're members of the community, they're often sports fans, they become involved with clubs or players.
"You can't expect sporting clubs to investigate their own supporters, they simply don't know who they (the criminal elements) are."
The head of the Australian college of physicians said clubs needed to leave injections to doctors.
"Too often sporting organisations outsource the provision of supplements to individuals within the organisation who have inadequate expertise," Jamieson told AAP.
Jamieson noted there were significant health risks associated with some supplements, and having an unqualified person in charge of their use could be dangerous for athletes.
"(If) doctors are responsible for the administration of drugs to athletes then the likelihood is that those WADA codes aren't going to be breached," he said.
"Doctors have an ethical code around drug administration. They understand the balance between benefit and side effect."
This morning, former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said more information is needed on who exactly was involved in doping, and to what extent.
"The core challenge now is to establish the facts,'' Mr Rudd told the Seven Network today.
"We all know how central sport is to the Australian identity ... it's because we actually believe in fair play and that's who we are.
"That is now being torpedoed by this report.
"The key thing now is to establish the facts - which players, which clubs - because I'm a bit concerned about every person out there who we've all watched, admired ... is now walking around with a total cloud over their head."
The Punch: Nobody puts Kevin in a corner
Meanwhile, the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA) said the importation of peptides has exploded, with seizures up 255 per cent over the past year.
ASADA chief Aurora Andruska says her organisation had been warning sporting bodies and codes that peptides were the "new generation" of performance-enhancing substance.
AFL chief sympathises with fans
AFL CEO Andrew Demetriou said he sympathised with fans who were disillusioned after yesterday's events.
"I can understand fully if there are people today who have asked themselves (how can I trust the game?) ... I'm very sympathetic," he told radio station 3AW.
"(But) the vast percentage of people at our clubs are role models for the sport."
But Demetriou's deputy, Gillon McLachlan, warned it could take months for anything concrete to come of the investigation.
"(The investigation) may take some time, that's the reality," McLachlan told Triple M.
"We may well be many weeks, months before we have any concrete information or hard data and the reality is we might not have anything at all."
Devastating report
A devastating report from the Australian Crime Commission found the substances were being supplied in Australia by organised crime figures who have infiltrated every level of Australian sport.
As drug-taking professional athletes were urged to "come forward before you get a knock at the door", other revelations include:
- AT least one match may have been fixed and is being investigated.
- POLICE have been handed 100 pieces of intelligence by the ACC and criminals pushing performance enhancing drugs have been linked to money laundering, fraud and match-fixing.
- PLAYERS have been fed quick-metabolising drugs which are hard to detect intravenously. Some have not been approved or are rarely used on humans.
- CRIME figures have forged business partnerships with major codes.
- DOCTORS are writing scripts in false names for drugs supplied by compounding pharmacies.
- ANTI-AGEING clinics with criminal links are distributing so called "fountain of youth" peptides to athletes that can enhance performance.
- ATHLETES are supplying illicit drugs.
ACC executive director Paul Jevtovic revealed phone taps and coercive hearings had been used and he said the use of drugs not even scheduled had left the commission with "clear evidence players are being used as guinea pigs".
ACC chief executive John Lawler and Justice Minister Jason Clare said they were unable to name clubs, codes or players suspected of doping, casting a pall over all Australian sport.
NRL CEO David Smith said he had been briefed by the commission and that the findings of its report released yesterday "affects more than one player and more than one club".
The AFL has been rocked by an anti-doping investigation at Essendon and was also briefed by the commission, but Demetriou, who said "we have to do more," revealed he did not know how many players or officials were involved.
Both codes are now working with the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority and have scrambled to respond, the NRL appointing former Federal Court judge Tony Whitlam to work with authorities.
The ACC found the infiltration of organised crime and doping by team officials was similar to what the United States Anti-Doping Agency found in the case of Lance Armstrong, but on a larger scale.
"The difference is that the Australian threat is current, crosses sporting codes and is evolving," the ACC found.
'The blackest day in Australian sport'
Former ASADA chairman Richard Ings told Fox Sports yesterday: "This is not a black day in Australian sport, this is the blackest day in Australian sport."
Mr Clare said the findings were "shocking and they will disgust Australian sports fans" before he urged cheats, who could see penalties reduced if they cooperate, to own up.
"Don't underestimate how much we know and if you're involved in this come forward before you get a knock at the door," he said.
Integrity units will be established by each sporting code.
Tactics used to gain access to performance enhancing drugs, which can promote tissue repair and muscle growth and are also being used on race horses, were outlined by the ACC.
In one case, a "research" body was established to get access to peptides and hormones from a compounding pharmacy.
Doctors complicit with doping regimes were recruited and, in another instance, a sports scientist profited from the sale of peptides and hormones and "directed their application at a number of sporting clubs".
Players were often left in the dark about what was being pumped into their bodies, with no medical records kept.
"In some cases, peptides and other substances were administered to players without them understanding the nature of the substances, and without the knowledge of the team doctor," the ACC found.
Football Federation chief David Gallop yesterday said "there is nothing specific in relation to football in relation to this report" while ARU CEO Bill Pulver said the report was a "wake-up call" but he was unaware of any allegations involving union's professional teams.

In 2013, Salt Lake City will be shaped by many forces, both economic and political.
But where the rubber meets the road funding, regulations and laws the person who heads up the Salt Lake City Council could play a significant role in the coming year.
The chairman prioritizes the council's agenda and his wish list usually gets pushed toward the top.
While it's true that most of what the council deals with are initiatives hatched in the Mayor's Office, the seven-member body can modify or negate any of those budgets, ordinances and capital improvements. Or it can simply let them languish as it has over the years with such things as historic preservation and alcohol sales.
As chairman of the City Council in 2012, Soren Simonsen pushed a dynamic agenda that succeeded in creating neighborhood pubs, as well as overhauling the city's historic preservation guidelines. He also championed the Sugar House trolley line and emphasized high-density housing downtown and in his Sugar House district.
In addition, Simonsen led council initiatives to minimize building demolitions and halt creation of surface parking lots downtown, create a neighborhood small-business zone and keep the Utah Transit Authority from doing away with the downtown free-fare zone.
On Tuesday, the council will select a new chairman. Who it will be is anyone's guess at this point council members aren't showing their cards. However, some insiders hint that Councilmen Kyle LaMalfa and Charlie Luke, who both took office one year ago, may be vying for the spot.
The new council chairman must receive at least four votes of the seven possible. During its afternoon work session Tuesday, the council will cast secret ballots until one emerges as the new chairman.
One year ago, Councilman Luke Garrott joined LaMalfa and Charlie Luke to support Simonsen for chairman. Simonsen's stated goal was to steer the council toward creating its own agendas rather than just voting on the mayor's initiatives and attempting to take on the responsibility of long-term planning.
"My agenda was to give more autonomy to the council without relying on the [Becker administration's] Planning Department," Simonsen said.
Garrott is of a like mind in that he wants the council to push a policy-driven agenda, rather than simply "adjust or obstruct" the mayor's initiatives.
"The council's staff spends most of its time reviewing stuff given to us by the mayor," he said. "I'm interested in seeing our council assert its policymaking mettle."
The council chairman, however, is not all powerful. It takes at least four votes to pass an ordinance or move any initiative forward.
A good chairman will be persuasive, said Councilman Stan Penfold.
"Ideally, the chairman does check in with the body and tries to get a majority agreement," he said. "The [chairman] position is flavored by leadership. It's a council, so if the body resists, it doesn't get done."
Because the City Council is nonpartisan, there are no set voting blocs, Penfold explained. The foursome that elected Simonsen did not emerge as a bloc, either.
"There have been many 4-3 votes," Penfold said. "But they rarely break down along similar lines."
And the chairman must heed the needs of others, LaMalfa said.
No one can succeed at the chairman post by blocking people from doing what needs to get done, he said. The chairman must negotiate not only with other council members, but also with the mayor.
"The chairman is the face of the City Council," LaMalfa said. "It's important that person be charismatic and articulate the council's vision to the community."

I have prestiged once, and I am about half way to my second prestige. However, after all these years, I think I am finally getting burnt out on the COD experience. I might have been spending too much time with it I am afraid. I mean, it's a great game and all, but lately my passion has been missing. I even find myself voting for random maps now because I am not sure I want to even play on any of the maps...or play in general.
Might be time for find my new multiplayer go to game.

I haven't had any lag issues at all, other than host migration. For me it's just getting repetitious. I really should spend more time in Battlefield 3. I mean, I love BF3, but games can take much longer than COD (which normally would not be an issue), and take longer to get into than COD. The reason it's an issue for me, is my play time is limited in short spurts. BF3 is game where I would want to sit down for like 4 hours or more and relax. With COD, I can log on, play 3 rounds in about a half hour, and then go back to my real life. I have a hard time finding those longer windows to play in.

I thought MW3 was very boring and repetetive, it also felt extremely the same as its predecessor MW2. At least BO 2 offers some variety.
12-26-2012 #62Soldier 95BGuest
Well, I don't think any of them are boring. I just am finding them repetitive now as I think I am burnt out. It's game I have thousands of hours in. That is my problem, not the game problem.
12-27-2012 #63
BO2 is beast.
I admit I took a week break but I'll get right back into it and kill some kissma'ass noobs.Gaming on all platforms right now.
12-27-2012 #64
I agree! This game is absolute, 100% pure $#@!. They've overcompensated for the casuals and made the game practically unplayable.
- Most guns have no recoil
- Ghost is useless (Newsflash Trasharch, THAT'S THE $#@!ING POINT! NOT TO BE SEEN! PEOPLE STILL CAMP REGARDLESS)
- Map are pure garbage (Aside from Standoff and Slums)
- Most prestige to unlock all weapons, perks and Casualstreaks (I don't want to prestige, I wanna be a 5-Star General for life)
No worries, though, you can keep this $#@! Trasharch. You made it well known from the jump you would be looking out for the pathetic and weak players. Those who don't honor practice and patience. Ever since MW2 COD has been a Sub-machine gun, run around with your dick cut off twitch shooter. This game just makes it 100x worse. Only enjoyable with friends because they make it worth the energy to even put this trash in.
Kudos OP! I thought I was the only one.
$Greatness$ Awaits

The game is not as bad as some people will have you believe. My only problems with Black Ops II are:
Skill based match making, which leads to bad connections as the game filters out players based on their SPM rather than their location and connection speed.
Snipers being extremely easy to use as close quarters weapons.
Having to go all the way to 10th level 55 to unlock everything.
Standoff, Carrier and Aftermath.
Other than that, this has been my favorite Call of Duty since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

I actually set out with the intention of disliking the game but I find hardpoint too much fun and I think the class system makes for some interesting classes now.
It's no MW but it's certainly much better than the first Blops. Calling it the worst is a bit unfair really.
12-27-2012 #68
I have not purchased BO2 and I do not intend to. I think it is a fine game but for me it's too easy to play. My gf's brother got it on xbox and I decided to play his first before buying mine and I havent played COD since World at War. So round one I got schooled but you always need that warm up round to get your bearings. Round two was night and day I pretty much dominated throughout the rest of the game. I stayed on to make sure this wasn't some fluke tried diffferent rooms aside from a few lag issues the game is still the same. So I found myself putting the controller down the only thing that i really felt changed was zombies. To be fair i haven't played the single player but to me single player is irrelevant. Every now and then I play with him online I dont feel challenged so I would get bored with it very quickly. BF3 though I suck at that game but I cant stop playing it."I think all those developers who are saying, "We dont want to do a PS3 game," or "Its really difficult to do it," should shut up and make their games. If you have time to complain about it, then you should be spending your time working on getting the most from the hardware."

I actually don't think it's better than the first Black Ops either. The lag compensation wasn't bad like it is in this game. The perk system made more sense in Black Ops 1 as well. You weren't rewarded for being such a fail like you are in this game and MW3 before it.
But hey, that's why they have vanilla and chocolate. Everyone has a different taste for things. None of them can hold the jock of COD4: MW. None of them. Not $#@!ing one. Everything after that (Sans WAW) is trash.
$Greatness$ Awaits
12-28-2012 #72
I liked Black Ops 2 for the first two weeks, after that the game got old. There is so much aim assist in Black Ops 2, Even the grenades have aim assist on them. I mean honestly, to put aim assist on the grenades, they are on some $#@!ed up drugs over there at Activision/Treyarch. Aim assist on the grenades, WTF is up with that bull$#@!. Just take a giant rock of crack and shove it up their asses.
I ended up trading the game in today, definitely the last CoD game I buy ever again. So far I've bought CoD4, Black ops 1 and now black ops 2. I skipped WaW, MW2, MW3. I just borrowed those games.

Leveling a concrete pad
The concrete pads under air conditioner and heat exchanger units tend to settle over the years. As long as there's no strain on the copper coolant tubes and electrical lines, and the unit stays dry and level, it's OK that the pad has sunk. But if it continues to sink and pulls the lines tight, or if water puddles around the unit, you'll need to take action.
Try working a long board under one end of the pad, lifting it up, then packing sand under it. Do the same on the other end, making the pad as level as possible. Lift the pad slowly to avoid cracking it. You won't need to unhook or remove the air conditioner. However, if the pad breaks apart, have an AC technician disconnect the unit. Then, break up and remove the pad, and install a new leveled-in one. Consider replacing it with a plastic pad. They're available where air conditioners are sold and online.

A teenager dressed in black fatigues entered Albertville high school in Winnenden where he soon proceeded to fire at students and teachers in an outburst of violence which resulted in the death of 11 students and three teachers. The boy identified only as Tim K, then left the building, halted a car and drove to the town of Wendlingen where he became engaged in a shoot out with police that eventually led to his death. Police stormed the home of the boy where they discovered at least 18 guns that belonged to his father. His mother was taken into custody which most probably will be done to the father. There is great concern that weapons may have been lying around and were not locked up.
The story invariably follows the same script in these school shootings. A teacher described Tim K. as "inconspicuous" which most probably means teachers were not involved in his life. A friend described Tim K. as "disturbed" and the type of boy who is viewed as a loner y others. These shootings almost always occur in suburban or rural schools rather than urban area high schools. The boys dress in black or in fatigues as though trying to present the appearance of being part of the military. They usually fire at random and kill without any sense of signaling out those to be murdered.
Schools spend large amounts of money on "security" without ever realizing the best security in having caring teachers and having the faculty be aware of those who are loners and being outcast from their peers.
