too much fun man.. What do you put in your trap as a stopping material?
sand, and rubber mulch with wood in between.
looks like the parts worked and thanks
Is that the weapon the Brits carried in WWII...
That is a nice smooth, not too fast rate of fire. Looks very controllable.
Think??? The Brit paratroopers carried them. Awesome.
You're thinking of the STEN gun 4th, the Sterling came after the war and was a sorta more refined improved version of the STEN. The STEN was designed to be made by hundreds of little mom and pop shops who could turn out a small part or two and then ship them to a central assembly point. This was necessasry due to the Blitz, they didn't want a single bomb taking out their whole production ability. They were dirt cheap too, just an exhaust pipe for the main tube and simple to make parts inside. Consequently they weren't what most people would place in a collection next to a Purdy or Holland and Holland!
Towards the end of WWII, the British asked for improved SMG designs and the Patchett designed SMG built by Sterling was selected for very limited field testing in the closing months of the war. Naturally, with all those STENs out there and a newly ended war, it took a few years before a slightly modified version was adopted as the STEN replacement in the early 50s. Besides being more refined inside and out, the magazines were vastly improved over the STEN, with rollers on the follower and a curved shape to better accomodate the tapered 9mm case. Folding stock too.
Yeah I heard it was about $2 (40's economy) to make a STEN, and the bolt was the most expensive part.Quote:
They were dirt cheap too,
I really like that slower steady rate of rapid fire. Pirate has it running smooth.
That weapon looks very controllable.
Pretty sure our Military has the 3 round burst option, on all the new squad weapons.
That was an excellent innovation on someones part.
Usually after the 3rd round, all you are doing is pissing off tree tops.
Plus that 7.62x25 is something I would not want too get hit with.
Either way. That is one nice collectors piece.
Now if I could only hit the damn lottery. Then sneak it in the house when the old lady is not here.
"No honey calm down. That is not another gun. Why that has been in the gun room for over two years now."
If ya ever get the $$$$ 4th, there is an ATF approved method of building a Sterling on a registered STEN tube. Called a STENling, let's you buy a pre-86 STEN SMG or bare tube (common, fairly cheap) and then install a modified Sterling (rare, expensive) parts kit on it.

AMES, Iowa – In May 2011, Iowa farm women began sharing their experiences in central Africa, where 90 percent of the women living in rural areas work in agriculture. The collaboration was developed by a farmer-to-farmer project through Iowa State University's Value Added Agriculture program with cooperation from a Ugandan nonprofit organization, Volunteer Efforts for Developing Concerns (VEDCO).
The rural development project, Bridging the Gap: Increasing Competitiveness of Ugandan Women Farmers in the Marketplace, linked Iowa farmers with eight groups of women farmers in the Kamuli District in Uganda.
Bridging the Gap was a yearlong project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Iowa State University's Value Added Agriculture program partnered with VEDCO and ISU's Center for Sustainable Livelihoods (CSRL) in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, to provide farmer production and marketing expertise to Ugandan farmers. CSRL and VEDCO have been providing outreach and education in the district since 2004. As a result, many of the area Ugandan families have achieved food security and are now poised to increase crop diversity, as well as grain yields and improve grain quality for sale to commercial markets.
More than 60 Iowa women farmers applied for the volunteer experience in Africa for the 10 volunteer positions to Africa. Sheila Hebenstreit, of Greene County, traveled to Uganda twice in 2011, once before the project began and once as a volunteer.
"The biggest difference I saw from my first trip was the increase in grain quality through the project, through the use of tarps for spreading out the grain and allowing it to dry and the bicycle-powered maize (corn) shellers. Previously, maize grain had been spread on the bare ground to dry and was threshed off the cob by beating it with a stick," she explained. "This time, after women farmers used the improved drying technique and mechanized sheller, we measured the maize crop and had it tested professionally."
In its first year, the project focused on improving maize grain quality and helping to organize collaborative or group marketing of the grain. In addition, soybeans were introduced for food and as a cash crop. The Iowans also helped train the Ugandan farmers to keep written farm business records.
"Through this project five of the eight women's farmer groups began joint marketing, which was our main objective" said ISU Extension Value Added Ag Specialist Margaret Smith, co-director of the Bridging the Gap program. "Through improved quality of maize (corn) from the bicycle-powered maize shellers and tarpaulins the volunteers provided the women, they also received higher prices for the maize. Several groups also jointly marketed some of their soybeans, which was an unexpected, but well received development in the project. These women are taking the concepts and business management tools that we provided and utilizing them."
Improved post-harvest management made positive changes in grain quality. Maize storage losses were reduced from 42 percent to 22 percent of the crop and the quality of maize sold that was classified as "good" from the groups increased from 19 percent to 82 percent. The farmers expressed great satisfaction with the new farm record books to track their project crops.
"The record books were useful to the farmers," said Sabi Jane, a Ugandan farmer and Tibikomo group leader. "They encourage the women in my group to work harder and challenge them to plant and earn more."
The groups of volunteers noted that soybean grows well in the Kamuli District, but there are still many challenges with harvesting, threshing and preparing the soybeans for family meals.
Some other challenges the program identified for these farmers include availability of tools and equipment, transportation and quality control for grain. Poor grain quality and the lack of adoption of regional grain standards put small-scale farmers at a disadvantage. Much of the maize is shelled by using a stick to beat the kernels off the ear, resulting in a high percentage of damaged and cracked kernels that are subject to insect and rodent damage. Grain buyers come around to farms to purchase grain that is available for sale, but do not use inspected scales and there are no grain standards in place in the countryside. When grain does reach mills for processing, the clean-out losses of damaged and broken kernels can be as high as 40 percent of the original volume.
"In Iowa, we have an amazing system in place to grow and market our crops. Our Iowa farmers' experiences allow them to identify the gaps in the Ugandan marketing system and help identify steps for improving local farmers' maize grain quality and marketing," said Linda Naeve ISU Extension Value Added agriculture specialist and co-director of the project. "Our ultimate goal is to improve profitability for these Ugandan women and bring more money to their households."
The program has been extended into 2012. This year, the Iowa women volunteers will continue to work on the original program objectives, specifically on joint marketing and development of business management skills. In addition, the volunteers will help train Ugandan farmers to do on-farm seed germination tests to help those farmers evaluate seed quality before planting. Originally, 80 Ugandan farmers were involved in the project; this year, more than 180 farmers will work with the Iowa volunteers. Volunteers will continue to aid the Ugandan farmers with information, and provide more supplies to improve maize and soybean grain quality.
"We didn't fully meet our objectives in the first year, and now we have a chance to see further improvements for each farmer group," Smith said.

After completing her Canisius career this fall, forward Brianna Smith has been selected to the practice squad for the Western New York Flash of the National Women's Soccer League.
"This is a huge opportunity for me to be able to train with these girls," Smith said. "It's amazing that I'm able to play alongside these outstanding players like Abby Wambach and Carli Lloyd and to be able to do it locally is that much more of an honor."
Smith, who finished her career second on the all-time goal scoring list at Canisius, will train with the club, with the potential to see time on the team's roster as players leave for international play or in case of injury. To make the team's training roster, Smith made it through three rounds of cuts.
"I'm very excited for Bri to get this opportunity to train and play at the professional level," said Canisius head coach Jim Wendling. "I think she's been one of the best forwards we've had in my time here and she's got the talent to play at the highest level and I hope for great success. It's great for her and it's great for our program."
The Flash are the defending regular season champions of the NWSL and open their season on April 13 at the Washington Spirit.

Unable to reach agreement on a better alternative, elected officials allowed the sequester's arbitrary spending cuts to begin taking effect late last week. But even if these cuts remain in effect, the federal budget will still be on an unsustainable long-term path.
In a blog post, Concord Coalition Executive Director Robert L. Bixby urged elected officials to use the regular budget process to move forward toward the more comprehensive fiscal reforms that are needed.
Sequestration was not good policy, Bixby wrote, but had become a matter of political accountability: "A threat, such as sequestration, can only be effective if everyone understands that the consequences are real. The cuts may be ill-timed and arbitrary but they are what the President, the House and the Senate agreed would happen if they and their super committee kicked the can down the road."
Obama met with congressional leaders Friday but officials in both parties continued to reiterate their basic differences over the budget. While most Democrats support replacing the cuts with a combination of revenue increases and spending cuts, most Republicans remain opposed to any additional revenue increases.
Bixby says sequestration "is simply one small part of a larger, ongoing story. It can be and should be replaced, but not until Republicans and Democrats can agree on something better. The best opportunity to do that comes not with the threat of a government shutdown when funding runs out on March 27, or when the debt limit is again reached this summer, but through the regular budget process which will kick off later this month with the President's budget proposal, and House and Senate action on budget resolutions."
This week the House is expected to consider legislation to fund the government for the remainder of the fiscal year and prevent a government shutdown. Included in the legislation are regular Defense and Military Construction/ Veterans Affairs appropriations bills and a continuing resolution to fund most other federal agencies at current levels.
Funding provided in the bill would remain subject to sequestration, though it provides some flexibility for agencies to allocate cuts to defense and veterans programs. Including the effects of sequestration, CBO estimates that the bill will limit FY 2013 discretionary spending to $984 billion. The current continuing resolution is scheduled to expire on March 27.

Hi Folks
I am considering an 140 hr online course from TEFL Cambridge.
I understand online courses aren't the best, as they don't give you the practical side of things. However, I current teach part-time short courses. (Film Studies and Screenwriting to young people and adults.)
Would my teaching experience plus an online certificate be sufficient in gaining employment?
Or do I hold tight and be utterly miserable for another year and save my pennies for a CELTA course?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Angie, your food will forever be remembered as some the best breakfasts we've ever had. Tim and Angie, you've created something so special with this home and it is bittersweet to leave. We are happy for this time away from our normal lives and opportunity to celebrate M's birthday in such a lavish way…we wish it didn't have to end. However, once we return home, we can begin to tell everyone about your "home away from home". Thank you – we can't wait to do this again!

I saw the Altair thread, which reminded me of this.
I don' t think I' d posted this here.
It's not as big a project as Fett or even Link.
But it was fun doing it. It's not 100% finished yet, but it's just some details that need to be done (rings in the shoulder, non-functional clips on the back of the vest, extra pouch on the belt, cigarette and zippo holder)
I hope you like it!!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Nikki has EPI, IBD & food allergies
For treats we use the "Potato Pleasers" (they are expensive but she tolerates them well): https://serenegy.com/
She is also ok with her elk antlers (split). Other than that she gets her banana in the evening and a little bit of apple every now and then and that's it.
Chew for IBD dogs
For those of us with gs with IBD, finding/making treats and chew can be a huge issue. Our internal med specialist said to try greenies, but it seems like the protein or formulation is not giving good results, aka diarrhea. So I frowned, it's so difficult, I want to give her snacks other than her prescription diet
I shopped around and found Whimzees at an independent feed store. We tried them, they come in three colors and flavors, but all vegetarian and gluten free. Which helps in the case of having an IBD gs. Her favorite in the bag seems to be the pale cream colored one, followed by the green, and then the orange. Plus the pale one seems to agree with her stomach more. She hasn't had diarrhea when chewing on the pale one.
I just wanted to share my find with everyone especially if your babies have IBD too. FYI, she gets the chews ~twice a month, depending on her condition. I believe Petco has started to carry them in their stock.

Belmont students consider dropping 'offensive' mascot
BELMONT — The Belmont High School student council has asked the public — particularly alumni of the school — to attend its meeting Wednesday to discuss whether the school should no longer have the Red Raiders as the mascot for athletic teams.
A national movement called American Indian Sports Team Mascots has a chapter, the New England Anti-Mascot coalition, which lists 16 Granite State schools, including Belmont High, with American Indian-related names.
"The ridicule, mockery and utter racism Native Americans are subject to because of the use of Indian mascots are intolerable," the organization states.
School officials say the students are running the 7 p.m. meeting in the school cafeteria.
Students and teachers at Belmont High in the school's hallways on Monday said some students want to drop the word "red" from Red Raiders.
"As long as we get rid of the Indian head (on the school teams' logo)," one female student said.
Superintendent Maria Dreyer said the issue has been brought up twice before. About 12 years ago, the school debated changing the name, but settled instead on changing the logo, replacing a Native American face with "more of a contemporary face, a figure of a face."
Dreyer said the idea of changing it further came from several student council members.
"It should be a very interesting discussion; these are very thoughtful and active students," Dreyer said.
Dreyer said Belmont High School students, alumni, and teachers are not being purposely disrespectful to Native Americans.
"Of course we want to be respectful to our ancestors, and the teams love and are very respectful of the mascot," she said. "I think we were being respectful when we changed the face on the logo."
Brett Sottaks, a member of the Belmont High Class of 1988 and the coach of the school's baseball team from 1999-2010, said the founders of the school named the mascot with complete respect to local American Indians.
"This is an area with names like Winnipesaukee and Winnisquam; they were obviously being respectful," Sottaks said. "When I think of a Red Raider, I think of a fierce warrior. A Red Raider is something you want to be."
Sottaks said he understands that some may be offended by the mascot.
"I'm proud to be a Red Raider," he said. "I am completely against a name change."
Marc Forgione Sr. is a board member of Friends of Belmont Football, an organization devoted to finding a place for student athletes attending Belmont High School to play football. He agrees with Sottaks.
Forgione, who is from Laconia, saw Laconia High School debate the mascot name "Sachem" about 10 years ago, but the school decided to keep the name.
"Being from Laconia, my opinion is that it's ridiculous to be offended by something that's meant to honor the local heritage, whether it's a 'Red Raider' or a 'Sachem.' We should be focusing on bigger issues, like getting a football team in Belmont," he said.


text: I've been considering getting this done but I still have some questions. I have had experience with GIAC and APR on my past 1.8T cars, but there doesn't seem to be much info on the interwebs about the 3.6l (understandably). Has anyone here had this done to their car, and what are your impressions? Any opinions as to the best tuner? Thanks!

Bought the bra for my brand new CX5. Looks great once you have it on and I know it saves me a great deal of time from scrubbing the bugs off the fiberglass front end. I just hope it last. I put in on when it was 90 plus degrees outside. I still had difficult time stretching it out to get the clips on the bottom splash guard. Haven't taken it off yet, but I am hoping it is quicker than putting it on.

• Overall, Canisius ranks 16th as a team with a .541 faceoff percentage, while Syracuse is 55th (of 63 teams) with a .414 faceoff percentage.
• Freshman Vince Gravino has made quite the impact in a short amount of time for Canisius.
• Just seven games into his career, Gravino is tied for the team lead with 22 points and ranks first with 15 goals to go along with seven assists.
• A two-time MAAC Rookie of the Week, Gravino ranks third nationally among rookies with 3.14 points per game and fifth with 2.14 goals per game.
• Gravino had his best game of the year in the Griffs' win against VMI, recording seven points (4g, 3a). The seven points are the most by a Griff freshman since Adam Jones also had seven points in 2008.

Using the Discontinuous Galerkin Method to Model Linear Ultrasound
Mads Herring Jensen January 26, 2017
Modeling acoustically large problems requires a memory-efficient approach like the discontinuous Galerkin method. To make solving these types of problems easier, we've added a new physics interface based on this method to the Acoustics Module: the Convected Wave Equation, Time Explicit interface. It can include a stationary background flow and is suited for modeling linear ultrasound applications. Today, we will explore how to use this interface with the example of an ultrasound flow meter.Read More

COMSOL Multiphysics version 5.2 introduced a number of new features and functionality, including an acoustics-specific plot type called the Octave Band plot. This plot type provides you with an easy and flexible way to represent any frequency response, transfer function, sensitivity curve, transmission loss, or insertion loss — all of which are essential plots in many acoustics applications. Let's learn a bit more about the Octave Band plot, while highlighting its various options and settings.Read More

This past July, I had the pleasure of attending the 22nd International Congress on Sound and Vibration. In addition to running the COMSOL vendor booth with my Italian colleague Gabriele, I was also a presenter at the event. My presentation was based on a paper I wrote with Henrik Bruus and Jonas Karlsen that focuses on how to determine acoustic radiation forces including thermoviscous effects. Let's explore acoustophoretic effects in greater detail and the research findings highlighted in my presentation.Read More

When inside a room — a conference room, concert hall, or even a car — everyone has an opinion of when the "acoustics" are good or bad. In room acoustics, we want to study this notion of sound quality in a quantitative way. In short, room acoustics is concerned with assessing the acoustics of enclosed spaces. The Acoustics Module of COMSOL Multiphysics has several tools to simulate the acoustics of rooms and other confined spaces. I will present those here.Read More

When modeling acoustics phenomena, particularly of devices with small geometric dimensions, there are many complex factors to consider. The Thermoviscous Acoustics interface offers a simple and accurate way to set up and solve your acoustics model for factors such as acoustic pressure, velocity, and temperature variation. Here, we will demonstrate how to model your thermoviscous acoustics problems in COMSOL Multiphysics and provide some tips and resources for doing so.Read More

When sound propagates in structures and geometries with small dimensions, the sound waves become attenuated because of thermal and viscous losses. More specifically, the losses occur in the acoustic thermal and viscous boundary layers near the walls. This known phenomenon needs to be considered to evaluate how these losses affect thermoviscous acoustics systems in order to build accurate models and match experimental measurements.Read More

Mufflers are often located in exhaust systems or on heat, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, where their key functionality is to dampen the noise that is emitted from the system. A correct description of the acoustic damping (absorption and attenuation) processes in the muffler is important when designing and modeling these systems.Read More

The use of acoustic waves to manipulate suspensions of particles, such as cells, has inspired the work of many researchers, paving the way for the field of ultrasound acoustofluidics. The manipulation is achieved in many ways, including using bulk acoustic waves (BAW) and surface acoustic waves (SAW), as well as acoustic radiation forces and acoustic streaming-induced drag. The latter two combine to produce the acoustophoretic motion of the suspended particles; i.e., movement by means of sound, and the methods provide […]Read More

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL -- Namco America has begun shipping its new Triple Turn and Ball Spectacular ticket redemption games. The company reports that the new pieces received a warm reception when they were introduced earlier this year.
Triple Turn involves launching a ball into one of several tubes that direct it onto one of three rotating platforms; the lowest awards the greatest ticket value. Ball Spectacular, which measures almost nine feet tall, presents a pachinko-derived challenge as the player strives to time the release of balls onto a peg-filled playfield; good timing allows a ball to be directed through several gates that increase the ticket payoff.
Slated to debut at the 2013 International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Expo in Orlando, FL, in November are a redemption game and an aviation simulator.
New Pac-Man Chomp Mania is a gift-card-dispensing variant of Pac-Man Ticket Mania, the popular video-ticket redemption implementation of Namco's classic Pac-Man concept developed in cooperation with Raw Thrills. Mach Storm is a kinetic jet fighter simulator.
Also slated for display at the IAAPA Attractions Expo is a variety of new prize merchandise from Namco, including Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventure plush, 5" Pac-Man Ghost bluetooth wireless speakers, Pac-Man PVC balls and licensed Gloomy Bear plush.
Other new items may be unveiled at the November show, as circumstances may permit.

Dr. Goodword wrote:• discombobulate •
Pronunciation: dis-kêm-bah-byê-leyt • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Verb, transitive
Meaning: (Humorous slang) To confuse, befuddle, disconcert or disorient; to throw into mental disarray.
Notes: Current dictionaries are still reluctant to discuss the family of this common if funny word. The action noun is discombobulation, which suffices to demonstrate that the word has been fully Latinized and absorbed into English. This means that other derivations like discombobulator, discombobulative, discombobulable and the like are fully grammatical—even though they may rankle your spellchecker.
In Play: A discombobulative situation would be one in which you wish to indicate befuddlement and get a laugh, too: "Well, I'm a little discombobulated right now and can't think of an alternative verb for discombobulate." It is not a word you would use in formal English but use it elsewhere with relish: "When visiting America, Cedric often becomes discombobulated and drives in the left lane."
Word History: Today's word probably dropped from someone's lips when they were searching futilely for a word like discompose, which they mixed it up with, maybe, cobble, then added the Latin suffix -ate in an attempt to cover their tracks. The result is so amusing, however, that it survived and will continue to be repeated so long as it gets laughs. This word first appeared in print in the mid 1930s in the New York Sun, making it clear that it is another jab at pretentious speech from the US.

Re: Discombobulate
I have been known to explain that I have become a bit discombobulated, then ask for a minute or two to recombobulate myself (or get recombobulated).
And if anyone finds their spellchecker getting rankled because of discombobulate, I'm sure you'll be able to iron things out.

Re: Discombobulate
We use it so often that it has developed connotations of its own. We all find ourselves discombobulated now and then, and no other word seems to fit.
Re: Discombobulate
Well, if usage helps make a neologism a real, accepted word, recombobulate is on its way:
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

down for lifeWhat do you think about this one guys and gals? Another great star and moon entry. I shouldve made this harder like...forhead tattoos only or something. Matt from Ridgecrest, CA was down for life. Thanks Matt. I'm running out of product to give away. We still have another Foundation contest to do that doesn't involve tattoos. Ok so this friday is the last day to contribute tattoos for free gear. Better get inked up fast.

With the MLL expanding to Charlotte, N.C., and Columbus, Ohio, two full rosters were open to be freshly stocked with talent. Expansion provides an opportunity for players who were turned away in years past, rookies trying to scrape out a spot and veterans looking to rejoin the MLL ranks.
A few key names have caught our attention in the shuffle, some are established players finding new homes through the Expansion Draft, some are popular players who will jump into the MLL fray this summer.
The former Duke and Bryant star played with the Long Island Lizards in 2009 and '10, scoring 40 points in 18 games while battling a hand injury. Greer played on the LXM Pro Tour last summer and also played in 18 MSL games while helping the Brampton Exelciors to a Mann Cup last summer. Plus, he plays NLL for the Edmonton Rush after being traded from the Minnesota Swarm, who drafted him, mid-way through last season.
Greer said Wednesday that, because of his travel for boxla in the summer, he'll only play MLL if it means he doesn't have to travel to home games. Having moved to Boston within the last two months, that essentially means the Cannons and Nationals are his two options (Hamilton because he'd be traveling to Ontario for Brampton games), but the Lizards retain Greer's rights after he went unselected in last week's Expansion Draft.
Long Island is in flux offensively after trading Matt Danowski and Stephen Berger to North Carolina, so trading Greer could potentially yield needed offensive depth, or the Lizards could hope he suits up now that there's more room for him to star.
—Terry Foy, Updated 12/16 1 p.m.
Veteran longpole Brett Hughes comes back to the MLL after leaving following the 2009 season. During his tenure in the league he had stints with the now defunct New Jersey Pride and Los Angeles Riptide, and with the Denver Outlaws. When contacted, Hughes was pumped for a chance to play ball in Columbus.
"I intend on coming back to Ohio and winning a championship my man!," he enthusiastically texted. "I'm from Columbus, Ohio. … So the thought of being on our first pro outdoor lacrosse team was something I could not pass up."
The defending champs may lose a key piece of their defensive core depending on Kyle Sweeney's status come April.
"I've been working out with Buffalo the last couple weekends and will probably play with them this winter," Sweeney emailed, referring to his NLL status with the Bandits.
As for the MLL, he will see how the winter goes and weigh his decision to play amongst family-related concerns (he was recently married this year), and other commitments, a common conundrum for players in this league.
"I have told the coaches, GM and owner that I am not 100% playing," Sweeney said. "I don't want to lead them on at all."
Continuing to mine local talent in the rich lacrosse community of Upstate New York., the Rattlers attempted to aquire Mike and Kevin Leveille. While Kevin seems ready to roll for the summer (after sitting out the 2011 MLL season), Mike's status is less certain.
As our Casey Vock, resident Upstate Insider, explains it, Mike handles several accounts for the financial firm KPMG in New York City, and the summer tends to be a busy time, particularly late as companies close their books for the impending end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30. Because of this, it is likely that work conflicts will prevent Mike from joining his brother in Rochester this year.
Mike could not be reach as of yet to elaborate on his status.
Dan Hardy, who lives near Rochester, expressed enthusiasm to be a member of Rattlers and is "looking forward to the season."
While not everyone they hoped for will be crossing the border this summer, the Nats landed their biggest fish who will be a key piece to their 2012 success.
Despite playing for the NLL Buffalo Bandits this winter, Brett Bucktooth will not be joining Hamilton this season.
"I've been coaching my son's team the past three years, and I'm going to play more local box lacrosse," Bucktooth told Vock. The Iroquois star mentioned wanting more family time generally.
On the sunnier side though, after joining the team late in their run to the championship game, Casey Powell will be back, hopefully for the duration of the season. He has told IL that he is unlikely to play professional indoor lacrosse this winter.
"In for 2012," Powell told Vock. "I'm just getting warmed up."
In a slightly surprising trade, the Rattlers sent Jordan McBride west to Denver. The Canadian finisher should add some punch to a now depleted Outlaw attack, as McBride confirmed via a Twitter direct message that he will be part of the summer season.
"Yes, I will indeed be playing in the 2012 MLL season," McBride responded to my original message. "[I'm] excited to be part of the Outlaws!"
Stay tuned for more updates on some of the intriguing names that have surfaced and resurfaced in the MLL Expansion and Supplemental Drafts, as each team continues to solidify its roster for the 2012 season that starts in late April.

Kendall Marshall, Phoenix Suns: Marshall is continuing to see more playing time, and his numbers are increasing with it. In his last two games, the rookie averaged six points and 2.5 assists.
Jerry Stackhouse, Brooklyn Nets: Suffering from a stiff neck, Stackhouse has not played since Jan. 26. His status remains day-to-day.
Rasheed Wallace, New York Knicks: Wallace is still nursing a stress reaction and chronic condition in his left foot. The forward/center has not played since Dec. 13.
Marvin Williams, Utah Jazz: Williams put together 14 points and 10 rebounds over his last three games. The Jazz trumped the Bucks but were defeated by the Bulls and Sacramento Kings.
Brandan Wright, Dallas Mavericks: Wright saw limited minutes last week. In 8 minutes against the Warriors, he managed two points and one rebound.
Tyler Zeller, Cleveland Cavaliers: Zeller averaged 7.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists in the Cavaliers' last three games.

Security Deposits - Fact Sheet

Security Deposits: Fact Sheet
What is a security deposit?
A security deposit is money paid in advance by the tenant to the landlord tocover potential property damage. Rent, application fees, rent paid in advance, and non-refundable fees are not considered security deposits. Unless you live in public or subsidized housing, there is no limit on the amount that can be charged as a security deposit.
Can I subtract the deposit from my last month's rent?
No. Security deposits are separate from rentpayments, and different laws apply. Always pay your rent. Not paying any part of the last month's rent can make you liable to the landlord for three times the amount of rent you don't pay. If you owe rent and there is no dispute over the amount you owe, the landlord can keep the security deposit for the amount you owe. If you move out before your lease is up, your landlord may subtract a reletting fee from your security deposit. There is no limit on the amount of the reletting fee, but if it is not reasonable it might be illegal.
When can my landlord withhold my security deposit for damages?
The deposit can only be used torepair substantial damage to the property unless there are extra charges stated in the lease. Your landlord cannot withhold for damage caused by previous tenants, or for normal wear and tear to the property.
- Normal wear and tear – A worn carpet, peeling paint, or dusty fixtures are examples.
- "Substantial" damage - Damage due to accident, carelessness, or abuse of the property. A brokenwindow, hole in the wall, or a large carpet stain are examples. You are responsible even if the damage was caused by a guest.
- Charges in the lease – Your lease may have special charges that can be taken out of the securitydeposit. For example, if your lease says that you can't paint the walls, but you do, some of your deposit can be withheld as a re-painting fee.
How can I get a refund of my security deposit?
Protect your rights, and follow the terms of your lease.
What if I've moved and my landlord still won't refund my deposit?
Your landlord has30 daysfromthe date you move (or 30 days from the date you give written notice of your forwarding address) to refund your security deposit. If the landlord withholds for repairs, you are entitled to a written, itemized list of the damage and cost of repairs and balance of your deposit after the repairs are subtracted. If you disagree with the deductions or your deposit is not refunded, you can sue in small claims court to recover the entire amount. Contact the Justice of the Peace court in the precinct where the property is located for instructions and forms. Find more help from the Texas Tenant Advisor, www.texastenant.org.

Wash. Post article on Bush stem cell plan ignored scientists' support for bill Bush vetoed
In a June 20 article [1], The Washington Post reported that President Bush, upon vetoing a bill [2] to expand federal funding for embryonic stem cell research, "plans to issue an executive order [3] today to encourage government agencies to support research that offers the promise of creating medically useful stem cells without destroying human embryos." But the article did not report -- as the Post itself did [4] on June 7 -- that some of the scientists involved in one of the research methods Bush is touting [3] as an alternative to embryonic stem cell research have themselves called for passage of the bill Bush just vetoed, which, as the Post reported on June 7, "would give federally funded researchers access to embryos slated for destruction at fertility clinics."
The June 20 Post article reported that Bush planned to veto an embryonic stem cell funding bill and, at the same time, issue the executive order. Among the research breakthroughs that the administration is touting, as the Post noted, is one in which scientists used the skin cells of mice to develop cells with regenerative properties similar to that of a mouse's embryonic stem cell:
President Bush, under increasing pressure to relax his restrictions on embryonic stem cell research, plans to issue an executive order today to encourage government agencies to support research that offers the promise of creating medically useful stem cells without destroying human embryos, according to senior administration officials.
Recent advances have increased optimism that stem cells with potential for treating diseases or even developing into human organs for transplants can be developed from skin cells, amniotic fluid or even cells salvaged from dead embryos.
There is some evidence that cells with the capacity to divide and grow into many different tissues exist in the placenta, umbilical cord blood and bone marrow. Winnowing them from other cells and successfully pushing them down a path toward medically useful purposes, however, has been difficult.
Part of the problem is that some of these "adult" stem cells are not as primitive and potent as those extracted from an embryo when it is at the stage of a barely visible ball of cells.
This month, three research teams announced that they were able to coax skin cells from mice to revert into more primitive and potent cells -- the equivalent of going back in time. This raises the possibility that everyone may possess the raw material to make stem cells with the same therapeutic potential as ones from embryos.
Yet the article did not note that scientists involved in the mouse skin cell studies have urged the passing of the bill Bush vetoed. In its June 7 article on the scientists' findings, the Post reported that, despite the breakthrough, the scientists supported federal funding for embryonic stem cell research:
The findings have generated tumult on Capitol Hill, where the House is set to vote today on a bill that would loosen President Bush's 2001 restrictions on the use of human embryos in stem cell research.
Acutely aware that their new work could undermine that key political goal, the scientists cautioned that their success with mouse cells does not guarantee quick success with human cells. They called for Congress to pass the bill, which would give federally funded researchers access to embryos slated for destruction at fertility clinics.
Indeed, as Media Matters for America has noted [5], one of the study's lead scientists, Rudolf Jaenisch, offered support for embryonic stem cell research a June 6 press release [6] despite his group's findings:
"[A]ll these results are preliminary and proof of principle. It will be awhile before we know what can and can't be done in humans. Human embryonic stem cells remain the gold standard for pluripotent cells, and it is a necessity to continue studying embryonic stem cells throughout traditional means."

We made the commitment to try for 100 pound fish. So Ron Hyde and I spent two days hunting big tarpon in the Everglades from his Seminole Flats Skiff.
The web of channels weaving through the vast mangrove islands is God's Country, beautiful and unrelenting.
Hyde has been catching big tarpon in this area since the 1950s. I have not–The biggest tarpon I have hooked on a fly weighed 60 pounds. These are different animals. Tarpon take 15 years to grow beyond the century mark and by that time, says Hyde, "they're big intelligent fish that can eat whenever they want, and they've seen just about everything." The big female tarpon can live into their 50s.
I've caught big tarpon by other means, but getting one to eat a fly has proven difficult. (Setting a hook in their bony mouths is another story. "Like trying to hook a bathtub," says Hyde.)
We found them and they were not traveling in unison but spread apart, rolling and free jumping in random unpredictable patterns. We'd watch for their silvery backs to break the surface and for their tails. Then I'd load the 12-weight and place a leading cast to where we thought they were headed.
The game grew maddening as they started popping up here and there as with a sporadic albie bust.
""Tarpon fishing is different every day," said Hyde. "Today they're like this and tomorrow you can do everything wrong and catch one despite yourself."
Two days, two follows. I'm convinced that tarpon when they grow big become the devil, and I'm still looking to sin.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by mikhail1973, Jan 30, 2013.
Marc Stein on Twitter:
More here: Rudy Gay trade to Raptors agreed upon, according to report - SBNation.com
Joe will never trade Tayshaun. And he has said he won't trade Magette because he wants the cap space.
That said, I love Jose Calderon. He's short, so that will mean Lee hates him, but he can ball.
New Twitter rumor update: Stuckey and Prince for Calderon
Actually, Calderon's contract expires at the end of the season, so trading Maggs to get him would be a wash...
More tweets coming in: Adrian Wojnarowski@WojYahooNBA
This is becoming more and more fun: Marc SteinVerified@ESPNSteinLine1m
Mikhail, you are my hero.
You know, roscoe, it's funny. I haven't been around much lately, and all of a sudden come across all these happenings
David Aldridge@daldridgetnt
Well, I am so happy to see you and The Low around after awhile. Slippy logged in today. We have a German member who hasn't posted much in chat last night, and we picked up a smart poster from France this month. I like to see you guys, we've never met, but I feel like you're all my friends, and when you guys are enthusiastic about the Pistons, I get pumped up too.
Tay + 2nd round pick for Calderon and his expiring contract? That would be a grandmaster move by Joe if he can get that done and preserve the Maggette expiring. Tay will actually help the Grizz too. We could then move Stuckey to the starting lineup at SF and rock the small ball for a while.
I am actually about to explode Have some likes everyone
holy crap, my prayers have been answered...now as long as Dumars doesnt play lucy and yank the football away I will be a happy poster on the forums
Marc Stein@ESPNSteinLine
Looks like it is done Daye, Prince + 2nd rounders
Daye is involved or is it a 2nd round pick? Chalk one up for the showcasing strategy! Hopefully this leads to a secondary trade of Stuckey because now we have Calderon, Knight, Stuckey, Bynum. They have all played significant minutes at PG in their careers. At SF, we have Singler, Maggette, Jerebko, Middleton... (assuming Daye is gone). Realistically, Singler will probably be slid over and Jerebko will probably have to back him up. Calderon/ Bynum Knight/ Stuckey- English Singler/ Jerebko-Villanueva Monroe/ Maxiell Drummond/ TRG It is highly likely that this will give Frank and excuse to move Drummond to the starting lineup (I'm surmising). TRG will probably get spot minutes after he does and the rotation shortened a bit. Looking forward to the Calderon to Dre connection.

Rites and Ceremonies
Written by: J. Gordon Melton
Rites and ceremonies were secondary considerations for Scientology, which developed liturgies as needed. Meanwhile, holidays have been designated to commemorate important dates in the church's evolution.
Rituals and worship have not been integral to Scientology, but as the church evolved through its early years, it saw a need (as have other first-generation religions) to begin to mark important events in the life in a manner appropriate to Scientology's understanding of reality. In 1970, the Church issued an initial volume, The Background and Ceremonies of the Church of Scientology of California, World Wide. A mere sixty-six pages, it offered guidance for conducting services for weddings, the naming of a child, and funerals. There were also some suggestions for the holding of a celebration of a human rights day. Also, by this time, the church was initiating Sunday gatherings, analogous to Sunday worship in the dominant religions in the lands into which Scientology had expanded, in its local churches. The 1970s text covered Sunday services and offering some limited guidance in only a few pages.
Over the next quarter of a century, as the church continued to expand, additional thought was given to the role of religious gatherings in the context of Scientology, and in 1999 the church issued a massive new edition of its service book under the title, The Background, Ministry, Ceremonies and Sermons of the Scientology Religion. To the basic naming, wedding, and funeral services, a service for the ordination of ministers was added, while the great majority of the book was given to the Sunday Services, which in the new century have taken on a heightened importance, though not nearly to the degree of some more familiar religions such as Christianity. In Scientology, there is no virtue assigned to attendance at Sunday services. They are held for those who find them meaningful, which remain a small percentage of the faithful.
Sunday services have, since 1999, assumed a significantly more formal nature, consisting of a reading of the Creed of the Church of Scientology, a sermon (a reading from the words of L. Ron Hubbard), a simple Scientology exercise (process), and a concluding prayer, "The Prayer for Total Freedom," addressed to the "author of the universe." The various elements of the service leave almost no room for extemporizing, the ceremony book containing the full text of each component that is read by the officiating minister. Music at the beginning and end of the service is optional.
The several special services -- the naming of a child, weddings, and funerals -- are all conducted in such a way as to acknowledge the understanding that each person is a free spirit (thetan) who comes into a body, acts in that body, and eventually leaves it behind for another body.

The potential of Aaron Ramsey and Jack Wilshere gave Arsène Wenger the confidence to let Samir Nasri leave Arsenal.
The France international's switch to Manchester City was back-page news during the summer and, eventually, Nasri was allowed to depart after spending three years at Emirates Stadium.
Since he went Ramsey, new signing Mikel Arteta and Alex Song have been mainstays in the Arsenal midfield while another new recruit, Gervinho, has added flair further forward. Wilshere himself has yet to feature this season but his huge potential was a factor in Wenger's summer decision.
"You want to keep your young players but when we didn't reach an agreement over a new contract I prepared myself to face it [the prospect of Nasri leaving]," Wenger told Arsenal Player.
"Overall I knew that Ramsey didn't play much last year and that he would be in contention if he had a chance not to be injured. In pre-season I felt that Wilshere and Ramsey worked very well together.
"What we did not expect of course was to lose Wilshere on top on that. We had to admit then that we were a little bit exposed quality and number-wise [so we signed more players]."
Wenger repeated his wish that Arsenal fans show respect for Nasri on Tuesday, a player he believes improved significantly during his time in north London.
"I hope Samir gets a good reception," said Wenger. "I don't know if he will play but personally I want every player who has played for us to be respected when they come back.
"Samir improved tremendously while he was with us. He has developed fantastically well from a non-scoring player to a guy who could make a decision. Of course he was an important player here and I'm sure he will be for Man City as well."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Posted by Jennifer Belissent on March 1, 2011
In my last blog, I discussed the 3-1-1 initiative, which was in many cases the instigator for creating citizen services portals and a channel not only for delivering services but also for registering requests and complaints as feedback into the system. However, the interaction doesn't stop there. Not only are cities soliciting feedback on citizen services, cities and other public agencies are now also providing data and APIs to enable citizen-developers to create applications themselves – bringing even the creation of citizen services directly to the citizens themselves.
I first wrote about this trend last year in "Open Cities, Smart Cities: Data Drives Smart City Initiatives." Such open data initiatives have exploded in recent years – with different terms for the same thing (naturally): open government data (OGD) in the US and public sector information (PSI) in Europe. Yet, with common standards: open data should be complete, primary, timely, accessible, machine-readable, non-discriminatory, non-proprietary in format, and license-free.
"Public" data is not just from the government, nor for the government
