World Cup final offers huge odds on high scoring Argentina vs Germany match
If you think Germany can repeat its seven-goal outburst in the World Cup Final, there is a huge payout for believers in a rout against Argentina.
At one online sportsbook, it's a +3400 wager and even if they win by just four goals, that is a +1800 payout.
Of course, the semifinal blowout of Brazil (7-1) was a historic rout that may never be seen again. But unlike that game, where you couldn't even bet on a 7-1 final because it was too preposterous, this time the books are offering the odds.
Topbet.eu had the Germans as early -175 favorites to win the game, with the Argentines as +145 underdogs. Of note, the World Cup has been hosted in South America four times and a 'home' team has won every time.
The three-way line (which includes a draw a the end of regulation time, 90 minutes) had the Germans at +140 with the Argentines at +250 and the draw line at +225, according to the World Cup finals odds pages.
Argentina may get creative midfielder Angel di Maria back for this game. He was injured in the quarter-final match and did not play as the Argentines defeated Holland in the semi final.
Without him, the attack was stunted and the Dutch focused plenty if marking attention on Lionel Messi the entire match.
Germany, however, had no stunting of their offense as they erupted for five goals in 19 minutes of the first half to blast Brazil. No team had ever scored so much in a World Cup match and Brazil's previous worst loss was 3-0.
This is a rematch of the 1990 World Cup where the Germans won 1-0 on a late penalty shot.
Much has changed in the world since that time. West Germany reunified with the East later in 1990 and quarterfinalists Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia are no longer countries, having broken apart since then.
Watch the latest World Cup odds and the current Golden Boot betting numbers (where Thomas Muller and Messi still have a shot at catching goals leader James Rodriguez of Colombia.

These are great! I used to use krill, so I'm really happy I can get phosoholipid-bound omega 3's (better absorbed) from a sustainable source instead.

Derived from fish meal and may contain ethoxyquin.
Posted by Leione on Apr 29, 2014 | Verified Purchase
Even though this product doesn't contain titanium dioxide, magnesium stearate, animal derived stearic acid, ethyl cellulose, sodium alginate, ammonium hydroxide, or any other dangerous and harmful ingredients so common in similar products, it's derived from fish meal which may contain ethoxyquin. Fish meal is made from fish and the bones and offal from processed fish and can spontaneously combust. To prevent this from happening, ethoxyquin is often added to fish meal. Ethoxyquin is a known toxicant, allergen and possible carcinogen. Definitely not a product you would recommend.

This is a decent product as long as iherb is discounting it. It does have Astaxanthan which is a very powerful antioxidant. It is used in many eye formulas and is believed to be able to cross the blood brain barrier therefore providing good free radical clean up in the brain. Krill oil will also have some Astaxanthan in it as well. I prefer to use the Carlson's fish oil products as reviewed on my home page because you get more DHA and Carlson's goes to great lengths to make sure the oils are fresh and contaminant free. Carlson's does not have astaxanthan but I prefer to get the best overall fish oil for the omega 3 content and get my anti-oxidants elsewhere. Keep your fish oils refrigerated or in a cool location to prevent them from going rancid.

Good Omega 3 with Astaxanthin

I bought this from Jarrow Formulas sale, and it was priced $3.70. This is a pretty good Omega 3 product Astaxanthin. But $13.95 regular price is just too much for 30 softgels.

Jarrow Formulas, PhosphOmega, Omega-3 Complex

Jarrow Formulas PhosphOmega contains phospholipid-bound omega-3s, which are better absorbed and utilized than the EE or triglyceride forms. I highly recommend this product. Thanks for the great service iHerb!
one of the best omega 3 without ethoxyquin
Posted by Reviewer2386805 on Jul 29, 2014 | Verified Purchase
Phospholipids are the best form for omega 3 but these om3 are made from fish meal (it's written on the bottle) and fish meal may contain ethoxyquin, it's a pesticide and dangerous for health. Of course, I have questioned Jarrow about ethoxyquin presence in this product. Today I have had an the Jarrow's answer : - Ethoxyquin is not used as a preservative in the fish meal that Phosphomega is derived from Therefore phosphomega is safe but unfortunately Jarrow will stop the product of phosphomega due in part of slow sales.
These are better than any others I've tried! ♥♥♥ Click on my username for more reviews!

I trust these to be a good product and these have a better absorption rate than others. Jarrow always makes a great product! It was recommended by two of my drs to take 4000mg a day; benefits memory. These are dark brown like the appropriate vitamin E's (with the tricotrinols and tocopherols?) are colored. I highly recommend these.

The Oregon Sustainability Act of 2001 (ORS 184.421) defines sustainability as "using resources in a manner that enables people to meet their current needs while allowing for future generations to meet their needs." Sustainability is a uniquely broad and long-term concept that addresses quality of life and efficiency concerns. It takes into account both local and global views, applying a timeframe that considers costs and benefits over lifetimes rather than one- or two-year cycles. Sustainability is an important consideration for agency decision-making - both for internal state agency operations as well as the mission-related activities of agencies. Incorporating sustainability into decision-making can have positive effects for stakeholder relations, for the bottom line, and for the natural resources of the state. Sustainability As A Core ODOT Value
Sustainability was added to ODOT's Value Statements in 2010. The current Sustainability Value reads: We balance economic, environmental and community well-being in a manner that protects the needs of current and future generations.
Sustainability in ODOT Policies Goal 4 of the Oregon Transportation Plan is Sustainability and calls for providing a transportation system that meets present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs, distributes benefits and burdens fairly, and is operated, maintained and improved to be sensitive to both the natural and built environments.
Sustainability Mandates in Oregon There are various directives that require ODOT to incorporate sustainability into its operations: The Oregon Sustainability Act was adopted by the Oregon Legislature in 2001 (ORS 184.421) and provides state agencies with 10 objectives for conducting their internal operations and 10 objectives for carrying out their missions to support sustainable communities. Further, it created the Oregon Sustainability Board to provide oversight to sustainability efforts in the state. Executive Order 06-02 ("Sustainability for the 21st Century") re-energized the sustainability agenda in the state by reaffirming the agency sustainability planning process and creating several interagency teams to address specific sustainability initiatives such as greenhouse gases, purchasing, electronic waste, and energy. This executive order also addressed sustainability in the private sector and in Oregon's University System. Finally, it reauthorized the Oregon Sustainability Board. Oregon Sustainability Board The Oregon Sustainability Board, created in 2001 under the Oregon Sustainability Act, encourages activities that best sustain, protect and enhance the environment, economy, and community for the present and future benefit of Oregonians. The Governor appoints Board members who represent a variety of stakeholders in Oregon.

- - My Parvo Puppy - (9 weeks old) (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/health-issues/416466-my-parvo-puppy-9-weeks-old.html)
My Parvo Puppy - (9 weeks old)
I would love some advice.
Our journey with Parvo started a few weeks ago. We made the decision to bring into our family a beautiful female 8 week old GSD puppy. I am a single mum with 2 daughters,,, it was a big decision to make and we were over the moon excited to bring her home. 17 hours after she arrived to our home, she got terribly sick,,, lots of vomiting, bad smelly diarrhoea, lethargy and loss of appetite not to mention she wouldn't take fluids by herself. We took her to our local volunteer animal welfare clinic (we live in a developing country,, its the only option we have) where the vet told us they felt it wasn't anything serious,,, and possibly due to the raw sausage we gave her. They did mention Parvo,, but the breeder we bought her off was reputable and they felt it wasn't an issue,, they didnt test her. She was on a drip for 5 hours and we were allowed to take her home. 2 days later she was admitted to the clinic and passed away less than 24 hours later. We were devastated.
The breeder told us he would replace our puppy when we were ready. We were told her sister from the same litter was still available so 5 days later we picked her up,, brought her into our home. She was such a barrel of fun and a massive amount of energy when she came to us :) WE picked her up last Sunday,,, 5 healthy days,, then on Saturday she got sick. We came home after our working day and the sitter told us she was lethargic all day,, and had vomited.. I panicked and rang the vet,, couldn't get hold of them. They rang me the following day and told me to bring her in. Sunday the volunteer staff stabilised her, by giving her fluids through her mouth and syringe. Monday morning she was diagnosed with Parvo and put on a IV. We were gutted and then we all realised the first puppy must of had it and now it was in our yard.
Since then, Daisy has been in the clinic on and off the IV fluids, is on several medications including antibiotics. I read last night that Tamiflu could assist so they introduced her to 10 mg twice a day,, starting today. They have allowed her to come home tonight as no one supervises the animals overnight and she is the only one in isolation. She is home,, on a IV drip again and I am boiling chicken on the stove,, (will puree and syringe a little into her tummy via her mouth)
Is there anything else I can do while she is in my care overnight?
Sorry to hear what you've been going through. I really hope your puppy recovers quickly.
There are a couple of good recent parvo threads documenting what some others have been going through with plenty of advice.
I'm not sure how to link those threads, but you can just search the forums for parvo.

I am so sorry to hear about your puppies. Hope this puppy recovers quickly! Please keep us updated!!

I have no advice....just heartbroken for you....:-(

I am so sorry, I hope your pup gets well. Unfortunately parvo was in your home, and she probably picked it up there. The parvo virus can survive outside of the host for months. There were quite a few parvo threads here with a lot of good advice, you can use the search option to find them.
Thank you,, I feel like I have been up all night researching,, not much more I can do other than hydrate. Her IV slipped out from movement and I pureed the chicken meat and stock,, but she seems to have thrown it up. She is back at the animal clinic in a hours time.. so hopefully they will put her back on IV fluids. No eating :(
BUT: its now day 5 and she is still up walking around,, and follows me.. sleeping lots but the first pup was almost gone by this stage,,, we are hopeful that she pulls through... 3 weeks ago I had never heard of PARVO,, now I am consumed with knowing more. A horrible thing it is .
Thank you everyone :)
Fluids can be administered subcutaneously as well, in case of need.
I am not a Vet.
Clean everything.
The previous puppy introduced the virus into your home and your yard.
Bleach is the best option. Even bleaching the yard.
Because that virus can live for years in the ground( and anything else that has been exposed) and can potentially get your older dogs sick too.
I saw an Alaskan show and they used bleach in their food because they did not have a vet any where near them and they feared losing ALL the dogs before a vet could be flown to or in. I don't readily advise feeding it to your pups, but, you can ask the vet and see if they recommend a viable dose.
But I do know you need to sterilize everything and bleach is the only thing that will definitely kill Parvo.
Today is she is worse. She seems to have develop fluid or swelling in her leg and upper joint area.. She was not put on IV today by the VET and was told that she hadn't vomited and only released one runny stool... but when I got her home,, she has done 2 watery stools and vomited twice and its only been within 2 hours.. I keep giving her 10 mils of water every 30 mins,, and a teaspoon of pureed chicken every 2 hours. I am trying to get her energy back.. she is very very flat tonight,, less energy than yesterday.. She has that look that my last puppy did in her final hours,,, I just want peace for her or health.. this in-between is just cruel.. :(
Yes we have been bleaching everything including towels sheets,, anything she touches or comes in contact with.. We don't let her in the yard and tonight she hasn't left her bed...
Thanks so much for all your advice

Indonesia has long regarded itself not only as the largest Muslim nation in the world but as a society which respects ethnic and religious diversity. There have been several incidents during the past few years in which ethnic groups were subject to attack by Muslim fanatics, but, the majority of Indonesians believe in tolerance. The Indonesian House of Representatives unanimously passed a bill that terms ethnic and racial discrimination as serious crimes. It was hoped the bill would end discrimination against minority groups. Chairman of the special committee which worked on the bill, Murdaya Poo, commented: "A man cannot choose to be born as part of a certain race or ethnic group, and therefore discrimination must cease to exist.
Hopefully, Indonesia can be a model for other Muslim nations which still have legal discrimination against members of non-Muslims. The legislature is debating whether imprisonment for racial prejudice should be the minimum sentence to anyone convicted of violating the law.

AT&T Gets Nokia Lumia 920 as U.S. Exclusive, Plus Lumia 820
Jason Mick
October 4, 2012 1:37 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Cyan Lumia 920 is indeed in the works, along with other colors; Lumia 820 will only be available in black
AT&T, Inc. (
), America's second largest carrier, has re-upped
its commitment to Nokia
Oyj. (
that for the fall it would be the only carrier in the U.S. to receive the company's top-of-the-line
Lumia 920
Windows Phone 8
An official launch date was not announced other than "November" -- but
previous leaks point to
a Nov. 2 landing.
The Lumia 920 features a glove-friendly 4.5" WXGA (768x1280) curved glass capacitive multi-touch display, a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor, 32GB of storage, 2000 mAh battery, integrated NFC, and built-in wireless charging using the
Qi wireless standard
A teaser video hinted
that a Cyan Lumia 920 was incoming, and indeed the AT&T press release says the phone will be available in "red, white, black, yellow, and cyan".
AT&T announced that the second-rung Lumia 820 would also be coming to its network. But if you're in the mood for the Lumia 820, hopefully your favorite color is black, because that is the only color that handset will be carried in, for now.
Olivier Puech, president of Nokia Americas, cheered the pickup, stating, "We welcome AT&T's decision to offer the Nokia Lumia 920 and Nokia Lumia 820, which, when added to what we've witnessed in other markets, underscores the momentum behind our Lumia devices and the broader Windows ecosystem. Our continued collaboration with AT&T is an important component for Nokia's success in the U.S. market."
Indeed, the partnership has proved mutually beneficial giving Nokia a hint of life and give AT&T
a fallback
now that its period of exclusivity for the Apple, Inc. (
) iPhone is over. Sales of the
Cyan Lumia 900
, the Lumia 920's "Mango" OS predecessor
have been brisk
, with the handset
typically being out of stock
earlier this year.
However, the exclusivity agreement may draw ire from customers and investors alike, as it inherently limits sales of the handset in the U.S. at a time when Nokia
desperately needs to prove
its Windows Phones can hold their own with the iPhone and Android.
PR Newswire
"Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine." -- Bill Gates

Fair doesn't exist. Not in life. Not in war. Especially not in the NBA Western Conference.
The Jazz exceeded expectations during the lockout-compressed 2011-12 season, banding together to win seven of their final nine games and earn a surprise postseason spot.
Utah's reward? A 4-0 first-round shellacking by San Antonio, which embarrassed the Jazz and never let Tyrone Corbin's struggling team breathe.
The 2012-13 campaign could be even crueler.
Oklahoma City only will be stronger, buoyed by an appearance in the 2012 NBA Finals and strengthened by the knowledge that Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook are the premier scoring duo in the league.
The Spurs are eyeing redemption, attempting to ride Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker for one last hurrah into the San Antonio sunset.
The Los Angeles Clippers are deeper, despite watching Randy Foye and Mo Williams move to Utah. Dallas is sharper, overcoming an initial stumble during free agency to again surround superstar Dirk Nowitzki with playoff-caliber talent. Denver is dangerous, armed with Andre Iguodala's multi-tooled touch. An exciting Minnesota squad highlighted by young stars Kevin Love and Ricky Rubio added everyone from ex-Jazz forward Andrei Kirilenko to former Portland standout Brandon Roy.
Then there's Memphis. And much-improved Golden State. And a quiet, little-known team from Los Angeles, which already featured Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol before adding unknowns Dwight Howard and Steve Nash in the drive to return Showtime to the Lakers' stage.
Think the Jazz are deep? The Northwest Division is deeper. And the Western Conference is deeper still.
It won't get any easier for Utah in 2012-13.
Welcome to the new, unrelenting NBA world order, Jazz fans. Get ready for the grind.
"We started that [as] our mentality the first day of practice," Utah power forward Paul Millsap said. "Nobody's going to feel sorry for us whatsoever. So we've just got to set the tone early and do what we do."
What the Jazz do has been proven effective. In the ever-changing NBA, Utah has become synonymous with consistency, even with key recent departures such as Jerry Sloan and Deron Williams. But while the Jazz have made the playoffs 25 out of the last 29 seasons, Utah hasn't been to the Finals since 1998 and never has won a championship.
Jazz in 2013? Don't get your hopes up.
The Lakers are primed for gold, posting a starting five that features at least three likely Hall of Famers and a threatening fifth piece in small forward Metta World Peace.
The Thunder finished 47-19 last season, then blitzed the Spurs in the Western Conference finals, making a San Antonio team that looked title-bound when it whipped Utah suddenly appear its age.
Stacking the deck even taller: The Jazz play in the toughest division in the NBA, with Oklahoma City, Denver, Minnesota and Utah possessing realistic playoff chances. Even Portland will be a factor, since the Terry Stotts-coached Blazers still feature All-Star big man LaMarcus Aldridge and will be run by former Weber State point guard Damian Lillard.
Wrap it together, and the West continues to be the best. For the past 10 years, the conference has been loaded, with playoff spots six through eight regularly going down to the buzzer. The 2012-13 campaign could be the toughest in recent memory. The rich kids got richer, the best ballers have yet to hit their prime, and bottom-feeders such as New Orleans and Sacramento are lined with lottery talent.
The Jazz exceeded expectations to earn a 2012 postseason berth. They'll have to do it again just to stay relevant.
"I remember playing in a division with San Antonio and Dallas when I was in Memphis, and we would win 55 games and still barely make the eighth spot," Utah veteran point guard Earl Watson said. "The West is going to be similar this year. You're going to have to win a lot of games to just creep into the playoffs, but you won't be that far behind the fourth spot. So it's critical."
Predicted finish
Northwest Division
1. Oklahoma City
2. Denver
3. Minnesota
4. Utah
5. Portland
Western Conference
1. Oklahoma City
2. L.A. Lakers
3. San Antonio
4. L.A. Clippers
5. Dallas
6. Denver
7. Minnesota
8. Memphis

Despite suffering two major defeats in the past week, Arsène Wenger is not doubting the steel of his side.
Arsenal were knocked out of the FA Cup by Manchester United on Saturday evening. The 2-0 loss came just days after Barcelona had ensured their Champions League exit at the Nou Camp.
However Wenger's men are still chasing the Premier League title and, in the wake of a costly week, the manager remains confident in their fortitude.
"Yes we have it," said the Frenchman. "I don't question that. We played Wednesday against Leyton Orient, Saturday against Sunderland, Tuesday against Barcelona with ten men and against Man United.
"It's a very, very difficult schedule. It's been very difficult for the players but they have never shown any sign of weakness mentally. Even on Saturday they have put in absolutely every effort and can only be proud of how much they fought."
However Wenger accepts that, having gone from four competitions to one in a fortnight, he is under greater scrutiny than ever before this season.
"I question myself always, don't worry," said the manager. "But If I listened to everybody then it would be a miracle that we are still playing for the title with ten games to go.
"Nobody in England believed we could even fight for the top four. The fact we are in the position we are in I think deserves a lot of credit.
"I don't know [if winning it now would be my greatest achievement]. I let other people judge my performances. The only thing I can say is that I'm ready to give absolutely everything to do it.
"I'm confident we will but we need now to work to recover."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

How much heat is too much?

How much heat is too much?
That's an unknown. The rule of thumb for chemicals is every 10 degree rise in temperature halves the chemical life.
I've shot 1930's German 8mm ammo, some great stuff. I've shot 1980's 7.62x54r Bulgarian, it was erratic and nasty. My guess is that storage conditions made a big difference.
My approach is, that if the ammo or powder is stored at a temp/humidity comfortable for me, it's going to last.
A Glock will melt before ammo will go bad.
From StorageFrom Alliant Powder: Reloading SafetyQuote:
From RamshotQuote:
Recommendations for Storage of Smokeless Powder
The powder manufacturers all list storing powder in a cool, dry place. Go right ahead and heat up your ammo with melting glocks, I'll keep mine cool, reliable and consistent.Quote:
Store powder in its original container in a cool/dry place.
Consider this, too: best info I can find is that a glock won't melt 'til 230 c, which is 446 f. Nearly 500 degrees. At that temp you'd have rounds cooking off.
The US military seems to worry about storing ammo at high temps also:
Operation Desert Storm: Solar Radiation Shielding Materials for Ammunition Storage
"Abstract : Absorption of heat through high ambient temperatures and solar radiation has proven to have an adverse detrimental effect on ammunition in open storage. "
How much heat are they worried about? Seems about 161 degrees F is what ammo in Saudi Arabia can get up to. And this is ammo for relatively immediate use (months) not long term stockpiles:
Saudi Arabia (SA) Ammunition Temperatures in Open Storage, 1991
There is a 5 Gal. pail with a screw on lid made entirely of plastic that fits the needs
of a cashed stashed for under ground storage needs. it screws on to a gasket so I'de
say good to go for 3 years. I saw some at a home Depot about 2 years ago. I'm sure
you could get them a resteraunt supply house.
I purchase ammo cans several at a time. .30 cal and .50 cal cans. Pistol cartridges in .30 cal cans and rifle ammo in the .50 cal.
Example: Load approx 1000 rds of .38spl 158g SWCs. Drop them loose in the can. When full seal the lid, wire it shut, and stencil on what caliber, load info, and date. I stack them in the closet of my bedroom. House is always moderately cool. Never gets over about 80 degrees. And there is little moisture, though that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Then I also use the tall .50 cal cans for storage of misc. stuff. Mostly anything that may be of use should SHTF.
Here's the best way for long term storage of ammunition--or anything else of interest or importance....
PVC pipe--large diameter PVC pipe.
10" / 12" or larger inner diameter PVC. Schedule 40 pipe is great (white PVC). In the larger sizes, the wall thickness is slighly more that 1/4".
Large diameter PVC is easily available at plumbing supply warehouses--that kind that tradesmen and contractors use. Here cash is king--so walk in, know what you want, and wave cash... you will not be turned down.
PVC is easily cut with a hand saw. Just make sure your ends are square, this done by wraping a string around the pipe--measuring from the end for alignment, then marking with a pencil or marker. Cut along the line as you roll the pipe.
Your containers are then sealed using PVC (same schedule) end caps, plugs or screw caps. Make sure you use lots of PVC primer, before you apply liberal amounts of glue.
End caps are recommend because they provide a completely sure-fire seal. Allow a few inches of room between the end-caps and your stuff. This is because when you want to open it later--you tap the stuff to one end by tilting up the container. Then you saw around the end cap. Voila! It's opened.
I would suggest using lots of desecate (sp?) packs inside your containers. And before you seal it up--use a hair dryer on low heat... with it aimed into the container for a half an hour or so. This will drive out excess moisture.
Hidding your containers? Burrial of course. But not off your property--or property you cannot control. Crawl spaces under houses, sheds, etc.--sprinkled with lots of scap pipe of course to throw off metal detectors. Do not burry you container in ground that has a shallow water table--don't push it. Or on a potential flood plain--it may float up. Do not burry your container on ground that has vehicle traffice (tractors, cars, etc.) --you don't want to crush it.
If you need a BOC (bug-out-container) off property, then you have to be very clever where you place it. Again take in all the considerations above. Formost you need security. Un-trodden space. Unseen. Away from the obvioius places where treasure hunters with metal detectors would ply. No abandoned homes, ranches, etc. But it has to be accessable. This is the conondrum! Also... you need security when placing your container. You don't want to plant something under the watching eyes of a theif--who will wait for you to leave and dig up your goods. Put some thought into this process, with the thought of how you are going to re-locate your cache rain, night, day, snow or whatever. Also--if you should go down--make provisions for someone else to take up the flag.
Ammo cans--not good for burrial. Yes they are water-tight, but they rust. I believe a 50-cal ammo can will fit into a 12" dia PVC. ---this would be optimal. Ammo cans would be good in a walled-up hide-hole, false floors, etc. where fast availability is necessary. Also when storing metal items (ahem!) inside PVC--oil, oil, oil and seal in plastic. Break items down if necessary.
Storing ammo only--2" diameter PVC is readly available at Home Depot. A lot of ammo can be stored inside a 2' x 2" PVC container.
Sky's the limit using PVC--thank God for Dow Chemical.
PVC pipes are good! Do everything you said and us a RVT sealant around the outside lip, you know have a double seal that has some ability to be distrubed and still maintain a seal. if the tube is long, remember to tie sting to small stuff, to help get stuff out when you need it. Next you need a PHD, no, not a college geek, a post hole digger, dig to proper depth, put in some small rocks to keep water from sitting on your PVC. To store guns the sameway, use transmission fluid, have friends that did this in the 90's pulled up the stuff, looked like new, plus the fluid is good to clean weapons in SHTF times.

I don't believe in burying weapons. Still, I have received so many emails about this that I guess I need to mention something. Whatever you do, you need to keep at least one weapon set (pistol and rifle) with you along with the accompanying ammo. But for those with extensive arsenals who want to secure them better and outside of the "gun safe" method, read on.
To cache means to hide something. You don't learn to cache the sorts of things we are talking about in police academy, you learn it from criminals. A true cache, like we are discussing, should be able to lay undetected for years.
There may be varying levels of caches as well. An E&E (escape and evasion) cache will contain a complete getaway kit in addition to a pistol and maybe a folding stock AK, that while well hidden, can be grabbed up and used in a blink of an eye. Think of that as a hidden bug out kit. Such a cache will contain stuff to fight with, stuff to treat injuries with, stuff to eat, and stuff to use to change your appearance. A few $100 bills would be a good idea too. All of that can go in a small backpack (except for the AK).
I don't think anyone has interest in the cache of "sports guns", so we will focus on the cache of fighting weapons such as assault rifles and combat pistols. Remember to make certain to leave no fingerprints on any cache item. All caching must be done with latex gloves on and those of you with hairy arms, wear long sleeves taped at the cuffs. Free market guns (private party anonymous purchases) are better for this than those whose numbers are married to you.
Remember that it is not enough to dig and bury as the "fresh grave" in your front yard will only draw attention. You need to "hide" it. Look at three broad categories: rural caches, urban caches, and underwater caches.
Rural Cache - In the countryside, cache options abound. Needless to say that a cache can be located on your property, but look to cache stuff either on someone else's land, or in public land. Look for old piles of metal or used up farm equipment. These make great places as few snoopers will want to move a bunch of rusty junk around. And all that metal wreaks havoc on any technical search methods. Abandoned farmhouses, ruins, and foundations provide countless hiding places, as do small caves, old mines, and even graveyards. Just look for places where people would tend to not want to go, or places that would be overlooked. It is a good idea to GPS the coordinates and memorize them like your birthday.
The Urban Cache - In cities you must be more creative. You need to find a quiet dark out of the way corner were you can remove some tile or blocks or panels to create an improvised vault. Remember, make it look nasty and few people will put their hands in there.
The Underwater Cache - Arms may be sealed into a big PVC pipe, then sunk. The Swiss did this during WW2 as a fallback in the event Hitler's forces invaded
No matter where your cache will be located, you should go to great pains to make sure that it remains sealed and moisture proof. A large PVC pipe works fine, but I am more in favor of a large Pelican Case. Remember that if your cache is damaged by nature, you will have wasted your time. A Pelican case can not only be made water proof, but is as strong as steel.
A chunk of dry ice dropped into a watertight package and allowed to "steam off" before sealing will purge out the rust producing oxygen. Silica desiccant bags are also necessary -specially for an ammo cache. Where possible, for long term storage seal the lids with a bead of silicone glue.
Where tight space is a consideration, as in urban caches, you may have to merely wrap your weapons in plastic. In this case use the biggest thickest heavy duty lawn and garden bags you can find. After placing the arms inside, suck out all the air you can, twist the end, and duct tape the hell out of the entire bag.
Memorize the location of your cache. Take compass readings and GPS coordinates as well as the use of landmarks. Keep an eye on it regularly by simply driving by if nothing else. Be alert to construction around your cache.
If you see signs of activity, or the survey stakes go up, move it out immediately. When you look for a cache location, consider that you will need an excuse for being near it. This is easy in rural areas but slightly more complicated in the urban environment.
When returning to a cache, do some counter-surveillance. Move through the area looking for anyone or anything out of place, or anyone who may be staking it out, or even a new "utility box" which may contain a remotely operated camera. When making a final approach, don't walk right up to it.
Just as discussed in Roger's Ranger Rule Book, "fish hook" your trail, double back and observe your own path in to check for followers. This may take some time, but is well worth it.
Finally, walk right past your cache and make it appear you are doing something, or unloading something into an adjacent area. This is simply a ruse for the event you are compromised. If you are contacted at this point, your adversaries may not find the true cache, and your "cover for action" is believable. Only when you are truly sure of your safety should you go to the cache and unload it. Consider leaving tell-tale secret marks which will tell you if anyone has disturbed and replaced your cache. It is a favorite trick of security forces to put tracking devices into cached weapons in order to follow the guerrilla back to his base and catch the entire band.
A tell-tale may be a bit of thread or a pebble etc. placed in such a way that if the cache is disturbed it will break or fall out without the security forces noticing it.
Having written all of this, I want to make a point - I don't like the idea of caching weapons for the reasons most folks will do it. Freedoms are not given, they are taken. And once possessed, they cannot be taken away while the original owner lives and is willing to kill and die to keep them. We would be a different nation if those who live here today had not forgotten that lesson of yesterday.

36' Custom Built Enclosed Trailer! MUST SEE!!!
This trailer is unlike anything you'll find anywhere. It was custom built in 2006 by a high end coach builder in Cincinnati with an open wallet and a specific purpose. This was built to haul a 250K wooden boat to boat shows. It was built extra wide at 101" and extra tall (app. 108" and I'll get that measurement also). There is nothing that was left out. The overall length is 36'. The length to the start of the V-nose (full width front to back) is about 32' and the extra 3' or so in addition to that is the V-nose. I'll try to list most of the main points
- V nose to help on wind and drag.
- Dove tail built in to trailer floor to aid in loading
- All diamond plate finished floor, rear door, lower front.
- Full finished interior.
- POWER REAR DOOR!!! Open the side small door and there is a switch to open and close the rear door.
- Built in lighting all around the ceiling inside the trailer. Behind the lexan in the top corner as you can see in the pics.
- Built in the floor are 2 deep cycle batteries for the lighting and power invertor.
- Built in electric winch at front of trailer for loading heavy items.
- Electric tongue jack.
- Custom built diamond plate ramps to use inaddition to the rear gate (for very low cars or in this case,boats.)
- 110 volt recepticles around the trailer run from the invertor built on the front wall (see pics)
- Light switches for the interior lights at all door openings.
- Comes with weight distribution hitch and bars. (Pulls like butter with these hooked up).
- D-rings in floor in multiple locations for tie downs.
- All aluminum on the exterior was prepped and painted with silver when new so that nothing could ever corode or look dull.
- All aluminum wheels in perfect condition and new tires.
- All bearings and brakes just gone through.
This trailer is top notch in every way and is all serviced and ready to go anywhere. It was probably only pulled down the road 5000 miles total as it only went to a couple shows. It is literally about like new and is awesome.
$28,000 to build!!!!
You will not be disappointed with this trailer in any way. It has been stored inside and hand washed and waxed when used (and I'm not exaggerating or just saying that, Serious!) Buy this trailer for nearly half of what it takes to build it, and it's as good as new.
Would work great for a race team or specialty vehicle or boat transporter.

Weight is 5800lbs. Tongue weight is unknown. Thing pulls awesome though. I pulled it with a F350 single rear wheel with no weight dist. bars hooked up with a mercedes CLS inside that weighs 5000Lbs and I couldnt tell it was there. It pulled extremely easy

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by armygirl, Jan 9, 2011.
I think they prefer to be called little people these days.
looks like denver is getting low-balled by every team at this point, I don't see them getting another star in return for melo, so what else are they going to get? If they decide not to trade they stand of chance of losing melo and getting absolutely nothing in return. I thought Stucky and RIP can contribute over there, right from the get. Throw in Summers a young guy with potential, I really don't think its a bad deal. I doubt Denver gets a deal thats heads and shoulders better than this one. Or like you said replace Hamilton with Prince and swing the deal that way. Throwing in Stucky and Summers or JJ definately sweetens the pot. Only problem is getting Melo to resign with Detroit.
What sort of pot would Stucky or Summers sweeten?
I'd rather re-sign Stuckey for 4 years, 35 million than Melo to 3 years, 60 million.
Not sure if serious.
I want to know what Wiggles thinks first.
Me too...and I could care less if he confirms it or not....
I'm 100% serious. 7.5 million a year for Stuckey isn't a horrible price, especially compared to 20 million a year compared to Carmello! You think Melo wants to be in Detroit!? I'm not a huge Stuckey fan, and Melo might put some warm bodies in the seats, but he isn't going to win us a championship and sooner than Stuckey would, especially with his crippling contract.
I understand your position, but I looked at 35 million over 4 years which is close to 9 million per season...and I just gagged. I don't see that kind of money for Stuckey. I really don't want Melo now either. Actually, I'd rather have a box of doughnuts.
Denver doesn't need more SGs. Afflalo is doing great over there and they have JR Smith coming off the bench. Smith is a headcase, but he can put up points. Last thing they need is Rip there. BTW, Melo will never ever ever never in a million years agree to sign an extension to play in Detroit.
Yes it would just be a salary dumping move on our part but I agree that we do not have anything that Denver would want unless you want to throw in Monroe, JJ and a couple of picks which would defeat the whole purpose.
With Tay and Rip gone wouldn't that open up some endorsement opportunities with Wallside Windows and Lasik Eyecare that Melo and his wife are looking for?
interesting ideas.
Ernie was definitely thinking outside the box.
On again, but it seems without Rip. Bummer. The Nets would send rookie Derrick Favors, point guard Devin Harris, forward Troy Murphy with his expiring $11.9 million contract, rookie guard Ben Uzoh, and four first-round draft picks to the Nuggets for Anthony, point guard Chauncey Billups, forwards Renaldo Balkman and Shelden Williams, and center Melvin Ely. The Nets would surrender their first-round pick for June's NBA Draft along with a pair of 2012 picks (a protected-to-18 pick received from the Lakers and a protected-to-7 pick from the Warriors), and a 2011 lottery-protected Rockets pick. Nuggets and Nets reportedly agree on deal, leaving Anthony to determine his own fate | ProBasketballTalk
I doubt the Nets would stay put after that trade goes through. They'll have: PG: Billups SG: Morrow SF: Melo PF: Humphries C : Lopez Off the bench they'll have: PG: Farmar SG: Vujacic SF: Outlaw, James, Ross, Graham PF: Balkman, Williams C : Ely, Petro They have a bunch of stiffs at the power spots, a plethora of useless SFs and an ex-Laker bench. Other than Vujacic ($5.5M), they don't have any expiring contracts of substantial value. They'll end up with a poor bench that nobody else would want. They don't have any assets that we can use either. CV and Rip would be nice bench players for them, but the two combined make 20M. The Nets would have to give up their entire bench to get those two. The best scenario for us would be for them to swap Petro, Vujacic and scrap SFs for Rip. All we'll get out that deal is we get rid of an equivalent of half of Rip's contract. In all likelihood, they'll pull of 1-2 more trades. We just won't be that trade partner.
Seems like a great deal for Denver... but I haven't thought it through completely. 4 first round picks?
It certainly does. I would have to be pretty sure that Melo signs to not accept this deal. I guess it's about if Melo wants to commit to NJ now.
Rumor has it that Joe has been working hard on a deal that would swap Rip Hamilton for Tayshaun Prince.
Separate names with a comma.

NHIAA Boys' Basketball preview: Wide-open races expected
That's right, scratch Merrimack off the list in Division I, toss out Portsmouth from the contenders in Division II. Berlin in Division III? Sorry. Moultonborough in Division IV? Bye-bye.
How do we know? What insight do we have?
All we know is history and recent history shows that champions don't hold their titles for long. One and done has almost been a given for the past five years.
In that time, there has been no repeat winner in Division I, one (Milford) in Division II and none in Division IV. The one exception was the five-year run put together by Conant of Jaffrey in Division III that ended in 2010.
The reasons for the general lack of dynasty vary. Players leave school early for prep school (see Dimitri Floras from Merrimack), some teams are hit hard by graduation (see Portsmouth) and others suffer a devastating injury (see Moultonborough).
Unbalanced schedules skew the seedings and make it difficult for some teams to play their way through the bracket, coaches change and luck isn't on a team's side. The list goes on. Just know there is always some booby trap ready to be sprung, derailing a team's chances of repeating.
Here's a look at each division and the teams trying to be the next in line to reverse the trend of one and done:
Division I
Merrimack won the title and had two cornerstone players to build its defense around in senior guard Dimitri Floras and junior forward Eric Gendron, but all that changed when Floras left for prep school.
Don't ever count out the Tomahawks - Gendron is that good - but Trinity, Central of Manchester and Spaulding of Rochester become favorites.
Trinity lost one player to transfer (Ian Sistare), but got a couple coming in to go along with Mabor Gabriel and Carmen Giampetruzzi. The Little Green are waiting to find out if senior Isaiah Joseph gets a waiver from the NHIAA to play. If that happens, Central coach David "Doc" Wheeler thinks he has a team as deep and athletic as he has ever had.
And think about this: Central and Trinity may not even be the best team in the city if Memorial of Manchester comes together under new coach Jack Quirk.
"They have the athletes," Salem coach Rob McLaughlin said. "They have a new coach, so you don't know. If they can buy in, they can be pretty good."
McLaughlin's Blue Devils lost four starters from last year's 14-win team, but senior forward Andrew Ruffin is back and healthy, which could make Salem a darkhorse along with Alvirne of Hudson.
Division II
Respect Portsmouth coach Jim Mulvey for not counting out his team's chances of getting back to UNH to defend its title, but the reality is that the Clippers lost all five starters and their top two players off the bench from last year.
"We're starting from scratch," Mulvey said. "It's different."
Pembroke is the clear favorite. Make that the overwhelming favorite. The Spartans have a little pressure on them as they go for their first title since coach Matt Alosa starred for them in 1991. They have something to prove after suffering a disappointing loss to Coe-Brown in last year's quarterfinals as the No. 3 seed and three of the most talented players in the division in Pat Welch, Rene Maher and Matt Persons.
Souhegan of Amherst, Lebanon and Oyster River of Durham should be waiting if the Spartans falter again.
"You win with seniors and that's what those teams have," Mulvey said.
Division III
Berlin lost Division III player of the year Curtis Arsenault and a couple of good complements in Jake Drouin and Sam Aldrich, so the Mountaineers will be hard-pressed to repeat.
That leaves the door open for Prospect Mountain of Alton, runner-up twice in the past four years (2009, 2012), and Conant.
The Timberwolves have an imposing front line with Logan Roberts (6-foot-6), Austin Perrin (6-3) and Jay Mousseau (6-3), while the Orioles have one of the top scorers in Devin Springfield, who will try to get them back into the title game after a two-year absence.
Don't sleep on Campbell of Litchfield. It's been nine years since the Cougars made it to the finals. This could be the year they get back with talented guards Max Gouveia and Jesiah Wade.
Division IV
Drew Swedberg was supposed to be the centerpiece if Moultonborough had any chance of repeating as champion.
Then the senior guard broke his foot in a preseason scrimmage.
"That changes us a lot," Moultonborough coach Matt Swedberg said.
Derryfield, Newmarket and any one of several teams from the North Country are capable of winning it all.
Derryfield lost all-state guard Gus Davis, but the Cougars have almost everyone else back and they added 6-foot-7 Roger Larrivee, a transfer from Bedford. Newmarket has been knocking on the door of a state title for the past five years and this might be the season they break through behind senior guard Christian Hawkins.
Littleton, Lisbon, Groveton, Colebrook and even Gorham could all be factors in the playoffs after they get done beating up each other during the regular season.
"It really helps everyone come playoff time," said Lisbon coach Sam Natti, whose team has one of the toughest schedules in the division.
One team that could make some noise is Epping with brothers Frank and Jimmy Stanley leading the way.

Bought this Fett helmet on Ebay last Oct. and I'm guessing it's a Mystery helmet? It flares out pretty wide. Any ideas? Thanks!
It's just a hair too small for my head, vertically. My eye-line is just a tiny bit too low. Wondering if I can sand the inside top of the helmet just a bit. 3/8" more space would perfect for my eyeline.

How do the plugs look?
Does the car drive OK during normal driving when you aren't into the secondaries?
Try backing the screws out 1/4 at a time and test drive with the secondaries disconnected and wired shut and check plugs.
Once you are confident the primary side is dialed in it will be a combo of accelerator pump shot and spring to get rid of the stumble when you stab it.
|I hate to keep hammering on this but back to the idle screws being 1/2 turn out, wouldn't that indicate a rich condition? Which in turn makes me wonder if the delay/hesitation is related to too possibly much fuel? There isn't any black smoke when I rap the throttle though so maybe not.
|If the check ball was left out of the secondary vacuum chamber it'll open too fast in most cases, too.
|I'm no expert here, but this problem sounds like something I ran into last year. I was helping a friend tune his truck and had the same issues. I discovered the spring was missing in the secondary. The diaphram was torn too. The secondarys were flopping open under WOT (running lean). It ran like a dog until about 3500 rpm then ran great up to rev limiter. We installed new diaphram and spring, and now runs great.
|To add to that - what's the cause of having to lean out the idle circuit? My fuel pressure is 6lbs. and I've set the float levels properly. I can only assume it's rich but I'm by no means a carb aficionado and nobody's ever told me otherwise.
Why would and or what would cause the idle mixture screws to only be out a half turn? This is where the best vacuum reading occurs for me.
Back to the initial timing perhaps?
|Why are the idle mixture screws out only 1/2 a turn?
Basically you want the secondaries to open as soon as they can w/o causing a bog.
A lot will be found in the timing curve I believe. Even fine tuning the accelerator pump circuit to give a seamless transition from idle/low rpm to wfo will help. Get the timing sorted first, then work on the carb tuning.
If the vacuum advance is supplying a lot of timing- timing that is dropping out when you hit the throttle- that can cause a bog, especially w/a stick shift car. An AT car having a correctly matched TC will flash to a higher rpm at the hit of the throttle and that will lessen or eliminate the effect of vacuum advance timing going away, because the mechanical advance is able to compensate for the loss of vacuum advance almost instantly because of the TC stall rpm. In a manual trans vehicle this is delayed from happening until the rpm gets high enough for the mechanical advance to compensate for the loss of vacuum advance- hence a bog/hesitation.
The cure for that is to use more initial timing, and to use ported vacuum for the vacuum advance or less vacuum advance and manifold vacuum. Limit the vacuum advance to 10-12 degrees and use an adjustable can so you can set the tip in point. In most cases the mechanical advance will need to be limited to keep the total (initial plus mechanical) from being too high.
I know it's tough to give a solution to a problem that you can't address first hand but thanks for the starting suggestions.
I'll try a lighter spring on the secondary and recheck the timing. I set it with a vacuum gauge initially then by a timing light and it's pretty happy where it is. The distributor is the standard GM style from Skip White so it's supposed to be higher voltage. Vacuum advance and set to manifold vacuum. I didn't change the springs or limit the advance.
To answer on the additional details, it's an 82 Camaro with street driven in mind. I'm guessing 3,500 lbs wet all said and done with driver. ST10 4spd, Kevlar clutch and 3.42 gears out back.
Cam isn't really wild, Engine Pro MC1988, 214/224 @ .50 makes power in the range of 2000-4000. Edelbrock RPM air gap, 180cc runner/64cc chamber Aluminum vortec style heads gasket matched with full port and polish , 1.5 roller rockers. It's got stainless 1.60 exhaust and 2.02 intake swirl polished intake valves. Flat top builder pistons with a .045 quench (yeah I know...). I plan to run it on 89 octane if I can get away with it.
So far I've only driven it a couple gears up the block and back last weekend in the almost 3 years I've owned it since it's been undergoing a full frame up (restoration). I just started body work so road tuning can't happen for a while but it's bugging me that gobs of power are lying in the secondaries.
My initial impression was it needs more guts down low and that the transition to the secondaries is HUGE and then the power shows up. How can I pull that power down lower which is where this motor should be. So how soon should the secondaries open?
|Here's a page w/info (under 10. Ignition advance in the table of contents) on setting up a performance advance curve. The page deals primarily w/the GM HEI, but the info on the advance curve and vacuum advance, etc. holds true regardless of the type of distributor, be it a points type, non GM, aftermarket, or whatever.
If the cam has a fair amount of duration/overlap that gives a rough or choppy idle, 14 degrees may not be enough initial timing. Are you using a vacuum advance? If so is it connected to ported or manifold vacuum? Vortec and other fast burn heads can use 34 degrees total timing just fine, other heads that's not going to be enough for maximum power.
Before changing the PV you need to see what the vacuum is while the vehicle is being driven as you do normally. You may find that a 85 PV will be adding fuel even when you're under not much load- and that's not needed. In most cases, a 65 PV will be about right; rarely is a higher opening point a help as long as the jetting is correct.
To set the idle mixture screws use a vacuum gauge to get the highest vacuum at idle.
You need a few things. First you need more initial timing.
Second you need to adjust the vacuum secondarys on your carb. They are set too tight which is delaying when they come in. First get your timing correct, then take a test drive. If the timing is correct and it still delays then you need to go to a weaker spring on the secondary.
Holley help
Hello again hotrodders! I need some help with this carb. It's a street avenger 670 that's been rebuilt fresh and installed. I think there is couple things going but I don't know quite which way to go and would greatly appreciate some direction.
Fresh sbc 350; 9.6:1 compression; 14* initial, 32* all in by 3,000. 4spd manual.
Problem is that when floored from rolling cruise, it's a dog until the secondaries kick in and then it comes alive and will turn the tires off in second gear. I can feel the secondaries open which I know isn't right.
I'm getting ready to change the power valve to an 8.5 from the stock 6.5. It's pulling 17hg vacuum at idle. Jets are at 68 primary and 71 secondary. I've changed the pump cam to blue to get rid of a lean hesitation from idle. I also changed to a 35 squirter which helped a lot.
Last but not least my idle mixture screws are only about 1/2 a turn out from closed which doesn't seem right to me based on the recommended starting point of 1 1/2 turns.
So where am I off at on adjustment?

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I was at Wilmot on the 24th and as a beginner I thought it was ok. Worthwhile for someone new like me and I'll be going on a weekly basis to work on my technique w/o the crowds. Mostly because it's conveniently close to work and home.
|Heading to Wilmot in the morning. Anyone riding tomorrow?
I was at Wilmot Sunday night between 9pm-11pm as I was itching to do any kind of riding after getting back from WA a few weeks ago.
It was COLD and windy, like 18 degrees, not sure how I found the motivation but still had a decent time just doing any kind of riding.
I must say that riding out here so far has been like ice-skating, I don't know if it's like this most of the time, but wow - you take a fall and you fricken pay!
I'm used to falling on my hands/wrists since my gloves have built-in wrist guards, but it seems like I've injured some bones in my hands, so will get that checked out tomorrow hopefully. Wrists seem fine thankfully. But I think I'm going to switch back to actual wrist/hand guards and pull gloves over them if I continue riding out here.
|I have not been able to get out yet this season due to work and kids but was really looking forward to finally getting out this Sunday. With tonights rain and the upcoming warm temps how bad do you think Wilmot will be? I am planning on going Sunday and they are saying temps by then will be back down in the upper 20's during the day. Just wondering if it is even worth it. As much as I would like to go somewhere else this weekend I just don't have the time for it.
I've been to Wilmot for my first few times skiing, and after I went to Alpine for the first time I never went to Wilmot again.
I'm not sure if they added a magic carpet now but when I was a beginner on the bunny hill at Wilmot it only had tow ropes and I think I almost died on several occasions.
Also I like Alpine's hills better in general.
Alpine had better snow coverage. I was there most of the day Saturday. They did shut down as these warm temps are killing us. The lifts were being attended to but the loading area was a bit barren.
As the day progressed it got quite warm and slow on the snow. As you said though riding this was better than not riding. That was my first time out for the season as well.
I actually went to Wilmot Saturday night, for my first Midwest snowboarding experience. I tried to keep my expectations as low as possible but was still pretty shocked. I really couldn't believe how small this place is. It takes a few minutes to get to the top of a run, and then you can bomb it down in like 15 seconds - I felt like a pro at this place.
Coverage was really thin and icy, just crusty leftover backyard snow overall. Most of the runs were totally bare and dry. I was kind of surprised they would even be open with conditions like this.
I almost want to say the experience was better than nothing but its tough.
There was some fun moments though:
- girl getting cracked and floored by the lift chair while rushing to join her friends last second
- seeing the ski patrol at this hill, just seemed like overkill to me, almost like mall security or something, but I guess someone has to do it - whatever that entails
- was kind of surprised how steep the ramp off the lift was, I had no problem with this but I can only imagine how bad I would've been wiping out if I was a beginner, this might have been because of how little snow pack there was
- the workers at both ends of the lift simply stopped patting the ground down with snow, so it made for quite an extra challenge trying to get off the lift on almost bare wood
I'll be checking out Alpine Valley next...
|Anyone know how the area is holding up with the rain and warmth? Looks like cold and snow at the end of the week.
|was at alpine thursday. like 80 percent open. with rails and jumps... its getting warm the snow is going to be doing that thing it does, melting.
Originally Posted by jfergus7 View Post

Both said park was minimal which this time of year is a certainty. The new park manager is trying for much better park and as of now he has delivered. 4 rail features and some small rollers. Not much I know but very early, again bad temps and it is more than they had out till almost late Dec last year.
I will be there all day Saturday and possibly tonight for a bit and not sure when Sunday. I will try to post here the condition but cooler early next week again so that will help. I may just not ride high sun or take a nap or just cruise the green section.
Riding anything is better than not riding or yard work

Built to fit
"We had the quintessential Portland life," says Monique Menconi. "A 2,500-square-foot 'ranchalow' with a finished basement, chickens, an amazing garden." But then? "We grew out of it." It's not that Monique and her husband, John, craved a McMansion. Rather, they wanted to live more efficiently.
So they downsized, purchasing an 875-square-foot loft in Portland's Pearl District and hiring interior designers Jessica Helgerson and Mira Eng-Goetz to reconfigure the home.
Today, the loft's main 15- by 30-foot space is kitchen, home office, dining room, and living room. "The irony is we have more space for the things that really matter," says Monique. "We could easily have 20 people over and spread out from the kitchen to living room."

Some content in this article is derived from information featured in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and, as such, spoilers will be present.
Firewhisky is an alcoholic drink that is consumed by wizards and witches. Those under the age of seventeen are not allowed to buy it, implying that they may not be allowed to drink it. This rule is not always followed. Popular brands include Ogden's Old Firewhisky and Blishen's Firewhisky. It is known to cause a burning sensation when drunk, and for filling one's body with courage.
Ron Weasley commented that he could most likely purchase Firewhisky at the Hog's Head during the Dumbledore's Army meeting, believing that the barman would not bother to check his legal rights to consume it.

so i got these last monday, july 19th. and once again i suck at taking progress pics. but here's the basic run down.
here's the kit fresh out the box, i didn't think it was necessary to take pics of both kits in their raw form.
here's where i am with both of them as of today, july 27. squirk's helmet is on the right, tk2280's is on the left.
no flash
with flash
i've also got the ear caps and rf tops half-way painted. i'm waiting on the paint to dry on the one side so i can flip them over and do the other side. next up is to wet sand with 1000 grit, and attach the rf and caps. and after that it's polishing and weathering. if i can keep up this pace i should be done next week-ish.

Canadiens goalie Jaroslav Halak, on Monday named the NHL's first star of the past week, hasn't allowed a goal in 144:01 heading into tonight's game on Long Island vs. the New York Islanders.

• Fortress Halak leads Habs playoff push: Stubbs column
• Simple playoff formula: Win and get in: Stubbs
• Where they stand in the East
Courtesy of two friends at the National Hockey League: Benny Ercolani, statistician and information officer; and Greg Inglis, senior director, news services. Our thanks to them for crunching the numbers (probably under a steamroller, finally):
If the Canadiens defeat the New York Islanders Tuesday night, they would clinch a playoff berth if either of the following happened:
• Either the New York Rangers or Philadelphia Flyers lose in regulation (to the Buffalo Sabres and Toronto Maple Leafs, respectively) on Tuesday;
• Or both the Rangers and Flyers earn one point (i.e., overtime or shootout loss) in their games.
• If the Canadiens earn one point Tuesday night (i.e., overtime or shootout loss), they would still clinch a playoff berth if both the Rangers and Flyers lose in regulation.
The Canadiens will not clinch a playoff berth under any circumstance if they lose in regulation. Nor will the Boston Bruins or Atlanta Thrashers be involved in the Canadiens' clinching scenario in any way.
