It was Aug. 8, 1974. My new wife and I were on our way home from a group retreat in Juneau County, Wisconsin, listening to the car radio to help us rejoin the real world again, when the music stopped.
After a short pause, we heard, "And now, the president of the United States."
I was raised at the height of the Cold War, thinking the world would end in October 1962 when the U.S. and Soviet Union stared each other down over the presence of Soviet missiles in Cuba. So it was natural for me to assume, "We're doomed."
Once upon a time, when I was in the seventh grade, I was a fan of the man about to give the speech, President Richard Milous Nixon.
In the summer of 1960, when I was 11, I carried a two-sided sandwich-board sign for his campaign. I walked up and down the 100 block of North Main Street, lingering in front of the John F. Kennedy for President headquarters, where Frank Sinatra's annoying "Oops there goes a vote for Kennedy" blared from a loudspeaker.
Why was I for Nixon? I went to Catholic school, where the principal and everyone else was for Kennedy the Catholic, because he was "our candidate." So I was for Nixon just to annoy the people in authority. Also, Nixon was Dwight Eisenhower's vice president and my parents liked Ike. But Nixon narrowly lost to JFK.
Then Nixon lost the California governor's election in 1962 and told reporters, "Just think what you're going to be missing; you won't have Nixon to kick around anymore because, gentlemen, this is my last press conference."
Then, in the most amazing rehabilitation in U.S. history, Nixon "carried water for the elephants," as Republicans say. He attended state and county GOP functions, helped GOP candidates, gave policy speeches and built an organization to run again for the presidency.
By 1968, he'd secured the Republican nomination for president. And luckily for him, the Democratic Party destroyed itself, live and in color at the tumultuous convention in Chicago, where Mayor Richard J. Daley's police beat and tear gassed all those nice, white, middle-class suburban college kids protesting Lyndon Johnson's disastrous war in front of the Conrad Hilton, where Democratic nominee-to-be Hubert Humphrey was staying.
The debacle convinced Americans that the Democrats were incapable of governing themselves, let alone the country. They ratified the GOP's slogan, "Nixon's the One."
Nixon the president wouldn't be allowed near today's far right Republican Party. He was a member of a now extinct species — the moderate Republicans. Nixon ended Johnson's Vietnam War, created the Environmental Protection Agency and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and Amtrak. He imposed wage and price controls.
Most important, Nixon, the famous anticommunist, went to China and met with Chairman Mao, the Great Helmsman of the 1949 communist revolution. Together they opened the door to what became a flourishing trade relationship between China and the U.S.
In 1972, Nixon was so popular that he carried 49 states and got 60.7 percent of the vote against Democrat George McGovern.
The second term seemed to hold great promise. But there was this one little thing ...
On June 17, 1972, five Nixon operatives broke into the offices of the Democratic National Committee in the Watergate apartment complex in Washington, D.C. It was a sloppy break-in, and the crooks were arrested quickly.
Instead of expressing outrage and vowing such a thing would never happen again, Nixon went to ground. He denied he knew anything and staged an elaborate cover-up so it couldn't be linked to him.
Nixon had tape-recorded all his White House conversations, and the Supreme Court ruled unanimously that he had to turn them over to Congress. On Aug. 5, 1974, the recording was made public in which Nixon suggested to Chief of Staff H.R. Haldeman that the FBI could be encouraged to stop the investigation into the break-in. That revelation did him in.
I remember watching weeks of congressional hearings prior to that moment. What struck me was how sober and deliberate both Republicans and Democrats were. On the Senate Select Committee on Presidential Campaign activities, both leaders, Howard Baker, the Republican from Tennessee for the minority, and Sam Ervin, Democrat from North Carolina for the majority, were determined to find the truth and let the chips fall where they may.
Unlike today, the political parties didn't have "Amen chorus" cable channels. Flame-throwers like the GOP's Darryl Issa and the Democrats' Alan Grayson hadn't been invented. Lawmakers tended to be serious people.
I'm tempted to think that we lived in a more serious country in those days. Then I remember the pointless slaughter of 53,000 American men in Vietnam and the debauchery of hippies, yippies, Woodstock and Dr. Timothy Leary, and I recall Paul Simon's song, "Still crazy, after all these years."
But back to Aug. 8, 1974, and the end of the pause on the car radio.
"I have never been a quitter. To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body. But as president, I must put the interest of America first ... ." Nixon said he would resign at noon, Aug. 9.
The voice was that of Nixon the realist, and the patriot. Three articles of impeachment had been passed by the House Judiciary Committee. He would almost certainly be impeached by the House, and he knew the Senate would convict him.
He could have put the country through months of wheel-spinning, but he did the right thing and went home to California.
Some people say he averted a constitutional crisis. Nonsense.
The only constitutional crisis we had was in 1861, when 11 states decided they could up and leave the country. That crisis was resolved by the killing of more than 600,000 Americans in a civil war. Answer: The states weren't allowed to leave.
When Nixon got in trouble, we just went to the instruction manual and followed it. And the band played on.

News, notes, quotes and updates after the second and final day of Big 12 football media days wrapped up Tuesday in Dallas.
Seen And Unseen
Fans attending Big 12 games this season will see one of Conference's innovations but the other will be hidden under players' shoulder pads.
Concerns abound about declining attendance. The high cost of tickets plus the fact that almost every game is televised apparently are two factors influencing fans to be more selective in the number of games they attend. The lure of saving money while staying home in front of the plasma TV is strong.
To make the in-stadium experience more appealing, the Conference will bring in-game highlights from other games to Big 12 stadiums this season. The goal is to give fans the video experience they're accustomed to getting at home.
"College football has experienced declines in overall attendance over the last four or five years, and I think bringing highlights in will take into account and help one of the things that really is getting to be a challenge for us," Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said.
"We see people that have a 60-inch television and they can have their mobile device with full wi-fi on their lap, no lines at the restroom, no charge for concessions, they can have a cold beer when they want to, and they don't have to spend six to eight hours traveling to and from the stadium."
The other Big 12 experiment involves gathering data on player's movements and collisions during games. Each player will have an RF (radio frequency) chip embedded in their shoulder padsl.
"This is a partnership with an organization called Sportvision. It will allow us to track players, their velocity, their path around the football stadium on a real-time basis," Bowlsby explained. "To be quite frank about it, we're not sure what we will do with the technology or what Sportvision will do with the technology, but we think it's a very interesting innovation that developments in other areas outside of sports have accommodated.
The Big 12, the Southeastern and Pac-12 conferences are partnering in the study.
Quick Hits
* The Big 12 and Pac-12 conferences have a new six-year deal with the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl. Previously, the bowl was aligned with the Big 12 and the Big Ten conferences. Starting after the 2014 regular season, the bowl will match the sixth selection from the Pac-12 against the fifth pick from the Big 12, after selections by the College Football Playoff. The Big 12 has been affiliated with the game since 2006.
* During the Bob Stoops Era (first season, 1999), Oklahoma has 149 wins. That's the most of any BCS AQ team. In Stoops' 13 seasons, Oklahoma has never lost consecutive regulars-season games.
* Iowa State running back Shontrelle Johnson has been cleared to resume full practices. Johnson, the Cyclones' second-leading rusher last season, suffered a torn ACL last December during practice for the Liberty Bowl.
* Texas has completed its new player personnel department by hiring a familiar name - Greg Robinson. He previously coached at Texas in 2004 and is joining the program as a football analyst. He'll contribute to quality control evaluation, film review and data collection for the Longhorns. Robinson was the defensive coordinator in 2004 before leaving to become Syracuse's coach for four seasons.
Quote, Unquote
Oklahoma State wide receiver Josh Stewart on the Cowboys being selected to win the Big 12 championship:
"Understanding what we have at stake, our athleticism is the most we have ever had in OSU's program. All we have to do is be coachable, we have one of the best coaching staffs in the business. I don't see why this season wouldn't turn out like we want to and that is be Big 12 champs with a national championship."
Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby on not being asked about changes in conference membership:
"I've been here about 30 minutes, and I haven't had a realignment question yet, which is the first time that's happened in the entire time I've been (commissioner)."
Kansas coach Charlie Weis on quarterback Jake Heaps, who transferred from BYU, a school he attended after Weis tried to recruit him to Notre Dame:
"I had recruited him out of Skyline High School out in Seattle, where he was the top-ranked player in the country, and he really wanted to come to that school I was at (Notre Dame), but he thought I might get fired, and he forgot to tell me that he was going to be right. He had better foresight than I did."
TCU coach Gary Patterson on the Frogs' tough non-conference schedule – they open the season against LSU in Cowboys Stadium:
"You're already playing great programs within your conference, but I truly believe you've got to cross over every once in a while," Patterson said. "Obviously, is it more of a risk for a head coach win/loss-wise? Yes. … For us to recruit the kind of kids to win a Big 12 title, to win a National Championship, you have to have some the best players in the nation come to your place. So the only way you can prove that you can do that sometimes is to go play - you can play a program like LSU."

Well more likely to be for athomas as he seems to be pretty active on the tech forum.
I've got an X-mag with usual lvl10 kit and abbadon air system @ 4.5k
Taking my mag out, attaching the bottle and turning the reg up to 800 psi I felt the usual click as the trigger engages due to the gas. No problem. However with everything set as normal one single trigger pull would make the valve cycle some 4 or 5 times. If it turned down the input pressure then the bolt would stick open and the valve would sit there happily leaking air.
Can't be too hard to fix I thought, so armed with the relevant exploded pictures of all the parts I took the bolt/valve assembly apart inspected everything for wear and with a little lube popped it all back together. Now in the course of this I noticed that there were no shims behind the carrier and in front of the delrin backing o-ring.
Anyway I popped it all back together and it works fine, cycling once per trigger pull. Now my query is exactly how did I fix this? I had previously lubed everything that requires it and shot some oil drops through the valve so the re-lubing shouldn't have done anything new.
My worry is that at some random point, possibly mid-game, it will start thumping out more than one ball per trigger pull or just fire slowly due to the lvl10 venting to prevent balls chopping.
Does the lack of shims make any difference to the setup? I don't believe it should, if it works with none, then I thought that was fine.
Hmmm, I hope this makes sense....all help/thoughts/comments gratefullt recieved.

LOWELL -- For the condo complex constructed by members of the Christ Church United's youth group Saturday, a blue tarp and bubble wrap made up the foundation. Cardboard served as the floors and walls, and duct tape held it all together.
"These ones are townhouses!" joked church member Karen Stairs as she oversaw construction. "You put another tarp right over the top and it'll keep you warm."
The makeshift structures on the church lawn were created to house a group of volunteers who, armed with sleeping bags and extra layers of clothing, would spend Saturday night out in the elements on East Merrimack Street.
The sleepout is an awareness-raising effort for the church's planned All Souls House, affordable-housing units that will be constructed in the church basement.
It's also intended to highlight the homelessness problem in the city, said Rev. Peter Lovett. He said it was fitting to hold such a event during the holiday weekend honoring activist and civil-rights leader the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
"We figured we'd try to do something in solidarity with those who are seeking justice," Lovett said. "We're trying to get a feel ourselves, existentially, of this experience of being underserved and marginalized and homeless."
Fifteen people, both adults and youth group members, were expected to spend the night in the cardboard campsite. Lovett said Saturday afternoon that the group hoped to use the evening to write part of the liturgy read at today's 10 a.m. Mass.
Youth group members taking part said they hope the night helps them understand the struggles others endure.
"It's a lot easier to have empathy for someone when you live their lives the best you can," said Ebony Moore, 13.

Augusta's wrestling team beat Campus, as did Andover Central. The Orioles and Jaguars both had big runs, and their dual came down to the final bout of the night.
Hutter Gymnasium became standing-room only as the dual between the Augusta and Andover Central wrestling teams wore on.
The Jaguars had a 28-6 lead halfway through the lineup, but the Orioles won five straight for a 34-28 lead with the crowd noise getting louder with each win. Central stopped the streak with a pin to tie the match at 34-34 with one bout left.
So it all came down to Augusta's Jake Ehrlich and Central's Tyler Craig at the 285-pound weight class.
Ehrlich led 2-0 after the second period after a critical penalty and an escape. As time wore down in the third, Craig took some good shots, but Ehrlich was able to flip flop the momentum and take down Craig to ignite the hometown cheers. Ehrlich won 4-0 and lifted Augusta to a 37-34 victory.
"I was just listening to the coaches. The coaches knew what I had to do," Ehrlich said. "I was just making sure I had everything down perfect."
After the teams exchanged handshakes, the Orioles corralled Ehrlich in celebration of a big victory against one of the top-ranked teams in Class 5A.
"It's a great feeling. Our kids battled, and they did what they had to do to get the job done," coach Brandon Terry said.
The Orioles had to rally after the Jaguars took control early. Jake Goldenstein (106) cradled Gregory Bentley in the first 40 seconds for a pin to start the dual, but Central won five straight matches. Three-time state champion and No. 1 ranked Zac Gentzler (120) got a tech win against Tyler Hildibrand, and Joe Umscheid (132) pinned Kaeleb Bratton for the Jaguars. Augusta had an open weight at 138, and Paul Suhr (145) beat Brett Hamilton 9-0 for a 22-point lead in the dual.
That's when Colton Clayborn (152) started the rally. He beat Jay Page 12-4 after allowing him a couple escapes to get a few takedowns and increase the margin the victory.
"That one-point difference can make the difference," Clayborn said. "I just listened to coach and did what he said, and cut him down to get the major. It took heart."
In the next match, Quentin Spainhower (160) almost immediately pinned Zach Schulte after a takedown and 3-point nearfall. But Spainhower quickly turned Schulte again and, this time, finished him with a pin.
"Just got a quick takedown from the slide-by straight into my half, and just working hard, going intense on it," Spainhower said.
Clayborn and Spainhower both finished 2-0 after wins against Campus in the night's opening dual, which Augusta won 44-30. The two of them kick-started a rally in that dual as well; the Orioles got six straight pins to erase a 16-point deficit.
"Before both of those duals, me and most of our middle [weight] class guys, we got in a huddle and talked about what we were going to do and how we were going to take it to them," Spainhower said.
Jacob Hill (170) played good defense early in his match against a couple good shots by Corbin Niemtschk, one of which he turned into a takedown. Hill won a lock-up that led to takedown, then a pin at 3:48. Wright Bosley (182) followed that with a pin just 40 seconds into his match.
Colby Willis (195), who didn't have an opponent to wrestle in the night's opening dual against Campus, dominated his match with a 12-0 lead before getting a pin late in the third period. Chance Runnion (220) thought he had the dual clinched against Sterling Brown, but Brown wasn't ruled as pinned after a takedown. Brown later got Runnion on his back for a surprising pin to give Central a chance before the final bout.
Goldenstein, last year's state runner-up, went 2-0 on the night, as did Hill (two pins) and Bosley (two pins). Augusta beat Campus 44-30, and Central beat Campus 61-15.

For pneu-mags? The Tickler seems to be unavailable, Palmer of course still has the Micro Rock, anything else you guys like?
For pneu-mags? The Tickler seems to be unavailable, Palmer of course still has the Micro Rock, anything else you guys like?
i like the adjustable WGPs, alla tickler with a screw adjust. PPS regs always **** the bed on me when not used for some length of time.
i like the "bullet" from the pro stocks, or the "can" from the outkast. small, fast, high flowing and not finger adjustable.
"because every vengeful cop with a lesbian daughter, is having a bad day, and looking for someone to blame"
it depends on the application. i don't have a penumag setup so i can't comment on that, but for other guns, my go to is Rocks and SCMs. rocks are a little harder to rebuild, but they don't need it often. and i just love AKA regs.
The one you make... when you make it
To leave feedback: Click seller/buyers name, Click feedback score, Click leave feedback
My micro rock has been good. Tickler was bad. Superbolt LPR needed work. I like urethane seats, wide pistons, and a vent for the spring pack.
Microrock & SCM III
On the expertise of others I went microrock my first pneumag. It's gone over ten years without requiring attention of any kind so I got one for my second pneumag last year. So yeah... I've added nothing to this thread.
Yeah, a testament to 10 years of trouble- and maintenance-free operation is something!
By the way, that's also why I ordered a Microrock for my Pneu setup as well. And why I ordered the Luke's 90* panels with interior milling to accommodate a LPR fatter than a WGP Bullet.
I've had good luck with Microrocks, Ticklers and SCMs.
If you're building a new project around a specific LPR I'd go with Microrocks; as far as I know they're the only ones in production other than the Empire one which isn't sold separate from the marker.
I use a micro rock for my pneumag (same reg 3 years). I tried a tickler and various other stock wgp takeoff regs they just don't compare since i am not running a sleeper set up the size did not matter.
I also have used the micro rock for years without problems. Parts are plentiful, design is user friendly to service. I've also had a few besales and bob long lprs that I loved on my autococker, but I think those are hard to come by.
Micro Rock, Pebble, and SCM-III
I can't comment on how well it works in pneumag set up, but i thought about trying one in the future.
http://www.automags.org/forums/showt...RKM-3D-Designs"You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes." RU
No problem. The Palmer site is really difficult to navigate.
How are the smart parts Lprs? Anyone have an opinion on those
I have a Palmer pebble on my pneumag and always ran a rock on my cocker. Have not had a problem so far with either.
Ive got a few of those in my spares there a very reliable lpr I have used them on a sleeper and 2 of my old cockers.
never needed to adjust them once set
Making an lpr is simple the microrock has to be the easiest design no need to be so big though
Ask hill I made a makeshift lpr for him a while back was only 1" 1/4 long and about 0.4 o/d.
Personally Ive found it comes down to decent springs and using a high durometer oring.
size wize 1/2" x 1 1/2" would be a nice size, all you need is a fine pitch thread on the adjustement
which will give you better pressure adjustment.
I so have some cad files somewhere if u want them

Mariah Carey said being a judge on "American Idol" was like "hell."
You think that's bad, Mariah. Watching you be a judge on "American Idol" was no picnic either.
Carey, who sat on the judging panel for one season with Randy Jackson, Keith Urban and her close friend Nicki (Satan) Minaj, told Hot 97 on Tuesday the experience was like "going to work every day in hell with Satan."
I guess we know who she was talking about.
According to USA Today, the singer, who notoriously feuded with Minaj all season, laughed before continuing.
"Nah, I'm just playing. It didn't affect me that much — I was just disappointed," she said.
You think you were disappointed, Mariah ...
Carey pointed out she was the first judge to sign up that season and expected to be on a three-judge panel. She said she was excited to work with friend Jackson.
She did say interacting with the contestants was positive.
"I loved the contestants," she said. "And some of them that were so good — and really good people, you could tell — it was disappointing when they would, for political reasons, not put people through. I'm like, 'I don't need to sit here and do this.' I would prefer to just put this person in the studio, record a record with them. Or tell another producer, 'Yo, you should produce this artist because they're beautiful, they can sing, they're talented.'"
"American Idol" returns in January.

The Bulls, Grizzlies and Heat play just two games in the upcoming week, meaning LeBron James' owners are going to get their first real test of the season. The Hawks, Nets, Bobcats, Nuggets, Warriors, Clippers, Lakers, Hornets, Knicks, Magic, Sixers, Spurs and Raptors all play four games, while the rest of the league goes three times in Week 4. Here are the guys to think about picking up.
Check out the NBA Season Pass and follow me on Twitter by clicking on the links.
Editor's Note: Isaiah Thomas has been benched for the Kings and Aaron Brooks will start on Sunday (along with John Salmons). Brooks might be a nice add in many leagues if he can get enough run from Keith Smart, Salmons might be in real deep leagues, and owners of Thomas have to consider dropping him, or at least getting him benched until further notice.
Point Guards
Jameer Nelson Magic – Nelson double-doubled in his first game back from his groin injury and will likely help to render E'Twaun Moore useless as long as Nelson can stay healthy. If Nelson was dropped in your league he's probably the best point guard available on your waiver wire and should be owned in all leagues. The Magic play four times in Week 4.
Ramon Sessions Bobcats – Sessions continue to roll along off the Bobcats bench, averaging nearly 16 points, 3.5 boards, 4.3 assists, along with half a steal and half a 3-pointer per game. Kemba Walker is off to a great start, but Sessions is also holding his own and deserves to be owned in most leagues. Gerald Henderson is close to a return, but I doubt it slows Sessions down too much. The Bobcats play four games this week.
Jason Kidd Knicks – Kidd is now moonlighting as a starting shooting guard in New York, averaging 8.6 points (his highest in three years), 2.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.9 3-pointers on the season. The scoring is a pain, but the steals and 3-pointers are very helpful. I cut Dorell Wright to pick up Kidd on Sunday and the Knicks have a four-game week coming up.
Andre Miller Nuggets – Miller had a big game on Thursday while Ty Lawson was struggling and is putting up numbers very similar to last season, averaging close to 10 points and six assists per game. He's not a must-own player, but if you're desperate for assists he might be the top option on your wire in that category. The Nuggets play four games in Week 4.
D.J. Augustin Pacers – This is a speculative add, as many in Indy are calling for Augustin to start with George Hill sliding over to shooting guard. If it happens, DJA will be worth quick pickup in all leagues. Thus far, DJA is averaging less than 14 minutes per game, so that would need to change for him to be worth an add. The Pacers have three games this week.

The Pacers have three games this week.
Shooting Guards
J.J. Redick Magic – I almost left Redick off this list because he should be owned in all leagues. He looks locked and loaded as the starting SG for the Magic, is averaging 16 points, 5.5 assists and 1.6 3-pointers per game, has four games this week and had 23 points, five assists and three 3-pointers in his previous game. I'm starting him over O.J. Mayo (3 games) in a weekly league this week. Redick is out on Sunday due to an illness, but should be ready for his four-game week.
Jordan Crawford Wizards – Crawford somehow bumped Bradley Beal out of the starting five on Saturday and had 20 points, eight assists and a 3-pointer on 7-of-18 shooting. He will kill your team's field goal shooting from time to time and I have no idea how long he'll start over Beal, but Crawford is worth grabbing in all leagues until we find out. As for Beal, I can't imagine Randy Wittman keeping his job for much longer if he keeps Beal in the barn, and I'd be very reluctant to drop him at this point. The Wizards have three games this week.
Alexey Shved Timberwolves – Shved has been seeing heavy minutes and has scored in double digits in four of his last five games, averaging 17 points and close to five assists over his last three. Yes, they have Brandon Roy, signed Josh Howard and start Malcolm Lee at the shooting guard, but Shved is the guy to own out of that group. I'm not sure he's truly a must-start player just yet, but he's awful close to it. The Wolves play three games this week.
Jason Terry Celtics – Terry got off to a miserable start this season, but may have gotten some new life when Rajon Rondo was out with his ankle sprain. Then Terry went off for 20 points and four 3-pointers in a start at shooting guard on Saturday and might finally be ready to start contributing. I know I cut him in a couple leagues and chances are he's floating around on a ton of waiver wires right now. We just have to hope he keeps starting and keeps hitting 3-pointers, as he's not likely to help you in many other categories. The Celtics have three games this week.
Danny Green Spurs – Green is averaging 11.7 points, 3.0 boards, 1.2 steals and 2.1 3-pointers in 29 minutes per game. Kawhi Leonard will miss this week, meaning Green should be better than usual and the Spurs play four games in Week 4.
Shannon Brown Suns – Brown's coming off the bench but it also sounds like changes could be coming to the Suns' lineup, and he is a possibility to start over Jared Dudley, who has struggled all season. Brown has hit double-digits in seven of his 11 games this season and is averaging a career-high 13.4 points and a 3-pointer per game, but isn't doing much else. But if you're thin at SG he's worth a look in all leagues, especially if he takes Dudley's job. The Suns play three times this week.
Terrence Ross Raptors – This is another speculative add, as Ross (and Linas Kleiza) should see a big bump in minutes with Kyle Lowry, Alan Anderson and Landry Fields all injured. Anderson and Fields aren't coming back anytime soon, and Ross is going to see a lot of minutes. He played 24 minutes on Friday and had 10 points, two 3-pointers, a steal and a block in that one. He's worth a close look in deeper leagues. Ross and the Raps go four times in Week 4.
Small Forwards
Al-Farouq Aminu Hornets – Not everyone at Rotoworld loves Aminu, but since I own him in most of my leagues, I'm a little biased. The kid's having a very nice season and hasn't show any signs of slowing down, averaging 12 points, 8.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.8 steals, 1.1 blocks and is shooting over 50 percent from the floor. Seriously, what is there not to love about this guy? Hopefully he'll play as well in his next eight games as he has in his first eight. Add in that he's got a four-game week coming up and he looks like a must-start player.
Chandler Parsons Rockets – Parsons has distanced himself from Carlos Delfino, who's no longer worth holding in most leagues. Parsons should be owned in all formats and is averaging 19 points, eight boards and three 3-pointers over his last three games. The Rockets only have three games this week.
Harrison Barnes Warriors – Barnes has hit double figures just four times this season, but has been a beast over his last two games, averaging 18.5 points and 11 boards. He's hit six 3-pointers on the season, but won't help you in a couple other key cats, as he's totaled just four steals and one block on the season. The arrow on Barnes is pointing straight up and while he's likely to be inconsistent going forward, he's worth grabbing in a lot of leagues right now. He has a four-game week coming up.
Tayshaun Prince Pistons – Prince has quietly put up solid numbers this season, and they're almost identical to what he was doing last year – 12.7 points, 4.1 boards, 2.3 assists, 0.6 steals, 0.5 blocks and 0.5 3-pointers per game. Those aren't the best numbers you'll find anywhere, but they're good enough that he can help your fantasy team. The Pistons have three games this week.
Shawn Marion Mavericks – Marion's back from his knee injury and had 10 points, 10 boards, four assists and a steal in his last game. As long as his knee holds up, he should be a decent player to put at the end of fantasy benches in 12-team leagues. Dallas only plays three games this week.
Metta World Peace Lakers – MWP has scored in double digits in six straight games and is averaging 13 points, five boards, 2.1 assists, 1.7 steals and 2.2 3-pointers while hitting 38.4 percent of his shots this season. The shooting is a big concern, as is his production once Mike D'Antoni puts his stamp on this team, but for now, MWP is worth grabbing in most leagues. The Lakers play four times this week.
Kyle Korver Hawks – Korver's hit double digits in five of his last six games and is averaging 17 points and nearly six 3-pointers over his last three. He's starting for the Hawks and playing well, making him worth a grab in any leagues where you're in need of 3-pointers. The Hawks play four times this week, so he's going to be a popular add.
Kyle Singler Pistons – Singler is in the starting lineup for the Pistons, replacing Rodney Stuckey (for now). He's averaging nine points, three boards and a 3-pointer, making him worth a deep-league look. But I'd rather own any of the aforementioned forwards in front of him.
Linas Kleiza Raptors – Kleiza is going to see more minutes with Alan Anderson and Landry Fields out indefinitely, and has scored in double figures in three straight games. He should be a decent source of points, boards and 3-pointers as long as he stays healthy, and has a four-game week on the horizon.
Power Forwards
Ersan Ilyasova Bucks – This has been a disastrous season for Ilyasova thus far and he has yet to score more than 11 points in a game. Owners are sick and tired of his struggles and my guess is he's starting to be dropped in fantasy leagues. There's no way he can be this bad all year and you have to think he'll break out of the funk soon. The Bucks only play three games this week and I've got him benched in weekly leagues. Hopefully he'll have it going by the time this week is over and he's definitely worth a flier right now.
Jason Thompson Kings – Thompson is quietly playing well and averaging 11 points, seven boards and 1.3 blocks per game. He's hit double digits in four of his last five games and is coming off his best line of the season when he had 19 points and 10 boards against the Hawks. The Kings have three games this week and Thompson, who has started every game, is worth owning in most leagues.
Derrick Williams Timberwolves – Williams had a season-high 23 points to go along with seven boards, four blocks and a 3-pointer on Friday. He'll take a hit once Kevin Love is back, but he's crashing the boards and getting minutes for Minnesota right now, and I'm going to roll with him for his three games his week. I dropped Brandon Bass to pick up Williams in a couple leagues on Sunday.
Carl Landry Warriors – Landry has benefitted from the absence of Andrew Bogut and I have no idea when we'll see him again. Landry is averaging 15 points and nearly eight rebounds per game, and is showing no signs of slowing down. The Warriors play four times this week.
Markieff Morris & Marcus Morris Suns & Rockets – The twins are both playing well and both deserve a look in deeper leagues. Markieff could potentially start over Luis Scola in Phoenix and had 16 points, two 3-pointers, four boards and two steals in his last game, while Marcus has hit double figures in three of his last four games, highlighted by a 13-point, 3-block effort against the Hornets. Both guys have three games this week and both are worth a potential grab if you need a PF in a deep league. If I had to pick one I'd probably go with Markieff, as he appears to be a slightly better player.
Kevin Seraphin Wizards – Seraphin has been up and down like a yo-yo all season and has had three nice games this season, with four stinkers. His last one was particularly ugly, when he was 3-of-11 for six points, and while he's not reliable enough to be in weekly starting lineups yet, I think he is worth holding in all leagues.
Jared Sullinger Celtics – Sullinger looks like he's going to have a more productive season than Brandon Bass, but hasn't gotten consistent minutes. He had 12 points and 11 boards in 26 minutes on Saturday, making him worth a grab and stash in deep leagues. Just don't be surprised if he continues to struggle going forward. He's scored six or less points in every game this season, except for Saturday's breakout. Hopefully that's the start of a run for the rookie, who has just three games this week.
Derrick Favors Jazz – Favors was a surprise starter on Saturday and was already a must-own player in most leagues. He had nine points, 10 boards, two steals and three blocks in the start and is worth a starting fantasy job regardless of whether he sticks in the starting five in reality. He's averaging 9.5 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 2.2 blocks on the year. The Jazz have three games this week.
JaVale McGee Nuggets – McGee is starting to come on and is the center to own in Denver, scoring between 12 and 16 points in his last three games and averaging 15 points, nearly six boards and nearly three blocks over that stretch. He's coming off the bench, so he's likely to be inconsistent, but he's worth owning (and starting) for the blocks alone. The Nuggets play four times this week.
Nikola Vucevic Magic – Vucevic has hit double figures in scoring in all but two games this season and has posted five double-doubles this season, including three straight. He's playing well enough that he should be owned in all fantasy leagues and has four games this week.
Samuel Dalembert Bucks – Dalembert got off to a terrible start but appears to be back on Scott Skiles' good side. He had a season-high 15 points, eight boards and a block on Saturday, and has scored 15, 14, 8 and 14 points in his last four games. If you're holding Larry Sanders, dumping him for Sammy, who is heating up, makes sense. But do I trust Skiles? Nope.
Andre Drummond Pistons – Drummond is too inconsistent to be an automatic fantasy starter and may not be worth owning in 12-team daily leagues. But he's getting better every week and will quickly become a must-own player once Lawrence Frank turns him loose. He's averaging just 15 minutes per game, so he's a guy owners will simply want to keep a close eye on going forward.
Brendan Haywood Bobcats – Haywood is quietly averaging 7.4 points, 7.6 rebounds and 0.9 blocks per game this season. If you're in a deep league and looking for a four-game starter at center, Haywood might be worth a look.
Lavoy Allen Sixers – Allen is averaging 12 points, seven rebounds and 1.5 blocks over his last two games, ironically coming off the bench in both of them after making four straight starts. Andrew Bynum's not coming back anytime soon and Spencer Hawes has been very inconsistent. I'm not racing out to pick up Allen, but am keeping an eye on him to see if he can keep it going.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va.
– The 15th-ranked Duke women's soccer team continued its winning ways in Charlottesville, Va., on Sunday as the third-seeded Blue Devils upset second-ranked Virginia, 3-1, at Klockner Stadium. Duke moved to 6-0 all-time in NCAA Tournament action in Charlottesville and 4-0 versus the Cavaliers.
Duke redshirt junior
Kim DeCesare
scored two goals on Sunday and four in two games over the weekend at Virginia to lift the Blue Devils into the NCAA Elite Eight for the fourth time over the last six years. The Blue Devils will next play at No. 1 seed Penn State on Friday, Nov. 23 for the chance to advance to the NCAA College Cup.
"It was a tale of two halves," said Duke head coach
Robbie Church
. "Obviously, we came out getting the first couple of goals. Not just the first goal, but the second goal was really key for us. Anytime in NCAA play, the first goal is key for momentum, it is a big goal – almost like a double-goal. It gives your team energy to play."
Like the Blue Devils have done from the beginning of the NCAA Tournament, Duke came out on the attack as
Mollie Pathman
took the first Blue Devil shot in the opening five minutes, but it was blocked.
Duke kept attacking and at the 8:10 mark, the Blue Devils scored their 11th goal of the NCAAs to take a 1-0 advantage. Freshman
Cassie Pecht
fed a streaking junior
Laura Weinberg
down the left side of the pitch, where Weinberg used her left foot to send a perfect cross into the box.
Weinberg's cross went to the head of DeCesare, who placed in her sixth header goal of the season and 15th tally of the year. The assist for Pecht was her NCAA-best 15th of the season.
"We always like to get one real early to put them on their heels," said DeCesare. "Laura had a great cross and I was fortunate to get on the end of it."
The Blue Devils stayed on the attack and attempted six out of the next seven shots before junior
Kaitlyn Kerr
sent a long cross in front of the Cavalier goal, where it settled at the feet of Pathman. A native of Durham, N.C., Pathman blasted a right-footed shot that went past Virginia goalkeeper Danielle DeLisle for her first goal of the 2012 campaign at the 37:40 mark.
At the end of the first half, Duke held a 2-0 lead and outshot the Cavaliers, 9-3. Weinberg led the Blue Devils with three attempts, while Kerr, DeCesare and Pathman each tallied two each.
Virginia came out in the second half and was the aggressor. It paid off for the Cavaliers as they notched a goal in the 51st minute to cut the Blue Devil lead to 2-1. Danielle Colaprico crossed it to Caroline Miller, who one-timed in her 20th goal of the season.
"We knew that Virginia was going to come out at us in the second half," said Church. "They have always been very strong in that segment in the first 15-20 minutes. We were scrambling, holding on for our dear lives for a little while. We had to change our formation and personnel. We settled down and defended very well."
The Cavaliers kept putting the pressure all through the second half and the Blue Devils held strong as Virginia would end up outshooting Duke, 11-5, over the final 45 minutes. Duke finally was able to get a couple of shots off late in the match and finished off the match at the 88:37 mark with DeCesare's second goal of the contest.
Weinberg and Kerr set DeCesare up with a one-v-one opportunity at the top right of the box. A native of Massapequa Park, N.Y., DeCesare brought DeLisle out from the goal and she slipped the tally into the wide open net to put Duke ahead 3-1. DeCesare scored her fourth goal of the 2012 NCAA Tournament and the sixth of her career in NCAA action. She also notched a Duke single-season record with her fifth match with multi-goals this year.
Both Kerr and Weinberg added two assists on the night for the Blue Devils, while Weinberg finished the weekend at Virginia with four assists and a goal.
"In the first half, I thought we attacked great as a team," said Church. "The second half I thought we defended well as a team. Of course, the counter goal at the end -- I was very happy to see that roll in."
For the match, both Duke and Virginia finished with 14 shots each. The Blue Devils were led by Weinberg and DeCesare's four shots each. Duke now owns a single-season record with 207 points this season and is two goals away from the school record as the Blue Devils own 65 through 22 matches. The Blue Devils also set a single-season assist record with 77.
"It was the first time we actually had a look at goal in about 10 minutes," said DeCesare. "Once Kaitlyn played the great ball, the keeper came out and I saw a look at the goal. I figured I might as well take a shot instead of taking it to the corner. When I saw the opportunity I took it."
Tara Campbell
collected five saves in goal for the Blue Devils over 90 minutes of action, while DeLisle added four stops. Campbell, who is out of Cincinnati, Ohio, registered her 54th career victory in goal at Duke.
Laura Weinberg
increased her single-season points record to 44 with her two assists on the night.
Kim DeCesare
now owns 38 points, which is fourth on Duke's points list.
Kim DeCesare
's 16 goals on the year ranks tied for second on Duke's single-season list.
Laura Weinberg
now owns 12 assists on the season to rank tied for third on the Duke single-season chart, while
Cassie Pecht
increased her total to 15.
• With her 27 points this season,
Cassie Pecht
ranks tied for second on Duke's single-season freshman points list.
• Duke improved to 14-0 this season when scoring three or more goals.

NEW YORK - The Columbia men's soccer team will host the 14th-ranked Cornell Big Red Saturday in its final regular-season matchup of the 2012 season. Prior to the 7 p.m. contest, the Lions will honor its five seniors: Ifiok Akpandak, Quentin Grigsby, Brendan O'Hearn, Nick Scott and Will Young.
The Lions will have the opportunity to play the role of spoiler, as Cornell enters Saturday's game as one of three teams still in contention for the Ivy League title. The Big Red has 15 points, one ahead of second-place Brown and three up on Dartmouth. A total of seven scenarios remain to crown the Ivy League champion(s), with the automatic NCAA bid possibly being decided by way of tiebreaker.
Columbia's focus will be solely on the match against Cornell at the Columbia Soccer Stadium. The Lions are coming off a well-earned 1-0 victory on the road at Harvard this past Saturday. Kyle Jackson earned his third shutout of the season and fourth Ivy League Rookie of the Week honor following a six-save performance, while Grigsby notched the game-winner in the 37th minute.
Defensively, the Lions have been one of the hardest teams to score on of late. Over its last six contests, Columbia has only surrendered four goals, while also shutting out Penn, Princeton and Harvard. The Lions lone loss in that stretch was a 2-1 decision against Dartmouth, as Columbia has a 2-1-3 mark since Oct. 6.
Cornell comes into Saturday's game with a 14-1 overall mark and 5-1 record in Ivy League action. The Big Red's only blemish came on the road at Brown on Oct. 20 when the Bears topped Cornell 2-0. Since then, Cornell has defeated Princeton (1-0) and Dartmouth (2-1, ot) to remain atop the Ivy League standings.
The Big Red boasts one of the nation's top offensive threats in Daniel Haber. The junior is currently the nation's leader in points per game at 2.73. Haber has tallied 41 points (second nationally) on 17 goals (third) and seven assist in 15 games this season.
In a series that dates back to 1908, the Lions hold the all-time series lead, 31-19-9. Each of the last two meetings have ended in a stalemate, with the Lions last win against Cornell coming in the season finale of the 2008 campaign.

As Democrats in nearly every Merrimack Valley community held their respective caucuses Saturday, an exercise to pick delegates for July's state Democratic Party nominating convention, there was buzz in the air as to whether to go North Shore or South Shore, Malden or South Boston, Edward Markey or Stephen Lynch.
In a little less than two months, we will know whether Malden's U.S. congressman, Markey, or South Boston's, Lynch, will be the Democratic candidate selected to try and succeed former U.S. Sen. John Kerry.
In Lowell, Centralville's East End Social Club attracted a modest crowd of about 40 residents Saturday morning as signature gatherers for both candidates greeted attendees at the door. Kim Burleigh, a recording secretary for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Engineers Local 2321, was busy gathering signatures for Lynch, but said it's "never bad to have two good choices."
Burleigh said her union roots fit in line with Lynch's blue-collar background. Lynch, a South Boston native raised in the neighborhood's Old Colony Housing Project, is noted for being elected at age 30 to the executive board of the Iron Workers Local 7 union.
"He's been where I've been," Burleigh said, adding that she's seeing strong support building for Lynch in Greater Lowell.
Paul Sweeney, meanwhile, stood nearby collecting signatures and wearing a Markey pin.
In a similar parallel to the current race brewing, 1978 saw the late Lowellian U.S. Sen. Paul Tsongas vacate his 5th Congressional District seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in order to make his successful run for Senate.
John Markey finished fourth that year in his run for Tsongas' old seat and Sweeney said he's since kept an eye on Ed Markey's progress in the U.S. House ever since.
Sweeney moved to Lowell 38 years ago. One year after Sweeney moved to the Merrimack Valley, Ed Markey would win and later maintain his current seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, making him the longest-serving member of New England's House delegation.
Sweeney said he thinks Lowell might be split right down the middle when it comes to Lynch and Markey. Democratic Lowell state Rep. David Nangle agreed. Nangle, who supports Lynch, said one of the South Boston candidate's strengths in the Merrimack Valley is his blue-collar roots.
"He's so well known in his home community because he's always there," said Nangle.
Fellow Democratic state Rep. Tom Golden, whose district includes Lowell and parts of Chelmsford, is also supporting Lynch, as does former Lowell state Sen. Steven Panagiotakos.
In Tewksbury, Democratic Committee Chairman Warren Carey said it was still too early to gauge which candidate might have more support. Carey, who presided over Tewksbury's caucus on Saturday, said the topic of the upcoming primary was only mentioned in passing during his program.
"I feel when it's an inter-party thing, it's hard to get involved before it takes place," he said, noting that both camps are still in the process of gathering enough signatures to get on the ballot. "We did mention it a little, but it's too early right now."
In Littleton, Acton state Sen. Jamie Eldridge spoke Saturday in front of that community's Democratic caucus and said he'd be backing Markey. Eldridge praised Markey for his work on climate change and other environmental issues, while calling him a "thoughtful, progressive lawmaker who can help close corporate tax loopholes and cut sales tax."
The caucus drew about 15 residents.
Democratic State Committee member Kate Donahue asked attendees to raise their hand if they supported Markey, and after every resident raised a hand, she warned that the support in the room would not necessarily translate to the rest of Littleton.
"It's a short campaign season and we really need to get out there and work," she said.

Today's Blind Items - They Stole Her Money
They used to be the best of friends. They would do everything together. Two acting couples that would meet up once or twice a week for dinner or movies or just drinks. One is an A+ list couple consisting of an A+ list mostly movie actor and his actress wife. The other couple consists of straight B listers. It didn't matter because they got along and you could not get the couples to not hang out, they were that close. At one point, the two couples decided to work on a movie together. The A listers took charge of the project even though it was the idea of the B lister. She had never worked on anything like this or her new capacity so was willing to let them take the lead. Everything was great during filming and the movie became a big hit. Huge. The B listers assumed they were going to get rich and get to work on a bunch of other personal projects. One tiny problem. The A listers had structured everything so they cleaned up and made most of the money to be had. Something like 75%. Our B listers had to settle for about 5% and they were told it should have been way more, but they signed things the A lister told them to sign. Since that time, the couples never speak. Not a word. If they run into each other at a red carpet, it is a grimaced expression and they move on. Apparently this is something the A listers do frequently with other people who have good ideas.

In this post we would like to introduce the latest version of the IBM Storage Driver for OpenStack, which we released on January 31st, 2013.
If by any chance you are unfamiliar with OpenStack, check out the official OpenStack project website at: www.openstack.org
To put in a few words, OpenStack is an open-source software platform for building private and public cloud environments. The IBM driver is a software component that enables storage provisioning of the IBM XIV Storage Systems in OpenStack cloud environments.
The latest IBM driver version was preceded by an earlier one (1.1.0), which enabled basic storage provisioning operations, such as volume creation and deletion from OpenStack Cinder Node, and volume attachment to OpenStack VMs.
The new release (1.1.1) further enhances the integration between OpenStack and IBM XIV Storage System by adding support for XIV volume snapshot functions.
An additional ease-of-use enhancement in version 1.1.1 is the new unattended installation option, allowing no user interaction during the installation, perfect for automating the installation process. You can use the following command format to install the IBM driver in an unattended mode:
Cinder-node# ./install.sh –s –a <xiv_address> –u <username> –p <password> –o <pool_name>
The IBM Storage Driver for OpenStack can be downloaded here along with the Installation Guide and Release Notes.
Whenever you choose to integrate your IBM XIV Storage System with an OpenStack cloud environment, our driver is available to help you achieve this goal. We are happy to provide this newer version that further facilitates and enhances the utilization of your XIV storage resources and capabilities in your cloud environment.
As always, you are welcome to share your thoughts with us.

I get the ocassional dual feed, but usually only when RTing a lot. I did remember trying to use this some time back on one of my TL bodies and having some issues with double feeding, which seems to cause it to stop working and blink at me, etc. Last night I was trying to use it on a Pnuemag that I have with a single detent, and kept getting double feeds and the blinking lights on the Halo. When I switch to my nonV35 loader I didnt have the same issues. I tried using the detent with the thinner o-ring and screwing it in tighter, but it just doesn't seem to be able to keep it from happening. Anyone else ever notice this? I did turn the HBV35 down to the lowest feed setting, but still no dice. It locks up within a short time and breaks like crazy.

Sponsored by Tennis (men)
The Luther men's tennis team traveled to Michigan for its toughest weekend of the season, opening a three match stretch against Case Western, the No. 7 ranked team in the nation. The match was held at the DeWitt Tennis Center on the campus of Hope College in Holland, Michigan. The Norse hung around in several of the matches, ultimately falling 7-2 to the Spartans.
Case Western tallied the first point of the match at No. 3 doubles where Will Drougas and Eric Klawitter defeated Luther's Sean Brown and Samuel Cychosz by an (8-1) score. Nick Mozena and James Ayer picked up the first point for the Norse with an (8-5) victory at No. 2 doubles. Ramesh Karki and Quinn Foley fell behind 0-4 early on at No. 1 doubles, but rallied back within 4-6 with game points to get back on serve before finally dropping an (8-4) decision.
Ayer continued his strong play with a victory at No. 5 singles. He overcame a slow start to win (1-6, 6-2, (10-7)), his third straight singles victory that was decided by a third set super tie-breaker. Karki led 5-3 in his first set at No. 1 against Drougas, a 2012 NCAA Singles Qualifier, but came out on the short end of a (7-5, 6-2) result. The Spartans won the other four matches in straight sets to earn the team victory.

In my family we are dog people. We have always had dogs, from growing up to now. My sister has a little dog that she loves to carry around and spoil, her little "Wuffy". She does not have any kids at this point in her life so her dog is her baby. Well I was given the chance to review a really cute dog bouquet from 1-800 Flowers. When I saw this bouquet the first thing that came to my mind was "Wuffy"! It looks just like her, so I decided to surprise my sister with a bouquet that looked just like her baby. She called me when it arrived and said that she could not believe how cute this bouquet was. She said that it was the cutest bouquet of flowers she had ever seen. The arrangement was beautiful, so bright and colorful!! She sent me a picture of it and said that the picture she sent does not do the bouquet she got justice!!! Now her boyfriend knows what to get her next time he is in the dog house, so to say!

it has a faster recharge rate, only is reccomended to run on HPA (nitro, lol) it is much lighter than an RT Valve or minimag valve, as well.
btw, no caps lock.
man, good thing this page is stickied, i love those diagrams
nitro = NITROgen not NOS YO lol im no noob
is the xvalve the fastest out of the valves? is it worth buying? it is rather freaking expensive, (more than my minimag)
the x-valve is the fastest AGD valve i believe. Its also light weight and looks sweet. Just pick up a used one, you know how reliable AGD products are.
I love my ReTro LOL!! stainless FTWOriginally Posted by nate2k191
not sure if this is the right place to ask questions but... the guy before me did so i will too..
here is a pic of my mag now i need to know if i need the Regular or Reversed bolt.
ALSO doesnt it come w/the LVL:10 in it?
reversed bolt? im not sure what you mean. There are reversed valves (the air connects on the oppposite side), but i haven't heard of a reversed bolt.
Also the mag in the picture does not have an x-valve. It might have a level 10 if someone has installed one on it; otherwise you'd need to buy a level 10 bolt and install it.
airgun.com and it says choose or w/e and theres two that you choose from or something for the X- Valve or w/e it is
ALso i ment like at airgun.com dont it come stock w/ a lvl 10 in it?
I am assuming that the part labled # 5 is the shim that you add more of to shoot faster. Is it very hard to get to this area. I have a new tac one and would like to shorten the trigger pull so I do not short stroke it as much.
no, no, #5 is the shim that deals with the Level 10. The shims that change trigger pull are in the ULT (on/off)Originally Posted by bersly
hey, sorry my gif's were down - everything is back up now.
STICKY once more please!
please STICKY
I hate searching for this thread
Does the ULT come with the Xvalve?
How does the intelli frame work?
Sorry to sound stupid but, can someone please explain.
What is the potential (bps) with the Xvalve, ULT and IntelliFrame?
ULT does not come on a standard x-valve, but i think it comes with a Tac-One marker from AGDOriginally Posted by Tig
Intelliframe has a switch in it (that you install) and you link it to your electric hopper, so when you pull the trigger the hopper spins - meaning whenever you shoot, the balls will be feeding.
you can get 'bounce' or rapid fire with a mech gun (up to 15-20bps) with high input pressure. It is illegal at most fields tho. With just semi, no bounce, you can shoot pretty fast as well, depending on how much you mod your trigger, you can get up to probably 5-10bps.
---- Sticky! ----
/need to pm a mod.
Thanks for all the info Nate, I appreciate it.
This is the only pic I've ever seen of a ULT, had to search for it.
BTW, that pic is outdated, here's an X-valve:
Nice exploded view Nate.

What is a QEV?
I understand that MPA-3 is a part# for the Clippard cylinder.
refering to the pnuematic-triggered mag diagram.
Can a lvl 7 bolt be used with parts 3-10?
Is an X Valve compatible with parts 11-14?
No and No.Originally Posted by derfalpha
No and Yes?Originally Posted by RogueFactor
The X valve can use a level 7 bolt and its parts (11-14), it's just not standard. The level 10 bolt doesn't work with 11-14, and you can't use a level 7 bolt with 3-10.
Right, Rogue?
sticky this thread! just for the diagrams alone.
Gah, if only this had come up a few days ago. I looked all over of an animation of how mags work. Luckily, the good guys on MCB gave me one, but these are much better. Good thread for a mag noob!

This very cute giraffe is made of beads and metal. These beautiful collectible art pieces are handmade with glass beads on galvanized wire so they can go inside or outside! Made by the craft of wire bending to create unique and intricately beaded sculptures. This process of wire bending is an intricate and difficult art, requiring great strength and skill. Once a frame has been made, it is woven with a rainbow of colorful beads. All their wire is galvanized and the beads are glass. They make excellent gifts for any occasion and are truly a unique piece of art you won't find anywhere else!
Due to the handcrafted nature, there may be slight variation in size, shape and color.

Rhode Island, Illinois Legislators Get Marriage Equality Bills
After four states passed gay marriage measures in 2012, lawmakers in Rhode Island and Illinois have introduced bills that could legalize same-sex marriage in 2013.
The Providence Journal reports that State Rep. Arthur Handy (D-Cranston) will introduce legislation that allows same-sex couples to tie the knot in Rhode Island on Thursday. Handy, the measure's longtime sponsor, said the bill has been drafted but needs signatures from co-sponsors, which includes out-gay House Speaker Gordon Fox (D-Providence).
Like other such laws in the states that have legalized same-sex marriage, there are very specific "religious carve outs." The bill's language will grant religious groups protections if they object -- particularly important in one of the nation's most heavily Roman Catholic states.
A 2011 version of the legislation cited the First Amendment. It stated that every religious institution has "exclusive control over its own religious doctrine, policy, and teachings regarding who may marry within their faith, and on what terms."
It went on to state, "No court or other state or local governmental body, entity, agency or commission shall compel, prevent, or interfere in any way with any religious institution's decisions about marriage eligibility within that particular faith's tradition" and that "ordained clergy, ministers or elders [...] shall not be obligated or otherwise required by law to officiate at any particular civil marriage or religious rite of marriage."
If lawmakers pass the revised bill, Rhode Island would be the 10th state to recognize marriage equality. It is also the last domino in New England. With the passage last November in Maine, all five other states -- plus New York just south of New England -- have marriage equality enshrined as law.
Bipartisan Support in Illinois
Same-sex couples in Illinois may also be allowed to marry this year. A new bill to legalize same-sex marriage in the state will go before a State Senate committee. CBS Chicago reported that supporters include famous Illinois personages such as President Barack Obama and actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson of "Modern Family."
"I am looking forward to raising a family and having our kids grow up in an equal America," Ferguson said.
Illinois Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon said she is "optimistic" that lawmakers, who approved civil unions in the state 18 months ago, will pass the bill and that she is "pleased to be part of the effort." Like Rhode Island's measure, the Illinois legislation will also include language that protects religious institutions, according to Democrat Sen. Heather Steans.
Cardinal Francis George, the influential Roman Catholic archbishop of Chicago, vehemently opposes the bill and is fighting to block it as he has sent out a letter urging Catholics to stop the gay marriage bill. "The state has no power to create something that nature itself tells us is impossible," he said in a statement.
The Senate committee will hear the proposed legislation on Wednesday. It will then go to the full Senate later this week.
There was a dramatic development on Wednesday, when the Illinois Republican Party Chairman Pat Brady called on fellow GOP lawmakers to support the bill. Although Brady specified that he was making the statement as a private citizen, no one in party-conscious Illinois could have mistaken his message.
As happened in New York State, when the head of the state's GOP released his delegates to vote their conscience, this will allow Republican lawmakers from relatively moderate or liberal-leaning districts to vote for marriage equality.
The National Organization for Marriage is mounting a furious campaign in the state. The group apparently sees its window rapidly narrowing.

Last minute deal averts fiscal cliff
A final deal was made in Washington to avert some of the fiscal tax issues facing the country on the first day of 2013. Locally, the deadline was stressful for many as a deal was being left until the last minute. Many individuals including local accountant Stanley Serck waited and waited to see what was going to happen. Serck depends on these decisions because he has to stay on top of these decisions for his accounting firm. "It was frustrating they had to wait until the last minute to make a deal," Serck said. Serck said he was staying up on New Year's Eve hoping for a deal. He had to wait another day for Congress to pass and agree on a bill. While some taxes will not increase, others will. According to an Associated Press report some payroll taxes will be going up two percent because the legislation did nothing to prevent a temporary reduction in the Social Security payroll tax from expiring. In 2012, that 2-percentage-point cut in the payroll tax amounts about $1,000 to a worker making $50,000 a year. Households making between $40,000 and $50,000 will face an average tax increase of $579 in 2013, according to the Tax Policy Center's analysis. Households making between $50,000 and $75,000 will face an average tax increase of $822. "For most people, it's just the payroll tax," said Roberton Williams, a senior fellow at the Tax Policy Center. The report continues to say the tax increases could be a lot higher. A huge package of tax cuts first enacted under President George W. Bush was scheduled to expire Tuesday as part of the "fiscal�cliff." The Bush-era tax cuts lowered taxes for families at every income level, reduced investment taxes and the estate tax, and enhanced a number of tax credits, including a $1,000-per-child credit. The package passed Tuesday by the Senate and House extends most the Bush-era tax cuts for individuals making less than $400,000 and married couples making less than $450,000. "This deal protects 98 percent of Americans and 97 percent of small business owners from a middle-class tax hike. While neither Democrats nor Republicans got everything they wanted, this agreement is the right thing to do for our country." Obama said. Social Security is financed by a 12.4 percent tax on wages up to $113,700, with employers paying half and workers paying the other half. Obama and Congress reduced the share paid by workers from 6.2 percent to 4.2 percent for 2011 and 2012, saving a typical family about $1,000 a year. The new tax package would increase the income tax rate from 35 percent to 39.6 percent on income above $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for married couples. Investment taxes would increase for people who fall in the new top tax bracket. High-income families will also pay higher taxes this year as part of Obama's 2010 health care law. As part of that law, a new 3.8 percent tax is being imposed on investment income for individuals making more than $200,000 a year and couples making more than $250,000. Together, the new tax package and Obama's health care law will produce significant tax increases for many high-income families. For 2013, households making between $500,000 and $1 million would get an average tax increase of $14,812, according to the Tax Policy Center analysis. Households making more than $1 million would get an average tax increase of $170,341. "If you're rich, you're almost certain to get a big tax increase," Williams said.
