The nation was brought together in mourning last December when 26 people, including 20 children, were shot and killed at a Connecticut elementary school.
The nation was brought together in mourning last December when 26 people, including 20 children, were shot and killed at a Connecticut elementary school.
It was the second deadliest shooting in American history, prompting press conferences and policy suggestions aimed at preventing another such massacre.
The National Rifle Association made the largest waves when, in response to Sandy Hook, the lobbying group's Executive Vice President and CEO Wayne LaPierre called for armed police officers posted in every school.
"The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun," LaPierre said at a press conference, "is a good guy with a gun."
From armed guards to arming teachers themselves, the question of what can and should be done to better protect students elicits strong responses. What is prudent and feasible remains subject to much debate in legislatures across the country.
South Dakota's state government has been quickest to move on the NRA's suggestion, enacting a law to allow school employees, hired security personnel or volunteers who complete a training program to carry firearms in schools.
Similar bills have been proposed in the Missouri House of Representatives this session. House Bill 70 would allow any teacher or school administrator with a valid concealed carry permit to possess firearms on school grounds without consent of school boards. Another, HB 276, aims to create voluntary "school protection officer" designations that, with completion of a training program and district approval, would allow the "officers" to carry weapons on school grounds and detain anyone he or she believes has violated state laws or school policies.
Dr. Kathleen Nolan, a program associate and lecturer at Princeton University who has extensively studied police presence in schools, disagrees with such proposed legislation.
"It's an irresponsible, knee-jerk reaction to the fear we are all experiencing. I think it's frightening, the idea of putting arms in teachers hands. First, it's impossible to ensure school personnel have the proper training, but perhaps even more importantly schools personnel and teachers lack the experience. No one knows how they will respond in a situation with a crazed gunman," Nolan said.
Rolla Police Chief Mark Kearse said he can understand how arming teachers can bring "a whole new set of problems and concerns."
However, he said his personal opinion is that there is some validity to the idea of arming teachers who have certain military training or experience. Kearse said it would take some "deep thinking" by school officials to make such a decision regarding whether or not to arm teachers.
The Missouri bills are different from the School Resource Officer program, which currently has about 210 dues-paying members in Missouri and more than 10,000 nationally. SROs are commissioned police officers with additional training in the organization's "triad" of responsibilities: teacher, counselor and law enforcement officer.
"As police officers, we're teachers and we're counselors. The school resource officer puts on different hats and for, say, poverty-stricken kids, we're also that connecting link between them and the Department of Social Services, or the local health department," said Union, Mo. Police Officer Rod Tappe, vice president of the Missouri School Resource Officer Association Board and SRO at the Union R-XI School District.
Mo Cannady, executive director of National Association of School Resource Officers, advocates for SRO or school-based policing programs, "not just something that puts an armed guard in the school."
"We don't feel that is a long-term solution," Cannady said.
"You have buildings filled with lots of children and when you have a situation of a shooter in a building like that, the good guy needs to be more than just a private citizen."
Implementation of an SRO program at schools nationwide is estimated to cost between $2-$3 billion, while in Missouri, where schools are currently underfunded by about $600 million, the estimate is $100 million in added expenses.
Sgt. Wayne Rapier, of the RPD, serves as the only SRO for the entire Rolla School District. The district pays for 75 percent of his expenses while the City of Rolla/RPD pays for the remaining 25 percent.
The school district furnishes Rapier with an office, computer and cellphone, while the RPD furnishes him with a vehicle, training and pays for overtime.
"It's been a big help for the schools and for us (police department)," Kearse said. "He (Rapier) is in the schools and knows the teachers and children and builds bonds with them." Rapier also attends school functions and meetings to keep up to date.
Kearse said he would like to have at least three SROs in the district, if not more, but understands that school districts are facing budget constraints.
"If money wasn't always an issue, I'd like to see (funding from state and federal government for) better security, locks on doors, fencing and it'd nice to have a resource officer in every school," the police chief said.
Cannady acknowledges cost considerations make an SRO an unrealistic solution for some districts and supports communities being able to make decisions for themselves, as opposed to action by the federal or state government. Both the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and Missouri School Boards Associations referred questions to the Missouri Center for Education Safety, a public-private partnership between the Missouri Department of Public Safety, the Office of Homeland Security and MSBA, which shared that sentiment.
"It needs to be a local decision by the school boards and they need to make sure they have good input and have good discussions with public safety officials and teachers and do this with eyes wide open," Executive Director Paul Fennewald said.
The National Association of School Psychologists issued a report in January advising schools to focus on security solutions such as building entrances, hallway monitoring and better check-in and check-out systems for visitors. It also recommends increasing mental health services and supports in schools, advising a ratio of one counselor for every 250 students, one school psychologist for every 500-700 students and one school social worker for every 400 students.
Nolan believes most schools are not meeting those targets and said even those ratios fall short of what is needed, arguing that more attention is needed for "subtle" discipline problems, such as bullying, as well as mental health issues, all of which can be precursors to violence.
"Some forms are subtle and it's apparent that school administrators and teachers are not picking up on how pugnacious this is," she said.
"Students who are alienated and not getting necessary attention and support, with mental health issues going unrecognized, can end up being the shooters," she said.
A 2010 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report on violence stated the odds of a person ages 5-18 being victim of a homicide at school, on their way to school, or at a school-sponsored event was 1 in 2.5 million. The last time a Missouri student died in a school shooting was at Parkway South Junior High in 1983, when according to the Associated Press a case of bullying resulted in a murder-suicide.
Since then, hundreds of others have died from other causes, Fennewald said, including lack of working smoke detectors, drinking and driving and lack of seatbelt use.
"Let's take a holistic view of this," he said. "How are our children dying? [...] There are a lot of other things if we want to focus on student safety, things we can do to make our communities safer without putting more resource officers in our schools."
The NRA did not respond to repeated requests for comment on this story.

With the 2013 Video Music Awards now in our rear view, it's time to take a thoughtful, considered look back at some of the evening's high and low points. Miley Cyrus doing serious damage to her career with her Madonna-at-a-plushie-convention routine! Daft Punk acting like expressionless robots long after the idea ceased to be novel! Robin Thicke, with a big foam finger pointing at his privates, in case anybody wasn't sure where they were! Oh, the times we had.
Some highlights:
Most necessary reinvention: Kanye West, who needed to be seen as a thoughtful artist after months of Kardashian-related PR shenanigans.
Least necessary reinvention: The beloved Moonman statue, who now has X's for eyes, and looks chubbier, somehow.
Best foreshadowing: "I really wanted to win the Best Rap video," admitted Macklemore, upon winning Best Video With a Social Message for "Same Love." Then he did. Crazy!
People we're pleasantly surprised to learn are still alive, part one: Lil' Kim
People we're pleasantly surprised to learn are still alive, part two: The other members of 'N Sync
Most endearing doofuses: Macklemore and Ryan Lewis
Least endearing doofus: Robin Thicke, who seemed like one of those creepy old Times Square peepshow viewers during Miley's performance. The ones that have newspapers folded on their laps.
Number of shots of Bruno Mars looking sad while wearing a fedora: One
Number of cuts to Miley's mom, Tish Cyrus, looking strangely approving of her daughter's awkwardly sexualized acting out: One
Reasons why her daughter's awkwardly sexualized acting out suddenly starts to make a lot more sense: See above
Number of times the camera cut to Rihanna looking downcast, because being Rihanna is not that fun, sometimes: Lost count after four
Number of times the camera cut to One Direction looking bored and chewing gum while someone more talented was doing something worthwhile and artistic: So, so many. Ten, maybe?
Greatest dedication to her craft: Katy Perry, who wore the evening's dorkiest outfit (an unflattering pair of boxing shorts, and braids), spit into a spit bucket (it was made of gold, you guys), and still managed to seem awesome in ways she previously had not.
Most inspiring display of selflessness, part one: Taylor Swift, who seemed to be happily singing along to every act onstage, and not in a showy way. Okay, maybe in a slightly showy way.
Most inspiring display of selflessness, part two: Justin Timberlake moving to the back during 'N Sync's number.
Least inspiring display of awards-show hijacking: Justin Timberlake, who let 'N Sync perform for an entire minute before they silently disappeared. He then went onto perform for what seemed like another 47 hours.

The Chillicothe Education Foundation raised between $15,000 and $20,000 at its annual benefit dinner, held at the home of Ed Milbank (CEF Board Director), on Wednesday night.
"That [dollar amount is] pretty normal," said CEF Board President Ed Douglas.
The dinner has been held at Milbank's home for the past 15 years.
"He also very graciously provides all of the food and drink that makes all of this possible," Douglas said.
Douglas noted that the amount raised annually at the CEF-Milbank benefit makes up the Foundation's core funding. He provided that approximately $10,000 is spent annually on the Teacher of the Year awards, $1,500 on the Beacon Awards, close to $2,500 on teacher recruitment, and $3,500 on teacher mini-grants.
In further explaining the teacher recruitment moneys, Douglas said that sometimes, if a worthwhile applicant is being pursued within a pool of candidates for an open position within the district, the education foundation might chip in a small cash bonus to reinforce the applicant's incentive to become a part of the R-2 family.
"Sometimes, that little gesture can be what it takes," he said.
Douglas said that among the foundation's recent achievements were the buying of the 60 acres of land near the Chillicothe High School for possible future district consolidation, as well as taking the lead on the coordination of the new stadium project.
"We've had several towns call and ask how our education foundation works," he said. During Wednesday's festivities, he mentioned Cameron as one of those entities.
Just prior to the evening meal, the group gathered for a few moments to recognize this year's Chillicothe R-2 Teacher of the Year and Beacon Award (support staff) nominees and winners.
Carla Meyers, Career Independence / Career Options Aide and Job Coach at the Grand River Technical School, was recognized as this year's Beacon Award winner. Fellow candidates Mary Lou Wilhoit (CHS and CACE), Janet Abbey (CMS), Amy Hand (Central and BMP), Melody Munson (Field), and Connie Quigley (Dewey and Garrison) were also recognized. Hand and Quigley were absent from the event.
Tim Riekena, Chillicothe Middle School sixth-grade mathematics teacher, was recognized as this year's Chillicothe R-2 Teacher of the Year. Douglas noted that Riekena and his wife, Tami, are only the second husband-wife duo to win the R-2 Teacher of the Year award, behind Dave and Debbie Goodwin.
This year's nominees included: Riekena; Leda Schreiner, representing the Grand River Technical School; Angela Peterson, representing the Chillicothe High School and CACE; Ashley Hawkins, representing Central School and the Behavioral Management Program; Tiffany Acree, representing Field School; and Brooke Wolf, representing Dewey School and Garrison. All were in attendance on Wednesday.
The winners of this year's awards were first announced at an assembly at Gary Dickinson Performing Arts Center, on Dec. 7.
The Chillicothe Education Foundation Board consists of: Ed Douglas, President; Mike Turner, Treasurer; Julie McCoy, Ad Hoc School Board Member; Dr. Roger Barnes, Superintendent; Ron and Roger Wolf, Co-Directors, Grand River Technical School; Mary Staton, Director; Edward P. Milbank, Director; Brenda Fellhoelter, Secretary; Dr. Bruce Brodmerkle, Director; Lindy Chapman, Director; Robin Westphal, Director; and Inger Young, Director.

A Pacific Junction City Councilman is under fire after remarks he made in reference to Mexicans during last Monday's regular council meeting.
Following a request by The Opinion-Tribune for a copy of the audio recording of the meeting, Mayor Jim Lovely played the tape in the Pacific Junction City Hall on Tuesday.
A voice on the recorder, who Lovely identified as Councilman Rodney G. Bents, can be heard saying, "Well, then don't be getting hit by a Mexican up in Omaha."
Another voice, identified as Councilman Andy Young, then replied, "You don't want to be saying that with a recorder around."
Bents is heard replying to Young" I mean it, that's the facts of life."
Lovely said the context of Bents' comments related to a discussion he and councilman Earl Smith had concerning property damage to the city's community center and if the city's insurance would cover the repair costs. As part of that discussion Lovely made an analogy to auto insurance covering your damage should you be hit by an uninsured driver.
Lovely, after reviewing the tape, felt there was "enough of a comment" he referred the tape on to the city attorney, T.J. Patterman. After discussing the comment further with Patterman, Lovely said a formal resolution will be drafted condemning Bents' comments.
Patterman said that he has yet to draft the resolution but he plans to present it to the council at the Sept. 6 meeting. The council will have to read and pass the resolution before it can be entered into the official record.
"It's going to be an assertion by the city that they do not adhere to, abide by or approve any racist comments or remarks and they don't reflect the opinions or position of the city," said Patterman. "I think the council and the major were just as shocked if not more so than anyone else who may have heard them (Bents' comments). The city is taking the position this is not appropriate behavior."
Other than the resolution condemning Bents' remarks, Patterman said there is little else the city can do. The city has no statute covering decorum on what can and cannot be said by council members during public meetings.
"There is not a written policy in the code of ordinance," said Patterman. "Most cities use stock ordinances that are adjusted as necessary. I don't believe there is any written policy saying what's going to happen should someone do something. We're limited to what we can do by the state statutes. This is not something the city council approves of but it's also something we haven't had to deal with before."
Lovely declined to address the specifics of Bents' comments, but the longtime mayor did say: "Neither myself nor my office or the City of Pacific Junction condone this type of attitude towards any minority or majority for that matter. This does not reflect on the City of Pacific Junction or my office. We just don't tolerate that."
Lovely has not spoken to Bents since the meeting.
When reached at home Friday, Bents stood by his statements.
"I don't have a problem at all with what I said," said Bents. "It's all over. I worked for 15 years in Omaha driving a truck and I've been hit a lot and 90 percent of them don't have insurance. They don't."
Bents went on to say "they" was in reference to "The people in Omaha."
When reminded his quote singled out Mexicans and not Omahans, he replied, "That's all that's there driving around Omaha. Maybe you don't know this not driving around Omaha as much as I did but Mexicans are all you see driving."
Bents has served on the council since last year when he filled a mid-term vacancy. He was re-elected in January.
Councilman Young was surprised and offended by Bents' comments
"I felt it was inappropriate and there was no need for it," said Young, who has served on the council for seven years.
Young thinks the city has no choice but to make a resolution condemning Bents' remarks.
"We have to," he said. "I hate to say this phrase but when people do dumb things you have to alienate yourself from it."
Councilman Earl Smith, when reached last week confirmed Bents' statements but declined to comment further.
Other council members Richard Kerres and Patricia Hatcher did not immediately return messages seeking comment.

Posted on September 19, 2012
Yesterday being the 208th birthday of Walter Loomis Newberry, a band of us from the library rode out to Graceland Cemetery to toast him on the occasion, and to thank him for the legacy that led to us having such a smashing Quasquicentennial. Yes, the truth is out: as Walter made his will, he was really thinking, "Someday, they're going to have a wild 125th anniversary." He was a man of vision, was Walter.
By the way, this was accomplished with the full cooperation of Graceland Cemetery, and I would advise you to check with them before you plan any anniversary celebrations of this nature. Graceland rather likes the idea, but would prefer to keep such parties separate from funerals: a little matter of manners, you understand. (If you don't understand, you probably have no connection to anybody at Graceland anyhow.)
Now, the statement was made at the salute that Walter would have enjoyed being there, as a man who thought Chicago had a great future and as a man who liked gathering with an intellectual crowd. (He was contrasted in this regard with his wife, who far preferred Paris, particularly after Chicago burned down in 1871.) I've always wondered. Sure, the Newberry is a great library and has a really spectacular Book Fair, but remember that this was all just a footnote to his plans for the future, which kind of involved grandchildren. His money was to go to build a library only if his two young daughters died childless. Somebody said, in fact, that we ought to be toasting Julia and Mary Newberry too, since, after all, if they'd been a little more assertive on the dating scene, we might not have been raising a glass to their father in the first place.
Still, he's had 125 years to get used to the idea, so instead of worrying about whether he enjoyed the salute (it didn't rain) I've been worrying about the other what ifs in the story.
What if Walter Newberry had NOT died in 1868? He was so interested in education that he would doubtless have supported a library anyhow. But would THAT Newberry Library have been, say, on the campus of Moody Bible Institute? Eliphalet Blatchford, the man who took Walter's money and made the Newberry into a reality, was also very interested in this religious training institution. Might he have talked Walter into endowing a library there?
But Walter was also interested in the notion of a Chicago Public Library. He might, like his widow and children, have been out of town during the Chicago Fire. But he seems the sort who would have thrown himself behind the rebuilding. Maybe his money would have replaced, or at least refurbished, the abandoned water tank we were using for a public library. (See, all these books came from England to start a new library—even though we never had an old one—and the City Council had to put them SOME place. By the way, the Council also had to pick someone to put in charge of them and found a man named William Frederick Poole who, some years later, would become the head man at the Newberry Library. So he and Walter might have had a chance to get together.)
Would Walter Newberry ever consider retirement? Like a lot of retirees, he could have found new interests. He might have followed the scientific discoveries of his age, and turned his mind to, say, a Library of Science and Industry on the North Side, or a Library of Natural History. The Newberry Library and Planetarium? Or perhaps he would have gone further still, thinking in terms of, say, Newberry University.
I, personally, like to think he would have found a compromise among all these opposing currents. "I could," he says in my fantasy, "Put books of all kinds up for sale at reasonable prices and use the money to support libraries all over the city." It would take him a while to find places to rent the tables, and argue down those people who insisted on holding the sale in a tent, but by 1887, he could have sat back and watched the first Newberry Book Fair, and THAT would be the Quasquicentennial we'd be celebrating.
I heard that. Stop snickering. If anybody doubts that the real Walter Loomis Newberry was the kind of person to deal in books, I can only add by way of corroboration the fact that—as far as we know without unearthing a keg of secrets somewhere—Walter Newberry NEVER bought a Kindle.

Bolisetty wins second place in National Student Research Forum
Subhashini Bolisetty, a graduate student in the Cell Biology program, was awarded the best poster presentation in Cell Biology and second place overall at the National Student Research Forum (NSRF) in Galveston, Texas, for her work titled, "Role of Heme Oxygenase-1 in Cesplatin-mediated Autophagy in Kidney Epithelial Cells." Organized and run by students in the sciences, The 50th annual NSRF, held from April 23 - 25, is sponsored by the AMA Foundation.
Bolisetty is one of the Graduate School's Student Spotlights for the month April.
GS: Where are you from?
SB: I was born and raised in India. I came to Birmingham in 2005 to pursue my PhD.
GS: What degree did you/will you receive and when?
SB: I received my B.S degree in Industrial Biotechnology in May 2005. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Cell Biology and I expect to graduate in 2010.
GS: How long have you been at UAB?
SB: I joined the CMB program at UAB in August 2005.
GS: What is your research?
SB: My research focuses on the beneficial effects of site-specific over-expression of Heme Oxygenase-1 (an anti-oxidant protein) in Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). More specifically, I am working on two models of AKI, Ischemia Reperfusion and Cisplatin nephrotoxicity. I am also interested in the role of HO-1 in modulating autophagy in AKI.
GS: What made you choose UAB for your graduate studies?
SB: UAB has top class scientists working in cutting edge areas of biological sciences and provides an excellent environment for students, aspiring to pursue a research career. Also, US News listed the cell biology program at UAB as one of the top 60 biological sciences graduate programs in the USA.
GS: Have you received any awards or honors?
SB: I have received a pre-doctoral grant (award) from the American Heart Association. It is one of the few programs that allow international students to compete for funding.
GS: What has been your most rewarding experience at UAB?
SB: There have been several. One of the most rewarding experiences is to receive a pre-doctoral award that funds my research. It is extremely rewarding when a scientific committee believes in my proposal and potential and bestows upon me such a prestigious award.
GS: Who was your greatest influence here at UAB and why?
SB: There have been several people who influenced me in my research, personal and professional development. My mentor, Dr. Anupam Agarwal and Dr. James George have been great teachers and have played a major role in my overall development. Past and present members of the Agarwal lab have really helped me develop professionally. Another person who influenced me is Dr. Jim Collawn. He is a member of my scientific committee and has always given me immense moral support, believed in my potential and advised me on many circumstances.
GS: What is your motivation in your academics/research?
SB: Acute kidney injury is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. It is often seen in the setting of multiple organ failure in critically ill patients and mortality has remained relatively constant over the past three decades. I am motivated to decrease the mortality rate and provide better therapy to patients suffering from AKI.
GS: Do you have any advice/wisdom for other graduate students?
SB: I would like to quote Erwin Schrödinger, "Thus, the task is, not so much to see what no one has yet seen; but to think what nobody has yet thought, about that which everybody sees."
GS: What are your plans after graduating and for the future?
SB: Many years have passed since my first rendezvous with research and my interest has grown incrementally over the years. I would like to pursue a research career, whether in academia or industry.
GS: Is there anything else you would like to say?
SB: My husband, Sudheer Kancharla and my father, Dr.Brahma Rao have been my motivation, support, courage and guidance. I am proud to have a family that encourages me to achieve my dreams. I will continue to strive to be an asset to the university and the scientific community.

a tight and a wet pussy will do the wonder for me anytime, anywhere and anyday. My number one preference is a slightly-wet-shallow-tight-pussy. while making love to this kind of lady, i will be shouting, you are sweet, ooooh aaaaah you are sweet honey pot.ReplyDelete
but i cannot stand a wide deep puta, i will never cum in it. have meet about two gurls like that, i ended cuming in their mouth because of the sizes of their pussies.
the physical sizes of the ladies in question does not matter. a huge fat lady can be tight. one of those girls with wide pussy i met is smallish in nature but her vijay jay is monstrous.Replies

Amtrak's Vermonter sees reduction in travel time due to improvementsWritten by Jenifer Nunez, assistant editor
Amtrak's Vermonter service will be running on a revised schedule beginning March 18, between St. Albans, Vt. and Washington, D.C., reducing overall travel time by up to 28 minutes.
The shortened travel time is the result of a recently completed two-year, federally-funded program, which provided for the upgrade and repair of a 190-mile stretch of track, signal and other key infrastructure equipment owned and maintained by New England Central Railroad.
"The Vermonter project to upgrade the New England Central Railroad mainline is a great example of a very successful public-private partnership, helping both rail passenger and freight services," said Raymond Goss, Sr., vice president of New England Central Railroad. "This project involved the Vermont Agency of Transportation, the Federal Railroad Administration and the railroad. We are happy to be part of this partnership."
As a result of these improvements, track speeds along the route within Vermont have been increased, from 55 mph to a maximum 59 mph north of White River Junction and from 59 mph to a maximum 79 mph south of that location to the Massachusetts border. Below the Vermont border, track speeds will remain unchanged. These efforts will reduce overall travel time and improve reliability.
"Due to the untiring efforts of our federal, state local partners, this important project was completed in an efficient and timely manner," said Joe McHugh, Amtrak vice president of government affairs and corporate communications. "This work also advances our commitment to provide faster, enhanced intercity rail service to our passengers."

Looks like Gearhead paintball is releasing new Automag bodies.
Looks like Gearhead paintball is releasing new Automag bodies.
Is that an AL. cf TL body ? I feel like a trend setter sometimes
I hope that they have a really low price point.. because they don't look nearly as good as a AGD ule body. That feed neck is pretty awful.
http://www.automags.org/forums/showt...RKM-3D-Designs"You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes." RU
Someone bring over a pic
To leave feedback: Click seller/buyers name, Click feedback score, Click leave feedback
Oh yeah... Didn't notice that. Not knocking new products for Mags but aren't you supposed to try and improve on an existing product?
I am taking a wait and see before bashing. If you look at the 3 bodies side by side not all feedneck look the same. And is it me but Does the feedneck look like it's sitting on the outside/top? Kind of like the spyder necks. Maybe it's removable and you can do a cram and jam, which they make adapters for other markers I believe.
I'm somewhat confused as well.
The normal AGD ULE bodies have that big block in the middle to presumably support the threading of feednecks. And detent.
I guess this thing has the feed neck welded on? If it's not welded, then it's... milled?
I kind of wish anyone designing a new body would like... do it right, from scratch... and not inherit all the legacy design flaws.
"Accuracy by aiming."
Definitely not on the A-Team.
Yeah, I don't get it either. Ugly ULE with weird feedneck? I don't see why anyone would have an issue putting a cram 'n jam on a ULE - there are adapters made. It looks like it has a twistlock retention pin built into the body or something - look carefully at the black one in the background of the picture, just beneath the detent, you can sort of see it on the front one too. Maybe a 3rd detent? Some kind of new twistlock barrel that nobody will make or embrace? Perhaps you modify your existing barrel to account for the detents?
All I can say is those feednecks remind me of the terrible plastic rings on the old USI Raider, which makes me wonder if there's an ugly weld hiding underneath.
Who makes cram and jam adapter for ule bodies, angel threading?
I'd like to have a cram and jam that can be used with ule cf or warp body and can ano too. I don't think it's welded, she mentioned things coming back from ano. Would welding give you different color results on that area?
If you look at the picture that's build marker. You can see that there is no detent on that side, round smooth.
For all we know, that could be a painted steel body with anodized aluminum accents.
I hope nothing on that body is Angel threaded. It's getting harder and harder for me to locate angel threaded detents. I'd rather not have to order my detents every time I need them from a online shop. Cheaper more available detents would be a huge win in my book. Maybe autococker threaded detents?
Video up.
Per the video:
Aluminum body
accepts CCM threaded feedneck
AC threaded barrel
AC detents
I see several machining advantages in this design over the way AGD executed their design.
I do find one thing curious though, does the feed neck have some kind of sleeve around the base?
Per the video. Ugly ugly feed neck.
Read through the comments there, they answer some feedneck and other related questions there.
And I have to add, CCM threads, really?
If you're screwing in to something, Angel seems to be the most common thread pattern in the industry. Anything other than a clamp-on feedneck seems a step backwards.
Last edited by TyeStick; 12-14-2013 at 03:17 AM.
Looks just about like an AGD ULE body except for the stovepipe feedneck.
So whats the advantage (reason anyone would buy) of their product over the AGD ULE body ?
To raise the hopper 2.5 inches above the marker ?
Maybe its half the price, that would be an advantage, poor mans ULE ?
Thanks for posting the video, lets us know they dont even own a mag to test their product on.
"When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty." Thomas Jefferson
i am working on something about the feednecks, so i can take care of the feednecks. that's all i can say right now other than it maintains the angel threads, so its a retrofit for older guns and available for newer.
there is nothing about the bodies on their website, a little disconcerting, with just the "press releases" on MCB. i don't know. i love the fact that someone is seeing that the mag community is still alive and wanting to make parts, but why just there on MCB?
Props to Gearhead for making these. Not a fan of the feed necks or the plastic covers for them, but the way I see it any company deciding there is enough of a market place to do this is a good thing. Very curious about the price point.

Mo. Sen. Munzlinger also backing Senate bill creating technical education board
The area state senator is highlighting February as Career and Technical Education Month by recognizing the benefits of technical schools across the country.
Sen. Brian Munzlinger (R-Williamstown) is also the sponsor of SB17, which would establish the Career and Technical Education Board to oversee and coordinate career and technical education in Missouri.
"We have some great technical institutions in Missouri, and I would like to take this time to thank them for the work they do for our students," Munzlinger said in a press release. "These organizations are crucial to helping students, both secondary and post-secondary, as well as displaced workers, to train for new or different skills as technology changes."

How many girls are registered AO members? I was just curious because my girlfriend wants to start playing and I have not played with many girls before.

Hummm good question, where are the paintball she tigers??
I'm a swedish bikini model.
Don't quite fit into the "female" category though.

At my last count...2
Lizza and Sarah are the only *true* female AO members, but a bunch of guys had all their wives and girlfriends register to give them a better chance in that drawing a few weeks back.
My reasoning? Most girls have no interest in actually playing the sport as a hobby. You always see a couple at the rec fields who want to try it out, but for the most part they don't get into it like guys. They're afraid to shoot, they run away, they are terrified of getting hit. I'm not trying to look like a jerk here, it's simply what I've observed over my past few years in paintball.
My guess is, out of everyone who tries paintball, 15% of those people is female. About 10% of the females that try paintball actually gets into it, so about 1.5% of all paintball players are female -- leaving 98.5% to be male. It's a complete estimate, but it sounds accurate to me.
I've seen 10% females in the sport on numerous websites, but experience doesn't quite back that up. I'd go for 5%, though.
Then again, there are a few female regulars at the field I go to, including those from Fallen Angels, so hey...

On average, I see one or two women every time I play a pickup game.
I have yet to see a really good offense female player (then again, IMHO only about 1 in 10 male players play good offense), but it has been my experience that women players, even beginners, are tenacious defense players. They find the best defensive positions and they are fearless. Often the only way to get them out is to bunker them (I try to avoid that at all costs) or get a difficult shot on their hopper or barrel.
More power to you ladies.
We have 2 girl players in our group. One of them is trying to put together an all girl team. Any girls out there in the Pensacola area interested drop me an email.
HeyHey.. I play offence. I'm really short.. (well, almost 14 and about 5'3", short to everyone else out on the team) and real quick so I'm usually up front getting pulls or hangs.
But, I am known at firelds for being able to play where ever someone puts me.

Hmm let me take a shot in the dark. Flamebo and automagkid are real ladiesmen. I somehow think they don't have girlfriends and won't for a LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG time.

My Girl plays and she loves it. And trust me she has never run away in a game. She is an MP in the army, she is good in a fight too. Her second time playing we were at this place that had a 10 ft rule and some guy kid shot her from about your screen to you..... she ran after him and hit him with her tank(it is a steel on not a carbon fiber)! She is awesome!
Hey, quiet you! I keep my girls on the side.Originally posted by X-Plosive:

Hehe, I just read Lizza's article. I guess next time I see a girl on the field, I'll have to bunker her real good to prove that I'm all for equal opportunity.

we should start another topic.. how tall are you.. well im 14 and a respective 6'2
I got my girlfriend in Paintball. She likes it. Uses a 98 and my Blazer and now my mag every so often. As for I3 Ug sorry nick he is not your known swede biniki model. He is more like the agent or stalker. You make the call. However nick is a nice guy though.
Paintball cannot be that big. No one has really been able to sponsor a stock car or a race yet. (local people do not count in this case )
nice article lizza. one note though i would think that a girl as yourself you say you are short would have an advantage over guys like me and others who are 6+ feet. but their is only one girl that is a regular at my field she is ok, not real good but she is their all the time so i'll give her credit.
Never, ever count someone out because they're a girl. For example, the second last time I was at Sgt. Splatter's in Toronto, there were a collection of newbies and associated girlfriend's, when we got to the attack and defend scenario (Splatters rotates through scenario's when playing) there is only one reliable way to take the building, it's a 2 story L-shaped building on the back wall, the way to take it is to charge up the stairway to the second floor on the short end of the 'L', the only entrance that has a decent amount of cover, before you hit the stairs, this is easy to see, and the first couple of guys in get pasted usually, I go in about 1 minute into the game, get all the way up and in before getting pasted, but only take out a couple of the half-dozen people defending that door, so as I'm walking off, I see one of the only 2 g/f's who bothered to play go charging up there with a M98, and clear the entrance, getting almost to the corner of the 'L' before getting taken out. She was the only renter/newbie who even tried to get into the building in 2 games (one each side)

I see a lot of guys posting that their ladies like to play. Now this is just a suggestion but why not get them posting on this thread and giving their two cents on women/girls and paintball? I think it would be interesting to hear their viewpoint on the game.
Girls, that play,
I know a ton actualy, Our 10 man team has 2 right now, Although they are Iron Maidens as well, they still play with us at events.
I also have I would say close to 15 girls I play with on aregular basis. Last nite at practice, the girls out numbered teh guys, and the girls, kicked the guys buts.
BTW, everybody was tourney player except me, I am justa paintballer.
team I have no Idea
PS: Look for us at Zaps ams in a few weeks, we will be teh one getting beat up.
hmm, nice articale lizza, you seem lie extremegirl05, shes real cool, hehimaging that, both 14, both gonna atleast play with RT's and both play front, it's a small world, and just remeber, always bunker those that trash on you, i do, even though i'm a guy, but, man, this is turning pointless
I've seen more and more girls playing in just the last 3 or 4 months. There is a girl that plays at Hollow Buzzard in Tn that is real good. She will go toe to toe with the best of them!
Bk2K - I didnt know she was an MP
So how things looking in Cali now ?
my girl fried plays. she even took over my back up mini mag. the bad part is my paint bill went up. lol i can do any thing i want to my gun but i have to do the same to hers. she does not get mad when i (we) play. she get mad cuse we are not going to play.
remember keep the paint on the field
I got my girlfriend into it. She is gun ho now. She grabs my Alley Cat and goes off killing cockers and spyders like candy. I am scared to go against her for fear she will eliminate me. She has improved almost 150% since the first time she played and now she is psycho. It's all good though. No one expects her to jump out like rambo firing string of paint like it's free. So it is all good.
dye gurls!!!!!!

I think we've griped about the silly season enough around here, but hot damn the silly season is on fire right now. Though it's nowhere near this simple, it feels like I could write 'the studs might sit and the scrubs might hit' on every write-up.
For real-time NBA news and information, click here to follow me on Twitter.
I don't know about you guys but the illness that sidelined Ersan Ilyasova last night has been a gut-punch for me. The Bucks are locked into the No. 8 seed and have no incentive to rush anybody back, so your guess is as good as mine with regard to Ilyasova's future. You can throw Larry Sanders into the same bucket after he left last night's game after a hard fall onto his back, which of course cost him games just a few weeks back. And while we're at it let's add Brandon Jennings to the list as he left after just six minutes of action due to a sore Achilles' tendon. That leagues are actually getting decided based on this garbage is beyond me.
Mike Dunleavy scored 17 points with six rebounds, six assists, a block and three treys in 37 minutes, and he's well worth a look with guys dropping like flies in Milwaukee. John Henson went ballistic for 17 points, 25 rebounds, three assists, and seven blocks in 41 minutes against the lowly Magic. Is Henson worth a flier? Sure. But he needs at least one of Ilyasova and Sanders to miss time in order to mitigate a sizable helping of risk. J.J. Redick is looking like a must-add player after playing 42 minutes on his way to 16 points, though he didn't add much else and his value could be sapped by a return of Jennings or the guys in the frontcourt. Consider Marquis Daniels (14 points, seven boards, three steals, two threes) a step or two down in value from Redick, but he's also on the radar.
A common component on winning fantasy teams will be Nikola Vucevic (30 points, 20 rebounds, five assists, one steal, two blocks) and Tobias Harris (30 points, 19 rebounds, five assists, three treys). There really isn't much to say beyond that. Maurice Harkless (knee) played 51 minutes in the overtime win, scoring 14 points with four rebounds, a steal and a block, which makes him a regular Andre from The League compared to Taco and Ruxin.
Jameer Nelson (ankle) did not play last night and with no timetable for return his regular season is easily in doubt. Beno Udrih rolled along with 13 points, four rebounds, 11 assists and two steals, but a 6-of-22 shooting line and five turnovers were a downer. Doron Lamb saw 35 minutes against his old team, scoring 16 points with four treys in 35 minutes. He's a guy to watch and not add in normal sized leagues, but in a much deeper league I don't have any problems with a speculative add at this time of year.
Kyle Korver returned from sitting out Saturday's game and hit a 3-pointer to keep his consecutive games streak alive (71), but played just 18 minutes and scored only six points. It looks like he's sputtering to the finish and while some big games can't be ruled out, owners can move onto the plethora of fantasy options that are available right now. Al Horford played through his hamstring injury to the tune of 16 points and nine rebounds in 26 minutes, and Josh Smith played through his sore knee with 28 points, 12 rebounds, a steal, a block and a three. Both guys should be monitored at this time of season, but for now they're on the right track.
Devin Harris (foot) returned to action and scored eight points with eight assists in 18 minutes, and he'd be nothing but a desperation play if the Hawks rest guys. John Jenkins (21 points, six assists, three treys) fits the profile of a guy that the Hawks could lean on down the stretch, but owners will be playing with fire while the main cogs are on the court. Mike Scott is in the same boat and had a solid 17-point, eight-rebound night in the team's win over Philly.
The Sixers went small against the Hawks last night and that doomed Spencer Hawes to just five points and six rebounds in less than 25 minutes on the floor. Thaddeus Young bounced back from a bad outing to post 28 points and eight boards, and Nick Young scored 19 points with three treys in 26 minutes off the bench. Dorell Wright scored 15 points with a pair of steals and threes, but Damien Wilkins continued his freefall with six points on free throws, four assists, two steals and an 0-for-7 mark from the field. It's a situation to avoid without a doubt, but if you're riding the hot hand you'd go with them in the order I listed.
LeBron James (hamstring), Udonis Haslem (ankle), Dwyane Wade (ankle) and Chris Bosh (illness) all did not play last night, and they're going to be day-to-day for the rest of the season (as is almost anybody on the team). Mario Chalmers scored 13 points with four rebounds, eight assists, a steal and three treys, and he's worth a look while the Heat sit guys out. Mike Miller was a hot pickup and finally delivered with 14 points, eight boards and four treys. All owners can do is plug him in and hope for the best, as the minutes and opportunities pencil out in his direction. Rashard Lewis (17 points, five rebounds, three treys) is also worth a look. Ray Allen made an appearance with 23 points, six rebounds, four assists, three steals and even dunked the ball, but owners should keep him on their DNP watch list.
Trevor Ariza is feeling pain his knee and didn't play last night, with a shutdown a distinct possibility. Martell Webster joined him on the injured list halfway through the game due to his abdominal injury, as the NBA silly season isn't missing a beat. John Wall just missed a triple-double with 17 points, nine rebounds and 11 assists as the good times roll along for owners. A.J. Price came out of nowhere with 23 points and five treys, and he could be the guy to fill in for Ariza and Webster if they miss time.
Rodney Stuckey saw a full boat of minutes and responded with 18 points and seven assists, but Andre Drummond was the star of the show with a career-high 29 points on 10-of-11 shooting and 11 rebounds. Drummond didn't block a shot and probably wasn't in too many lineups for the two-game week, but this goes a long way toward assuaging Roto owners' fears about using him in the final two-game slate. Will Bynum stepped into the void of time created by Jose Calderon's injury, scoring 16 points with three assists and a pair of triples. He's worth a look given Calderon's status and the fact that Brandon Knight (seven points, 2-of-11 FGs) is pretty beat up.
There were no problems for Kyrie Irving (27 points, nine assists, 12-of-13 FTs) playing in the second night of a back-to-back set, so perhaps owners will get his full use down the stretch. Dion Waiters (knee) returned to action and played 15 minutes, scoring 11 points on 5-of-12 shooting with not much else. He's worth a look in standards but is a much better look in deeper formats, since he could stay on a minute limit and his production isn't guaranteed to be stellar with Irving on the floor next to him.
Gerald Wallace's season has been a total bust and he may have been put out of his misery with a heel injury that knocked him out of last night's game. He shouldn't be anywhere near fantasy rosters with his season probably in doubt. Deron Williams scored 29 points with four rebounds and 12 assists as the late season resurgence continues. Congratulations if you saw that coming, as you're in the minority on that call. Reggie Evans scored just one point but had his normal assortment of 14 boards and a steal, but after some massive outings owners should be able to cut him some slack. Joe Johnson scored 20 points and just having him on the floor is a win for owners at this point.
Jeff Green couldn't find the range as he hit just 4-of-17 shots for 11 points with four rebounds and two treys. He could be getting used to having Kevin Garnett (11 points, eight rebounds, four assists) and Paul Pierce (23 points) back, but it would be fairly surprising if he didn't get back on track.
Goran Dragic was let loose again last night and put up 21 points, four rebounds, 13 assists, two steals and a block, and some version of that has been available to the Suns all season long if they wanted it. P.J. Tucker scored 17 points with 10 rebounds, two steals, and three treys, but betting on a repeat is not advisable given his history. Markieff Morris stayed on the right track with 12 points, seven rebounds, a block and two threes, while Wes Johnson got back on the right side of the ledger with 17 points and three 3-pointers.
Jared Dudley scored 18 points but one look at his game log should deter owners, and Michael Beasley will not rejoin the team until Saturday and is questionable for that night's game against the Wolves. Luis Scola backed up a solid Tuesday with 11 points and 15 rebounds. He's a risky play any way you slice it, but the recent returns at least give owners a premise to justify starting him with. Jermaine O'Neal atoned for his faux pas on Tuesday with four points, six rebounds and seven blocks, and he'll continue to be worth a look for owners seeking big man stats.
O.J. Mayo couldn't shake off the struggles and hit just 2-of-10 shots for six points, five rebounds and six assists. I thought he wouldn't take a huge hit when Dirk Nowitzki returned but that obviously hasn't been the case. Dirk played through his foot injury and posted 21 points with eight boards, but tonight's loss knocked the Mavs out of the playoffs and he should be on the DNP watch list. Chris Kaman followed up his big 26-point, 11-rebound outing with a two-point, eight-rebound dud, which isn't all that surprising. Shawn Marion went big with 22 points, nine boards, three steals and a block, and Vince Carter scored 18 points with six rebounds, a steal and a block to go with three treys. Both guys are also on the DNP watch list. Elton Brand (calf) was in uniform but did not play last night.
I was up close and personal at Sleep Train last night when Anthony Davis went down with a knee injury and it didn't look good at first. He left the court under his own power and the Hornets are talking somewhat optimistically, as Davis will get evaluated today.
Robin Lopez is now worth a look given Davis' injury after he posted 20 points, five rebounds and a block, and Brian Roberts scored 20 points with six rebounds, five assists, two steals, a block and two triples in 33 minutes.
Greivis Vasquez looked like he shouldn't have played last night given his ankle injuries, and he finished with just four points, one rebound and two assists in 25 minutes. Garbage time could have been a factor for his low minute total, but clearly he didn't look right and owners shouldn't be surprised by missed time. He gets a day of rest before Friday's game, but I wouldn't hesitate to add Roberts given the likelihood that Vasquez and Eric Gordon (23 points, three boards, seven assists, two steals, one block, three treys) miss time. That said, Gordon played in his first back-to-back set and both he and the Hornets would love for him to pump up his trade value heading into the summer.
The Kings were destined to win in their second-to-last home game of this season, playing behind a raucous home crowd and against a Hornet team coming off a game at Staples the night before. Marcus Thornton got hot and scored 20 points with four threes, five boards, a steal and a block, and Jason Thompson scored 20 points with eight boards, a steal and two blocks in the Kings' blowout win. John Salmons scored 22 points with three rebounds, three assists and two treys, but more so than the previously mentioned Kings he can't be trusted by owners in normal formats.
DeMarcus Cousins fouled out after 25 minutes of action, scoring 11 points with four rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks. He's going to finish the year one step away from forced time off, but for now owners can continue to use him. Patrick Patterson (back) did not play last night, and before Kings fans get thoroughly excited about a good player that happens to run to the right spaces on the floor they should realize that Patterson has a bit of a nagging injury history.
I'm running out of superlatives to describe Kobe Bryant with, as he played all 48 minutes and led his beleaguered Laker team to a much-needed win in Portland last night. He scored a season-high 47 points on 14-of-27 shooting with eight rebounds, five assists, three steals and four blocks while setting the Rose Garden single-game scoring record.
Pau Gasol paid off owners once again with 23 points, seven rebounds, nine assists and two blocks, though it should be noted that the Blazers were extremely weak up front last night. Antawn Jamison aggravated his pesky shooting wrist injury, playing just 15 minutes with five points and three rebounds on the night.
Steve Nash did not play last night, as expected, and he added that he has nerve issues with his injured hamstring. He's questionable at best for Friday's game against the Warriors. Steve Blake filled in with eight points, seven rebounds, three assists, a steal and two triples, in an effort that owners may be able to pencil in for the rest of the year. Dwight Howard went for 20 and 10 with three blocks, and the rest of the squad bottomed out with fantasy lines so ugly they aren't worth mentioning. The Lakers moved a full game ahead of the Jazz for the only undecided playoff slot in the land.
Nicolas Batum (shoulder) did not play last night but he made comments to the effect that he wants to play again this season, which is enough to hold him unless you're in a must-win situation. J.J. Hickson (back) was added to the injury list and did not play last night, with reports that he won't be playing in Portland next season an interesting backdrop, unless of course like me you had him in a weekly lineup.
LaMarcus Aldridge (migraine) played and put up 17 and 16 with three steals, while Damian Lillard scored a season-high 38 points on 12-of-25 shooting with five 3-pointers, nine assists, three steals and a perfect 9-of-9 mark from the foul line. Lillard has been looking a bit hobbled and run down at times, and a game against the Lakers might have been tempting enough to run the tank a bit empty, so keep an eye out for any reports that he might get a game off. I don't think it will happen since the Blazers could really struggle without him, but anything is possible at this time of the season.
Will Barton didn't live up to the hype last night, scoring nine points on 4-of-12 shooting with one rebound, two assists and two steals in 29 minutes, but I wouldn't be surprised if he improves on that now that the Lakers are off the slate. Victor Claver also left last night's game due to an ankle injury, subtracting yet another option from Terry Stott's rotation.
Tony Parker (neck) did not play last night despite being a game-time call, but you know the drill by now with Pop and the end of the year. Tim Duncan didn't exactly pick up the slack on a 17-point night that included just three rebounds and one block, but it helps his cause that he's the only member of the Big Three that is on the floor. Gary Neal scored 17 points off the bench, hitting 6-of-15 shots with three treys and two steals. He's a guy to look at if you're scraping the barrel on a deeper league.
Ty Lawson (heel) did not play last night, as expected, and while George Karl put a 15-20 minute outlook on Lawson's return there are no guarantees that he returns before the playoffs. This freed up Andre Iguodala (12 points, 13 boards, 10 assists, three steals, seven turnovers) to triple-double, Andre Miller scored 12 points with five assists, and Wilson Chandler went gadzooks with 29 points, eight rebounds, four assists, two steals, one block, and three triples. Corey Brewer got in on the fun with 28 points on 12-of-25 shooting with two threes and a steal, and with Lawson and Danilo Gallinari out right now this core is poised to do some damage.
Ricky Rubio has hit the wall hard and fast this week, and last night he handed owners another slow six-point, seven-assist night that included a 2-of-8 mark from the field. He is dealing with a shoulder injury but it's also possible that he carried too much load coming off knee surgery. Regardless, owners should be weary of a shutdown and hope for the best. The rest of the box score was tepid outside of Nikola Pekovic (20 points, five boards), though Derrick Williams did put up 13 points, 10 rebounds, three steals, a block and a three despite a 3-of-12 mark from the field. Dante Cunningham (hamstring) was a late scratch, though his absence was absorbed in a rotation that included seven guys playing between 19-26 minutes.
Chris Paul made easy work of Ricky Rubio and Co. with 19 points, seven rebounds, 11 assists, four steals, two blocks and two threes while shooting 7-of-11 from the field. DeAndre Jordan scored 10 points with five blocks, Blake Griffin scored 19 points with eight rebounds, seven assists and a steal, and Matt Barnes spoke up with 14 points, seven rebounds and a steal.
Jonas Valanciunas suffered what is being called a "flexion extension injury" to his neck and will be reevaluated in Toronto today. Our blurbs have been pretty forceful about him missing Friday's game, but I keep hearing beat writers report things like JV "joking around" while getting strapped to a gurney and yesterday that he is "fine other than an uncomfortable neck brace." Of course, the Raps will treat him with kid gloves and there is no incentive to rush him back, but I personally can't rule him out with reporters saying things like that. Therefore, I'll be holding him until we get further clarification on the matter.
Chandler Parsons (calf) said he overdid things in rehab and now his regular season is in doubt.
NY @ CHI: Tyson Chandler (neck) and Kenyon Martin (ankle) will miss tonight's game and one more after that, but if it's any consolation Chandler said he could play if it were the playoffs. Now that you've thrown something at the wall, start sacrificing things with the hopes Chandler can return before the playoffs. Joakim Noah (plantar fasciitis) was ruled out early yesterday for tonight's game and his season is in doubt. Taj Gibson was called "day-to-day," as was Luol Deng (hip), and both guys fit that designation to a T. Richard Hamilton (back) said he felt good after Tuesday's game but owners shouldn't expect much as he ramps up for the playoffs. This leaves Jimmy Butler in a prime position to succeed, and Nazr Mohammed is worth a look as a low-end boards and blocks play.
OKC @ GSW: Oklahoma City comes into the game healthy and fighting for the No. 1 seed in the West, while Golden State comes into tonight riding a tsunami of celebration having clinched a playoff spot on Tuesday. The national TV game and opponent should keep the Warriors from having a letdown, assuming they all didn't strain an oblique patting each other on the back. In related news, I can't wait to watch the playoffs as a fan and not an analyst (at least for the most part).

Anthony Boone completed 31-of-38 passes for a career-high 295 yards and three touchdowns to lead Duke to a 35-7 victory in his first game back from injury. Four different Duke players registered touchdowns, while the Blue Devil defense forced Navy into a season-high three turnovers.DURHAM, N.C. -- Redshirt junior quarterback
Junior wide receiver Jamison Crowder led all receivers with 10 catches for 88 yards, and sophomore running back Jela Duncan led a balanced ground game with 45 yards from nine carries. Three different Duke receivers had at least five catches, while six had three-plus on the afternoon.
Defensively, Duke was outstanding in the second half. The Blue Devils held the Midshipmen to 73 yards and only five first downs following the intermission. The 319 total yards by Navy are the fewest by a Duke opponent since Memphis managed just 237.
After a scoreless first quarter, the Blue Devils put points on the scoreboard first with a 27-yard strike from Boone to redshirt junior Issac Blakeney for a 7-0 lead in the second quarter. Boone and senior Juwan Thompson highlighted the 12-play, 80-yard drive, capped by Boone's first touchdown of the season, with the Duke signal caller throwing for 42 yards and Thompson adding 24 yards on the ground.
Less than two minutes later, the Midshipmen evened the score after Marcus Thomas raced up the Navy sideline for 47 yards to the Duke 12-yard line. Two players later, Darius Staten found the end zone for six with a seven-yard dash with 7:49 to play.
Redshirt junior Josh Snead took over on the ensuing drive for Duke, carrying the ball for a total of 21 yards as the Blue Devils became just the second team this season to score multiple touchdowns against the Midshipmen in a single quarter. Following a two-yard rush to the Navy three-yard line by Boone, the Duke quarterback found sophomore Max McCaffrey in the back corner of the end zone to put the Blue Devils up 14-7 with 4:35 to play in the period.
After allowing Navy to drive to the Blue Devils' 10-yard line, the Duke defense forced quarterback Keenan Reynolds to fumble, allowing Duke to head into the locker room up 14-7 at the half. Linebacker Kelby Brown recovered the fumble, the fifth of his career and first of the 2013 campaign. Brown's fumble recovery was able Duke's first since it picked up a pair Sept. 7 at Memphis.
Duke, with the help of a stout Blue Devil defensive effort, extended its lead to 21-7 behind the arm of Boone. The redshirt junior went 4-of-5 for 73 yards on Duke's opening drive of the half, including an 18-yard connection to Blakeney for his second touchdown of the afternoon.
On the strength of a Jeremy Cash interception at the Navy 33-yard line, Duke quickly made it a 28-point game on a seven-yard rush by Shaquille Powell into the end zone. The Blue Devils converted a fake field goal attempt from the 17-yard line en route to scoring their fifth touchdown on the previous six possessions. The touchdown was Powell's first of his career as the sophomore became the fourth Blue Devil to find the end zone on the afternoon.
Defensive end Justin Foxx keyed a solid performance from the Duke defense as the redshirt senior led the Blue Devils with eight tackles, including four solo stops. In addition to his interception, Cash was one of four Duke players with seven tackles and also added a tackle for loss, while defensive end Kenny Anunike contributed seven tackles, a quarterback sack and a forced fumble.
Duke returns to ACC action next weekend, hitting the road to take on Virginia Oct. 19 at 3:30 p.m.

Whoopi Goldberg is apparently the sole survivor on "The View."
Network sources told TMZ that Goldberg will be the only view kept on the talk show. Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy have both been fired, the sources said, along with executive producer Bill Geddie. The decision reportedly was made late Thursday.
Barbara Walters retired from on-camera duties in May.
According to People, a source said Shepherd could not reach agreement with ABC on a new deal and McCarthy was being let go because the show "is moving in a new direction creatively."
Really? Does that mean we can expect a man's view in the near future?
Both women confirmed their departures late Thursday on Twitter.
"The number 7 is God's number of completion & after 7 seasons my time at The View is now complete! So grateful 2 every1 4 their love & support," Shepherd wrote, adding, "Incredibly grateful to my second mom Barbara Walters for pushing me beyond my comfort zone -- it's been amazing doing it scared! #joy"
McCarthy wrote that she would be following Shepherd out. "My View will be changing too. As will with many hard working folks. Thanks to everyone at the show for your dedication and an amazing year."
What a love fest!
Speculation is already flying about who will replace the pair. Included in the rumors: Rosie O'Donnell, who has already taken a spin on the show; Laila Ali; Ross Mathews; and Jesse Palmer. If the latter two are serious contenders, then the show really isn't just paying lip service to talk of a "new direction."

Latches109's guide to putting an ego frame on an automag.
*7/32nd drill bit
*SMC SY113A-SG-PM3 [solenoid]
http://www.airsoldier.com has them or order from SMC
this is the break down of the noid SN, if you order directly from SMC
SMC = company,
SY = type of noid in their product line,
1 = 100 series,
1 = normally closed,
3 = piping, body ported,
A = large flow style,
S = 5 Volts,
G = Grommet lead wire .3m,
[don't need a surge suppressor]
[non locking push style manual over ride]
PM3 = Body ported for m3 threads
* A RAM that fits. This is the hard part, I may be able to get more of the one I used but I'm not sure. You will just have to experiment with this part. I have yet to mount the solenoid, and have found it to bounce, and move. This should be eliminated once I figure out the best way to mount it. Mine is wedged in there right now. MPA-3 works. Check out the other emaggo threads. links at the bottom.

Use the ULT in the valve. Put in lots of shims^^

Drill the front of the frame like so[but straight]^^

Line up the frame and rail then mark where to drill for the back

remove front arm of sear^^

solder noid lead to a 2 pin connector to connect with the board, you can destroy a timmy eye harness for it like i did. or crimp one on if you have the tool. Or buy one here Link like Loguzzzzzz did.
plug it all in
connect all the hoses
get the noid situated just right so the grip closes
air up
power on
and go mowing.
here is some video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYvKxMlZ_Vo
