With the increased use of rifles by patrol officers, there comes the need for modern modifications to make them more effective and to better fit the task at hand. One of the most obvious and likely the most effective is the use of modern optical sighting systems.

The plan here is to introduce a Monday-Wednesday-Friday exercise regimen that is unique, fast (sub-30 minutes each), and cheap. Do as you read here for six weeks and you'll be nothing less than shocked at the level of strength and conditioning you attain with so little time invested in each workout.
Soft body armor ballistic vest packages are rated levels 1 through 4 by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) based on how much protection from ballistic rounds they are rated to provide. Similarly, armor plates are available in two different types or classes tested and recognized by the NIJ: type 3 and type 4.
It can take time for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) to arrive on scene. During that time law enforcement officers may be the only medical care available. So officers need to be trained to supply that care.
Tens of thousands of combat-weary warriors are now being discharged out of the military, often without a game plan as to what they will do next. Many of them entered the military right out of high school, so being a warrior is the only job they've ever had.
Zombies aside, there are trends emerging in the firearms industry, and they have the potential to determine what tools you will be issued in the near future.
As a trauma surgeon and a tactical medical specialist, I am often asked by law enforcement officers what caliber and type of handgun ammunition offers the most stopping power. I can't answer that question. Let me explain why.
Disabled federal agents face severe and unwarranted reductions to their Federal Employees Compensation Act (FECA) benefits should Title III of S. 1789, the "21st Century Postal Service Act," become law.
Everyone is well aware that humans are visual creatures. It is far and away our most dominant sense and that is one of the reasons I get so frustrated that we have so many distracters in our modern patrol vehicles.
The Newtown massacre could have as much effect on the firearms industry as 9/11 had on the airline industry. And it may result in the hasty passage of ill-conceived laws and onerous regulations that accomplish nothing but depriving law-abiding Americans of their rights.
The SIG716 makes a great first impression. It's a ruggedly built 7.62mm carbine with a 16-inch barrel and a free-floating quad rail. I felt like a kid on Christmas morning when I was opening the box.
As law enforcement officers we find it hard to think of ourselves as "victims." We tend to think that robberies, burglaries, and home invasions happen to other people, not to us. After all, we're the cops. Unfortunately, crime can affect anyone, even us.
The sight of the wagon pulling into the hotel parking lot caused Bohanan's heart to sink. He hoped that the suspect would drive through the hotel lot and continue on. He didn't want to have to deal with a desperate murder suspect loose in the hotel.
Officer Chuck Law of the Stratham (N.H.) Police Department drove his cruiser directly into the line of fire during a barricade situation to evacuate two downed colleagues and get them treatment.
Attic Clear was developed in response to a customer request. It all began when Micro-Times owner and CEO Tony Leonti got a call from Rich Burdick, a lieutenant with the Palm Beach County (Fla.) Sheriff's Office.
Any time you react you are processing information and making decisions using the OODA loop. The OODA loop consists of four parts: Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act.
Once a custodial suspect has been given Miranda warnings and has acknowledged his understanding, he might waive his rights and submit to questioning, or he might invoke—either by indicating that he doesn't want to talk, or by requesting counsel.

Recurrent illness focused news media attention on Archbishop Desmond Tutu again this summer. Coverage of Tutu's hospitalization in August for inflammation noted that the retired South African Anglican Church leader received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984 for his part in the fight against apartheidthe white minority government's enforced separation and inequality for majority blacksin his native land (Archbishop Tutu admitted to hospital again, C.N.N., Aug.18, 2015).
Reporting his July hospitalization for a lingering infection, The New York Daily News ranked Tutu among the world's foremost human rights activists, including Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., and Mohandas Gandhi (Retired Archbishop Desmond Tutu hospitalized for infection, July 14).
Such coverage, elevating Tutu to the status of Rev. King, for example, ignored the hostility he developed toward Israel, Zionism and the Jewish people. Determined to see in Israel an apartheid state, Tutu has remained impervious to contrary evidence.
King, on the other hand, shortly before his assassination, rebuked a student critic of Israel, saying, When people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You are talking anti-Semitism (The Socialism of Fools: The Left, the Jews and Israel by Seymour Martin Lipset; Encounter magazine, December 1969, p. 24.)
Tutu alleged, for example, that Israeli Jews dominate over Palestinians. A United Church of Christ meeting in Cleveland in 2015 cited the archbishop in support of a boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) resolution aimed at companies doing business in and products from what it mistakenly labeled Palestinian territories and illegal Israeli settlements. Tutu wrote:
We grieve over Israel's decades long oppression of Palestine [Sic.] and Palestinians: The illegal occupation
the separation wall
the network of checkpoints and settler bypass roads
[the] disruption of every aspect of daily life for Palestinians (UCC Action Seeking Peace Between Israel and Palestine, Huffingtonpost.com, July 9, 2015).
In fact, Palestinian leadership has refused Israeli and U.S. offers of an independent West Bank, Gaza Strip and eastern Jerusalem country, in exchange for peace with Israel as a Jewish state, four times since 2000. If Israeli Jews dominate Palestinian Arabs, as Tutu has it, the latter have chosen repeatedly not to end such a condition if the price is peace.
Jewish communities in the West Bank (Judea and Samaria), contrary to Tutu, U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and other newsmakers, are not only legal but also encouraged or anticipated under international law. The League of Nations (later United Nations) Palestine Mandate, Article 6; San Remo Treaty, 1920; Anglo-American Convention, 1924; and U.N. Charter, Chapter 12, Article 80 all support this status.
As for the archbishop's apartheid Israel allegation, Rev. Kenneth Rasalabe Joseph Meshoe, a member of South Africa's parliament and president of the African Christian Democratic Party, told Israel's Channel 10 there are many Christians that support Israel, but they don't come out.
Those who know what real apartheid is, as I know, know there is nothing in Israel that looks like apartheid.
He said defenders of Israel usually face intimidation, but added, according to The Jerusalem Post, calling Israel an apartheid state is an empty political statement that does not hold truth,' adding, You see people of different colors, backgrounds and religions' interacting with each other every day (I know what apartheid was, and Israel is not apartheid, Aug. 25, 2015).
Tutu often has criticized Israel's West Bank security barrier, as in his remarks for the U.C.C. in Cleveland. But he rarely, if ever speaks about why the barrier was builtto help suppress the Palestinian terrorist war of the second intifada (2000-2005), in which more than 1,000 Israelis, both Jews and Arabs, and foreign visitors were murdered.
Of Tutu's Oct. 27, 2007 address at the Old South Church in Boston, CAMERA analyst Dexter Van Zile observed that, At no point
did he mention groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, or other groups in the Middle East that deny Israel's right to exist and which espouse vicious attitudes toward Jews
Archbishop Tutu
focused exclusively on Israeli checkpoints and the security barrier (Tutu's Words of Philo-Semitism Ring Hollow, CAMERA, Nov. 5, 2007).
At the 2007 Sabeel Conference in Boston Tutu said, The world needs the Jews, Jews who are faithful to the vocation that has meant so much for the world's morality, of its sense of what is right and wrong, what is good and bad, what is just and unjust, what is oppressive and what sets people free. Jews are indispensable for a good compassionate, just and caring world (Desmond Tutu: Above Reproach? The New Republic, Oct. 31, 2007).
He also unwittingly slanders the history of the anti-apartheid movement (of which he was himself a crucial part) by comparing it to Palestinian nationalism. The former, while certainly characterized at times by terrorist activity as well as brutality against its own cadres, was never subsumed by the sort of jihadist culture of the PLO [Palestine Liberation Movement] and Hamas [Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement], nor did it ever call for a South Africa devoid of whites, as opposed to the leading Palestinian nationalist movements which are, and have always been, violently anti-Semitic in philosophy and practice.
Tutu's the world needs Jews was disingenuous. He paired recognition of Jews and Judaism's central role in the rise of ethical monotheism with a sweeping indictment that essentially demonized the Jewish state and Jewish people.
For example, in an article written for The Guardian (U.K.) Tutu wrote, People are scared in [the United States], to say wrong is wrong because the Jewish lobby is powerfulvery powerful (Apartheid in the Holy Land, April 28, 2002).
That Tutu chose to appear at a Sabeel forum, as at Boston in 2007, itself suggests anti-Zionist and antisemitic beliefs. Sabeel, as CAMERA has pointed out, [has a] passion to demonize Israel
The way the Arab-Israeli conflict is described [by Sabeel, deems] nothing
the fault of the Palestinians or their Arab supporters;' [and] everything
Israel's fault (Sabeel's Demonizing Liturgy, CAMERA, Dec. 7. 2007).
Then there is Tutu's participation with former U.S. President Jimmy Cater in the grandiosely named collection of self-described peacemakers The Elders. The group comprises former high-ranking political figures dedicated to promoting human rights, except perhaps in the case of Jews and their state. Among the most well-known members have been the late Nelson Mandela, former president of South Africa; Mary Robinson, former president of Ireland, Carter and Tutuall vocal critics of and sometimeslike Carter apologists for Israel's enemies (see Washington Jewish Week: Carter's Elders of Anti-Zion, CAMERA, Feb. 3, 2011).
Of Tutu, Harvard University Law School Prof. Emeritus Alan Dershowitz has written that he is no mere anti-Zionist
. He has minimized the suffering of those killed in the Holocaust. He has attacked the Jewish' not Israeli lobby as too powerful' .... He has invoked classic antisemitic stereotypes ... about Jewish arrogance,' power' and money .... [A]nd has accused the Jews' of causing many of the world's problems (Bishop Tutu Is No Saint When it Comes to Jews, Dec. 20, 2010, The Gatestone Institute). Tutu, impervious to facts, also has denied that Israel is a civilized democracy and unsuccessfully urged the Capetown Opera not to perform there.

Israel destroys Palestinian Foreign Ministry building
A bomb dropped by an Israel Air Force plane severly damaged the Palestinian Foreign Ministry building in Gaza City early Thursday, witnesses said. The building partially collapsed and the bomb caused widespread destruction in the area.
Witnesses reported at least 13 people were wounded in the strike, which took place after 1:30 A.M. local time.
Israel confirmed it had carried out an airstrike on the Palestinian Foreign Ministry, saying it is "led by Hamas" and has been used for the "planning of terror attacks."
Palestinian Foreign Ministry spokesman Taher al-Nunu accused Israel of carrying out "organized terrorism that targets all the Palestinian people and aims to exterminate all government institutions, one after another, to prevent them from carrying out their duties."
Houses in the area were badly damaged by the force of the explosion, and the third and fourth floor of the foreign ministry building were demolished.

Rebirth-Christanity-Islam-Hind- uism –Part-II
You are saying that the soul will enter the births of animals and birds if it does not attain the Brahmaloka in this human birth. Can you explain this with more clarification?
In Islam and Christianity there is no rebirth for the soul. The soul gets human birth only once. After this human birth the soul will either go to the Lord or will go to the hell permanently. Only one Lord created this entire universe. Therefore the policy should be the same for all the souls in this universe. There is only one Lord. All the souls are equal to Him. Can you deny this? If you don't agree with this theory, you can follow your own faith. But your faith is not important. The truth is important. What ever is true, that alone happens and not as per your faith. If you agree with this policy I can correlate all the religions.
If you can correlate all the religions in a better way, I will also agree with you. If you are not caring for the correlation and follow your faith only, there is nothing for me to preach you. My correlation of all the religions is like this : In Gita two paths are explained.
In the first path one goes to Brahmaloka without returning back. In the other path one returns back to this earth and falls in the cycle of births and deaths which is the wheel of Samsara. In all the religions there are only two paths. Reaching Brahmaloka is reaching the Lord. Falling in the cycle animals and births is going to the hell permanently. The soul which, has fallen in this hell will never get the human rebirth in which there is facility of trying to reach Brahmaloka. Not getting such a spiritual human rebirth is the absence of rebirth.
The soul which, goes to Brahmaloka will never get the rebirth of animals and birds and in such sense this soul also has no rebirth. But one point is to be understood carefully. The birth of animal, bird, worm etc., does not mean the actual animal or bird or worm etc., There are several human beings who live like animals, birds and worms. Such human births are also the births of animals, birds, worms etc., We are seeing such human beings in majority on this earth. They are immersed in the worldly bonds like money, children etc., They cannot cut their blind love to these worldly bonds. Even if they put some spiritual effort, it is incomplete because of the attachment with these bonds.
Such souls when they go to the upper worlds are also involved in such bonds in the upper worlds also. They can never attain Brahmaloka by preaching any amount of divine knowledge to them. But if they are not preached they will blame the Lord during the enquiry posing that they might have attained Brahmaloka, had they received the divine knowledge. The Lord preaches them also only to save himself from such blame and not to save them. Therefore if you are having all the facilities and also interest in the spiritual line this is the best birth for you and this is the only chance for you. If you waste this human birth you are falling into the births of animals etc., You are not given such chance again.
Islam and Christianity say that the soul has to wait for the final enquiry which, is to be done at the end of this world. This human body (Pindanda) is stated as the world (Brahmanda). The human body is a mini world containing the same components. Therefore the death of this human body can be treated as the end of this world from the point of the soul. You can also treat the day as birth and night as death. Veda says that the deep sleep is equal to death (Naviduhu Sati Sampatsyama Iti). Gita also says the same (Prabhavantyaharagame). Therefore the feelings (Samskaras) of previous births mean only the feelings of yesterday.
If you are on the spiritual line and if you are making sincere spiritual effort to cut these worldly bonds and to strengthen the bond with the Lord, your lifetime can be extended by the Lord. You will cross the day of your death by the grace of the Lord, which is a rebirth. Such extension of life will help you really in the spiritual effort if you are given a human rebirth there will be lot of gap since you have to stay in the womb of your mother and you have to cross the childhood. Such long gap will give a serious break in your spiritual effort.
From this point of view also there is no human rebirth. If one cannot attain the Brahmaloka in this human birth itself by getting the extension of life, can such a soul get Brahmaloka in the next human birth after such a long gap? Gita also says that the soul is taking birth and death constantly during the day and night (Athachainam Nitya Jatam). Like this all the three religions can be correlated and only one theory is evolved.

Intel's future Sandy Bridge Xeons exposed
x64 iron choices galore
Posted in The Channel, 30th May 2011 03:00 GMT
Exclusive The ongoing x64 server chip war is going to heat up considerably in the third quarter, with both Intel and AMD firing off new processors for midrange server buyers. And we now have a few more details about Intel's future "Sandy Bridge" Xeon platforms and the chipsets that drive them.
Processor socket and chipset transitions are a big deal, and if server makers don't get behind you – perhaps because there is a Great Recession on and they want to cut back on development costs and bet on the surest things to sell in the market – then you have a big problem. Like what AMD had in late 2009 with the delivery of its first home-grown server chipsets – the "Fiorano" SR56X0/SP5100 combo – and the Opteron 4100s in their C32 sockets and the Opteron 6100s in their G34 sockets, which make use of these chipsets, coming out the following spring.
AMD had two different sockets and three different chipset variants to appeal from everything from low-powered single-socket servers all the way up to four-socket boxes with lots of memory and I/O expansion. The technology was good, and the price was right. It just so happened to coincide with a recession and a lot of companies betting on Intel's "Nehalem" generation and its new bus architecture.
AMD does not have to go through painful processor socket and chipset transitions, as it had to last year to its financial chagrin. But it does have a new line of Opteron 4200 and 6200 chips coming out based on the "Bulldozer" cores and a ramp of GlobalFoundries' 32 nanometer wafer baking processes to contend with, so it is not easy skating for AMD, either. Still, AMD has been gloating a bit that the Bulldozer ramp will be easier and Intel has to juggle a bunch of things at the same time with the Sandy Bridge transition.
That's true enough, of course. It is Intel's turn to have to change up sockets and chipsets with the Sandy Bridge Xeons, but Intel's 32 nanometer processes are fully ramped for its server chips, so that is not an issue. And because Intel has to change up server platforms anyway with the Sandy Bridge Xeons, the chip giant is taking the opportunity give server makers more options to accommodate the divergent needs of server makers.
Take a gander at this roadmap, which lays out the server platforms that are coming down the pike:
Intel already launched the Sandy Bridge-DT processors back in March, which we now know as the Xeon E3-1200 chips and which are mostly aimed at micro servers – machines with one socket and minimal memory and peripheral expansion. The Xeon E3 processors plug into Intel's Socket-H2 chip socket, also known as the LGA-1155 (which gives you the pin count and style of socket-to-chip interconnect, in this case a land grid array). The combination of the Xeon E3 processor, the H2 socket, and the "Cougar Point" C202/204/206 chipsets is known as the "Bromolow" platform.
'Romley' for a premium
Looking ahead to 2011 and early 2012, Intel has a number of different variants of the "Romley" platform aimed at different parts of the server racket coming out. A Romley platform designed for "premium" single-socket and "entry" two-socket servers will be comprised of the "Sandy Bridge-EN" Xeon E5 processor, the Socket-B2 (LGA-1356) socket, and the "Patsburg" C600 chipset. A variant of this two-socket Romley platform will be aimed at small form factor servers – think half-width two-socket motherboards used in blade and cookie-sheet servers.
A beefier version of this two-socket Romley platform will come in uniprocessor and two-socket variants and will sport the Socket R (LGA-2011) socket and make use of the Sandy Bridge-EP variant of the Xeon E5 processor. Further up the stack, Intel is cooking up a four-socket Romley platform that will use the high-end "Sandy Bridge-EX" processors. The former Romley platform will use a Patsburg chipset, while the latter one will use a kicker to the current Boxboro chipset. As you can see, the high-end two-socket and low-end four-socket servers of the Xeon future will use the same Socket R socket, which will make life easier for server makers.
The big differences between the midrange Romley platforms have to do with what is activated on the Patsburg chipset and what is not, according to documents that El Reg has been able to get its hands on:
The Romley servers based on the Socket-B2 socket will be able to scale up to eight Sandy Bridge cores per socket, but the B2 sockets only have one QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) link between the two processors on the board and only three memory channels per socket with two DDR3 DIMMs per channel (DPC in the chart). The Patsburg chipsets used in the Socket-B2 Romley machines will implement 24 PCI-Express 3.0 lanes per socket, which can be carved up in a number of different ways.
The fatter Romley Socket-R machines will take on the full Sandy Bridge core count of eight cores, but there will be two QPI links between the sockets for improved performance on SMP workloads, four memory channels per socket and three DIMMs per channel for higher memory capacity and bandwidth, and 40 PCI-Express 3.0 lanes per socket for peripheral expansion. GPU coprocessors will eat this I/O for lunch.
There are a mix of LAN-on-motherboard (LOM) Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet options for networking. The industry has been waiting for 10GE ports on motherboards, and with the Romley platforms, Xeon server makers will finally have them. This will make the cost of 10GE networking come way down and spur the adoption of 10GE switches in the data center.
A 'Patsburg' for every need
A lot of the variation that Intel is baking into the Romley platform is coming from the Patsburg chipset, which is coming in four different flavors, the C600-A, C600-B, C600-D, and C600-T. Here's how the different peripheral features of the Patsburg variants stack up:
By making a variable Patsburg chipset, Intel can deliver different functionality at different price points and do a better job of competing against AMD, which is trying to win hearts and data center budgets straight out on low pricing with two different processors in two sockets and three chipset variations. If Intel can best meet the needs of different server customers by having a range of I/O options – allowing server makers to only put the features customers absolutely need and will pay for into each box – then Chipzilla has a good chance of deflecting what we assume will be a very aggressive Opteron 6200 in the summer and then Opteron 4200 launch later in 2011 or perhaps early in 2012.
In any event, the Patsburg-A chipset supports four 6Gb/sec SATA ports for disk drive or solid state drive storage. The Patsburg-B chipset adds support for 6Gb/sec SAS peripherals. Both of these Patsburg variants seem to use the x4 DMI Generation 2 interface that Intel created for linking on-chip HD Graphics coprocessors to the CPUs. The Patsburg-D chipset adds four more SAS or SATA ports and a PCI-Express 3.0 uplink to the CPU to carry the extra load. All three of these Patsburg chipsets offer software-based RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 data protection on the SATA ports and RAID 0, 1, and 10 protection on the SAS ports.
If you want RAID 5 protection on your SAS drives, you need to buy a machine with the fourth Patsburg-T variant. The T variant of the C600 chipset will also support non-volatile storage (NV-SRAM), and it seems reasonable that this will be a cache for the RAID 5 disk arrays implemented by the chipsets. ®

In addition to the Snoezelen Room, our team plans to bring "Disney World" to the childrenat PATCHES, whom due to their terminal illness or inability travel, will never have theopportunity. This event will bring much needed joy and an experience they will never forget.
Kickball Rules
1). Maximum of 12 players on the field. They can be arranged in any manner you chose, but there must be a pitcher and a catcher. No player may be closer to the kicker than the pitcher. Players must be even to or behind the pitcher.
2). First two unseeded round games will be 3 innings unless we are running short on time, then the games may be shortened. The seeded rounds will be 4 innings.
3). Each person who played on the field must bat once before a player may bat a second time in an inning. In other words, you must follow a batting rotation each inning.
4). There are no stealing bases at any time. No leading off or leaving before the ball is kicked. You will be called out if attempting to steal and or your foot is not on the base up until the time when the kicker strikes the ball.
5). Fielders may throw the ball at or below a base runner's shoulders for an out. Hitting anyone in the face or head may results in an automatic 2 bases for each base runner. However, if the runner ducks or throws his/her head into the line of the ball intentionally, no extra bases will be awarded and it is considered an out.
6). Pitchers: The pitch must be rolled into the kicker's box or it will be called a ball. 4=walk, 3 foul balls=out. No strike outs.
7). Kickers: The kicker in only permitted one touch on the ball (no trapping and kicking). You must kick the ball while it is still moving and when it is in the kicker's box.
8). Bunting is permitted.
9). The references have complete control over the game. Be smart. If the refs think you are being unsafe or unsportsmanlike, they will remove you from the game.

Engine Cooling problem
1968 Ford Fairlane V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 252525 miles
Hi Ya! My modified 68 fairlane 500 bored 30 over 460 engine (new block) ford 9 inch narrowed rear end, 2800 stall, special holly carb made for this engine as it was just blue printed and balanced with many modified racing parts, Is way over heating. The main point I am concerned with is > 'Before I start! *The radiator is a aluminium & Has a sticker on it Reading > IMPORTANT Use only OEM approved coolant for this radiator. Unfortunatly, I did not notice this and used a brand I picked up at the local gas station. EEK`s ! Well I just bought this car a year ago and start it twice monthly as I was fixing some pieces - mostly ball joints, and arms, and a few other minor things (lights, blinkers, horn, tail pipes, camber aligniment, and sealed two things at rear of car > One was repair oil leak on rear end as oil was leaking from wheel section, think it was a seal. Also had both fender wells closed using welding and a some strips of metal as they were cut open to fit wider tires. $500 a fender well. This was a drag strip car) Hmm > Bit costly as I went to repair shop. *OK Now Certified! Well I drove it no more than a mile from repair shop, to a gas station as I am at almost empty next to my place & the temperature gauge was at end Hot hot! I waited there for a couple of hours to for engine to cool. I turned key to allternater on, so radiator fans would speed up cooling (Lot`s of Honking cars in that gas lane) "Move it Buddy^ He he! It wouldn`t start. OH forgot to mention, the repair shop did not have the proper type of camber equipment or machine to camber align front wheels, so I stopped off at a different garge that had the correct camber machine albe to align my 1968 ford. $198 bucks *(Oh well Must be done) This place was called Canadian Tire. I am from Toronto, Ontario Canada, So you might not be familar to this Hardware and auto service & repair store. It`s a big Outfit Like Sears, Walmart only strictly Hardware and auto etc. OK - So my *Question is: I am curious - concerned, Is it possible that the coolant may have done some type of damage or corrosion to the aluminium radiator or engine and/ or could it have solidified and could there be bits of debris clogging the circurlation -plumbing and / or any other parts of engine. `Perhaps this type coolant over heats or under heats in a aluminium radiator > Different than if I had used the proper OEM approverd coolant recommended for this radiator. I will post a picture of my car definatly before this spring for interests sake and let you know what was wrong. I posted a question almost a year ago about having to pump and hold gas pedal down aways, almost floor for 1/2 minute or more and ease off slowly for it to idle other wise it dies. WELL - I appreciate any advice and / or solutions, and precautions or dangers to engine or other ( If needed is there a flushing out of possible debris in engine plumbing where coolant has been * AND Can you recommend anything that will best benefit this overheating etc. Thank you very much as I am willing to make a donation in the near future. I most likely will inquire about the starting and quite possible have more questions in the future as this will be my first muscle car and am not sure if I choose to store it in garage in (winter storage Tips) as I can`t wait to drive it Hmm! There is other things that may arise and I like to do some other things like attach a hood scoop where there ids a fair size hole in front hood from past drag racing scoop, Need like 1968 wheather lining or place that does customizing or very close fit! Around side windows maybe other spots etc. There is a roll bar in rear and no back seats, Need inerior on roof as it justs bear metal and few other spots, most everthing else is there. Theres some wires hanging out at dash board area, Oh My heater doesn`t work and power windows are at brink or need adjusting or some attention, as when I first bought car, they worked perfect, but recently stopped, the main button pannel is dangling and plugs some time come out, so they need looking at. * So I will keep you updated and won`t forget a donation after I use or put your answer to some kind of use and really want this car to be fit as possible. Thank you again Richard Toronto, Canada >>`Toronto Maple Leafs to > semi finals this Year Go Go!````100% Congrates to Chicago"Cheers!

Doctor won't face death penalty in slayings of son, partner
First Hill case began Aug. 11
Published 12:45 pm, Monday, November 21, 2011
The First Hill physician who police say killed his partner and 2-year-old son earlier this year will not face the death penalty.
King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg announced Monday that he would seen a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of release if Louis Chen is convicted.
Chen has been charged with two counts of aggravated murder in the first degree for the deaths of Eric Cooper, and their son, Cooper Chen.
Under state law, jurors who choose the death penalty must unanimously agree that they're convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that there are not sufficient mitigating circumstances to merit leniency.
Satterberg said he did not think a jury could be convinced of that, his spokesman said. The only other punishment for the charge is life in prison without the possibility of release.
Chen's attorneys had previously said they were confident the death penalty wouldn't be sought.

"We do believe there's a great deal of information that will be mitigating in this case," defense attorney Todd Maybrown said in an August court hearing, adding that the defense team will "show there is no basis for a death penalty" against Chen.
Newly hired at Virginia Mason Medical Center, Chen was found bloodied and naked at his First Hill home on Aug. 11.
In court documents, Seattle police claimed Chen told officers he killed his partner.
An autopsy performed by the King County Medical Examiner's Office showed Eric Cooper suffered more than 100 stab wounds; he'd been stabbed in the face, neck, torso and hands.
Cooper Chen's throat had been cut.
At 9 a.m. the day the killings were discovered, a property manager at the M Street Apartments received a phone call from Chen's sister who said she had not heard from her brother in days, Seattle Detective J.D. Mudd told the court.
Responding to a request from Chen's sister, the property manager knocked on Chen's door and spoke with him briefly. The property manager told him his sister was hoping to hear from him, and Chen said he would call her.
By then, Chen had already missed a 7:50 a.m. orientation at Virginia Mason Medical Center. A concerned manager from the hospital tried to reach Chen by phone, then went to his apartment building.
The property manager and Chen's colleague knocked on Chen's door. Standing outside, they heard a rustling sound, Mudd told the court, and then looked on as Chen opened the door.
"The defendant was wearing no clothes," the detective said in court documents. "He was covered in dried blood, his right eye was swollen shut, and he was holding a box in front of himself."
Standing in the threshold, one of the women could see Eric Cooper lying on the apartment floor. Chen's colleague asked about his son; the woman told police she thought Chen said "baby" but offered no other reply.
Chen's colleague called 911 and reported seeing a cleaver.
Seattle officers arriving at the apartment at 10:20 a.m. found Chen slumped in the front door, then found Eric Cooper's body.
Cooper Chen was found in the bathroom of the master bedroom.
One of two officers arriving at the scene then asked Chen about the slayings.
"Who did this?" the officer asked.
"What?" Chen responded.
"Stabbed you and him," the officer continued.
"I did," Chen said, according to Mudd's report.
Reviewing access logs for the apartment, investigators learned Chen and Cooper's key fobs – pass cards that allowed access to the lock-out building – hadn't been used since Aug. 8, three days before the deaths were discovered. None of those close to Chen reported seeing him after Aug. 8.
Five knives possibly used in the slayings were recovered from the apartment. All had blood stains on them. Investigators do not note whether Chen made any other statements to police, or give any indication what might have motivated the attack.
Senior Deputy Prosecutor Don Raz successfully argued that Chen should be held without bail, and described him as a man with few ties to Washington and the money to flee.
"He faces either life imprisonment or the death penalty, has significant ties to Taiwan, and has access to financial means sufficient to arrange his flight," Raz told the court in August. "The defendant poses a significant risk of danger to the community based upon the serious penalties he faces combined with his exhibited willingness to use extreme violence."
Chen is scheduled for a case setting hearing on at 1 p.m. Dec. 8 at the King County Courthouse.

Matina Stevis used to be a reporter on the ground in Athens for the Wall Street Journal.
She covered the Greek debt crisis as she lived it. Eventually, she moved on, and is now in Nairobi, as the WSJ's Africa business reporter. This week, she wrote a moving essay for the paper's Expat blog about the experience of being a Greek citizen living abroad as her country endures an economic crisis.
This is the crux of it:
Five years of being told that what's happening in Greece is what Greeks deserve ("Too bad you can't drive your Porsche Cayennes any more"); when your parents have lost their pensions, as have their friends; when people you knew have taken their lives and others have seen their businesses collapse, and they always worked, and always paid taxes; and none of us owned Porsches: It's just not funny anymore.
And let me be clear: This isn't about politics.
Two non-Greek colleagues I respect were raving about the current Greek government the other night — how it's showing the rest of Europe and the International Monetary Fund what's what, how it's a triumph for the little guy.
And I walked away from that conversation too, because the risks Athens has taken are unfathomable to me, and I'm not sure they should be glorified or celebrated over beers in Nairobi.

SPRINGFIELD — I`ve got that racing pig fever,
Catch it every year . . .
Some people like the horses,
Some like the dogs,
SPRINGFIELD — I`ve got that racing pig fever,
Catch it every year . . .
Some people like the horses,
Some like the dogs,
But I just like to watch
Those Heinold racing hogs. Those lyrics are from ``Pig Racing Fever,`` a new country music theme song written for the pig races that will be staged again this year at the Illinois State Fair. With a few word changes, the song could very well be the theme of the huge exposition itself, which is held annually in Springfield in August.
In fact, millions of people have caught the ``State Fair fever`` over the last century or more, including 966,908 who attended the fair last year. Fair officials are hoping that with good weather, attendance for the 1985 fair will exceed one million.
This will be the 133d year for the Illinois State Fair, one of the oldest, biggest, best and richest events of its kind in the nation. It is staged on a 366-acre site on the north edge of Abraham Lincoln`s hometown and attracts exhibitors and spectators from across the Midwest and even from foreign countries.
This year the fair will open on Aug. 8 and continue through Aug. 18.
For the uninitiated, the State Fair is a colorful melange of parades, bands, dancing, harness racing and car racing, horseshoe pitching, livestock judging and horse shows, pig racing, and rooster crowing jamborees. It`s flags and bunting, baton twirling, baby pageants and diaper derbies, ponytail and pigtail contests for tykes, political oratory, style shows, and glittering entertainment by such TV and movie luminaries as Willie Nelson, Alabama, and the Beach Boys.
It`s foot-long hot dogs, cotton candy, fried chicken, catfish, and lemonade shake-ups. The State Fair is carnival rides on the Happy Hollow Midway and, by contrast, literally thousands of exhibits, ranging from scientific and educational displays to art and photography, a housewife`s prize jar of jam and a farmer`s blue-ribbon bull to a million-dollar display of farm machinery.
The fair is a gathering place for senior citizens, some remembering 90 years or more, who come each year to sing, dance, play in kitchen bands, wear funny hats and have a good time. It`s a place where farm kids with stars in their eyes bring prize-winning steers, pigs and lambs they`ve shown at county fairs, hoping to hit a grand championship jackpot that will bring a sales price of thousands of dollars for a college education.
With all the hoopla, there is something nostalgic about the State Fair that recalls an era when life somehow did not seem quite so complicated. Basically, it`s a wholesome family event for young and old, as Gov. James Thompson, an enthusiastic fairgoer himself, points out in his greeting to visitors printed in the State Fair premium books:
``The State Fair is one of the highlights of the summer in Illinois. Our fair has long been recognized as the nation`s premier agricultural exposition. ``But as importantly, it is a family event that offers something for everyone.``
For prospective Chicago area State Fair visitors, Springfield is a 200-mile, four-hour drive southwest down Int. Hwy. 55. Amtrak trains make the trip daily in about three hours for a round-trip fare of $56, or a discount fare of $42 on certain days.
Airlines leaving from Meigs Field or O`Hare International Airport fly it in one hour for a round-trip fare of about $134.
Springfield has a number of good hotels and motels and some good restaurants, but for overnight accommodations during fairtime it`s advisable to make reservations well in advance. Fairgoers who plan to spend more than a day or two at the fair may also want to include visits to Lincoln`s home and tomb and to the restored 132-year-old State Capitol where he was a member of the state legislature.
The fair is operated as a division of the Illinois Department of Agriculture because of its long-time tradition as a primarily agricultural exhibition. Although that tradition continues, the fair under the Thompson administration has gone far beyond Illinois and the Midwest.
In fact, the Illinois fair, unlike most of its Midwest counterparts, has gone international.
For the second successive year, the 1985 fair will feature a large cultural and industrial exhibit from Liaoning Province of the People`s Republic of China. Last year`s exhibit of arts, crafts and other displays, the first of its kind ever sponsored by a foreign government at the fair, was such a hit with Midwest fairgoers that Chinese and Illinois officials asked to have it back this year.
Liaoning Province, a coastal area in northeast China with a population of 35 million, has been nicknamed Illinois` ``sister state.``
The international influence this year will be expanded with exhibits from Japan and Australia. Japan will have a completely furnished typical Japanese home, according to fair officials.
The foreign exhibits will be in the Illinois building, near the main gate to the fairgrounds.

Having problems with your Samsung NC10-14GW Notebook ?
Num lock activated and can't turn it off
\015 I have a small notebook laptop with no 10 key pad. The numbers are on my keyboard as well as the top row as usual with all laptops. Somehow my num lock got activated and now i have to press the "fn" key anytime i have to use the m or any of the keys that contain a number. Can anyone help me turn this off?\015
Answers :
One of your Function keys (F11, F12, etc., usually F11) will also have the NumLock function on them. So when you hold Fn and press F11, it will toggle the Number Lock. Try holding Fn and press F11, this should turn it off (and back on should you ever want to use it again). Your keyboard should be labeled with the various functions keys have when Fn is pressed, you may have to look for the one that reads NumLk.

RE[4]: If you build it, they will come..... maybe?
by WereCatf on Fri 15th Feb 2013 07:01 UTC in reply to "RE[3]: If you build it, they will come..... maybe?"
Gameplay is king. Unfortunately it would seem that the "AAA" studios have forgotten all about this and instead seems obsessed with vfx masturbation, DLC in favor of actual content and never-ending sequels.
Some of them, yes, but "vfx masturbation" does not necessarily mean the lack of everything else. Out of the top of my head some of the best AAA-games in my collection are Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, Skyrim, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Fallout 3, Guild Wars 2, Far Cry 3 and Sid Meier's Civilization V and while all of them do support DLCs they all offer compelling features, 50+ hours of gameplay -- some of them even hundreds of hours of gameplay -- and still manage to do this "vfx masturbation" you mentioned.
I know very, VERY few Indie-studios that can manage anything similar; really, the only one that comes to mind is CD Projekt Red with The Witcher. I don't know if The Witcher 2 would count as indie any longer as the studio grew so much after the success of the first game in the series.
And here we come to the point I have been trying to make: Indie-games are all fine and good and I'm happy for the people who like those games, but they are not a panacea to all of our gaming needs. These studios just do not have the resources to make the kinds of games I'd like, and I ain't the only one out here.

Howard County Schools Yield High Performance, Low Cost
Forbes magazine this month rated Howard County public schools seventh in the nation in its list of "Best and Worst School Districts For The Buck."
The rankings were based on the amount of money public school districts spent on each student in fiscal 2004 and measures of student performance, including students' rate of participation and mean scores on college entrance exams, and the graduation rate in 2005.
According to the article in Forbes, "Winners in this rating system are counties whose schools deliver high performance at low cost. The losers spend a lot of money and have little to show for it."
The ranking includes 97 counties, in which more than half of the public schools' per-pupil spending came from residents' property taxes. Some of the counties' per-pupil expenditures were adjusted to reflect the higher cost of living in some metropolitan areas.
Coming in at the No. 7 spot, Howard spent $9,488 per pupil in the 2004-2005 school year with 72% of the class taking SAT and earning a mean score of 1,113 on a 1,600-point scale. In addition, 93.8% of Howard's seniors graduated in 2005.

Cincinnati Reds Reach Milestone Of 10,000 Wins
CHICAGO -- Cincinnati batted around in the first inning and cruised to a 9-4 win over the Chicago Cubs on Friday for the 10,000th win in franchise history.
Harsh winds and chilly temperatures didn't slow down Cincinnati's offense as Drew Stubbs drove in three runs for the Reds, who joined the Cubs, Giants, Dodgers, Braves and Cardinals as the only teams to reach the 10,000 win plateau. The Cubs dropped their sixth straight and fell to 3-11 on the year.
Winds were blowing in, gusting up to 27 mph, and the game-time temperature was 35 degrees with the wind chill. Chris Volstad (0-2) labored through a four-run, 41-pitch first inning. He gave up run-scoring singles to Joey Votto and Chris Heisey, and an RBI-groundout to Willie Harris as the Reds batted around for the first time this season.
Homer Bailey (1-2) pitched seven solid innings for his first victory of the year. He allowed four runs, but only one was earned. Bailey struck out two and walked none. He also drove in a run with a groundout in the sixth.
Aroldis Chapman struck out a pair in a scoreless eighth, and Jose Arredondo pitched a flawless ninth to close the door.
The Reds and Cubs play again Saturday afternoon at Wrigley Field.

With the success that Skyfall is currently experiencing in theaters all over the world, it looks like James Bond is back at the top of the pop-culture heap where he belongs. And with Sony looking to put out another installment in the franchise by 2014, you better believe that roles in the film are going to be highly coveted for any actor.
But with Daniel Craig already committed to returning as 007, the next best thing for an actor would be the role of a villain. And in an interview with The London Evening Standard, Kevin Spacey talked about his urge to play an iconic Bond villain, especially if Sam Mendes returns as director.
"I would hope [Bond producers] the Broccolis agree [that I would make a good Bond villain] and that Sam is going to do the next one," Spacey said. "That would be a lot of fun. I adore him. I had some of the most seminal experiences of my career with him, both a decade ago with American Beauty and last year with Richard III [at the Old Vic]. It would be sublime to work with him again. It doesn't surprise me he has had such a big success with Bond."
Spacey has played villain roles before in movies like Seven and Superman Returns, and we would totally be on board with him as a Bond foe. He has the ability to get under an audience's skin, despite being about as physically imposing as a desk lamp. Let's hope he's at least considered for the next Bond go-around.

Giga-retailer Walmart made waves this holiday season by offering the iPhone 5 for well below its suggested retail price. Now it's going to start offering Apple's top-of-the-line smartphone unlocked and on prepaid Straight Talk plans beginning January 11.
The iPhone 5 will cost US$649 in a 16 GB configuration -- or the same price of the phone from Apple, unlocked. Walmart will also sell an unlocked iPhone 4 8 GB for $449. Customers will be able to use either phone on a Straight Talk unlimited voice, text and data plan for $45 per month, with unlimited international calling added in a $60 per month plan.
To coincide with the deal's rollout, Walmart will offer customers an option to pay for their handset on a promotional $25 per month financing plan. All prices will be good online and in retail stores.

Here is my assessment of the important warm fashion colour red for Autumn 2011

- 1/2 cup malted milk powder
- 7 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Make crust: Preheat oven to 350. Combine wafers and sugar in food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add butter and pulse until crumbly, about 10 seconds. Press mixture evenly over bottom and slightly up sides of a 10-inch spring-form pan (mixture will be dry.) Bake until firm and set, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
Make filling: Place malted milk balls in a large Ziplock bag. Seal bag and crush candies with a rolling pin. Set aside 1/2 cup of crushed candies for garnish. In a large bowl, stir ice cream, malted milk powder and remaining crushed candies. Spread evenly over bottom of crust, smoothing top. Freeze until firm, at least one hour.
Make glaze: Place chocolate in a small heatproof bowl. Bring cream to a boil in a small pan over medium-high heat. Pour over chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes. Whisk until completely smooth. Working quickly, pour glaze over pie and spread evenly. Sprinkle with reserved crushed candies. Freeze until firm, at least 3 hours or overnight.
Remove cake from freezer 10 minutes before serving and let sit at room temperature. Just before serving, run a sharp knife around pan edges, loosen pan sides and unmold to a plate. Use a sharp knife to cut cake into wedges.


text: Hey, I am in an AP Photography class at my high school, and I need to turn in a portfolio of 12 pictures based on the theme of my choice. My theme is "A look into the contrast of pure and tarnished". The wording is not exactly set in stone but the project will be on good vs evil more or less. I already have some silhouettes and lightning shots, but I was hoping I could get some ideas for more pictures. Any help is greatly appreciated. And again, the theme has to do with light and darkness through a picture. Thanks in advance!
