New Fiberglass F-16 Kit from... UKRAINE !
look here : https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/show...773#post3882636
I started a Thread with NEW Fiberglass F-16 KIt At present I am still windering it I fit an EDF inside or if I convert it to a Pusher Prop. Complete Kit Weight 380 Grams (fuse=200, wings=128, tailrons=31, fin=21) --> Advices will be welcomed on this choice (EDF or Pusher) and on the type of FAN I can fit-in if I choose EDF. Does soeone has already purchased AND FLY this Kit ? ImagesView all Images in thread |
I bought it from that guy : firstname.lastname@example.com
ask him a quore including shipping to your country for a " F-16 "FIGHTING FALCON". I paid $155 including shippement to France |
I had one in my hands not too long ago. It was very well made and could be a lot of fun although grossly out of scale it was very pretty.
The guy had a mini fan in it that fit just fine and it was nice and light. Forget the pusher prop though. No need and that prop on the back will not do it justice at all. Too small for me though. Steve |
look inside !
here is a high res image of the inside
so, now that I decided thanks to you all to make it an EDF rather than a pusher prop, I need advice to see : - how to fix the FAN - can I use a Schuebeler DS30 rather than a MiniFAn - Do I need to built a ducting ? only exaust or also intake ? what diameter ? keept in mind that The exaust diameter is 68mm and the internal diameter available inside the fuselage is up to 90mm. Total weight of the Kit (fuselage + wings + tailrons... is only 380 grammes). |
it would be a good idea to check the intake area first, before deciding on the EDF unit. Have fun with fans Klaus |
signing on, looks like I'll be building mine with you Bmaaa I need to get this finished for the August EDF fly-in at Kentucky.
Never having seen the Schuebeler DS30, I don't know if the size and mounts are compatable with a Mini-fan, or not. At the worst, you may have to wrap the fan with foam and slide it inside the fuse, till it fits in place. I don't see why you could not use it, though, any simular sized fan should be adaptable to this kit. I know it has been said that ducting is not necessary for this jet, however I may try and make something to fit it out of some type of plastic. Tom - Milwaukee |
Manufacturer's building "Instructions"
I thought I better throw this out now, so you all know what your up against with this jet.
There is NO Manual for building this plane, I wrote to the Importer for some type of instructions and this is what I received. The INSTRUCTION ON ASSEMBLY of PLANE F-16 "Fighting falcon" 1) To establish preliminary impeller in a ring from polyfoam in a fuselage. To not glue! Further moving impeller in a fuselage reaches(achieves) the necessary centering. 2) To establish a longeron in a fuselage, to fix by ciakrin. To put epoksid glue on root nervurs wings, a fuselage, on a longeron on his(its) perimeter, an end face of Kiel. To establish these details on a place and to give to harden to glue. 3) To establish on a place of half of stabilizer, To fix their screws so that they could rotate. 4) To fasten on a place servo. To connect drafts to wild boars (fastenings) the stabilizer. 5) To establish in îáòåêàòåëü a nose the receiver. To establish and draw a collar the accumulator to a plywood platform. A regulator of a course to fix an adhesive tape in a convenient place between the motor and the accumulator. In 1-2 centimeters before the beginning of the accumulator to drill apertures in a fuselage in diameter 15ìì. Above these apertures to fix by ciakrin air inlets of cooling of the motor. 6) To establish a lantern. To check position of the centre of gravity and to fix impeller epocsid glue. To establish a cowl. It's all - fly! BEST REGARDS! LORD HELP US ALL!!! ------------------------------------- Hi Oliver, Thank you for the Info on the Schuebeler DS30 Fan!! I'll be installing a Minifan in mine, although from the data sheet it looks like a Midifan could possibly fit too. Tom - Milwaukee |
Hi guys,
I have this plane with a Mega 2/turn and WeMotec fan. There are a couple of things you should look at. First once you install the fan and motor and attach the wings there is no way to adjust anything. Randy from dynamoelectrics had me do an instruction manual on it but do to a problem getting kits it never went any further. There are also some major mods that have to be done to make it stable Talk to Randy and if OK with him I will post pictures and instructions. digger |
This is odd. I finished up a couple of projects, and was trying to decide what next. Last night I got out my F-16 and looked it over- I figured if I could get the fan mount figured out, the rest will be easy I ended up shrugging and tossing it all back in the box, then today here is this thread The one thing I noticed was that the inlet lip for the fan was a perfect, tight fit in the fuse. Today it occured to me to make formers traced from the inlet, with the fan placed in them to center in the fuse. Pert simple, so that's what I'm gonna do. Still have to decide if I am going to cut the mounting ears off the fan- my method here will be much simpler if I do. I am thinking two mounting rings- the back one glued to the fuse, the front glued to the fan only. The front ring will have a couple of hard blocks inset- screws coming from the outside of the fuse will hold the whole thing in. Make sense?
I'll use the inlet ring for the front ducting, and a tail cone tube for the rear. I'm open to ideas and suggestions, but to me what I have seems pretty light, quick, and efficient. And will almost automatically line itself in the fuse. BTW- Seems I have the only grey w/ graphics one I've seen, anyone else? Bill Davenport AMA 28141 |

Orange Chocolate Chip Lace Cookies, homage to Liz Larkin
Author Notes: Last year, for the first time, I tasted a chocolate chip cookie from Heaven. It was in a plain brown bag, sold to me by Liz Larkin, the Scone Lady of Pound Ridge. It was crispy, thin, almost candylike on the tongue. All year I have thought about this cookie and tried out different versions of chocolate chip recipes. In the past, I have always returned to the Toll House Recipe, but this time I was determined to keep going. I finally found a similar recipe in Desserts, by Nancy Silverton. I love the combination of orange and chocolate so I added some orange zest. I also added a little more flour and subtracted the nuts. —luvcookbooks
Serves several dozen
- 1 cup butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons boiling water
- 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour
- 2 cups chocolate chips
- zest of one orange
- pinch salt
- Soften butter slightly. It should be malleable but not melted. I put it on top of the oven or stove and turn the sticks around. My friend slices it into a bowl and softens it in a low oven. Beat the butter until it is a soft mass. I use a wooden spoon. Beat in the sugars until the whole mass is homogeneous.
- Beat in the eggs, vanilla and salt. Mix the baking soda and boiling water together. Add to the batter. Stir in the flour, chocolate chips and orange zest.
- Chill the dough for about two hours in the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 325. Pick up small pieces of dough and roll into half inch balls. Place on parchment paper covered baking sheet. They will be sticky. Flatten each cookie and chill the sheet in the refrigerator for about half an hour, until firm.
- Bake 12 minutes per sheet, reversing after 6 minutes, two sheets at a time. Move the top sheet to the bottom after six minutes and vice versa and turn the front of the sheet to the back. When the cookies are done they will be golden brown except in the center. They will spread quite a bit and be very soft.
- Cool the cookies completely and then remove them from the parchment paper with a spatula. They will be crispy, tender, and almost candylike. Thank you, Mrs. Larkin!

STORM LAKE, Iowa — Republican presidential hopeful Ben Carson rode his outsider image, calm demeanor and compelling life story to the top of a chaotic GOP field earlier this fall.
Since then, however, the retired neurosurgeon who lives in West Palm Beach has fumbled on foreign policy, lashed out publicly at scrutiny of his life story and has had to referee a tug-of-war among his closest advisers — all while watching his rivals capitalize on his troubles.
But six weeks before voting begins, Carson's campaign insists that he is still poised to win in first-to-vote Iowa, where Carson plans to concentrate his campaign through to the Feb. 1 caucus.
The blitz comes amid...

Barclays Prepares to Cut Jobs at U.K. Investment Bank
Howard Mustoe and Ambereen ChoudhuryBarclays Plc, Britain's second-largest bank, is preparing to cut jobs at its investment bank and has begun consulting with U.K. employees.
This "exercise is being carried out so that we can start to effect some of the strategic changes" to be announced on Feb. 12, the London-based bank said in a statement today.
Chief Executive Officer Antony Jenkins, 51, who took charge in August after the bank was fined a record 290 million pounds ($460 million) for manipulating Libor, is preparing to announce how he will revamp the bank. Shrinking the investment bank would partly reverse former his predecessor Robert Diamond's expansion into equities and mergers advisory in Asia and Europe following its acquisition of the North American operations of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. in 2008.
Barclays started eliminating some European investment banking jobs in December and may make cuts in Asia in coming weeks, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The reductions may be equivalent to 5 percent to 10 percent of the investment bank, or about 2,000 employees, said the people, who asked not to be identified because they weren't authorized to speak publicly. The securities unit employs about 9,000 in the U.K. and about 24,000 people globally.
The firm has said it will eliminate businesses that are a risk to its reputation and aren't profitable enough as regulators toughen capital requirements. Barclays's investment-banking head, Rich Ricci, said in September the bank would review products and services that could harm its reputation, citing parts of the bank's tax advisory business and the sale of structured products to small-and medium-sized businesses.
Banks Shrinking
Investment banks are shrinking as revenue struggles to rebound amid Europe's sovereign debt crisis. UBS AG, Switzerland's largest lender, said in October it will cut about 10,000 jobs and retreat from some trading businesses. Morgan Stanley, with securities operations in London, plans to cut about 1,600 jobs from its investment bank and support employees, a person with direct knowledge of the matter said on Jan 9.
Financial firms have cut more than 115,000 jobs globally since the start of 2012 as banks seek to curb compensation costs and turn back from capital-intensive businesses, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"While the restructuring of investment banking at UBS is very much driven by the Swiss regulator, the changes that are to come at Barclays reflect more the structural change that we observe in banking," said Tom Kirchmaier, a fellow in the financial-markets group at the London School of Economics.
Employers cutting 20 or more jobs in the U.K. must hold a period of consultation where workers are told why their roles will be eliminated and what alternatives are available, according to the government's information website.

Between timely hitting and sound defense, Ethan Martin has been able to rack up wins even when he hasn't necessarily been at his best. On Sunday, he recorded another victory, this time on the back of his strongest Triple-A start.
The Phillies No. 2 prospect gave up two hits over a season-high eight innings to pitch Lehigh Valley to a 5-0 blanking of Toledo at Coca-Cola Park.
"I had not had one game where I had thrown up zeros across the board, so that was big," Martin said. "There has always been that one run or two runs, even when I've been throwing good. Putting up zeros today was big for me.
"There have been times when I've not had my good stuff and I've given up runs, but the team has been scoring a pretty good bit lately. In those games where I haven't had my good stuff and given up a four- or five-spot, they have scored a lot more."
As well as the 2008 first-round pick pitched, he can still thank his teammates for doing their part in staking him to an early lead and keeping baserunners to a minimum.
The 24-year-old right-hander used an inning-ending double play to erase consecutive walks leading off the second and got more help from his defense in the third to double off Gustavo Nunez, who had singled to center field.
An inning later, MLB.com's No. 71 overall prospect got out of another jam by rolling a double-play ball to work around a one-out single and an error.
"They were great. Whenever I needed a ground ball, they executed it. They played great behind me," said Martin, who walked three batters and struck out two. "Every chance they had, they made it. Michael Martinez made a great play going at the wall and my catcher, Steven Lerud, did a great job behind the plate and called a good game."
Martin threw 56 of 100 pitches for strikes and retired 13 of his final 14 batters. He asked to come back out for the ninth for a shot at his first shutout in three years, but his pitch count -- along with the fact that he threw 110 pitches on Monday in Columbus -- caused the IronPigs to turn to the bullpen.
The victory gave Martin a share of the International League lead in wins, tying him with Durham's J.D. Martin and Louisville's Greg Reynolds.
It marked the first time in 16 Triple-A starts that Martin -- acquired by the Phillies in the deal that sent Shane Victorino to the Dodgers last July -- has not allowed a run. In each of his previous eight wins, he had allowed at least five baserunners. And in four of them, he had surrendered at least four hits and two runs.
"This is right up there," said Martin, who throws two- and four-seam fastballs, a curveball and changeup. "Just getting through eight innings was a big accomplishment. I've had high pitch counts and not been able to get to seven or eight innings with consistency. Today was probably the most ground balls I've got in a game in a long time.
"The four [wins] in a row are nice, but I want to keep building off this outing. I've had a lot of walks, but I have a good feel for my stuff. I just need to stay straight from the mound to the plate and not drift off or pull out. I need to stay back over the rubber and let my lower half guide me to the [catcher's] mitt."
Luis Garcia worked around a hit in the ninth to seal the IronPigs' eighth shutout of the season, fifth in June and third against the Mud Hens in 12 days.
Lehigh Valley's Cesar Hernandez was 2-for-4 with an RBI, Steve Susdorf reached base three times and scored twice and Martinez collected two hits and two RBIs.
Toledo starter Shawn Hill (1-11) suffered his IL-leading 11th loss after surrendering five runs on 10 hits and four walks over 5 2/3 innings.

And They Lived Lustily Ever After
Although not every story is a re-telling of a recognizable fairy tale, this is a great book for those who want something a little different in their erotica. These 18 short stories range from whimsically amusing to darkly eerie, and some are hot enough to make you want to read them again and again. It's not overly graphic though, so people looking for explicit hardcore "wank fodder" may not appreciate it as much.Published:
Lots of variety. Some very unusual plot lines.
A few weren't arousing or didn't make sense.
This product was provided free of charge to the reviewer. This review is in compliance with the
FTC guidelines.
Ahhh, I'm dying to read this! Great review!
Nice review. No pics in the book?
Great review, as usual I'm still working on this one but do like it - it's a change from the anthologies I usually read.
I'm working on reading mine. It's sitting in my pile, but I just haven't gotten around to it. x.x
Thanks for the comments
Charlotte--- no, no pictures. That would have made it really interesting though! -
Great review! Just curious what your favorite erotica is? I should look into getting some!
Currently, mine is Can't Help the Way That I Feel, edited by Lori Bryant Woolridge.
Alan favors Afternoon Delight, edited by Alison Tyler, which is my second favorite. -
Thanks! They are now Wish-Listed!
I really want to read this one - it sounds interesting!
Great review! -
i should read more

Keywords: House
My name is Pam Meisl Smith, and I'm married and work as a Insurance Field Rep for CNA. I also do part time hypnotherapy for weight loss and smoking.
Eric and Pam purchased this house in 2006
I really love sunny hot weather 95% of the year and the Palm Springs Area contains everything I enjoy!
Laying in the sun by the pool. Going to the nearby Casinos. Shopping in Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage. Wine Tasting in Palm Springs. Playing Golf and Hiking. Bike Riding and Going to Movies in at our Nearby IMax and the River in Rancho Mirage.
Had a terrific time with friends at this lovely home over a long weekend. The neighborhood is quiet, the property private and has excellent views. You will be in an wonderful area in Cathedral City which is convenient to all the little towns in the area, yet out of the hub of Palm Springs traffic and noise. Pam was terrific is getting the rental all set up (I only made the request a couple of days in advance and was lucky it was available) and has placed little notes and instructions to answer your questions on operating the equipment (pool & hot tub). My friends and I will most definitely consider Pam's place again for future trips to the area!
My husband and I chose this house for our annual winter getaway based on the photos of the backyard, and Pam's place did not disappoint! Comfortably lived-in and generously appointed with everything one could need on the inside (right down to the thoughtful toiletries provided in each bathroom), it's really all about the amazingly private backyard, backing onto a wash and hiking trails, complete with heated swimming pool and cozy hot tub for stargazing (and listening for coyotes) at night. Conveniently located between the mid-century mod vibe of Palm Springs and the great shopping of Palm Desert, Cathedral Cove is a charmingly eclectic enclave located in the Santa Rosa foothills, affording great valley and mountain views. Pam was very easy and flexible to deal with, and we would highly recommend this vacation rental for anyone wanting a private, relaxing, and affordable getaway. High marks for local Mexican eatery La Tablita and Trilussa's happy hour!
Very much enjoyed Christmas 2014 at this property. Very private pool and spa with views across the desert. Everything you need for a quiet weeks holiday is included in the house. Great base also to explore the area although we used it as a hideaway.
Property well kept however it could use an update but this did not stop us enjoying a great weeks holiday.
Communications with Pam and Eric before and during stay where excellent and they we very easy to deal with.
We would consider staying here again.
Nice, quiet private back yard with pool and hot tub. Great for hiking and bicyle, close to all amenities. Thanks Pam, see you next year!
My husband & I enjoyed our stay at this property very much. Our favourite features were the pool right outside the patio doors from the bedroom & living room & the privacy of the back yard. The house is situated in a lovely neighbourhood. It is easy to get to anywhere we wanted to go from this location & we always felt we were returning "home" after an outing. We are looking forward to when we can return to Palm Springs & would very much like to stay here again. We, also, appreciated how easy it was to make the arrangements for our stay with Pam.
I contacted Pam only three days prior to our stay because our other plans fell through, and I am sure glad I did! First of all, Pam was wonderful to work with, especially on such a last minute request. She made the whole rental experience great, and all instructions were clear and easy to follow.
The house itself was just what our group was looking for! We were coming in for an ice hockey tournament, and it was a wonderful place to go back to and relax after our games. The kitchen, dining area, and living areas were very comfortable, as were the bedrooms. It was the perfect amount of space for the six of us staying! The house was also very clean, and had so much more provided than I expected. I felt like I was staying at a friends house for the weekend!
The pool area and backyard was great too. Very private with no one to the back or left, and there were plenty of pool rafts and noodles to float on. We spent 85% of our time in the pool, and it was just perfect.

What you should know about spaying and neutering your pets
The pet population problem
Every year, millions of unwanted dogs and cats, including puppies and kittens, are needlessly destroyed. The good news is that every pet owner can make a difference. By having your dog or cat surgically sterilized, you will do your part to prevent the birth of unwanted puppies and kittens and you will enhance your pet's health and quality of life.
Pet behavior and pet reproduction
Contrary to what some people believe, getting pregnant — even once — does not improve the behavior of female dogs and cats. In fact, the mating instinct may lead to undesirable behaviors and result in undue stress on both the owner and the animal. Also, while some pet-owners may have good intentions, few are prepared for the work involved in monitoring their pet's pregnancy, caring for the newborns and locating good homes for all the offspring.
What is surgical altering?
During surgical altering, a veterinarian removes certain reproductive organs. If your cat or dog is a female, the veterinarian will usually remove her ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus. The medical name for this operation is an ovariohysterectomy, although it is commonly called "spaying." If your pet is a male, the testicles are removed and the operation is called an orchiectomy, commonly referred to as castration or simply "neutering."
While both spaying and neutering are major surgical procedures, they are also the most common surgeries performed by veterinarians on cats and dogs. Before the operation, your pet will be given a thorough physical examination to ensure that your pet is in good health. General anesthesia will be administered before the surgery making the procedure non-painful. You will be asked to keep your pet calm and quiet for a few days afterwards until the incision begins to heal.
What are the benefits of spaying and neutering?
Both operations lead to improved long-term health, prevent unwanted litters, and eliminate many behavior problems associated with the mating instinct.
Benefits to your female pet
Female dogs experience a "heat" cycle approximately every six months, depending upon the breed. A female dog's heat cycle can last as long as 21 days, during which your dog will leave blood stains in the house and may become anxious, short-tempered and actively seek a mate.
Female cats can come into heat every two weeks during breeding season until they become pregnant. During this time they may engage in behaviors such as frequent yowling and urination in unacceptable places.
Both female dogs and cats benefit from spaying, which eliminates their heat cycles and generally reduces the negative behaviors that may lead to owner frustration and, ultimately, a decision to relinquish the pet to a shelter. Most importantly, early spaying of female dogs and cats helps protect them from serious health problems later in life such as uterine infections and breast cancer.
Benefits to your male pet
At maturity (on average, 6-9 months of age), male dogs and cats are capable of breeding. Both male dogs and cats are likely to begin "marking" their territories by spraying strong-smelling urine on your furniture, curtains, and in virtually any part of the house. Also, given the slightest chance, males may attempt to escape from home in search of a mate. Dogs seeking a female in heat can become aggressive and may injure themselves and people by engaging in fights.
Neutering male dogs and cats reduces the need to breed and can have a calming effect that makes them less inclined to roam and more content to stay at home. Neutering your male pet also improves his health by reducing the risk of prostate disease, testicular cancer and infections.
What is the best age to spay or neuter my pet?
A dog or cat can be surgically altered at almost any age. Your veterinarian can advise you on the most appropriate time for your particular pet based upon its breed, age and physical condition.
Will the surgery affect my pet's disposition or metabolism?
The procedure has no effect on a pet's intelligence or ability to learn, play, work or hunt. Most pets tend to be better behaved following the operation, making them more desirable companions. Contrary to popular belief, the surgery will not make your pet fat. A balanced diet and exercise will keep your pet from experiencing the health risks associated with obesity. Ask your veterinarian to advise you on the best diet and exercise plan for your pet for each stage of its life.
Is the expense for the surgery really worth it?
Yes! This is a one-time expense that can dramatically improve your pet's quality of life. If you are still uncertain whether or not to proceed with the surgery, consider the expense to society of collecting and caring for all the unwanted, abused, or abandoned animals being housed in shelters — most with little chance of finding permanent homes.
Having your pet spayed or neutered is a part of responsible pet ownership and an important investment in your pet's long-term good health.

The fleet carrier Party Up loomed large in the transmet cockpit bubble of the drop ship. Its immense black length was bristling with gun sponsons, torpedo tubes, launch bays, and slowly spinning warning lights. Static crackled back across the communication link. The pilots exchanged glances as their latest hail to the ship went unanswered.
"I reckon we'd better tell the Admiral about this." Copilot Lardman Hg3 drawled in his south-Imperatrixian accent.
"Continue the landing approach. Bay 12." The pilot replied after a moment's consideration.
He stood up from his acceleration couch with a sequential click as the half-dozen neural connectors slid out of his gray armored suit. The magnetic locks in his boots made his journey back into the troop bay seem like he walking on molasses or honey. He went rigid and slammed his boots down in a salute when entered the bay. Admiral Regel tore his attention away from the hooded and drifting form of Guthry.
"What?" Regel snapped.
"My lord admiral, the bridge is not responding to our hails." The pilot remained at attention. "Landing control is not responding either."
"Are they still broadcasting auto-docking signals?" Admiral Regel fidgeted with his ornamental naval saber.
"Yes sir, we can dock just fine. I just felt you should know about the…unusual circumstances."
"Yes, thank you." Regel waved the pilot back to the cockpit.
The pilot stomped away and Regel turned his attention back to Guthry. The fugitive was shackled to a grab-bar and floating in the zero gravity so that one of the honor guards had to occasionally shove him back down. With the psycho dampener and the silencer hood on he was theoretically deaf, mute, blind, and incapable of using any esper powers. All the same Regel felt uncomfortable in his presence, especially after hearing the unusual news.
"Something may have happened aboard the flagship," Regel explained to his honor guards. "It could simply be a communications failure, but when we dock I want you prepared to engage any threats."
The drop ship was like a tiny glittering beetle as it slid through the immense screw-hatch that opened into bay 12. The bay was cavernous and mostly dark, but spot-lit to illuminate each individual birth. Nearly all of the drop ship berths were empty. A handful of strake-winged corvettes hung vertically from docking clamps near the ceiling, their transmet windows dark and their menacing gun pods limp and silent. Fighters, returned from duty on earth, were arranged in neat rows near their deployment tubes on the top tier of the large tri-level small-craft spindle. Admiral Regel noted with growing unease that there was no activity around the fighters when they should have been swarming with maintenance crews preparing them for a new mission.
The drop ship slid easily into one of the berths. Docking gantries hissed and extruded like quicksilver knives, melding seamlessly with the hull of the ship and securing it in place. Recessed white lights sparkled to life in pairs until they had fully illuminated the disembarkation platform and the ramp that descended to the interior corridors of the ship. The opening door of the drop ship was an echoing cacophony in the dead-silence of bay 12. Other than the echo there was only the soft drone of technology: computers humming, the drop ship's zero-point reactor softly disengaging its quantum funnel, and the pneumatic gel crinkle of joints shifting in the armored suits of the Imperatrixians.
"Where's the welcoming party?" The human ambassador asked with a nervous smile.
Admiral Regel ignored the pink-skinned creature and gestured to two of his honor guards. They hopped out of the drop ship door and onto the disembarkation platform. They were well-drilled and calm, sweeping the slowly rotating barrels of their idling nuclear reapers back and forth. They advanced to the ramp that descended into the ship's innards and then turned to motion the other guards forward. Admiral Regel stepped out onto the platform and his sense of foreboding grew even deeper. The ship was more than silent. Beyond just the quiet of inactivity it was as if the ship were lying in state.
"My Lord, this worries me." Nailmuk, leader of the honor guard expressed his concern.
Nailmuk had Linus Guthry slung over his shoulder like a duffle and he brandished his oversized sidearm in his other hand. Regel glanced at him and was about to reply when there was a strange sound almost like someone snapping their fingers.
Regel, Nailmuk, and the human ambassador stood just outside the doorway of the drop ship. A dozen meters away the honor guard had collected at the mouth of the hallway, ready to make a combat entry of the doorway there. The sound had originated from a point almost equidistant between the drop ship and the gathered honor guards. There stood a human.
The man was stooped and his shoulders moved up and down in great heaving intakes of breath. His eyes were crazed, absolutely mad, and swung bestially around in his sockets. The human was strikingly pale skinned and red-haired, wearing only ragged shreds of clothing. His fingers were bloody and raw and his face and torso were covered with a variety of superficial wounds.
"What in the name of Almighty Commer-," began Admiral Regel.
There was another snap followed closely by a third. Two more humans, identical to the first, appeared on the disembarkation platform. Admiral Regel was about to issue a takedown order when the situation became entirely out of control. Displaced air rushed over Regel as more and more of the bizarre human clones began to appear in short order. In the span of a second their number had grown from three to thirty. By the time the honor guard began firing there were more than a hundred of them.
"Back in the ship!" Nailmuk bellowed.
Admiral Regel hesitated for an instant, transfixed by the gory scene as dozens of humans were blasted into bloody chunks and dozens more continued to appear to take their place. Nailmuk shoved hard on Regel's chest and nearly sent him sprawling back into the drop ship's interior. The commander of the honor guard threw Guthry back into the drop ship and slid the door closed. Nailmuk's pistol began to speak loudly through the armored hatch.

This would have been the perfect gift for me when I was little! I loved arts and crafts. I'll have to consider doing this for my nieces for their birthdays this year. Such a great idea!

This is a cool idea. And since it comes every month, couldn't you kind of use a similar premise as Santa? "You'd better be good...your Babbabox is coming soon." Yeah, like that ;)

Sunday's win at Phillip Island marked the 50th time Jorge Lorenzo had celebrated a race victory in the MotoGP™ World Championship. His first had come in Rio a decade earlier, as he clinched a maiden success in the 125 class.
The Australian win was one of Lorenzo's most dramatic so far, dealing perfectly with the added challenge of compulsory bike changes and light rain. This marked his 29th win in the premier class and third at Phillip Island following those of the 250 class in 2006 and 2007, as well as his half-century across all categories.
"It is incredible to have achieved 50 Grand Prix victories at 26 years of age," commented the reigning World Champion. "It only seems like yesterday when I won in Brazil in 2003, but it has been ten years. I am very proud of this and I hope to win a few more in the future!"
The two-time MotoGP™ title winner certainly has reason to be proud, as only six others riders in the history of the World Championship (which dates back to 1949) have achieved more wins than his 50: Giacomo Agostini, Valentino Rossi, Angel Nieto, Mike Hailwood, Mick Doohan and Phil Read. However, only Rossi and Hailwood had more victories than Lorenzo by the time they were 26.
Two-time title winner Casey Stoner, who retired at the end of 2012, achieved 45 victories across his World Championship career and of the other current riders only Dani Pedrosa nears Lorenzo's win tally, with 48 victories to his name.

A father was convicted today of murdering his five-year-old daughter after he drove his car into a freezing river with her on the front passenger seat.
A jury at Birmingham Crown Court took five hours to find 42-year-old Christopher Grady guilty of murdering Gabrielle Grady.
He was also convicted of attempting to murder his then six-year-old son Ryan Grady, who survived after being pulled from the water by police.
Grady had warned his children's mother Kim Smith she had ten seconds to say goodbye to them before he drove into the River Avon in Evesham, Worcestershire, on February 11 last year.
There was no reaction from the public gallery when the verdicts, both by a majority of 11 to one, were delivered.
Judge Mr Justice Lindblom had earlier warned against any outbursts.
The judge said he would sentence Grady on Tuesday morning.
Grady showed no visible emotion as he was found guilty, but he had waved to his mother as he entered the dock from the cells, and nodded to the clerk as he prepared to ask the jury for its verdicts.
Before adjourning sentence, the judge told the court that he had yet to read victims' impact statements in the case and wanted to know more about the effect of the offences on Ryan.
The judge said: "What I propose is not to proceed to sentence straight away. There is one aspect of the sentencing exercise which needs to be considered and upon which I shall need some assistance.
"In the course of the trial, the court has not heard very much, if anything, as to the effects of what took place on the 11th of February 2010 on Ryan, in a psychological sense, either in the short term or the long term.
"It does seem to me that that is an aspect of the sentencing exercise which is likely to be important."
The judge then informed Grady that he would face a mandatory life sentence when the minimum term for the offences is decided next week.
In a statement read on the court steps, Miss Smith said: "Although Christopher Grady is facing a deserved jail term, this does not take away the fact that myself and my family were robbed of our Gabby just over one year ago and that will stay.
"We are still living with the loss and devastation caused by his actions on that day.
"What must also not be forgotten is what my son Ryan also went through on that day.
"Not only the trauma of the events but that he also lost his sister who was also his best friend.
"I am extremely proud of him as I am my other two children, for their strength despite their young ages.
"Maybe now after today's verdicts we have the chance to move forward knowing that Grady is paying for what he has done."
In a short written statement to the media, the mother of Christopher Grady, Valerie Hubbarb, said: "I consider the trial of my son has been a fair one and I would like to publicly thank the judge, the lawyers and the jury.
"Unfortunately there are no winners in this case. We are all losers, as our darling Gabby is no longer with us."
Alex Warren, crown advocate for the Crown Prosecution Service in the West Mercia region, said: "This is a tragic case in which Grady, motivated by anger against his ex-partner, has caused the death of his young daughter and subjected his young son to an appallingly traumatic experience.
"Though it was never in dispute that Grady drove his car, containing the two children, into the River Avon, there were issues that the court needed to resolve about his intentions and state of mind at the time of the incident.
"The jury accepted the prosecution's case, namely that Grady intended the consequences of his actions."
Mr Warren added: "Our thoughts are with Kim Smith and her son Ryan, who have lost a daughter and a sister, and we continue to extend our sympathies towards them."
Miss Smith, who punched the air as she left the court building, said Ryan, now aged seven, was doing well despite his ordeal and had asked her this morning about the outcome of his father's trial.
She said: "He's seven now and he's doing really well, really well.
"He's not got anything wrong at the moment but we keep things in mind, he's a little boy."
Asked to describe the moment Grady arrived outside her Evesham home telling her to "say goodbye" to her children, she said: "Horrifying, the worst experience ever, absolutely shook to the core.
"He said, 'be outside, you have ten seconds to say ta-ra to the children, the kids'."

homework and food weekend
saturday's mouthwatering watermelon
and tomato toast
and cold cucumber soup.
melon, tomato and cuke, compliments of terra firma farms, and all completely delicious.

your soup looks so delicious, shash! care to share the recipe?
shanna - 7:42 AM
- dandelion said...
mmm, that all looks very yum - and so refreshing... strangely I have just this weekend rediscovered the joys of tomatoes on toast, although I have been eating little cherry toms...x
- shash said...
hey shanna and d,
the recipe is super easy and is loosely based on fannie farmer's. i only had one and a half cucumbers, so you may want to multiply this. this was good for about 3 servings.
puree together:
1 and 1/2 cucumbers
1/2 an onion
4 cloves or so of garlic and
1/2 cup of veggie stock
in separate bowl mix:
3/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup half and half
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (i used white balsamic)
1/2 cup veggie stock (it's in both puree and this part)
cayenne, black pepper, salt and dill
add puree to above and chill for a few hours and serve.
this recipe didn't call for it, but mint is probably also really good in it. i saw some other recipes online that included mint. yogurt could also be used instead of sour cream i bet. - 7:23 PM

looks delicious.

its always cool when it's the guy who intends to hurt others! period.but really - do you really think the "killer" thinks he is cool?
the main thing is he IS cooler than the dead guy - ironic since the dead guy has "assumed room temperature" and is actually "cooler" LOL!
so you feel sorry for someone that gets killed committing a violent crime????
you are not someone i would want for a huckleberry regards.
therefore i will go on record and say that i think it is cool as all get out to kill a violent criminal in the act of committing a violent crime. who cares? if he wasnt killed he would just hurt another innocent person.
blackstone you are one sad individual.

[authors: Kenneth M. Rosenzweig, Ross Pazzol, Blake J. Brockway]
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission published proposed rules that are designed to increase protections for customers and customer funds held by futures commission merchants (FCMs) and derivatives clearing organizations (DCOs). The proposed rules clarify that an FCM must comply with the CFTC's segregation requirements at all times, including on an intra-day basis, and that FCMs bear sole responsibility for all losses that arise from investing customer segregated funds.
The proposed rules require an FCM to adopt a risk management program that, among other things, includes written procedures for establishing a target level for the amount of the FCM's own funds deposited in customer segregated funds accounts (commonly referred to as a residual interest), which exceeds the sum of all of such customers' margin deficits. The proposal also prohibits FCMs from loaning funds on an unsecured basis to finance customer trading activity. In the event that an FCM cannot immediately certify to the CFTC that it has sufficient access to liquidity to continue operations as a going concern, the proposed rules would authorize the CFTC to require the FCM to transfer its customer accounts and cease operations.
Under proposed Regulation 1.23, if an FCM deposits unencumbered proprietary funds into its customer segregated funds accounts, the FCM cannot withdraw any such funds unless it has completed its daily segregation calculation and such calculation shows that there are excess segregated funds in these accounts. If a withdrawal exceeds 25% of the FCM's residual interest, then the FCM must immediately file a written notice with the CFTC and its designated self-regulatory organization (DSRO). The proposed rules also require an FCM to disclose its residual interest targets on the Segregation and Secured Amount Schedules to the Form 1-FR. FCMs would be required to electronically file their segregation, secured amount and cleared swaps collateral calculations with the CFTC and their DSROs every business day.
The proposed rules require all customer funds that are deposited with a bank or trust company to be available for immediate withdrawal upon demand by the FCM or a DCO. In addition, any depository that holds customer segregated funds would be required to provide the CFTC and the DSRO read-only electronic access to the accounts in which such funds are held.
The CFTC has additionally proposed to require FCMs to hold customer funds in secured amount accounts in the United States, except when necessary to margin, guarantee or secure customers' foreign futures or foreign options positions.
The proposed rules are available here.

How to run a 12.xxx
I have an 04 WRX, what does it take to get to the 12 second range (1/4 mile). Is it possible on the stock turbo or is a bigger turbo and intercooler needed?
Sponsored Links | |||
it takes a lot of money and about 320 whp to get into the 12's area. ive never seen any one on a stock trubo run 12s, but i remeber some one on here seriously talking about it.
There are people who run 12s on the stock turbo, but there's not many. It probably takes as much investment to run it on the stock turbo as it would to run it with a bigger turbo.
FP Green'd 04 STi
iwrxit ran a 12.960 with a stock turbo. Here's his setup
I just want to be able to take my friends STi and an M3, not too much to ask for
I just want to be able to take my friends STi and an M3, not too much to ask for
al5dsm is also going for a 12, he has stage 2 and a few other things plus a FMIC, He told me he was going to try for a 12 on friday night (last night) so I will have to see how that goes.
Does a Deadbolt TD04L still count as a stock turbo??

sure it can be done with a stock turbo, but it's much easier with a bigger turbo. my wagon should be in the 12's now.

text: 994 FXUS65 KGJT 241104 AFDGJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Grand Junction CO 504 AM MDT Fri Mar 24 2017 .UPDATE... Issued at 504 AM MDT Fri Mar 24 2017 Cancelled the Winter Weather Advisory for COZ009 (Grand and Battlement Mesas) as latest satellite trends show the drier and more subsident air working in from the west and already resulting in improving conditions over the Grand Mesa. Any wraparound moisture is having a tough time making it that far west and is showing enhancement over COZ010 and COZ012 but warming cloud tops are evident over the Grand Mesa. Snotels and webcams show most snow having ended over the Grand Mesa. Due to colder cloud tops and wraparound still working in from the east over COZ010 and COZ012 and extending down towards the San Juans, will keep the advisories going for those zones. Expect these areas to see improvement within the next couple hours though as the drier and more subsident air moves further eastward, pushing the wrapround precipitation east of the divide. && .SHORT TERM...(Today through Saturday) Issued at 410 AM MDT Fri Mar 24 2017 The upper low that brought unsettled weather to the region with valley rain, mountain snow and some thunderstorms is now located over southeast Colorado and quickly moving eastward into Kansas. Thunderstorms are seen wrapping around the center of the low over southeast Colorado with plenty of moisture and ascent blossoming across Nebraska and northeast Colorado according to the latest GOES-16 satellite imagery. Some showers are continuing across the central and southern Colorado mountains in the wraparound flow from the northeast and north, but overall radar and satellite trends show showers are weakening with cloud tops warming and overall thinning out. The northwest San Juans however should continue to see periods of moderate snowfall as this northerly flow favors the Uncompahgre Gorge area, as indicated by time heights showing decent ascent through about 6 am before drier and more subsident air moves in from the north. This drier and subsident air should bring an end to most precipitation across the region from the north and west with improving conditions throughout the late morning into the afternoon. Mostly sunny skies are expected this afternoon with temperatures rebounding towards near normal levels as a ridge of high pressure slides in from the west. This ridge of high pressure quickly slides east by Saturday morning with southwest flow increasing Saturday afternoon, leading to a mild and breezy day. Clouds will increase from the west as the next system approaches with showers increasing across eastern Utah late Saturday afternoon and spreading into western Colorado Saturday evening as the system quickly moves across as an open wave. This system looks fairly weak yet isolated thunderstorms are possible with again high snow levels. The best chance for precipitation will be Saturday evening and overnight with a couple inches possible for the higher terrain, mainly over the northern and central mountains. .LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Thursday) Issued at 410 AM MDT Fri Mar 24 2017 The weather pattern will stay active through the weekend and into early next week. Forecast guidance begins to diverge after Saturday regarding details for the remainder of the weekend and next week. The 00Z ECMWF cuts off Saturday`s trough at 500mb over the central high plains, slowing the system and allowing for some scattered snow showers to linger in the Colorado Rockies through the day on Sunday. The 00Z GFS is a bit more progressive and open with the wave, bringing precipitation to an end around late morning. Guidance is in agreement on a dry overnight on Sunday night into Monday morning. The 00Z ECMWF and 00Z GFS have come into better agreement regarding the next system to impact the area Monday afternoon through Wednesday morning, staying pretty progressive, bringing cloud cover and showers back into the region as the trough moves across the area. Model discrepancies exist for the next system after that, set to impact the area Thursday morning into Friday. Both models develop a strong closed upper level low pressure system over the southwest, with an extended period of wet weather throughout the day Thursday and into Friday of next week. The GFS is more progressive with this trough while the ECMWF keeps the low over the Great Basin. Temperatures aloft will be cooler than lately, but not altogether cold through the forecast period. Therefore, snow levels during precipitation will likely remain no lower than 7500 feet. These marginal temperatures will favor meaningful accumulations only above 8000 feet or so. Welcome rainfall for many valleys is certainly possible next week - however details will need to be ironed out as we go through the weekend. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Saturday morning) Issued at 410 AM MDT Fri Mar 24 2017 Some showers will continue through the morning hours, mainly across west-central and southwest Colorado, with low CIGS and breezy winds before coming to an end after 15Z. Mountain peaks will be obscured at times in snow. Improving conditions will be seen throughout the late morning into the afternoon with mostly sunny skies expected by afternoon. VFR conditions will be the rule from 18Z through Saturday morning. && .GJT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CO...Winter Weather Advisory until 9 AM MDT this morning for COZ010- 012-018-019.

Introduced in House (04/11/2013)
113th CONGRESS 1st Session |
To require the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency to withdraw the proposed order published in the January 19, 2011, Federal Register (76 Fed. Reg. 3422) pertaining to the pesticide sulfuryl fluoride.
Mr. Graves of Georgia (for himself, Mr. Schrader, Mr. Duncan of South Carolina, Mr. Bishop of Georgia, Mr. Poe of Texas, Mr. Westmoreland, Mr. LaMalfa, Mr. Crawford, Mr. Latta, Mr. Austin Scott of Georgia, Mr. Southerland, Mr. Stutzman, Mr. Yoho, Mr. Valadao, and Mr. Broun of Georgia) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce
To require the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency to withdraw the proposed order published in the January 19, 2011, Federal Register (76 Fed. Reg. 3422) pertaining to the pesticide sulfuryl fluoride.
The Act may be cited as the "Pest Free Food Supply Act".
The Congress finds the following:
(1) The food and fiber supply in the United States is the safest and most abundant and affordable bounty in the world due to efficient application of science-based technologies through the Nation's enduring heritage of farming and ranching.
(2) The Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") supported the transition from methyl bromide as a fumigant for pest eradication in 2005 under the Montreal Protocol.
(3) Sulfuryl fluoride was tested and found to be a safe and viable broad-spectrum post-harvest alternative to methyl bromide.
(4) In 2002, EPA presented the maker of sulfuryl fluoride with a Stratospheric Ozone Protection Award.
(5) Sulfuryl fluoride has evolved into the industry standard and is critical to elimination of pest contamination on foods and further processed food products derived from peanuts, cotton seed, cocoa beans, wheat, rice, corn, oats, oilseeds, nuts, dried fruits, and many agricultural commodities.
(6) Sulfuryl fluoride is also an important fumigant to control pests in various food and agricultural processing facilities.
(7) On January 19, 2011, EPA published in the Federal Register a proposed order to revoke the previously approved food uses for the fumigant sulfuryl fluoride.
(8) EPA issued the proposed order not because it would have any meaningful effect on public health, but because of the presence of excessively high levels of naturally occurring fluoride in certain drinking water systems.
(9) Sulfuryl fluoride is the smallest contributor to total fluoride exposure, and even EPA admits that "the elimination of sulfuryl fluoride does not solve, or even significantly decrease, the fluoride … exposure problems".
(10) The EPA has stated that, if sulfuryl fluoride is "phased-out from use, industry will be left with few viable sanitation alternatives".
SEC. 3. Direct withdrawal of January 19, 2011, Federal Register notice pertaining to sulfuryl fluoride.
The Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency shall withdraw the proposed order published in the January 19, 2011, Federal Register (76 Fed. Reg. 3422) pertaining to the pesticide sulfuryl fluoride.

text: Silicon dioxide (Silica) is an oxide of silicon. It is most commonly found in nature as sand or quartz, as well as in the cell walls of diatoms. It is used primarily in the production of glass for windows, drinking glasses, beverage bottles, and many other uses. The majority of optical fibers for telecommunications are also made from silica. It is a primary raw material for many whiteware ceramics such as earthenware, stoneware, porcelain, as well as industrial Portland cement. It is a common additive in the production of foods, where it is used primarily as a flow agent in powdered foods, or to absorb water in hygroscopic applications. It is the primary component of diatomaceous earth which has many uses ranging from filtration to insect control. It is also the primary component of rice husk ash which is used, for example, in filtration and cement manufacturing. Thin films of silica grown on silicon wafers via thermal oxidation methods can be quite beneficial in microelectronics, where they act as electric insulators with high chemical stability. In electrical applications, it can protect the silicon, store charge, block current, and act as a controlled pathway to limit current flow. A silica-based aerogel was used in the Stardust spacecraft to collect extraterrestrial particles. It is also used in the extraction of DNA and RNA due to its ability to bind to the nucleic acids under the presence of chaotropes. As hydrophobic silica it is used as a defoamer component. In hydrated form, it is used in toothpaste as a hard abrasive to remove tooth plaque. In cosmetics, it is useful for its light-diffusing properties and natural absorbency. Colloidal silica is used as a wine and juice fining agent. In pharmaceutical products, silica aids powder flow when tablets are formed.

- //The Shazam
Arena rock with melody and without cliches. The Who in the 70's without the attitude. What The Move would have sounded like if they were young and were making records in 2000. Too young to have raised your lighter at a show at your local arena? Well, get out the BICs, give it a flick and raise your arm man…because The Shazam are gonna rock your world.
This is their second recording, both produced by Brad Jones (producer of the pop classic Kon Tiki by Cotton Mather). They live with a lot of comparisons to Cheap Trick and other melodic rockers, but the sound is indeed their own.
From the resounding, melodic opener "Super Tuesday", with its clever lyric, to the chugging Aerosmith Rocks sounding, "Gonna Miss Yer Train", The Shazam puts on a clinic on how to write a song that has power without sacrificing structure and melody. Indeed, the great bands have done it like The Who and Cheap Trick. But it would diminish their work to pigeonhole them where this band has the goods without the hype and the '70s/'80s cartoonish, Spinal Tap, cock-rock personality.
Highlights for me are the following tracks in addition to the opener and closer mentioned above: "The Stranded Stars", great rock anthem; "RU Receiving", great pumping chorus; "Chipper Cherry Daylily" which reminds me of the very cool band The Creation (Shel Talmy, The Who producer, produced them in the '60s).
This is an example of the great underground music not being made by the major labels. This recording was released by The Not Lame Recording Company, a great independent label. Buy this today.
