Comments On Jan 13, 2014:Wonderful grip on any type of mud and trail riding! A remarkablely better tire than stock. Rides great on all surfaces except is a little rough when crossing over pavement. Other than that, this tire I believe is the best dollar per dollar tread on market!

Comments On Dec 04, 2013:Traction everywhere! Sand, Mud, Rocks, Hardpack, doesnt matter. These will pull you up a cliff. Just wish they made larger sizes. On a sidenote, you have to run the pressure a couple PSI lower in these because they have a real stiff carcass. Don't be afraid to try 3 or 4 PSI. I ran 3 PSI in the summer and it was perfect. Not too hard, not too soft.

Comments On Jun 12, 2013:This tire is better than expected . It is not the smothest tire out there but if you want a good mud tire this works well. I bait bear baits in the wisconsin swamps and i only get stuck when high centered.I carry about 150 # of bait and run over a lot of small sapling stumps and have never puncured one yet.i also pull an older 8 foot disk for my food plots at about a half angle witch is not easy on my 400 but with stock tires I was not able to do. The tread wear seems minimal but I don't ride much on hard ground.

Comments On Jun 08, 2013:These tires are awesome the picture definitely don't do them justice. The tread is made for traction they do have a little vibration at low speed but goes away at 15 mph. I had them in the mud and plowed in the snow they bite in great. Very pleased with this purchase and my friends are impressed every time when they first see them.

Comments On Aug 23, 2012:I had 26 inch Mudlites on my 2002 Kawasaki Prairie 650. The tires worked well but wore quickly and suffered mulitple punchtures from riding on shale and even had a stick punctue a tire. Six patches later I had enough. I bought the 26 inch Mudtrax in the XL (taller lug) size and do not regret it. They did everything that the Mudlites did but did it better. I never got a puncture and now the quad is owned by a friend who punishes it weekly and he can't say enough good things about the tires. Three of his co-workers were impressed enough to buy Mudtrax and all love the performance per dollar. They aren't meant for paved road but excel in gnarly terrain and soupy mud. They dig!

Comments On Mar 11, 2012:Bought these tires to replace my MudLites, tried them both on my Rhino and Grizzly.. They perform great on both machines, quiet on the road (no hop) and lots of tread for the trails.. Everyone is right that the picture doesnt show the actual tread height, they got meat..As for the wear they are doing well thus far have a couple thousand KM on them with no real signs of use..
Just my 2 cents worth but I would buy them again ..

Comments On Mar 01, 2012:The pictures do not do these justice! These are gnarly tires! They have some vibration under 5 mph on hard pack, but that was to be expected, they are smooth above 5 mph. They work great in snow, ice is not their strong suit, no surprise there either. They are good in rocks, golf ball sized to basketball sized and loose dirt. I haven't used them in the mud yet, but I would imagine they will work fine in that. The side lugs add some width to the tire so bear that in mind when measuring for these tires.

Workplace issues
From Radical Reference Wiki
Unconference participants framed this discussion in terms of the general direction of higher education within the context of neoliberalism. The main concerns we articulated at the start of the session included the ways in which change gets implemented within neoliberal contexts (technological change, especially); the adjunctification of the teaching faculty; and the availability of union membership to some librarians.
One participant noted that in conversations with coworkers, he found that a sense of pragmatism shapes popular professional belief that it's a "waste of time" for ALA and other professional organizations to make political/social statements, e.g., against the war in Iraq, or against the use of torture to obtain intelligence information. He noted that this pervasive attitude created a professional environment in which progressive librarians -- especially new librarians -- may quickly become discouraged and jaded. Other participants concurred that the profession (as represented by ALA) does not foster a climate for making resolutions. A related conversation occurred later in the session (in concert with the discussion of what's valued in the profession), when participants discussed whether the naming of our politics and work as "radical" scares people away, or if self-selecting as radical is a requirement that limits librarians' willingness to participate in activities like the Preconference Unconference, or to align with librarians involved in radical political and social action.
Next, participants identified additional signs of a shift in the academic & cultural contexts in which we work, including the recasting of citizens (and students) as consumers, and the valorization of technological innovation over other ways librarians practice our craft, or our other investments and responsibilities (e.g., reference and instruction).
We discussed the ways in which institutional bureaucracies and hierarchies stifle change. One participant favorably described a practice of supervisors meeting together as a roundtable and having discussions about management issues, without keeping minutes or notes, and just having conversations to facilitate collaboration and change. He noted that while other librarians in the organization were interested in these meetings, they were wary of meetings that would be closed and the lack of transparency that comes with no note-keeping.
The discussion then turned to participants' struggles with being young administrators and managers. Some participants found that while they initially wanted to employ a management style that was non-hierarchical, they ultimately needed to rely on the hierarchy to make things work. We discussed the possibilities of bringing other ways of organizing -- particularly community organizing -- into the workplace, and whether these strategies can work in organizations where the work culture is to do the minimum, or not chip in to aid each other. One participants who works in a place where the hierarchy is relatively flat discussed how coworkers in her organization support each other and make efforts to be inclusive -- to invite all staff to take part in social activities as a way to promote collective collegial spirit.
The discussion ended with a set of responses to the question of how to break down/through a culture of resistance to collaborative, collective effort among workers. One participant suggested that in a situation with a hierarchy, managers can be explicit about the existence and realities of that hierarchy while also striving to act in just ways within that context. Another participant suggested talking about the meaning of work with workers -- what work means may differ between employees, depending on class or socioeconomic background, for example. This conversation could also help managers understand how workers understand their role in & value to the organization. In response to this idea, a participant described her approach to learning about her staff when she took on an administrative role: she asked her staff to tell her what they do so she could understand their role(s) and how they think about their work.

Acting Under OrdersDoes John Key know the conditions facing Kiwi workers within US film and TV productions here? by Gordon Campbell |
Hi and welcome to the 52nd edition of Werewolf in which we examine the collapsing state of the public health system. As our cover story reveals this month, highly capable foreign specialists (such as Dr. Alejandro Jimenez) are coming here to work in our DHB system with the best of intentions, but are leaving in remarkably short periods of time – because their work is chronically undervalued, because of cost cutting delays in the provision of essential equipment and staff, and because the DHBs seem more interested in coming in under budget than delivering an exceptional standard of care. Why isn't this a political scandal? Because neither Labour nor National want to support any salvation programme likely to cost more money. So, there's a silent crisis in our public health system – known only to the staff who work in it, and the patients who use it.
In this edition, we feature two stories by New York-based writer Richard McLachlan. Richard provides an excellent update on climate change politics triggered by the release of Naomi Klein's new book on the subject. In his other article, Richard surveys and celebrates the styles of art evident in New York's subway system. Public transport, public art – either way, its quite a ride. In a long, fascinating article, authors Ed Vulliamy and Helena Smith revisit the December, 1944 betrayal of Greece by Winston Churchill, who sold out our Greek partisan allies to neo-Nazis and fascist collaborators lest a liberated Greece should become too left wing for British sensibilities. In effect, Greece was the first shameful act in the Cold War carve-up of Europe. Around the same time, the great black entertainer and activist Paul Robeson was being effectively written out of history for his political views – but as Werewolf reports this month, a major film is about to be made of his life, and his persecution. In his film column this month, Philip Matthews chooses his Best Films of 2014, and in a separate article, Werewolf analyses the media-savvy, mega-reflexive world of Mockingjay Part One, the latest entry in the excellent Hunger Games series. In our music column The Complicatist this month, we celebrate the fantastically diverse music of Arthur Russell, recently the subject of a major 2-CD tribute album. In his satirical column this month, Lyndon Hood goes all Gilbert and Sullivan about the our modern major-politico – and it's the only article in this issue that you can sing along with. In similar vein, we reveal the Tinder Profiles of some powerful people, who could well be wanting you to be their special someone.
Thanks once again to Lyndon for helping me post this 52nd issue online. If anyone out there ever wants to be involved and talk over some story ideas, contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com

Indonesian Daybed Frame
Great daybed
Was backordered, so took a few weeks to get it. Very easy assembly. Looks very nice. Got for extra sleep space in a great room, goes well with decor. Very happy with purchase!

Amazing bed/Great value!
I ordered this bed through my store and used my 15% off coupon, paid for the bed and waited. Lucky for me one came in about 3 weeks otherwise I would have had to wait until the end of September. It's a very solid bed. Very well made and SO EASY to put together. I did it by myself because I didn't want to wait for my husband to get home to help. The base the mattress lays on is fairly heavy but it can be put together by one person by following the directions. I used an 11-12" mattress and it fits the mattress cover that I also purchased through World Market perfectly. The mattress cover is very well made and looks custom. The finish on the bed was a grey. I thought it would be a darker brown with a grey wash like is shown on the left side of the picture online but mine was more grey. I think the finish is great and has a lot of depth and character but the grey didn't go with the guest room so I spray painted it black and sanded a few areas off to add some character and then went over those areas with a little bit of antiquing medium. I think this bed is so great for the money. It is very sturdy and well done. Order one - it's perfect for a guest room, sofa, covered porch etc. My store is only a mile away or so but it does become available online. Once they sell what's in the warehouse they say it's unavailable online until they get more in. If you want one, order it right away when it becomes available online and use a World Market Explorer coupon. You won't be sorry.

Gray Daybed is Terrific
I bought this bed because I fell in love with it in the showroom. I didn't even have a room to put it in! Now I have it on a covered porch, I got the gray mattress cover and it looks great with a green quilt and pillows on it. Meanwhile I am planning a move and already know this will be my new sofa/TV/reading spot. About the value, I have not seen a daybed in with this quality and style for less than $1000. Wood daybeds are expensive, thank you World Market for offering this.

surprised by support leg
I just picked this up the other day and put it together. I was very surprised to find a center support leg in the box after I had put the daybed together given the reviews I had read when picking this daybed out originally, what a great surprise especially as we plan to use our daybed as a sofa. Granted if you wanted to use a trundle under this daybed you would not be able to use the added center support leg.
For now I put one of my son's bunk bed mattresses (7" memory foam mattress) on the daybed to determine what height mattress would work best with this daybed and the cover I bought for it at World Market. I will definitely say the 7" mattress doesn't quite seem tall enough for the mattress cover as the cover is rather loose looking right now though I'm sure that could be easily remedied if necessary. I would say an 8 to 10 inch mattress would probably work best, but I have a feeling 8 inches might work better than 10 inches.

Fabulous Attractive Daybed!
I love, love, love this daybed!! I searched a long time for one and when it went on sale at Christmas I finally bought it and it was very competitive to other day beds I was considering. I needed it in my guest/son's bedroom since he took his bed to college I wanted something for him to sleep on for the holidays but would make the room a great TV room when he is at school.
It is extremely sturdy and heavy so I waited till he was home to help carry the big pieces up stairs to assemble. It was a quick assembly and for as few bolts it took it feels rock solid. I bought a twin size pillow top mattress with no box springs for it and it is a nice high height for me at 5' 8". I did not buy the burlap cover they sell because I wanted something nicer/softer. Though it looked nice with their gray burlap cover because the wood is a gray with a wash, which gives it a nice aged quality. I purchased a deep twin sized fitted sheet in gray but looking at other sources for daybed covers. It's a nice deep bench and if you put a good quality mattress on it anyone will feel they are sleeping in a normal bed.
As a sofa it's nice and deep so I bought lots of fun Eastern vibe pillows in bright colors & shapes.
Very satisfied with the purchase!

Just what I wanted!
I bought this spare-room bed for overnight guests. I used an 8" mattress another buyer suggested and it worked well.
When delivered, my husband had the box inside since it was huge! Since I'm only 5' tall, it did take 2 of us to put it together but pretty simple.
July 4, 2013
I had my eye on this daybed for months...I watched and waited until the big furniture sale they had in Jan. I absolutely LOVE this piece and it was SO very easy to put together. AND it's very sturdy considering it only required 4 (or maybe it was 5) extra long screws and bolts. It doesn't even jiggle. I put it together by myself, however I'd recommend someone to help. The back piece is kind of heavy so you will need someone to make sure it's held straight. But it didn't take long to put together even with one person.
The color of the daybed is a gray ash, kind of distressed but surprisingly it works well with any decor. I placed this piece in the corner of my really long living room because I needed a place for corner reading and for the occasional extra guest. So it's not necessarily primary seating. I bought a mid-quality twin mattress (I wouldn't recommend getting a cheap, flimsy mattress) and I also purchased World Market's burlap slipcover in spice orange. But I've also use a basic red quilt to cover it up and it worked fine. I bought pillows in different colors and styles and I just love the look! It sits and sleeps so comfortably. It's less expensive than the pull-out sleeper sofas and I'm very eclectic so this works great for me!
Later on I'm thinking about buying another one for my sunroom. Would be the perfect piece. If you need extra seating or a cool bed for a guest room and you don't want it to look like those futons from college dorm rooms, get this grown-up piece. You won't be disappointed.
June 3, 2013
Nice all around
It's a very nice day bed. Bought it today with a new mattress. It looks better in person than the picture, it doesn't do it justice. Can't wait to buy those beautiful throw pillows for it.

Surprised this point has never been raised before concerning what a tip should be based on. Reading this it does explain what all restraunts do for parties over 8 people, they assign automatic tips.
The idea of tips here was from his religious concept of tithing of 10%, which the Pastor is contending, why should you get more than God? I guess on that logic, the Pastor should have only ordered Bread and a glass of wine. I think I will open a general topic about tips. It is a good subject to discuss.
Man claiming to be pastor leaves waiter note: 'I give God 10%. Why do you get 18?'
By Dylan Stableford, Yahoo! News | The Sideshow – 3 hrs ago
(Reddit via Consumerist)
A man claiming to be a pastor apparently tried to stiff a waiter on a tip, explaining that his work for God absolved him of having to leave one.
A photo of the receipt, posted to Reddit.com, shows a bill for $34.93 with an automatic 18 percent gratuity (or $6.29) added above a blank space for an additional tip.
"I give God 10%," the diner wrote on the receipt, scratching out the automatic tip. "Why do you get 18?" He then wrote "Pastor" above his signature, and an emphatic "0" where the additional tip would be. (The automatic gratuity, however, had already been added to the total.)
The Reddit user who submitted the image explained in the comments section that the receipt was part of a total bill for a party of 20, which is why the gratuity was automatically added.
"Parties up to eight ... may tip whatever they'd like, but larger parties receive an automatic gratuity," the server wrote. "It's in the computer, it's not something I do."
The server added: "They had no problem with my service, and told me I was great. They just didn't want to pay when the time came."
Scribbling notes on receipts has become something of a trend. Earlier this month, the manager of a North Carolina Red Robin surprised an overdue pregnant woman by comping her meal.
"Once seated, a manager came up to us and started talking," the woman's husband told Consumerist. "He was extremely friendly and jokingly asked my wife if this was her last meal before heading to the hospital."
When the check came, a note from the manager next to her portion of the bill read: "MOM 2 BEE GOOD LUC."
"It was a pleasant surprise and made my tired-of-being-pregnant wife a little more cheery," the man said.

Could you outline the strawmen in that video? I'm not saying you're wrong, but I have heard people call valid arguments strawmen before because they think that the premise of the argument isn't valid (an example of this is when "A" calls the Tea Party racist, "B" says they're only calling the Tea Party racist because they don't agree with a black man's policies (regardless of what those policies may be), and then "C" calls "B"'s argument a strawman without knowing why "A" is actually calling the Tea Party racist.

I have a job. I work and earn an income; I'm not doing the same thing they are but I'm still working. Then I use the money that I receive for my labor and use it to buy their goods or services.

The liberals will ignore the situations where conservative values have merit
I question this. How exactly do I benefit from the fact that Newton discovered these laws? They existed before he discovered them. Discovering them did not change them. Granted, it was important that he wrote his thesis on it and it's great and everything, but I'm not sure that I exactly "benefit" from that.Sentios wrote:Newton for example did not discover the laws of motion in hopes that he could make money he discovered them to answer a curiosity; yet you benefit from that work everyday without contributing an equal value.
No one's saying that. As I said, how far does it go? Does it go until that person dies? Does it go until he transfers his intellectual property to another holder or recipient? Does it go until they sell their blueprints, formula, plans, schematics or whatever to another company for mass-production? Or do we have to keep on paying their decedents indefinitely, like a tithe enabling us to benefit from their machinations until the end of time?Sentios wrote: You should owe compensation to all those inventors and discovers yet you don't because an idea that their ownership expires is accepted. However that idea is arbitrary. You say people are entitled to something when it's convenient for you and they aren't when it's inconvenient for you.
Well, if you go to school and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in tuition to become a doctor, that's your prerogative, but it's not a right, and you have to pay for it yourself. If you can apply your skills and save lives or cure the sickly or injured, you deserves to be compensated for your services, which is why you go to school to learn a skill in the first place. There are certain costs involved in being a doctor; supplies, drugs, equipment, etc. Those prices are built into how much it costs for someone to be treated for a certain disease. Part of the problem with rising medical costs is government intervention. The more government controls there are, the more costly it becomes to conform to those controls. Insurance is a solution to rising medical costs. You and thousands if not millions of others pool your money so that if one of you is deathly sick there is enough money to help you. The reason Conservatives in America don't want to have the Government subsidizing health care is two-fold: First, because it's not a guarantee by the Constitution; Second, if health care becomes subsidized, everyone will want to take advantage of this new government program, even those who could realistically afford it themselves, and the costs will skyrocket and be passed on to the government. At that point, government will try to cut costs, and the fear is that they would do that by denying health care to people. Democrats say that won't happen, but we've seen it happen in the past, and that's what we want to avoid.Sentios wrote:Shifting away from philosophy for a moment; in a nation where people pay taxes the government has a responsibility to ensure their well being to protect their life and liberty. Medical care is a logical extension of that. It's ironic that American politicians are so against paying for preventative medical care with tax dollars when they're so eager to take 'preventive' military action.
How "rich" are we talking here? Are you talking about people that make upwards of $60K per year? Would you please define that a little better?Sentios wrote:As for poor people, wealth is largely relative. Even using market mechanics it's understandable that the rich create the poor; because the rich exist and have higher purchasing power the prices are more resistant to falling to a level affordable by people with lower purchasing power. Prices only fall when the rich are no longer willing to buy a product, typically because something newer or better comes out.
I was referring to his Laws of Motion. I went on to sayInnocence Abandoned wrote:Ruff, as much as the rest of this thread leaves me feeling neutral, and regardless of the validity of the points made on both sides of the argument, as a physics student I am appalled by your lack of knowledge pertaining to Sir Isaac Newton's work and the applications of his findings. And no, his work is not something only physics students need to be familiar with. If you had any idea how much his discoveries influenced the development of the technology that you use every day, you would be sure if you personally exactly "benefit" or not from it.
I am not saying that nothing he did was beneficial. I was only referring to the fact that "discovering" motion and writing the thesis on the Laws of Motion did not "change" the laws themselves, and that doesn't directly benefit anything I do. Does that make more sense?RuffDraft wrote:Now that said, Newton's work, as a whole, benefited all of mankind.
I see I've struck a nerve. I wasn't trying to belittle anyone or anything. But my question is, how exactly did the Laws of Motion allow the production of modern day technology?Innocence Abandoned wrote:No.
He didn't discover motion, and he didn't change the laws. He discovered the laws, which set the foundations for classical mechanics as we know them. It directly benefits you by allowing you the benefit of owning just about every piece of modern day technology you possess without it being nonexistent. But please carry on with your political debates, they're much more important than belittling the discoveries of the most influential scientist of the 17th century.
All of that does play a part in it. Do you have an idea to make preventative care more affordable? How about for those with preexisting conditions? Is there perhaps something other than insurance they could opt into? Maybe a charity that tries to get support from the general public for people that can't afford it? There are more solutions than just demanding the government step in.Whatis6times9 wrote:But the rising cost of medical treatment could be tied to the increase in the cost of drugs, the increase in the number of people who can't afford to pay passing the costs along to the people who can or they couldn't get health insurance because of the pre-existing condition exclusion, the number of people who can't afford to get preventive care for a instead wait until they need to be hospitalized for it, the amount of money exchanging in malpractice cases.
Except that when we invaded Iraq, we were expecting to have to push the surge for months, and we did it in about a week.Whatis6times9 wrote:As far as Iran goes maybe we should wait long enough to actually get an invasion force large enough to control shit. We had a hard enough time with the Second Gulf war and pretty much going it alone.
Part of the problem with rising medical costs is government intervention. The more government controls there are, the more costly it becomes to conform to those controls.
As for "preventive" military action, perhaps you can explain what our response should be when intelligence suggests that Iran may be developing a nuclear weapon and could intend to use it on us or one of our allies, such as Israel? Should we just wait until a couple thousand people die and then act, or should we strike first if we believe it is necessary to prevent that?
The rich do not create the poor. If anything the poor create the rich. If a poor person has an idea and he gets a group of people together to help him actualize it, they pool their resources and eventually create a product that is mass-producible, and everyone likes it and buys it, that group of people is now richer than the people that bought from them. This is what happened with Microsoft and Apple, as well as Wal-Mart, Johnson and Johnson, and practically every company in existence today.
I'm sorry, but that's not true. Do you think gasoline prices are high because oil companies are just maximizing their profits? Exxon Mobil made approximately $45 billion in 2009, but their profit margin was only about 9%. If what you were saying was true, their profits would have been above what they paid in taxes, which was about $116 billion in that year.Sentios wrote:Part of the problem with rising medical costs is government intervention. The more government controls there are, the more costly it becomes to conform to those controls.
This is just the same old, incorrect rhetoric. High prices exist because businesses think if they are entitled to how ever much compensation they want for their goods/services.
I recommend you do a search for how much money spent on education has increased, versus how test scores have fared. To summarize, education spending has skyrocketed since the 1960s, and test scores have remained flat. There is no correlation between the two.Sentios wrote:The cost of schooling for example went up when the government started investing money so people could get an education, ya know investing in the future of the nation. Schools decided they wanted to get more money per student rather than have more students and thus the prices have gone up astronomically.
If that's the case, do you have a solution to cut costs?Sentios wrote:As for healthcare we spend more money on it than any other country and get poorer results. It's because the system is fragmented, outdated, and too bound in your rhetoric to realize that current industry standards don't have the voice of the consumer in them anywhere.
Our most worthless ally? Do you understand how outraged that single comment makes me? Israel is not any manner of worthless. If anything they're the best, freest, and most Democratic nation in the entire Middle East. They've been trying to make peace with their neighbors Since 1948 (the year Israel was created by the UN). They've been attacked over and over by countries that have sworn to erase their existence if it's the last thing they do. Despite this, Israel has kicked butt and even offered to give back the land they acquired through completely legal pre-emptive strikes.Sentios wrote:Your response when a figment of your imagination is about to be used on your most worthless ally should be to do nothing.
This too fills me with outrage, but for a different reason. What you're telling me is literally that you would favor the rights a murderer over that of a victim. If A has B at gunpoint and a reasonable person (C) would conclude that A is going to kill B, C has an obligation to do what he feels is necessary to prevent A from killing B, even if it means killing A first.Sentios wrote:Also the choice your actually talking about is wait for a couple thousand people to die or kill a hundred thousand people first. You aren't preventing deaths, you're going 'me first, me first'.
Of course it does. If they are no longer poor, then by the definition you just posed, they are now rich. They have become rich. How is that not exactly what you're saying?Sentos wrote:That would be an example of how one could get out of being poor (though very text book, oversimplified, and wishful) that does not create the distinction between the poor and the rich.
But, didn't you just get through telling me that I owe more to people who helped make the technology that I utilize today? Now you seem to be saying that it's bad if rich people do just that?Sentios wrote:If I define the poor as those who have to wait decades before being able to afford the newest technologies then it's exactly as I explained. The rich will buy a good while the price is high and thus the price won't drop until it's lost the novelty it had, in essence feeding the poor cold table scraps. Today almost everyone has a refrigerator, rich or poor, but there was a significant delay in that occurring from their inception and that is what causes the ill effects associated with being poor.
This would mean that some people would get it for "free," at the expense of someone else, who would have to pay for those people to get it "free," as well as for themselves.
And if you ask them, they suggest that the government pays for it (instead of them paying for it themselves), which means they think it should be guaranteed, which it isn't and can't be.
I'm sorry, but that's not true. Do you think gasoline prices are high because oil companies are just maximizing their profits? Exxon Mobil made approximately $45 billion in 2009, but their profit margin was only about 9%. If what you were saying was true, their profits would have been above what they paid in taxes, which was about $116 billion in that year.
They don't force people to buy them.

Nice shoes
But not super dressy. Great with jeans or chinos, but the smoke/grey color is more casual than they may seem via online. Super comfortable and unique, recommended.

The Hornady name is synonymous with quality, evident in Hornady XTP Handgun Bullets. These hollow point bullets are designed not only for big game hunters but also law enforcement officials and self-protection. The bullets featured controlled expansion that includes six serrations dividing the bullet into six distinct and symmetrical sections.
Each section weakens the jacket, which in turn provides more controlled expansion at low velocities. This also ensures that at high velocities, fragmentation does not occur. In addition, this is one bullet without stopping power. Other features include the drawn copper jacket and swaged core for uniform expansion.

Walking With Dinosaurs Transports CPTV Audience Back Millions of Years
Walking With Dinosaurs, The Arena Spectacular: A CPTV Red Carpet Event
Walking With Dinosaurs, The Arena Spectacular will transport audiences back to prehistoric times on Saturday June 13 at 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. and Sunday, June14 at 8 a.m. on CPTV. The program, which is part of CPTV's Red Carpet Series, takes a behind-the-scenes look at how this spectacular arena show, which includes a fleet of 15 life-sized dinosaurs, was produced.
Viewers will see how the dinosaurs in the show, the largest being Brachiosaurus who is 36 feet tall, and 56 feet from nose to tail, were built from gargantuan aluminum frames that were covered with Lycra, cotton, foam and textured stencils. It took a team of 50 – including engineers, fabricators, skin makers, artists and painters, and animatronic experts – a year to build the original production.
Ten species are represented from the entire 200 million year reign of the dinosaurs, including the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the terror of the ancient terrain, as well as the Plateosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period, the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period, and of course, the Brachiosaurus.
The show also depicts the dinosaurs' evolution, complete with the climatic and tectonic changes that took place, which led to the demise of many species. With almost cinematic realism, Walking With Dinosaurs has scenes of the interactions between dinosaurs, and the audience sees how carnivorous dinosaurs evolved to walk on two legs, and how the herbivores fended off their more agile predators.
"Walking with Dinosaurs, equally as educational and entertaining for parents as children, is the closest you'll ever get to experiencing what it was like when they walked and ruled the earth," said Carmen Pavlovic, the CEO of The Creature Production Company, which is bringing the show to the United States.
Based on the award-winning BBC Television Series, Walking With Dinosaurs, The Arena Spectacular is narrated by an actor who guides the audience through the 200 million years when dinosaurs ruled the earth.
During the broadcast, CPTV will tell viewers how they can get tickets to this CPTV Red Carpet event.

Daughter No. 2 says 'I do' and honeymoons in Vermont
Sunday, March 10, 2013
I hope you will forgive me, but I need to brag a little.
There was more heart than dollars in the ceremony and party that followed — from their handwritten wedding vows to the frosted wine bottle centerpieces Ellie made for each table and the chocolate chip cookie bar favors she and some of her bridesmaids baked and wrapped for the guests, each sealed with a sticker bearing pictures of the bride and groom.
The wedding was everything I had hoped for Ellie and Jamie — stylish, tasteful and heartfelt. I hope their honeymoon is the same.
At 5 a.m. the next morning we were awakened by Vermont state troopers pounding on the hotel room door to deliver a message. My dad had taken a turn for the worse and we had to go home. We got back in time to say good-bye. He died that night. |
