The ZEISS Conquest 4.5-14x44 AO Riflescope, Z-Plex Reticle (52 14 30 9920) is a high-performance scope for hunting big game, varmints and predators at long ranges. Parallax adjustment, high magnification, and hunting turret options make this riflescope ideal for precision shooting.
The robust, one-piece tube body of the Conquest riflescope is built to stand up to the most abusive recoil and demanding terrains. Designed to meet the needs of every hunting style and scenario, this model scope excels in whatever situation presents itself.
The Conquest 4.5-14x44 AO Riflescope features Carl Zeiss MC multi-coatings for enhanced light transmission, anodized finish, wide field of view, 1/4 MOA, wide adjustment range. This rifle scope is waterproof, dust proof, and nitrogen filled to prevent fogging.
This Conquest Riflescope is equipped with the Z-Plex reticle, which features four long medium weight posts and fine cross hairs. This is a familiar style of reticle and affords quick target acquisition and accurate shot placement for the shooter.

I like it. What are the red dots for?
Hi all. This is my first real attempt at creating a world map and I'd like to get some opinions on how it turned out. It is obviously done in the "Saderan" style which I like for a generic topographic world view. How does this look? Any glaring issues? Comments greatly appreciated.
Eventually, I'd also like to be able to do a globe style map but I am sure this is way beyond my meager newbie mapping skills. I'd also eventually like to get into doing regional maps in something similar to the old Forgotten Realms map style, though again, that is likely a long way off for someone new to mapping.
I like it. What are the red dots for?
The major volcanoes / volcanic regions. Do they work? Or should I look at something different?
Not bad at all.
I guessed that red dots were volcanos because all are on mountaintops, but at first I thought they were cities...
Another little problem is that the mountaintops seem flat.
My two cents...
Hi Khaalis! Your map turned out quite nicely. Well done. I guessed what the red dots were for but it's not that obvious and I think maybe you should work on finding a better way to represent volcanoes. Are you going to be adding more rivers? I would expect more of them on a world-scale map. I also think that it's not that common for rivers to start in big lakes, but I will leave it for the river police. That said, it really is a great map. I like how you managed different terrain. The textures used blend smoothly.
Hi there Khaalis, looking really nice so far! I agree with the above comments about the volcanoes, if you put in a map key indexing them to volcanoes that would help, but they still seem a bit abstract for a map such as this. The textures you've chosen all go really nicely with the map. I have mixed feelings about the snow on your mountain peeks. My first impression was that they should have been blended a bit more. However, as I looked at the map more I thought they looked sort of interesting, and if you aren't going for photo-realism, but a slightly more abstract and stylized map the could work. Great job so far.
I agree with arsheesh, the tops are very abstract and not what I would expect. Well it is interesting, but I am not sure how well it looks together with the other textures and elevations.
I had a real problem getting the mountains to texture the way I wanted. I simply couldn't seem to get them high enough or altering enough in height and shape. Any suggestions on how to work them? Also any suggestions for the volcanoes? Perhaps simply darker shading and more texture to appear as craters?

So, Republicans Want to Leave the United States .
May 4, 2013
By Allen Clifton
For the last 4 years all Ive heard from many Republicans was how they want to leave this country, because its turning into a haven for socialism.
According to many of the comments Ive seen coming from Republicans, quite a few are planning to flee the country to escape the socialist terror of a country that would allow same-sex marriage, wants socialized health care, wants to ensure the wealthy pay higher taxes than middle class Americans, wants sensible gun regulations and seeks to keep religion out of our government.
As someone who isnt a Republican, I highly encourage their exodus. Hell, Ill start a foundation that raises money to ship these people first class anywhere they want to go.
Theres just one problem, where the hell would they go?
I, as well as millions of other liberals, would love to see these people leave the United States.
But first, I would love these Republicans to list us one country on this planet that is a combination of all of the following:
- Doesnt support same-sex marriage or unions
- Allows unregulated gun ownership
- Has no form of socialized health care
- Is run by a capitalistic theocracy
- Pays little or no taxes
- Has a very small government
And once they do find this nation (might I suggest Somalia) I promise liberals across the United States will gladly start a foundation that raises money to send their asses there on a first class red eye flight within 24 hours. Well, most of the way first class anyway. With low taxes and small government I dont think Somalia has the airports and travel industry available for a non-stop first class flight for these future Somalians. But Im sure the numerous warlords throughout the country have some kind of transportation system in place if they join up with them. Freedom and warlords, just think of all the guns theyll have access to.
So please, from liberals everywhere, go ahead and leave.
After all, what would this country look like without the great education and economic systems such as those in Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Louisiana and Arkansas.
In fact, if every far right-wing Republican citizen left the United States, do you know what would happen?
- Infant mortality rates would improve
- Average life expectancy would increase
- Education scores would rise
- Obesity rates would drop
- Median family income would increase
- Divorce rates would drop (yes, many Republican states lead the nation in divorce)
- The percentage of Americans living below the poverty line would drastically shrink
- Our deficits would instantly be reduced, as most strongly Republican states take in more federal dollars than they pay out
So by all means, leave. Again, Im sure millions of liberals will pay for the mass conservative relocation to this paradise of freedom.
But again, the only question I have is just where the hell would you go?

Hey, congratulations! That's great news!
I know you'll make us proud
Well the Iron Crown temple map contest, which was extended to the beginning of March, was really a foot in the door for me, as far as commission work for I.C.E. is concerned. Shortly after the start of the contest, Iron Crown made some deal with a company called 0one games, who had a whole slew of encounter maps for castles, dungeons, inns, over a hundred maps I believe, which are now posted for sale from the Iron Crown site.
Apparently they need a regional map that will contain all these encounter maps. They've developed the background story, and now need a large island to place them on. So I've been contacted by the Iron Crown staff to do just that.
Whether I win the I.C.E. contest or not, my real goal was commission work, so it looks like my strategy worked! I'll post what I can, if and when I receive the commission. I guess they are looking for a "Harn" look in the map, I'll see what I can do!

Looks the style of mine they like best is the one on last month's Lands of Crae map, but they asked me to throw on a hex grid and scale, so here's what they like for their regional map in style anyway... I need to make two maps, the whole island and a single peninsula, which is the starting area for their background story.

Ash and friends finally arrive at Castelia City, They find a Venipede only to have a whole swarm invade the city. Meanwhile Giovanni is headed to the Unova region to see the progress Team Rocket has made there. After the swarm passed Professor Juniper arrives and requests the assistance of Ash and co. Ash decides to put his Gym battle with Burgh on hold to help the Professor.
After crossing the Skyarrow bridge, Ash, Iris and Cilan went to Castelia City. Cilan suggested to go to the City's Ice Cream shop, but Ash denies it, wanting to battle the Gym Leader. They managed to find Burgh, thinking of something near a tree. Burgh said that he feels an odd energy, as something was wrong. Iris felt a similar thing and proposed to go to the source. Despite she took them to the Ice Cream shop, they opened a manhole to the sewers.
In the sewers, they find a lone Venipede stuck in a sewer pipe. Despite Burgh warning him not to free Venipede because of the poison, Ash tried (and succeeded) in freeing Venipede. Venipede was struggling to get free, Ash calmed him down, until the poison took effect. Later, Cilan gave Ash antidote, while Burgh was healing Venipede's injury. Suddenly, hundreds of Venipedes were walking the sewers. Ash, Cilan, Iris and Burgh went out.
Unexpectedly, they saw hundreds of Venipedes in the streets! They went to the Pokémon center, when they see Trip and some trainers battling them. Trip almost attacked with his Lampet, until Ash stopped him, blocking the attack. The Mayor comes, declaring that Venipedes must go. The gang persuades him that Venipedes will go to the Castelia City's park until the problem resolves.
The Mayor agreed, Burgh is playing his flute to make the Venipedes follow him. The gang bringed their Pokémon out to lure the other lost Venipedes to follow Burgh. At one point, even Trip joined to help them. When Pidove lured some of the Venipedes, she evolved into Tranquil.
Giovanni, leader of Team Rocket, has been going to visit the source of the unknown energy. Back at the Castelia Town, the gang managed to lure all Venipedes to the park. The Mayor was pleased, while Trip wasn't - he needed to go to another City Gym until things calm down. Professor Juniper arrived, saying that the Venipedes must have gone to the City because there is a secret energy coming from the desert. Officer Jenny volunteered to go with Professor Juniper to the desert to find the secret energy (in the Japanese version, Ash, Iris and Cilan also volunteered to go with Professor Juniper and Officer Jenny). The episode ends with a helicopter going to the mountains.
- Professor Oak's Live Caster: Yamask
- This is the second time Ash looked up Tranquill on the Pokedex. First was BW010: A Rival Battle for Club Champ!.
- Who's That Pokémon?: Venipede (US)
Dub Edits
- Although, in Japan, it was shown that [[Ash, Iris and Cilan went with Professor Juniper to the Desert Resort, in the English dub she went alone while Ash and the gang stayed for the next gym badge against Burgh. Basically they skipped the scene in which Ash and co. go in the helicopter due to the next two postponed episodes.

If you like sweet and charming dramas with a pinch of humor, may I suggest the film Liberal Arts. How I Met Your Mother's Josh Radnor wrote, directed and starred in this film about an increasingly disaffected thirty-something suffering from a bad case of nostalgia for his college days after he finds himself stuck in an emotional rut. After being asked by one of his former college professors (Richard Jenkins) to come back to his Ohio alma mater to attend a retirement dinner, Jesse realizes how much he misses the excitement, innocence and idealism of being nineteen, intellectually hungry and feeling optimistic. Such euphoria leads him to Zibby, a classical music-loving sophomore co-ed (Elizabeth Olsen) who is talented, precocious and drawn to Jesse's enthusiastic love of books and because he's not the typical college boy she's interested in. As their relationship develops, the issue of their age gap comes into play while Jesse's former professor struggles with his own anxiety about his post-employment future. Liberal Arts is definitely sappy in places and oozes with maudlin marrow but if you can get past some of the movie's weaker elements, you'll find the core of the story's message about aging with grace relatively well-intended and affecting.

Excerpts for
Gone Girl : Library Edition
Chapter One
Nick Dunne
the day of
When I think of my wife, I always think of her head. The shape of
it, to begin with. The very first time I saw her, it was the back of the
head I saw, and there was something lovely about it, the angles of it.
Like a shiny, hard corn kernel or a riverbed fossil. She had what the
Victorians would call
finely shaped head.
You could imagine the
skull quite easily.
I'd know her head anywhere.
And what's inside it. I think of that too: her mind. Her brain, all
those coils, and her thoughts shuttling through those coils like fast,
frantic centipedes. Like a child, I picture opening her skull, unspooling
her brain and sifting through it, trying to catch and pin down
her thoughts.
What are you thinking, Amy?
The question I've asked
most often during our marriage, if not out loud, if not to the person
who could answer. I suppose these questions stormcloud over every
What are you thinking? How are you feeling? Who are
you? What have we done to each other? What will we do?
My eyes flipped open at exactly six a.m. This was no avian fluttering
of the lashes, no gentle blink toward consciousness. The awakening
was mechanical. A spooky ventriloquist- dummy click of the lids:
The world is black and then,
6- 0- 0 the clock said-- in my
face, first thing I saw. 6- 0- 0. It felt different. I rarely woke at such a
rounded time. I was a man of jagged risings: 8:43, 11:51, 9:26. My
life was alarmless.
At that exact moment, 6- 0- 0, the sun climbed over the skyline of
oaks, revealing its full summer angry- god self. Its reflection flared
across the river toward our house, a long, blaring finger aimed at me
through our frail bedroom curtains. Accusing:
You have been seen.
You will be seen.
I wallowed in bed, which was our New York bed in our new house,
which we still called
the new house,
even though we'd been back here
for two years. It's a rented house right along the Mississippi River,
a house that screams Suburban Nouveau Riche, the kind of place
I aspired to as a kid from my split- level, shag- carpet side of town.
The kind of house that is immediately familiar: a generically grand,
unchallenging, new, new, new house that my wife would-- and did--
"Should I remove my soul before I come inside?" Her first line upon
arrival. It had been a compromise: Amy demanded we rent, not buy,
in my little Missouri hometown, in her firm hope that we wouldn't
be stuck here long. But the only houses for rent were clustered in
this failed development: a miniature ghost town of bank- owned,
recession- busted, price- reduced mansions, a neighborhood that closed
before it ever opened. It was a compromise, but Amy didn't see it that
way, not in the least. To Amy, it was a punishing whim on my part, a
nasty, selfish twist of the knife. I would drag her, caveman- style, to a
town she had aggressively avoided, and make her live in the kind of
house she used to mock. I suppose it's not a compromise if only one of
you considers it such, but that was what our compromises tended to
look like. One of us was always angry. Amy, usually.
Do not blame me for this particular grievance, Amy. The Missouri
Grievance. Blame the economy, blame bad luck, blame my parents,
blame your parents, blame the Internet, blame people who use the
Internet. I used to be a writer. I was a writer who wrote about TV
and movies and books. Back when people read things on paper, back
when anyone cared about what I thought. I'd arrived in New York in
the late '90s, the last gasp of the glory days, although no one knew it
then. New York was packed with writers, real writers, because there
were magazines, real magazines, loads of them. This was back when
the Internet was still some exotic pet kept in the corner of the publishing
world-- throw some kibble at it, watch it dance on its little leash,
oh quite cute, it definitely won't kill us in the night. Think about it: a
time when newly graduated college kids could come to New York and
get paid to write.
We had no clue that we were embarking on careers
that would vanish within a decade.
I had a job for eleven years and then I didn't, it was that fast. All
around the country, magazines began shuttering, succumbing to
a sudden infection brought on by the busted economy. Writers (my
kind of writers: aspiring novelists, ruminative thinkers, people whose
brains don't work quick enough to blog or link or tweet, basically old,
stubborn blowhards) were through. We were like women's hat makers
or buggy- whip manufacturers: Our time was done. Three weeks after
I got cut loose, Amy lost her job, such as it was. (Now I can feel Amy
looking over my shoulder, smirking at the time I've spent discussing
my career, my misfortune, and dismissing her experience in one sentence.
That, she would tell you, is typical.
Just like Nick,
she would
say. It was a refrain of hers:
Just like Nick to . . .
whatever followed,
whatever was
just like me,
was bad.) Two jobless grown- ups, we spent
weeks wandering around our Brooklyn brownstone in socks and pajamas,
ignoring the future, strewing unopened mail across tables and
sofas, eating ice cream at ten a.m. and taking thick afternoon naps.
Then one day the phone rang. My twin sister was on the other
end. Margo had moved back home after her own New York layoff
a year before-- the girl is one step ahead of me in everything, even
shitty luck. Margo, calling from good ole North Carthage, Missouri,
from the house where we grew up, and as I listened to her voice, I
saw her at age ten, with a dark cap of hair and overall shorts, sitting
on our grandparents' back dock, her body slouched over like an old
pillow, her skinny legs dangling in the water, watching the river fl ow
over fish- white feet, so intently, utterly self- possessed even as a child.
Go's voice was warm and crinkly even as she gave this cold news:
Our indomitable mother was dying. Our dad was nearly gone-- his
(nasty) mind, his (miserable) heart, both murky as he meandered
toward the great gray beyond. But it looked like our mother would
beat him there. About six months, maybe a year, she had. I could tell
that Go had gone to meet with the doctor by herself, taken her studious
notes in her slovenly handwriting, and she was teary as she tried
to decipher what she'd written. Dates and doses.
"Well, fuck, I have no idea what this says, is it a nine? Does that
even make sense?" she said, and I interrupted. Here was a task, a
purpose, held out on my sister's palm like a plum. I almost cried with
"I'll come back, Go. We'll move back home. You shouldn't have to
do this all by yourself."
She didn't believe me. I could hear her breathing on the other end.
"I'm serious, Go. Why not? There's nothing here."
A long exhale. "What about Amy?"
That is what I didn't take long enough to consider. I simply assumed
I would bundle up my New York wife with her New York interests,
her New York pride, and remove her from her New York parents--
leave the frantic, thrilling futureland of Manhattan behind-- and
transplant her to a little town on the river in Missouri, and all would
be fine.
I did not yet understand how foolish, how optimistic, how, yes,
just like Nick
I was for thinking this. The misery it would lead to.
"Amy will be fine. Amy . . ." Here was where I should have said,
Mom." But I couldn't tell Go that Amy loved our mother,
because after all that time, Amy still barely knew our mother. Their
few meetings had left them both baffled. Amy would dissect the conversations
for days after--"And what did she mean by . . . ," as if my
mother were some ancient peasant tribeswoman arriving from the
tundra with an armful of raw yak meat and some buttons for bartering,
trying to get something from Amy that wasn't on offer.
Amy didn't care to know my family, didn't want to know my
birthplace, and yet for some reason, I thought moving home would
be a good idea.
My morning breath warmed the pillow, and I changed the subject in
my mind. Today was not a day for second- guessing or regret, it was a
day for doing. Downstairs, I could hear the return of a long- lost sound:
Amy making breakfast. Banging wooden cupboards (rump- thump!),
rattling containers of tin and glass (ding- ring!), shuffling and sorting
a collection of metal pots and iron pans (ruzz-shuzz!). A culinary
orchestra tuning up, clattering vigorously toward the finale, a cake
pan drumrolling along the floor, hitting the wall with a cymballic
crash. Something impressive was being created, probably a crepe,
because crepes are special, and today Amy would want to cook something
It was our five- year anniversary.
I walked barefoot to the edge of the steps and stood listening,
working my toes into the plush wall- to- wall carpet Amy detested on
principle, as I tried to decide whether I was ready to join my wife.
Amy was in the kitchen, oblivious to my hesitation. She was humming
something melancholy and familiar. I strained to make it out-- a folk
song? a lullabye?--and then realized it was the theme to
Suicide is painless. I went downstairs.
I hovered in the doorway, watching my wife. Her yellow- butter
hair was pulled up, the hank of ponytail swinging cheerful as a jumprope,
and she was sucking distractedly on a burnt fingertip, humming
around it. She hummed to herself because she was an unrivaled
botcher of lyrics. When we were first dating, a Genesis song came on
the radio: "She seems to have an invisible touch, yeah." And Amy
crooned instead, "She takes my hat and puts it on the top shelf."
When I asked her why she'd ever think her lyrics were remotely, possibly,
vaguely right, she told me she always thought the woman in the
song truly loved the man because she put his hat on the
shelf. I
knew I liked her then, really liked her, this girl with an explanation
for everything.
There's something disturbing about recalling a warm memory and
feeling utterly cold.
Amy peered at the crepe sizzling in the pan and licked something
off her wrist. She looked triumphant, wifely. If I took her in my arms,
she would smell like berries and powdered sugar.
When she spied me lurking there in grubby boxers, my hair in full
Heat Miser spike, she leaned against the kitchen counter and said,
"Well, hello, handsome."
Bile and dread inched up my throat. I thought to myself:
Okay, go.
I was very late getting to work. My sister and I had done a foolish
thing when we both moved back home. We had done what we always
talked about doing. We opened a bar. We borrowed money from Amy
to do this, eighty thousand dollars, which was once nothing to Amy
but by then was almost everything. I swore I would pay her back,
with interest. I would not be a man who borrowed from his wife-- I
could feel my dad twisting his lips at the very idea.
Well, there are all
kinds of men,
his most damning phrase, the second half left unsaid,
and you are the wrong kind.
But truly, it was a practical decision, a smart business move. Amy
and I both needed new careers; this would be mine. She would pick
one someday, or not, but in the meantime, here was an income, made
possible by the last of Amy's trust fund. Like the McMansion I rented,
the bar featured symbolically in my childhood memories-- a place
where only grown- ups go, and do whatever grown- ups do. Maybe
that's why I was so insistent on buying it after being stripped of my
livelihood. It's a reminder that I am, after all, an adult, a grown man,
a useful human being, even though I lost the career that made me
all these things. I won't make that mistake again: The once plentiful
herds of magazine writers would continue to be culled-- by the
Internet, by the recession, by the American public, who would rather
watch TV or play video games or electronically inform friends that,
rain sucks!
But there's no app for a bourbon buzz on a warm day
in a cool, dark bar. The world will always want a drink.
Our bar is a corner bar with a haphazard, patchwork aesthetic. Its
best feature is a massive Victorian back bar, dragon heads and angel
faces emerging from the oak-- an extravagant work of wood in these
shitty plastic days. The remainder of the bar is, in fact, shitty, a showcase
of the shabbiest design offerings of every decade: an Eisenhowerera
linoleum floor, the edges turned up like burnt toast; dubious
wood- paneled walls straight from a '70s home- porn video; halogen
floor lamps, an accidental tribute to my 1990s dorm room. The ultimate
effect is strangely homey-- it looks less like a bar than someone's
benignly neglected fixer- upper. And jovial: We share a parking
lot with the local bowling alley, and when our door swings wide, the
clatter of strikes applauds the customer's entrance.
We named the bar The Bar. "People will think we're ironic instead
of creatively bankrupt," my sister reasoned.
Yes, we thought we were being clever New Yorkers-- that the
name was a joke no one else would really get, not get like we did.
- get. We pictured the locals scrunching their noses: Why'd
you name it
The Bar
? But our first customer, a gray- haired woman in
bifocals and a pink jogging suit, said, "I like the name. Like in
at Tiffany's
and Audrey Hepburn's cat was named Cat."
We felt much less superior after that, which was a good thing.
I pulled into the parking lot. I waited until a strike erupted from
the bowling alley--
thank you, thank you, friends
-- then stepped
out of the car. I admired the surroundings, still not bored with the
broken- in view: the squatty blond- brick post office across the street
(now closed on Saturdays), the unassuming beige office building just
down the way (now closed, period). The town wasn't prosperous, not
anymore, not by a long shot. Hell, it wasn't even original, being one
of two Carthage, Missouris-- ours is technically
which makes it sound like a twin city, although it's hundreds of miles
from the other and the lesser of the two: a quaint little 1950s town
that bloated itself into a basic midsize suburb and dubbed it progress.
Still, it was where my mom grew up and where she raised me and Go,
so it had some history. Mine, at least.
As I walked toward the bar across the concrete- and- weed parking
lot, I looked straight down the road and saw the river. That's what
I've always loved about our town: We aren't built on some safe bluff
overlooking the Mississippi-- we are
the Mississippi. I could walk
down the road and step right into the sucker, an easy three- foot drop,
and be on my way to Tennessee. Every building downtown bears
hand- drawn lines from where the river hit during the Flood of '61,'75,
'84, '93, '07, '08, '11. And so on.
The river wasn't swollen now, but it was running urgently, in strong
ropy currents. Moving apace with the river was a long single- fi le line
of men, eyes aimed at their feet, shoulders tense, walking steadfastly
nowhere. As I watched them, one suddenly looked up at me, his face
in shadow, an oval blackness. I turned away.
I felt an immediate, intense need to get inside. By the time I'd gone
twenty feet, my neck bubbled with sweat. The sun was still an angry
eye in the sky.
You have been seen.
My gut twisted, and I moved quicker. I needed a drink.

The debt is paid off when Santo takes Luis back to cage fighting so the latter could take a fall in a third round. The choice is left for the player.
If Luis takes a dive, Santo will appear in Adriana Lopez's life again, helping her with shopping. In a call with Luis, he unsuccessfully asks her not to talk with Santo anymore.
- "You're a fucking dead man. I'm gonna burn that bitch mom of yours, too."
- ―Santo threatening Luis.
If Luis doesn't take a dive and finishes off his third opponent, outside the cage fighting club, an enraged Santo attacks Luis with a knife, forcing Luis to kill Santo.
- Momma's Boy (Can be killed)
- Mr. Santo, like Gerry McReary and Ray Boccino, is much taller than all other characters in cutscenes. During gameplay he is the same height as all others.

|Liberty City
Liberty (also known as Liberty State or "Liberty City State") is an American state in the Grand Theft Auto series that's both a parody and a counterpart for the real State of York. Like New York State, Liberty State is on the east coast of America and the rest of America exists around it.
Known cities and areas in Liberty State
- Liberty City
- The Carraways (including East Carraway)
- Carcer City (possibly)
- Upstate
Related states
In GTA 1 there is a landmass to the west of Liberty City known as New Guernsey. In GTA IV, there is also a landmass west of Liberty City, but it is now known as Alderney. These two places are references to New Jersey, playing the role of neighboring Liberty State.

The Landstalker is an SUV available in Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V.
GTA III — GTA Vice City Stories The Landstalker has many different designs between GTA III and GTA Vice City Stories, usually combined from a variety of sources.
- In GTA III, the Landstalker resembles a slightly altered first generation Landrover Freelander (Pre facelift) or the 1998 Nissan Terrano.
- In Liberty City Stories, the Landstalker is based on a Lincoln Navigator [[1]]. Some models may also come with roof-mounted luggage rack, and boxes in the rear compartment.
- In GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories, the Landstalker resembles a 1984-1990 Jeep Wagoneer Limited with the headlights and front bumper from the 1983-1990 Chevrolet S-10.
- In GTA San Andreas, the Landstalker generally resembles the GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories rendition but with a few changes which make its design more similar to a Chevrolet S10 Blazer. It no longer carries a rear-mounted spare tire; instead, a tire is visible inside the rear compartment. The engine sound suggests a 4.7L V8 or a large displacement V6.
The GTA IV rendition of the Landstalker bears close resemblance to the third generation Ford Expedition, due to its overall shape (and because Dundreary is based off of Mercury). The grille however is most likely modeled after that of the Lincoln Navigator.The headlights resemble those of the 2006-present Range Rover or Lincoln Navigator and the taillights appear to share similar traits of those on the 2006 Ford Explorer/Range Rover Sport. It also bears a resemblance to the Ford Flex 2008-, however, this is most likely coincidental, as the Ford Flex was released at almost the exact same time as Grand Theft Auto IV.
A special black variant of the Landstalker can be seen driving around North Holland by North Holland Hustlers and Firefly Projects by M.O.B.. This variant features chrome side scuff bars, no luggage rails, and rear seat entertainment like used in the Lincoln Navigator as an option.
Another variant of the Landstalker has a unique gold side scuffs and a lower front and rear bumper. This variant is possibly based on the Eddie Bauer trim, seen on several Fords, including the Explorer, Expedition and the 2004 F-150.
The Landstalker also appears in trailers 1 and 2 and Franklin's trailer for GTA V but has since had a face-lift (shown in Franklin's trailer).
GTA III — GTA Vice City Stories
The Landstalker was originally introduced with a light weight (1380 kg), a short wheelbase, high ground clearance, full time 4WD, poor grip, stiff suspension, a high center of gravity and unstable weight distribution. As a result, it is highly susceptible to rollovers while simply turning or traversing off-road especially on traintracks, if the player doesn't drive carefully or make use of the handbrake. These attributes made the vehicle vastly inferior as an off-road vehicle when compared to the Patriot, Rancher, Sandking and Huntley. Although its handling is poor, the Landstalker has all-round moderate-to-good acceleration and top speed due to its weight.
The Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories rendition is noticeably more stable—its redesigned body features a lowered ground clearance (resulting in a slight redistribution of weight to the bottom) and a longer, heavier body (1880 kg), reducing the likelihood of rollovers. This is decidedly not the case with the version used in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories which has some of the poorest handling and highest likelihood of rollovers of any car in the GTA III universe, especially when attempting VCS' Robbery missions.
The GTA IV rendition of the Landstalker is quite heavy, resulting in poor acceleration and a top speed of 144 km/h (90 mph), and compared to other SUVs; braking is also adversely affected by the weight. The engine is a V6, paired to a 5 speed gearbox in a 50% Front, 50% Rear 4WD layout. The suspension is moderately firm, but still far too soft to corner at speed effectively. The body flops about in the turns, often causing the rear end to kick out and fishtail rather than simply overturn as in previous games. On the road, the Landstalker is nowhere near as competent as its closest competitors (the Cavalcade and Huntley Sport), but off-road the Landstalker begins to show its usefulness. The engine has enough torque to allow scaling of medium-grade hills, and the suspension evens out most of the natural bumps; unfortunately, the long rear overhang means the Landstalker can beach itself on rocks. Overall, its off-road performance is inferior to that of the Cavalcade, however it fares better than the Huntley Sport.
The Landstalker has a unique ABS system as standard equipment. The ABS will only work if braking in a straight line. If braking while turning, the wheels will lock, but will unlock after the Landstalker straightens out.
Deformation in frontal accidents is very good, having able to retain both headlights after hitting a low car. Rear accidents though cause quite a bit of visible damage. The engine itself is sturdy in accidents, allowing the Landstalker to take multiple direct hits at full speed before failing. Overall, this vehicle is better suited for short drives and off-road expeditions than high-speed pursuits.

- SF-UR in GTA San Andreas.
- IF99 - International Funk or K109 The Studio in GTA IV.
- When in reverse in the Landstalker, the front badge glows due to a glitch.
- The name "Landstalker" could be a play on the name Land Rover, a similar real-life SUV brand, or a reference to the GTA 2 vehicle, the Land Roamer. Roving, roaming, and stalking are considered to have similar meanings.
- A Landstalker is seen in the GTA V trailer, sporting new tail lights.
- In the American GTA III game manual, an advertisement for the Maibatsu Monstrosity shows a rebadged Landstalker, this could represent a partnership between The Maibatsu Corporation and Dundreary.

What's that, when you were a tyke, cherry trees bloomed in April and now they're blooming in late January because of that darn global warming?
Well yeah, but what you're looking at aint cherry trees, they're plum trees, muchacho/a.
See? Plum:
Click to expand
What's that, you just saw them in J-Town, so they must be cherry trees? NOPE! What you saw was Prunus cerasifera, a kind of plum. Yes, they planted plums on Post Street on purpose, to stagger the blooms from winter to spring, one supposes. Go back to Japantown in April and you'll see blossoms from the real deal, Prunus serrulata aka Japanese Cherry, Hill Cherry, Oriental Cherry, East Asian Cherry, or soon enough, East Sea Cherry for all I know.
What's that, Prunus cerasifera's common name is cherry plum so close enough? NOPE! Cherry is cherry and plum is plum.
What's that, global warming is real and trees are blossoming earlier and earlier? MAYBE SO! But just don't call plum trees cherry trees, that's what I'm saying. That's the "one weird trick."
All right, here you go, here's a genuine cherry tree during late January in the 415:
Cherries will be blooming soon enough.
Until then, enjoy eating plum blossoms, as this Wild Parrot of Telegraph Hill did near the Financial one winter long ago:

Badger is a Mobile Phone company in the HD Era. It is most likely a parody of Fido Solutions, a Canadian phone company also named after an animal (a dog). Though, their phones resemble those of Nokia and Samsung. While Whiz and Tinkle were more preoccupied with Communications Network, Badger developed the first touchscreen phone.
In GTA IV
It is Niko Bellic's first cell phone provider that he uses to communicate and interact with the environment. Badger equipment is not compatible with ring tones or wallpaper and only prominently displays the Badger logo as its theme. Even though Roman supposedly gives his old phone to Niko during the mission It's Your Call, the player can still access the phone beforehand, though the only thing that can be done with it is trigger multiplayer and, in the PC version, the Video Editor.
In Chinatown Wars
The PDA present on the touch screen runs on the Badger network. The software is apparently known as BadgerOS, and gives the player access to the game's menus and features. While mobile phone conversations are not present, the PDA (as well as the computer found in safehouses) can be used to receive email. On the PSP version of the game, there are three themes selectable from the Settings menu (which can be found inside the System application), the default is Badger's skin, but one for "Sprunk" and another for "Tw@ Internet Cafe" can also be chosen.
Known Users
- The Badger network, like the Whiz network, is capable of sending photos, as shown by Ray Boccino sending you a picture of a target in the mission A Long Way To Fall, which means that perhaps Niko's inability to use themes, ring tones and to take and send pictures is due not to the network but to the cell phone he used at the time.
- Ray Boccino owns a Badger phone, however it is shown as a Whiz phone, and also in the cutsene for the mission Late Checkout, he is seen throwing his phone at the waiter in the restaurant, which is used in an Whiz Wireless television commercial demonstrating "Enjoy Robust, Durable Handsets".
- In the Ballad of Gay Tony, you have a Badger phone, though if you go into the 'Themes' menu, you may select a Whiz Wireless wallpaper.
- Badger is used as another term to fart in some parts of the UK, to keep up with Rockstar's crude humour.

The Erie Board of Trustees voted late Tuesday to reimburse $10,118 in legal expenses Mayor Joe Wilson incurred defending himself against an allegation that he had violated the town's ethics code, a charge that was dismissed by a special prosecutor last week.
The vote was 4-2, with Trustees Jonathan Hager and Janice Moore voting in opposition. The mayor recused himself from the vote.
Wilson was accused earlier this year by a resident of having a conflict of interest when he got involved in real estate deals on the west side of town in 2012. But the special prosecutor investigating the charge determined that the mayor had not acted improperly and concluded that there was no evidence of misdeeds on his part.
Moore noted that town code only permits a maximum reimbursement of $2,000, but town attorney Mark Shapiro said the mayor was directly approaching the board with his request and asking it to use its discretion as to whether he should be paid the full amount.
Mayor Pro Tem Ronda Grassi said it is important that elected officials in Erie be reimbursed for legal expenses if they are exonerated from wrongdoing.
"I can't imagine anybody running for office in the town if they could be on the hook for this much money," she said.

Former North Carolina Gov. Mike Easley wants to practice law again after his license was suspended for two years following a campaign finance-related felony conviction.
Easley's attorney has filed a petition with the North Carolina State Bar to have his law license reinstated.
The two-term Democratic governor agreed in early 2012 to the suspension, which has started in December 2010. Easley accepted criminal responsibility in November 2010 for an improperly filed campaign finance report.
The petition says Easley has complied with Bar rules and hasn't broken any laws during the suspension period.
The reinstatement occurs if the State Bar agrees Easley has fulfilled all requirements.
The State Bar can object to reinstatement requests and let a special committee hold a hearing on the matter.

Green Day Singer Billie Joe Armstrong Is "Seeking Treatment for Substance Abuse" After an Onstage Meltdown
GREEN DAY singer BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG is "seeking treatment for substance abuse" . . . after throwing an EPIC tantrum at the iHeartRadio Music Festival on Friday night.
--According to reports, Green Day's set was almost cut in half . . . from about 45 minutes to 25 minutes . . . after earlier sets by USHER and RIHANNA were allowed to go long.
--Billie Joe stopped their performance in the middle of the song "Basket Case" . . . when he noticed that a monitor in the venue was warning them that they only had one minute remaining. This set him off on a profanity-filled tirade.
--He yelled, quote, "Give me [an effing] break. One minute [effing] left. You're gonna give me one [effing] minute? Look at that [effing] sign right there . . . one minute.
--"Let me [effing] tell you something . . . I've been around since [effing] 198-[effing]-8. And you're gonna give me one [effing] minute? You've gotta be [effing] kidding me! What the [eff]! I'm not [effing] JUSTIN BIEBER, you mother[effers] . . .
--"I got one minute, one minute left. Oh, now I got nothing left. Let me show you what one [effing] minute [effing] means." He started smashing his guitar on the ground, and bassist MIKE DIRNT followed suit.
--Then, Billie Joe FLIPPED THE BIRD . . . and shouted, quote, "One minute. God [effing] love you all. We'll be back" . . . and stormed off the stage.
--Initially, there were reports that Billie Joe cooled down backstage and was laughing about the incident . . . so there was talk that he may have purposely gone over the top with it to have a "rock 'n' roll moment," and pick up some publicity.
--But on Sunday, Billie Joe's rep announced that he's, quote, "seeking treatment for substance abuse" . . . and added, quote, "Green Day would like everyone to know that their set was not cut short . . . and to apologize to those they offended.
--"The band regretfully must postpone some of their upcoming promotional appearances." Of course, the timing isn't good . . . Green Day's new album "Uno!" comes out TOMORROW.
--There's no word what kind of substance abuse Billie Joe is being treated for . . . although, there's a pretty good chance he was ON IT during his freak-out Friday night.
"Modern Family", "Homeland" and "Game Change" Were Big Winners at the Emmys Last Night
"Modern Family", "Homeland" and the SARAH PALIN movie "Game Change" were big winners at the Emmys last night.
--Each won for best show in its respective category: "Modern Family" for Comedy, "Homeland" for Drama and "Game Change" for Miniseries or TV Movie.
--"Modern Family" also won for Best Director, while ERIC STONESTREET and JULIE BOWEN won Best Supporting Actor and Actress, respectively.
(--The cast of "Modern Family" only compete in the SUPPORTING categories, instead of competing in both the Lead AND Supporting categories. It's one of those solidarity things.)
--In the LEAD comedy categories, JON CRYER was a surprise winner for "Two and a Half Men", and JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS won for "Veep".
--Meanwhile, "Homeland" stars CLAIRE DANES and DAMIAN LEWIS won Best Lead Actor and Actress . . . and the show also won Best Writing.
--JULIANNE MOORE won Best Lead Actress in a Miniseries or Movie for "Game Change" . . . which also won the writing and directing honors for that category.
Jimmy Kimmel's Big Prank Was Pretending Tracy Morgan Had Passed Out on the Emmy Stage
Leading into the Emmys, host JIMMY KIMMEL promised some kind of massive, unprecedented stunt. It didn't really live up to the hype, but it was amusing.
--He had TRACY MORGAN lay down on the stage and pretend to be unconscious . . . then he told everyone to Tweet that Tracy had passed out on live TV, so that people would turn on the show.
--There's no word if the prank resulted in a ratings spike, but the "Hollywood Reporter" says there were 25,000 Tweets immediately after Kimmel's request.
Did Kris Jenner Get Shut Down When She Tried to Score some iPhone 5s?
Did KRIS JENNER get DENIED when she tried to snag a few iPhone 5s without waiting in line?
--RadarOnline says Kris called an Apple store ahead of Friday's release and asked them to reserve FIVE of the new iPhones for her, because she's apparently above waiting in line. She said she'd send someone to pick them up.
--But the employee politely told her NO, and said she's have to wait in line like everyone else.
--Kris freaked out and demanded to speak to a manager. A source says, quote, "No manager would speak to her because this wasn't a negotiable issue."
--Somehow, Kris didn't get the message, because when Friday rolled around, her assistant showed up for those five iPhones . . . only to discover that there were no iPhones waiting for him.
--A security guard who was keeping an eye on things told the assistant, quote, "See that line? Go wait in it and you will be helped."
Maksim Chmerkovskiy Plans to Leave "Dancing with the Stars" in 2014
Dancer MAKSIM CHMERKOVSKIY is planning to leave "Dancing with the Stars" when his contract is up . . . in 2014. So, he's doing TWO more seasons after this one.
--At that point, Maksim wants to stop playing second fiddle to C-list celebrities and launch his OWN career.
--He tells the "New York Post", quote, "Essentially, 80% of our job is to give somebody another push in their career, or we make them into likable characters. But at the end of the day, they go off and they better themselves.
--"I loved doing it. But to be honest with you, at 32, I am at what-about-me time . . . I have to do something else. I need to move on for me."
--Maksim didn't reveal his exact plans for 2014 . . . but he wants to give acting a shot. He says, quote, "I caught the bug, as they say. [It's] something I really want to do."

Vol State Students Commit to Completion
Submitted on October 26, 2011 at 11:56 AM
It's not enough for students to attend college; the goal should be to complete college. While this may seem like a rather obvious idea, in reality completion is tough for many students. Volunteer State Community College students are tackling the issue head-on with a new campus campaign. On Wednesday, students with the Phi Theta Kappa honors society encouraged their fellow students to sign a banner to make a pledge to themselves to commit to completion. It's part of a national program called C4 for Community College Completion Corps. Tennessee lawmakers supported the effort in a series of remarks at the event. Senator Kerry Roberts, Representative Mike McDonald and Representative Debra Maggart attended. After brief speeches many students signed the banner, joining dozens of others in pledging to graduate or transfer to university.
Vol State students will be able to sign the banner and make their commitment at events throughout the school year.
For more information on the "C4: Commit to Completion" campaign visit www.cccompletioncorps.org/ptk

UPDATE: Nineteenth-Century Literature and the Cultural Moment (grad) (11/15/05; 3/31/06-4/1/06)
full name / name of organization:
Celeste Pottier
contact email:
The conference website for the University of South Carolina's Nineteenth-Century Graduate Literature Conference, "Nineteenth-Century Literature and the Cultural Moment," is now online at http://www.cas.sc.edu/engl/19thcenturyconference/index.html.
A scholarly press has expressed interest in publishing a volume of essays from the conference. We anticipate choosing 14 to 16 essays for inclusion in this collection.
Nineteenth-Century Literature and the Cultural Moment
Keynote Speaker: Dr. Eric Wilson, Wake Forest University
Whether discussing the Industrial Revolution, the Woman Question, or other forms of political turmoil, many nineteenth-century writers condensed larger issues of the day into specific literary events -- or moments -- that both reflected and defined the historical and cultural climate of the time.
Our fourth annual graduate conference hopes to examine key cultural moments of the nineteenth century and their relationship to both contemporary and modern literary creation, criticism, and reception. How was the significance of a given moment either crystallized or created by a literary work? How did specific historical events or movements shape nineteenth-century literature? How were scientific innovations used by authors in their works to reflect social or political revolutions? How did writers on opposite sides of the Atlantic or on opposite sides of the world respond to the same cultural moments? How do modern cultural moments reflect or shape our perception of nineteenth-century texts?
Possible topics could include but are not limited to:
Abstracts of 250 words or less are due by November 15, 2005. Please include your name, the name of your institution and program, and any A/V needs that you may have. Submit abstracts electronically via email to respective representatives:

I thought this was a specific technique of Karin, Not just the act of sensing chakra? --Rikudou Geass (talk) 05:38, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
English name?
Someone told me that the english name for this is on one of those new Naruto TCG cards or watever theyre called, and he said it was named: Ninja Art: Seishogan? Is this true? Cuz if so it's kinda cool XD AMTNinja (talk) 02:19, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
Hiden Jutsu?
Wouldn't this technique be a kekkai genkai exclusive to her? Because Sasuke said that she has a unique power and no one else possesses it. —This unsigned comment was made by 22.214.171.124 (talk • contribs) .
Hey do you think this jutsu is passed down in the Uzumaki Clan, after all Karin is a member of it and the jutsu is classified as Hiden. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 05:31, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Possible, but not all that likely. Karin was born in and grew up in a small village (not Uzushiogakure) and for this to be an Uzumaki technique, there would have to have been another Uzumaki there to teach her. Currently, we simply don't know and will most likely have to wait for the 4th Databook, which probably won't release until the series ends. Skitts (talk) 05:38, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Also, to add onto Skitts answer, we don't know her exact parentage so, for all we know, it could have been from a parent from a different clan. Joshbl56 05:42, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
Why would someone from a different clan teach her a hiden jutsu? Well Karin was a little girl she can't have migrated to that small village after the destruction of Uzushiogakure by herself can she? The jutsu seems to have developed naturally. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 05:50, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not saying it would have been random but since we don't know her parentage, we wouldn't know if one of her parents were from a clan that has a hiden jutsu. It's all speculation when it comes to where she was taught this technique so lets wait until it's (ever) revealed. Joshbl56 06:00, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
So do new databooks cover and re-explain jutsu in previous databooks? 22.214.171.124 (talk) 06:04, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
Not quite. Sometimes they're mentioned again in other related techniques, or in the characters profile. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 01:44, March 31, 2012 (UTC)
So this jutsu's actual effect is confusing me. What seperates it from the the other chakra sensing techniques? Is it like the picture? Can she see the actual area around the targets? Is it similar to clairvoyance? KotoSenju (OldUser:JaZZBaND)-Talk-Contributions 04:45, June 13, 2013 (UTC)
- We don't know. The reason why we have another, generic chakra sensing technique article is because this one is supposed to be a hiden technique, unlikely to be the way so many characters sense chakra. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 13:09, June 13, 2013 (UTC)

Comments On Jul 23, 2011:Been running these for 2 seasons now and they are holding up great. I never have to worry about runnning out of tear offs. The kit comes with a pack of holeshot tear offs too.
Key points- Defenitely must have the mud flap! It DOES keep the water out! Also, must have the textured lens! It keeps the rolloffs rolling smooth and not sticking and twisting in your line of site.

Comments On Feb 03, 2010:I ride a lot of mud and also race. Many tracks today dont allow tear-offs cause they dont want their track littered. And even if you dont race, why litter our riding areas? I use this system with Scott Voltage X Goggles and it works great. Be sure to get the mud flaps to go with it.

James Budd, founder of the Boulder Outreach for Homeless Overflow, pleaded not guilty this morning to sexual assault and kidnapping charges.
Budd, 47, was charged with three counts of sexual assault, second-degree kidnapping, second-degree assault and third-degree assault, all felonies. He also faces a misdemeanor charge of false imprisonment.
Budd is scheduled to stand trial Aug. 26.
According to court records, Budd was arrested in November after a woman went to the Boulder County Sheriff's Office and told detectives he had sexually assaulted her.
The victim -- who said she knew Budd but was never in a relationship with him -- said he sent her an email and then came to her trailer in Boulder. After they had dinner, the woman said, Budd tried to take off her shirt, and when she refused, he slapped her in the face, according to court records. He raised his hand again, so the woman complied and took off all her clothes, according to an arrest affidavit.
The woman told investigators that Budd said, "Just (expletive) it," and pulled down his pants before saying he "needs to rape and kill (the victim), or he would have to rape and kill another woman," according to court records.
She said Budd then made her put on some underwear he picked out from her closet and then made her perform oral sex. He kept her in the trailer during the night, looked up pornography on her computer and talked to her "as if nothing had occurred," she told authorities.
The woman said Budd left the trailer the next morning. When investigators found him, Budd said he "went on a few dates" with the woman and was at her trailer Sunday night, but "really nothing sexual happened," according to the affidavit.
Budd, a former Bridge House employee who had been homeless for 25 years, founded BOHO in 2009 as an alternative shelter to the Boulder Shelter for the Homeless but has not been involved with the program since 2010.
Budd remains in custody at the Boulder County Jail on $100,000 bond.
