PHILADELPHIA -- Ken Hitchcock was hired as a pro scout by
the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday, less than two weeks after
they fired him as their head coach.
Hitchcock was let go when the Flyers had the fewest points in
the NHL. They have gone 2-1 since then under former Hitchcock
assistant John Stevens, and are 3-7-1 heading into Thursday's game
against Tampa Bay.
Flyers interim general manager Paul Holmgren said Hitchcock's
knowledge of the game made him a valuable asset as a scout.
Hitchcock was fired more than a month after signing an extension
and on the same day that general manager Bob Clarke resigned as
part of a dramatic shakeup.
"I don't make any secret of the fact that I want to be a head
coach again in the National Hockey League, but this is an
opportunity for me to help in any way possible by watching
other teams play, watching other players perform and helping Paul
in the evaluation of other players and other teams," Hitchcock said.
Hitchcock had a 131-83-40 regular-season record in his four
seasons as head coach of the Flyers. His 131 wins are fourth on the
Flyers' career coaching list.
"I know that his intention is to coach again somewhere down the
road and until the time comes, I feel that Ken is an asset for us
to use as long as he is OK with it," Holmgren said. "During my
conversations with him over the last few days, I believe he is."
Also, the Flyers said that Holmgren will keep his interim GM
role at least for a little longer after Colin Campbell, the
league's director of hockey operations, told the team he was not
interested in the job.
"When Bob Clarke announced his resignation on October 22, I
contacted Colin and we had a discussion about the general manager
position," Flyers chairman Ed Snider said. "Colin recently
contacted me to inform me that he appreciated our conversation, but
at this time he did not want to be a candidate for the position.
Paul Holmgren will continue to be the interim general manager."

MS Seminar - Michael Snyder
Event Details
Predictability and Dynamics of the Genoa Low:
Case Study and Operational Considerations
Major Professor: Dr. Jeffrey Chagnon
Abstract: The rapid development and sub-synoptic scale nature of the Genoa low in the Mediterranean Sea pose a forecasting challenge for United States Air Force (USAF). The Genoa low is a high-impact event for several Department of Defense (DOD) locations located in southern Europe, especially in the Po River Valley of northern Italy. This study evaluates the predictability and dynamics of the Genoa low extending to a 4-day event lead time as is required by the mission protocols at the affected locations. Two Genoa low case studies are analyzed: February 16, 2015 (case 1), and July 13, 2016 (Case 2) using the Consortium for Small-scale Modeling Limited-area Ensemble Prediction System (COSMO-LEPS). Ensemble prediction systems provide a range of possible forecast outcomes given the uncertainty in initial conditions, boundary conditions, as well as model physics. As such, ensembles are used to assess and analyze the predictability of the Genoa low.
The analysis demonstrates several key findings concerning the Genoa low. The Genoa low is only weakly predictable at a lead time of 4 days. It is shown that only a small fraction of ensemble members (approximately 25%) indicate cyclogenesis at this lead time. Ensemble spaghetti plots and maps of the ensemble variance show that the possiblity of low formation at longer lead times is most effective visualized using maps of ensemble variance. Traditional postage-stamp plots and minimum MSLP plots contain too much noise and variability to permit a bench forecaster to extract a signal indicating possible low formation. The formation of the Genoa low is associated with strong mistral winds. It is demonstrated that all ensemble simulations that were successful in identifying cyclogenesis also produce strong mistral winds, i.e., the strength of the mistral winds is anti-correlated to the minimum MSLP of the Genoa low. This linkage implies a potential dynamical connection between the two features. Further investigation shows that the mistral jet may exert an organizing influence on the Genoa low via a vorticity seeking mechanism. Time-lagged correlations show that the mistral jet amplifies several hours prior to cyclogenesis. The amplification is associated with mesoscale vorticity generation on the eastern periphery of the jet. These vorticity centers were subsequently shed into the region where cyclogenesis occurred. This study concludes that weather forecasting operations in the USAF would benefit from expansion of current ensemble prediction systems, not only for the purpose of improving the Geno low forecast process and performance but also to better inform the mission planners of the limitations and uncertainties of predicting the Genoa low.

An Amish Love is a collection of Three Novellas
"Healing Hearts" by Beth Wiseman
"What the Heart Sees" by Kathleen Fuller
"A Marriage of the Heart" by Kelly Long
Naaman left her a year ago, just after their youngest moved away and the "empty-nester' years began for Lavina in a way that she had never expected. Yet, here he is walking back through the door and expecting everything to start over.
The faith demanded that Lavina forgive Naaman and allow him to return, but can she ever trust him again?
My Thoughts
This book made me so angry! After all those kids and 30 years of marriage he just up and walks out saying he's going to visit relatives? I think not!
Anyway, it was a good story and I ended up liking him in the end – though I still thought they were too easy on him.

Bovi the comedian is not taking it easy with pastors who invite him to perform in their church and expect him to perform for free.
The comedian apparently is fed up with this and he decided to deal head on with what he tagged blackmail.
"The worst set of clients to underrate me are church pastors," Bovi writes on Snapchat. "The shock they show when I charge. What were you thinking – that I was coming to preach?"

Well for Bovi, he is done and has taken to social media to not only put the clergymen on the blast, but also affirm that he gives to charity too, but at his own violation.
Read his rants below:
Bovi has asked Nigerians to be patient with the incumbent government of Nigeria. He charged them to be patient with them so government can implement its plans and agenda for the country.

"Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws." – Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744-1812), founder of the House of Rothschild.
Most people have no idea how money and debt are created and controlled. This affects everyone on the planet and is the root cause of our economic problems. It's the cause of most of the world's hunger and poverty issues. Governments do not need national debt and don't have to borrow from private central banks.
Century of Enslavement: The History of The Federal Reserve
by James Corbett of corbettreport.com
What is the Federal Reserve system? How did it come into existence? Is it part of the federal government? How does it create money? Why is the public kept in the dark about these important matters? In this feature-length documentary film, The Corbett Report explores these important question and pulls back the curtain on America's central bank.

100 Years Is Enough: Time to Make the Fed a Public Utility | The Federal Reserve Act was passed in 1913 in response to a wave of bank crises, which had hit on average every six years over a period of 80 years. The resulting economic depressions triggered a populist movement for monetary reform in the 1890s. Mary Ellen Lease, an early populist leader, said in a fiery speech that could have been written today:
"Wall Street owns the country. It is no longer a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, but a government of Wall Street, by Wall Street, and for Wall Street. The great common people of this country are slaves, and monopoly is the master. . . . Money rules . . . .Our laws are the output of a system which clothes rascals in robes and honesty in rags. The parties lie to us and the political speakers mislead us. . . .
We want money, land and transportation. We want the abolition of the National Banks, and we want the power to make loans direct from the government. We want the foreclosure system wiped out."

Thanks for your responses. My dr. appt. is this coming Tuesday. At first they said the earliest opening was Nov. 28th!! but I pleaded and got in on a cancellation. Good thing because the saga continues. A couple of days ago I developed a painful swollen area of my lumbar spine as well as some smaller painful spots in my thoracic spine. I'm taking vicodin to manage the pain. I did forget to mention that I've had chronic pain from arthritis in my neck for about 3 years. The dr. says I have the neck of an old person even though I've never had any injury to it. No car accidents or anything. It's funny -- I'm so used to my neck by now that I forget about it even though it's constantly painful. The other place I get inflamed when my Crohn's acts up is my lower right ribcage. It feels like someone's poking a stick right through me -- in the front and out the back.
Anyway, it's such a comfort to know you all are out there. I read the forum and I know that if all of you can deal with your problems -- some much worse than mine -- that I can do it too. Thank you. I'll update you after my appt.

Travis Johnson – www.go-n-yard.com
Coach TJ uses a remarkable training system that is like no other. He came across this system while looking for some new drills for one of his baseball and fast pitch softball students. While surfing the web Coach TJ came across a number of baseball videos breaking down the swings of the best hitters in Major League Baseball. Right away he noticed something different from what he was taught when he was playing professional baseball and starting digging into the information further. After further research he came across Sparky Parker and The PT Method of hitting. Blown away by what he was seeing Coach TJ emailed Sparky and followed up with a phone call and the rest as they say "is history".
Part of the reason that Coach TJ was blown away is because he has been trained by some of the best coaches and hitting instructors in professional baseball while he was a player in the Minnesota Twins organization.
In the words of Coach TJ, "I can remember it like it was yesterday…my first batting practice with the Elizabethton Twins for the MN Twins in the Appalachian league. You come into batting practice with something to prove as you are the new guy on the team. After hitting numerous home runs and feeling great about the batting practice display I just put on I was walking back to the dugout when my manager said, "Good job! We are going to have to change everything. See you in the cage tomorrow morning"! Not at all what I was expecting! After a very successful high school and college career I was starting over from scratch! Back then Linear Hitting was what was being taught so we starting changing my swing and that is what I taught up until I came into contact with Sparky and the PT Training System.

Two weeks ago it was the PTQ road trip to end all PTQ road trips, a double-dip trip from Dallas to Little Rock to Dallas to Austin all in one weekend. Nobody in the car won that weekend, though a couple of us got damn close to the top eight. Last weekend was a home game, the PTQ was just forty-five minutes west in the Town of the Cow, Fort Worth, Texas. Everyone takes their own car to that one, it's just easier to do it that way. This week, it's another lengthy road trip. This time, it's Lubbock, Texas.
In the movie, Crash is riding a rickety old bus and talking to his minor league teammates about his time at the Major League Baseball level. The show. Like Crash Davis and his teammates, I'm trying to get to the pros. I want to get to the show bad enough that I'm willing to drive a long way from home to take my chances with Khans of Tarkir sealed deck.
My first large tournament is in the record books with warm memories left behind. I was well-prepared with a powerful deck and dreams of making day two. To say I enjoyed the experience is an understatement: it was awesome, and I don't use that word lightly. Magic has become a sub-culture, growing over the past few years into a massive community. The ability to be a part of that community is both humbling and energizing.
I was still riding high from my trip to the Grand Prix in Chicago. I had been playing regularly at local stores. But since that cashing in Chicago, things were different. As soon as I walked in the door I'm now greeted and approached by a lot of the mid-level players asking advice. After the usual greetings, and entry into whatever the event is, I sit down and offer as much as I can. Sincerity is always the goal, even if I come out and flatly say, "This deck doesn't work." None are offended, and by the end of the evening, we're all smiling, laughing, and congratulating whomever came out on top. I wouldn't trade these experiences for anything.
[p]What's the earliest you've ever gotten up in the morning to play Magic? I'm not talking about staying up all night, either. How far are you willing to drive to get to a tournament without going the day before and staying in a hotel? My limits have changed over the years, and they only seem to move in one direction, longer and longer road trips starting earlier and earlier in the morning. This trip strained my personal limit of how far I was willing to drive on the morning of the event.
The Texas Magic community assembled on March 22 for the first annual Hunter Burton Memorial Magic Open. It was held at a site very familiar to competitive players, the Fort Worth Convention Center. There were 169 players in this very special event. Five thousand dollars in cash was split up among the top eight. Hundreds of Born of the Gods packs were distributed to players outside the top eight. The eight Swiss rounds were played with Standard decks, the top eight players drafted Modern Masters. Modern Masters has become more than an excellent marketing idea by Wizards of the Coast, I believe it is Magic's first truly eternal draft format.
At the FNM the week before the Grand Prix in Chicago, a group of us discussed the possibility of going to the tournament. Several of the gang had attended Grand Prix's in Cincinnati, Richmond, Philadelphia, and others. I had stayed behind due to familial obligations or financial constraints. However, this time I felt I could swing it and go on a field trip. I threw my hat into the ring volunteering my car to be the bus to Chicago. That appeared to be the big hurdle. The rest of the plans fell into place.
A mere sixty players showed up for the sealed deck Pro Tour Qualifier at the Comfort Inn on Interstate 30 just outside Little Rock, Arkansas. Six rounds of Swiss with a relatively soft field of competitors? That deal was too good to pass up for Pro Tour veteran Neil Reeves. Plus, the event was just half an hour or so from his home in Conway. He came, he saw, he conquered. In the finals Neil was paired with a player from his store in Conway, Mizewell Games. Neil defeated Matt Hudson in what was his most difficult match all day. Just like that, after almost eight years away from the big game, Neil Reeves was once again qualified for the Pro Tour.
On March 8th I marched into Waco with one more opportunity. DeQuan Watson, owner of Waco's best shop, The Game Closet, and Jim Shuman, owner of Madness Comics and Games in Denton, teamed up to put on a great event. There were 129 players comfortably situated in a nice hotel convention space near downtown Waco.
In part one of my report from Pro Tour Valencia, I shared the adventure of traveling to Valencia, meeting up with my three roommates for the weekend, and competing in the first three rounds of day one at the Pro Tour. The first three rounds were Born of the Gods booster draft. The remaining five rounds of day one are Modern constructed.

In order to really understand the needs of Hawke, our dedicated marketing consultants travelled from TFA HQ in Milton Keynes to Hawke's offices to discuss exactly what they were looking to achieve. From this meeting, we were able to create full design brief that would allow our experienced team of web designers and web developers to create a brand new website design that would be an evolution of Hawke's current website – not so much a revolution! As we are also a successful and experienced social media company in Milton Keynes, we were also able to offer advice on social media activities that would be advantageous to Hawke and it's on-line business presence.
We concentrated on making the website design as clean and clear as possible. Because the current Hawke website design was very content-heavy, we focussed on presenting data and complex design diagrams in the most visually intuitive ways possible. We also looked to make the site an evolution in design in order not to alienate regular visitors but also retain Hawke's overall brand identity.
Hawke have been extremely pleased with the evolution of their website design and are also looking to implement a new website design – with added social media interaction – in the coming year. By keeping all our web development and graphic design capabilities in-house, We're able to offer the complete website development consultancy service – something that many creative agencies in Milton Keynes cannot do! If you are looking to redevelop your website, get in touch with us and we'll do our best to help in any way we can.

Author has written 1 story for Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
Pre-Script: Whether you are a member of an allied force dedicated to annihilate shadow or a nefarious villain aiming to search information about the light, you will not find this letter helpful at all.
Dear Reader,
iamasuperhero is the fictitious name I use as cover for my identity from the dark army lurking the vast universe and threatening the existence of mankind and life. Undergoing a precautionary investigation on this website they call FanFiction, I found no presence of the shadow. Therefore I devoted myself in hopes of letting the public know the tales of Percy Jackson as the Celestial Noble.
The Celestial Noble series focuses on the life of the demigod Percy Jackson after the Battle of Manhattan. He is a son of Poseidon – the sea God – and once known as hero of Olympus. Betrayed by his love, friends and home, he struggled as an outcast hunted by varieties of monsters, demigods, gods, and the shadow. Horror had been his chaperone in life until the light shone and brightened his path.
First in the series is The Eluding Prelude. Set four months after the second titan war, Percy Jackson's life underwent a drastic change. One morning, he received news that brought him joy and pain. And for that matter, he found himself weaving a tangled web of misery, despair, betrayal, horror and death.
About the author:
Inspired by highly regarded writers of this wretched world, Liselotte Arthuria devoted her life in writing down the dreadful life of Percy Jackson and shed light on the vast darkening army of shadow. Highly listed at the kill-on-the-spot-when-you-see list of the shadow, she lived as a nomad avoiding monsters and death, consuming non stomach-turning meals and researching the life of her hero, Percy. Biographical details of Liselotte are of no sinister importance and are classified information, thus, must not – at any cost – be told.
Post-Script: Information regarding the shadow will soon be posted.
Highly regarded writers of this wretched world that inspired her are the following:
Rick Riordan who first told the life of Percy Jackson during the titan war;
Lemony Snicket who, in his solemn duty, dedicated his life researching and writing the history of the heart freezing burdensome dreadful lives of the Baudelair orphans;
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who breathed life to the illustrious detective Sherlock Holmes;
Clive Staples Lewis who told the tales of Narnia;
Mark Haddon who narrated the life of an autistic fifteen year-old boy gifted with a superbly logical brain, Christopher John Francis Boone.
Liselotte Arthuria claims no any form of ownership of the listed writers' works nor any phrases excerpted from those.
Anyone curious of how Sixtus looks like? Nekoriel made it possible. This is a portrait of Sixtus. Personally, I think it looks like Logan Lerman. What do you think?

Love it so much!its fun and time killer.i want to request you make 100X100 or 1000X1000.that how much i like this game!please make 1000X1000, so we need to work on the same picture for about a week.LOL.and more pixel mean greater pixel art!pls read this!! I cant wait >_<
What I love about it is the very intuitive gameplay, nice and not annoying music and a satisfying clicking sound for each match. The retro interface also adds to the game's charm. BUG: Sometimes its impossible to connect 2 numbers although they are correct
Level titles are egregiously wrong in many instances, and a few of them are words that don't even exist. Needs MUCH better English transition. There are distinct lag issues when tapping and dragging lines. May be a finger tracking issue, not sure.
I think there is a problem with the 15x15 ink and nib puzzle. I've filled out the whole thing multiple times, but the number 6 in the upper right corner should be a 7 or there's always 1 blank square left and it cannot be passed. I'm not doing anything wrong - if the whole puzzle is filled in and there's still a blank square then is not a problem with HOW I filled it, it legit wasn't counted correctly. Otherwise, I love this game. I will update if the bug is fixed and/or if I find others.
I blew through all the puzzles in a few days. It definitely could use more puzzles, especially 20x20.
I love this game. It's not too hard but just challenging enough to not make it boring.
It's really fun and addicting! Every time I start playing it I have to force myself to stop.
I liked Line Pics and I like this one too - more please! :-)
So happy to have found these apps. I used to buy specialist puzzle books with these puzzles in when I lived in England but moved to Canada 5 years ago & couldn't find these puzzles anywhere. Have never seen them online before either. Love that I can now do them again thanks to this app! Will spend many hours doing them now no doubt. Thanks so much for making them available for so many to enjoy.
I'm sorry after my last post I realized you did have instructions. So I gave you 5 stars I really like the game it's fun and challenging. Good Job
No dubious permissions, no background services or receivers that will kick into action even when the game is not running, just a few not-very-obtrusive ads, and will run even when you've lost connection...
Hubby introduced me to it and now i'm addicted! Difficulty increases as you progress, completely free and great fun.*** finished, more levels please!***
So much fun. Fast and easy. Starts out easy and gradually gets more difficult. I've only found two apps like this. Different than the graph counting.
Great game so far. Just challenging enough that it is still fun but not so crazy that it's not relaxing.
Extremely Addicting. 5 Stars if they can get bigger sizes. Took only 2 days to beat every level
Starts off easy and progressively becomes more difficult. I use it to wind down after work for a few minutes
If you're looking for a good puzzle game to challenge yourself and pass the time, you've come to the wrong app. There's something to be said for having puzzles be too hard, but most of these puzzles are way too easy and can be solved at a glance, even in the larger puzzles. Not only that, but the pixel art the game is broadcasting is pretty terrible, even in some of the larger puzzles. Some of the mechanics for zooming in and moving the puzzle around could also be a bit more intuitive, and the app has the bad habit of not saving your puzzle progress ever, so you can't set a puzzle aside to finish later. And don't even get me started on the ads. I can deal with the annoying flashy ads on the sides like you see in most free games, but this one has the bad habit of making an ad appear just as you are trying to hit the button to go to the next puzzle. It makes it very frustrating to have to constantly close unintentional pop up windows, especially when they immediately blare noise. So, no, I didn't particularly care for this app. Sorry.
Love the first set, same with this one. More more more. I'm addicted to these things
It'd be five stars easy if I could turn the ads off!
Done games 1 & 2. When is 3 out. Yes there are adverts in the free version. It the little X and away it goes. Next round.
Just finished 10x10 set. Still easy but calm fun. Am looking forward to larger puzzles!
Quite simple but addicting. It is obviously translated from another language or culture but it doesn't spoil the fun!
I love this game because I love to count anything that l can it helps your mind and hand work cord nation
Absolutely delightful game! So very pleasantly surprised! Please keep up the exceptional work!
I have an addiction to these types of puzzles.
It's a cool combination.

About: The Royal London Hospital The Royal London Hospital London E1 1BB
Posted via NHS Choices
My GP referred me here for an urgent ultrasound. Called to try and arrange an appointment- turns out they don't do appointments over the phone and I was advised to walk in and that I would be seen upon arrival. Walked in today and was told to go home and wait for a call back this afternoon and that I would probably be seen today. Was called and offered an appointment- in a week. Apparently the first available. When I asked, pointing out that my referral has urgent on it, I was offered an appointment in another part of the trust in two days time. It's not clear to me why they don't accept appointments over the phone or why they're giving misleading information about a walk-in service which seems not to exist. I did definitely just waste two days of annual leave though. On the plus side the receptionist was very friendly. Clearly this is an issue with poor management, inadequate procedures and insufficient capacity to manage their caseload.

Awesome, put simply.
The new art style is awesomely amazing, and the action and special effects were incredible. The music was right on.
But something I would like to stress intensely is that, like Nanophreak said, I was only mildly amused. The older episodes were hilarious and had me and my brother laughing the whole way through.
Keep up the good work, but I want to burst out laughing in episode six!
Even still, this was very well-animated, and very funny. I've been anxiously awaiting the return of this series, but it looks like there's even more waiting to do. Ah, well. Keep doin' whatcha do, Gene.
Art reminds me of Marvin Spectrum
You should put Marvin in this.

Spanning the Film and ENG worlds, and supporting 4K production, the Fujinon 25-300 mm T3.5 to 3.85 Cabrio Premier PL Lens is a 12x zoom for super 35mm size single sensor cameras with a PL mount.
The long zoom range allows you to shoot medium wide to long shots without changing lenses, and it holds its maximum T3.5 aperture from 25 to 273mm, almost the entire length of the zoom, losing less than half a stop as it reaches 300mm. This minimized iris ramping makes it easier to use a continuous zoom along the entire zoom range of the lens.
The focus ring features 280 degrees of rotation, providing for accurate focus adjustments, and the 120-degree zoom rotation is consistent with other lenses in the Cabrio line. The focus, zoom, and iris barrels are geared with standard 0.8 film pitch, which provides an interface for the optional removable ENG-style digital drive unit. The rear PL mount features electrical contacts for sharing Arri LDS and Cooke /i Technology lens data with the camera.
An optional detachable drive unit converts the lens to an ENG configuration, and it incorporates a zoom rocker switch, 16-bit encoding, and an interface for remote control via a wired or wireless controller from Fujinon or other compatible, third party manufacturers. When the optional drive unit is attached to the lens, a digital auto-aligning system quickly and accurately calibrates it to the zoom, focus, and iris gears. Power is provided by either an external connector or the PL mount's "hot shoe" interface. Included with the lens is a 111mm clear protection filter that helps to protect the front of the lens.
Key Features:
Mount Type: PL
Image Circle: 31.5 mm diameter (supports 27.45 x 15.44 mm sensors)
Focal Length: 25 to 300 mm
Zoom Ratio: 12x
Aperture: Max

My revised review of the Digitech Vocalist Live 3
On Monday, after grabbing a Digitech Vocal Live 3 from my local big-box music store, I wrote about my initial experience with it. It can add a rich vocal harmony to your vocals, but it doesn't read suspended chords very well, and it grabs your guitar sound from the mic and even harmonises that.
And also, the vocal signal is missing any real dynamic frequency range. I absolutely hated the sound I was getting out of the "unprocessed" signal, even when dialling the high and low cut levels to flat.
So, when I did the initial recording tests, I used the MXL 990 (left), which captures both my guitar and vocals very beautifully in one go. But it clearly was the wrong mic to use with the VL3. I promptly trashed those recordings. And then I fished out my old, trusty, Senheiser E835 and plugged it in.
The Senheiser mic is actually quite comparable to Shure's flagship vocal microphone. When I need to replace this, it'll be a tough call between this and a Shure SM58. But for now, I have this little guy to give the pedal one last chance to prove itself. And so how did the Digitech Vocal Live 3 fare this time around?
A quick primer on how to set this up.
- Plug your microphone into the XLR or line-in input.
- Plug an XLR out (or two, for stereo?) to your mixer.
- Grab two guitar cables and plug them in to patch the guitar sound through this and then back to your mixer.
- Warmth adds a tube-like preamp. EQ are low and hi boost/cut knobs. The guitar level knob controls how much guitar is output through this little bad boy.
- Humanise slightly randomises the pitch and delay of the harmony vocalists, and you can control their level relative to yours. I hear you can turn that knob all the way up and effectively cut out your own voice, leaving only the harmony parts.
- Then there are the harmony buttons at the top. You can set a 'gender' for the voices as well as how they sing relative to you.
- At the bottom are the footswitches to switch between A and B; turn on the pitch correction, reverb, chorus (guitar only), and delays; and of course, sing harmony.
- Easy as pie, right? Sure.
So, I set up on the A/B two different harmony patterns. A> is set to a voice about a 3rd above mine and a 4th below, and B> is set to double my vocals and then do one an octave down. I only set Bank 1 for this test, because I am not seeing how many different vocal harmonies I can get out of the VL3. I just want it to work properly.
The rest of the settings you can see in the photo at the very top, in case you care. EQ settings have more high-end, less low. Pitch correct isn't even on, and the warmth is just about in the middle.
So with these settings I tried out two old songs of mine. You can hear the results below.
And By the Way (Will You Be There?)
First off, any mumbly sounds you may hear coming from me are just me forgetting the words. However, any weird pitch issues aside from me being flat are indeed the VL3 being literally unable to even fathom what notes it should be singing.
Also on this track, I would think that the harmony is turned off, but it's still turned on, and I'd think that I'm on the A patch, but I'm actually on the B. Basically, the footswitches are a little hard to hit with any degree of accuracy. I previous take of this song had me somehow playing from bank 6, and I don't even know what was coming out of the mic at that point.
Anyway, with the Senheiser, the VL3 doesn't try to tune the guitar. It's all in the microphone choice. I'm glad I gave it a second chance because I'd hate to hate this thing off of a first impression. A microphone that is a bit more unidirectional works wonders when playing through this vocal pedal.
But still, the VL3 is a bit (a lot) flubby with the harmonies. In this song, I use a lot of suspended chords. My A shape is an A(sus2), and the B-major chord is alternately a B(sus4) or a B(add13)/F#. They do a great job to throw off the VL3's ability to guess what chord is playing, apparently. My favourite part is after the bridge of the song, the pedal decides to perform a sound not unlike I'm being drowned.
Close to You
This song is a straight up rocker in B-minor. I thought I was gonna confuse the VL3 a lot more with my locrian F-major (augmented 4th), but that chord actually only gets played during the instrumentals.
I got a better feel for foot placement with this one, and also made sure to look down to make sure the proper lights are lit. What occurs are harmonies exactly where I want them, and no flubby harmonies.
At the end, I hold out the final note as long as I can so you can more clearly hear the distortion on the vocal signal. There's more mids on that then there should be. Mids all the way. Mids 4EVR!!!
So. I was a little harsh on the Digitech last night. Maybe I was just a little cranky. Maybe I just stupidly thought microphones don't matte. At any rate, this is not a one-star item.
Other musicians have bought the VL3 and given it wonderful reviews. My rating yesterday was basically, good on them, I think this is crap.
Today, I'm giving it a 3. Maybe I'll keep it a week and see if I can't get that score up to a 4. Stay tuned to this spot to see what other little musical gems I try this on.
One Comment
I bought a Vocalist Live 3 (second hand) and after 2 weeks one switch (the Harmony one, on the right side) was broken. Where can I buy a new one (repairing it by myself)?
Thank you.

Okay, so, my Duckies, it turns out that the giant chicken, whom I have lovingly named Jay-Z (it only makes sense since Jenny Lawson's Chicken is named Beyonce), is….. wait for it….. not for sale. 🙁
The lady who owned the chicken at this thrift shop, however, did inform me that she acquired Jay-Z from a man about 5 hours away. And that she payed almost $400 for him… IF ONLY I HAD $400 DOLLARS!!!!
So then I got thinking… If I were to launch a kickstarter in order to acquire Jay-Z, would you donate? My thought is that he can live in my backyard and keep birds from flying into my window… not to mention, he can totally be supportive when I'm sad… or he'd be awesome to take Christmas photos with… I could even try to put him on wheels and have Gio pull us around town. The possibilities are endless, people.
Who's with me??

In Fantastical, Marija Bulatovic recalls growing up in Yugoslavia in vivid detail. Some of the stories are touching while others, such as the hot dog one, are humorous. You see, Bulatovic loved hot dogs until the day her mother declared that hot dogs cause hemophilia! Although the chapters of Fantastical are not exactly cohesive, the beautiful writing makes it a lovely collection of short stories.

Various Amusements
AES Gallery
Long Island City, NY
For several years, I have been working on Menagerie Recovery, a historical fiction project featuring mixed media cast paper and bronze animal sculptures. Inspired by the tradition of the traveling menagerie - collections of exotic animals displayed throughout Europe and the United States in the 17th to early 20th centuries - each of my menageries is connected to a specific historical figure, with the animals representing aspects of that person's accomplishments and significance. Presented as recently recovered, rare and endangered species, the animals are remnants of the bygone era that predated the modern zoological garden. They are small and intimate, based more on memory than on observation, and possessed of a haunting presence that is at times almost human.
Paintings, prints, an artist book, and textual histories document both the animals' imaginary worlds, and their recent recovery from neglect and/or natural misfortune.

The Mind of the Terrorist
By Jerrold Post, MD
Dr. Jerry Post, a psychiatrist with twenty years at the CIA creating leadership profiles and now Professor of Political Psychology and International Affairs at George Washington University, has been a regular presenter at the Highlands Forum since its beginning in 1995. Over the years he has supported the Forum with research on the "insider problem" in organizations, a look at the disgruntled information technology insider who holds the keys to the organization in his hands; on the culture of risk in a distributed networked environment; and on the motivations of terrorists. Now comes his latest book, The Mind of the Terrorist: The Psychology of Terrorism from the IRA to al-Qaeda. Post has told us in past discussions: "it is not going too far to assert that terrorists are psychologically "normal" in the sense of not being clinically psychotic. They are neither depressed nor severely emotionally disturbed, nor are they crazed fanatics. In fact, terrorist groups and organizations screen out emotionally unstable individualswho represent, after all, a security risk. There is a multiplicity of individual motivations. For some, it is to give a sense of power to the powerless; for others, revenge is a primary motivation; for still others, to gain a sense of significance. Rather than individual psychology, then, what emerges as the most powerful lens through which to understand terrorist behavior is that of group, organizational, and social psychology, with a particular emphasis on collective identity". In The Mind of the Terrorist Post traces individual groups and movements to explore the individual and the collective and he ends with a view of the changing face of terrorism. His conclusion is disturbing in that he finds them to be "normal", and Post tracks these cases to help identify how and why these people go on to become purveyors of terror. Better yet, Post lays out a number of recommendations on ways to cut the supply of those willing to kill and/or die, and soft power plays a large role. This is a valuable companion to Mark Jurgensmeyers Terror in the Mind of God for those who wish to know more about "who and why".

From my mother's side I have one uncle and two aunts. When my grandmother was about 60 years old she had abdominal surgery, she was asked how many children she had, my mother was there with her and the doctor and found out that my younger aunt it's not my aunt and she was brought by my grandfather after riots happened in our country.
My grandfather married his nephew's wife. They had no children but had a bunch of cats and dogs, named after his nephews and nieces, so there was a cat named Luis, like her ex husband.
My great grand mother was murdered by her nurse, she was very sick during being pregnant with my grand mother and needed to be taken care of, after she died the nurse married my grandfather and kept my grand mother as a pet. Literally, she had a cage and everything.

Heat sign veteran guard Shannon Brown to 1-year deal
The Miami Heat made another move to strengthen a position of need, signing guard Shannon Brown on Wednesday.
Congrats to guard Shannon Brown on signing with the @MiamiHEAT! Best of luck with your new team!
— Priority Sports (@PrioritySports) August 27, 2014
Brown, 28, was originally a first-round draft pick by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2006 but is most well-known for his stint with the Los Angeles Lakers where he won two championships in 2009 and 2010 as a key reserve.
The veteran has averaged 7.7 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists over eight seasons with seven different teams.
As a Laker, he was selected to the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest in 2010 but did not advance past the first round. After the 2011 NBA lockout, he signed with the Phoenix Suns where he averaged a career-high 11.0 points 2.7 rebounds in the 2011-12 season. He played briefly for the San Antonio Spurs on a pair of 10-day contracts before signing on for the rest of the 2013-14 season with the New York Knicks.
Brown, who had previous ties with Knicks president Phil Jackson and head coach Derek Fisher, also played in the Knicks summer league team this year before he was waived on July 23, a move made to avoid fully guaranteeing his contract.
While he may not be the explosive player he was several years ago, Brown brings plenty of postseason experience and will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing season where he averaged a career-low PER of 4.78. The Heat could easily slot him in behind Dwyane Wade, with untested rookie Tyler Johnson the only other shooting guard presently on the roster.
Brown's deal with the Heat is being reported as being for one year at $1.3 million though it is not known as of yet if it is fully guaranteed.
Shannon Brown's deal with the Miami Heat is for one year, $1.3 million.

Hold The Fort Bank
(Five Hole Variation)
by Sy Schreckinger – ANTIQUE TOY WORLD Magazine – February, 1993
War games and weaponry have always fascinated
youngsters. This becomes evident when children, and boys in particular,
are observed at play. They delight in brandishing cap pistols, arranging
toy soldiers in miniature army formations, and protecting their combatants
within the confines of the impenetrable fort.
Amongst those who recognized the opportunity to capitalize upon
these youthful militaristic fantasies were nineteenth-century mechanical
bank manufacturers. These entrepreneurs combined the theme of armed
conflict with the then-popular thrift-save-a-penny philosophy which was
sweeping the nation. Both the Shepard Hardware Company, of Buffalo, New
York, and the J. and E. Stevens Company, of Cromwell, Connecticut,
prominent bank manufacturers of the era, produced no fewer than five
variants of the "Artillery" Bank (Figure I). In addition, Stevens
manufactured the "Target" Bank and the "U.S. and Spain" Bank which also
incorporate the fort and the cannon theme.
Two other mechanical banks utilizing a fort and cannon are the "Fort
Sumpter" Bank and the subject of this month's article, "Hold the Fort"
Bank (Figure II). Unfortunately, there is little known information
pertaining to the manufacturers of either of these mechanicals. The "Hold
the Fort" Bank was designed and patented by Samuel Clark of Brooklyn, New
York. Mr. Clark was granted Patent number
197,250 on November 20, 1877
(Figure III). As indicated by the patent drawings, the manufacturer
adhered faithfully to Mr. Clark's original design.
The action of "Hold the Fort" is appropriately described in an early
trade flyer, Figure IV, as follows: "'HOLD THE FORT' AN AMUSING AND
INSTRUCTIVE TOY BANK FOR BOYS. Pull back the ring until the rod is held in
place by the lever. Tip the Bank, lay the Coin on the Target, and drop the
Shot in the Cannon." "The shot generally follows the coin into the Bank
and escapes out of the perforated bottom.
"The coin placed in position forms the target. The ball projected by
a spring strikes the coin with sufficient force to carry it into the bank.
"A percussion wafer can be used to add to the amusement, and will
encourage the saving of money." Deposits are removed by unscrewing the
coin retainer, which represents an arched doorway at the end of the bank,
directly behind the cannon.
Interestingly, there are not only two casting variations of "Hold the
Fort," but a "Hold the Fort" inkstand. The bank variations are referred to
as "Hold the Fort" Bank, five holes (Figure II), and "Hold the Fort" Bank,
seven holes. The holes refer to the round portholes cast into the sides of
each bank. The aforementioned arched door coin retainer resides upon the
five‑hole bank. The seven-hole "Hold the Fort" utilizes a screw-on,
rectangular coin-retainer which is located underneath its base.
An advertisement within the Winter 1877 issue of the American
Athletic Journal read as follows: " 'Hold the Fort' Bank. Sent by mail,
prepaid, $1.25. A few shot and caps and a flag, are packed with each
bank." Also offered by the advertiser is the "Hold the Fort" inkstand. It
varies somewhat in appearance from the bank in that its walls have a
rougher, pebblier texture and is not as attractively painted. In addition,
the name "HOLD THE FORT" is cast onto the lower portion of the front edge.
Fortunate is the collector who owns both "Hold the Fort" variants and a
"Hold the Fort" inkstand. All are extremely scarce, and all make an
attractive display.
The color schemes of both "Hold the Fort" Banks are similar. The top,
bottom, and four sides may be either tan or gray. The crenellations and
raised decorations on the walls are dark blue and red. The cannon can be
either dark blue or black, and the target enclosure is painted bright red.
Although the previously discussed advertisement had indicated the
inclusion of a flag with the "Hold the Fort" Bank, to date, none has
materialized. Nevertheless, if an authentic example were to surface, its
colors would certainly be that of Old Glory, i.e., red, white, and blue.
The "Hold the Fort" five and seven-hole Banks, are equally uncommon,
and neither one commands a higher price than the other.

And if you're like me and you had to be online over the Festive Season, now's the time to take a proper break! J-P and I absolutely love the East Coast, and last year we went to Jeffrey's Bay for Easter and in December we went to Port Elizabeth for a week. I find everything about the trip up charming, from stopping at little farm stalls in Robertson to finding a Wimpy in the most obscure little towns. (I love Wimpy. Don't judge me.)

Nithya Menon the actress from Veppam and Siddharth's 180, has not signed up for any other Kollywood releases this year. She however has loads of projects lined up in the neighboring regions. Apart from Okkadine in Telugu her Mollywood projects include Bachelor Party and another flick named Ustad Hotel.
Now the actress finds herself in a fix, as both of her Malayalam projects are having troubling making it to theater halls. While shooting for another Molly project titled Tatsamayam Oru Penkutty, she was paid a visit by producer Anto Joseph to discuss on his new movie. Trying to complete her shoots on time, Nithya asked her manager to schedule a meeting at a later time with Anto. Her behavior was not welcomed by the producer and things took a different turn all together. The actress says, "The film happened at a time when I was mentally exhausted and didn't want to meet anyone, which was probably why the controversy happened in the first place." As a result the Kerala Film Producers' Association's (KFPA) issued a ban on the release of Nithya's upcoming films – Usthad Hotel and Bachelor Party. Infact the ban came in place before signing for the two projects, and now she has been asked to give a public apology to lift the ban. The decision of the producer's signing up the actress in the face of her banned status is highly questionable.
We hope Nithya gets herself out of this mess, soon.

When was the last time you reviewed your Life Insurance needs? It's natural for people to buy Life Insurance and then promptly take that policy and stuff it into a drawer or a filing cabinet for who knows how long.
Regardless of why individuals purchase life insurance, it's critical to review when they purchased the insurance, why they purchased it and what may have changed since the time they purchased the
For example, one may have purchased life insurance 10 years ago for the purpose of leaving a loved one a legacy, but due to the type of policy and how it performed, the death benefit may now be worthless.
It's also not uncommon for people to accumulate and fund multiple policies over a lifetime but not update the ownership and beneficiary information and life evolves. This could result in the distribution of the life insurance proceeds to unintended recipients.
That is why it is critical to periodically conduct a life insurance review with your advisor. Unforeseen events in our lives, ranging from divorce to bankruptcy, can have devastating effects on how our beneficiaries are supported after our death. Tax and estate planning laws change frequently and may have unforeseen impacts on older policies.
A simple review of your policies could mean the difference between assets reaching your loved ones or being frozen in probate court.
Also the fact is, life insurance costs have come down in recent years – and innovative new products have hit the market. As a result:
- You may be able to lower your premium cost for the same amount of coverage.
- You may be able to increase coverage for the same premium amount.
- It may be possible to improve the death benefit guarantee (subject to premium payment requirements).
- There may be ways to improve policy performance and increase cash values.
- If you are over age 65, you may be able to get cash for your life insurance policy.
At the same time, if you have permanent life insurance, you need to know: Policy performance can change dramatically over time. Without regular review by an insurance expert, policies – especially older ones – can pose significant risk of not achieving their original intended goals.
That is why we recommend a yearly review of your life insurance coverage to make sure you're still on track to meet your goals. Whether it is updating the beneficiary on your life insurance, or simply reviewing your current plan.
Mintco Financial Team of Independent Advisors can help you with your Life Insurance Review.

Boston, MA (PressExposure) December 23, 2009 -- Wes Madan, who became CEO of United Oil Heat in 1998, is in hot water with his competitors over his on line directory. Oil Heat Inc. is a Mansfield -based residential heating oil company founded by his father, Bill, in 1978.
A couple of years ago when Wes Madan was contemplating ways to fuel oil business for United Oil Heat Inc. "I remembered a conversation my father and I had a number of years earlier."
Wes Madan had mentioned that the company should have a Web site where customers could conveniently place their oil orders. The idea then sat on the back burner until technology had advanced to a point where the concept suddenly seemed to have real market potential Madan decided it was time. In 2007 with oil prices rising Madan launched Discountheatingoilprices.com as a division of United Oil Heat Inc.
Madan said "People my age and under don't use phone books anymore we Google everything. Why not home heating oil"
He attempted to create a web site for his business on his own, but anytime he did it, it ended up being a brochure rather than a serious e-commerce site.
He then decided to engage the creative services of Boston web designers a division of MBA Team of Littleton MA. With years of Web design experience Boston web designers soon delivered a fully functional e-commerce site with all the bells and whistles including a controversial search engine friendly web directory of his competitors.
"Having a web presence definitely gives Wes huge advantages over his competitor's that do not have an e- commerce site. " James Kennedy, of MBA Team and Boston web designers," People today are very busy and enjoy the convenience of being able comparison shop and order there heating oil on line."
Discountheatingoilprices.com recently came under scrutiny over the on-line directory of competitors on its site.
Some of his competitors wanted to be removed from the directory stating that some people may be confused and that they may construe that their company is in a business partnership with Mr. Madan. However, it is intended to be a list of competitors, and used by the sites visitors, to obtain price comparison. By bringing up the prices of oil and the companies that offer it the area and showing the price they are offering in that area.
Wes does admit however that the disclaimers on his site originally were not prominent enough on his site and has such rectified the situation.
Discountheatingoilprices.com is one of a slew of new online discount companies offering discounts of up to 30% on everyday items like home heating oil that years ago you would have never seen.

friend of mine in Sicily, and that's why I always followed with particular attention to his career.
Rosario Fiorello was born in Catania, Sicily, in 1960 and is still a teenager when he started to do the deejay in a small local radio station, from there it goes to make the animator in tourist villages and these are the professional references of Fiorello, is, as they say in America a self-made man, a natural talent.
Its popularity began when he has a television, the 'Karaoke', which was then a novelty, Fiorello can imitate the voices of the singers and also sings well, has a great success that continues for years, unable to do fun when the public and this has helped him even more.
Fiorello then switch on radio and television with television shows in which he is the main character, now, as I write, Fiorello's television shows are the most followed and loved in Italy: with his imitations can do political satire, as well as to mimic many, many Italian singers, ballet ...
Fiorello fails, after years of bad television, to bring back the TV show in Italy to the levels of the golden era of Italian Tv shows of '60s and '70s. They are his famous duets with Eros Ramazzotti and Giorgia his personal friends.
Here, are some vocal performances of Fiorello:

Going back to reality..once again...
Panama City Travel Blog› entry 32 of 32 › view all entries
My last day in Panama city would be a relaxing one...no sightseeing or anything. I had only one goal ; to get a little bit of colour before I go back to UK...well that did`nt happen , as it was pouring down all day, typically !
I checked in to the same hostel as the last time, simply because it was a really cheap place with cheap beer,and a perfect location in the middle of amazing Casco Viejo !
I spent most of the day drinking beer after beer in my dorm bed, knowing that this would be the cheapest beers I would have in a very long time. I suppose the other people there took me for a chronic alcoholic..
In the evening I had to go buy some souvenirs, which is something I thought I should do after 5 weeks of travelling. So I bought a Panama hat (that I very well know I will never use again) , and a beer-t-shirt.
I had a beautiful Quesedilla meal at great Tequila resturant, and then I would have a long night sleep before the next days horrid travels.
The following day I went to the airport many hours before I had to ,to make sure i caught the flight to New York. In New York it was just as horrible as the last time I had a transit. First a long wait where I was questioned by two different police man on random checks. Then questioned by the policeman taking my fingerprints and picture. Then lastly cop number 4 came to ask my life story at the luggage place.
I was really nervous when he took me away....I was thinking in the lines of anal probes and such...
He went through all my stuff, and asked a number of questions, often repeating them to check if my story was coming apart ! Then he was really suspicious of how I could travel for 5 weeks when I was unemployed.....ehhhm ,hello ? Don`t you think I can afford a trip in the cheapest countries in the world after working for 4 months in the most expensive country in the world, and living for free at home with mommy ? seriously.....
I`ll pay a lot of extra money to avoid layover in USA from now on.
I took the first bus to Southampton, then the boat over to my new exotic home - Isle of Wight !
So for this time the journey is over....my mom keeps asking me if this is`nt it ; " now you`ve travelled again, and must be tired of that non-sense travelling thing" .... and she is sooooo wrong ! the more I travel , the more I want to travel ! I may have a disease or addiction , I haven`t even got a job yet, and already started planning where my next trip should take me....

The Church and dialogue with Science
Today, scientists will be attempting to discover more about the origins of the Universe by recreating the aftermath of the Big Bang.
Engineers will attempt to circulate a beam of particles around the 27km-long underground tunnel which houses the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The collider is operated by the European Organization for Nuclear Research - better known by its French acronym CERN. The vast circular tunnel which runs under the French-Swiss border contains more than 1,000 cylindrical magnets arranged end-to-end.
The experiment is one of the most complex and significant of modern times - and one that raises a lot of questions.
In Thinking Faith, the great potential for dialogue between religion and science is explored by John Moffatt SJ, in his keynote lectures from the 2008 Living Theology summer school at Ushaw College, Durham. Read >> www.thinkingfaith.org/articles/20080909_1.htm

Unanswered: reading data from secure database
I have a secure Access 2000 database and my own MDW file. What I'd like to do is read the permissions for each of my user groups for each object by using a separate db. (6 groups x ~255 objects = too many permissions to check manually)
What I tried to do was:
Dim dbSFIS As DAO.Database
Set dbSFIS = DBEngine.OpenDatabase("OpenDatabase.mdb")
If I create a new db using my MDW file I can open and read OpenDatabase.mdb just fine. However, if I close and reopen my new db I can no longer open OpenDatabase.mdb even if I use the same MDW when opening the new db.
I need to distribute my permissions reading db to several remote locations to get a base-line for the current permission setup at each location. I can't do this if my new db won't open the secure db.
Anyone have any ideas on why I can't re-open my new db and still open my existing db (OpenDatabase.mdw)? Or any ideas on a good way to generate a list of all the permissions in a db?

Discussion in 'On Topic' started by UCLA throwing, May 1, 2007.
more WMDers should be in this
at 4am ? fuck that.
Looked like a ballistics argument = boring
Although it's good that the rest of OT seems to have given up arguing gun control with us.
hopefully my liberal comments can stir the pot a bit
im off to an eye appointment though...
first off, that jack faggot is a complete retard for comparing the mini 14 to an AR platform. the mini-14 MIGHT be a decent gun (if you can get one that shoots consistently) but to say its outright better than an AR?
also, @ guns knocking people down
Damn I missed that one, could have had some fun
Wow, that Lucien guy is a fucking toolbox.
NEVER did I say the Mini 14 was a better gun. Not only are you an ignorant tool box AR sackrider but you're too stupid to even comprehend what is being said to you. Just slap yourself now.
I said that I would pick the AR because in CALIFORNIA they are 1/2 the cost and much more available than an AR is. And in the case of zombies a 2" difference in shot grouping isn't going to mean shit at sub 100 yard.
I can only assume it was your intention to look like a total retard in that thread since you proceeded to do so marvelously.
It's unfortunate that even the gun crew has their morons.
oh great, now we have the main forum faggots invading...
hey fuckstick, rugers are shitty guns all around. the ONLY ruger id own is a mkiii for plinking. ruger himself is an anti gun douchebag(much like yourself, well the douchebag part at least) fuck ruger. id take an ar15(cali'ed or not) over a shitty ass ruger anything any day of the week.
Hey fuckwit I've been on this forum a while now.
But seriously I've never seen someone fail as bad at supporting an argument as you and Hoss have. It's like all you can do to prove your pitiful point is to type harder on your keys, not only that but you're too fucking stupid to even understand what's being said. God even when directly challenged to support your opinion with any sort of factual comparison you run away and hide.
good fucking times.
Oh and buy a sub, it's the least a moron like you can do for OT.
people dont need supporting proof to show that mini 14's blow cock compared to ARs; its fact.
2-3" difference in spread + ½ the price + more readably available in CA = blow cock when the zombies come :bowdown
You can't deny idiot fanboy logic like that.
this whole thing started because you said that ARs are no better than mini 14s in CA, right? what happens if you move out of the state? then you have a POS half-decent rifle.
why not just save up a little more and get the better gun? or are you too frusterated to do the reasearch in order to own one and you're defending your (poor) decision to the grave?
Lets see. Based on what you have said:
the Mini-14 is less than 1/3 as accurate as a decent AR
costs just as much (835 MSRP)
and is only easier to get if you are to damned lazy to find a dealer who will listen and read what the law actually says? Yah, is OBVIOUSLY a better rifle
I would sell it and by a real AR, not some rifle gripped or fixed maged bastardization.
When your argument comes down to "your poor" you know you've already lost. I pray to God you never enter an ON TOPIC discussion it would be like throwing babies to lions.
But too play along. You can make your Mini 14 shoot just as good if not better than an AR with modifications like a heavier barrel for still less than an AR in CA.
Too repeat because you're too stupid to understand things the first time they are told to you. You can make a mini 14 shoot just as good as an AR and still have it cost less.
<edited a word out>
if i wanted a range queen/patrol rifle, i'd get an AR.
if i wanted a work in the dirt rifle, i'd get a mini.
You can get mini 14 for under 400 so yes, 1/2 the price of a new AR. Can you find a second hand AR in CA for that much?
Easier to get = parts in stock when the zombies come FUCK it's a simple hypothetical.
Really where did i say the mini 14 was a better rifle? I said it was a better choice in the situtation. Why are the simple things so hard to understand?
lol @ cali
you can mod a civic to beat a ferrari in the quarter mile but, at the end of the day, you're still driving home in a honda.
great comeback.
as it comes to guns.
you're the one talking about modding a piece of shit rifle to "outshoot" something that you can shoot great with out of the box. how "ready" is that for a zombie invasion?
hay guys, check out my ak-74!
It's called an analogy. You might be learning about them next year in school.
i have one

Book Details
Eleven-year-old Sara Chapman lives an idyllic life, but in less than a week, her destiny will take a 180-degree turn. First, she is confronted by the apparition of her father, presumed dead in a mining accident. Then, there is another tragic accident. And finally…a true miracle.
Book Excerpt
Eleven year old Sara Chapman awoke early to be greeted by the work the frost fairies accomplished through the night. There was a light powder of snow on the ground and in the trees. The windows had icy designs on the panes. It was truly a wonder to behold.
Sara dressed warmly to go outside to begin her chores. She went to the chicken coop to collect eggs. Mrs. Wilkins was going to be by early to get two dozen. Sara liked to give her the largest. As her father told her, "Always give your best and you'll never go wrong." This wisdom Sara applied to everything she did.
Sara missed her father. He had been gone for two years now. He was lost in a mining accident. Sara was unable to accept the fact that the mine explosion took her father's life along with the other miners. She kept a secret hope tucked away in her heart that one day her father would be found alive or that he would return home on his own.
Sara had gathered the eggs and was sorting them for Mrs. Wilkins. She saw a shadow in the doorway. "Good morning Mrs. Wilkins, I'll have your eggs for you in a moment."
Sara looked up. That wasn't Mrs. Wilkins' voice. "Father?"
Yes, that was definitely her father. He was dressed in a sport's coat and slacks. He wasn't wearing a hat. His dark hair and dark eyes had a blue-black shine to them. Sara knew she was fully awake. It was not the morning sun reflecting off the snow and frost. There was no prism rainbow effect from the icicles hanging from the roof of the coop. She wanted to rush into his arms, but she couldn't seem to move. She was too overcome with surprise.
Sara heard very clearly her father say, "Sara you must not let your Uncle John sail on the Zaragoza to Europe."
"But Father, you can tell him. He won't listen to me."
"Do your best."
Then the shadow was gone. Sara rushed outside to catch her father. But he was not there. The powder of snow only showed her path of footprints.

text: Hey all, I'm a new convert to CM6 and I'm LOVING it! It's breathed new life into my phone... I haven't even started tweaking and overclocking! Anyway, on the last ROM I was using, I installed HTC_IME and loved it... I've tried several times to get it working on CM6 but can't get any love... So I'm looking for options. Honestly, if someone could point me to the options for the keyboard on CM6 so I could swap to the compact qwerty, I'd be a happy camper. Barring that, a working HTC_IME install or some amazing replacement keys that I know not of. Hit me!
