Behind the Shot
There are three key elements to standout wreck interior photos: a great artifact (in this case, a WWII truck), blue background to give the image depth, and marine life for additional interest and to illustrate that it's underwater. On a wreck like the Thistlegorm in the Red Sea, there are many subjects, but few can be framed against a blue background. During my workshops, we give the most photogenic features nicknames, so everyone knows where they are and can find the angle to unlock the shot. This is Julian's Truck, as Julian Cohen found a way to frame it against the blue. There is one small problem — to fit the truck in the frame, you must hold the camera back against the bulkhead, so you can't even look through the viewfinder when taking the shot. Camera: Nikon D700, Subal housing || Lens: Nikon 16mm fish-eye || Strobes: 3x Subtronic Alpha Pro, one inside truck, remote slave sensor || Settings: 1/2 sec @ f/14, ISO 400Our photo expert: Alex Mustard is a trained marine biologist who has been a full-time underwater photographer and author since 2004. After taking his first underwater shots at the age of 9, the U.K. native has become one of the world's most creative underwater photographers, and a pioneer in digital imaging who enjoys sharing the techniques behind his shots.

Wrecks are big and they don't move. Surely they should be easy to photograph? In actuality, they are one of the most challenging subjects, but memorable shots are more likely if we follow a few simple rules.
Size matters with wreck photography. Now is the time to pull out your widest lens and go for the big shots, showing as much recognizable ship structure as visibility allows. Nondivers always imagine wrecks as whole vessels sitting on the seabed, so photos in this style will be naturally appealing.
If the wreck is longer than the visibility, you can still shoot the entire thing; but most of the time you should focus your efforts on large, recognizable features, such as the bow, the stern, the bridge and the propeller. You might also include a diver in the frame to convey both a sense of exploration and scale.
Shooting such expanses of super-structure means your subject will be too large to illuminate with strobes, so leave them behind and utilize the ambient light. There are three options: Leave the images with a blue color cast for the maximum atmosphere, convert them to black-and-white for the most contrast, or use manual white balance and filters to bring out the colors of the wreckage. White balance alone will pull out the color of the wreckage, but it will also suck away the water color. Filters help us to hold a strong blue background.
When visibility is low, you'll create the most impact by shooting into the sun, boosting the contrast and showing the wreckage as a silhouette. Black-and-white pictures often work best when shot across the light to create areas of shade and highlight. For the most detail and color, you should shoot with the sun coming over your shoulder and illuminating the wreck fully.
We can't move a wreck— or the sun — so we need to know which of the wreck's features will be illuminated at any given time of day. Experienced photographers use that knowledge to dive a wreck at certain times for certain angles.
Beginner Tips
Dive More than Once: Wrecks don't move, but the sun does. On most wrecks, this means that the perfect light for a great bow shot will not happen on the same dive as the perfect light for the stern. To get the best photos of both, you should dive the wreck at different times of the day.
Intermediate Tips
Monochrome Mavels: Black-and-white photography suits wrecks; it's also a great way to save a shot that is "too blue." Convert your image to black-and-white, and increase the contrast until the wreck pops. The best black-and-white shots should include strong shapes, bright areas and deep shadows.
Advanced Tips
It's What's on the Inside: On many wrecks, the best stories are inside. It is dark in there, so invariably you'll need to use strobes. Lift them up above the housing into a rabbit-ears position, and aim them down at a 45-degree angle to create a pool of illumination on the subject in the blackness.

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN, or TGN), also known as prosopalgia,[1] or Fothergill's disease[2] is a neuropathic disorder characterized by episodes of intense pain in the face, originating from the trigeminal nerve. The clinical association between TN and hemifacial spasm is the so-called tic douloureux.[3] It has been described as among the most painful conditions known to humankind.[4] It is estimated that 1 in 15,000 or 20,000 people suffer from TN, although the actual figure may be significantly higher due to frequent misdiagnosis. In a majority of cases, TN symptoms begin appearing more frequently over the age of 50, although there have been cases with patients being as young as three years of age. It is more common in females than males.[5] Trigeminal neuralgia was first described by physician John Fothergill and treated surgically by John Murray Carnochan both of whom were graduates of the University of Edinburgh Medical School.
The trigeminal nerve is a paired cranial nerve that has three major branches: the ophthalmic nerve (V1), the maxillary nerve (V2), and the mandibular nerve (V3). One, two, or all three branches of the nerve may be affected. 10-12% of cases are bilateral (occurring on both the left and right sides of the face). Trigeminal neuralgia most commonly involves the middle branch (the maxillary nerve or V2) and lower branch (mandibular nerve or V3) of the trigeminal nerve,[6] but the pain may be felt in the ear, eye, lips, nose, scalp, forehead, cheeks, teeth, or jaw and side of the face.
TN is not easily controlled but can be managed with a variety of treatment options.[7]
Signs and symptoms[edit]
This disorder is characterized by episodes of intense facial pain that last from a few seconds to several minutes or hours. The episodes of intense pain may occur paroxysmally. To describe the pain sensation, patients may describe a trigger area on the face so sensitive that touching or even air currents can trigger an episode; however, in many patients the pain is generated spontaneously without any apparent stimulation. It affects lifestyle as it can be triggered by common activities such as eating, talking, shaving and brushing teeth. Wind, high pitched sounds, loud noises such as concerts or crowds, chewing, and talking can aggravate the condition in many patients. The attacks are said by those affected to feel like stabbing electric shocks, burning, pressing, crushing, exploding or shooting pain that becomes intractable.
Individual attacks usually affect one side of the face at a time, lasting from several seconds to a few minutes and repeat up to hundreds of times throughout the day. The pain also tends to occur in cycles with remissions lasting months or even years. 10-12% of cases are bilateral, or occurring on both sides. This normally indicates problems with both trigeminal nerves since one serves strictly the left side of the face and the other serves the right side. Pain attacks are known to worsen in frequency or severity over time, in some patients. Many patients develop the pain in one branch, then over years the pain will travel through the other nerve branches. Some patients also experience pain in the index finger.[8]
It may slowly spread to involve more extensive portions of the trigeminal nerve. The spread may even affect all divisions of the nerve, and sometimes simultaneously. Cases with bilateral involvement have not indicated simultaneous activity. The following suggest a systemic development: rapid spreading, bilateral involvement, or simultaneous participation with other major nerve trunks. Examples of systemic involvement include multiple sclerosis or expanding cranial tumor. Examples of simultaneous involvement include tic convulsive (of the fifth and seventh cranial nerves) and occurrence of symptoms in the fifth and ninth cranial nerve areas.[9]
Outwardly visible signs of TN can sometimes be seen in males who may deliberately miss an area of their face when shaving, in order to avoid triggering an episode. Successive recurrences are incapacitating and the dread of provoking an attack may make sufferers unable to engage in normal daily activities.
There is also a variant of TN called atypical trigeminal neuralgia (also referred to as "trigeminal neuralgia, type 2"),[10] based on a recent classification of facial pain.[11] In some cases of atypical TN the sufferer experiences a severe, relentless underlying pain similar to a migraine in addition to the stabbing shock-like pains. In other cases, the pain is stabbing and intense but may feel like burning or prickling, rather than a shock. Sometimes the pain is a combination of shock-like sensations, migraine-like pain, and burning or prickling pain. It can also manifest as an unrelenting, boring, piercing pain.
The trigeminal nerve is a mixed cranial nerve responsible for sensory data such as tactition (pressure), thermoception (temperature), and nociception (pain) originating from the face above the jawline; it is also responsible for the motor function of the muscles of mastication, the muscles involved in chewing but not facial expression.
Several theories exist to explain the possible causes of this pain syndrome. It was once believed that the nerve was compressed in the opening from the inside to the outside of the skull; but newer leading research indicates that it is an enlarged blood vessel - possibly the superior cerebellar artery - compressing or throbbing against the microvasculature of the trigeminal nerve near its connection with the pons. Such a compression can injure the nerve's protective myelin sheath and cause erratic and hyperactive functioning of the nerve. This can lead to pain attacks at the slightest stimulation of any area served by the nerve as well as hinder the nerve's ability to shut off the pain signals after the stimulation ends. This type of injury may rarely be caused by an aneurysm (an outpouching of a blood vessel); by an AVM (arteriovenous malformation);[12] by a tumor; by an arachnoid cyst in the cerebellopontine angle;[13] or by a traumatic event such as a car accident.
Short-term peripheral compression is often painless, with pain attacks lasting no more than a few seconds.[4] Persistent compression results in local demyelination with no loss of axon potential continuity. Chronic nerve entrapment results in demyelination primarily, with progressive axonal degeneration subsequently.[4] It is, "therefore widely accepted that trigeminal neuralgia is associated with demyelination of axons in the Gasserian ganglion, the dorsal root, or both."[14] It has been suggested that this compression may be related to an aberrant branch of the superior cerebellar artery that lies on the trigeminal nerve.[14] Further causes, besides an aneurysm, multiple sclerosis or cerebellopontine angle tumor, include: a posterior fossa tumor, any other expanding lesion or even brainstem diseases from strokes.[14]
Trigeminal Neuralgia is found in 3-4% of people with Multiple Sclerosis, according to data from seven studies.[15] Only two to four percent of patients with TN,[citation needed] usually younger,[citation needed] have evidence of multiple sclerosis, which may damage either the trigeminal nerve or other related parts of the brain. It has been theorized that this is due to damage to the spinal trigeminal complex.[16] Trigeminal pain has a similar presentation in patients with and without MS.[17]
Postherpetic neuralgia, which occurs after shingles, may cause similar symptoms if the trigeminal nerve is damaged.
When there is no [apparent] structural cause, the syndrome is called idiopathic.
As with many conditions without clear physical or laboratory diagnosis, TN is sometimes misdiagnosed. A TN sufferer will sometimes seek the help of numerous clinicians before a firm diagnosis is made.
There is evidence that points towards the need to quickly treat and diagnose TN. It is thought that the longer a patient suffers from TN, the harder it may be to reverse the neural pathways associated with the pain.
The differential diagnosis includes temporomandibular disorder.[18] Since triggering may be caused by movements of the tongue or facial muscles, TN must be differentiated from masticatory pain that has the clinical characteristics of deep somatic rather than neuropathic pain. Masticatory pain will not be arrested by a conventional mandibular local anesthetic block.[9]
Dentists who suspect TN should proceed in the most conservative manner possible and should ensure that all tooth structures are "truly" compromised before performing extractions or other procedures.[medical citation needed]
- The anticonvulsant carbamazepine is the first line treatment; second line medications include baclofen, lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine, phenytoin, gabapentin, pregabalin, and sodium valproate. Uncontrolled trials have suggested that clonazepam and lidocaine may be effective.[19]
- Low doses of some antidepressants such as amitriptyline are thought to be effective in treating neuropathic pain, but a tremendous amount of controversy exists on this topic,[citation needed] and their use is often limited to treating the depression that is associated with chronic pain, rather than the actual sensation of pain from the trigeminal nerve.[citation needed] Antidepressants are also used to counteract a medication side effect.
- Duloxetine can also be used in some cases of neuropathic pain, and as it is also an antidepressant can be particularly helpful where neuropathic pain and depression are combined.[20]
- Opiates such as morphine and oxycodone can be prescribed, and there is evidence of their effectiveness on neuropathic pain, especially if combined with gabapentin.[21][22]
- Gallium maltolate in a cream or ointment base has been reported to relieve refractory postherpetic trigeminal neuralgia.[23]
The evidence for surgical therapy is poor[24] and it is thus only recommended if medical treatment is not effective.[25] While there may be pain relief there is also frequently numbness post procedure.[24] Microvascular decompression appears to result in the longest pain relief.[24] Percutaneous radiofrequency thermorhizotomy may also be effective[26] as may gamma knife radiosurgery, however the effectiveness decreases with time.[27]
Three other procedures use needles or catheters that enter through the face into the opening where the nerve first splits into its three divisions. Some excellent success rates using a cost-effective percutaneous surgical procedure known as balloon compression have been reported.[28] This technique has been helpful in treating the elderly for whom surgery may not be an option due to coexisting health conditions. Balloon compression is also the best choice for patients who have ophthalmic nerve pain or have experienced recurrent pain after microvascular decompression.
Glycerol injections involve injecting an alcohol-like substance into the cavern that bathes the nerve near its junction. This liquid is corrosive to the nerve fibers and can mildly injure the nerve enough to hinder the errant pain signals. In a radiofrequency rhizotomy, the surgeon uses an electrode to heat the selected division or divisions of the nerve. Done well, this procedure can target the exact regions of the errant pain triggers and disable them with minimal numbness.
History, society and culture[edit]
TN has been called "suicide disease" in the past.[31][32] Some example cases of TN include:
- Entrepreneur and author Melissa Seymour was diagnosed with TN in 2009 and underwent microvascular decompression surgery in a well documented case covered by magazines and newspapers which helped to raise public awareness of the illness in Australia. Seymour was subsequently made a Patron of the Trigeminal Neuralgia Association of Australia.[33]
- American writer Truman Capote [34]
- In August 2011, Bollywood Star Salman Khan admitted he suffers from trigeminal neuralgia. In an interview, he said that he has been quietly suffering it for the past seven years, but now the pain has become unbearable. It has even affected his voice, making it much harsher.

Vai reveals last guitar dream
Steve Vai has played two of the three dream guitars on his bucket list – and still hopes to play the third.
And the virtuoso, who started his musical career with Frank Zappa, credits the great man with not only giving him a valuable education, but also securing his financial future.
Vai, who recently told how he dreamed his entire career as a boy, tells Noisecreep: "Frank was very independent and I was very young. I was with him for six years – you can imagine how impressionable you are at that age. I was just a sponge. Every day I exercise skills I learned from Frank.
"One of the first things I asked was what advice he'd give a young musician. I was expecting some lofty, philosophical answer – but Frank was always right to the point.
"He said: 'Keep your publishing.' I was like, 'What's publishing?'
"He gave me the phone number of an attorney and said, 'Go see this guy.' I bought an hour of this guy's time, and it's the best money I've ever spent. He set up a publishing company for me and I have made a lot of income that many artists see go down the drain.
"All thanks to Frank: he knew the impact of his words and the impact it could have if you had the ears to really hear it."
Vai's workhorse guitar is an Ibanez, which he helped design – another move he credits to Zappa, who inspired him not to stick with Gibson or Fender instruments if he wasn't happy with them.
But asked if there are any historic axes he'd like to play, he says: "There are three, and I've gotten to play to of them.
"Once was Hendrix's Woodstock guitar. When I was on the Hendrix Experience Tour we called to see if they'd send it out for a show. They did, and I got to play it. One layer of me was, 'Okay, it's a Strat.' The other layer was, 'Holy shit – this is the Strat Hendrix played at Woodstock!'
"The one I was absolutely fascinated by was Brian May's. He had a guitar he built when he was a kid. When I first moved to Los Angeles working for Frank, I met Brian at the Rainbow and he invited me to a Queen rehearsal. He was just so kind – and he let me play that guitar. A real iconic moment for me. But it sounded like me playing, not Brian."
The last guitar on his list, Vai says, is: "Jimmy Page's double-neck. That hasn't happened yet – but I'll keep my fingers crossed."
Vai recently released concept album The Story of Light, a mainly instrumental work featuring the voices of guest vocalist including Aimee Mann and The Voice finalist Beverly McClellan.

possible fix to unbreak biology/L-Breeder L-Breeder is currently marked unfetchable: http://people.freebsd.org/~fenner/portsurvey/biology.html#L-Breeder So I tried to investigate the problem and I'm now submitting my homework so it doesn't get lost. This is what I noticed: i) L-Breeder upstream sources have "stagnated for some time, but now a new simplified version is available" (sic, from the web site) So, the fetch issue is resolved. And the pkg-descr is also updated to reflect the new home page. However: ii) L-Breeder is now called LBreeder. I have changed PORTNAME to reflect this, although I don't know if this is the right thing to do. Should the port be moved to biology/LBreeder? Or perhaps just leaving PORTNAME pointing to the old name and then work inside the Makefile to point the build/install to the correct name? iii) the sources have been reorganized so I have to update the port's Makefile to reflect this. The attached patch works for me under FreeBSD-4.11 (although it's possible that I may have missed a dependency if I already have a required library installed in my box. Sorry, I don't have a tinderbox-like setup to test builds) iv) the program does not have a version number, nor did I find one by looking inside the sources. To avoid changing too much the port I just left PORTVERSION at 1.0 and bumped PORTREVISION to 6 Finally, do note that I am not a user of LBreeder, so I cannot test the program myself. I just noticed that by calling the executable I get a black X screen, that I can quit by pressing 'q' as documented in Readme.txt, but I can't tell myself if this is the expected behaviour. Nor do I know how to use the example files. Caveat emptor. PR: ports/90073 Submitted by: Fernan Aguero <firstname.lastname@example.com> Approved by: maintainer timeout

Job Description
I need a Book Cover Create - Details are below:
Here is my 3rd concept of what I'm looking for.
Can you imagine a man holding the hand of the woman he loves as she is hanging from a cliff, a building, etc. He's holding her with one hand as he desperately holds a poll, tree branch, etc... to support both of their weight. I want to capture all of that emotion and energy in the two hands alone with an awesome background.
Title = Never Quit
Subtitle = 10 Tools Necessary for a Lifetime of Love in Marriage
Author = Courtney Alexander Harris, PhD
Dimensions = 4.25 x 7
I have also attached the 2 previous ideas.

Hang tight!
Recipe by Sherrie
"My mother gave me this one as an easy way to dump dinner in a pot and be done with it. It is a simple meal. Serve with crackers or cornbread."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 green bell peppers, chopped
5 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans with liquid
1 (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, with liquid
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
Very good! I used about 1 1/2 lbs of ground beef and I only used three cans of kidney beans (it just seemed like a lot of beans)with one green pepper. Also, I added garlic powder, salt and pepper and used A LOT more chili powder than the recipe called for. I used about four tablespoons. It was a little watery so I added a small can of tomato paste! I thought it was a great recipe overall! I will make this agian without a doubt! Thank you!
My chili came out great but that was with some changes to this recipe...I only put in 3 cans of beans...i used a can of diced tomatoes and a small can of tomatoe paste instead of the suggested can of tomotoes. I used 3 times the chili powder and also added two hot peppers used only one green pepper and threw in some hot sauce and salt....otherwise it would have been to runny and too beany and too bland...4 hours was perfect cooking time in the slow cooker.
65 Ratings
I really wish I would have read the other reviews prior to making this. The recipe 'as is' does not make a very good chili. It is very runny, not enough chili powder and has WAY too many beans in it. I think the changes suggested by the other reviewers would help a lot.
this is not relly a thick chili,its more watery like soup,very watery,at least it was when i made it.it was still good but not what i though it was going to be
Used 1 40oz can of kidney beans instead, cut the pepper and the onion, added 2 cans tomato paste, salted, peppered, used garlic powder to taste and 3tbs chili powder. Also used 2lbs ground beef instead!
My family loved this one! I made 12 servings but only used half of the cans instructed (I don't like a lot of beans). I also added a bay leaf, Italian seasoning and a lot of garlic (6 cloves for 12 servings). I also put some tomato paste - I have it in a tube so I just squeezed it in) to try and thicken it up a little. What an improvement to an already wonderful recipe!
Try using tomato paste in place of some of the canned tomatoes for a thicker consistency. You may want to add a bit of suger, however, to sweeten it up.
Bravo! I really loved this. I used a small can of Manwich sauce inplace of one of the cans of tomato sauce. It along withe spices gave the dish some extra kick!

The HW99s is one of the best rifles I own. Everything about it meets standards and for the price is a really good air rifle. I have a 177. and I can easily hit a small coin at 25-30 yards, it's incredibly accurate. The trigger system is also really good and being a Weihrauch makes it durable and reliable. I deffinatly recommend this gun to anyone starting to shoot air rifles as a hobby. Ticks all the boxes for me. :) (read more)

Had mine since June - birthday pressie from the wife and purchased after sound advice from Country Sporting Guns near Boston. It's .22 calibre and having zeroed it in on both iron sights and scope, I can regularly put eight of of ten pellets through the bull on a 20yard sport target with the other two shots in the 9 ring. Next aim (no pun intended) is to put all 10 through the bull. A cracking springer and damned good value for money. Heartily recommended. (read more)

After a lot of consideration I bought a 99S a couple of weeks ago.
I was unsure whether to go for the the 99 or the 95. The very helpful shop owner let me try both and went for the 99S carbine. I went for 99S because even though power wise it is the same as the 95 it was lighter and so would be better for long period use.
A positive point was it came with open irons which I like to use some times, the 95 didn't. It will take a scope as well so you get the best of both worlds.

Bought a HW99S from the good folk at AirShooting, after a lot of deliberation. I have recently been granted permission to shoot over a friends land, and my old QB78 wasn't quite up to it. Initially looking for a BSA Lightning, but was thankfully advised out of it. Having held the two guns next to each other, there is nothing in it, the BSA rattled and felt loose and cheap, the Weihrauch just felt like quality. Zeroed it at the shop, and on my first outing took three bunnies with three shots,... (read more)

Just bought one of these and am struggling to get the scope mounted properly because of the large degree of barrel droop. I've tried shimming the rear mount, but the amount of packing needed is excessive, so now I'm looking at getting an adjustable mount e.g. BSA Scopemaster 1 Piece Double Screw Fully adjustable - but these are not cheap at around £35 + p&p.

I have a 3.9x50 scope fitted, which I think is a must have item. The rifle is light weight, although has a very solid well made feel and very comfortable even for me at 6ft 2ins and with long arms.

This gun is amazing! Have owned both pre-charged and springers before, and this has to be my favourite. It's deadly accurate, although it's a little twangy (i'm sure this will lessen as time progresses, as have owned the gun for 2 days now). At the price i paid of £240 with no scope, it wasn't a cheap gun, but compared to cometas and gamos and other cheaper guns, the difference is phenominal! I LOVE THIS GUN :D (read more)

Bought my Weihrauch HW 99s brand new for £190. I've had it for less than 12 months now and it perfoms as well as when I bought, the spring is a bit twangy but from a distance its hardly noticable.
I find that this gun is not very pellet fussy though all the pellets I've used are expensive ones.
There is a bit of recoil on it but you get that from all springers.

The Weihrauch HW 99s is beautifully balanced and gave a tighter target group than another very well respected product on first acquaintance.

The Weihrauch HW 99s is an awesome gun. Close range, long range, targets, hunting you name it and this gun does it better than any of my other air rifles. I have shot many birds and the only problem with this gun for hunting is that the spring makes a large 'crack' sound when you fire and that usually scares a few birds away. The recoil can also cause your aim to vary if you dont support the gun (ie. letting it rest on a table when shooting with no hand below the forestock) as it has low... (read more)

The Weihrauch HW 99s has good, solid German workmanship. Trigger has remained consistent and dependable for 10 years.
Very accurate when not held too tightly.
I keep meaning to put it across a chronograph, but am pretty sure that even after all the use it has had, it is still pushing out the .177 pellets at close to the legal 12 ft/lb limit.

Even so I was very impressed with it, so I started looking at Weihrauchs and found that the 99 was the lightest weight (3.2Kgs) break barrel with full power and open sights.

Lets start with the looks. This gun looks great, you can tell that it has been well made just from looking at it. The wood is sooooo smooth and the barrel looks very sturdy. The iron sights are no exception, they look the part and fit in well with the rest of the gun. When the gun is broken, looking down the barrel at the rifling is very...

You said you're only 15? I'm 16, and I'm just wondering ... do you find it a problem to find somewhere "safe" to shoot? And as well as this, where do you shoot? I just can't be bothered to join a club, so I go shooting at a little secluded area that I know. It's not a problem, apart from the dog walker that comes passed every five minutes or so. And to be honest, I don't think my dad's gun paranoia is true to real life. Generally, I've found that people don't care when they see me carrying my break-barrel, because they know that it's an air rifle, and they know that it's not a real one. Anywho, it'd be good if you could get back to me on these questions.

yer it can be a problem. I am fortunate enough to have a stable yard that belongs to my grandad and my other grandparents have a large garden and fields so i can usually find somewhere. I have also shot with a friend in his garden :)

You should consider joining a rifle club/range or something, it can be quite fun! :)

Just bought a secondhand Weihrauch HW99 complete with a Simmons 3-9x40 scope for £100. (Bargain I thought)
The rifle is in A1 condition and the scope looks unused. Having been out of airgunning for many years maybe some other 99 users could clear a couple of things up. Firstly, I read everywhere that this is a 'full power rifle' (12f/lbs energy)

I have had the 99 chrono'd and it was pushing out 16 grain lazadomes out at 11.3 ft/lbs - therefore it is pretty much full power.

I have also realised the 'twang' or vibration when firing is no worse than other springers - its just the nature of the beast.
Written on: 29/06/2007
Twang... take the spring out and check it for damage. A broken spring can cause excess twang and can effect accuracy.. also you could take it to a gunsmith and have it tuned. A good tune will make it quieter and give better consistency.
Written on: 06/11/2006
The "twang" always seems noisy to the shooter, as we have our ears right next to the action. Get someone to fire the Weihrauch HW99 and stand 10 yards behind, and I think you'll find it really isn't that bad!

Owned the Weihrauch HW 99s rifle for two weeks and took it back to the Shop and replaced it with are HW95K.
The screws on the stock had to be locked in place with Loctite as they kept falling out.
The first Hundred pellets were within one and a half inch groups at 30 yards then the accuracy went badly wrong and couldn't get them on the target.
One hundred and fifty pellets later the piston could be heard scrapping the cylinder just before it locked solid and died.

I can only imagine you were unlucky enough to get a faulty one. Weihrauch are renowned for build quality and performance. I own a HW 77K it must have had over 5000 pellets through it over the years and has never let me down.

However the 99s is one of there more budgeted rifles, i am very keen to try one out for my self.

Weihrauch HW 99s - I was originally going to get a BSA Lightning having read the reviews, but when I got to the gunshop and had a look and a chat with the friendly expert, I was persuaded to buy a Weihrauch HW99S. One reason is that you could remove the telescopic sight and use the existing front sight. My gun was fitted with a Hawke 4 x 40 scope which is more than adequate. Also it looked more like the air rifles I was used to, more than 30 years ago.
My left arm is still sore from cocking...

I received the Weihrauch HW 99s in 0.177 as a Christmas present from my wife.
Build quality is excellent. The rifle feels very solid and well put together. The stock is a well finished quality piece of beech, blueing is excellent. I have seen in some reviews that these are hard to cock. This is true but I see this a positive point of a well constructed rifle with no play in the break of the rifle, ensuring ongoing accuracy. Relatively lightweight and easy to handle. It has a good trigger...

My card is not OC'd at all. I will try down-grading and see if I can run BF3 and DE:HR at stock voltage--however the card behaves the exact same way under stock voltage *every time* (green artifacts and crashing) in BF3 (any settings) and DE:HR (DX11 only).I may head over to EVGA's forums and let them know as they may need to come out with a BIOS update for the GTX 580.--If we lose this freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment, those who had the most to lose, did the least to prevent its happening.
So Kris did reverting the driver help?
i had to do the same thing with my 460, that driver shits all over alot of cards for some reason.
I wonder I mean its not like EVGA changes the GPU.and I had the problems even if I went back to stock (or as shipped) setting and my GPU fan is set as fast as it can be (so heat shouldn't be an issue)to add to heat not being an issue, the ambiant room temp was 64f, the case has positive pressure (from 3x 120's on the front blowing in) and I've looked and no dust.
I know it's not heat because I can load the GPU under Furmark without a problem and have the usage and temps skyrocket past what any game uses.
Ya so I think nvidia is at fault not the card makers.I wonder if they somehow enabled a feature that the GPU has locked out?
it was something funky with the driver in general, it would report 3d clock-rates, but would be running 2d, and not switching properly back and forth, mine would go to 2d clock rates and get stuck there no matter what i was doing.
I think tonight I'll upgrade from 280 to 296 and see if WoW5 is happier.
WOW5 DX11 is happier now with the firmware update from »www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?&m=1···&mpage=1
Well my WOW5 DX11 issue is gone but on going to diver 296 the WEI crash is there.tonight I'll revert the driver to the one just before 296 and see how it does.
Did you try the 306 drivers (beta)?I'm not sure what a diver 296 WEI crash is...
296 the driver version from nvidia.I'm weary to try a beta driver.The 296 driver crashed on me just like the 301 did, when running the windows experience index.But other than WEI the firmware update fixed actuall use crashes. (ie I can enable WOW's DX11 and it didn't crash even after hours, so its good)

In New York, the former NYPD detective Ben Carson is hired to work as night watch of the remains of the Mayflower Department Store that was partially destroyed by fire many years ago. Ben became alcoholic and was retired from the police force after killing a man in a shooting. His marriage was also destroyed and now he is living in the apartment of his younger sister Angie. However he has not been drinking for three months and sees the employment as a chance to rebuild his life. When he goes to the rounds in his first night, he finds that the mirrors are impeccably clean and his colleague explains that the former night watch was obsessed by the mirrors. After a couple of nights, Ben sees weird images in the mirrors, but due to the lack of credibility of his past, his ex-wife Amy believes he has hallucinations as a side effect of his medication.

Pain Prevention for Pump Wearers
By Rachel Bertsche
Oprah.com | From the December 2007 issue of
O, The Oprah Magazine
A subtle stretch you can do anytime you're standing will help keep your calves limber and feet pain-free. "Most women who wear high heels will have tightening of the two calf muscles that join the Achilles tendon in the back of the heel," says Jaleh Hoorfar, DPM, a podiatric surgeon at New York–Presbyterian Hospital. That tendon can actually shorten over time, leading to heel pain and difficulty wearing flats. Hoorfar suggests this simple exercise to stretch your Achilles, increase circulation, and improve posture. While standing, shift your weight to your left foot and bend your right knee slightly. Lean back on your straight left leg while simultaneously digging your heel into the ground and pulling your left toes toward your shin. Hold for a few seconds, then return to a normal standing position. Do ten repetitions and then switch legs. Hoorfar recommends continuing the stretch, which will also help prevent varicose veins, for as long as you're standing. And you can do the stretch barefoot, in gym shoes, even in pumps.

If you're among those dreaming of a white Christmas, you should consider going "green" instead. Greennest.com has all kinds of ideas that put our planet at the top of everyone's gift list this year.
Lisa Beres is co-founder of the site, which is dedicated to greener living.
"Being green really means focusing on three things: resource conservation, energy efficiency and the health of your home," she said, "so you want to factor in all of those things to really make sure you're creating a green experience for yourself."
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, Americans produce 25 percent more waste during the holiday season than at any other time of year. If that number doesn't astonish you, think about all the extra waste created by greeting cards, wrapping paper, bows, home decorations, ornaments, boxes, shipping materials — even the disposable dishware we use for parties. So as you dutifully transform your home for this holiday season, consider some of these earth-friendly alternatives.
Tree time
Competing schools of thought will have you wondering whether sparing the life of a real tree in favor of a fake is actually a "greener" move. Most fake trees teem with polyvinyl chloride, or PVC, which offgasses into your home, polluting your indoor air. The greenest advice is to go with a live tree that you can replant into the earth.
Instead of snail-mailing traditional holiday cards that eventually end up in recipients' trash, consider going electronic. With so many greeting-card sites available free of charge, you're not only going to save paper and money, but you can also upload pictures, video and music.
Light it up
Nothing provides instant ambience like a room full of fragrant candles, but synthetic scents can be big air polluters. Pass on the paraffin and look instead for soy- or vegetable-based candles. And there's no need to sacrifice a great smell: Those made with essential oils, like peppermint, smell terrific and are far better for your sniffer than those made from chemicals.
It's a wrap
It'll be pretty tough to justify old-school wrapping and bows with all the recycled and natural alternatives available today. A quick Google search for "recycled wrapping paper" turns up an abundance of results. And decorating gifts is even easier with some out-of-the-box thinking. Pine cones, flowers and cinnamon sticks make beautiful accents with zero environmental impact.

I moved to Tennessee three months ago. I have been informed by someone that my Quaker is illegal here. I looked it up and sure enough he is. I guess if someone would turn me in for having him he would be taken and...well, you know.
Please I need a home for him!!! He is 4 years old and his name is Zeff, I call him Zeffy. I have had him for 6 months. His previous owner had named him Zefroid and I hated it, so I call him Zeffy. He is very sweet and smart. He is a blue Quaker. His previous owner was very nice and he has been well cared for. He does not know cruelty or neglect at all. He will step up for you. He is a little bitey until he is out of his cage, then he is very sweet. He sits on my shoulder and on the back of my chair. I took him in for a complete examination when I was still in Nebraska. He is very healthy and strong. I hate this, but I have no choice. People are funny and I can't take the chance that someone will report that I have him. By then it is too late and someone will take him. I cannot let that happen. To give him up is hard, but I want him to have a life and a good loving home. Some of the nearby states are legal for him, I know Alabama is.
PLEASE if you can help Zeffy, please contact me. firstname.lastname@example.com or call me 803-818-0717
With him will come his nice big cage, his playground and extra perch that he likes to sit on. I want no money, just a good home, someone who will love him like I do and take care of him.
Hope someone will respond
If you have any questions, please post or contact me
Thanks, Robin
Oh, I live in Columbia Tennessee
Not sure where to post...Need desperate help for my Quaker!!!!

Sorry to hear you have to give him up! You might want to try contacting some bird clubs and people in Alabama (Athens? Hunstville?) to try and find someone who can take him, then drive him on down! In this way, you know he'll be getting a good home and you wont have to worry about someone taking him!

Hi I'm still alive
"You will be the very goddess of humility, I am sure. But can you pay the price?"
"What price?"
"The price is you. The price is all you have and all you ever hope to have. We took your eyes and gave them back. Next we will take your ears, and you will walk in silence. You will give us your legs and crawl. You will be no one's daughter, no one's wife, no one's mother. Your name will be a lie, and the very face you wear will not be your own."

2001-January-19 | "Communications" Under 18 U.S.C. § 207 | A former high-ranking government official proposed establishing a consulting firm–as a sole proprietorship, a partnership, or a corporation–in which he would be one of a very few employees, or perhaps even the sole employee. If, as hypothesized, the consulting firm prepares a report on behalf of certain clients, which is submitted directly to his former agency by the consulting firm or, with the former official's knowledge, by his client with the report bearing the consulting firm's name, and it is expected by the former official that his identity as the author of the report may be commonly known throughout the industry and at his former agency, he would be making a communication prohibited by 18 U.S.C. § 207(c). |
2004-March-18 | "Protected Person" Status in Occupied Iraq Under the Fourth Geneva Convention | The Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War (IV) governs the United States occupation of Iraq. The following persons, if captured in occupied Iraq, are not "protected persons" within the meaning of article 4 of the Fourth Geneva Convention: U.S. nationals, nationals of a State not bound by the Convention, nationals of a co-belligerent State, and operatives of the al Qaeda terrorist organization who are not Iraqi nationals or permanent residents of Iraq. |
1998-January-28 | 18 U.S.C. § 203 and Contingent Interests in Expenses Recoverable in Litigation Against the United States | 18 U.S.C. § 203 does not prohibit a prospective government officer from maintaining upon his entry into government service a contingent interest in expenses recoverable in litigation involving the United States. |

2003-April-17 | Bond Proceeding of Undocumented Aliens Seeking to Enter the United States Illegally | In determining whether to release on bond undocumented migrants who arrive in the United States by sea seeking to evade inspection, it is appropriate to consider national security interests implicated by the encouragement of further unlawful mass migrations and the release of undocumented alien migrants into the United States without adequate screening. In bond proceedings involving aliens seeking to enter the United States illegally, where the government offers evidence from sources in the Executive Branch with relevant expertise establishing that significant national security interests are implicated, immigration judges and the Board of Immigration Appeals shall consider such interests. Considering national security grounds applicable to a category of aliens in denying an unadmitted alien's request for release on bond does not violate any due process right to an individualized determination in bond proceedings under section 236(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. |

Thanks for the feedback guys.
The voicemail is because the VMM.apk is not in there. I guess that will solve the problem. Not sure about the calander widget. I believe the Pro ROM has the D2 cal and the non Pro has the default android cal.
Swype was left out on purpose.
