Bremerton Raceway Sunday May 10th
So Sunday Tena, her mom and I went to Bremerton race way and enjoyed a long Day of racing. I Raced the 09 Focus, Tena Raced the 97 caravan and Her mom raced an 09 versa. We got to the track at 6:45 and there was already a long line. When we got in finally we discovered that there was hardly any decent pit stalls left so we had to park way out in the boonies. Half the time we couldn't even hear them announce our classed running. However everyone had a lot of fun. I won two rounds before losing and Tena won one round [clap] I have times and pics and a video as well. I would have a video of the focus but it was taken with the Non digital camcorder.
BTW where were all the other Foci ?? Mine got lonely. So here are the times 1st run (time trial) R/T-.251[sleep] 60'-2.427 330'-6.981 1/8- 10.735 1/8 MPH-65.66 1000'-13.943 ¼- 16.623 ¼ MPH-85.10 2nd Run (time trial) R/T-.221[sleep] 60'-2.425 330'-6.973 1/8-10.729 1/8 MPH-65.60 1000'-13.941 ¼- 16.621 ¼ MPH-85.05 3rd Run (1st round of eliminations)[race] Dial in set at 16.59 R/T- .241[sleep] 60'-2.475 330'-7.060 1/8-10.823 1/8 MPH-65.43 1000'-14.042 ¼-16.733 (not sure what happened here) ¼ MPH-84.00 I won this race because my opponet red lit(she would have broke out as well) 4th run (second round of eliminations)[race] Changed my dial in to 16.60 R/T-.004 (my best light ever) 60'-2.426 330'-6.984 1/8-10.726 1/8 MPH-65.85 1000'-13.92 ¼-16.585 (quickest run of the day) ¼ MPH-84.82 This was a very good race. If you'll notice I broke out, but so did my opponnet. Margin of victory? How about .016. 5th and final run of the day[bigcry] Changed my dial in to 16.50 (wish I would have gone with 16.55) R/T-.070 60'-2.419 330'-6.962 1/8-10.705 1/8 MPH-65.82 1000'-13.904 ¼-16.597 ¼ MPH-82.43 This was shaping up to be a very quick run (compare the last two) However my opponet had caught me so I got out of the gas hoping he would do the same and lose. But it back fired on me. Any one guess where I let off?? Oh well you Live and you learn. Ok here are some pictures http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...100_1967-1.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...p/100_1971.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...100_1989-1.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...100_1996-1.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...100_2004-1.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...p/100_1972.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...p/100_1987.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...p/100_1988.jpg http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/w...p/100_1989.jpg Ok this video is great, it is a video of my wife and her mom doing a little grudge match.

Wow man. A minivan at the drag strip. Never thought i would see it. But hey if its fun its fun. Nice R/T on the fourth run, thats really good timing.
yeah the van was fun. the bad part about it was she was only 4 tenths slower than the focus. That reaction time though just amazed me Im not sure really how I pulled that off
Oh I forgot to mention It was a mothers day racing bracket that she entered the van in, so it only seemed fitting that she drive the van right?
Looks like ya'll had fun....but moved ya to the Drag race thread

Earlier, we looked at the five best St. Louis Cardinals by rWAR from 1959 through 1988. This the follow-up to that post, which covers the time period from 1989 through 2011. This list is inspired by David Schoenfield's post on the ESPN Sweet Spot blog which looked at the five best position players by WAR. Unlike Schoenfield, I have included pitchers and ranked the five best Cardinals by rWAR.
1989-1993: Ozzie Smith, SS (20.6); Bob Tewksbury, SP (11.7); Milt Thompson, OF (9.0); Ray Lankford, OF (8.3); Bernard Gilkey, OF (7.6)
In these, his age 34-38 seasons, Ozzie continued to accrue numbers despite entering the normal decline phase for baseball players generally and middle infielders in particular. 1989 was likely Ozzie's second-best season. His defense was otherworldly according to Total Zone. He posted a 3.1 dWAR (!), which was almost half his value. With a batting line of .273/.335/.361/.696 (97 OPS+), Ozzie accrued 6.3 rWAR that year.
That Milt Thompson is third on this cumulative rWAR list tells us all we need know to about these years in Cardinals history. Rather than focus on Thompson, though, I wanted to mention the emergence of Ray Lankford. Over this time period, Lankford posted a line of .265/.346/.417/.763 (113 OPS+) and totaled 39 homers. In 1991, No. 16/12 led the league in triples and, in 1992, Lankford had the dubious distinction of leading the league in times caught stealing (24) and strikeouts (147). It won't be until the next five-year segment that Lankford emerges as the Lankford we (especially DanUp) remember fondly.
Tewksbury started 118 games over this timespan, totaled 813 IP, and posted a 3.13 ERA which was good for a 118 ERA+. All of this with opposing batters hitting for a .273 average against him. You, like me, are likely wondering how he managed this feat. It's because he barely walked anyone. Well, in 1989, he did (3.00 BB/9), but after that he was exemplary, posting BB/9's of 0.93 in 1990, 1.79 in 1991, and 0.93 in 1992. That's how he held opposing batters to a mere .297 OBP despite their .273 BA.
1994-1998: Ray Lankford, OF (23.6); Brian Jordan, OF (19.6); Mark McGwire, 1B (9.4); Matt Morris, P (7.2); Todd Stottlemyre, SP (6.5)
Lankford's age 27 through 31 seasons were everything you'd expect, a joyous mix of homers, walks, stolen bases, and strikeouts. Lankford posted a slash line of .282/.378/.523/.900 (135 OPS+), hit 127 homers, drew 381 walks, and struck out 632 over these five seasons. Overshadowed by The Great Home Run Race of 1998, Lankford had his best season in 1998. Lankford hit .293 with a .391 OBP and slugged .540. His .932 OPS was good for a 143 OPS+. Throw in roughly average defense and his 5.9 rWAR was a career best.
The Cardinals acquired Mark McGwire in 1997. In 1998, he rewarded them for having done so with one of the greatest seasons in baseball history. McGwire hit for a .299 average and led the league in OBP (.470), SLG (.752), OPS (1.222), OPS+ (216), walks (162), and, of course, home runs (70). That Sammy Sosa won the National League MVP award is a travesty. McGwire's 1998 was worth 7.2 rWAR. McGwire's production was so ridiculous and the Cardinals that preceded and surrounded him (not named Lankford or Jordan) so lackluster that he is ranked third on this cumulative rWAR list for the five season from 1994 through 1998 despite his only having played in St. Louis for one full season and a couple of months. Does anyone know when the Cardinals will install his statue outside of Busch?
1999-2003: Jim Edmonds, OF (27.7); Albert Pujols, IF/OF (23.6); J.D. Drew, OF (18.5); Edgar Renteria, SS (15.5); Mark McGwire, 1B (10.4)
Jim Edmonds did not play for the Cardinals in 1999. Over the four seasons from 2000 through 2003, he put together four of the six best seasons of his career (with the other top seasons coming in 2004 and 2005). Edmonds burst onto the St. Louis scene in 2000 with a 6.8-rWAR season and just kept hitting and fielding. Here are his OPS's over these five seasons: .994 (146 OPS+) in 2000, .974 (149 OPS+) in 2001, .981 (158 OPS+) in 2002, 1.002 (160 OPS+) in 2003. Here are his rWAR totals for the same years: 6.8, 6.4, 7.2 and 7.3. He also won four Gold Gloves that he was mostly deserving of with dWAR totals of 0.1, 0.5, 0.9, and 1.8.
Pujols places second on this list on the strength of three seasons. By now, we all know how ridiculous Pujols's career has been. Here are his OPS's from his first three seasons: 1.013 (157 OPS+), .955 (151 OPS+), and 1.106 (187 OPS+). Here are his rWAR totals: 6.9, 5.8, and 10.9. He won Rookie of the Year honors in 2001, a Silver Slugger, and placed fourth in the MVP voting. Pujols won the Silver Slugger for third base but could have won it for any number of positions as he played the outfield in 78 games for 611.2 innings, third base in 55 games for 431.2 innings, first base in 42 games for 287 innings. In 2002, Pujols's primary positions was left field where he played in 117 games for 870.2 innings but he also played third base for 293 innings in 41 games, first base for 144 innings in 21 games, and shortstop for two innings.
2004-2008: Albert Pujols, 1B (43.8); Jim Edmonds, CF (17.6); Scott Rolen, 3B (17.3); Chris Carpenter, SP (12.9); David Eckstein, SS (8.0)
To witness the MV3 season of 2004 was to live an entire summer constantly pinching oneself to see if it was a dream. It wasn't. Our trio of WARmongers really did lay waste to the National League in historic fashion. The numbers speak for that fireworks-filled season.

Chris Carpenter won the Cy Young in 2005. Carpenter threw 241.2 innings that season. While his IP total did not lead the league, his complete game total of seven did. Carpenter's 2.83 ERA was good for a 150 ERA+ and his peripherals were outstanding: 7.93 K/9, 1.90 BB/9, 2.90 FIP, and 2.93 xFIP. Carpenter pitched in only 2004, 2005, and 2006 for the Cardinals, missing the bulk of 2007 and 2008 due to injuries. Nonetheless, Carp still is the four-most valuable Cardinal during this five-year span.
2009-2011: Albert Pujols, 1B (21.7); Chris Carpenter, SP (12.8); Matt Holliday, OF (12.1); Adam Wainwright, SP (11.9); Yadier Molina, C (9.2)
Rather than five seasons, the final block of time is only three. Matt Holliday's rWAR total comes over about two and a half seasons wearing The Birds On The Bat. His line during that time is .314/.394/.543/.937. He has been elite but not Pujolsian. Despite declining production, Pujols is still a ridiculous talent. These last three seasons, his line is .313/.409/.598/1.007.
Adam Wainwright has only pitched in two of the three seasons that make up this cumulative rWAR exercise, yet his two-year 11.9 rWAR total is only 0.9 rWAR behind Carpenter's three-year total. This is a great indicator of just how excellent Wainwright was in 2009 and 2010. During those two seasons, he pitched 463.1 innings with a 2.53 ERA (157 ERA+) while posting a K/9 of 8.3 and BB/9 of only 2.4. His K/BB ratio was 3.48. The Cardinals' 2012 fortunes largely depend on the return of a healthy Wainwright, capable of dominating like he did prior to his elbow injury and corrective surgery.
It will be interesting to see whether Holliday, Carpenter, or Wainwright can surpass Pujols in rWAR by the end of 2013.

Griz volleyball team heads south for pair of matches
Oct. 3, 2012 The Montana volleyball team will be on the road for the first time in three weeks when its faces Southern Utah and Northern Arizona later this week. The Grizzlies will face the Thunderbirds Thursday at 7 p.m. in Cedar City, Utah, and the Lumberjacks Saturday at 8:30 p.m. (MT) in Flagstaff, Ariz.
Where they stand: Montana is 3-12 overall and tied for eighth in the Big Sky Conference standings at 1-5. ... Southern Utah is 7-10 overall and tied for sixth in the Big Sky at 3-3. ... Northern Arizona is tied with Northern Colorado for the Big Sky's best overall winning percentage at 12-3 and is tied for fourth in the league standings at 4-2. Around the Big Sky Conference: Only three weeks of league matches have been played, and there are seven still to go, but Portland State (10-7, 6-0 BSC), Northern Colorado (12-3, 5-1 BSC) and Idaho State (11-4, 5-1 BSC) have made early statements that they intend to pull away from the masses. Northern Arizona, Montana State (10-4, 4-2 BSC), North Dakota (7-9, 3-3 BSC) and Southern Utah are all .500 or better in league play and have at least a two-match lead on the bottom four teams in the chase for the still-way-off six-team conference tournament. Montana and coach Jerry Wagner are part of the group currently looking up the standings, but he's quick to point out that less than a third of the schedule has been played, and the Grizzlies have yet to face four of the league teams. "We're less than a third of the way through the season, so we're not going to be discouraged that we've had some setbacks," he said. "We're playing at a higher level lately and continue to put ourselves in position to win time and time again. Those are situations that we have created for ourselves, and right now that's more critical than anything. "We're not happy with our record, but we wouldn't be satisfied if we were 5-1, either, if it meant we weren't going to improve anymore." This week's non-Montana matches to watch: Northern Colorado plays at Portland State Thursday night. The Bears and Vikings have met in the last three Big Sky tournament championship matches. North Dakota, one of the other preseason league favorites, also plays at PSU Saturday night. So close, with nothing in the standings to show for it: Montana went 1-3 on its recent four-match home stand but was keep-you-up-at-night close to pulling off something much more successful. All three losses came in five sets, all after the Grizzlies held late fifth-set leads. Against Portland State on Sept. 21, Montana won two of the first three sets and held leads of 6-2 and 12-10 in the fifth set before losing 15-13. The Vikings faced a 13-7 fifth-set deficit in their match at Missoula the year before and came away with a 16-14 win. Both of last weekend's matches against Weber State and Idaho State came down to fifth sets. Friday against the Wildcats the Grizzlies won 25-17 in the fourth set to forth a fifth. In the decisive set, Montana led 9-7 and was tied with WSU 13-13 before falling 15-13. On Saturday against the Bengals the Grizzlies won the first two sets before ISU won sets three and four. Montana went up 9-8 in the fifth set on a kill by junior Brooke Bray, but that would be UM's final lead of the match. The fifth-set score was 15-12. The good news: Montana played mostly even with the Big Sky's top teams. Portland State and Idaho State are a combined 11-1 in league matches. Home and away: Montana is 1-7 this year in matches away from Missoula. The Grizzlies' lone win came in a neutral-site match against Sacred Heart at San Diego State's tournament. In Montana's first two Big Sky road matches, the Grizzlies lost in four sets at Northern Colorado and three sets at North Dakota. Southern Utah is 2-1 at home this fall. The Thunderbirds beat Utah Valley in straight sets and Sacramento State, 3-1, and lost to Northern Arizona, 3-1. SUU is averaging an impressive 1,106 fans for its home matches. Northern Arizona is the most road-weary team in America. The Lumberjacks have played just one match at home this fall, which makes the Lumberjacks' 12-3 record all the more impressive. NAU played pre-conference tournaments at UNLV, Colorado and California, then played five of its first six Big Sky matches on the road. The team's only home match, against Sacramento State, was a 3-1 victory. More on Southern Utah: The Thunderbirds, who went just 11-20 a year ago, have been a slight surprise in 2012. Picked ninth in the preseason coaches' poll, SUU is off to a 3-3 Big Sky start, with two of those wins coming on the road, against Weber State and Eastern Washington. Senior outside hitter Analaine Mailoto is getting a bulk of the team's sets and ranks second in the Big Sky in kills at 4.03. She is averaging 4.33 kills in league matches. The Thunderbirds' best road win came last week at Eastern Washington. After dropping sets two and three by the ugly scores of 25-16 and 25-17, SUU came back to win sets four and five on .380 hitting. Mailoto had 25 kills in the match on .262 hitting. First timers: When Montana plays at Southern Utah Thursday, the volleyball team will be the first of the Griz programs to play the first-year member of the Big Sky Conference. Series history: Montana and Southern Utah have met just once previously. The Grizzlies defeated the Thunderbirds in five sets last fall at North Dakota's tournament, 25-21, 25-17, 16-25, 23-25, 15-11. More on Northern Arizona: The Lumberjacks are hoping to avoid a repeat of last fall when they opened the season 13-1 and finished 15-10 to shockingly miss out on the Big Sky tournament. Considering almost all of this season's success has come on the road, the team's 2012 12-3 start is probably more impressive than last season's. NAU is winning because it is solid both offensively and defensively. Northern Arizona is hitting .243 for the season, second in the league only to Idaho State's .253, and is limiting its opponents to .169 hitting. That comes from both blocking and digging. The Lumberjacks rank second in the former and third in the latter. NAU's two league losses have come against two of the three teams above it in the standings. The Lumberjacks lost in four sets at Idaho State in their Big Sky opener and lost last Thursday in straight sets at Portland State. Northern Arizona has league road wins at Weber State, 3-0, Southern Utah, 3-1, and Eastern Washington, 3-1. Series history: Montana leads the all-time series with Northern Arizona, 32-23, with an above-.500 record at Flagstaff of 13-12. The Grizzlies have won seven of the last eight meetings overall and four of the last five at NAU. The Lumberjacks won in four sets last fall at Flagstaff. Griz to play shorthanded for second straight week: Montana will be without the services of senior outside hitter Paige Branstiter and redshirt freshman middle blocker Capri Richardson for the second straight weekend. Both are out with lower-leg injuries. In Branstiter's place, freshman Gabby Crowell saw her most extensive game action of the season against Weber State and Idaho State. She struggled offensively against the Wildcats, finishing with four kills on a negative hitting percentage, but came back Saturday to have 13 kills on .065 hitting. Sophomore Natalie Jones played all 10 sets as Montana's second middle blocker behind Brooke Bray. She had six kills on 17 swings in 10 sets while adding five blocks. More on Montana: If fortune favors the bold, that might help explain when both Weber State and Idaho State left Missoula with tight five-set wins last weekend. The two teams combined to put down 25 more kills than the Grizzlies but also had 20 more attack errors. WSU and ISU also had 16 service aces to Montana's seven. ... Despite Montana's 1-5 league record, the Grizzlies are out-hitting their six Big Sky opponents, .187-.184. (Though those opponents have 30 more kills than Montana.) ... Brooke Bray ranks second in the Big Sky in blocking (1.34/s) and fourth in hitting percentage (.325). ... Bray is hitting .338 in league matches. That also ranks fourth. ... On Montana's recent four-match home stand, junior outside hitter Kayla Reno averaged 3.22 kills per set on .244 hitting. ... Junior libero Megan Murphey had a season-high 19 digs against Idaho State. ... In league play, Montana ranks between sixth and 10th in every Big Sky statistical category. Using the entire season, the Grizzlies rank fourth in blocking. ... Junior setter Kortney James had back-to-back assists-digs double-doubles last weekend, giving her six for the season. Upcoming: The Grizzlies will have a single-match week when they host Sacramento State on Friday, Oct. 12. Montana will play at Montana State on Monday, Oct. 15, to conclude the first round of the 20-match Big Sky schedule.

Why not?
This is a discussion on Why I cann't play the amazing spider man on iPad 1? within the New Member Introductions - Site Assistance forums, part of the Apple iPad Discussions category; Why not?...
Why not?
If you are talking about the app, it specifically states (in the AppStore) that it is only compatible with the iPad2 and the new iPad (the iPad3).
More than likely it's because it uses too much RAM to run - and the iPad1 only has a little bit of RAM compared to the others. Sorry.

Checking out CBS' March Madness on Demand, the video quality can be changed from Fair to Good to Better to Best. If you can watch the video in "Best" you truly get the "best" experience to watch the games. Microsoft Silverlight technology which was used for NBC's video streaming of the Olympics as well as Major League Baseball's MLB.TV has improved to the point where the picture is very clear and in HD.
You can switch in between games rather easily either through the "Live Games" tab or the "What's Hot" tab. However, my only criticism is when a game is in break, you have to endure 3 minutes of commercials, you can't change games. CBS has made it so that you have to watch the commercials before you can switch.
Checking on the announcers, Carter Blackburn still looks like he's 15 sitting next to Jay Bilas.

I paid £6.99 for next day delivery which never came. I then e-mailed customer services of bank many times some of which i waited five days for a reply. They tried telling me i lived in a secure unit area and they couldn't get in when actually i live in a detached bungalow. I then had to argue my case until someone actually bothered searching my address on Google maps just to prove it was no fault of my own! It was awful service and I'm never buying offline from bank again.

Metro: Last Light single-player DLC now live, adds three extra missions and a bike shotgun
Metro: Last Light has had a fairly random assortment of downloadable content so far, but the latest is perhaps the most fully fledged, particularly if you enjoy getting slabs of new story content rather than extra guns or alternate modes. The Chronicles pack has just been bolted onto Last Light - er, if you part with $4.99/£3.99 first - and adds three additional single-player missions centered around side-characters Pavel, Khan, Ulman, and Anna. It also adds that fan-made bicycle shotgun weapon because, hey, old habits die hard. As do mutants.

Time to take off the rose colored glasses. Liberals arent willing, nor do they want to sit down and talk sensibly and calmly about this! They seized a perfect opportunity, the Sandy Hook tragedy, to do something theyve all been itching to do for years. Disarm the American people. And the sooner they can ramrod gun control legislation through, the sooner they can yank our 2nd Amendment right and disarm us. You need to realize this is NOT about gun control. If it was they would use laws like, background checks for felons and the unstable, that already exist. This is all, and has always been, simply about controlling, we, the people.
Obama ignores the statistics that for the vast majority of crime America has a Black problem, not a gun problem.
FBI Uniform Crime Report The FBI Uniform Crime Report (also available at the FBI site listed above) makes a number of disturbing points: In 1995, Blacks accounted for 13% of the population; American Indians for 2%, and Mexicans, Whites and all others (the FBI even includes Arabs as Whites) 85%. If the races were equal in their criminal behavior, then it could reasonably be expected that for any given category of crime, 85% of those arrested would be White and 13% of those arrested would be Black. But that is not what is found in the FBI Uniform Crime Report. Under the crime of burglary, 30.4% of arrestees are Black and 67.8% are White. The Black burglary rate 30.4 over 13, divided by the White burglary rate of 67.8 over 85, gives a figure of 2.93. If these arrest records accurately record the commission of burglaries, that means that Blacks commit burglary at almost 3 times the rate of Whites. Using the same methodology, the figures other crimes can also be broken down: * Weapons violations are committed by Blacks at nearly 5 times the rate for Whites; * Blacks are caught receiving or buying stolen property at nearly 5 times the rate for Whites; * Blacks are involved in prostitution at almost 4 times the rate for Whites; * Blacks are arrested for drug crimes at over 4 times the rate for Whites; * Blacks are more than three times as likely as Whites to be caught at forgery, counterfeiting, and fraud, and almost three times as likely to be caught at embezzlement; * Blacks are more than 3 times as likely to be thieves as Whites; * Blacks are more than 4 times as likely to commit assault as Whites; * Blacks are almost 4.5 times as likely to steal a motor vehicle; * Blacks are more than 5 times as likely to commit forcible rape as Whites; * Blacks are over 8 times as likely to commit murder as Whites; * Blacks are more than 10 times as likely to commit robbery as Whites; * Nearly 25% of all Black males between the ages of 20 and 29 are in jail or on probation - this does not include those wanted or awaiting trial; * For all violent crimes considered together, Blacks are almost 5.5 times more likely to commit violent criminal acts than Whites; all this according to the FBI Uniform Crime Report. |
yesterday evening I picked up 3 firearms I ordered online from 3 separate dealers in the USA.
www.gunbroker.com All 3 firearms were shipped to a dealer in Delaware where for $35 a gun, background checks were preformed by the FBI. Why is washington and the liberal press wasting taxpayer dollars debating a new law when it is already in place? answer....to appease the stupid sheep. |

Right, its just diversion by the Democrats instead of addressing the real issues they should be addressing like the economical situation here in the US. Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act The Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (Pub.L. 103159, 107 Stat. 1536, enacted November 30, 1993) is an Act of the United States Congress that instituted federal background checks on firearm purchasers in the United States. It was signed into law by President Bill Clinton on November 30, 1993, and went into effect on February 28, 1994. The Act was named after James Brady, who was shot by John Hinckley, Jr. during an attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan on March 30, 1981. The Brady Act requires that background checks be conducted on individuals before a firearm may be purchased from a federally licensed dealer, manufacturer or importerunless an exception applies. If there are no additional state restrictions, a firearm may be transferred to an individual upon approval by the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) maintained by the FBI. In some states, proof of a previous background check can be used to bypass the NICS check. For example, a state-issued concealed carry permit usually includes a background check equivalent to the one required by the Act. Other alternatives to the NICS check include state-issued handgun purchase permits or mandatory state or local background checks. Section 922(g) of the Brady Act prohibits certain persons from shipping or transporting any firearm in interstate or foreign commerce, or receiving any firearm which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce, or possessing any firearm in or affecting commerce. These prohibitions apply to any person who: 1.Has been convicted in any court of a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year; 2.Is a fugitive from justice; 3.Is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance; 4.Has been adjudicated as a mental defective or committed to a mental institution; 5.Is an alien illegally or unlawfully in the United States; 6.Has been discharged from the Armed Forces under dishonorable conditions; 7.Having been a citizen of the United States, has renounced U.S. citizenship; 8.Is subject to a court order that restrains the person from harassing, stalking, or threatening an intimate partner or child of such intimate partner, or; 9.Has been convicted in any court of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence. 10.Has a record of being a felon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brady_Handgun_Vi... |

PM me which dealer if you can, RS. I may have a better guy for you. Miller's Gun Shop backed the anti-gun legislation, so the locals are boycotting them. Gun control is dead in DE. They withdrew the bill last Wednesday as no dem will go further than background checks, and not support them on private sales. The article is probably on Delaware Online. Pulled it out right under Beau Biden's nose. |

I really don't have a problem with background checks. Particularly at the 'open air' gun shows. Anything beyond that, I'm dead set against. |
"Ludibrium est onus genio" Since: Dec 11 8,386 Planet Earth |
The only problem I have with them is the potential use as a registry... that when they decide to confiscate they'll know where to go. |

I want to ask both "sides". If the issues of gay marriage were linked (I personally think they are... both involve liberty of people who aren't hurting anyone else), which way would you want to see it: Both Gay marriage and guns allowed, or neither allowed?

I think the federal government should pay for the background check since they are forcing the issue. The police department should have register the weapon for me at no cost to me. If government issued ID for voting has to be free to not be considered a poll tax then requiring anyone to buy a permit (this is the case in North Carolina) or paying for a transfer or background check should be free to the citizen. |
"Larchmont's Leading Citizen" Since: Dec 12 7,820 |
Judged: 2 That's exactly why they're pushing it so hard. They've even admitted that background checks wouldn't have stopped any of the mass shootings of the past 15 years. But they're using dead kids and their parents to appeal to low information morons all the while salivating at the thought of a national database. |
"Enoch was right" Since: Jan 13 6,954 This.land.will.burn. |
Judged: 2 1 A guy on MSNBC said "universal gun registration" instead of background checks. It was a Freudian slip, that isn't supposed to be Jour-no-list authorized yet. |

I see it as a states rights issue for gay marriage. States are responsible for licensure to marry. So if the Supreme Court thinks that states should not be able to ban gay marriage by popular vote then no state should be able to have a magazine ban, assault weapons ban, or outlaw concealed carry. The left cannot have their cake and eat it too. And before you leftists start screaming at me I fully support gay marriage and I think it should be a state issue. If gays want to marry get your state to put it on the ballot and vote for it. If you want to be married move to a state that supports it and has laws passed for it. I did this for firearms laws. I could have made more money working in states like Illinois or New York or California, but I like my gun rights and so I chose to move to South Carolina from Ohio. |
I think Obama is wanting to get registration, next will be confiscation. No guns. Then call in Al-Qaeda we are under Shariah Law. The rich fly out of America! |
Hitler told his people that this is good for are nation. He disarmed the people for the greater good. Then he went after jews. He was a leader who had no religous beleifs. I hope it would never happen here or anywhere.

Why do people like you bring up Hitler? We may have a few faults. But ungrateful people that bring up Hitler have a few screws loose in their head. If you were in North Korea, you could really have a worry. If you were in China and made such a ridiculous remark, you most likely would be executed. Those remarks are about the President of the United States. There is a place for some things. A time to remain silent on other things. This isn't Nazi USA! You should be ashamed for denouncing our leadership in such a manner. |

There's no one single or simple cause that leads someone to self-injure. In general, self-injury is usually the result of an inability to cope in healthy ways with psychological pain related to issues of personal identity and having difficulty "finding one's place" in family and society. The person has a hard time regulating, expressing or understanding emotions. The mix of emotions that triggers self-injury is complex. For instance, there may be feelings of worthlessness, loneliness, panic, anger, guilt, rejection, self-hatred or confused sexuality.

New York Times TV critic Alessandra Stanley has a piece (8/31/11) about Al Sharpton's debut as an MSNBC host. It seems his show, like others on the channel, could use more of a debate: On Monday Mr. Sharpton followed the patented formula, bringing in two experts who agreed with him that recent efforts in North Carolina and other states to stiffen voter-identity requirements and restrict early voting would mostly affect the minorities and younger voters who turned out in record numbers for Barack Obama in 2008. Mr. Sharpton called it a "poll tax by another name." It's an interesting issue, […]
Imagine a World Where Racial Assaults by Political Leaders Are Considered News
By 1 Comment
Imagine that the executive director of Rev. Al Sharpton's National Action Network punched a woman in the head while uttering a racial epithet. Imagine further that two years after this hate crime took place, the executive director still had his job, and when Sharpton was asked about this, he speculated about why this story was "even newsworthy," and insisted that "I don't have any day-to-day control over the organization." Does anyone doubt that if such an incident happened, it would be a major national news story, and Sharpton would be facing a firestorm of criticism? Yet precisely such an incident […]

Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: March 5, February 26, September 11 and July 26.
The granddaddy of the line. This kingly wine has all the elegance, finesse and depth you're expect in a flagship wine (or monarch). Notes of butter, apricot, white peach, almond, vanilla and smoke. A finish that lasts til the next day. 4.8/5 Chardonnay food pairings: fishcakes, cobb salad, corn on the cob, potato soup, popcorn.This Le Clos Jordanne Le Grand Clos Chardonnay 2006 was reviewed December 4, 2008 by Natalie MacLean

Birth weight in triplets is, on average, lower than in singletons and twins, and more children are classified as having very low or extremely low birth weight. Still, there is limited research on factors that affect triplet birth weight, and samples under study are often small. Chorionicity and zygosity influence ...

Magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (n-Mag) are nanometer sized, superparamagnetic, have high saturation magnetization, high magnetic susceptibility, and low toxicity. These properties could be utilized for many possible applications; hence, n-Mag has attracted much attention in the scientific community. Some of the potential applications include drug delivery, hyperthermia agents, MRI contrast agents, cell labeling, and cell separation to name a few.
The crystal structure of n-Mag is cubic inverse spinel with Fe3+ cations occupying the interstitial tetrahedral sites(A) and Fe3+ along with Fe2+ occupying the interstitial octahedral sites(B) of an FCC latticed of O2-. Including the site occupation and charge of Fe, the n-Mag chemical formula can be written (Fe3+)A(Fe2+Fe3+)BO4. Non-stoichiometric iron oxide results from B-site vacancies in the crystal structure. To maintain balanced charge and take into account the degree of B-site vacancies the iron oxide formula is written (Fe3+)A(Fe(1-3x)2+ Fe(1+2X)3+Øx)BO4 where Ø represents B-site vacancy. The extent of B-site vacancy has a significant effect on the magnetic properties of iron oxide and in the synthesis of n-Mag stoichiometric iron oxide is not guaranteed; therefore, B-site vacancy warrants attention in iron oxide characterization, and can be addressed using Mossbauer spectroscopy.
