- Senco pc1010
- Brand: Senco | Category: Compressors
OK, a little play on words there, but the truth is that this small compressor is great.Know what you are buying, and then rate it from that point of view. I've seen people here say that this Senco is too small, lacks enough reserve air so it doesn't keep starting to recycle, and all sorts of other comments which show they have no idea of what they are talking about. You don't buy a Prius, or a Smart Car, to use as a tow truck, and you don't buy a small compressor like this to run roofing or framing guns. That's just flat out dumb.I have a large, very heavy, twin tank Emglo compressor for that,which I've owned for almost 20 years, with no issues at all.I bought this Senco for small jobs, where I just need a regular trim gun, or my brad nailer.I have already used this to trim out a small renovation, and it was perfect to attach extension jambs,baseboards, and casing. It is quiet as could be, and so light and compact that it was a breeze to put in my truck, and move around inside the job site. The smaller Makita compressor really isn't this small, and it's very heavy. The Porter Cable pancake compressors are alot bulkier and really noisy as hell.However, if you need to run more than one gun at a time, or to do alot of continous nailing, they are probably a better choice. This Senco really isn't designed for, or well suited to heavy production trim crews in my opinion. However,I couldn't be happier with this purchase for MY NEEDS. The moral of this: IF YOU WANT A FRAMING COMPRESSOR,OR A PRODUCTION TOOL,BUY A LARGER HEAVY DUTY COMPRESSOR.IF YOU WANT A SMALL, LIGHT, EASY TO CARRY TRIM COMPRESSOR FOR SMALL JOBS, BUY THIS LITTLE SENCO UNIT.
BTW, the trim guns that I own are also Sencos, and I've had them for about 20 years too. Never a problem with either one.I've heard good things about the new Hitachi guns and I may get one of them because it can use 2 1/2 inch nails, where my Senco only goes up to 2 inch.I've used Bostitch guns before, and I really dislike them immensely. Lots of misfires and jams.
I have been a carpenter for 35 years, and a Union Carpenter for 25. I've had experience using virtually every brand of compressor and nail gun on the market.It sure helps to be able to actually try it out before you buy something.I hope this will help someone else make sensible choices for their needs.

In December, I replaced a 1 gal Campbell-Hausfeld pancake compressor with the Senco and absolutely love it. My site work is all light trim work, and a lightweight compressor is more than adequate. The C-H did a great job, but was way too noisy. When the Senco fires up, you can still hear the radio. – lol

This compressor is so light that in houses I just carry it from outlet to outlet and use a 10' coiled (slinky) hose. This helps a ton when the room is furnished.

Thanks for the review. One of the difficult things when evaluating other people's experiences is gauging how they used the machine in the first place. Light duty machines are often unfairly judged because they can't keep up with heavy use production work. Tools should only be judged in accordance with the capabilities they were designed for.
-- There is little that is simple when it comes to making a simple box.
#4 posted 1281 days ago
I have one of these. I sold my 6.5 hp 30gal Craftsman and bought the Senco from Amazon. It's quiet and light. I usually use it with my Brad nailer and it works just fine. I did use it with my framing nailer for a project and it worked OK for that too. I'm sure it wouldn't keep up for a framing or a roofing crew, but if you just need to put in a few dozen nails it works just fine.
Since this is a small compressor it also works just fine on a 15 amp circuit. My bigger craftsman would sometimes blow the breaker if something else was on in anything less than a 20 amp circuit.

I have a small Campbell Hausfield that is the same class as your Senco. Small and portable, quick and light, perfect for those quick in and out jobs or where your simply not shooting alot. Keeps up with a brad nailer or pin nailer with no problem.

I have this compressor as well. I have even used it with my framing nailer when building small projects. You just have to let it recharge if you pull the trigger too many times in a row.
It is what it is, a small portable air compressor. Not designed to be a production machine but great at what it does.

The Westminster Fire Department participates in many community events to actively promote fire and life safety and to support charitable causes. Here's what's coming soon:
Fill the Boot for MDA -- Your spare change changes lives! Westminster firefighters will be out near local retail areas raising funds for MDA over Labor Day weekend. MDA is a nonprofit health agency dedicated to curing muscular dystrophy, ALS and related diseases by funding worldwide research. Locally the "Fill the Boot" campaign supports a summer camp held in Empire, CO for kids with these illnesses. A few Westminster firefighters trek up to the camp each summer to visit with the kids, which makes them even more dedicated to the "Fill the Boot" campaign that has been supported by firefighters nationwide for 60 years. Keep an eye out for firefighters when you are out and about over Labor Day weekend and toss a bit in the boot if you have the chance!
Special Needs Day Sept. 28 -- Youth with special needs and their families are invited to join us at the training tower (3851 Elk Dr.) on Sunday, Sept. 28 from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. to see rappelling, hoses, ladders, auto extrication and more! There will be rides on the vintage fire engine, an obstacle course, and firefighter gear to try on. See you there!
October is Fire Prevention Month, click the image below to learn how to keep your family fire safe!
Every year fires start because of faulty products. One way to be safe is to stay apprised of recalls through the public notices by UL and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission.

511. At Luna's wedding, the whole of the front row of seats was reserved for apparently no one. Harry went up to her at the end of the service. "Luna, who was meant to sit there?" Luna turned her glassy eyes on him. "Oh, they did sit there. In a spiritual way, I suppose," she said. She pointed out the seats one by one. "Right. That one's for my mother, those are for your parents because I think I would have liked them, that one is for Sirius, the one next to that is for Professor Lupin - they were friends, weren't they? - and that's for Tonks, then Fred Weasley, then Mad-Eye, then Professor Dumbledore, then Professor Snape. I hope they liked the wedding." She smiled and waved into what was seemingly empty space, before prancing off into the crowds. Harry had never felt so touched before.

The relationship between particularism and universalism is a long-standing topic of debate. As two different standards and manners of describing social relations, both are not in fact radically antagonistic, or in an either-or relationship. In almost all societies, universalism and particularism coexist; only, generally speaking, particularism is more prevalent and important in traditional societies, while universalism has more recognition in modern societies. After all, the people who form the world are becoming more and more similar, and more and more related, and people's social life needs more common norms and values.
Since the 1980s, along with the rise of multiculturalism, communitarianism and feminism, the prevalence of anti-universalist thinking in Western societies – including questions on the unitary aspect of modernity, unipolar criticism, the ideology of science and the enlightenment discourse – is a critical reflection on the problems that Western societies are facing. It is actually a crticism of Western ethnocentricity and the theory of cultural advantage. But if you were to blindly pursue or apply Western anti-universalism in a different context, such as that of Chinese society, which still struggles with pre-modern and non-modern predicaments, this would undoubtedly lead to diametrically opposite results.
The anthropology of modern society emphasizes cultural relativism, and adopts a critical position towards Western ethnocentricity and its cultural hegemony. In fact, this relativism is rare: regarding ethnocentricity – it still considers its own culture to be the most advanced, the most civilised, and an object for all mankind to follow. But cultural relativism, pushed to the extreme, may lead to cultural particularism, which it opposes: so-called relativism is opposed to the absolute, the unipolar; the proposition is plural coexistence. Co-existing on the same field is equivalent to playing a great game together. But to play together, there must be mutually recognised rules of the game, there should be a mutually acceptable standard of value – universal values. Thus we can say that universal values constitute the rational basis for common norms in human society.
From time to time, I see people emphasizing China's special conditions, and saying it should not implement Western democracy – following the particularist point of view that China must maintain its own characteristics and go its own way. Furthermore, in order to prove the uniqueness and superiority of the "Chinese model": a national system, concentration of power to achieve big things, unity (as opposed to diversity), stability (as opposed to unrest), etc etc. In order to emphasize China's peculiarity, you must criticize universal values, and to prove the superiority of the Chinese model, demonstrate that there are no common values. But the perverse thing is that this same argument is often used to denounce the poor quality of Chinese people, and to conclude that they are not fit for democracy.
Every time I read similar views and arguments, I can't help but want to ask out loud: is China really like that ? And as a follow up question – are Chinese people people?
What are universal values? According to Wikipedia, they are values and ideas that all people or almost all people identify with, based only on conscience or reason, independently of religion, nationality or ethnicity. In short, hey say that everyone should be treated in a way which is human and humane; and that is that everyone should enjoy the basic freedom of belief, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of association, freedom from want and freedom from fear.
A few years ago, in a special edition of an official magazine on universal values, I wrote a text called "universal values are commonsense". According to commonsense understanding, "universal values" refer to ideas developed through the process of civilisation's development over the course of mankind's history, such as freedom, democracy, science, human rights, rule of law, equality, fraternity, etc. They refer to truths ordinary people can understand, 说白了就是人人都需要人人都喜欢的价值观,有人说得极端些,就是连流氓都不能公开否认的东西。是啊,流氓都得承认的理,强盗都得遵守的道,还用得着讨论么?Denying common values basically amounts to publicly stating: I am not reasonable. Reminiscent of the cultural revolution slogan: I prefer the socialist grassroots, I do not want the seeds of capitalism', we recently saw a new slogan appear, saying 'I would rather grass no longer grew in China, but the Diaoyu island must come back', or "宁可中国遍地坟,也要杀光日本人"的标语: this is a manifestation of the absence of reason.
That being said, no matter how much the Chinese insist on their own 'special characteristic', and how strongly we resist Western modernity, how much we want to form our own modernity, and explore a path of development superior to that of the West, and how much we want achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we cannot go against universal values, and we cannot deviate from the mainstream of human civilisation. Unless we're just a group that doesn't distinguish seed from grass, black from white – a group in complete confusion.
其后,更有柏杨以《丑陋的中国人》为书名,痛指"这么一个庞大的国度,拥有全世界四分之一人口的一个庞大民族,却陷入贫穷、愚昧、斗争、血腥等等的流沙之中,难以自拔。"对中国人的"脏、乱、吵"、"窝里斗"、"不能团结"、"死不认错"、"没有包容性的性格",只有"狭窄的心胸"等等丑陋现象一一针砭,further, he analyses the causes of this 'ugliness' in the following way: "The Chinese people form a deeply wounded nation, they haven't been trained in the ability to praise and value others, and they've developed into polarised animals, self-deprecating or flattering others." And because the sauce has stayed in the pan for too long, thinking, judgement and vision have all been contaminated from whatever pollution is in the pan, and it's very hard to get out of the pan's limited scope". And the cultural revolution, this artificial catastrophe, not only caused lives to be lost, "The biggest loss was the destruction of human nature and the devastation of noble character. If people leave humanity and noble character, then there is no difference with animals."
My co-nationals who have strong national pride and self-respect as a people, on seeing this evaluation, will probably tremble with rage, but looking more closely, I think they might find it does have reason to it, 所谓爱之深,恨之切. Let me return to the question: in the end, how special are we? Are we still not members of the human community? No matter how unique how diet, clothes, language, culture, religion, beliefs, etc, there should be no objection to the fact that we belong to mankind, so the question is, what is it that would make us special, or in other words, are there alternative ways of being human?
Whether Chinese people are people or not depends on whether institutional arrangements and the government's philosophy is oriented towards people, treats people as people, and is consistent with humane and human values 人道主义待人.
When people are helpless in front of the reality of social injustice, we often hear the following sentence: "Don't forget that you're in China". This highlights the fact that the institutional machine does not treat people humanly. In Lei Feng's famous diary, we find this sentence: "I want to be a screw in the service of the revolution, where the party places me, there I will shine and never rust." A revolutionary slogan during the cultural revolution said: "Revolutionary fighters are like bricks, where they're needed, there they must go; and they shouldn't be proud of making up towers, or sad to build a toilet block."
Obviously, screws are not human; bricks are not human; worthless ants are not human; docile tools are not human; potatoes are not human; the rabble is not human; the boxers are not human; the Red Guards are not human… everyone who is just driven from the outside is not human in the true sense! Soldiers in the civil war are not human, they're cannon fodder; 历次政治运动中的斗争对象不是人,是要被消灭的阶级敌人即非人,而作为运动动力的群众也不是人,是被利用的武器;Those who died in the Great Famine are not human, they're just population statistics; 新世界工厂中的工人不是人,而是灵巧又驯服的人手;Olympic athletes on the field are not people, but tools to win a Gold Medal; 死于"躲猫猫"等五花八门形式的在押嫌疑犯们没有被当作人;在街头被城管追、打、抢、砸的小商贩们没有被当作人;倒在强拆车轮下的钱云会们没有被当作人!在现实和虚拟世界中被禁言被失踪的也同样没有被当作人!同样地,实施强制压迫的国家机器当然也不是人。……
"以人为本",这是党和政府早在2003年党的十六届三中全会上就明确提出的,并且作为科学发展观的基础。为此,我们必须改变不把人当作人的制度与文化基础。The crux of many problems in China is that people are not treated as people. For instance, when we say: "development is the ultimate truth', when facing this 'ultimate truth', we must ask: what is development? Whose development? Can economic development and GDP growth be the 'ultimate' point in people's existence, growth and freedom? Or again, when we say: "Stability takes precedence", we must ask: why stabilise? Who will benefit most from 'stabilising'? What are the foundations for 'stabilising'? 社会稳定不应成为目标,稳定永远不能"压倒"人民的幸福和尊严!而当我们探索中国的宪政民主之路、努力融入人类文明主流的时候,却总有强大而不停的呱噪:中国人不适合民主,一旦民主就会乱;决不搞西方那一套;中国模式最优越。This is as if you were still on your knees, and someone told you standing up could be dangerous, you could fall down.
In today's world, for the people of a country to become real people, first they must become citizens, 即懂法律、有理性、知晓自己的权利、义务且能够合法合理地保护自己权利的有组织的公民。是不是人取决于我们要把自己当作人!Strive to become citizens, and promote the growth of a civil society. 这也是阿伦特意义上的行动的人,独立思考的人,积极生活的人。In Annah Arendt's view, the nature of citizenship is not just the identity of people within a political community, but it's a role and an ability, 自由的个体以此在共同事务中成为有效成员。而相较于劳动和工作,行动置于"人的条件"的核心位置。行动是至高无上的人性的形式,没有行动的生命"简直是死寂一片,它不再是一种人类生活,因为此时人不再生活于人与人之间"。
公民的行动以人的自由、尊严以及积极进取的主体性为基础,以人的自我启蒙为条件。由此个人才不再是孤独冷漠绝望的个体,而是现代社会中的公民——承担作为公民的责任,为自己的权利负责,为公共事务负责。公民社会的力量,公民的觉醒与能动性——公民的勇气、公民的能力和公民的智慧是创造性力量,也是社会活力与改革动力的不竭之源。体制改革的动力来自社会而非权力自身:体制内的改革力量是在社会力量的逼迫下产生的;rules of fairness and justice are formed through the interplay of all sorts of forces; civil society is produced by citizens taking part in collective action. Leaving the standstill and restoring social vitality can only begin from the consciousness and actions of the citizens.
On February 28 1804, all the churches in the small German town of Konigsberg starting tolling the bell, informing passers-by that the philosopher Emmanuel Kant, born 80 years earlier in that same place, had just found its way to the icy grave. On a plain tombstone, this sentence from the 'Critic of Practical Reason' was written, in the hand of Beethoven: above my head the stars in the sky, and in my heart the moral imperative.
The second article of the 'Declaration of Independence' says: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." This is now famous as one of the 'fifty sentences which changed humanity."
Starting from everyday life, in order to achieve and protect the possibility to defend and pursue the right to life, freedom and happiness, we will prove that Chinese people are not different, but equal members of the human family. And through this process, real people will stand up – People with a capital P.

I really liked the game. Also in the first video I noticed a lot of similarities to the opening to farscape. Was that a coincidence ( tbh I doubt that) or what. Either way it made me laugh.
After the first several item finds they all seem to turn to resources rather than items, leaving me with no other upgrades to look forward to as I don't have the required components. The help file doesn't mention anything I might be missing to find more, so I'm just assuming it's a matter of rarity - gets very monotonous after the first hour or so.
Great game.
The only bad thing about it is that gemstone deposites look WAY too large.
It makes the game look amateur.
une amnesik ma fait un fuque you
[Why do I have to use numbers?*facepalm* Okay, here we go again:]
Graphics: 5/5
They are really nice for a flash game, IMO, and I really like the setting and colors chosen.
Audio: 4/5
If not for occasional monotony it is still pretty nice and calm soundtrack.
Interface: 4/5
It is nice and readable, but somewhat intimidating for it's vastness. There isn't anything wrong with it though.
Gameplay mechanics: 4/5
The gameplay mechanics makes sense, everything is in order, I could not say, that there is something too much of or something not enough, it is pretty well balanced.
Replay Value: 3/5
Once completed, do I want to start all over again? Sorta... After a few months or so, I keep drawn back to this game.
I LOVE the setting of it. I like the suggestions about the fate of humanity, and this "Stranded in Space" setting. Something rare... Also videos make me only think one thing: "Homeworld" and trust me, I loved that game (technically all of them - the original, Cataclysm and Homeworld 2), so it is a definite compliment.:D

Location was great Room was very spacious and unique. We loved the outdoor space. The owner was very gracious with her time. She showed us around the city and was very helpful. Laura and Joel
Location near interesting cafés two steps from our door and not very far to walk to seaside and quirky shops. Very unique and creative decor. Spacious with room extra sofa bed for our adult daughter to stay. All amenities provided including coffee, fresh milk and chocolates. Best to use the parking yard around the corner as the parking next door is too expensive.
Probably Because of old district and there not much ventilation in bathroom area. There were scented sticks to assis but these were too strong. However this was not a big issue. Avoid parking next door.
Great location. 10 minutes walk to the beach, 10 minutes walk to the bars on florentin st. and 2 min walk to the restaurants on Rothschild. There are 4 restaurants directly outside Trieste that are upscale places to get a drink / bite.
the swing in the room
The location is amazing, I loved my room, very confortable and beautiful. I loved the small details like chocolates, coffee and cookies. The owner was so helpful at all times. Very clean and the internet worked really well. Nothing to complain. Excellent!
The room was beautiful and unique, especially with the swing in the middle. The location is unbeatable, sitting at the entry to Neve Tzedek. Odelia, our host, was very kind and helpful.
The crowing roosters. Somewhere nearby are 2 roosters that make a bit of noise in the middle of the night. My wife slept right through it, but I struggled a bit.
The location was the best feature, with lots of good restaurants and shops nearby. We took the breakfast option at the nearby restaurant, Lola's, which was excellent. the room was comfortable and clean, but kitchen facilities were minimal.
Our choice of taking the smallest room was a mistake, as it was rather crowded with the large jacuzzi bath right in the bedroom. Either of the other rooms would have been much better.
Great, characterful little studio with lovely tiny courtyard. Amazing location, walk out the door and there are lots of nice cafes, restaurants, 5 mins to beach...1 min to Rothschild Blvd Really. Helpful, relaxed and friendly manager.
Some noise - the location is a trendy cafe/restaurant area and has noise levels as you would expect, there is a car park to the rear of the suites.
Nestled in a Mediterranean version of Manhattans west village, these eclectically furnished boutique suites are heavenly. Dalia is a gracious and attentive hostess and even took us to her neighborhood market for a taste of authentic Tel Aviv. Neve Tzedek is a great place to explore on foot and a short walk from the markets in Jaffa and a stroll along the sea at sunset. We loved staying at Trieste and Room 2 and 3 were very comfortable for my husband and I with our adult daughter thanks to a lovely curtain separating our bed from her sofa bed in the sitting area of the room. The high ceilings and stone walls made the room feel spacious and exotic.
The rooms could use more hooks on the walls for towels and clothing.
Cool place in the best neighbourhood of Tel Aviv.
Book Suite # 2 for the best natural light and a quite sleep. All 3 suites have eclectic bohemian furnishings, large flat screenTV, premium bedding and 2 have big jacuzzi tubs. The Family Suite has a good stereo system which we loved as we prefer music to TV. You will love this neighborhood - you can walk to great restaurants, ice cream shops, wine bars, the old railway station renovation and the Suzanne Dellal Center - it's a foodie destination with cultural options! Odelia, the manager is lovely and will take care of all your needs.
Nothing really - but some of the furnishings seem like an after-thought and need design attention (distressed paint or faux detail) to come up to the design level of the rest of the decor.
Everything. Amazing location, adorable and interesting room. Comfortable for 2 adults and 2 kids. Unique in every way. Just be aware that it is not a "hotel" with a concierge and that kind of thing. You need to be able to navigate on your own. It was perfect for us.
location. very nice interier
very humid

And nearly 25% have used their devices to comparison shop in stores.
15% of consumers have used their mobile devices to make purchases, and nearly 25% have used their devices to compare prices while in a store, according to a new study of 3,611 U.S. adults by research, consulting and technology firm SmartRevenue.
The survey also found that 96.2% of respondents own a mobile phone and just under half own a smartphone, which render richer mobile commerce shopping experiences.
The study, conducted on behalf of e-commerce and m-commerce technology vendors Sterling Commerce and Demandware Inc., also found that:
• More than 60% of consumers believe being able to use their mobile phones while shopping to verify product availability at a particular store location is important to very important.
• 20% currently use their phones to create shopping lists or baskets, and slightly more than that would be interested in a mobile app to help with shopping list or basket management for their favorite retailers.
• 67% are interested in the possibility of using their mobile phones to scan and purchase items, thus enabling them to bypass checkout lines.
• 25% believe receiving specials and promotions, such as coupons, would be an important use for their mobile phones when shopping.
"Mobility is more than a channel, and as consumers begin to use mobile devices in all aspects of their shopping process, cross-channel will be essential for retailers to succeed," says Jim Bengier, global retail industry executive at Sterling Commerce. "Today's consumers are transforming the shopping experience with their mobile phones, and retailers who have not broken down their siloed channels will not be able to keep up."
The survey also found some concerns that may hinder the adoption of m-commerce among some consumers. The concerns include:
- Difficulty with the small screen size (34%) and therefore difficulty in visualizing the products (31%).
- Security issues (28%).
- Slow performance of an m-commerce site (22%).
- Difficulties entering information because of small keypad (21%).
Although security issues were mentioned as a concern by only 28% of respondents, the top services that would encourage more mobile phone purchases all to a degree address security issues, the survey says:
- Nearly half of consumers would like the option of using PayPal.
- Nearly 40 percent would feel secure knowing that a mobile phone app would not store their credit card number.
- A quarter of consumers would prefer that the mobile phone would show only a truncated credit card number (last 4 digits).
- About 20 percent would like to be prompted to enter their 3-digit credit card security numbers.
But whatever the concerns, m-commerce has grown significantly in the last few years, and research firms predict billions more in sales in the years ahead.
"The survey findings suggest that offering mobile access to the brand is no longer just a 'nice to have'; it has become a necessity," says Jamus Driscoll, vice president of marketing at Demandware. "The mandate for retailers is not only to create a mobile channel to give consumers more options, but also to find innovative ways to leverage mobile to influence consumer shopping and purchase behavior across all sales channels."

Region braced for more bad weather as rail disruption continues into next week
Passengers wanting to get into Devon and Cornwall have been told there are unlikely to be any direct rail services until Monday. Flooding on both main line routes into Exeter has forced First Great Western and South West Trains to lay on buses instead.
– National Rail Enquiries
Disruption will continue throughout Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th November
South West Trains was forced to suspend all services between Exeter St David's and Yeovil Junction when flooding undermined the track at Broom near Axminster washing away the ballast which supports it. The company says it hopes to reopen the route on Monday but in the meantime buses will replace trains.
All First Great Western trains have been suspended between Exeter and Tiverton Parkway following more flooding there. Passengers are being warned to expect disruption throughout the weekend. CrossCountry has also cancelled all services between Exeter St David's and Taunton.

What is the most valuable tool when deciding to draft or wait on a player? ADP, which stands for Average Draft Position. It is simply the average draft pick that a player is getting drafted in recent mocks. For example, Calvin Johnson's ADP is 5.61 and when you rank that value against the value of all other players, he is the 5th selection or a No. 5 ADP. Why does it matter? Because, reaching on a player because you did not know that you could have waited two rounds to get him is the best way to ruin the value of your draft.
Every other week since May, I have been compiling ADP data from over a dozen sources. These sources are Expert Drafts, Top 200 Lists and Amateur Mock Draft results. It's a valuable tool for me, but I have found that tracking the movement from week-to-week is most telling. So, every two weeks I compare the results to find the players on the rise and those falling. I want to find the trends.
And as per usual, the final ADP report of the year is the one that shows the most movement. Whereas up until August, movement was based on injuries, suspensions, hearsay and speculation, now, movement is based on play on the field and camp reports. Below, I have listed the biggest movers of the week.
On the Rise:
RB Evan Royster, Redskins - UP 49 spots to ADP: 110 - The Washington backfield has always been a murky situation, and the trend continues in 2012. With Roy Helu's nagging injuries, Royster is starting to get some love from mock drafters. But, watch out for the ever-present Tim Hightower and Alfred Morris (who?) to steal touches. Evan could be a late-round flier for RB depth.
RB Kevin Smith, Lions - UP 43 spots to ADP: 76 - Kevin has been rising for a month, but with news about Jahvid Best's health, or lack thereof, coupled with Mikel Leshoure's early season suspension, Smith is primed to get a ton of carries and catches to start the year for Detroit. He is a great mid-round sleeper RB. And he's valuable when coupled with an early pick of MJD or Trent Richardson or Ryan Mathews or Adrian Peterson. All of these guys could be sidelined for a few weeks, which are the very same weeks that Smith could be carrying the load for the Lions.
RB Rashad Jennings, Jaguars - UP 38 spots to ADP: 119 - Every day that MJD's holdout continues is another day that Rashad's draft stock is rising. Fantasy greatness is achieved through many factors, but opportunity and talent are two very important ones. Rashad is showing off both this preseason. I will be saying the name "Rashad Jennings" a few times in my drafts next week.
WR Danny Amendola, Rams - UP 35 spots to ADP: 145 - His 2011 was cut very short with a triceps injury, but he's looking more and more like a go-to for Sam Bradford and the Rams. If you are in a PPR league, then target Danny with a late pick. He'll be a great spot starter for you as a bye week fill-in.
QB Andrew Luck, Colts - UP 28 spots to ADP: 112 - Rarely does a rookie live up to the hype. Need we think back to Ryan Mathew's rookie campaign? But, Luck looks like the real deal for the Colts. Yes, he is a rookie and yes, he has limited weapons, but his stock is rising to a solid, top-end QB2 level. And, if you're in dynasty/keeper leagues, this guy could be your starter for the next decade!
WR Randall Cobb, Packers - UP 25 spots to ADP: 133 - As mentioned earlier, fantasy greatness is driven by many factors, but opportunity is a big one. And with Greg Jennings battling a concussion, mock drafters are starting to wonder if Cobb is the 2012 version of Jordy Nelson circa 2011. And for the cheap cost of a tenth round pick he is worth a shot! He is especially valuable in leagues that award points for return yardage.
RB Jacquizz Rodgers, Falcons - UP 23 spots to ADP: 121 - Few players have underwhelmed during the preseason like Michael Turner. It's clear to me and anyone that has watched the Falcons on offense, that the "burner" is burned out. Matt Ryan and the boys just seem to be performing at a higher level with Jacq on the field. Could he possibly fill the Reggie Bush/Darren Sproles role for Atlanta this year?
Look Out Below:
RB Jahvid Best, Lions - DOWN 69 spots to ADP: 160 - Jahvid is nearly unrosterable at this point as concussion worries may end his career. I wouldn't spend more than a fifteenth round flier on this Lion, who has lost his roar.
RB James Starks, Packers - DOWN 48 spots to ADP: 125 - The latest word out of Green Bay is that Starks may be in jeopardy of not even making the Packers' 53-man roster. Let's just say, the addition of the nearly 30 year-old Cedric Benson was not a good sign for Starks. He is off of my radar.
RB Roy Helu, Redskins - DOWN 27 spots to ADP: 89 - As I've mentioned in previous ADP Trends articles, every move by one player's value affects the value of one or more other players. This theory is evident this week. As Roy Helu is injured and falling out of grace, we see Royster and Hightower and Morris all on the rise. Given the philosophy of their head coach and his son the play-caller, and the Redskins lack of offensive pop, I won't be drafting a Washington runner in the single digit rounds.
WR Michael Floyd, Cardinals - DOWN 26 spots to ADP: 169 - His ADP suggests that this Cardinal rookie receiver from Minnesota may be waiver wire bait in your league come draft day. News out of Arizona is that he will most likely not be starting opposite Larry Fitzgerald to begin the season. But, he is one of the few guys in this section that I will be targeting late. He has size and speed, once he gets opportunity, he could blossom.
WR Sidney Rice, Seahawks - DOWN 22 spots to ADP:131 - Sidney has been a walking injury report all off-season. Rice has missed 17 games over the past two seasons, with 2011's missed games led by a concussion and shoulder injuries which led to surgery. The additions of Terrell Owens and Braylon Edwards show us how confident the Seahawks coaching staff is in Rice. I'm staying away.
RB Ryan Mathews, Chargers - DOWN 18 spots to ADP: 24 - The title of 'Sexy First Round Pick' has moved from Ryan Mathews to Darren McFadden with just one preseason carry. Mathews' injury has solidified what we already knew about this fragile back. But, at what point, will he fall into the value range? I like him as an RB2 in the late-second or early-third. Drafting him is a risky, "play to win" type of move!

A very very long day of driving
... at least an hour more of drive time then we had initially thought it would be. Luckily for us, the drive was beautiful. It was a great way to see the Spanish country side. We drove through mountains, valleys, over rivers and through little farm areas. Not to mention a large city, Madrid. In a weird way, everything reminded us a little of driving through Mexico. And not just all of the road signs being in ...
A Day Trip fit for a King
... Although slightly creepy, it was an amazing feeling to be in the presence of so many of the powerful people I have been studying about all semester.
The library of the Escorial was definitely the most impressive library I had ever sat foot in. It holds collections from all over the world in many languages. Its oldest book is from the 5th century roman times! Behind the Vatican, it is the library with the most precious collection in the world!
Not Traveling Still Means Traveling!
... of St. Teresa of �vila, one of the most well-known catholic saints. Although I am not very familiar with her, some of my catholic friends here have explained to me her significance, so it was interesting to have visited her city. Later on in the day, Olivia and I went into her main shrine in �vila, which was built over where she was born. Although didn't catch a glimpse, apparently a finger off her right hand is displayed here for ...
A few last things in Valencia, and drive to Avila
... to go to the Science Museum. Its similar to Te Papa but with a lot more 'hands on' activities. The kids loved it - particularly enjoying the memory section and an Institute of Biomechanics section. We didn't even cover half of it - quite basic but good.
Out in one of the pools, there were a couple of guys with the large plastic balls (like Zorbs) which you can go inside. Eva and Luke were really keen, ...
Missed it!
... walk alongside a rather unremarkable lake. It's still very cool and I'm wearing long trousers, thick socks, fleece and cagoule - a few days ago I wasn't wearing anything!
Then it's on to Las Navas del Marques, where there's an old castle which seems to have been converted into some kinds of conference centre or arts centre. The town also has a large number of empty workshops and industrial units, some of them fairly new. It's another indication ...

Alright, so before i begin with what i`d like to say, let`s just say that i really appreciate what MindChamber did. Give props to him too guys, and a special thanks to him for boosting my file size limiter. Yes, thanks to him, you guys can watch this here too.
Also, i`d like to wish everyone a Happy New Year and a... well.. delayed Merry Christmas. School work delayed the schedule which i planned; to upload this much sooner. Anyways the first semester ended, and i finished everything at the same time. So now i`ll take the winter holiday and rest.
Alright, let`s get back to the main topic.
While i was asking and waiting for a size limit, i DID upload this on YouTube AND Spritas (an animation forum; join it), and this video has been the most commented one since i`ve ever started to upload stuff anywhere. And i did get a lot, and i mean a LOT of questions both critic wise, animation wise, and plot wise. I will answer these in my new topic. All of it; so make sure you visit it, read and i`m sure you will comprehend.

And also; I forgot to mention a few people in the credits. So; without further ado; give a special thanks to:
- GEARichard - For Effect Resources and Support;
- SXR123 - For Inspiration... and bitching;
- ShunanX - Inspiration;
- TheRedHeadHenry - Inspiration;
And now that i`ve cleared it all up; Enjoy the movie, visit my YouTube and Facebook pages; and have a Happy New Year and winter holidays too!
this was good but one thing is a HUGE downfall THE load times
The what?
not bad
i thought it had some nice movement and a great sense of timing.
Unless its episodic, it didnt feel like it had any sort of story. Which isnt always bad, sometimes you just want some nice braindead action, in which this case it delivers.
would be curious to see what you can do with some original characters though.
Yea, i`ll be doing that soon enough. But um, like i said, this doesn`t really follow the DBZ-Verse story, it`s just pure action as a result to my work in Flash. And also; THANKS MAN!
Best action best sprite I've seen
I'm currently working on a sprite battle type animation that I will incorporate my flash skills, voicing skills, and after effects. (Even though I'am new to after effects)
But this is by far one of the best sprite battles I've seen. (I will now look up to you)
Only one problem is the voices, I couldn't hear what anyone was saying half the time.
The animation again was beautiful, no words can describe the beauty of it. =)
Haha thanks a bunch man, I appreciate it.

Freddie Gibbs - The Hard
Artist: Freddie Gibbs
Producer: Feb.9
Album: Baby Face Killa
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 12 total votes )
To mangle a popular saying, when the going gets hard, The Hard get hustling. One of today's most prominent and unapologetic purveyors of that street sh*t, Freddie Gibbs continues to chronicle the struggles, dangers and fleeting triumphs of life on the block on the latest single off his forthcoming Gangsta Grillz tape. Coming on the heels of the addictive Bout It Bout It, this joint is considerably lower-key than its predecessor, with producer Feb. 9 flipping an ethereal sample of The Emotions' Don't Ask My Neighbors as the Gary, Indiana rhymesayer offers a dealer's-eye-view of his urban environment. Singer Dana Williams' luxuriant vocals provide further contrast to Gibbs' gritty verses. While the DJ Drama-hosted Baby Face Killa as yet lacks a drop date, we'll keep you supplied with all the latest news and tunes in the lead-up to its arrival.
