Rifle packages from Sniper Central are a complete ready to go package that allows the
shooter to be out on the range immediately after receiving the package. The rifles are
put together using a factory built barreled action and then we put it into the stock,
mount the base, rings and scope and then test fire the rifle to zero the scope. The
package price includes the completed rifle, scope, bipod, and case with everything
assembled. The stocks are custom ordered per customer, and while a bit slower, it does
allow us to get you the exact rifle you want. Take a look at the details and prices below
and contact us if you have any questions.
Email questions to: firstname.lastname@example.com
The rifles come completely assembled and zeroed at 100 yards. We fire the minimum amount of rounds
to zero the rifle, usually 3-6 rounds. With only this few of rounds fired it should not interfere with the barrel break-in procedure
by the owner if they elect to do so. Be sure to click on the details of the calibers and check the
twist rates to determin if they will work for the loads you want to use. Unfortunately the stocks take
a while to get from the time we place the order and as such we cannot provide an exact build
time for the rifles but an estimate is provided below. The exact package options may change as new products become available
and we test them for use on these packages. Because we are using factory barreled actions the
performance of the rifle cannot be guaranteed but they all seem to be shooting around .5 - .75 MOA.
Over all we have been very pleased with the performance of these rifles compared to the price point and
they have been enjoyable to put together. The goal of these rifles is to get individual and agencies that need a long range rifle
into the game quickly and at a very good price but yet still provide the required performance needed for
precision short and long range engagements. We have both a Remington and a Howa entry package that we use during
our long range
shooting classes, and we routinely shoot them out to 1000 yards with good results.
We start with factory barreled actions and we then put them in the Bell & Carlson Medalist stock with a full aluminum bedding block.
The barrels are free floated all the way to the action. Combined with an EGW 20 MOA or 15 MOA rail (depending on scope selected) and Burris XTR
rings we mount the scope. The base scope is the new Bushnell Elite 10x40 Tactical, which we feel is about the minimum quality tactical scope we would use.
There are other optional scopes and if you have something in mind that is not listed, let us know, we typically can get any scope you
would like. There are several other common options listed as well, which all allow you to create a unique rifle package
to suit your needs.
IMPORTANT: Please read the details about the purchase process for these packages.
When we place our orders for the Bell & Carlson stocks we typically order some extra's, but more often than not, the extra's we get
ordered tend to end up used on other packages before they ever arrived. But this time around, for whatever reason, that did not happen!
So we actually have some stocks on hand in certain configurations, which if you order a rifle package using one of these stocks we
have on hand, it would allow your rifle package to be completed MUCH faster. Depending on other options and how fast the base rifle
gets back to us, I would estimate 2-4 month build times. So, if one of the stocks listed below looks like one you would like, place
the order and we'll use it and save the time!
Here is what we have on hand as of 09/19/2014 (All for Remington 700 packages)
Mk1A (Short Action) in Dark Timber Camo
Mk1A (Short Action) in Black
Mk1 (Short Action) in Green
Mk1 (Short Action) in Black
Mk1 (Short Action) in Black with Grey Webbing
Mk2 Adjustable (Long Action) in Green
HS Precision PST008 (Short Action) in Black
Law Enforcement & Military Trade In - If you are looking to replace or upgrade your deparment's current sniper rifle(s), ask about

BALER CHURCH (Baler, Aurora) – Situated south of Quezon Memorial Park, in its vicinity stands Mount Carmel College. Baler's patron saint is San Luis Obispo de Tolosa. The church is built largely of stones and bricks. This was the old historically famous garrison during the Spanish regime and the last pocket of resistance of the Spanish armed forces to surrender to the American Troops. It existed until the end of 1939 when the foundation of the new church was laid as the old church was almost eroding and falling into pieces.
The present church was built through the initiative of the late President Quezon's wife Doña Aurora, their family and friends with the cooperative effort of the townspeople. The church was proclaimed as one of the historical landmarks of the Philippines by the National Historical Institute on February 29, 2000.
QUEZON MEMORIAL PARK (Baler, Aurora) – The birthplace of the late President Manuel L. Quezon, it is situated at the heart of the town. This is where the house of the Quezon's once stood, a relatively small house made of wood, bamboo and nipa materials. In the event of time, the place was made the center of people's recreation and a place for remembering the good hero.
MUSEO DE BALER (Baler, Aurora) – Located in Quezon Park, it has the photo exhibit of Pres. Quezon and his family and other leaders of the province. Pictures of the past events during the American, Spanish and Japanese period showing the history and culture of Aurorans, scenic spots and ethnic tribes of the province are on display. There are also things to be read about the province and its people especially the Dumagat and Ilongot.
ERMITA HILL (Baler, Aurora) – Located at Brgy. Zabali, this plateau covers an area of about two hectares overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It is approximately six kilometers from the town of Baler via Kinalapan-Cemento road. It can also be reached by traversing the river of Tibag and is more or less 20 minutes walk from Castillo. During the Tromba Marina, a phenomenal tidal wave on Dec. 27, 1735, which swept the town of Baler, it was used by the old folks as their get-away. The place became their temporary resettlement, which they called "Kinagunasan", meaning "devastated". When the pirates demolished the whole town capturing more or less 450 people including three priest, one of whom was allegedly sold, the survivors escaped by fleeing and hiding in the forest around Ermita. Ermita Hill was identified as site for Philippine Civil Service Centennial Forest.
DONA AURORA ARAGON QUEZON HOUSE (Baler, Aurora)– Located at Rizal St. corner San Luis St., this house was re-build in honor of the wife of the late Commonwealth President Manuel L. Quezon. Doña Aurora who was known for her untiring efforts in providing social welfare services especially to the people of Aurora Province.
DIKALOYUNGAN MARKER (Baler, Aurora) – (as per written in the marker) "Sa pook na ito noong ika-3 ng Setyembre 1897 nagpunit ng sedula ang mga katipunerong kinabibilangan nina Teodorico Luna Novicio, Antero Amatorio, Norberto Valenzuela, Isabelo Palispis at iba pa sa mga lumagda sa isang manipestong nagpapahayag ng kanilang pagsalungat sa kapangyarihan ng Espanya. Sa pangyayaring ito nagsimula ang himagsikang Filipino sa distrito ng prinsipe (Aurora ngyon). Nagsilbi rin itong himpilan ng kilusang rebolusyonaryo"
ERMITA HILL (Casiguran, Aurora) – Situated at the northeastern end of Liwayway St. Poblacion 3, Casiguran, Aurora, it houses the statue of the alleged miraculous Virgin Mary who according to legendary beliefs stood as the residents protection during the height of the Muslim invasion of the coastal town.
DIBUT BAY (San Luis, Aurora) – This scenic and historical place mostly inhabited by Dumagats or Aetas is the landing site of the submarines USS Narwhal and USS Nautilus during WW II. Today, the wide Dibut Bay coast provides numerous sights such as an island formation appropriately named Birhen (meaning Virgin). It is an island sculpted by natural erosion resembling the figure of the Virgin Mary praying amidst the waves. While there are many other interesting spots in the area, much of its beauty is settled deep in the waters such as an abundance of marine life including the fast dwindling hammerhead shark and Mako shark. Certain areas also provide potential scenic dive spots for the experienced diver.

Fun in the sun for Sochi athletes (Photos)
February 13, 2014 6:45 PM
An Olympic skier competes wearing a tank top. Bare-chested spectators cheer on Canada during the men's ski slopestyle qualifier. Construction workers dress after taking a dip in the Black Sea. Is this Sochi or SoCal?
As residents of the eastern U.S. hunkered down for yet another winter storm, athletes and fans at the Winter Olympics donned sunglasses and stripped off layers. Temperatures in Sochi are expected to hit 63 degrees on Friday.
Here's a look at the balmy weather at the winter games.

Yes, there are more brutal regimes elsewhere, but we can not use that as an excuse to not debate and speak about our issues here.
Prof. Eduardo Bonilla-Silva
At the end of his lecture about racism in America, one of the students in the crowd felt it necessary to point out that America has made a lot of progress and has come a long way compared to other countries in the world. This was his response.

It is just us
look around the room
a bunch of broke muthuhfukkuhs who look just like you
and some of you keep looking at your clocks counting those minutes
'cause that boss is gonna' make you wake up at 6AM to wash those dishes
and tuition getting high
so you study all day
and the guy that washes dishes just graduated last May
same school
same major
same grades
same honor
and the Shift Manager's summa cum laude straight outta' Harvard
and the guy who owns the business took the business from his Dad
and his Dad built that business on a low cost land
using low cost hands
stolen man on stolen land
and his business keep on booming 'cause you keep looking at the hands of the tic toc click clock
"When's this show gonna' stop?"
but you hate your fuckin' job and you lovin' this Hip Hop
but, nah, 'cause if you stay here with the people lovin' music
you might come in late
and the boss is already mad over some stupid shit
and God forbid you don't get those good grades
B's and A's
if you just average Daddy's gonna' take your car away
and anyway he can't afford it
he washes dishes and parks cars
so I appreciate y'all coming out
I know that time's are hard!
Just us!
Just us!
Ain't no justice when it's just us! (repeat)
Welcome to the muthuhuhfukkin' moment when you realize the way we live here don't work
where the kids and the others where you live either off to a prison or get driven in a hearse
but worse
working like a muthuhfukkin' slave for that little bitty pay
I rather we die
that American dream is a lie
check to check just to get by
it's not a Black thing or a white thing
it's class division
'cause one day you gonna' have to explain this bullshit to your children!

From Congressional Fundraisers to NY Fashion Week to the streets of Bed Stuy, MISNOMER(S) brings more than one unique element to the genre of Hip Hop. On mic & violin, the sisters ooze style, wit & passion in their music & show. Even if you're not a fan of Hip Hop— you'll be a fan of Misnomer(S). Korean-American sisters born and bred in the Buffalo 'burbs, Knewdles (MC) and Sos (Violin) are aptly named Misnomer(S). Whether it be the Asian female rapper angle, the prodigal hip hop violinist factor, or the two hot sisters hook, it matters not— Misnomer(S) backs up any claims of novelty with a strong message, a "killer live show" (as the NY Post writes), and a level of musicianship rather rare in today's rap game. In the wake of the collapse of the music industry as we knew it, Misnomer(S) has taken it back to a grassroots level, performing over a hundred shows in the New York City area, planting roots in Brooklyn's most well known hip hop home, Bed Stuy, holding a monthly Youth Open Mic with the sponsorship of the Brooklyn Public Library, and continuing to be active in their various communities. At the same time, Misnomer(S) has kept an eye on the national stage, with credits that include starring in a national tv/print/internet campaign for Converse One Star/Target, a featured promo spot for the upcoming Def Jam RapStar video game, acting/performing roles and sole soundtrack credit for Nelson George's latest project "Left Unsaid", and self-producing & starring in a documentary-style reality show pilot, "Knewdles & Sos", based around their lives and music. With their self-produced debut album "American I(s)", Knewdles & Sos are only just getting started. Who knows where Misnomer(S) will surface next? http://knewdlesandsos.com/

We hoped the recent DHS announcement would bring relief to DREAM Act eligible youth by halting their deportations. However, because of the lack of a clear mechanism for its implementation, we continue to hear the stories of DREAMers being incarcerated, shackled and deported to countries they barely know.
Countless of DREAMers are being treated as criminals because of programs like Secure Communities, which serve as mechanisms for racial profiling. President Obama continuously speaks of his support for the DREAM Act. However, to show his support, he must use his executive power to protect DREAMers from deportation until Congress acts.
President Obama, issue an executive order to grant Administrative Relief to DREAMers and provide them with the opportunity to apply for work authorization!

The DC3kly Presents: "Batman Eternal," Week 12 – Batman Eternal #11-12
by Vince Ostrowski
On the Cover: A Guillem March & Tomeu Morey cover depicting Batgirl quite literally tangled up in battle with Scorpiana.
How is the Story Progressing?:
The two weeklies seem to be sticking to a rough 3-plotline-per-issue standard. That's not entirely true here, as this issue is bookended by a 4th setting involving Catwoman at the grave of her fence, Lola. This part is more of a tone-setter than anything that moves the plot forward, but it's a strong one.
Batgirl shows up in Rio De Janeiro this issue, on the hunt for Gonzolo Dominguez – a Brazilian soap opera star who she pegged at the scene of the train crash in Gotham that eventually put her Jim Gordon on trial. As the cover teased, she takes on Scopiana of the Club of Villains, who also wants Dominguez for some "unfinished business." Seems that he was only indirectly involved in the train crash – being the victim of some sort of gruesome plastic surgery-induced identity theft. This sequence is all the right kind of nuts, incorporating the camp of the telenovella world with the unique flavor of Bertram's art (more on that later). It's all very playful, with a scenery chewing villain in Scorpiana, to boot. Seeley makes time for a little bit of character work before its all over, alluding to Barbara's obsession with clearing her father's name.

BIG BROTHER returns for the tenth episode and also the fifth week of the fifteenth season. On tonight's episode we are going to resolve that houseguests mythical being WHO won HoH are nominating for eviction. Did you watch last week's Live Eviction and HoH competition? we have a tendency to did and that we recapped it right here for you!
On last week's show the removal company alliance began to crumble. Jeremy wished Elissa to travel home and strict all the members of his alliance vote her out. However, the opposite men failed to take kindly to being ordered around and went against his desires. By the top of the show Elissa was saved and Nick was blindsided and sent home. GinaMarie took his eviction arduous and sobbed and sobbed. At the HoH competition all the remaining houseguests worked arduous to win however at the top mythical being was victorious and she or he is that the HoH on.
On tonight's show mythical being has choices to create, this is often her week to be up to the mark of the house. i'm positive mythical being are targeting to induce Jeremy out, however this is often shot thus you ne'er apprehend. when Nick's eviction last week GinaMarie had an enormous drama fest wherever she sobbed and sobbed and that i wished to travel all the way through the tv and slap her. Apparently when last week's show she conjointly had alittle of a meltdown. There was conjointly lots of racial slurs and that we square measure speculative if shot can air the coverage or omit it. we are going to resolve tonight.
GinaMarie is upset that Nick is gone. Elissa thanks America and tells them she loves them. GinaMarie continues to sob in Howard's arms (time to prevent now) GinaMarie heads to the toilet and continues to sob she tells Aaryn she doesn't wish to be within the house while not Nick.
GinaMarie comes within the space and starts screaming and tell everybody they're all stupid and she or he needs everybody to vote her off next week. She calls everybody losers and scrubs. She then tells everybody she is from NYC and that they will bring it. She calls them cockroaches. She goes batshit crazy.
Spencer says the removal company isn't any a lot of – he feels Jeremy was putt everybody underneath an excessive amount of pressure. Spencer liked the pitch mythical being created to him to induce eliminate Nick. Spencer tells Howard that he's 100% on his aspect, however they might be comfortable with Elissa on their aspect. Howard tells Spencer that he's still 50/50 concerning departure the removal company.
Jeremy thinks it's a miserable moment that mythical being won HoH however he's not dropping. mythical being hugs Elissa and tells her she isn't happening the block. Elissa says that they're about to amendment the energy within the house from negative to positive. Jeremy comes in and tells mythical being that he's thunderstruck by her game play.
Meanwhile Aaryn and Kaitlin speak and Aaryn tells her that Helen's arrange is to induce eliminate all the robust players. GinaMarie comes in crying once more (ughh offer Maine a break) it looks she like Nick, unfortunate Nick failed to like her. Aaryn comforts her and tells her that Nick was a tremendous person. Aaryn says at now she doesn't wish to be within the house any longer.
Aaryn asks Jessie if next week she's going to be taking part in on her aspect. Kaitlin claims she had Jessie back and she or he isn't excited at what Jessie did. Aaryn and Kaitlin square measure stealing Jessie's bed. Jessie leaves the area with Judd and Aaryn takes the pad of Candice's bed and removes the bed garments and throws her garments everywhere the place. Aaryn isn't terribly nice.
Elissa comes back to her space and lies on the bed and Kaitlin follows and lies on her bed. Jessie asks her to induce off, she leaves pissed. Jeremy comes and lies on Jessie's bed she asks him to induce off.
Candice comes in and finds her bed flipped off and every one her garments square measure on the ground. Candice is upset and tells Aaryn. Aaryn starts to speak ghetto to her and roast of her. Howard walks in and Candice tells him that Aaryn flipped her bed. GinaMarie gets up and gets in Candice's face. GinaMarie says to Candice, "What you about to do bring the black out." Howard lifts Candice up and takes her out of the area and tells her to come back down.

Book Description:
In The Double Mirror, the author's personal history-- as a student of the late Tibetan master Chogyam Trungpa, known for his unconventional lifestyle and "crazy wisdom" teaching style-- is the framework for an incisive and eloquent examination of a profound spiritual journey. Writing both from a critical perspective and from his direct experience of Vajrayana practice, the author look at Buddhist tantric teachings and practices and their expressions in Vajradhatu, Trungpa's organization. While discussing how the institution may sometimes function like a "cult," Butterfield nonetheless experiences Buddhist tantra as an authentic system of profound spiritual transformation.The Double Mirror explores the effects of Buddhist practice on personality, autonomy, perception, and health, and discusses what Buddhism has to offer American. With skeptical intelligence, Butterfield illuminates the stages, teachings, and assumptions of the Tibetan Buddhist path, offering a frank and insightful portrayal of the ideal and reality of spiritual life.

Marine Park
Marine Park is the name of a neighborhood and a public park in the New York City borough of Brooklyn, that lies between Mill Basin and Gerritsen Beach. The neighborhood is mostly squared off in area by Gerritsen Avenue, Flatbush Avenue, Avenue U and Kings Highway. The eponymous park is within the neighborhood. The neighborhood is largely made up of ethnic groups such as Italians, Irish, Greeks, and Jews. The area is part of Brooklyn Community Board 18.[1]
The neighborhood is situated around Gerritsen Inlet, the westernmost inlet of Jamaica Bay. During the last 5,000 years strips of sand were deposited by ocean currents. These beach strips form a surf-barrier and allow salt marshes to thrive:
...Gerritsen Creek was a freshwater stream that once extended about twice as far inland as it does today. Around 1920 the creek north of Avenue U was converted into an underground storm drain. Yet it continues to supply the salt marsh with fresh water, which helps the marsh support a wide range of organisms. ...[2]
The area was a hunting and fishing ground for Native Americans from the nearby village of Keshawchqueren. Pits for cooking and preparing food dating from 800 to 1400 AD were uncovered in Marine Park, along with deer and turtle bones, oyster shells, and sturgeon scales. In the 17th century, the Dutch began to settle in the area, which had similarities to the marshland and coastal plains of the Netherlands. The land proved to be fairly good farmland and there was an abundance of clams, oysters, and game from the region as well.
...Fearing that the relatively pristine marshland around Gerritsen Creek would be destroyed, Frederick B. Pratt and Alfred T. White offered the city 150 acres (0.6 km2) in the area for use as a park in 1917. After a seven-year delay the City accepted the offer. The prospect of a new park inspired developers to erect new homes in the area and, in the year 1926, form the organization, Marine Park Civic Association, although park improvements were slow to follow. Fill deposited in the marshlands in the 1930s and now land purchases increased the park's area to 1,822 acres (7 km2) by 1937. That year the Board of Aldermen named the site Brooklyn Marine Park...[2]
In the 18th century George Washington made a stop for several days on the land nearby. There was a gristmill on the water at the time; in 1938, the mill burned down to the water level, leaving only the low tide wood pilings across the water, which can be clearly seen to this day. In the mid-20th century the area was abused by trash and abandoned cars. At one point it became a landfill and trash piled up to 60 feet (18 m) in certain areas. After a massive cleanup effort in the 1990s the area was restored to its former glory, with exception of a few rusty car parts riddling the area, and teens littering and causing arson to the dry tall phragmite from time to time.
In the early 20th century, as industrialization swept the nation, developers made plans to turn Jamaica Bay into a port and prepared to dredge Rockaway channel to allow large ships into the proposed harbor. Speculators anticipated a real estate boom and bought land along the Jamaica Bay waterfront. However, donors turned the land over to the city with the stipulation that it be turned into a public park instead.
In 2007, Marine Park had a population of 86,253.[citation needed] Marine Park is mostly made up of middle-class residents of various ethnic groups, including mostly Irish, then those of Italian and Greek heritage.[citation needed] The neighborhood celebrates many Irish Catholic traditional festivals.[citation needed]
Park of the same name[edit]
Marine Park is a public park located in the neighborhood of Marine Park. Its 798 acres (3.2 km2) surround the westernmost inlet of Jamaica Bay, and most of the park's land was donated to New York City to be turned into public park land by the Whitney family in 1920 and by Frederic B. Pratt and Alfred Tredway White, who jointly donated 150 acres (0.61 km2) in 1917. The land donated consists of the area between the current day Fillmore Avenue and Gerritsen Avenue and East 38th Street. Originally almost two thousand acres (8 km²), over half of which has been donated to the National Park Service as part of the Gateway National Recreation Area, the park is mainly a fertile salt marsh which is supplied with freshwater from Gerritsen Creek. Marine Park, surrounded by the neighborhood it is named after, consists of recreational park areas and the Salt Marsh Nature Center, where myrtle warblers, grasshopper sparrows, cottontail rabbits, ring-necked pheasants, horseshoe crabs, and oyster toadfish can be found.
The park used to be a fishing ground for the village of Keshawchqueren. With new land purchases in the 1930s, the park grew to 1822 acres (7.4 km²) by 1937. That same year, the Board of Aldermen named the site "Brooklyn Marine Park".
Recreational facilities were built in the decades to follow, including the Pratt-White athletic field (1939) that was dedicated to the two fathers of Marine Park. A 210-acre (0.85 km2) golf course opened in 1963, and the John V. Lindsay Model Airport was dedicated in 1971. New ballfields were opened in 1979 and named for baseball-loving NYPD Officer Rocco Torre in 1997. Nature trails established along Gerritsen Creek in 1984-85 invite parkgoers to observe a wealth of flora and fauna. Ongoing improvements at the end of the 20th century include the reconstruction of basketball, tennis, and bocce courts; of baseball fields; and of Lenape Playground at Avenue U. A new nature center opened in 2000. The Carmine Carro Community Center, named for Carmine Carro, a local activist and park advocate who served as president for the Marine Park Civic Association, opened in March 2013.[3] The building's "green" elements include solar panels, a geothermal heating and cooling system, and a green roof. Because of these energy-saving features, the Parks Department is seeking LEED Silver certification for the building.[4] The park's playground, several sports fields, and 0.83 mile-long running path were all built on the ancient Keshawchqueren burial ground.[5]

Barros camp launches biographical web video
ByGintautas Dumcius, News Editor
Aug. 7, 2013
John Barros's mayoral campaign on Wednesday launched a biographical web video that it said it plans to promote on newspaper and ethnic media websites. The campaign is also purchasing ad space on Twitter and Facebook, it said.
Barros is the former executive director of the Dudley Street Neighborhood Initiative and stepped down from his post on the 7-member School Committee to run for mayor earlier this year.

Happy day #100, 21/05/2014: the daisies in our garden never fail to make me happy.
So I guess I made it. 100happydays are now over. To be honest, I didn't find this 'challenge' too hard and I really enjoyed thinking about what was going to be my happy moment each day. Not all days were actually happy and sometimes I kind of struggled to find something, but I found out that there was always one thing that did the job. Not all pictures always represented what made me happiest on those days either but it can be really hard to take a picture of these things as they might just be impalpable.
Nevertheless, this was a great experience and I might think of starting it all over again soon. Or just post a picture when there was actually something really cool that made me happy. We'll see :)
You'll hear from me soon!

The West Virginia Mountaineers are 102 days from kicking off the 2014 season against Alabama on Aug. 30th. With over three months until the regular season, questions abound about the program, including who the starting quarterback will be. Today, ESPN released their 2014 Preseason College Football Power Index in which WVU comes in at No. 56.
ESPN's Stats and Info has come up with a scientific way of ranking all 128 FBS teams based upon the previous year, returning players, new players and how good the offense, defense and special teams is expected to be this year. You can find a detailed look at how the rankings are determined HERE.
While there are questions at quarterback and along the offensive line, the backfield is loaded. Incoming transfer Rushell Shell, Dustin Garrison, Andrew Buie, Wendell Smallwood and Dreamius Smith could combine for a very talented backfield. ESPN ranks WVU has having the 65th best offense in the nation.
The experienced defense will be looked upon to keep WVU in games much as it did last season before injuries decimated the unit's depth. The incoming recruiting class replete with junior college transfers will give much needed depth. New defensive line coach Damon Cogdell is tasked with replacing the departed Will Clarke and Shaq Rowell. Tony Gibson and new hire Tom Bradley are giving the huge task of stopping the potent offenses prevalent in the Big 12. Isiah Bruce, Nick Kwiatkoski, Jared Barber, Wes Tonkery, Brandon Golson and Shaq Petteway bring plenty of experience to the unit. ESPN sees WVU as having the 44th best defense.
ESPN believes the special teams unit is the weakest of the team, and places them at 90th.
The Mountaineers are ranked only above Big 12 foes Iowa St. (62) and Kansas (83).
No. 57 on that list? Marshall.

Entering play Friday afternoon, the Chicago Cubs (4-10) have the second-lowest winning percentage in all of Major League Baseball, ahead of only the Arizona Diamondbacks (4-14). Despite keeping the majority of its contests close late, the club has struggled to put away opponents and bullpen struggles have cost Chicago several late-inning leads.
Returning home today, Ricky Renteria and his club will look to right the ship against the Cincinnati Reds (6-9), sending right-hander Jeff Samardzija (0-1, 1.29 ERA) to the hill. The tall righty has been one of the bright spots for the team early this year, but the team's offense failed to plate any runs in his first 20 innings of the year.
Cincinnati counters with a right-hander of its own in the form of Alfredo Simon (1-1, 1.20 ERA), who tossed a career-high eight innings on Saturday against Tampa Bay.
First pitch is slated for 1:20 p.m. CT at the Friendly Confines. In the Chicagoland area, the game can be heard on WGN 720 AM and will also be shown on WGN and MLB Network.
Here are today's starting lineups:

The Cellist, Carl Kricheldorf
It's often a mistake to trust paintings as faithful records of events.
Shocking as it may seem that Shelley's body is being cremated in the open in Louis Edouard Fournier's 1889 The Funeral of Shelley, it's actually a prettier picture than the funeral itself.
I won't appall you with the details—Edward John Trelawny, a friend of Shelley's and the closest figure in the trio by his body, gave a thorough enough account in Recollections of the Last Days of Shelley and Byron—but suffice it to say that both his drowning and his cremation took a greater toll on his body than the picture reflects.
Of the recognizable mourners, Trelawny's the only one actually to have been present the entire time (by his own account, anyway). Leigh Hunt, the white-haired man beside him, had stayed in the carriage. Byron left not long after it began. And, for reasons of contemporary manners, Mary Shelley—the woman kneeling on the far left—hadn't attended at all.
Plus, the day was miserably hot, not to mention sunny.
Besides that, though. I mean, it's practically the same. Really.

Adapting Your Message to Your Audience
In Chapter 1, we learned that our message needs to convey to you by deflecting the focus away from I, we, our, us. Chapter 2 of Business and Administrative Communication, titled "Adapting Your Message to Your Audience" focuses on an individual's personality traits and some suggested points to pay attention to that makes them more receptive to your message. It also identifies the various audiences that you message must reach, convince, or get through.
You will find various personality test links in this mindmap that help you understand what makes you tick and, in viewing other personality traits, it can help you understand how others receive information, or maybe understand why some people rub you the wrong way.
Reminder: in order to view all the details, notes, and links of the mindmap, you will want to go to MindJet and download the viewer. Also the information here is merely snippets of the extensive explanations and examples that are given in the book and would encourage you to include in your library.

- 2011
Derbyshire-born singer and fiddler Hardy made her name with a brace of traditional folk albums and one remarkable original, "Three Black Feathers". Here, she takes a creative leap on a dozen self-penned works played with assorted members of Scotland's Burns Unit collective. Hardy's at her most comfortable on trad-sounding narratives such as "The Herring Girl" and "Flowers of May", and the team give "Walk it With You" a deft, country turn. Folk-rock forays like "Good Friday" sound clumsy by comparison, and while songs such as "Labyrinth" intrigue, Hardy's delivery doesn't always do her larkish vocal talents justice. A more complete blend of ancient and modern lies just down the lane.

For each release a new James Bond film, there are certain parts of the project that are anticipated almost as much as the movie itself. The filmmakers announce not only the trailers, but also the car Bond will be driving, the women he will be bedding/battling, and the new theme song that will hopefully set the mood for the next phase of his tumultuous career. Moments ago, the new theme from immensely popular Grammy Award winning chanteuse Adele debuted online.
One listen and you get the impression that you might have slipped back into the 1960s. Adele's sultry, smoky vocals set the stage for James's next roll in the deep (I have no idea what that means either). And if you want to get an inkling of what the name Skyfall is all about, the video above spells it out for you. Or, at the very least, it shows you the lyrics as she sings… just for you readin' types. It's also perfect for those of you who love start impromptu karaoke with songs you've never heard before right there at your work or home computer.
Skyfall stars Daniel Craig and Javier Bardem and arrives in theaters worldwide November 9th.

Asked 12/05/2012 by Georgia73
Hello: Thank you for your question about Bisquick and Gluten Free Bisquick.
The ingredients in the two mixes are very different, and cannot be used interchangeaby. It would be best for you to look for a similar recipe to the one you want to make, but that calls for regular Bisquick. You can search on bettycrocker.com, and often find a similar recipe.
Answered 12/06/2012 by Marcia-BettyCrocker
Please make Bisquick aluminum free. I would really like to use it. I always liked bisquick, but now have to be gluten free. I really need to cook with Bisquick. Thanks
Where can I buy Gluten free bisquick in Winnipeg, manitoba? I searched and searched in Winnipeg everywhere but can't find. Please help me..

Midwest #17: Brian's Loft
Name: Brian
Location: Chicago
Size: 541 sf
Rent/Own: Own
What is the advantage of SMALL? There are so many reasons. Lower taxes / fees along with low utilities are on the top of the list. Also, as we both travel quite a bit for work, it's easy to clean up and make presentable upon arrival. When we go to sell and buy a home, it will be small as well. We've come to realize the advantages of not having a large home - It's something that's become so ridiculous over the years.
What's your favorite resource for your home?
Greenmaker Supply and the home tours on apartmenttherapy.com
What is your one favorite element in your small, cool home?
It's a tie between the lofted area, our balcony and our kitchen. The lofted space is such a relaxing nook to have, but the kitchen is a pleasure to work in and has made us eat at home so much more. The balcony is great for absolutely amazing sunsets.
37 Comments
I would have liked to have seen the bedroom, and/or what seems to be a workspace in the loft, rather than your view at night.
Great colors, and I love the beams in the loft.
The staircase and view are both awesome!
In Toronto, where I'm from, that staircase would be too steep to pass code even with the railing. That said, if you put it in and not the builder, then I guess it's a non-issue.
Wow this has to take the cake of shots-that-make-voting-accurately-astronomically-difficult. Your kitchen shot and living room shot are great, but a picture of your floor? And your view?
Anyway, I would not mind seeing more of your place do you get a 'cool' from me.
I thought we might have a contender here...only to be annoyed yet again by poor picture choices.
there should be a bit more rules in this contest. like not showing a picture of a sunset/sunrise?. and instead of focusing up close on certain parts, just show the whole room.
i second that, trixie. from what i can actually see, it looks cool, but the sunrise? the floor? we couldve gotten some really neat (titular) loft shots, or the bedroom.
I really liked what I saw but I can't vote super cool with a picture of the floor and sunrise! How does that show us your apartment at all??
i agree, I'd like more shots of rooms as a whole. but i still voted it "cool" because i love the use of color to delineate different spaces. i am inspired and took a couple of mental notes for my condo. anyways, i could accept a picture of the view if you had really large windows and the view was a large part of your interior "landscape." but I don't see any pictures of any windows...
Nice pics..but it would have been nice to see the loft area up close. Could have done without the picture of the floor and the view...and have more pics of the space. I voted cool because I liked what I saw.
I LOVE the round ceiling pendants, do you know where they're from?
Something about this place isn't gel-ing. It's like you have a couple of nice things sprinkled throughout, but the overall effect gets watered down b/c of the clutter and so-so elements like the cabinets. And I agree that the floor and sunset shots were totally pointless.
OK, here goes. That view from the rooftop was a TOTAL waste. Unless you're adding all of Chicago to your sq. footage, which would put you over the size limit by just a bit. This one seems rough around the edges to me. It needs some re-organizing and some de-cluttering. And the photo of the floor [rolling eyes]. Another lost opportunity.
one better wear slip resistant shoes on that staircase.
What A Cool Space!!
hey, if people want to waste shots on vignettes and views, let 'em. it just puts them out of the running for the finals because - surprise! - i can't judge your space based on what just your floor and dresser leg look like, or the sunset that i can see here every day myself.
Yeah...I liked what I saw, but....the pictures? Geez.
ok-maybe it's just me...but bi-fold doors don't belong anywhere in a room that's entered in a contest having anything to do with "cool"...
I think this might be a case of "you have a great apartment". I think I would have been equally wow-ed if I saw the place completely empty.
Sorry to disappoint guys... we would've loved to submit more photos, but we were about to miss the deadline (for shame) and sent what we had. Trust me when I say... we have more to offer now... Thanks for all the comments though. We are just happy to participate.
Babbling - the pendant lights are Nelson Bubble Lamps from Modernica. We scored when they were closing their Chicago showroom.
Mr. Dangerous - the Bunny Cookie Jar is by Japanese artist Momoyo Torimitsu and found at Willow (in Ukrainian Village). My personal fave.
DesignGod - agreed... it really isn't a design element, but it is the view from our balcony and we think it's pretty and adds to the pleasantness of our space.
Do you have permanant scars on your shins from the stairs? :-)
They do look nice.
We have a winner!
Hello everyone - it's Brian and this is my place. I have to chime and add to what my girlfriend (plain-girl) said-
Not to make excuses, but I was out of town for three weeks (for work) and on top of that, my nice digital SLR was stolen - hence the issues with taking better pics. I had to use my el cheapo 10 year old 1. something mega pixel instead. As a big fan of AT, I'm quite upset with how the shots turned out, and that I didn't have more time. My apologies.
Regarding the loft/stairs - is was designed and built by David Green at Iron & Wire in Chicago. He's amazing and I highly recommend him for anything you need done w/ metal. I wasn't sure about the stairs when I saw them on paper, but turned out absolutely perfect in pitch, spacing, width , etc (no haven't hit my shins once). The hand railing was inspired by a mid-century building we saw on an tour of Palm Springs. We didn't change cabinets, etc as the budget wasn't there and they're perfectly fine maple (at least they're not oak). By adding the Icestone counter and stainless hardware, the kitchen came to life (for us at least). The Bi-fold doors are not our favorite, but did take the ones out of the bedroom and put up Marimeko fabric on a rod make of electrical conduit. Yes, I know - I should have put up a picture!
If anyone knows how pictures can be changed, I would be glad to update them. I'm planning on buying another camera tomorrow morning... Anyone?
There is no way you can miss the bathroom picture.
Not the staring-the-floor picture.
I love the stairs. I love the credenza and the way you displayed the Catherine Holm bowl *droll* with other things.
Its Brian again -
I forgot to mention, check out the blue ball bearing at the top of the stairs. This so they can swing around at any angle you want for future redecorating of such a small space. The base is made out of 8 bamboo layers and is felted on the bottom for ease of moving.
Those stairs are pretty cool, and it makes me want to see more. At least they showed their kitchen!
What are those shelves in your living room? They look like just what I want for mine.
Should have waited until next time around when the stars aligned and you could have put your best images into the contest. (Not worth breaking up with the girl friend over this.)
Jenninfer in sf - the shelves are elfa shelving from Container Store. They're the best bang for the buck by far. We used silver w/ walnut shelves. If you can, wait for their big annual elfa sale. I believe it's 30% off!
I really like the kitchen, but the living room seems *so* cramped. The lounge looks like it's 2 feet away from the fireplace. I used to live in a 350 square foot studio that felt much more spacious than this place.
What's in the loft, by the way? I notice there's a desk next to the fireplace, so I'm guessing not an office space? It would be cool if it was a larger living room space. I think I'd prefer if that was the sleeping area and it was open underneath. It's too bad that the fireplace sticks out into the room, and that the bedroom takes up so much space at the expense of the living room.
Cool Staircase. I wish I could move in tomorrow.
I love the lounge and the rocker next to each other instead of a couch. And I love the stairs, altho navigating them tipsy might be a bit treacherous. I like that you went the non-standard route of the Eames chairs without the eiffel base - which would have made the kitchen seem really busy.
What I like most, tho, is that you focused on really good key pieces and made them work together in the small space, rather than a huge space filled with lots of crap. Thats the essence of this contest and i think this could be a contender!
The floor?
the elfa shelves work here. love the kitchen dining table. do u have a sofa?
Brian here again -
The floor is marmoleum.
Modfan - thanks for the kind words. So few understand how a couch just isn't always the answer.
the kitchen rules!
I don't get the loft. What's up there? I feel like I'm missing something....
What a great staircase!

44 Ground Access to Major Airports by Public Transportation Table 2-4. Percentage of air travelers who are local residents. More than 55% 50% to 55% 40% to 49% Less than 40% Sacramento (69%) Dallas/Ft. Worth (54%) San Jose (49%) Phoenix (38%) Boston (59%) Chicago O'Hare (54%) Baltimore/Washington (47%) Tampa (38%) Seattle (57%) Oakland (52%) Salt Lake City (45%) Washington Dulles (33%) Atlanta (50%) San Francisco (43%) New Orleans (28%) Los Angeles (42%) Reagan National (29%) Fort Lauderdale (41%) Orlando (27%) Denver (41%) Las Vegas (17%) Portland (40%) San Diego (40%) SOURCE: TCRP Report 62, Jacobs Consultancy. area and who live close enough to access the airport using ground transportation. Airline passen- gers who are not local residents are visitors who do not live within the market area of the airport they are using. Resident airline passengers are more likely to have (1) a private vehicle, (2) more information on airport access, and (3) more familiarity with regional traffic patterns and trans- portation options. More than 50% of the airline passengers at seven airports surveyed are local residents. These airports include those that serve as large airline connecting hubs (Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago O'Hare, and Atlanta), plus airports located on the East and West Coasts (Boston, Oakland, and Seattle). The proximity to leisure markets or vacation destinations influences the passenger pro- file at airports serving fewer than 50% residents (e.g., San Francisco, Los Angeles, Ft. Lauderdale, Tampa, Las Vegas, and Orlando). National Patterns of Access to Airports and Terminals Most of the airport ground access data presented in this report were collected by the airports themselves (or regional planning agencies associated with those airports). However, a nationwide view of access patterns to terminals can be obtained from the American Travel Survey (ATS), which described about 365 million annual total ground access trips to and from U.S. airports in the survey year of 1995. In the ATS, these trips are categorized by whether they occur in the traveler's area of residence or in the non-home portion of the longer distance trip. In this report, travelers in the first category are described as the "resident" market and those in the second cate- gory are described as the "non-resident" market for purchase of ground transportation services. Terminal Access at the Home End of the Trip Getting airline passengers to access the airport with public modes seems to be more difficult than getting passengers on intercity bus and intercity rail to access their terminals with public modes. Looking at the mode of ground access selected from a national aggregate perspective, ground access modes to all three kinds of terminals (i.e., bus, train, air) are dominated by the private automobile. In this resident market, those accessing a bus or a train have a significantly higher propensity to select a mode other than the private automobile to get to the bus or train terminal, with combined mode shares for taxi, limousine, and public mode at nearly 30% market share. Figure 2-5 reveals that bus, van, limousine, and rail capture about 20% of the market to long- distance bus and rail terminals, but capture only 8% of national travel to airports, excluding taxis.

Talk:Wikidata/Notes/Inclusion syntax v0.4
Property aliases[edit]
The use of the identifier of the property like {{#property:P36}} is more stable as the label like {{#property:capital}}. To improve stability it should also work for aliases like {{#property:alias of capital}}. In case a label changes, we could add the old label as alias. In that case the Wikipedia templates and modules still continue to function properly without the need to change it immediately. HenkvD (talk) 14:56, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
- You are correct that IDs are more stable than labels, and I would suggest to use IDs instead of labels -- but labels might be preferred due to their readability. It's a tradeoff. On the other hand, aliases are not necessarily unique, and thus we do not allow them for accessing values. Property labels thought are unique per language. --denny (talk) 14:45, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- "Property labels thought are unique per language." I'm curious, is that automatically enforced (so there can never be two "capital" properties in the same language)? Superm401 | Talk 05:10, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
- Yes it is enforced. --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk) 09:00, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
- "Property labels thought are unique per language." I'm curious, is that automatically enforced (so there can never be two "capital" properties in the same language)? Superm401 | Talk 05:10, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
access a different item by label[edit]
As labels are not unique, I assume you mean article title. --Zolo (talk) 11:07, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
Implement Copypaste.py as a parser function[edit]
Could be possible to integrate Copypaste.py tool (
here and here) as an inclusion parser function into mediawiki? The tool generates an interwiki list in wiki syntax from the Q number. Such function would be very helpful for Commons (until Commons will be integrated fully-fledged). Such syntax can be something like:
- {{#interwiki|Q183}}
- {{#interwiki|Germany}}
- {{#iw|de:Deutschland}}
--ŠJů (talk) 23:52, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Make inclusion human readable[edit]
Have a look at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Infoboxes_task_force#Make_embedding_data_in_wikipedia_human_readable --126.96.36.199 19:14, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
Refer to WP page links and titles?[edit]
Is it possible to return the links to Wikipedia pages and titles of those pages for items? This would be very helpful on commons, where we could use it in templates like Commons:Template:Portrait of and make image descriptions interlingual. --Jfhutson (talk) 20:52, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
Accessing qualifiers for statements[edit]
I added the actual version from wikidata to the dewiki article about Mozilla Firefox: https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mozilla_Firefox&diff=125417237&oldid=125385804 and want to get the qualifier that sais the Version is from 2013-12-10 as well. --Lbenedix (talk) 20:05, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
release a good inclusion syntax now, otherwise wikidata is not used in wikipedia and WILL CERTAINLY die! --220.127.116.11 08:10, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
- I'm going to concur here. I popped into Wikidata to experiment with adding population data just for my hometown, and see if I could incorporate it into the en.wikipedia article. I found that I could invoke the population number, but there is nothing about how to incorporate the "as of" date. Whether the capability isn't there, or whether it just isn't documented, the data can't be used on Wikipedia, since the population data would get updated, but the metadata about that population number is divorced from the data to which it applies. Vanisaac (talk) 09:57, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Vanisaac, can you explain this:
- The table tennis player de:Ma Long has a "current world ranking" number ("Aktueller Weltranglistenplatz") in the infobox, with ref
- Look at the wikitext, it's empty?
- Compare de:Vorlage:Infobox Tischtennisspieler and de:Modul:Wikidata
- Compare with the english en:Ma Long and wikitext
- Explain and discuss. --Atlasowa (talk) 11:21, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
Seeing that the discussion is way off track, I will reiterate the request to use qualifiers in Wikipedia. Is there a way to incorporate qualifiers in WP articles? Like Vanisaac, I want to use the "point in time" qualifier for population numbers. If this isn't possible yet, this functionality should be added! --P199 (talk) 16:16, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
- It is possible using Lua. --Lydia Pintscher (WMDE) (talk) 16:31, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
- I have zero experience with Lua programming. Can you make a new module for this? Thanks. --P199 (talk) 16:43, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
- It would be great to see an example of a Lua script operating to retrieve and display wikidata data on a wikipedia page. Where could we see this? --Genewiki123 (talk) 23:34, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- I have zero experience with Lua programming. Can you make a new module for this? Thanks. --P199 (talk) 16:43, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
Ahh question[edit]
So, {{#property:Pxxx}} will transclude into "" in two cases:
- The wikipedia article does not have a wikidata item.
- The wikipedia article has a wikidata item, but it does not have Pxxx property.
Is there a way to distinguish between the two, inside a wikipedia inclusion? Thanks Kotz (talk) 16:18, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
- Condition 1 is also a property (Wikimedia article)... Test that this property is defined. verdy_p (talk) 11:47, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
Properties of different items - redirects[edit]
The proposal to access properties of a different item doesn't deal with redirects. Can we suppose that non redirect page have its own item page and the statements will be included from the target page? Will even multiple redirect be fully functional? Or we need something like
{{#property:capital|of=Great Britain and Northern Ireland|noredirect}}
for a possible item page of the redirect page? --ŠJů (talk) 18:11, 17 August 2014 (UTC)

Report: Internet in Syria restored; Outage lasted 19.5 hours
Summary: The latest Internet downtime in Syria represents a depressing pattern in the war-torn region, according to Internet research firm Renesys.
Internet access in Syria appears to have been restored after a 19.5-hour outage, according to multiple Internet tracking agencies.
Umbrella Security Labs, the research arm of enterprise security firm OpenDNS, reported on Tuesday that there was a sharp drop in both inbound and outbound traffic from the war-torn country starting at approximately 6:45PM UTC.
Internet research firm Renesys confirmed that it also did not see "a flicker of activity" after that point until approximately 2:13PM UTC.
Here is what researchers mean in clear cut terms:
We haven't been able to successfully send a ping or a traceroute to any host inside Syria. Government websites, universities, domain name servers, core infrastructure routers, banks, businesses, DSL customers, smartphones: all silent.
Syria has repeatedly experienced Internet "blackouts" over the course of the last few years. Some of the incidents have been brief (less than an hour).
Back in November, the blackout lasted approximately two days, effectively cutting off the nation from the rest of the world.
In that case, both sides pointed fingers at each other as to whom was responsible. The regime of president Bashar al-Assad claimed that terrorists were "cutting cables."
But Renesys retorted at the time that the way in which Syria came back online suggested otherwise, but refrained from an accusation based on a lack of proper data.
This time, Renesys chief technology officer and co-founder James Cowie suggested in a blog post on Wednesday that this latest incident represents a potential pattern in the region:
In this case, however, what strikes me is the depressing sameness of the sequence of Syrian Internet disconnections. Just as in June 2011, July 2012, August 2012, and November 2012, the entire nation disappeared from the Internet in 30 seconds, as if a switch had been thrown. Everyone in the Twittersphere seems to share the same strange lack of perspective about these events — in the middle of the chaos and tragedy of civil war, why is anyone surprised when the Internet stops working? Isn't it actually more shocking and noteworthy that the Internet in Syria actually functions pretty well 360 days out of the year?

Greenpeace challenges Essar on defamation
Greenpeace India on Wednesday said it will submit sufficient evidence to prove that the defamation charges pressed against it by Essar are false and that all Greenpeace allegations against the company are indeed based on solid evidence.
The documents will be presented in Mumbai High Court within the stipulated two weeks, Greenpeace India said.
The company has filed a Rs. 500 crore legal suit in the Bombay High court against Greenpeace India and Mahan Sangharsh Samiti (MSS) --an organisation set up to defend the rights of those, who derive their livelihood from the Mahan forests .
The Bombay High Court has asked Greenpeace India to remove from its websites, posters, leaflets and pamphlets that alleged defamatory content against Essar Group.
"While we respect the observations of the court, we are confident we will prove all charges pressed by Essar wrong in the court of law. Right to protest is fundamental to democracy. We have protested in the most peaceful way and will defend our rights. It is not Greenpeace that is defaming the company but it is the company, their actions and their ways of doing business that is bringing shame on them," said Samit Aich, Executive Director of Greenpeace India.
The Essar defamation suit comes after 14 Greenpeace forest activists scaled the company's headquarters in Mahalakshmi last week and unfurled a giant banner that announced why Greenpeace was protesting against Essar.
Several villagers from Mahan area and youngsters from Mumbai had staged a dharna outside the entrance of the company's building protesting the proposed destruction of Mahan forests - a biodiversity rich forest in Singrauli, Madhya Pradesh by the company.
Along with the demand that Essar cancels its proposed coal mine in Mahan, Greenpeace India has also sought the sacking of Minister of Environment and Forest (MoEF) Veerapa Moily for his speedy clearances at the cost of the environment from the Prime Minister of the country.
Apart from slapping a Rs. 500 crore legal notice, the company has also pressed for gag order on Greenpeace on social and traditional news media and demanded the NGO to stay away from its premises.
Last week the Mumbai police had arrested 67 Greenpeace activists including members of the MSS and youngsters from Mumbai, who had participated in the protest outside Essar's building. All the activists have been granted bail by a Sub-divisional-magistrate's court in Mumbai.
