Thank you to our 2014 Golf Tournament Sponsors
The Army National Guard, Army Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, Air Force Reserve, and the Coast Guard Reserve announced a decrease in activated National Guard members and reservists this week, while the Navy Reserve and the Air National Guard announced an increase of activated National Guard members and reservists. The net collective result is a decrease of 485 activated National Guard members and reservists in comparison to last week.
At any given time, services may activate some units and individuals while deactivating others, making it possible for these figures to either increase or decrease. The total number currently on active duty from the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 21,294; Navy Reserve, 3,292; Marine Corps Reserve, 1,088; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 6,749; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 295. This brings the total National Guard and reserve personnel who have been activated to 32,718, including both units and individual augmentees.
Today, the Department of Defense released a report that documents the damaging cuts to military forces, modernization, and readiness that will be required if defense budgets are held at sequester-levels in the years beyond fiscal 2015. This report fulfills a commitment made by Secretary Hagel to provide details on the effects of these undesirable budget cuts.
As the report says, sequester level budgets would result in continued force-level cuts across the military services. The Army would be reduced to 420,000 active duty soldiers along with 315,000 in the Guard and 185,000 in the Reserve. The Marine Corps would drop to 175,000 active duty personnel. The Air Force would have to eliminate its entire fleet of KC-10 tankers and shrink its inventory of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The Navy would be forced to mothball 6 destroyers and retire an aircraft carrier and its associated air wing, reducing the carrier fleet to ten.
Modernization would also be significantly slowed. Compared to plans under the fiscal 2015 budget, the department would buy eight fewer ships in the years beyond fiscal 2016-- including one fewer Virginia-class submarines and three fewer DDG-51 destroyers – and would delay delivery of the new carrier John F. Kennedy (CVN-79) by two years. The services would acquire 17 fewer Joint Strike Fighters, five fewer KC-46 tankers, and six fewer P-8A aircraft.
There would also be sharp cutbacks in many smaller weapons programs and in funding for military construction. In addition, the department would invest about $66 billion less in procurement and research funding compared with levels planned in the fiscal 2015 budget. The report notes that sequester-level budgets would worsen already existing readiness shortfalls across the force and delay needed training to prepare the joint force for full-spectrum operations.
Overall, sequester-level cuts would result in a military that is too small to fully meet the requirements of our strategy, thereby significantly increasing national security risks both in the short- and long-term. As Secretary Hagel has said, under sequester-level budgets, we would be gambling that our military will not be required to respond to multiple major contingencies at the same time.

Following backlash from his statements in front of the Senate Armed Services subcommittee on personnel April 9, Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps Mike Barrett is working to clarify his position in a written letter to Marines.
"The commissioning of USS Coronado is a celebration of the history of the great city of Coronado and its lasting relationship with our Navy and Marine Corps. The sailors aboard LCS 4 will bring this mighty warship to life with their skill and dedication, honoring her namesake and our nation for years to come," said Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus. "When she sets sail for distant shores, Coronado, and ships like her, will have a vital role maintaining freedom of the seas, and providing naval presence in the right place, all the time."
Cmdr. Shawn Johnston, a native of North Carolina, is the commanding officer of the ship's Gold Crew and will lead the core crew of 40 officers and enlisted personnel. The 2,790-ton Coronado was built by Austal USA Shipbuilding in Mobile, Ala. The ship is 417 feet in length, has a waterline beam of 100 feet, and a navigational draft of 15 feet. The ship uses two gas turbine and two diesel engines to power four steerable water jets to speeds in excess of 40 knots.
Designated LCS 4, Coronado is the fourth littoral combat ship and the second of the Independence variant. Named for Coronado, Calif., it is the third Navy ship to bear the name. USS Coronado (LCS 4) will be outfitted with reconfigurable mission packages and focus on a variety of mission areas including mine countermeasures, surface warfare and anti-submarine warfare. The first USS Coronado (PF 38) was a patrol frigate and served as a convoy escort during World War II. The subsequent Coronado (AGF 11) was designed as an Austin Class Amphibious Transport Dock (LPD) and was reconfigured to be an Auxiliary Command ship (AGF) in 1980 and subsequently served as the commander, Middle East Force flagship, then the commander, U.S. Sixth Fleet flagship in the Mediterranean, and subsequently the commander, U.S. 3rd Fleet flag ship in the Eastern Pacific Ocean prior to decommissioning in 2006.
Dear Secretary Sebelius:
We write to you regarding the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry's (ATSDR) ongoing work regarding the historic water contamination at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina and its designation as a National Priority List site. We remain significantly concerned about many aspects of ATSDR's ongoing work on this very serious matter.
We have significant concerns regarding ATSDR's critical relationship with the Camp Lejeune Community Assistance Panel (CAP.) This panel has proven invaluable in assisting with research for past ATSDR studies and is a vital link to the affected community. In the past few months, we have heard growing concerns about the level of communication from ATSDR to the CAP. While we understand that the most recent leadership change at ATSDR contributed somewhat to a delay in scheduling the quarterly CAP meeting at ATSDR, we remain concerned that ATSDR has not been consulting openly and in a spirit of collaboration with current CAP members and has in some instances displayed a lack of urgency in regard to filling vacancies on the CAP.
Furthermore, since the departure ofthe last permanent Director of ATSDR, there has been what we see as a growing lack of trust and cooperation between ATSDR and the CAP. This is concerning to us because the CAP is the formal forum designed for the affected community to express its concerns and ATSDR has previously stated that the agency needs to have a trusting and constructive relationship with the CAP. For reasons we cannot yet discern, the desire for open communication seems to have waned within ATSDR in recent months. For example, in Dr. Frieden's September 16, 2013 letter to us, he stated that "ATSDR plans to revise the 1997 Public Health Assessment (PHA) based on available data and input from the Camp Lejeune Community Assistance Panel." We are dismayed that the CAP has not yet been consulted on there-issuance of the PHA for Camp Lejeune or included in the discussions underway at ATSDR regarding the PHA.
It is our sincere expectation that repairing relationships with the CAP will be a top priority for Dr. Tanja Popovic and that Dr. Frieden will ensure the community continues to have a voice in future ATSDR activities related to Camp Lejeune.
Another significant area of concern pertains to what we see as a compelling case for ATSDR to conduct a cancer incidence study of the population at Camp Lejeune. Last month, we met with Dr. Tanja Popovic, Acting Director of ATSDR, regarding the recent studies her agency released and a cancer incidence study. Such a study would be critically important to help Lejeune veterans and the American people get the best possible scientific understanding of the contamination that occurred at the base. While we were very pleased that Dr. Popovic committed to responding to us within four weeks regarding the way forward on a cancer incidence study of the population at Camp Lejeune, we were also dismayed that Dr. Popovic took the position that ATSDR does not have the authority or expertise to conduct a cancer incidence study. Conducting public health studies ofthis nature on National Priority List sites was precisely the reason the agency was created.
The water contamination at Camp Lejeune is likely the largest environmental contamination in the history of this nation. It is the responsibility of our government to provide a full and complete account of what happened. Therefore, we are concerned that Dr. Popovic suggested a non-governmental organization would be better suited to assess the feasibility of a cancer incidence study and possibly conduct the study itself. Given the nature and history of this contamination and the disturbing findings of recent studies released by ATSDR, both Congress and the public reasonably expect the government to conduct this type of study and for your department to leverage its resources toward that end. Furthermore, we respectfully request answers to the following questions outlined below.
2) Does ATSDR have access to sufficient gov't personnel and resources to fulfill the agency's statutory obligation to conduct epidemiological studies that are warranted given that serious exposures occurred and the agency's own studies indicated that health effects have been observed? If not, please provide a detailed response of the resources the agency needs or provide us with resources resident in other agencies within your department.
3) Has ATSDR previously worked with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) or the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) on public health studies, including a cancer incidence study? If so, please provide a list of specific studies on which the two agencies have collaborated, as well as a description of the inter-agency process used in these ....for full letter click here
The letter was signed by:
Senator Kay Hagan, Richard Burr Congressman Dingell
Today the president released his Fiscal Year 2015 budget request for the Department of Defense. This defense budget contains the recommendations I announced last week and is responsible, balanced and realistic. It matches our strategy to our resources.
This budget also supports - and is informed by - our updated defense strategy outlined in the recently completed 2014 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR), which is also being released today. This QDR defines the historic transition unfolding throughout our defense enterprise. As we move off the longest continuous war footing in our nation's history, this QDR explains how we will adapt, reshape, and rebalance our military for the challenges and opportunities of the future.
President Barack Obama today sent Congress a proposed defense budget of $495.6 billion in discretionary budget authority to fund base defense programs in fiscal year 2015.
The request is $0.4 billion less than the enacted FY 2014 appropriation and is consistent with the current budget caps. The Opportunity, Growth, and Security Initiative -- a government-wide initiative -- requests an additional $26 billion in FY 2015 to address significant readiness and modernization challenges. In the years from FY 2016 to FY 2019, the Department of Defense (DoD) is asking for funding that exceeds the current budget caps by a total of approximately $115 billion in order to meet defense requirements.
I attended a briefing yesterday with Sen. Bernie Sanders, the Chairman of the Veterans Affairs Committee. The purpose of this briefing was to not only gain support from the Marine Corps Reserve Association but from all of the Veterans Service Organizations on proposed legislation he is going to introduce. That legislation is the "
S.1950, the Comprehensive Veterans Health and Benefits and Military Retirement Pay Restoration Act of 2014."
I will tell you up front this is a pretty sweeping piece of legislation, the likes of which we have not seen in decades. Here are a few of the highlights:
These are not all that the bill addresses. When you read the attachment, one of the pieces of legislation I did not talk about in the above is the
HONOR THE SERVICE OF RESERVE RETIREES. Now before any of you get excited, let me tell you what this means. There are a significant number of GUARDSMAN & RESERVESthat have served this country for a number of years, 3 – 5 – 10 – 20+ that were never mobilized. Thus, they never received a DD‐214 & as such are not considered "VETERANS." This would correct that.
The cost of this legislation would be between $27 – 54 BILLION! The Senator is awaiting the costs from the CBO. Sen Sanders knows he can deliver all the members on the Democratic side, he informed us that he would need 6 ‐10 Republicans to support this legislation to ensure its passing. Now – I must inform you, this legislation is not final & as all of us are aware, there will be compromises made to the final legislation coming out of the Senate. The single biggest question we had for the Senator was "where are these funds going to come from?" The Senator is going to propose funding of this bill by reprograming the Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) funds, for FY2014 this is $79.4 billion. Currently these funds are being used to:
Before you answer my question, I want you to think about this. During a press conference on May 20, 2013, Pentagon Press Secretary George Little said of the $79.4 billion, DoD was asking Congress to allow Pentagon officials to reprogram $9.6 billion in fiscal 2013 funding, "to offset the effects of sequestration." The $9.6 billion request looks to fix large shortfalls in overseas contingency operations funding and larger than expected fuel bills. I am providing this information to make a point, if you look at the list above notice item #3, "repair & replacement of equipment…." Some of the services have planned on using their portion of the funds to make up for shortfalls due to sequestration. Supporting this bill could take away funds targeted to be used for operations & maintenance costs.
The other piece of this puzzle is we both know that our Republican friends believe in a strong defense, how are they going to feel about taking funds away from those forces still engaged or those forces preparing to engage, those out there on the pointy tip? Sen Sanders did not address how the Republicans would feel, other than to state "we need 6 ‐10 to support this bill to get it passed. I hope you are now beginning to grasp the dilemma here. Do we endorse this legislation, which will no doubt enhance support to veterans that have returned from the fight or do we not support and allow DoD to use the funds to prepare the services, including the Marine Corps to recock for the next fight. I must let you know that Sen Sanders stated, "this is really not reallocating OCO funds. Remember these funds were provided to DoD to support service members engaged in Afghanistan. As those service members are withdrawn, fewer funds are required to support them in country, so we can use these funds to support service members returning here."
So what do you think? The Association must either provide a letter of endorsement or decline. I know how I feel, but this is bigger than me, I represent YOU so I need to know what you think & what we should do. To assist you in learning more about this proposed legislation I have attached the complete briefing letter.
To read the briefings of all the pieces of legislation you will need to click here, I do need to know how you feel pretty quick. At the beginning of the discussion, the Senator anticipated 3 ‐4 months before the legislation came up for a vote. Within 20 mins of his departure, his chief Executive Aide informed us the legislation could come up for a vote within a couple of weeks.
Pass this on to your fellow Marines, get their opinion(s). PLEASE let me know what you think.
I remain…..
Semper Fidelis,
Ken Hopper
National President

Another Thanksgiving has passed without a presidential commutation for Clarence Aaron, who, at age 24, was sentenced to life without parole for a first-time nonviolent drug conviction in 1993.
"The bottom line is this law is working and will work into the future," President Barack Obama said of his signature Affordable Care Act on Tuesday. It would be easier to believe the president if he hadn't said in 2009, "If you like the plan you have, you can keep it. If you like the doctor you have, you can keep your doctor, too."
You may remember hearing about the Montana judge who sentenced a former high school teacher who admitted to raping a 14-year-old student to 30 days in prison.

The "knockout game" - and the media underreporting of it - combines the breakdown of the family with the media's condescending determination to serve as a public relations bureau for blacks. The "game" is a dare in which a young man - all the perps appear to be male people of color, mostly blacks - tries to literally knock out an innocent bystander with one blow. Both National Public Radio and The New York Times say these reports of the "knockout game" being widespread are overblown and do not represent a trend. Really?
What amazing alchemists Wall Street bankers are! They can turn failure into gold and reform into business as usual.

It should be clear that teaching Americans we are now part of a global economy and teaching schoolchildren they are citizens of the world is a deceitful message to con us into a plan to add the poor countries around the earth to our list of welfare handout recipients. The United Nations globalists have gathered in Warsaw, Poland, for another conference to devise language to talk the United States into opening our treasury to the world.
At last, a fast food giant that gives a damn about the economic hardships low-wage workers face.
On Nov. 22, with the national media focused on the 50th anniversary of former President John F.

Why should that fact fixate the national media?
I try to avoid religious commentary, but - Good God! What is it about confession that the Catholic hierarchy can't seem to grasp?
"In space, no one can hear you scream" was the tag line for Ridley Scott's breakthrough 1979 sci-fi flick, "Alien." With the Federal Communications Commission's decision to revisit its 22-year ban on using cellphones in flight on passenger planes, that could change.
In 1992, in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, the United States Supreme Court reaffirmed its decision in Roe v. Wade holding that a woman has a constitutional right, grounded in the right to privacy, to decide whether to carry a pregnancy to term. That right, of course, is not - and never has been - absolute or unlimited. States may restrict that right (often in the name of protecting the woman's health) as long as the regulation does not impose an "undue burden" on a woman's choice. Past a certain point in pregnancy, abortion is prohibited unless necessary to preserve the ...

Where are the peaceniks? Why aren't they marching on Capitol Hill to protest President Barack Obama's use of military force in Syria and Iraq? The San Francisco Chronicle's Kevin Fagan interviewed peace activists who told him that their ranks are numb, in part because America has been at war for more than a decade. Some even wonder whether the Islamic State is so barbaric as to merit airstrikes.

Find out how much you know about scoliosis by taking this quiz, based on information from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases.
Scoliosis can occur before age 10, but it's rare and is generally caused by some condition such as a spinal tumor, congenital heart disease, or a genetic disorder rather than by the idiopathic (unknown cause) form. Scoliosis that appears before adolescence may need an extensive diagnosis and workup. The most common form, idiopathic scoliosis, occurs during puberty and is relatively easy to diagnose; only a small percentage of cases require extensive treatment. Mild idiopathic scoliosis occurs in approximately 3 percent of teens. More severe curvature has a markedly smaller incidence.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
RIVEIT SETTING TOOLS Filed Nov. 15, 1963 2 Sheets-Sheet 1 Inven tors Richard MEZZz'o it Raymond M YFernbZay By their/1 ztqrney mf/tfaa.
RIVET SETTING TOOLS Filed Nov. 13, 1963 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 United States Patent 3,154,210 RIVET SEITING TGOLS Richard M. Elliott, Beverly, and Raymond M. Tremblay, Whitman, Mass, assignors to United Shoe Machinery Corporation, Boston, Mass, a corporation of New Jersey Filed Nov. 13, 1963, Ser. No. 323,388 Claims. (Cl. 218-42) This invention relates generally to rivet setting tools, and has particular reference to a manually operable riveting tool for setting separable mandrel rivets of the pullto-set type.
One disadvantage of previously known tools of this type has been the weight and complexity necessary to pr0 vide adequate gripping and pulling power by manual operation, particularly when the tool is designed for setting rivets having various sizes of mandrels.
An object of this invention is to provide an improved hand tool for installing rivets of this type which is simple and economical to construct, yet is easily operated to set such rivets in various sizes.
A further object of this invention is to provide a tool of the type described which has an improved form of mandrel gripping means.
A further object of the invention is to provide a tool of the type described in which the mandrel gripping mechanism is readily accessible for adjustment or repair in case of jamming during separation of mandrels from their rivets.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a view in side elevation, partly in section, of a rivet setting tool embodying the features of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a view in section taken on line II1I of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a View similar to FIG. 1 illustrating the action of the mechanism during a rivet setting operation;
FIG. 4 is a view of FIG. 3 as seen from the left side; and
FIG. 5 is a view in side elevation, partly broken away, illustrating the method of rendering the mandrel gripping mechanism accessible for adjustment or repair.
Referring to the drawings, there is illustrated a rivet setting tool 1%) which is particularly adapted to set rivets of the type having a hollow barrel 12 flayed at one end, with a headed mandrel 14 disposed therein, the setting of the rivet being accomplished by pulling the mandrel head 16 into the rivet to distend the diameter of the barrel at its lower end until a weakened section of the mandrel permits it to separate and terminate distention of the barrel.
In the illustrated embodiment, the tool comprises a housing formed of a single piece of sheet metal bent to provide a base 18 and a pair of side walls 29 extending upwardly from the base in spaced relation. Near the forward end of the tool an embossment 22 is formed in the base to provide a rivet setting anvil which has a central aperture 24 to receive and guide a rivet mandel as will appear hereinafter. In the illustrated embodiment the base 18 and side walls 20 of the frame extend rearwardly to provide an integral first operating handle 26.
A second operating handle comprising a lever 28 is formed of a U-shaped piece of sheet metal with its forward end disposed between the upper end of the side walls 20, and fulcrumed on the side walls by a pin 30, the other end of the lever normally extending rearwardly in cooperating relation to the first handle 26.
To provide means for gripping a rivet mandrel and applying tension thereto, a drawbar 32 has a pivotal connection for pendulous movement on the second operating 3,1542% Patented Oct. 27, 1964 lever 28 by a pivot pin 33 disposed forwardly of the pivot pin 30, said drawbar being formed of a single piece of sheet metal bent on itself to provide a forwardly projecting U-shaped mandrel gripping bend portion 34 and a pair of side portions 36 at its lower end. To insure proper spacing of said side portions and to assist in guiding broken rivet mandrels out of the housing after the rivet is set, a pair of opposing interengaging embossments 38 are provided in the side portions 36.
Disposed between the side portions 36 is a mandrel gripping jaw 40 which is pivoted at the rear end to the side portions 36 by pin 42, with the forward end having mandrel gripping serrations 44, and being disposed in suitable spaced relation to the inside of said U-shaped bend portion 34 to permit the gripping of a mandrel therebetween as will appear hereinafter To limit the movement of the jaw 4d, the forward end thereof may be provided with an aperture 46, receiving a pin 48 exetnding between the side portions 36.
The serrated portion of the jaw 40 is generally arcuate with the center, indicated by the cross mark 47, of its curvature above the axis of the pin 42 to cause upward pivoting of the jaw to increase the distance between said serrated portion, and the opposite surface of the U- shaped bend portion inside the drawbar 32 to release a rivet mandrel, whereas downward pivoting of the jaw tends to decrease said distance with a gripping action on a rivet mandrel.
To bias the handles apart and the jaw 48 to its downward mandrel gripping position, and also to maintain the drawbar in the proper aligned relation to the aperture 24 for a smooth application of tension on the rivet mandrel, a single U-shaped spring 59 composed of flat material is provided, having the end of one leg retained on the operating lever pin 3t), and the end of the other leg seated in a suitable notch 52 in the upper side of the forward end of the jaw. The central portion 54 of the spring projects between the handles and slightly beyond the side walls 20 for a purpose to appear hereinafter, and in the assembled condition, the legs being flexed together apply a downward biasing force to the jaw 40, which is pivoted on the pin 33 forwardly of the pin 30 to apply a forward biasing force to the lower end of the drawbar 32.
To prepare the tool to receive a rivet mandrel, the operating lever 23 is raised, so that the drawbar is moved downwardly to cause one end of the jaw 40, which extends below the drawbar, to seat against the base 18. As the drawbar moves downwardly thereafter, the jaw opens, to permit a rivet mandrel to be inserted readily through the aperture 24 into the space between the end of the jaw and the U-shaped gripping portion 34. It will be noted that this space between the jaw and the U-shaped gripping portion is positioned in approximate alignment with the aperture 24 and the pin 33 by the combined action of the spring 50 and the operating lever 28. Before the drawbar has moved downwardly far enough for the jaw to contact the base 18, the spring 50 urges the drawbar forwardly toward the anvil 22, so that the U- shaped bend portion is forced by the spring against an abutment 56 disposed between the side walls 20 at the forward end of the tool. The position of the abutment is adjusted to enable a closer approximation of alignment between the aperture and the mandrel of a rivet inserted in the drawbar.
At about the time the jaw has contacted the base 18, the motion of the pivot 33 acquires a lateral component, due to the fact that the pivot 33 is beginning to move beneath its pivot pin 30 as a center, so that the upper end of the drawbar is moved slightly to the right, as seen in FIG. 1. The U-shaped gripping portion is thereby moved 3 slightly away from the abutment 56 in a rearward direction for a purpose to appear hereinafter.
The insertion of the rivet mandrel moves the jaw somewhat further rearwardly, so that the jaw presses against the mandrel due to the biasing effect of spring 50. Thereafter, as the drawbar is retracted by bringing the handles together, pressure of the jaw on the mandrel causes the jaw immediately to grip the mandrel by a wedging action against the inside of the U-shaped gripping portion 34.
The drawbar, being free of contact with the abutment 56 as tension is applied to the mandrel, is thereby capable of whatever further lateral adjustment is necessary to align the gripped mandrel by reason of the tension in it with the aperture 24 in the anvil, as increasing tension is applied, the drawbar swinging automatically to accommodate an exact alignment. In this way a uniform distention of the rivet is obtanied, limited only by the breaking strength of the mandrel at a weakened section close to the rivet in a known manner, the major portion of the broken mandrel remaining in the grip of the jaws. Usually the broken mandrel drops out of the grip of the jaws when the handles are released, but occasionally breakage of the mandrel is accompanied with jamming or clogging of the jaws from other cause so that the mandrel is not immediately released.
One of the features of the present invention is in the fact that the drawbar 32 can readily be swung rearwardly far enough to permit the jaw mechanism to project out from between the side walls 20, so as to be accessible for replacement, repair or removal of the broken off end of the mandrel, in case of jamming of the parts.
This may be accomplished without removal of any of the tool parts, merely by lifting upwardly on both the central V portion 54 of the spring, which serves as a key and the operating handle 28 to move them together as far as possible away from the handle 26, so that the drawbar swings clear of the base 18 rearwardly and upwardly until it projects out from beneath the side walls 20'of the housing. When projecting outwardly from between the side walls the pins 42 and 48 may readily be slipped from position to disassemble the jaw 40 or a jammed end of a separated rivet mandrel may be removed readily.
The drawbar mechanism may then be returned to the operative position by simply rotating the operating handle lever 28 back to its normal position, whereby the drawbar swings back into the housing so that the reverse bend portion bears against the abutment 56.
To prevent the handle 26 from squeezing the fingers of an operator against the handle lever 28, the side walls 20 of the housing are formed with opposite reverse bends 58 (see FIG. 4) at a mid-position, and a pair of tabs 60 are cut out of the sheet metal along the bend'to limit the movement of the lever 28 by engagement with the ends of the tabs. These tabs do not in any way interfere with the movement of the drawbar into and out of the housing because the drawbar fits into the narrower part of the housing where it is guided between the tabs.
Since certain obvious changes may be made in the illustrated embodiment of the invention without departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained herein be interpreted in an illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
1. A manually operable tool for setting separable mandrel rivets, said tool comprising;
a housing having an integral first operating handle,
a pair of spaced side walls, and
an anvil formed with an aperture to guide the mandrel of a rivet to be set.
a drawbar providing a U-shaped mandrel gripping portion at its lower end,
a jaw pivoted to the drawbar for gripping the mandrel 4 of a rivet against the gripping portion,
a second handle comprising a lever fulcrumed between the side walls of the housing and having a pivotal connection to the upper end of the drawbar to enable pendulous movement of the drawbar on the lever to bring a. rivet mandrel gripped within the drawbar auto matically into alignment with the aperture in the anvil by reason of tension in the mandrel as the handles are drawn together and, as the handles are separated after setting the rivet, to cause the drawbar to swing out from between the side walls of the housing to a position where a broken end of the mandrel may readily V be removed from the drawbar, and
a single spring means for simultaneously biasing the operating handles apart and the mandrel gripping jaw into gripping position.
2. A manually operable tool for setting separable mandrel rivets, said tool comprising;
a housing having an integral first operating handle,
a pair of spaced side walls, and
an anvil formed with an aperture to guide the mandrel of a rivet to be set,
a drawbar providing a U-shaped mandrel gripping portion at its lower end,
a jaw pivoted to the drawbar for gripping the mandrel of a rivet against the gripping portion of the drawbar, a second handle comprising a lever fulcrumed between the side walls of the housing and having a pivotal connection tosthe upper end of the drawbar for pendulous movement of the drawbar on the lever to bring a rivet mandrel gripped within the drawbar automatically into alignment with the aperture in the anvil by reason of tension in the mandrel as the handles are drawn together, and i a single spring having one end retained on the fulcrum of the second handle and the other end seated on the mandrel gripping jaw for simultaneously biasing the operating handles apart and the gripping jaws into approximate alignment with the aperture in the anvil.
3. A manually operable tool for setting separable mandrel rivets, as in claim 2, which there is provided,
an abutment in the housing against which the drawbar is forced by the spring into approximate alignment with the aperture of the anvil.
4. A manually operable tool for setting separable mandrel rivets, as in claim 3, in which the spring is Ushaped and composed of flat material having one leg retained on the fulcrum for the operating handle lever and the other leg seated on the mandrel gripping jaw, the central U portion of the spring being arranged to project between the handles and beyond the side walls of the housing.
5. A manually operable tool for setting separable mandrel rivets, as in claim 4, in which the projecting U portion of the spring serves as a key when lifted upwardly with the handle lever to assist in swinging the drawbar out'from between the side walls of the housing.

[Dublin] Launch of Children are in the Front Line of Israels Blockade of Gaza A Report By Stephen McCloskey (Israeli Apartheid Week 2013)
dublin | rights and freedoms | event notice Wednesday February 13, 2013 17:41 by IPSC - IPSC
The Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign cordially invites you to the launch of a new report on living conditions for children in Gaza.
Written just before Israel launched its Operation Pillar of Cloud attack on Gaza last November, in which 30 Palestinian minors lost their lives, this is a timely reminder that although it has slipped from the headlines, Israels blockade of Gaza continues with devastating consequences for its children. After visiting the region and seeing the situation first hand, Director of the Centre for Global Education, Stephen McCloskey, has compiled a hard hitting report on just what the continuing blockade means to the children of Gazas health, sanitation, education and future status.

1.) Presumably for illusions, elementals, and such, you make them with your powers so you're not pulling them from somewhere, but when you summon a person, are you actually taking them out of wherever they were and placing in the battle, or what? Because that seems incredibly selfish unless they swore fealty to you and promised to always be ready. And with beasts, are they also a particular one from wherever you met it, or is it some sort of representation?
2.) When creatures die and get reanimated, the only way this is possible is if they were actuall people/beasts that died and their corpses are on the battlefield. Now this is fine, except for... LEGENDARIES! A legendary can die and then another copy can be cast by someone else, meaning that creatures can't actually die, they just sort of go back to wherever they came from! But then the flavor of reanimation spells are totally ruined, because creatures' corpses and bones and such wouldn't actually be on the battlefield to be reanimated! Also, if you summon a legendary from the storyline and then it dies, the storyline explodes!
Someone please help me!

Hello All,
Due to a long and lengthy list of requirements I need to disable SIS on our storage server.
It's not really saving us any space, and it's playing havoc with our backup. The requirement to backup thousands of tiny .sis files is making a weekly backup take a whole week!
I have disabled SIS on the array, which is stopping any files from being associated now on - however I want to release the files already managed by SIS, and place them back into bog standard NTFS.
Now Storage Server 2008 has a little option built into the sisadmin commandlet which let's you totally uninstall it from a drive: sisadmin /u D: - however that option is not available on 2003!!
I have considering uninstalling SIS, but I do not want to end up deleting the files managed with it.
I do have a list of files managed with SIS - surprisingly there aren't many duplicates, which I don't inderstand. Most of it can be junked, but there is some work there.
I have also noticed that I can view and copy files managed with SIS in Explorer. Could I manually (booo!) copy these files off, remove the SIS Common Store, and then copy them back?
Has anyone had any experience of this, as I am well confused!
I just cannot understand why the 2003 version of sisadmin is missing the /U flag. It would have made this far, far easier!!!

The ultra-thin Vivo X3S goes on sale in Malaysia
The 5.95mm-thin Vivo X3S left its homeland in China to hit the shelves in Malaysia. The Android Jelly Bean smartphone is now available on the local market for RM 1,399 (about $428).
The iPhone 5s-resembling Vivo X3S is powered by a MediaTek SoC with 1.7GHz octa-core CPU. The remaining highlights of its spec sheet include 5 720p IPS display, a gig of RAM, 13MP f/1.8 camera, and 2,000 mAh battery.
Because of the MediaTek SoC, the Vivo X3S runs Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. In line with the external looks of the device, its Android UI sticks to the iPhone theme by sporting a decidedly iOS 7-like design.

How To: Simple(r) Screenshots for the Archos 5 Android
Posted by map002 on January 21st, 2010
When Archos released it's first Donut (Android 1.6) firmware, those who installed it noticed a great new feature… Screenshots!
With the press of a button, users could capture their screens to PNG files, making it easy to describe new apps or illustrate blogs like this one.
that firmware was quickly pulled for bugs in the browser and, most likely, for other reasons (like the developer code left usa viagra sales in the release, including the screenshot functionality).
However, when the proper firmware release of Donut debuted yesterday, some users were sorry to see that screenshots were a no-show.
So, here comes Devo, the same hacker who brought us the first simplified Market hack for Donut, to the rescue!
It's not an app but a simple script that will allow more adventurous users to grab screenshots off the device when tethered via a USB connection to a PC, Mac or Linux box. Here's the original forum thread and a complete how-to guide, as well as the links to the files you'll need.
Devo harnesses some built-in developer functionality in the A5A and combines
it with the scripts, drivers and files

you'll need
to get great PNG screenshots on the Archos SSD, HDD or even right to your PC.

This state park is located on beautiful Lake Jocassee. The park was difficult to get into with our 35 ft motorhome. The road leading into the park is very tight. The sites are very close together and most are not level. The park does not enforce the dog leash rule. We have a small dog and across from our site were four large dogs who were never on a leash. The bathrooms were clean but old and needed updating. THe positive was the lake. We took a pontoon boat tour from a private company and that was the highlight of our stay at Devil's Fork. - budolemiss
I was traveling north on SC11 and my GPS directed me to turn about 1/2 mile too soon, I was pulling a toad so I could not turn around, ended up driving on a tiny and twisty dirt road for several miles that finally did intersect with correct road to park. The check-in station is remote from the campground and is not very big-rig friendly for entry, exit or parking for registration. My site was a pull thru and was paved and level. The bath laundry house I would rate about a 6 on 1 to 10 scale for cleanliness. The roads in and around the campground are not very well marked so you need to utilize the map they give you for travel within the park. I would stay here again. - trav
Park is on a bluff overlooking Jocassee Lake with a few lake view sites, but most sites in the thick woods, and the lake views are poor until leaves fall. Some sites level, many have some slant. The sites are fine gravel with water and 30 amp electricity close beside the sites. The CG paved roads are narrow, irregular and windy with large riff-raff rocks lining them so careful driving is needed. Nice bath houses with tiled floors and nice showers, but a bit tired and counters definitely need to be spiffed up. The lake has many boat landings and pavalions which are closed for end of season. Canoes and kayaks for rent. The large beautiful lake is part of the Duke power company electrical generation system. Fine for over night and for campers with boats and for swimming. Give it a 7 for difficult CG roads. - 210jem

Home � Dining & Food � Our Gourmet
Garwoods offers good food, ambiance
Garwoods Restaurant & Pub6 North Main St., Wolfeboro
Serving: Open every day for lunch and dinner
Cuisine: American
Pricing: Appetizers $6-$15; salads $9-$19; lunch entrees $8-$14; dinner entrees $18-$37.
Restaurant Location:
We visited Garwoods on Main Street recently, our first time there, and can now add another spot to our list of favorites among the area's fine dining establishments.
Atmosphere 17/20
Our Gourmet: "Lakeside plush" is the phrase that comes to mind inside Garwoods, where the boating motif is ever dominant. Longboat oars adorn the walls, and deep, rich, polished wood and nautical lights add sparkle under the low-slung ceiling. Inside, dozens of tables are backed by floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking the outdoor deck dining area — and Wolfeboro's corner of Lake Winnipesaukee which, notwithstanding other nearby peaceful, smaller lakes, is the whole reason to be there. 9/10
The Dining Companion: Garwoods sets a nice tone immediately. Its small storefront entrance on Main Street belies the size of the place. It's long and only slightly narrow, stretching from the sidewalk out front to Winni water out back.
Inside, plush carpet and cloth table settings set off the nicely appointed dining area, and the cocktail lounge features polished brass hand- and foot-rails, of course. Ship lights and nautical prints are everywhere; boat shoes are not required. 8/10
Menu 17/20
OG: The dinner menu is thoroughly nautical as well, featuring fresh oysters, shrimp, scallops and a wide selection of gourmet-prepared seafood. But we were here for lunch, and pleased to find a good selection of lighter fare for the noonday meal. Salads and burgers and all manner of sandwiches are available, most around $12, except the burgers, which start under $10. The wine list is expansive, with bottles ranging from $24 to $95. Appetizers, around $10, run to a regular list, but one specialty appetizer would be great to share with guests before dinner — Mexican Seafood Cocktail ($14.99), featuring shrimp and lump crab in a spicy cocktail sauce with tomato, roasted chilies, olives, cilantro and avocado. 8/10
TDC: Kids at Garwoods get to order from a little skippers menu, but adults can enjoy chowder, lobster bisque, French onion soup and fried calamari, and that's only the beginning. Other items that caught our eyes included Kobe Beef Pops ($8.99), on the starters list, which looked so good it nearly became my meal — American Kobe beef meatballs with bleu cheese and bacon. Also tempting was the fish tacos ($12.99) with beer-battered haddock with a cilantro slaw and roasted jalapeno peppers, and lime tartar sauce. But the salads and specials menus also wooed us. Diners looking for any taste fare very well here. 9/10
Sandwiches & Salads 16/20
OG: Creative sandwiches stand out on the menu, besides fish and chips ($13.99), fish tacos ($12.99) and a steak & cheese sub ($11.99). All come with fries, or a salad for $1.50 more, and include a portobello mushroom flatbread sandwich ($11.99), which features all kinds of goodness between the flatbreads — including tomato, zucchini, summer squash, mozzarella, goat cheese and a balsamic reduction and olive oil sauce. 8/10
TDC: I was tempted by a chicken cobb wrap ($13.99) with bacon, bleu cheese, tomatoes, scallions and avocado; a bleu cheese buffalo chicken salad sandwich ($11.99), or any number of salads: caesar, with or without chicken and a good deal at $5.99 to $8.99; butternut squash ravioli over a salad of mixed greens ($14.99) with gorgonzola crumbles, cashews, Parmesan cheese and an apple-curry vinaigrette; or the star salad of arugula with grilled jumbo sea scallops ($18.99) with candied pecans, dried cranberries, carrots, cucumbers and a pear-champagne vinaigrette. 8/10
Entrees 17/20
OG: My taste buds directed me immediately to the specials menu and its five-spice salmon sandwich ($12.99), which was a delicious concoction of Asian-spiced sauce and a tender salmon filet served on pita. The presentation was lacking, but the meal delivered. A half pita was stuffed with salmon and toppings and a sweet/tangy/ spicy Thai chili sauce, and the filet of fish was outstandingly tasty.
Served with fries, which were thoroughly cooked (sometimes a rarity), I was very pleased with sandwich toppings including peppers and Napa cabbage and other goodies under the bright orange, top-notch sauce. The plate needed a sprig of green, however, or some accompaniment to offset the first impression of a spread of french fries and a sandwich, which appeared spartan on the large white plate. That was no matter, however, once the eating commenced. 8/10
TDC: My Asian chicken salad ($14.99) was a delight, featuring grilled, tender, juicy teriyaki chicken and Napa cabbage with a soy-miso Japanese-inspired sauce, thin fried strips of wonton noodles, and a plateful of vegetables, including green and red peppers and onions. The soy-miso-vinaigrette dressing was outstanding, and not overserved. 9/10
All the rest 16/20
OG: With so many eating and drinking spots in such a small town, Wolfeboro offers more than a few restaurants where summertime commands solid prices and guests expect quality food and good service. It's all there at Garwoods, but the prices are comparatively reasonable, and all menu items (except for fine wines) are within reach of most diners seeking a good meal. Service is friendly and relaxed, with most servers attending to any guest who requires anything. The presence of the big lake right out the back window sets the scene, and it's pleasant all around. 8/10
TDC: We like to say we'll return to restaurants, but so often we just don't — there are too many others to try and so little time. But we will, this time we really will, come back to Garwoods to try the cavatappi pasta, a wonderful sounding dish of shrimp, grape tomatoes, chorizo sausage and mozzarella in a dill butter sauce.
