For a tackle box gun I would go with a Hi Point. I have several Hi Point pistols I have bought used. One of them has been in a feed tub for several years. Every so often I shoot all the ammo out of it and spray it down with CLP. It goes bang every time I shoot it. It is an extremely good chance the Hi Point bashers have never actually fired a Hi Point.
Nothing in the affairs of men is worthy of great anxiety - Plato
If your going to beat someone, something or an animal with it get a high point..
For something you can shoot and expect to work each time buy a Glock..
Herd good things about HP rifles but everyone I've ever met or known with a HP pistol swore it was the biggest POS they ever had and felt like it was a waste of $150.
Rise and rise again, until lambs become lions....
Fear cuts deeper then the sword.
I can say this much about both Hi Point and Glock. If you throw one of each pistol in a pile of cordless drills you would have a hard time finding either one of them.
I have shot a Hi Point and also worked on a couple, I wouldn't have one on a bet. If the right grip panel comes loose it won't fire. There is a lever that rides in a molded slot in the grip panel, if there panel does not stay tight the lever misses it's connecting point and the trigger won't work. I'm guessing a broken panel will put it down the same way. There has got to be a Rossi or Taurus floating around used in that price range if it's gonna get beat anyway. Who needs a 9 that kicks like a hot loaded 45 anyway?
I absolutely positively hate glocks but I'd rather have a glock than a hi point. I've shot both stripped and cleaned both. No contest as far as quality, glock wins hands down.
I have never fired a Glock so I cannot speak of them.
I do own a Hi-Point JHP (my only pistol) and have never had a single problem from it. I have seen complaints about the 9mm Hi-Points having feeding issues.
I have several rifles and shotguns, just not much of a pistol guy.
No offense and none taken (̿▀̿ ̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿ ̿)̄
I do not own either one myself. I have fired, fieldstripped, and cleaned both. there is a reason I went with a 1911 instead, neither one impressed me much. My suggestion:
Place one of each in front of the tires of a 1 ton truck that is fully loaded. Drive truck over both 2 to 3 times, and then check functional capability of both. If one survives, use it. If both survive, you're SOL. I can't help any more than this..........
Is it better to do the right thing for the wrong reason, or to do the wrong thing for the right reason? If you do the wrong thing for the right reason, is it still the wrong thing?
Si vis pacem para bellum.
There are two ways of doing something. Right and again.
Since I have NO good, and very little bad, experience with Hi-Point, I'd go with Glock as I have a few and never had an issue. The limited experience with Hi-Point has been nowhere near enough to convince me to trust it. Maybe others have. I can really only attest to the Glock's (block, brick, 2x4, etc as the haters call them) reliability and durability over the last 12 yrs. I have never had an issue. Ive never been around any that had issues. Maybe others have. Can anyone name any agencies or depts that issue Hi-Points?
Try them both out, and go with what you feel best. Thats really a better option than our opinions.

What better way to celebrate the birth of this great nation than with a porn biopic? Well the trailer for one at least.
Lovelace stars Amanda Seyfried as Linda Lovelace, an icon in the world of porn and star of Deep Throat. Peter Sarsgaard does what Peter Sarsgaard seems to do best by playing her creepy husband.
Lindsay Lohan was originally on board as Linda Lovelace but was replaced by Seyfried. Perhaps it's time to stop and take a look at your life trajectory if you are replaced in a movie about a porn star. Just a thought.

Great Bend has some new sparkles in its Trail of Lights.
Barton Community College has taken its military training to at least 13 states, and is attempting to offer even more courses at Fort Sill, Okla., and at Fort Leavenworth.
The Barton County Sheriff's Office has arrested a "person of interest" in last Saturday's shooting death of Damon Galyardt. No one has been charged in the 25-year-old Great Bend man's death, which is being investigated as first-degree murder, and no one is considered a suspect.
A Claflin woman was taken to Clara Barton Hospital in Hoisington on Monday after the car she was in was rear-ended by another car on NE 130 Road and K-156, 1 mile north of Claflin, around 7:35 a.m.
Law enforcement officers followed up several leads Saturday after learning about the shooting death of Damon Galyardt, Sheriff Greg Armstrong said Tuesday.
The Future Business Leaders Association at Great Bend High School has offered to build a website for the Great Bend Recreation Commission in a program called "Tech the Rec."
The investigation continued Monday into the death of a 25-year-old Great Bend man whose body was discovered by hunters Saturday morning.
For years, a piece of Civil War history has, in effect, been hidden in plain sight in the Barton County courthouse square.
Photographs by Richard L. Casagrande, Ellinwood, are on display this month at the Barton County Arts Center, located at Forest and Main in Great Bend. The Arts Center is open weekday afternoons. The public can meet Casagrande during a reception from 2-4 p.m. Sunday at the Arts Center.
A former Ellinwood teacher convicted of attempted electronic solicitation is scheduled to be sentenced this week in Barton County District Court, and another man convicted of sexting teenagers began his prison sentence last week.
Playing Angry Birds or learning how to download a song on iTunes may not make board meetings run more smoothly, but it can be a good introduction to 21st Century technology, Barton Community College President Dr. Carl Heilman said Thursday. Notebook computers are popping up all over the BCC campus, and now each of the six college trustees has been issued one.
It's time for residents of central Kansas to adjust to colder weather, and that includes the birds and animals that reside at the Great Bend-Brit Spaugh Zoo.
An increasingly popular after-school hangout is the Great Bend Public Library.
Kansas Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan stopped in Great Bend Tuesday to talk about the "flatter, simpler and fairer" tax plan Gov. Sam Brownback says he wants for the state.
DeleteMark and Krista Ball were named the 2014 Great Bend Greater Award recipients during a rare evening meeting of the Noon Kiwanis Club, Thursday at Montana Mike's. In addition to recognizing the couple for their commitment to community service, the club gave away more than $1,500 to area organizations to celebrate its 75th anniversary.
Barton Community College officials voted on bids as quickly as they could, but there was no way to rebuild the dining hall at BCC's Camp Aldrcih before June 1, 2015. So, the popular venue for weddings, camps and other business or social gatherings will remain closed for another summer, due to the fire that destroyed the dining hall last April.
A Gus Shafer sculpture that was never completed will grace the space outside the gallery that bears his name in the future, said Dave Barnes, director of the Shafer Art Gallery in the Fine Arts Building at Barton Community College.
Area residents may be sipping wine for an adult-only evening next year in the Great Bend-Brit Spaugh Zoo, according to Zoo Director Scott Gregory.
One task the Great Bend Recreation Commission will face in 2015 is planning the city's next public playground, which will be located outside of the Great Bend Activity Center at 2715 18th St.
Live theater choices abound this weekend in Barton County. Adults seeking to quench their thirst for laughter should save at least one night for the Great Bend Community Theatre production, "Beer for Breakfast."
It was kind of exciting to post "I survived the Kansas earthquake of Nov. 12, 2014," on Facebook and Twitter, but it turns out earthquakes are becoming rather common in the Wheat State.
Salina firm Harbin Construction won the bid to build a new dining hall for Barton Community College's Camp Aldrich. The original dining hall was destroyed by a fire last April.
Members of the Great Bend Zoological Society had a lot to celebrate at their annual meeting, Monday night at the Great Bend-Brit Spaugh Zoo. But members were also saddened by last week's announcement that Zoo Director Scott Gregory will be leaving at the end of the year, to accept a job in Florida.
The Great Bend Recreation Commission is offering seventh- and eighth-grade basketball for the first time this fall. Sports Director Chris Umphres said enrollment has begun for boys and girls, and will continue for two weeks.
Barton County saw several accidents involving deer over the weekend, continuing a trend that began in October. Kansas Highway Patrol reports deer activity on and near Kansas roadways always poses a seasonal traffic hazard during deer-breeding season, which starts in October and runs into December.

Birthday gift
Reviewed: 14 November 2014 by One love , a Straight Going Steady Male
My OH got me this as a surprise for my birthday as I had wanted to up my anal experiences for a while.
When opening the packet there was no nasty new smell which we have experienced before on other products. It felt very good quality.
On first try, with plenty of lube and going slow, it slipped in with no problem!
The vibrations are amazing, and plenty to choose from to suit your mood!
It's also very comfortable to, so can be used for long periods (great for foreplay).
I've had this for some time now and it still gets used regularly even though I've since bought other bigger toys.
It has yet to give me orgasm on its own, but enhances lovemaking and bondage games! And the OH can be in control of the remote!
Overall, a great toy for new and experienced anal lovers!
The only downside it the connection to the remote has recently become a bit temperamental, but has had a lot of use over the last year or so!
- Pros
- Comfort and the different vibrations.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- A cheap, amazing start to vibrating butt plugs.

A must-have
Reviewed: 13 November 2014 by incognito666
I got this product delivered to my nearest post office with no trouble at all! It was packaged well and discreetly.
This was mine and my partner's first toy! So I opted for a butt plug, so we could have sex while either one of us had it in.
It's not too big at all. It's a nice size, smooth, comfortable and looks great. Once lube was applied, it was a nice fit! Although the butt plug is quite firm, once inside that's not a problem. He loves it in while we have sex, and it feels amazing for me too as I can even feel the vibrations.
We don't live alone, so we're worried my roommate would hear as she is right through the wall, but once inserted and turned on, it's not loud at all! The stronger the vibration the louder it gets, but nothing too loud!
The different patterns of vibrations makes it fun too! Overall, an amazing must-have! We both love it!
- Pros
- Everything.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- 100% a 10/10!

I ordered this as me and my fiancé wanted to try something different. It came in very discreet packaging and really quick delivery. This did not disappoint!
Covered it in lube and it went straight in without a struggle! Also came out without a struggle as that's what I was worried about! Perfect for the first time. :)
Very comfortable and feels amazing! The vibrations are amazing, and really touches your P-spot!
Easy to clean afterwards and made really well! This is definitely worth buying! I would definitely buy more of this kind of thing! Really turned me and my fiancé on!
- Pros
- Very comfortable and easy to insert.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- A real turn-on.

This is a perfect item for all.
The vibrations are effective and strong, and the 10 functions make it super easy to find a setting correct for you.
The single button on the remote makes it easy to change the setting of the vibration and the batteries are easy to change.
The shape of the plug means that with a bit of lube, insertion is as easy and painless as possible.
The cable between the plug and remote has plenty of length. It's easy use no matter if you are on your own or with a partner in control.
- Pros
- Powerful vibrations, penalty of pattens, easy to insert.
- Cons
- Bottom line
- Highly recommended.

Director Doug Wilson travelled the world for two years collecting material on the Linotype typesetting machine. The result is a 76-minute documentary on a device that Thomas Edison called "The Eighth Wonder of the World" and which revolutionised both the printing industry and society as a whole. The film not only looks at the history of the typesetting machine, but also tells the poignant and heartwarming stories of the people who worked with it.
A must-see nostalgic look back at the era when lead type was still used.

(A pinball machine has appeared in the living room)Just as a chessboard indicates a smart character and golf clubs indicate an upper-crust executive, a quick way to establish a character's frivolous personality is to show him having a pinball machine or arcade video game in a home, work, or personal environment. Such a character will typically be almost Always Male, and is either The Slacker, a Man Child, One of the Kids, a Cloudcuckoolander, or something comparable. Since a good-condition machine typically costs more than a personal computer, such a prop establishes some level of wealth for the owner; having multiple machines serves to further emphasize the character's extravagance or misguided priorities, especially if he's already financially challenged. Actually playing with the game is not required; simply having it in the background flashing its Attract Mode is enough to make the point. Sometimes, in order to establish a character as The Smart Guy as well as one of the above traits, it'll turn out that he built or restored the machine himself. Lots of Hacker Caves have one of these in the background somewhere. (Truth in Television; MAME-based replica cabinets are a popular project for electronics hobbyists.) If the game is actually based on the character, that could be a further sign of extraordinary wealth or an overinflated ego. Note that this trope does not apply when the game in question is in a location that reasonably should have such things, such as a video arcade, bar, laundromat, or boardwalk. Similarly, having a home video game system doesn't qualify for this trope, as those are affordable for most people. Truth in Television, as demonstrated below - these sorts tend to be die-hard arcade enthusiasts or collectors rescuing a few cabinets or buying "HUO" (home use only) machines. The cost of running and maintaining one does wear out a wallet, of course. Also see Pastimes Prove Personality and Fictional Video Game.

The scout. The rogue. The thief.
No Launching Please The Sneaky Guy is the one in a group who searches things out, looking for traps, enemies, and other hidden things. If they go first, they sneak and hide, not relying on speed and strength like The Big Guy. They are usually mobile, carrying little equipment. They rely on spotting danger first, stealth, reflexes and their wits to stay alive. In a fight, The Sneaky Guy will probably try to stay inconspicuous, looking for a weak spot to exploit or a way to confuse the enemy. Ranged weapons are common, as are daggers and short swords. Many games, like Dungeons & Dragons, has prepared roles for The Sneaky Guy, like a thief or a rogue. Related tropes are Stealth Expert, Technicolor Ninjas, Army Scout of the western movies, or the Scarily Competent Tracker. If a character manages to be both good at fieldcraft and fighting straight-up, it's usually a Ranger. The Sneaky Guy corresponds to the thief in Fighter, Mage, Thief, just as The Big Guy corresponds to the fighter and The Smart Guy to the mage. Duos with The Big Guy are common. The Sneaky Guy can also easily serve as the Beauty in a Beauty, Brains and Brawn trio, or The Chick in a group -- at least they get to do more than as The Heart. In a Five-Man Band, The Lancer or The Smart Guy can double as The Sneaky Guy. If serving in The Squad, a not uncommon variation is serving as the point man, where The Sneaky Guy often takes on elements of the Big Guy. Examples: Anime and Manga

Hi: 11° Lo:7°
By Tristan Harris Tuesday 20 November 2012 Updated: 22/11 13:59
THERE will be plenty of festive fun at Webbs garden centre in Wychbold in the coming weeks, leading up to Christmas.
This Saturday (November 24), the centre will also be unveiling its own ice rink tomorrow (Saturday).
That will enable residents to enjoy outdoor skating and will be open everyday, except Christmas Day and Boxing Day, until January 6.
Each session is 45 minutes long and includes skate hire. Tickets start from just £5.
Webbs' executive chairman Ed Webb said: "There's nothing to make you feel festive more than skating outdoors on real ice.
"It's magical skating outside in the early evening with lights twinkling and frost in the air and just as much fun in the quieter sessions, perhaps teaching your children to skate."
For booking and full details of times and prices, visit www.webbsdirect.co.uk .
Tickets can also be bought in store at Webbs, Wychbold.
And, last Saturday (November 18), Santa delighted crowds when he arrived by sleigh.
He will now take pride of place at Webbs' grotto, which will be open from now until Christmas Eve.
Tickets to see Father Christmas are £6 per child. That includes one accompanying adult and booking is recommended.
Mr Webb added: "It's such a magical sight to see Father Christmas arrive on a sleigh with his reindeer.
"Reindeer are central to the idea of Christmas and this will be a great chance for our customers to see these magnificent animals up close."

- Golden units certified, free webinar scheduled and standard publicly available
SAN RAMON, California, Nov. 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The ZigBee® Alliance, a global ecosystem of companies creating wireless solutions for use in energy management, commercial and consumer applications, today announced the public download availability of its ZigBee Input Device™ standard and the selection of golden units supporting this global standard for human interface devices used in consumer electronics (CE) and computer accessories. A free public webinar revealing the innovation of the ZigBee Input Device has been scheduled for December 6.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20091005/SF86596LOGO)
As a part of the extensive Alliance test and certification plan development process, selected golden units development kits from Freescale, GreenPeak Technologies and Texas Instruments were approved as golden units. These implementations will serve as golden units against which future ZigBee Certified products using this standard will be tested. This testing process ensures compliance with the standard so that consumers can be assured that all ZigBee Input Device products will interoperate, regardless of who builds them. Testing services were provided by TÜV Rheinland.
ZigBee Input Device gives CE manufacturers a standardized way to create advanced mice, touchpads, keyboards, wands or remote control pointers that operate from greater distances and even nearby rooms. This functionality is essential as consumers search for more efficient ways to work with smart TVs, streaming devices and set-top boxes. ZigBee Input Device offers two-way communications between devices, making them smarter and capable of delivering more features than devices using 30-year-old infrared (IR) technology. Plus, ZigBee Input Device products are a greener choice because they will use energy very efficiently and require significantly fewer batteries during their lifetimes than infrared.
"ZigBee Input Device really helps CE manufacturers as they look for ways to improve the ways consumers interact with their advanced and interactive products," said Bob Heile, chairman of the ZigBee Alliance. "ZigBee Input Device leverages the success of ZigBee Remote Control which is already in millions of TVs, set-top boxes and gateways. Traditional infrared isn't capable of dealing with the demands of consumers trying to quickly and easily stream movies, make purchases, search for apps or schedule recordings. A ZigBee Input Device with a keyboard would help consumers complete any of those activities in a snap."
Free Webinar
The Alliance will host a free public webinar covering ZigBee Input Device as well as ZigBee Remote Control and the ZigBee RF4CE specification on December 6, 2012. "ZigBee RF4CE: A Quiet Revolution is Underway" will be held from 8-9 a.m. PST and feature speakers from the CE industry. Space is limited and advance registration is available at: https://www4.gotomeeting.com/register/595909335
ZigBee Input Device – The standard for advanced human input devices
ZigBee Input Device is the global standard for greener, innovative and easy-to-use mice, keyboards, wands, touchpads and other input devices used with computers and CE devices. It gives these devices non-line-of-sight operation, two-way communication, longer range of use, extended battery life, a broader range of capabilities and features. ZigBee Input Device is a standard designed especially for the ZigBee RF4CE specification. For more information or to download the standard, visit: www.zigbee.org/inputdevice.

Bridge Allision
Study Conducted After Fatal Bridge Accidents Yields Five-Point Action Plan
The American Waterways Operators (AWO), the national trade association for the American tugboat, towboat and barge industry, and the U.S. Coast Guard, have jointly released a study of barge/bridge allisions spanning ten years. Undertaken as part of the Coast Guard-AWO Safety Partnership, the study was conducted by the Coast Guard- AWO Bridge Allision Work Group, established last summer in the aftermath of fatal bargebridge accidents at South Padre Island, Texas in September 2001 and Webbers Falls, Oklahoma in May 2002. Based upon the findings, the Work Group report identified a fivepoint action plan to prevent bridge allisions and minimize the consequences of those that do occur. The Work Group examined ten years of accident data from the Coast Guard marine casualty database on all bridge allisions involving barges and towing vessels from January 1, 1992, to December 31, 2001. Because the Texas and Oklahoma accidents are still under investigation, the Work Group did not attempt to draw conclusions about the causes of those particular incidents. When those investigation results are released, the Coast Guard and AWO will review the findings and identify any other measures that may need to be taken to reduce any risk to the public of allisions between bridges and towing vessels. Key findings of the Work Group include: n Bridge allisions involving towing vessels occur at the rate of about six allisions per 10,000 towing vessel trips.
To Report or Not to Report - That Should Never be the Question
In the realm of marine casualties and incidents, each case has its own set of facts, cast of mariners and vessels involved and, frequently, sharp differences of opinion regarding same. The one common denominator of most marine casualties, however, is the requirement to report them to the U.S. Coast Guard (U.S.C.G.). While what defines a marine casualty is often in the eyes of the beholder/mariner, it is much more prudent to err on the side of caution and, when in doubt
Obstructive Bridges and the Pennsylvania and Oregon Rules
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit ruled that a finding by the U.S. Coast Guard that a bridge over a navigable waterway constitutes an unreasonable obstruction to navigation does not invoke the Pennsylvania Rule and does not, on its own, rebut the Oregon Rule. In the instant case, defendant's towboat and barges allided with plaintiff's bridge. Some months previously, the Coast Guard had issued an Order to Alter the bridge
Electronic Navigation and Causation
The US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled that failure to train a master on how to properly use electronic navigation equipment does not make the vessel owner fully liable for an allision nor does it prevent the vessel owner from limiting its liability when there is insufficient evidence to prove that such failure to train was the cause of the allision. In the instant case, defendant's fishing vessel allided with plaintiff's offshore rig in the Gulf of Mexico
Tankship Scrapes By Bay Bridge, San Francisco
The Coast Guard is investigating the incident where the tankshilp reported to the USCG it had allided with Tower Six of the bridge. The 752-foot Marshall Island's-registered tanker Overseas Reymar reported to the Coast Guard at approximately 11:20 a.m. that it had allided with tower six of the Bay Bridge in the San Francisco Bay. The vessel was immediately directed to an anchorage area just west of Alcatraz Island by the Coast Guard Captain of the Port
Fender Allision on Arkansas River
The Coast Guard is responding to a fender allision involving the 23-meter motor vessel Bill Rodgers and the Interstate 30 bridge at mile marker 118.5 on the Arkansas River, Thursday. Coast Guard Sector Lower Mississippi River watchstanders received a report from the vessel operator at 3:20 p.m. reporting that while pushing eight empty barges, the tug Bill Rodgers allided with the north fender system. The Coast Guard immediately dispatched its marine inspection and investigation teams to the
Cummings Convenes Hearing on Inspector General's Report Concerning COSCO BUSAN

Cummings convened the Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation to receive a report developed by the Department of Homeland Security's Office of the Inspector General (OIG) on the circumstances surrounding the allision of the COSCO BUSAN with the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge on November 7, 2007. This report was originally requested by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi
Guilty Plea in Case of Cosco Busan Ship Pilot
John Joseph Cota, a California ship pilot, pleaded guilty on March 6 to negligently causing the discharge of approximately 53,000 gallons of oil into San Francisco Bay in violation of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, a law enacted in the wake of the Exxon Valdez disaster. Cota, who piloted the M/V Cosco Busan when it hit the San Francisco Bay Bridge on Nov. 7, 2007, also pleaded guilty to violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act for the death of protected migratory birds.
USCG Terminates Bridge Project Permit

U.S. 4th Circuit Court Of Appeals Overturns Va. Same-Sex Marriage Ban
BTL Staff
Originally printed 7/28/2014 (Issue 2230 - Between The Lines News)
VIRGINIA -The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit today [July 28] affirmed a district court ruling striking down Virginia's ban on marriage for same-sex couples. The decision will not take effect immediately, but will go into effect in 21 days, unless the defendants file a motion to stay the ruling. The ruling will also be stayed if the defendants ask the full court of appeals to review the case.
"We recognize that same-sex marriage makes some people deeply uncomfortable," said Circuit Judge Henry F. Floyd. "However, inertia and apprehension are not legitimate bases for denying same-sex couples due process and equal protection of the laws. Civil marriage is one of the cornerstones of our way of life."
In a 2 to 1 vote the panel of U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit ruled that a fundamental right to marry is guaranteed under the constitution regardless of sexual orientation. Circuit Court Judge Rodger L. Gregory joined Judge Floyd in support of overturning the ban with Judge Paul V. Niemeyer in opposition.
"Civil marriage is one of the cornerstones of our way of life," Floyd said. "It allows individuals to celebrate and publicly declare their intentions to form lifelong partnerships, which provide unparalleled intimacy, companionship, emotional support, and security. The choice of whether and whom to marry is an intensely personal decision that alters the course of an individual's life. Denying same-sex couples this choice prohibits them from participating fully in our society, which is precisely the type of segregation that the Fourteenth Amendment cannot countenance."
This ruling makes the 4th Circuit the second appeals court to decide that state bans are unconstitutional. U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit in Denver has struck down bans in both Utah and Oklahoma.
Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe praised Attorney General Mark R. Herring for refusing to defend the ban and applauded the court's ruling for equality. Herring came out in support of the challengers of the Virginia ban shortly after taking office this year.
"This is a historic ruling for our Commonwealth, and its effect will affirm once again that Virginia is a state that is open and welcoming to all," McAuliffe said. "I want to thank Attorney General Mark Herring for his leadership in this case, and all of the men and women who fought for years to make this day a reality. Progress does not always come as quickly as we hope it will, but today is yet another example of how justice, equality and the people who fight for those values will always persevere in the end."
The case, Bostic v. Schaefer, included a certified class made up of approximately 14,000 same-sex couples in the commonwealth who want to get married or want their out-of-state marriages recognized in Virginia and are represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, the ACLU of Virginia, Lambda Legal, and the law firm of Jenner & Block. In addition, two plaintiff couples in Norfolk are represented in the case by attorneys Ted Olson and David Boies, their law firms, Gibson Dunn and Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP and the law firm of Shuttleworth, Ruloff, Swain, Haddad & Morecock, P.C.
"The historic Supreme Court case that allowed for people of different races to marry, so providentially named Loving v.Virginia, started here," said James Esseks, director of the ACLU Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender Project, who argued the case for the class before the federal appeals court. "In the 47 years since, committed same-sex couples in the commonwealth have been patiently waiting for the freedom to marry the person they love. Today's decision sends a message that everyone deserves the dignity and protection that only comes with marriage."
The couples representing the class in the case are Joanne Harris and Jessica Duff of Staunton and Christy Berghoff and Victoria Kidd of Winchester.
"We're overjoyed that we're a step closer to being recognized by our loved ones and community the same way that all of our opposite-sex married friends and relatives are," said Harris. "Although Jessi and I are absolutely committed to each other and our son, marriage holds an unparalleled meaning, both legally and emotionally."
If the Supreme Court doesn't grant review of the decision, the appeals court decision will be final and all same-sex couples in Virginia who want to get married or want their marriages recognized will be able to do so. The ruling could also impact similar bans in the remaining Fourth Circuit states (North Carolina, South Carolina, and West Virginia) that continue to discriminate against same-sex couples.More information on this case can be found at: http://www.aclu.org/lgbt-rights/harris-et-al-v-mcdonnell-et-a.

Roast Salmon with Salsa for Two
From EatingWell: December 2005/January 2006, EatingWell Serves Two

- 1 medium plum tomato, roughly chopped
- 1/2 small onion, roughly chopped
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and quartered
- 1 small jalapeño pepper, seeded and roughly chopped
- 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 or 3 dashes hot sauce
- 8 ounces center-cut salmon fillet, skinned (see Tip) and cut into 2 portions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place tomato, onion, garlic, jalapeño, vinegar, chili powder, cumin, salt and hot sauce to taste in a food processor; process until finely chopped and uniform.
- Place salmon in a medium roasting pan; spoon the salsa on top. Roast until the salmon is just cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: The salsa (Step 2) will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
- Tip: To skin a salmon fillet: Place a fish fillet on a clean cutting board, skin side down. Starting at the tail end, slip the blade of a long, sharp knife between the fish flesh and the skin, holding the skin down firmly with your other hand. Gently push the blade along at a 30° angle, separating the fillet from the skin without cutting through either.

Erik Spoelstra (born November 1, 1970) is an American professional basketball coach and the current head coach of the National Basketball Association's Miami Heat. He is the first Filipino-American head coach in the NBA, as well as the first Filipino-American head coach of any North American professional sports team. From 2001 to 2008, he served as assistant coach/director of scouting for the team. He coached the Heat to 148 wins and three playoff appearances, including a trip to the 2011 NBA Finals, in his first three seasons.
He is the son of Dutch-Irish-American Jon Spoelstra, who was an NBA executive for the Portland Trail Blazers, Denver Nuggets, Buffalo Braves and New Jersey Nets, and the grandson of the late Watson Spoelstra, a sportswriter in the Detroit area. His mother, Elisa Celino, is from San Pablo, Laguna in the Philippines.
Spoelstra grew up in Portland, Oregon, where he graduated from Jesuit High School in 1988 and from the University of Portland in 1992.
At the University of Portland, Spoelstra was the Pilots' starting point guard for four years, averaging 9.2 points, 4.4 assists and 2.4 rebounds per game, and was named the West Coast Conference Freshman of the Year. He is a member of Portland's 1,000-point club. Spoelstra was on the court as Hank Gathers collapsed and died during the 1990 WCC Tournament.

When using converted coolers as mash tuns, which type seems to work better for you. Round Igloo type coolers with false bottoms seem like they would drain nicely, but the rectangle style seems like it would be easier to stir the mash. Does one have any advantage over the other or is it just a matter of personal preference?
I used a round 10 gallon orange cooler with a false bottom for about 1 year, worked fine.
eventually the plastic interior warped and split - probably 30-40 batches total before that happened.
My 6 Tap Long Draw Tower Build:http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/long...-tower-271578/
It is really just personal preference if you are batch sparging. If you want to fly sparge, then a taller cooler will give a deeper grain bed.
I use a red 10 gallon with a copper manifold and it works great, only loses 1 degree per hour even in the winter and its red!
i've used a 58 qt rectangular with batch sparging for many years, and it works great. run about 78% efficiency along with my jsp mill, so it's all good
1: Honey Malt APA
2: Roasted ESB (mistake by the LHBS in recipe)
3: Skeeter Pee
Fermenting: Hoegarden Saison, German Pilsner
Thank you for your input everyone.
Put me down for round cooler, fly sparge also. My only problem is that there is a limit to size. I would like to bump up to 10 gal batches, and a 10 gal mash tun will not cut it. I have not seen any that are bigger and round.

I use a 48qt rectangle Colman with a PVC manifold. I also batch sparge using a rain style sparge arm mounted in the lid of the cooler. While I love my system I have to pay VERY CLOSE attention to my rate of flow in and out while sparging to avoid compacting the grain.

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- This year's cranberry harvest is expected to be about 11 million barrels worldwide, or about the same as last year's.
That's according to Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc., the nation's largest cranberry processor. Ocean Spray is owned by the farmers that supply it with cranberries.
The Massachusetts-based company released its estimate of the global cranberry harvest on Monday. It expects the global crop to be between 11.1 million and 11.5 million barrels. Each barrel weighs 100 pounds.
Wisconsin is the nation's largest cranberry producer, followed by Massachusetts.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture announced last spring that it would buy up to $5 million worth of cranberry products for domestic food assistance programs to help shore up prices. Cranberry prices fell after an unexpected jump in production in Canada.

Posted Sunday, July 1, 2012 --- 7:41 p.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The state Department of Natural Resources is warning people to keep fireworks out of state parks and forests.
Wisconsin State Parks Program Chief Ranger Jason Fritz says fireworks are illegal in the parks and forests and rangers will strictly enforce the ban. Citations can run up to $200 and parents can be held liable for any fires their children start with fireworks.
Fritz says sparklers are allowed in parks and forests, but rangers would rather not see them because they're fire hazards.
The DNR has been monitoring dry conditions across southern Wisconsin. The agency has imposed burning restrictions in 11 counties. Barring rain ahead of the July 4th holiday, wildfire risk in southern Wisconsin is expected to remain high.

It was some years ago that I first saw inviting rows of vegetables springing out of the fertile soil of the Growing Space in its plot beside the old Quaker meeting house. It is part of Wincanton's Healthy Living Centre and its basis is the straightforward conviction that growing things - working with soil, seeds, crops and natural materials - is good for us, and perhaps especially good for those of us who are lonely, anxious or depressed. And recently I met three people (two trained horticulturists and one trained as both therapeutic counsellor and teacher) who are involved in the Well Bean project, a development of the same basic idea, but taking it out of the town into villages, schools, isolated farms and cottages, and to people unlikely or unable to get into town.
These outreach officers work in allotments, private gardens or even window boxes, and seek to bring to people the reward of gardening, growing and cooking their own produce, taking part in a conservation project, baking bread, handling wool, walking the woods and fields, or just, as the leaflet puts it, "getting out and making the most of our outstanding countryside". In a garage at the centre, a man was ingeniously adapting a bicycle so that it could operate a liquidiser mounted behind the saddle. Primary school children will insert their own fruit, apply their own pedal power, and drink their own resultant smoothie (no additives, no use of fossil fuels). We talked about primary school allotments, and the wonder of sowing a seed for the first time, watching plants grow, cropping, cooking and eating them. No need for adult pressure to eat your greens. We hear much of current threats to the good things we associate with traditional country life. The Well Bean project aims to conserve some of best.
