The World's 6 Known Supervolcanoes
List of all supervolcano locations in the world. Supervolcano is a word that sounds pretty silly. It's not just a regular volcano, it's SUPER. Just SUPER! But these calderas live up to the "super" in their name. A supervolcano can rain superheated rocks and debris down over great distances. An eruption of that magnitude would fill the atmosphere with ash, sulfuric acid, sulfur dioxide and could potentially cause (and actually has, in the ancient past) a new Ice Age. Volcanic eruptions are categorized by the VEI (Volcanic Explosivity Index) and the scale goes from 0-8 with 0 being non-explosive and 8 being a supervolcanic eruption. In other words, as life-eliminating as you can get. You might think of these kinds of volcanos as existing only in prehistoric times, but you would be wrong. If you've ever asked yourself, 'Self? Are there any supervolcanoes that threaten life in modern times?', the answer would be six. There are SIX known, active Supervolcanos in the world today. Six. And if you want more volcano lists check out the worst volcanic eruptions and death by volcano lists.

The Yellowstone CalderaUnbeknownst to most, Yellowstone National Park sits on a subterranean chamber of molten rock and gasses so vast that it is arguably one of the largest active volcanoes in the world. A magma chamber not far below the surface fuels all the volcanic attractions that Yellowstone is famous for. The last major eruption at Yellowstone, some 640,000 years ago, ejected 8,000 times the ash and lava of Mount St. Helens. It is alive and well today, and is the scientific basis for the hilarious volcanic explosion seen in the movie 2012 that blew up Woody Harrelson and, somehow, NOT John Cusack.l< << PREV 1 of 6 NEXT >>

|Critic Rating Excellent

U.S. News Review
Rosewood Mayakoba fully immerses guests in the Riviera Maya's beauty through its architecture and design. Not only is it flanked by the region's famed crystalline sands and lush jungle, the resort is also constructed from local materials, like Yucatán limestone and regional wood. Visitors appreciated the private outdoor deck and heated plunge pool attached to an already spacious suite. And the welcome tequila, daily restocked fruit bowl and personal butler services exemplify an above-par level of hospitality. However, guests are quick to note the room rates are high, especially since they don't include meals at Rosewood Mayakoba's three restaurants, access to the adjacent El Camaleón Golf Course or treatments at Sense, A Rosewood Spa. You'll find this Rosewood outpost just north of downtown Playa del Carmen in the Mayakoba resort complex.

There is a basic test to sort out in the start. If you are ok in c++ and know a bit of trees and stuff this test should be a cake walk. The technical interview was one of the most stupid or easiest interview I gave in an IT firm. They asked nothing beyond stuff done in 12 standard and a couple if puzzle (which he said is ok if i dont answer). Though the tech guy was chill and was in a joking mood. The HR is very general.

A lot of strange critters can be found in Texas and armadillos are amongst them. Join the ranger for a 30-minute talk at the Acorn Bird Blind to learn just how unique these little animals are. The Acorn Bird Blind is located north of the main campground loop at the end of the path between campsites 39 and 41. Remember to bring a flashlight to all nighttime programs.


text: There are two kinds of God-fearing entertainment consumers in this world: those who believe the Lord is okay with them reading Stephen King and the like, and those who don't. For the latter, there's Christian-publishing phenom Frank Peretti. The author has his strengths (1986's This Present Darkness was a sleep-with-the-light-on page-turner), but Monster is as dumb as a box of hair. It's about bigfoot. Seriously: bigfoot. A grunty, stinky mess of them who abduct a stuttering woman named Beck. While her husband searches for her, Beck develops a deeper appreciation for the mysterious, misunderstood, murderous beasts. (Of course she does.) Call it Sasquatch Stockholm syndrome. Monster is flabby and not very thrilling, filled with undercooked attacks on evolution (the book's only distinguishing ''Christian'' trait, beyond some bland God-speak) and curious notions about female empowerment. To paraphrase Genesis, it is not good.

Spiritual Warfare in the South Bronx--Poverty Breeds Violence Against Women!
In this place of healing is where I find myself, in this place of healing is where I loose it all and in this place of healing is where I am reborn.
It's the brightest, sunniest block in the South Bronx, 140th street between Brook and Willis Avenue, the address I would be coming to for next 12 years of my life.
I am 24 years old, it is my first day of work and I am walking towards my job thinking, hum, this place is not as bad as people say it is. At the same time I can hear my mother's voice, why the Bronx? Can't you find a job in another place? Remember, take off your jewelry, don't come home late, and definitely do not have any money on you, if you do put it in your socks!
My mother worked in a factory in the Bronx when she first arrived in NYC, an immigrant from the Dominican Republic during the 80's. For more than ten years, she took the cross town bus on 149th Street and Third Avenue all the way to Manhattan on the other side. Through her window she witnessed the violence that had taken over the community; the prostitution, the crack/cocaine epidemic, the homelessness, the robbing, the abandoned buildings and the sprouting harm reduction organizations providing needles to the community.
Twenty years later, I land a job only 9 blocks away. The Bronx was considered a world away from any other borough in New York City, you just didn't go there unless you where already there. But today was different, I was going to a "real" job. I had one semester left before I graduated college and this was the start of my career. My major was community health education and I was eager and ready to educate the young women in this community.
I remember it like it was yesterday, it was my first day at work and as I walked down the street, I wondered what my mother was talking about. Why was she so scared? Today all I could see was a tree lined street that had basements filled with not for profit organizations providing programming for the community and I would be working in one of them.
I couldn't believe my eyes when I walked into Casa Atabex Ache because somehow the sun had managed to light up the whole basement. I was excited to be in this all women organization but I was scared at the end of the day when we had to close down by throwing away the waters in the four corners, turning off the candle on the altar at the center of the room and mopping the floor with peppermint soap to restore the energy in the space for the next day.
As the weeks went by, I started second guessing what I was doing in this place. This is not the community health that I had learned in school, in fact, in my first staff meeting I was told that in this place my diploma did not mean anything, to get ready because I was about to unlearn what I had just learned and get re-educated within a race, class and gender analysis. I had worked so hard for my diploma that I stormed out of the meeting and didn't know if I was coming back.
While I was mad at these women, something about what they were saying was very intriguing to me so I came back. I started working with the young women in the community and my first participant, I don't remember her name but I will never forget her arms, her chest, her legs. She was about 13 years old and she had just finished cutting herself with pieces of glass from a bottle she had broken across the street in the school yard park. I thought I was going to die, I had never seen something like this before. Immediately, I wanted to use the skills I learned in school and call the police or social services because clearly this young lady needed lots of help and I was not equipped to handle it. When I told my supervisor what was happening and what my game plan was, she said " there is nothing wrong with her, please go outside and ask the young women what she was thinking about before she did it and then tell her what her options are; she is an expert of her life; she just needs a safe space to heal" and by the way we do not call the police in this organization, we do not work with social services and we do not do mandated reporting. I did exactly what they told me and then I sat in the middle of our healing space and screamed and cried. I couldn't believe we didn't do anything about it, I didn't want to have this young women in my conscious if she walked out of the organization and killed herself. I screamed for me and I scream for her, I screamed at how contradicting this space was to everything I knew, I screamed until the words "I quit" came out of my mouth and I cried all the way home.
Its 2011 and I am currently the Executive Director of CASA and I have seen the same look and concern in all the women I have mentored and supervised since then. The tables have turned and now I get to defend the need for a sacred space by and for women of color both from community residents and from the funding world. We have been called an organization of lesbians, witches, and santeras by our own community and we have had to defend our spiritual/cultural politics as social justice tools within the funding world. You see, creating and sustaining a women's organization is hard in its self but when you add spirituality, self empowerment, healing, going against systems and institutions by creating collectives of women on the frontlines, then you are no longer organizing. You can't measure healing, its not direct action and certainly not service provision under funders request for proposal. Instead women organizations like this are considered terrorist group organizing spiritual warfare against governments.
Since I have been on the front lines I have watched over 20 women of color organizations in New York City close down. I have watched the women of these organizations burn out or die as they balance both living in the community they are fighting for and creating organizations within these very communities to fill in the gaps the government won't. During these current tough economic times I struggle to sustain CASA as it's the only organization for and by women of color in the South Bronx and the only women of color healing and organizing center in New York City that is left.
Casa Atabex Ache found its home in Mott Haven, South Bronx in 1994. Rising from the ashes of a once " Burning South Bronx", Casa stands as one of the pillars of the movement building that was happening in this community; given the repression it suffered during the late 1970's and 1980's when it lost many activists to imprisonment and the social ills of oppression such as alcoholism and drugs. According to the US News MSNBC, there were two events that caused the destruction of the South Bronx, " the opening of the massive Co-Op City complex in the East Bronx and the passing of rent-control laws in the city which left landlords with no option but to find a new way to compensate for the rise in vacancy and deteriorated buildings :arson. This time was called the "Bronx is Burning", as it lost over 40 percent of its housing stock to fires the landlord started and more than 300,000 residents left the community."
However, in an article by Spring Into Action New York City, "the troubles of the South Bronx can be traced to 1963 with the completion of one of Robert Moses' urban development projects, the Cross Bronx Expressway. This highway physically divided the area, displacing families and businesses", which in turn gave rise to a huge migration leaving the vulnerable behind.
In essence for three decades the Bronx was abandoned by the government and left to its demise. Abandoned buildings and abandoned people create a community where poverty thrives. Poverty breeds violence and as a result you get a crime infested, drug trafficking and drug addicted people, prostitution and dis-ease infected neighborhoods like that of the South Bronx well into the 1990's killing generations of families.
In the same way, poverty also breeds revolutions amongst nations and within countries & communities. Often times these revolutions are created by the women in the community because the men are in prison, addicted to drugs or serving in wars. Noting that a majority of Mott Haven households in the South Bronx are headed by females, Casa Atabex Ache correctly chose to implement community change via the female. Inspired by a shared history in community activism the founders of Casa envisioned a grassroots organization that would provide women of color with the necessary support and information needed to embark on journeys of self healing and recovery; unlike the multitude of service providers in the South Bronx that sought to "diagnose and treat" community residents.
Further, Casa strategically based itself in Mott Haven as the aftermath of the "Burning of the South Bronx" resulted in it becoming the poorest congressional district in the nation, with the highest teen pregnancy and infant mortality rate. Recently, it was just ranked the unhealthiest of New York's 62 counties by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's report on County Health Rankings 2010.
What was once referred to as a war zone, is now bombarded with non-profit organizations in harm reduction, mental health service provision, HIV/AIDS organizations, and housing projects filled with recovering residents. It is surrounded by four jails, group homes, foster care agencies and domestic violence shelters keeping the residents sedated and imprisoned in their own community and looking for answers outside of themselves.
Nevertheless, for the past 6 years Casa has had to fight to sustain itself in this community. As the Director, being on the frontlines has been an extreme challenge because I am receiving resistance on all fronts. Fighting over already scarce resources and not fitting neatly into funders request has left the organization to come up with a innovative ways of sustainability. Casa is completely run by dedicated volunteers who provided pro bono workshops, collaborating with organizations to events. Staff recycles money and asks their families to make food, going to pantries to get food, investing personal money to create merchandise and medicine for those without healthcare while stepping up our spirituality and intent fully creating abundance, prosperity and health altars, praying and lighting candles.
In addition, spirituality continues to be a taboo in communities of color. Immigration has strategically stripped us from our culture to take away our individual and collective power of healing and transformation. Internalized oppression continues to fold women spaces and communities at large. We no longer need institutions to imprison us, judge us or medicate us, we know how to do it ourselves and to each other. Recently, the article, "Out of the Spiritual Closet: Organizers Transforming the Practice of Social Justice", validates the need for a movement with spirituality at the core. " Many of us come into this work because we, or the people we love have experienced deep injustice, without awareness, we recycle trauma and create new wounds within the movement".
In conclusion, the fight is far from over. Women will always be the backbones of their families and by extension their communities, however, women must first over come historical and persistent social, cultural, and institutional norms that keep women silenced, dis-empowered and invisible. As funders go green, give money to the prison industrial complex and government money go to sustain wars, women will still remain the largest population of the world and we have needs. Creating CBO's is not a choice and will never be an option for poor communities and forgotten places. Our liberation depends on women's ability to create the world we want to live in today!

Dear Dayanara
Thank you so much for sharing a story that gives me a window into this world.
Your persistence is absolutely amazing to me and I admire you deeply.
It is through the good work that you are doing that so many lives will be altered and changed in
positive ways. I know that the struggle may be ever present, but determination will also be
ever present with strong women like you leading the way!
You are a force for change and empowerment!
With Great Admiration,
I love this piece so much. You paint such a detailed and beautiful picture of your work and really show how difficult it can be to construct lasting change in a community. You also do a nice job of tracing the historical trends that contributed to the destruction of the Bronx in the 1970's, I find the cross-bronx expressway particularly interesting as it also contributed to the start of the hip hop movement in the United States. Well done well done well done.
Also I love your opening, it really grabbed me!!
Sarah Meyer
Warrior Goddess are you
Thank you for sharing this brave story of yours. You are a Warrior Goddess and there is nothing that can break that spirit. Continue to share your voice and lift women one day at a time. Your spirituality and faith in yourself will take you a long way no matter the obstacle in the way YOU will overcome the adversity and shine bright!
Palante Hermana!!
Well done dear!
Dear friend,
Am excited to your piece, am aware of things far away from me. Here am captured i cant come out dear....Women will always be the backbones of their families and by extension their communities, however, women must first over come historical and persistent social, cultural, and institutional norms that keep women silenced, dis-empowered and invisible. As funders go green, give money to the prison industrial complex and government money go to sustain wars, women will still remain the largest population of the world and we have needs. Creating CBO's is not a choice .
You rock my world.I hate poverty, i dont want people to sleep without food, oh God forbid.Keep voicing my friend you are a hero among all.The sounding is very clear, roar as much as it takes you.
All the best

Dear Dayanara, I loved your
Dear Dayanara,
I loved your writing here as always. You are indeed a very gutsy woman as one of the other posters above here described you and you come across as being a true warrior for women, fierce and protective. I would love to come to Casa Atabex sometime and see how your organization works to create that sacred space for healing. It is an interesting idea to spend time creating a sacred space for women to come and heal by themselves and for themselves and I would love to learn more about it.
Dear Dayanara,
I was immediately sucked into your story. It is incredibly interesting to find out about this neighborhood and community in the US that I knew almost nothing about. You hear about different boroughs in New York, and about the violence that thrives there, but rarely do you get to hear an insider's perspective.
Casa sounds like it is doing some great work, but I would love to know more about the specific programs you offer. I think it is very interesting to focus on creating a healing space for people, instead of focusing on diagnoses and treatment. I think a lot of times, social services do forget that people are the experts of their own life, and often do know what they need (not all the time, but at least a good part of the time!).
I am curious about your tone in regards to the other social services (such as foster care, half way homes, etc) in your community. You seem to have a negative perspective towards what they do, when you state "It is surrounded by four jails, group homes, foster care agencies and domestic violence shelters keeping the residents sedated and imprisoned in their own community and looking for answers outside of themselves." Could you explain this a little more to me?
Great job, keep up the good work!

Dear Dee, I definitely agree
Dear Dee,
I definitely agree with you about your assessment of the potential for violence within these institutions--and that much of this stems from a lack of cultural responsiveness, and just plain old institutional racism and sexism that is inherent in many of our systems!
Thank you for your detailed and very thoughtful response. I thought your piece was brilliant, and I love hearing you say how you could make it even better with more comparison between Casa and the other institutions.
Great work!

The cartoon gangbang gallery
A black orgy videoadult threesome story - I turned a corner in the alley and looked over my shoulder to see if the guys were following me. I screamed as I ran into a hard body, which turned me around quickly and trapped me in a bear hug. I tried to kick the guy, who reeked of alcohol and cologne. I gagged and the guy leaned down to kiss my neck. I started crying quietly and saw five more guys approaching. One man who looked about 20 stopped forward and crouched in front of me. His ice blue eyes bore into my brown ones. I froze, petrified. The man wickedly smiled and pinched my cheeks. "She's perfect," he said laughing. "Take her inside."
A free party sex video cliperotic only sex story text - She swore that if he magically appeared, she'd hike her dress up, bend over the desk and let him have her way with her. "Oh God," she thought to herself, "those are the thoughts that are making it impossible to work today." She reached down between her legs and up her tight black dress and traced her finger up across her soaking pussy. The slight contact sent chill bumps up and down her smooth, dark caramel skin. It felt so good. God, what she wouldn't give to have the chance to rub her clit over and over, making herself cum again and again.
A gangbang facial teenmature sexy dress - I then felt a warm stream of cum hit my face, then another and another. I instinctively stuck my tongue out and licked up the cum that had hit my lips. I then went back to the cock that was now ramming my ass. I started begging for more and more, saying how great he was and how much I wanted his cum. I then felt him pull out. I knew what was coming and my ass started to search for its next cock while I opened my mouth and stuck my tongue out for the cum I knew was coming. I wasn't disappointed. Another cock found my ass and the second guys cum found my mouth.

"Pussy," he responded with a grin and returned to the other room. "Now where were we?" Russell continued, "You don't think I can recover... wha, ya think I had help or somethin'? Though with your cold pussy that's not a bad idea." "I don't know what to think," his wife mused. Russell chimed in, "Think about fucking me a lot more often than you have the past years." He reached under her robed and crushed a nipple. She screeched. "And remember what I said last night what would happen." Chad rushed back in, "Everything all right?"

So yesterday I went exploring new areas to surf that would pick up the north swell. I am a steel pier regular, but just was not working there at all.Anyway, I ended-up surfing around Brigatine.
My question is.... where would I go to find decent waves in Brigatine? Where I was at, the swell was ok, but the waves were a little weak and mushy.
I'm not expecting anyone to tell me where the secret spots are, but maybe just give me a rough idea where to look, so that I have a place to go for the next north swell.

This is why I haven't blogged in a while. If this makes no sense to you - then just return to your everyday life. There is nothing for you here.
I have now been taking a tiny white pill every night for almost two weeks. And I'm coming up on the first twenty four hour mark of not crying. A record I have been keeping since early November. Dealing with depression is something I have unfortunately gotten used to in my life. Chronically. However- I recently hit a wall and realized something was really really really not right.
Enter the tiny white pill. And hopefully some more even keeled emotions. (Well- for me, anyway...)
I'm sure some of you have concerns about taking hormones. I really don't want to hear about it right now. First of all- I trust my doctor and his judgement. Second of all- I understand that there can be side effects - but there are also side effects to being locked in a padded room at Angola stringing Cheerios for recreation time due to the fact you threw a fourth grader through a window because he was tapping his pencil on his desk while you were teaching the words to "Frosty the Snowman".
Suffice it to say that I've been a little on edge.
(I actually have harmed no children at all while teaching happy holiday songs this season. Only because I have Jesus in my heart.)
I do not look nearly as beautiful and stricken as Olivia Walton did when she went through the change in 55 minutes, including commercial breaks. And I also haven't had Grandma to shoo away the bratty kids and give poetic explanation about the "seasons of life" while sappy music played in the background.
Before I make a spiritual point (which I surprisingly intend to do), I just want to share that our stupid cat has chewed through two iphone charger cords. While they were plugged in- charging. I cannot understand how this is possible without a fatality. I fully intend to force him to watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation in the next few days. Maybe the sound of Dennis Quaid drawling "that's fried pussycat" will open his eyes to the possible ramifications of cord chewing. It's worth a try, anyway. Those cords aren't free.
Not long ago, I took an early morning drive through the frozen tundra. Or maybe just through frozen Louisiana parishes with exotic names like Catahoula and Tensas. Places that sound very impressive but are really just row upon row of crops and pasture land. I was on my way to pick up the kids after Thanksgiving break- driving from Alexandria to Meridian via Tallulah. I decided to listen to the New Young Messiah. Larnelle Harris was singing "every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill made low". I have sung that song all my life. Quoted the verse all my life. But the Lord tapped me on the shoulder.
For the first time I considered the first part - that every valley shall be exalted. I've always focused on the mountains and hills being made low. That's a very nice thought for someone who has climbed up as many mountains as I have. Especially lately.
But a valley being exalted. Hmm...
I've also been in my share of valleys. Some I have pitched head first into without really knowing what hit me till I woke up lying on the mirey bottom. Some I have slid down into gradually- bit by bit- trying desperately to avoid it, but still having to finally admit I was in a pit.
There are all kinds of things I can do to try to cheer myself up. Lift my spirits. Keep my chin up. I have even learned through the years how to "pull myself up by my bootstraps". But to "be exalted"? That's something only my Almighty Father can do.
As I drove through the frosty morning- He reminded me of how many times he has done just that- exalted my valleys. Raised up the bottom of the pit until I could look back and see how far He has brought me. Look ahead to see a future full of promise and hope- no matter what my circumstances.
By the time Steve Green had his turn- singing "I Know That My Redeemer Liveth"- I had my hand and heart raised in praise. To the One I KNOW I shall see 'stand in the latter days upon the Earth'.
Praise and thanksgiving to the One who exalts my valleys.
Gonna try now to charge up with my ONE remaining cord as the lights go out here in Pizza Hut Heights.

Someday these giants could be floating off the Oregon coast
— By Kirsten Korosec on February 6, 2014, 9:31 AM PST
I wish philippines will also have this.
What a waste, at least until the 1st maritime accident!
Why is it so hard for those giving out subsidies to grasp that windmills are the least efficient ways of capturing energy?
Does no one in a position to suggest this junk know any engineering?
http://iopscience.iop.org/1748-9326/8/1/015021/ (video, note axes)
Local solar generates 200W/sq meter, with another doubling of that on the way. Wind, fully deployed, might generate 2W/sq meter, and require ~2/3 nameplate power from gas-turbine backup.
There's more than enough sunlit human structure around the world than needed to meet all peak daytime loads. Windmills are wasteful and unnecessary.
Local solar, EVs, efficient storage and advanced nuclear are all that are needed for thousands of years. And we'd better get cracking on that nuclear, being decades behind JFK's goals: http://tinyurl.com/6xgpkfa
Combustion power gone by 2000? Oops.
This is the real oops that makes climate change & sea rise look like peanuts before 2050: http://tinyurl.com/n2qnos6
Dr. A. Cannara 650 400 3071
200 million for 30 Mw? Seems awful pricey to me. I found an estimate on line for expansion of a land based wind farm of 134 Mw for 262 million. I would imagine that preventative maintenance on these won't be cheap either.
After decades of building petroleum platforms that endure tough environments, I'm sure they can manage the same here. On the positive side, it's not an eye sore like those drilling platforms we have off the costs of Southern California.
They'd better build them strong. The Pacific Ocean off the Oregon coast is a very rough environment, but it is quite windy nearly all of the time.

Ray Gray of Newport, North Carolina, has loved boats for a long time but did not build one until recently. After months of research Ray Gray relied on issues 116, 117, and 118 of WoodenBoat magazine to build a Shellback designed by Joel White. He thought that design might be the exact degree of difficulty he wanted to test his skills. Ray used okoume plywood, white oak, and mahogany on the hull. He epoxied everything leaving just a few fasteners in the boat.
Daniel Swenson "just followed the instructions" in "How to Build a Shellback Dinghy" by Eric Dow and found the process "very straightforward." Building NATANGA took five years, during which Daniel experienced the loss of "three close people...but the project was always there for grounding. My guess is that boats are there for a lot of people." The dinghy's name is translated from Swahili as "I loiter" or "I waste time," which is what Daniel plans to do on the nearby lakes of Tuttle Creek and Pottawatomie.
Dan Kelly of Weirton, WV, built this Joel White-designed Shellback dinghy in 2002. He modified the plans a little bit in using a titanium mast and titanium keel to keep her light. He also enclosed the area forward of the mast with cedar and filled it with foam insulation to add to her buoyancy. Dan adds that he has been a woodworker for 30 years but few things he has constructed have given him as much pleasure as this boat.
Evan Taylor of Fonthill, Ontario built this Joel White-designed Shellback dinghy in 2001. He used okoume plywood planking with white oak trim. The seats are pine. His wife sewed the sail from a Sailrite kit. Evan sails her on Lake Erie. He says it "was as much fun building it as it is to sail."

Las Vegas Gun Crimes Lawyer
Las Vegas Weapons Charges Attorney
If you've been charged with a Las Vegas gun crime, our firm will take an early, thorough, and powerful position on your behalf. If convicted, you might serve a mandatory sentence in a state prison.
Speak to a lawyer as soon as you realize you're in trouble. It never helps to speak with the police or prosecutors without an attorney, they will use whatever you say against you.
Call our law firm and make arrangements for a free consultation about your firearms charges. We will challenge gun crime charges that expose you to the potential risk of serving prison time when you should not.
If you were picked up for selling drugs and the police officers decide you were "close to a gun" – the effects can be much more serious than the usual simple drug offense. We will work to successfully get the evidence in weapons offenses cases thrown out.
A possible defense to a weapons charge may be to show that, although the firearm was in the car you used, it was not your gun, it was not your vehicle, or the drugs weren't your drugs. If you've been stopped and searched unlawfully, evidence could be suppressed or thrown out since it was found through illegal search and seizure. We are fully familiar with your rights under the State and US Constitutions with regards to illegal search and seizure.
Any police arrest for a violent crime becomes more serious for the accused when weapons charges are involved, such as domestic violence, robbery, and sex crimes. Simple assault could become aggravated assault or attempted murder. A common altercation can be interpreted as gang violence.
Phone our office right away to talk with a Las Vegas gun crimes lawyer. We shall strongly represent your rights under federal law and the laws and regulations of our state.
Las Vegas Weapons Charges Lawyer
If you have been arrested for unlawful possession of a firearm you will need to have a great Las Vegas gun charge lawyer to make sure that the prosecution doesn't achieve their wishes of a long sentence. Being charged for weapons charges can have serious effects. In most states, there are mandatory sentences that increase an original charge when a weapon is employed in the commission of a crime.
Because of this, many prosecutors will use the illegal possession of a weapon as an element of a combined set of charges that can produce a significantly harsher sentence if you are convicted. When you are arrested for illegal possession of a weapon or gun, having a Las Vegas criminal lawyer that is familiar with the complexities of these kinds of crimes is very important.
There are particular agencies in the Federal government that look into federal weapons charges. The federal prosecutors focus exclusively on these kinds of crimes and pursue them strongly. Your gun charges attorney Las Vegas will know the methods of the ATF and FBI as well as the various measures that is to be taken if you are going to be tried in federal court.
The way that the judicial system operates in federal court is different in a state court. This can be very bewildering for anybody who is not familiar with the processes and doesn't know very well what to expect.
Your lawyer can tell you how your trial may be done in federal court and may have to prepare your defense for both state and federal court. Among the weapons charges that you might be charged with are:
- Armed robbery
- Felon in possession of a firearm
- Illegal sale of a firearm
- Illegal discharge of a weapon
- Possession of prohibited weapons
- Trafficking of firearms
Conviction of weapons charges may result in a long time in state or federal prison, fines, parole, as well as other expenses. In addition, when found guilty of this kind of felony one is no longer able to carry weapons later on, an inability to get jobs, get professional licenses, and live an ordinary life. This is especially true if the weapons charge is part of a combined charge.
Once you meet with one of our lawyers, they are going to advise you on what you can expect at trial. The lawyer will meet with witnesses and investigate the weapons crimes and, if a combined charge, the additional crimes that you are charged with. He will work aggressively to have sure that your defense plan is sound and will work to get the charges decreased so that they don't have the bad impact on your life that this kind of felony can lead to.
Weapons charges are very grave and it truly is crucial that you speak to an experienced and knowledgeable attorney whenever you are charged with this crime. By having your attorney along with you at the time of questioning, you won't be deceived into making admissions that may be used against you in court.
It is very important for you to talk with your lawyer only and don't answer any questions until your attorney is together with you. If you have been arrested for possession of a firearm, make certain you find the best Las Vegas weapons charges attorney to represent you.
Firearm offenses are high priority criminal cases for prosecutors both in federal and state courts. The effects are severe, particularly if the gun is connected with any other crime, the gun is discharged. And in case you have a previous felony conviction, a firearm offense can bring about many years in prison; and unless you've had your Firearm Rights Restored, you face a long mandatory jail term.
If you've been charged with a Las Vegas Gun Crime or a Federal Gun Crime, you should speak to a competent, expert Las Vegas Gun Crimes Attorney who has knowledge with all aspects of gun crimes and all related charges.
We have the critical knowledge to defend your rights, and discover the best possible end result for your case. Should you have an earlier felony conviction and would like to Restore Your Firearm Rights, we could assist you in that process.

I'm a Federal CSRS retiree. My ex husband draws social security and a multitude of VA benefits. SSA informed me that I was eligible to draw against his SSA, but I declined, as any amount would offset my annuity. But, the more I think, I wonder if it might not benefit me tax wise? I do have a very small SSA of my own. It seems with less 'income' on my 1040, and more SS, there would be improved tax liability.
Hi, Jackie. SS is subject to income tax after certain income limits, so this might be a good question to take to a tax pro who can review your individual situation.
Many years ago I read about spousal benefits based on ex-spouse's Social Security earnings record. Is there a minmum length of time of the marriage to qualify? How do I apply for this benefit? I am within 6-9 months from retirement.
Thank uou in advance for any advice
The marriage had to last 10 years, you must be 62 or over and you can't be remarried. Starting spousal benefits early locks you in–you can't switch to your own benefit later. If you start spousal benefits at your own full retirement age, though, you have the choice of switching to your own benefit at 70. More on benefits for exes at http://www.socialsecurity.gov/retire2/yourdivspouse.htm

No votes yet, be the first!
I wished I had you in Carrickfergus,
Only for nights in Ballygrand,
I would swim over the deepest ocean,
The deepest ocean to be by your side.
But the sea is wide and I can't swim over
And neither have I wings to fly.
I wish I could find me a handy boatman
To ferry me over to my love and die.
My childhood days bring back sad reflections
Of happy days so long ago.
My boyhood friends and my own relations.
Have all passed on like the melting snow.
So I'll spend my days in endless roving,
Soft is the grass and my bed is free.
Oh to be home now in Carrickfergus,
On the long road down to the salty sea.
And in Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stone there as black as ink,
With gold and silver I did support her
But I'll sing no more now till I get a drink.
I'm drunk today and I'm rarely sober,
A handsome rover from town to town.
Oh but I am sick now and my days are numbered
Come all ye young men and lay me down.

Navarre Reports Strong Fiscal Third Quarter 2013 Results
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 4, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Navarre Corp. (Nasdaq:NAVR) ("Navarre"), a vertically integrated, multi-channel platform of e-commerce services and distribution solutions for retailers and manufacturers, reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended December 31, 2012.
Fiscal Q3 2013 Highlights vs. Year-Ago Quarter
- Consolidated net sales from ongoing business increased 19% to $178.3 million;
- Net sales in the e-commerce sales channel increased 72% to $48.3 million;
- Net sales from the distribution of consumer electronics and accessories (CE&A) increased 45% to $47.4 million;

Fiscal Q3 2013 ResultsConsolidated net sales from ongoing business in the fiscal third quarter of 2013 increased 19% to $178.3 million from $150.0 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was approximately split evenly between Navarre's retail distribution segment and the e-commerce and fulfillment services segment, which includes the results of SpeedFC from November 20, 2012 through December 31, 2012. Including $3.5 million from the discontinued home video retail distribution business in the year-ago quarter, consolidated net sales in the fiscal third quarter of 2013 increased 16%. Net sales in the distribution segment from ongoing business during the third quarter increased 6% to $156.9 million from $147.8 million in the year-ago quarter, primarily attributed to the company's key organic growth initiatives.

Plants give me peace!
So the reg is up and running now for almost three days. It works perfectly! Thanks for the guys that helped me through it.
It's cool that it's a sticky now...my first sticky!
I'm just glad that I was able to do this thread. There wasn't anything on actually breaking down a solenoid and cleaning it out. I'm sure this will help people with similar issues in the future.
Plants give me peace!
Thanks Jerrybforl,
This thread gave me enough confidence to try to fix my leak.
I gave it a try and now my leak is gone. It was Teflon thread in the way
The only extra info I can advise is the size of the torx screw heads on the chamber. My 6011A solenoid didn't have a 1/8 head (which is a T10 size). Rather, it was a T9. Hope this helps.
Thanks again!!
Take good Care,

Thanks! I wasn't sure of the size just going off what the guy told me from AP.com. I'm glad it helped you resolve your issue.
Plants give me peace!

Before getting into the challenge, though, cue the record scratch. Photos of Tom Colicchio with hair are few and far between, but we were treated to a new one I haven't seen before, taken around the time Danny Meyer met him for the first time at a restaurant showcase. Quick poll: Which do you prefer, chrome dome Tom or mop top Tom? Both have their charms.
I loved the idea for Brooke's Unkosher restaurant, which would combine Jewish foods that normally aren't meant to go together, like Challah bread and bacon. How deliciously sacrilegious. Gail called Brooke's matzo ball "offensive to [her] people" -- ouch -- and both Tom and Danny wished she'd pushed her concept further by making the ball out of rye. Stefan's German-Thai restaurant, Bangkok via Munich, excited Tom in theory but in execution it fell a little flat. His Thai lobster bisque with shrimp, dumplings, potatoes, and radishes tasted good, but where was the German part? Potatoes alone do not a German dish make. (That sentence gives me a headache). After the soup Stefan served the same mango ice cream lollipop that he did in the season five finale — that Padma forgets nothing — which Danny said was so ordinary it detracted from the soup.
Josh started the top group off. He dedicated his restaurant, Bistro George, to his recently deceased father. He went for simplicity and no fuss. His seared eye of rib eye with cauliflower puree and mushrooms with red wine sauce went over well, but it wasn't quite enough to make him one of the two winners this week.
Sheldon also dedicated his restaurant to a family member: Urbano, his grandfather. He took an untraditional take on a traditional Filipino dish: sour tamarind soup with pork belly, shrimp, and lobster (I don't know what sour tamarind tastes like, but this sounds incredible). Padma, who knew all about sour tamarind soup, noted that it's not typically a pretty dish, but Sheldon managed to make it both authentic and elegant. $10,000 for Sheldon, who turned 30 that day.
At this point, Kristen has won enough money in the competition to not only fund her dream trip to Korea, but to fly there first class and put a down payment on a loft in Gangnam. She co-won this challenge by being a fancy pants — her proposed French restaurant Atelier Kwan would require formal wear, which impressed the judges, who've had maybe a little too much down-home, casual food lately. Her Onsen egg (barely set white, creamier yolk) with camambert-mustard sauce and buttered radishes was a huge hit, as is often the case with Kristen.
Then came my favorite part of the episode. Without knowing who would be eliminated, Kristen and Sheldon had to pick their Restaurant War teams, which would guarantee that one of them would be one man short. Stefan thought he'd be on Kristen's team for sure, but she picked Brooke first. Ouch, Stefan! You've just been Friend-Zoned. Sheldon took Josh — which Kristen might have been relieved about — and then she once again passed Stefan over, choosing Lizzie instead. Kristen seemed disappointed that Sheldon took Stefan next. Of the remaining two chefs, it might have seemed wiser to take Micah, but maybe Kristen predicted that Micah had a good chance of going home when she picked Josie.
NEXT: Never fun being the last one picked

Roosevelt's presidency, had asked Nixon what he was going to do about the oversupply of goods in Vietnam. "I understand we have enough telephone poles over there for 125 years," she commented, " and acres of trucks and other communications equipment." ↑
2Nixon was asked about the presidential campaign of Representative Paul N. "Pete" McCloskey, R-California, but declined to answer on the grounds that the question was political. ↑
3Nixon was asked about a recently issued report by Civil Rights Commission, chaired by Theodore M. Hesburgh, saying "that the Department of HUD appears to be withdrawing from the battle for fair and desegregated housing." ↑

The fine folks of Transport Canada
have certified Diamond's DA20-C1, equipped with the Aspen Avionics
EFD 1000 Primary Flight Display (PFD). The DA20's instrument layout
retains the conventional Airspeed, Altitude, Turn & Bank and
Vertical Speed Indicators, with the Aspen mounted in the center of
the conventional 6-pack.
With this layout and the ability to suppress the Aspen's HSI
functions, Airspeed and Altitude tapes, a traditional instrument
scan can be taught, while activation of the more advanced functions
gives a meaningful introduction to glass cockpits.
"The ability to teach conventional instrument scan, offer
an introduction to glass cockpits, while benefitting from more
reliable solid state technology, make the DA20 with Aspen a
particularly flexible tool for any flight training
operation," said Peter Maurer, President of Diamond Aircraft
ANN's Jim Campbell flew a 200 mile trip the other day under
Aspen EFD guidance and came away VERY impressed with the Aspen
display and the well-thought out interface. We're looking forward
to furnishing a report on the Aspen-equipped DA20 shortly...

Mickey Rourke Ram Jams Fashion Week
Sadly, he seems to have left his drunken cockatoo at home.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
Sadly, he seems to have left his drunken cockatoo at home.
And more celebrity altercations, in our daily gossip wrap-up.
Plus: Is Robert Pattinson on steroids?
We only just now realized how much we've missed Mickey Rourke this summer.
You make the call!
Kanye West, however, is fine with being compared to Michael Jackson. Plus, Jude Law's baby mama revealed, and more, in our daily gossip roundup.
Whatever it takes to get through the grieving process, we're in favor of.
Not surprisingly, Mickey Rourke gets drunk with a cockatoo in the highly anticipated sequel.
This makes us so happy.
At least it looks better than what he wore to the Oscars.
Plus: Monica Belucci joins cursed 'Sorcerer's Apprentice.'
Grub Street encounters Mickey Rourke on the Lower Lower East Side.
For someone with such a colorful, sophisticated fashion sense, Mickey Rourke certainly is dull as a gastronome.
The 'Gourmet' editor shows off her Amy Winehouse, Mickey Rourke, and Gene Simmons costumes.
This can't possibly be good news for the host of 'The Soup.'
Plus: David O. Russell has another project.
It's only his first day, though, so director Jon Favreau still has plenty of time to learn how to spell his name.
Consider the economy saved!
Apparently the actress and healthy-living guru had a hand in Miss Scarlett's recent makeover.
This is the biggest thing since Thunderlips took on Rocky Balboa.

The MOE Grip provides Magpul quality, feel, and durability in an economical, drop-in upgrade for the standard AR15/M16/M4 pistol grip. The ergonomic, hand filling design combines aggressive texturing with storage core capability. With a similar shape to a 'medium' sized MIAD, the one-piece reinforced polymer construction provides simplicity and a reduced cost while still maintaining the durability needed to withstand operational environments. The MOE Grip accepts optional storage cores for gear stowage and includes a basic grip cap. All mounting hardware included.
Made in U.S.A.
