Here are my top five observations from USC's spring-ending scrimmage at the Coliseum:
Quarterback Matt Barkley needs to play better than he did Saturday for the Trojans to have a successful 2011. Yes, I know, he was missing most of his receiving corps, including Robert Woods, and the offensive line is a makeshift crew. But that's no excuse for the accuracy issues Barkley experienced, especially with no blitzing allowed.
(Funny exchange on that subject: "We chose not to blitz," Monte Kiffin said. You chose? "It may not have been my decision," he said. "It might have been somebody [else], a guy with the last name Kiffin.")
On the last drive of the first half, Barkley had tight end Randall Telfer open down the right sideline and overthrew him. On the first drive of the second half, Barkley underthrew a pass for Robbie Boyer, and Brian Baucham intercepted it. And on the last drive of the game, Barkley had Markeith Ambles open down the middle and overthrew him.
Hopefully Barkley will use this film as incentive to work on his accuracy over the summer. He'll have a full complement of weapons come fall. He just has to get them the ball.
2. Picked on no more
Barkley and Jesse Scroggins combined for three interceptions -- bad news for them, good news for a back seven that continued to show signs of improvement in pass coverage.
Baucham, who's the No. 4 cornerback at best coming out of spring, displayed superb hops on his pick of Barkley. Anthony Brown showed he could track the deep ball and make a play on it on his pick of Scroggins. And linebacker Dallas Kelley displayed hands and instincts with a nifty one-handed theft of a Barkley pass over the middle.
"I think we're going to be a lot better," safety T.J. McDonald said. "And we don't even have all the players that we're going to have once fall hits."
All signs, all spring long, point to better pass defense in 2011. It can't be much worse than 2010.
3. Determined Dillon
Curtis McNeal and D.J. Morgan had performed well all spring, so it was no surprise to see more of the same Saturday. Dillon Baxter? That was newsworthy.
It was unclear whether Baxter would play at all after suffering a high ankle sprain April 9, returning to practice for the first time last Thursday and pronouncing himself to be 60-70 percent. Yet there Baxter was, flashing his spring 2010 form with a pair of 30-plus-yard runs en route to 104 yards on 14 carries.
Not that Baxter was perfect. He ran out of bounds at the end of his first long run, drawing the ire of Lane Kiffin and Kennedy Pola.
"Coach P hates that," Baxter said, adding that his position coach prefers that every run end with "some kind of collision.">

Marta Coursey, WSF communications, 206-515-3918 (Seattle)
Many vessels affected by new Coast Guard requirements SEATTLE –The Jumbo, Super, Issaquah and Evergreen State ferry classes – which carry many of the system's 22 million annual riders – have new staffing requirements before they may sail on the waters of Puget Sound, thanks to a new directive from the United States Coast Guard.Washington State Ferries has already added two crewmembers to the Issaquah ferry and will implement the new staffing levels for the others once the USCG issues the revised certificate of inspection for each vessel. The USCG is also adjusting its requirements for staffing levels based on the number of passengers carried on the Super, Issaquah and Evergreen State class vessels. "We appreciate the Coast Guard's allowance for variable staffing levels on some vessels based on the number of passengers," said David Moseley, assistant secretary for the Washington State Department of Transportation, Ferries Division. "On some sailings where our passenger numbers are routinely low, we may be able to sail with one fewer crew member, making the system more cost-effective." WSF is analyzing the costs associated with these revisions. The nation's largest ferry system has been squeezed financially since the loss of the Motor Vehicle Excise Tax in 1999 but has managed with moderate fare increases and some service reductions, in addition to nearly $1 billion in transfers from other transportation accounts since 2000.

WATCH: Louis C.K. Plays Abraham Lincoln As a Standup Comic in SNL Sketch
By Michael Lewittes | 1:23 am, November 4th, 2012VIDEO
Louis C.K. stars as Abraham Lincoln in a filmed "Saturday Night Live" sketch in which the president performs standup at a comedy club and jokes about slavery, his wife, and how he'll be assassinated.
Lincoln jokes about talking to slave owners and explaining "that owning a person is not cool you stupid d*ck."
And after a scene in which he argues with his wife about not having tickets to a play, he tells the audience at the standup club, "My wife is crazy… Literally, historically insane."
But that's not all.
Lincoln cracks that "someone is gonna murder me…I just know I'm totally getting murdered."
He adds that he feels "bad for the detective who has to solve my murder," because the possible suspects are "everyone from the middle of the country down."

CBS 2 - Search Results
Investigators Suspend Search For Missing Dayton Teen
DAYTON, Iowa (AP) -- Iowa authorities have suspended the search for 15-year-old Kathlynn Shepard six days after she and a 12-year-old friend were abducted on Monday.
State and local investigators plan to meet Tuesday to plan the next steps in their search
The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation suspended the search for two days because all the places they expected to find Kathlynn have been searched several times.
Police believe 42-year-old Michael Klunder abducted the girls at their school bus stop in Dayton. The younger girl escaped but Kathlynn hasn't been found.
Klunder committed suicide hours after the younger girl escaped the hog confinement building where he worked.
Special agent Bill Kietzman says law enforcement will regroup this week to determine where to look next for Kathlynn.

Bone Tumor Identified in 120,000-Year-Old Rib of Neandertal
From Famous Cave Excavation Site of Krapina in Central Europe
PHILADELPHIA, PA, June 2013—The first-known definitive case of a benign bone tumor has been discovered in the rib of a young Neandertal who lived about 120,000 years ago in what is now present-day Croatia. The bone fragment, which comes from the famous archaeological cave site of Krapina, contains by far the earliest bone tumor ever identified in the archaeological record. Details of the tumor confirmation, announced by an international research team led by Penn Museum Associate Curator and Paleoanthropologist Janet Monge, is available in a research paper, "Fibrous dysplasia in a 120,000+ year old Neandertal from Krapina, Croatia," in the online scientific journal PLOS ONE.

Passports of the Czech Republic contain biometric codification of face and fingerprints. The so-called "flash-passport" issued faster for a limited period of time, does not contain biometric features. Passports which do contain biometric features do not require a tourist visa to the United States upon prior registration via the Electronic System for Travel Authorization https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/. Passports which do not contain the biometric features do require a US tourist visa. The passports of the Czech Republic are valid for the entire period for which they were issued or 3 months if surname is changed due to marriage.
The Embassy of the Czech Republic in Tel Aviv accepts applications for passport after scheduling an appointment at the phone number 03-691 8283 or sending us a message (with your phone number) firstname.lastname@example.com You can collect your new passport only at the place where you have filed the application. The average processing time is two months. The fee (1.200 CZK, approx. 200 NIS - subject to exchange rate) is paid upon collecting of the passport.
Documents necessary to process the application:
- Identity Document - valid Czech passport, valid Czech identity card;
- Confirmation of Czech Citizenship - valid Czech passport, valid Czech identity card, certificate of citizenship not older than one year (Note: if the certificate has been issued more than one year ago, new citizenship inquiry needs to be conducted);

- Confirmation of the Personal Birth Number - valid Czech passport, valid Czech identity card, registry document issued in the Czech Republic - birth certificate, marriage certificate, or birth number document;
- Declaration of Czech Citizenship - to be filled out at the Embassy upon applying;
- Photograph
Photograph can be of the standard 4,5 x 3,5 cm size or larger (for example 5 x 5 cm). We suggest to arrange for the photograph in a photo shop near the Embassy which already has an experience with the specifics - the consular section can provide a contact.
The photograph for biometric passport must satisfy all the following criteria:
- Photograph may not be older than six months.
- Photograph must be in sharp focus and clear, printed on a high quality paper at high resolution.
- The face must be centered and must cover most of the photograph - the focus may not be too close up or too distant. The head may not be tilted.

- Eyes must be open and entirely visible.
- Red eyes or shadows on the face are not permitted.
- Eyes behind the glasses must be entirely visible, flash reflections are not permitted, neither are tinted glasses.
- Head covers are not permitted except for religious reasons.
- Background must be single- and light-colored or neutral, contrasts must be natural, light must be uniform across the whole background.
- Some leniency is allowed in case of photographs of children younger than 5, for example, the mouth can be open a little bit, position can be slightly tilted. Eyes must be open. Accompanying person or his/her hands must not show, neither toys or pacifier.
Passports for Children:
- Children younger than 15 years are issued a passport valid for five years. Minors between 15-18 years are issued a passport valid for ten years. "Flash-passport" is issued for six months.
- Parents/legal guardians file application for their children younger than 15 years. If they are capable of signing their names, the children must come to file the application along with the parent. Minors between 15-18 years can file the application only with a consent of a parent/legal guardian.
Additional important information:
- The processing time for a biometric passport is 120 days, but in many cases the passport is ready in two months. (Processing time in the Czech Republic is 30 days.)
- It is possible to apply for a so-called "flash-passport" without biometric features. This type of passport is issued for six months and the application processing time is 60 days. (Processing time in the Czech Republic is 15 days.)
- Application cannot be filed at a honorary consulate.
- Application must be filed by an applicant or by a parent/legal guardian, powers of attorney cannot be accepted.

FNX-40 Handgun Review
What do you think about this video?
Master57Gaming: New to firearms in general, can this be carried roostered and Locked?
drummerchef851: Sweet gun, nice video.
Jason Yerian: Good job on shooting I have shot a glock22 .40 it shots smooth
Jesse Proctor: Well first of all the FNP doesn't have a safety, just a deroosterer.
Col. Richard Hunter: ★★★★★
CRJDEGREE: I'm south-paw, I'm loving it. How is the recoil on this 40 cal?
Keith Basinger: Nice review
90foxfreak: Your camera is gonna have to work on the flinching prob! lol
krazor8: you should do the fnx .45, just got 1, and its a tac driver...
acewings221: I never realized how snappy the .40 S+W was... What load were you using?
hempseedaddict: Tough trigger pull for your off hand
Haus of Guns: Thanks for the tip but I highly doubt it will happen. FNH is very difficult to get guns from and I don't have the extra coin to drop on simply a different caliber of a gun I've already reviewed. That said I shot the FNX-45 Tactical at range day for SHOT Show and was unimpressed. It's accurate yes, but is top heavy making muzzle rise exaggerated and difficult for quick follow up shots. Just my opinion though, glad you like yours.
alex o'neal: Another good "real world' review haus....keep em' comin'...(btw I pulled the trigger on that M&P 9c...great gun...I'll try to get a vid up about it when I get time...)
JEHAB1: just saw you on american guns cool dude
Monderno: The trigger is quite nice indeed, especially after you get it broken in. Walther PPQ is still the striker fired trigger king though. :)
Haus of Guns: I want to say I've seen them in stores at about $599 but they can be found used and floating around for a bit cheaper. The pistol comes in a lockable hard case and 3 14 round magazines.
J Beasley: get a mic
JathTech: I make a replacement safety lever in metal to upgrade from the plastic one. check my website out (link on my videos from my channel)
Haus of Guns: Funny story... I thought I had a deal all set up for a PPQ in .40 S&W and the dude flaked out on me. It would have been a steal if it worked out, but I was pretty pumped about getting my hands on one.
jmsmikey: Great review~ I hope you get the chance to review the FNS
LTDANTN: This is the first video of yours that I have watched. Very good! THANKS!
Nonsenseatbay: What was the bullet weight that was run through the pistol in this demo?
raberry92: Good Video Thanks. Now I have to get one
jjoonie1: Nice appreance in gunsmoke..
makin1905: heeey I saw you on gunsmoke!!! Im literally watching it right now, and I was like holy crap HAUSOFGUNS!!!!
Haus of Guns: Sort of. The recoil on this felt a bit more "top heavy" than I would have anticipated. It's not heavy, but at 24 ounces it's not ridiculously light either. It feels awesome in the hand and the reset on the single action is easy to pick up and get acquainted with. I consider myself to be fairly deft at controlling recoil on handguns, but again I was surprised at how snappy this was. I imagine the 9 would be smooth as molasses.
Haus of Guns: Thanks amigo. Doing my best to get one in hand. I hear from another gun blogging buddy that the trigger is ridiculously awesome. Not quite as grand as Walther PPQ, but outstanding nonetheless.
Haus of Guns: Haha, funny right? There's a full "behind the scenes" type writeup on the main site clearing things up. It's pretty eye opening.
jmsmikey: Ok~ thanks. I just bought a Beretta PX4 Storm full size in .40 two weeks ago~ I was looking for a DA/SA set up & the Beretta fit the bill at the right price. Beretta makes a flush mounted deroosterer only lever to replace the safety/deroosterer meathooks that are on it now. I'm also replacing the sights with Beretta adjustable sights becuase the stock sights shot dramatically low left. I should get it back from the gunsmith today~ they next time ur in Vegas you can do a desert review if you like~
acewings221: Holy crap .40 recoil is bad. Too snappy imo
BALJIT147: I don't see the difference between the fnp and fnx.
steve barney: Cool to see you on AG! Awesome my friend!
cbrian2009: just purchased this gun a week ago paid 629 i grabbed it when i found it because of the gun craze right now i was surprised it was even sitting on the shelf the gun so far shoots amazingly its comfortable and recoil is not as bad as people are saying. FNH has worked out alot of the original kinks they were facing so far at 600+ rounds its a greast weapon A+ rating
Mr223wssm: Now I'm buying one!
Fun & Family Channel: Great Video. it shoots like a 9 with no snapping(push) and hits like a 40
Haus of Guns: It's actually pretty snappy. Definitely more than I would prefer but it's manageable.
RoadHardOffRoad: That's a great gun bro!! About what are they running in price? How many mags does it come with?

Sewing Tutorial | Making a Skirt from a Dress
Since the summer is here, I have been reviewing all of my dresses in my closet to see if I should keep them, revamp them or give them away.
I have a lot of work dresses in my closet that have not seen the light of day in a while, since I no longer work in an office (read: do not need to look presentable) so I was looking at some of these dresses to see what I would refashion it into a skirt.
Here's the one that I found for this project:
I like the color of the dress and it has pockets, so it has good potential to be turned into a skirt. In addition, the dress is loose so there is enough room to slip on as a skirt. The dress originally came with a matching belt, which at some point I lost. That would have been really useful here as that would have served as a waistband.
The easiest way to make a dress into a skirt is to attach it to a wide elastic waistband. Otherwise, it's hard to recreate a structured waist band since you are probably limited in the fabric you can reuse.
Step One – Mark and cut
I measured 2 inches above the waist to make sure I had enough fabric to work with. I just got this great Omnigrid 24 inch ruler so that I can make one solid line across the dress.
I have pinking shears that I use to eliminate unraveling edges. Since my dress also had a zipper in the back, I ripped out the zipper and sewed the seam back up.
At this point, I have something that resembles a skirt without a waist. This is a good time to double check that you will be able to pull the dress on (meaning, that the circumference of the top of the skirt is wide enough to get over your hips). If it does not, you won't be able to use this to make your skirt, unless you put in a zipper.
Mine is good to go!
Step Two – Iron!
Since for my version, I don't want the elastic waistband to show, I wanted to sew the skirt so that the fabric would hide all of the elastic, so I went with a wider fold at the top of the skirt.
I turned the skirt inside out, folded over the fabric and ironed.
Step Three – Make the waistband
I bought a big roll of black elastic from downtown Los Angeles's fabric district for, like, 2 bucks. A steal.
Measure a length of the elastic by wrapping it around your waist and pull slightly for a snug fit. Add about 3/4 inch for the seam allowance.
Sew the right side to the right side and secure each side of the seam down to make it as flush as possible. (Sorry this is hard to describe but see below)
This is what the seam of the waistband looks like and this is also the side that will face your skin. The seam wasn't lying flat, so I added an additional stitch across the middle too.
Step Four – Pin the Skirt to the waistband
Pin the skirt evenly to the waistband to ensure that the gathers will be evenly distributed. I start by pinning two evenly across. And then adding more 2 at a time in the other direction. I stopped when I pinned at 8 locations.
Also, since I want the fabric of the skirt to cover up the elastic waistband, I'm pinning the fabric so that it's at the top of the skirt. If you want to show the waistband, you can pin the fabric lower.
Step 5 – Sew!
If you have never sewed on to elastic before, this will be different to you but also surprisingly easy. As you sew each section, pull the fabric and elastic until they are flush and sew a pinned section at a time. It will help to use your other hand to pull the fabric through on the other side of the needle.
I stitched 2 rows to secure the skirt to the waistband and placed the stitches towards the center to give it more of a paper-bag skirt look. You can place your stitches anywhere on the waistband depending on the look that you want.
I also ended up removing the hem on the skirt since it was too long.
And ta-da!
I can see myself wearing this skirt with a thin belt or just like this. The grey color is pretty versatile.
And everything is made better with pockets :)

What Is So Fascinating About the Predator?
This is a question that has intrigued me for the longest time. What is it about the Predator that draws you in? What causes one to sculpt, mold, paint, draw and spend our hard earned money on 1:1 props, model kits, video games and the of course the movies? What brings you to the Hunters Lair?
Here's how it started for me:
I started off drawing Predators. I progressed to model kits, moved on to 1:1 scale props and eventually I made my way here where I met a bunch of cool people who helped me put together a full size Predator suit...latex head, body, hands, feet, armor etc.
Why do I collect these things? I am fascinated by the Predator...in fact everything about the Predator:
The Hunter Mentality - hunt down the prey and kill it. If you are armed and you get in its way - you are now considered collateral and expendable... Once the hunt is killed, the head is removed along with the flesh and then the skull is polished. The skull is placed with pride where all can see and know who defeated it.
Stealth - while cloaked the Predator can sneak up on its enemy. Not only that, but seeing the eyes in the Bio flash is totally cool!
Lean Mean Fighting Machine - the slim and fit body covered by a few pieces of armor boasts of courage and arrogance. He can swing from treetops and be pushed beyond the physical thresholds that would exhaust an athletic human. They are taught to ignore pain in the most extreme situations. Lose a limb? Cauterize the wound and keep fighting.
Armor - The minimal armor means that the Predator is confident in its abilities and that it doesn't fear being wounded in battle. The Bio helmet has many roles: vision modes, supplies air and protects the face from damage. It also prevents its enemies from being scared to death by its fearsome face! The various Bio helmets allow for individuality and customization.
Weapons - Lets face it - the Predator doesn't NEED them, but it sure helps when he has a small army of green berets and xenomorphs after him!
The Dreads - They swing gracefully when just hanging there and then whip around from side to side when the Predator quickly moves his head. They are adorned by the rings/beads that are made of bone, metal, leather, etc. If you cut them off, do they grow back like a lizards tail? I dunno, but I wouldn't want to be the one to find out.
The Face: The mandibles always reminded me of the legs of a spider. The P2 head reminds me of the abdomen of a spider. I HATE spiders, which makes it even more confusing that I admire this creature so much! The mouth in particular is an amazing design. When Stan Winston came up with the idea for mandibles, he really hit the nail on the head. The mandibles move independently and look bloody cool when they are open. When I first saw the Predator remove his Bio helmet I was sitting on the edge of my seat...nothing like that had ever been seen before. THEN when it opened its mandibles and roared I thought, "why is Arnie not running in the other direction?!?!"
Samurai Characteristics - Predators have honor. They do not kill humans unless they are armed...there is no sport in killing an unarmed opponent. They are a clan of brothers that fight together. They cover each others back in battle and are there for support when one goes down. Predators do not leave their wounded to rot on the blood soaked battlefield. As I write this, I can't help but think of Casey and how we have all come together to support and pray for him...
Those cool clicking sounds he makes are so freaking cool!
I think the Predator moves perfectly...there is no hesitation, fumbling, or awkwardness. They are silent when needed and can be swift and relentless in the blink of an eye. The mannerisms and movements of the Predator are beautiful to watch: crouching to avoid detection; exaggerated hand movements when removing the Bio helmet; cocking the head to see where an attack is coming from; etc When I saw Kevin Peter Hall in the very first movie I was so impressed by the way he portrayed the Predator that I didn't for one second think there was a guy in that suit...I thought I was looking at a real live alien being who was hunting men. THATS how convincing KPH was to me. Recently in Aliens Vs Predator - AVP2, Ian Whyte did a good job portraying the Wolf Predator, but I know that KPH is still the one who started it all...
But...I refuse to acknowledge Alien Vs Predator. I HATE Alien Vs Predator. It messed with the whole Predator lore that we had all come to love. Alien Vs Predator however regained a bit of composure by bring us Wolf. Ian Whyte did an absolutely incredible job moving just like the first and second Predators - played by Kevin Peter Hall. Sure, the movie's story and human characters sucked...and they gave away the ending when they showed Chet and Wolfie in a death lock before the movie was even out - BUT we have Wolf who really does kick ass. Wolf could easily go toe to toe with any formidable foe, and even another Predator.
That pretty much sums it all up...I love absolutely everything about the Predator and thats why I spend so much freaking time on this message board! Well, that and the fact that I've made some really cool friends here. People I would call my 'second family'...

DD had her first time in a jumper at daycare yesterday & loved it. They have a FP rainforest jumper. We have a bright starts exersaucer that we got at a shower. I'm wondering if she'll like the jumper better? We put the exersaucer together last night & put her in it & she was not happy (but she was tired so that could be it.)
Do your LO's like the jumper, which seems more movable, or the exersaucer, that might be harder to move in?
After looking a lot because we don't have room for more than one, I went with a jumperoo. It seems to have the rotating seat and toys like an exersaucer combined with the ability to jump. Even at just over 3 month (supported extra with a towel) by daughter loves it and I can see it growing with her for a lot longer than the exersaucer. We have the Baby Einstein one, and can change out a lot of the toys that hang around it to whatever best fits her at the time.
ToBeMrsC6907:We went with an exersaucer, because we have a doorway jumper. DS loved both and the doorway jumper is super easy and portable, not to mention relatively inexpensive. Daycare has a jumperoo but we'll keep our same setup at home- this way DD has the best of both worlds.
I was going to get a doorway jumper so I'm glad you posted this. Makes sense because then we'd have both. I guess I just assumed the exersaucer allowed them to jump, but guess thats not quite right.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) -- Public health groups say Kansas is among the states spending less than recommended on programs to stop people from smoking.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports (http://bit.ly/1e1sumG ) the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends states spend $32.1 million a year on tobacco prevention. A report released Monday by several anti-tobacco groups, including the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids, says Kansas spends about $947,000 a year on such programs, ranking Kansas 41st in the nation in per-capita spending.
The Kansas Department of Health and Education says outcomes are more important than spending. The KDHE points out that the high-school smoking rate in Kansas is 14 percent, which is below the national average of 18 percent and lower than that of neighboring states, including some that spend more per capita on tobacco prevention.

The reason this works is that excess
refined carbs cause high
, which in turn causes high insulin, which stimulates the ovaries to make androgens (male hormones). You can also try some of these ideas as well: 1. Take nutritional supplements to lower your testosterone. Diindolylmethane, or DIM, is a natural supplement made from cauliflower and broccoli, and is known to reduce androgens, or male sex hormones (among which is testosterone).

Caffeine is bad as it leads to over stimulation of the adrenal glands and then adrenal exhaustion, stopping
production. Fried
fatty foods
have the same effect. Adrenal exhaustion can also occur as the result of not enough sleep and too much stress In general it can be seen that the foods that are recommended to increase the testosterone levels in the body are the same ones that are recommended in a healthy diet for every-one, particularly for a healthy heart.

The Symogi effect is the tendency of the blood sugar to rise as a result of low

But insulin inhibits glycogenolysis, and as you may have observed, low blood sugar occurs most often near an insulin peak.

These include diabetes, high blood pressure, heart or thyroid conditions, poor circulation, low testosterone, depression, spinal
neurologic causes. Investigations like
levels, thyroid test,
levels and blood pressure levels are needed to confirm the diagnosis. So my sincere advice is to get the diagnosis confirmed from a urologist. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

I don't think sex of any sort increases blood "volume." It may redirect blood flow and even raise blood pressure momentarily but volume is something else. And I would never recommend "cutting" to reduce blood volume. Some people with high iron levels have to donate blood occasionally but that's something different.

You can make your own marinara sauce using San Marsano plum tomatoes with no added
, onions, garlic
Italian herbs. Limit your wine,
dry reds have lower sugars, use olive oil, and of course exercise, which you do. Coconut products are considered a very high source of fat and cholesterol. I'd simply carry on and not worry about your diet, just monitor it. Again, I'm not a health professional.

More slides from the summer/fall of 1984. That's where I am in my scanning of my slides, and thought I'd show a few more of them to y'all.
The photos with the Hobie catamarans in them were from when Fort Walton Beach hosted a world championship for the 14 and 16 foot Hobies.

Need a Flashlight?
Shine through the dark with Flashlights.
Flashlights have been used by law enforcement agencies and generally in emergency response services for many years! The reason for this is twofold: a flashlight will not only shine a light through the dark, it can also be used as a melee weapon, in other words, if you are working for a security company or something similar, you need to buy a flashlight!
Flashlights however are not just for people working in security, they're also essential for "civilians" as well! The new LED flashlights are essential for anyone living in an area with frequent power outages!
Having a LED flashlight in the trunk of your car, could also prove invaluable if your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere and it's too dark to see anything!
Bottom line is, EVERYONE needs a good flashlight! But which are the best flashlights? Well, that depends on what you intent to use your flashlight for and how frequently!
The brightest flashlight models are usually great for security officers but they can be a bit too bright for civilians, while rechargeable flashlights are great for civilians who only have a flashlight around for emergency use but they're not that great for security officers who use their flashlights daily…
The Best Flashlight Reviews!
In our site, you will find reviews for the best flashlights on the market, which will help you pick the right one for your own needs! Specifically, you will find flashlight reviews for the following top models: the Streamlight TLR-1, the Streamlight Stinger DS LED, the Fenix TK40, the Streamlight Ultrastinger and the Pelican 7060! At the end of each review, we'll also tell you where to get each flashlight for the best price on the market. Making sure that you get the best model for you, with the best deal out there!
Which is the best flashlight for you?

The correct searching is a bit difficult when you luck certain information concerning all types existing . Here are some suggestions on how you should decide to buy a flashlight fitting your needs !
Personal flashlight or Tactical flashlight ?
Basically you have to choose between two kinds , Personal or Tactical flashlights . Your environment and living conditions will mostly dictate this decision . In general , a tactical flashlight , is more durable in hard conditions like water for instance and can also be used as a weapon in a difficult situation .. A tactical one , requires to have three characteristics . Easy use , mission features and reliability . So , the thing is , do you need an extremely high-powered flashlight or a simpler and cheaper one ?
Which size ?
The flashlight's size is a factor you should consider . For people who are always busy or have limited space , a smaller size is more appropriate . Naturally , they are easier to be carried and they can be quickly removed from a bag or pocket . Of course , the size should not affect the quality .
Which type or light ?
What technology do you prefer ? There are two basic kinds of flashlights . LED flashlights or Incandescent flashlights . The second type , are gas filled lamps used for high performance . LED stands for the light emitting diodes . Led bulbs are more durable and long-lasting . If you need a very strong light , you should choose a bright LED flashlight . Besides being strong and durable , requires also less maintenance . So, with less cost , more reliability .
Which type of power supply ?
What type of power supply is more convenient is for you to decide . Many flashlights that use standard batteries such AA , AAA , D and C can be rather expensive and often frustrating , in case you run out of new ones . However , it is more convenient to purchase a flashlight with rechargeable batteries . In a few words , rechargeable flashlights will save you money over time . Lastly , there are also solar powered flashlights , ideal for those who do not have access to a charger.
Which type of flashlights is better, LED or Traditional ?
It is proven that flashlights, can become really handy in various emergency inside or outside situations ! It may be needed if the electricity supply is shut down , in outside activities , in the car etc. Flashlights can even become a life savor in extreme cases. So , they are a source of light , ready to be used any time ,any place ! Traditional ones , are composed by a light bulb , flashlight case and batteries . They can be assembled easily as well as they are to be used .
However , this kind of flashlight is not always dependable . The light bulb always generates high light and has a limited life span . It can be broken due to high heat or gives fade light with no warning . But the more important , is that the traditional flashlight makes batteries to run easily out . That means you need to have always stock of batteries . LED flashlights are a new technology that is to provide a source of light to the world !
These flashlights can last much longer with the same amount of batteries and offer stronger light . Also , the less battery you use , the more eco-friendly you are .. LED ones are considered as a long-lasting tool which is to work non-stop for more than 100 hours ! So , less amount of batteries used produce more light supply . LED flashlights can be useful in various ways . Most times , they are found in households in an emergency case or a disaster kit .
Some people like policemen , firemen etc have them for their work benefit . Others want to carry a LED one , for their personal adventures or hobbies ! Either way , LED flashlights are becoming rather popular . Very good brands of such lights are Mag-Lite , Inova , Pelican , Petzl , Streamlight . Since , there are different kinds of them , one should know which is the best LED flashlight for individual needs . Thus , before buying it , ask some info about it !
To conclude , a number of vital LED features like much effectiveness , efficiency , durability and reliability makes them , more trustworthy than traditional ones . The first are thought to be a strong tool for personal or working requirements , thus they may be more expensive than the seconds .

The revolution Paul Pressler and Paige Patterson wrought reached its culmination last week, in the (ever-so-quiet) changing of Baptists' name. We are "Great Commission Baptists" now.
If you didn't get the memo, don't be surprised. A name-change was not popular with many Baptists, holding tightly to tradition as people are prone to do, and to sell it, Baptist leaders called it "a descriptor", something individuals and churches may voluntarily use like a D/B/A. The legal name "Southern Baptist Convention" remains, and indeed, not one speaker deviated from traditional terminology even after the historic vote, all the way to the closing of the annual meeting.
But it is what it is. The camel's nose is under the tent, the future is here. And it's a bright one.
Unlike "Southern", "Great Commission" Baptist is a globally inclusive mission statement, not a regionally closed and divisive delimiter. This is of immediate assistance to missionaries and church planters (not to mention existing churches, state conventions, colleges and seminaries) from Los Angeles to Lansing, New York to Nevada, Boston to Barrow. If this bit of new ink opens the ears and heart of even one lost soul, it's worth all the new stationary Nashville can buy.
The new term finally abandons the tinged racial overtones of a denomination founded on adherence to slavery and in too many cases at the forefront of segregation. At the same time, it announces who we are and what we're about better than any elevator pitch. Are we in Brooklyn to love the lost? Yes, all of them, without exception. And once you're with us, you know exactly what your marching orders are as a new believer.
It is the perfect exclamation point for our "Great Commission Resurgence" of late. In the past three years, Baptists have wholeheartedly shredded their traditional bureaucracies and budgets, pouring countless new dollars into global missions and North American church planting even when that meant selling off state headquarters buildings, restructuring and sometimes firing staff, and asking – in a recession – local churches to dig deeper, just to stay even at home. Southern state conventions slashed their percentage of the Cooperative Program "take" from as much as 70% down to 50%, so that 50% could go further up the chain: the International Missions Board, the North American Mission Board, the seminaries and so forth. Mission-field states responded in-kind: frontier Nevada even voted to go from a 78-22 split to 50-50 in one great bound.
Their sacrifice has not been in vain. Already, just this year, there has been a 27% upsurge in North American church planting, and NAMB has announced concrete plans to plant 13,500 new churches between today and 2022 (the Convention currently has 45,000 local congregations). 51% of all Cooperative Program funds at the national level now go to international missions, and 51% of all NAMB funds now go to church planting.
This was always the ultimate goal of the Conservative Resurgence. The lost cannot be saved by dead neo-orthodoxy, but only by the regenerative grace of the risen Christ. Spending thirty years first winning and then consolidating that revolution was time well spent: Baptists today are stewards of six Bible-believing seminaries turning out men well trained in actual, practical evangelism and personal discipleship. The controversies of another era are buried for Baptists, even while they continue to smother most of America's historic denominations.
But that Resurgence was always foundational, or more precisely, was always about restoring the foundations. And no one was cheering the new developments more than Pressler and Patterson, honored by their former foot soldiers at this New Orleans convention at historic Café Du Monde, birthplace of the Conservative Resurgence, with a crowd-amazing chorus of "Victory in Jesus!" filling Jackson Square. This is what they were working for all along.
There's no time to waste. A cursory glance at American culture demonstrates that – from Hollywood to the abortion holocaust to Barack Obama's war on the First Amendment – as does declining membership in nearly every denomination. America produces the most money for missions and the most men called to ministry and the mission field: that alone would make its survival as an even somewhat Christian nation vital. And the number of churches in America has dropped from 17 for every 10,000 people in 1950 to just 11 today.
Or to put that another way, if Baptists believe they have anything at all special to say about the Gospel to the world, they must confront this: there are 16 million Baptists, but over 312 million Americans. And while our denomination remains largely rural, 80% of Americans live in cities, 75% of which are unevangelized. In Miami, Florida 98% are categorized "unchurched".
Do we care about them or don't we? And would their knowing Christ make a difference or wouldn't it?
Last week, Southern, er, Great Commission Baptists once again said yes. The name change may seem cosmetic to some, optional to others. But it is the valedictory of thirty-three years of work, sweat and tears; and with God's blessing, it may well represent the turning point, the beginning of an American transformation surpassing the Great Awakenings of old.

Barbara Cooney was born in Room 1127 of the Hotel Bossert in Brooklyn, New York. Since then, she has illustrated over one hundred books for children, winning two Caldecott Medals alon the way. Her first Caldecott was for the Chanticleer and the Fox (T. Y. Crowell, 1959), her second for Ox-cart Man, by Donald Hall (Viking, 1979).
After growing up on Long Island and spending cherished childhood summers with her family in Maine, she took every course offered in studio art and art history at Smith College. Ms. Cooney's mother, herself an artist, took her daughter's painting seriously, giving her the encouragement she needed to make art a life-long passion. After Barbara Cooney graduated from college she knew she wanted to be an artist and that she wanted to illustrate children's books. She studied briefly at the Art Student League in New York City and showed her portfolio to publishers.
A year after graduation, her first book, Ake and His World (Farrar and Rinehart, 1940)by the Swedish poet Bertil Malmberg was published. A year later, Farrar and Finehart published King of Wreck Island, the fisrt book Ms. Cooney both wrote and illustrated. She continues to illustrate books written by other people as well as illustrating her own texts and has worked closely with the animators of The Story of Holly and Ivy (Viking, 1985), which was recently broadcast on network television.
"Of all the books I have done", she says "Miss Rumphius (Viking, 1982), Island Boy (Viking, 1988), and Hattie and the Wild Waves (Viking, 1990), are the closest to my heart. These three are as near as I ever will come to an autobiography". Like Miss Rumphius, Barbara Cooney has travelled the world, settled down by the sea, and tries to make the world more beautiful. Also like Miss Rumphius, she loves the lupines that bloom in early summer in her favorite place on earth - Maine.
Maine obviously loves Barbara Cooney, too. In 1989, the Maine Library Association created the Lupine Award to recognize outstanding children's books by state residents. Their opening ceremony honored Miss Rumphius and its creator. A bit farther south, Island Boy was made a Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor Book in the same year.
Ms. Cooney lives in Maine and is married to "an old-fashioned country doctor", who is now retired. Her four children, all grown, have inherited their mother's independent spirit. One daughter was a rigger in an Indiana coke plant, and a younger son, having circumnavigated Cape Horn in a kayak, is now a glacial geologist in Patagonia.
In 1979, Ms. Cooney was given the Smith College Medal. At about the same time, she and one of her sons designed and built her studio/home on the Damariscotta River in Maine. There, sitting at her immense drawing board, just feet away from the sea, Ms. Cooney continues to work away. "I plan," she says, "to live to be one hundred years old".

columbus, OH, United States | Member Since 2006
"A good book 2"
i was find with book 2 except they used another narrator, which makes it harder especially if you go right from book 1 to book 2. Otherwise I like it. Even though it was easy to see guess who the bad guy was early on in the book
"A really nice find"
A friend who read this recommended it, said its a good read and a fun story. It is a good listen to as well. I enjoyed this book. My first experience of this author. I will be listening to the next book. I recommend it, its light, fun, little crazy too
"A challenging listen"
I have enjoyed the entire Private series, however I have come to realize trying to listen to this book is very challanging. The Ausie Tongue sounds so sexy at first - but for me trying to listen to this book is very hard. This is the first book I would recommend that someone not listen to - because of the thick Ausie accent and I think you may want to read the book instead.
"Every young high school and college person needs"
Every young person, high school / college along with us all need to be to know when it comes to social media. best example is someone who got fired for posting something on facebook. it happens. I wish i had read this book a year ago.
"Thor wasted pages and pages"
The overall story is a good one, real good. But Thor spent too much time confusing me in the begining of the book bouncing around. It made it very hard to get into. Once the book gets rolling - its a great story. Thor wasted pages and pages on the group that went into North Korea - he never tied them into the ending of the book. He needed to spend much more time developing the last portion of the book.
"Interesing - makes ya think"
This is not Berry's best work. But he does a nice job explaining the Mormon's and how messy their relationship has been with the United States over the years. Something that is good to know. Secondly, how fragile the relationship between states and the Fed is, is very interesting. The overall story was ok. I think I learned more in this book than enjoyed listening to a book.
"Im a sucker for Cussler"
I love the way cussler writes and have for years, is this one of his best books, no, but its a good book. much better book than a lot of other books out there. A cussler book is like coming home to friends.
"Welcome back Pocket"
First agree with me that Dan Brown will never write another book as good as Da Vinci Code, Therefore Moore will never write anything as odd as The Gospil according to Biff. Doesnt mean that we should not listen to the new books they write. It was a welcome break to listen to Pocket and all of his mayhem. So much fun to listen to. I found myself laughing out loud in my car as I would listen to his silly nonsense. Enjoy it - I have a feeling Pocket will return in another adventure. I hope he does. Right ! Cheers !
"A really good read - Just what I was looking for"
I hate the down time between my favorite author's books coming out. So the search for someone new to listen too. Will I like them or not. I have found quite a few not's. But in this case I was really happy to find Peterson. Its a good book and just what I was looking . btw my authors of choice are Cussler, Berry, Thor, Silva, Patterson (private)
"Too difficult to get into"
This book was very hard to get into. It did not grab me or keep my attention. Not for me.
"Im sure this is a wonderful book - but not for me"
Im sure this is a wonderful book, but its just not for me . and long very long

You can filter by things like brands, celebrity, media, politics and sport .
It seems reasonably accurate and has come in very handy for me.
A bit depressing that the X Factor score a 10 / 10 for the brand most likely to be recommended.
In the words of Einstein: "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction." Thoughts on simple things that work well for social media and digital PR. Plus, some other things that make life fun, like Mountain Biking and technology.
