Battle of the Mag Feds! T9 vs T9.1 vs T4 vs RAP4 T68 Gen6
Posted 01 July 2010 - 11:21 PM
Like most folks here, I've a big interest in magfed markers.I currently own FS capable Tac8 and Tac9 and found them to be adequate for as sidearms and long range sniping with the FS rounds. For close quarters, unless the hoppers on the T9, the 8 round magazines limits play quite extensively, never mind the 12g cartridges. So I'm kinda looking at getting another mag fed...
We've just had available locally the T9.1 and the RAP4 T68s. The 9.1s great because of the gas thru tank and of course FS capable, but again, for pure mag fed games, the 8 round mags a paint. The T68 Gen 6 looks bad ass, has 18 round mags and not only that, retails way much cheaper than the T9.1. The mags too are much cheaper.
The T4 I put into the mix just to see whether its worth the huge price tag.
So... should I upgrade my T9? Is the upgrade to a T9.1 worthed it? Or would the T68 be a better choice? I love to snipe with the FS., but I also would like something that can enable me to last enggagements at closer range and with adequate air supply.b

Mags can be bought used much cheaper too.

Personally, I want a T9.1 because of that air in stock and it can be fs ready out of the box.
The t4. IMO, I think it's dumb. Why not just get a t9.1 for so much cheaper. And that big mag on the t4. What were they thinking!!! How are you supposed to shoot while in prone with that thing!?!
Posted 04 July 2010 - 01:19 PM
Doesn't anyone know that you can buy 10rd mags for the T4 for a while now.... Its also quite easy to cut them down from what I've heard. The T4 is arguably the best milsim gun out there and easy to customize with real steel parts + accessories. First Strike ready out of the box. The only problem with the T4s is that they are apparently horrible with regular paint so stick with First Strike. Goes from magfed to hopperfed with the pull of the charging handle. 12 gram or remote line.
Milsig K-Series + M-Series:
For regular paint your best bet is a Milsig. Only regular paint. 18 round magazines. Very customizable. A5/X7 threaded. Can accept quite a few A5/X7 accesories with little to no modding. A5 internals. Reliable (as long as the magwell is set up correctly). Can be hopperfed (but not easily changed between hopperfeed and magfeed IE You cannot do it on the field). On-gun air or remote line.
Tiberius Arms T9/T9.1*:
For First Strike just go with the T9.1 (or a T9 with a conversion kit). A regular T9 can only shoot regular paint without a conversion kit but the new T9.1 is First Strike ready out of the box (and can also shoot regular paint). There are slight differances between the T9 and the T9.1 such as they use different barrel threads. Hopperfed or magfed with the twist of the barrel. 12 gram, remote line, OR 13ci tank in the stock.
For magfed pistols the T8/T8.1* definitely take the cake in my books but there is also the TPX.
Ive heard too many horror stories to count...But I guess if you find one for cheap, A marker is a marker....
*Note: The Tiberius Arms markers are very consistent once the regulator is broken in BUT rapid firing will cause inconsistency. As general rule, for the best consistency take 3 seconds between shots. 2 quick shots usually doesn't affect it that much either.

Thanks for the replies!! Keep em coming, your comments have been very informative!
Stuffy, don't think I can get an ATS here in Malaysia. Mag fed markers were next to impossible at one point, even now, theres limited numbers of Tiberius and RAP4s for sale and MIilsig kinda went out the window.
My T9 is already FS converted, been pinging FS rounds for the past 3 months, and those things are insane! I've been thinking of upgrading to a T9.1 because of the air in stock, I like the fact that I won't be restricted by the limited shots of the 12 grams, and those things are like USD2.0 here a pop, not to mention you lose CO2 whenever you pop a magazine out. Having said that, the cost of the T9.1 can buy loads of them 12g CO2 carts! So its just really a matter of whether the air in stock convenience is worth the price. Coveringfire, won't go q-loader setup, but definitely will look at the longbow! Thanks!
The RAP4 Gen 6s are only recently available. Compared to the Tiberius, the RAP4s are really cheap, both the markers and the mags are way cheaper than the Tiberius! And they seemed to shoot really well now that they're Gen6. No FS though.
The T4s, still can't figure out whether they're worthed the extra cash on top of the T9.1.
Anyway, this whole thing started because theres gonna be a local league for limtied ammo, mag fed play.
Slingshotted, the BT SA17s not really mag fed, instead the rounds are stored onto a tube on the top of the marker, very similar to how a longbow mag is setup on a regular marker, except its much shorter.

It isn't THAT much different but what I mean was that some people like the more realistic feel, mostly metal construction and being able to deck it out with real steel parts/accessories.
With a short mag (the 10rd or shorter custom ones) it is undoubtably the best looking milsim gun out there with the ability to use FS out of the box.
That being said, it is alot more expensive, doesn't have the ability for air in-stock, and trying to magfeed regular balls is supposed to work pretty badly.
Like everything in paintball, it just comes down to personal preferance and your budget.
I should of read the first post, I completely missed that he already has a FS capable T9 and I posted stuff he probably already knows xD

And the thing that gets me in the t9.1 is the air in stock. So awesome

Submit your question below about any cosmetic procedure to be considered for posting with an answer from one of our board-certified plastic surgeons.
If your question is about the cost of a procedure, click here. For referral to a qualified surgeon in your area, see find a surgeon.
Note: ASAPS cannot give advice about specific medical problems nor should answers provided by responding surgeons be substituted for a complete medical history, work-up and an in-personal medical/surgical consultation. Sorry we can't answer all questions. We try to select questions that have the widest general interest.
Can I have a tummy tuck, breast lift and fat transfer all in one day?
Yes it is entirely reasonable to have a tummy tuck, breast lift and fat transfer at the same time. An abdominoplasty frequently requires liposuction. This is a good way to harvest the fat you need. Injecting it is then not a major problem at the end of the procedure. Breast and abdominal procedures are frequently done together.
Dr. Buchanan is absolutely correct. In the modern era of plastic surgery, it is very common to have such combined procedures. Please make sure your surgeon has hospital privileges to perform these procedures, is working in an accredited surgical facility or hospital, has an action plan or critical pathway to prevent adverse events or unfavorable outcomes during combined procedures, and is board certified by the American Board of Medical Specialists (ABMS). All ASAPS members meet these rigorous, expensive and strict requirements.
Gary R. Culbertson, MD, FACS
A tummy tuck, breast lift along with liposuction of the hips and abdomen is a very common combination of procedures that I do on a regular basis. The Plastic Surgery Journal recently in September published a paper that I wrote which included 113 of these same procedures that were preformed with few complications. On occasion I have added fat grafting to the face or other areas with these procedures. If you are at a good weight, and it seems that you are, and you are in good health, I think you should do well with this combination of surgical procedures. Be sure and consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has experience with these surgical procedures.
Depending on the expertise and the time required to perform these operative procedures, it is not uncommon to do a breast augmentation/breast lift and tummy tuck all in one operative procedure unless there are mitigating circumstances such as medical problems. If there are any questions, one can divide the procedures and do them at different stages. It depends on the amount of work that needs to be done and the expertise of the plastic surgeon. I do these procedures under general and keep the patient overnight in our facility with 24-hour nursing care.
Yes, it is possible to have a combination of body contouring and breast enhancement procedures provided that you are in good health and the total time under anesthesia is safe. The combination is frequently called a "mommy makeover," and is becoming increasingly popular.
Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and breast lift +/- implants is what is often called the "mommy makeover" and is commonly done. The fat transfer could be done depending on location and amount. Please keep in mind that the facility where the procedures are done should be accredited, and make sure that you have appropriate arrangements for postoperative care.

Hi Julie, I did buy a can of Campbells "Bean with Bacon" soup yesterday.
$1.79 for a 11.5 oz can. yikes! That's pretty steep to me but I bought one

I used to love that with a can of milk added, not water.

XOXO CAS(E) this Sketch!
Happy Monday, everyone! I hope y'all had a great weekend.
My card share today is for another challenge blog – I am trying to do better about participating in these things, they are so much fun! This one is called CAS(E) this Sketch! and it's for clean and simple style sketches. I was thrilled to find it, because I like a less fussy style of card, myself.
Here is the sketch we were given:
Now, remember that I said I was participating in the ongoing Use Your Stamps challenge to use (or lose) every stamp I own? I thought I'd have fun with it for this card, so I literally closed my eyes and reached into a bin of clear stamps that I have yet to organize, committing myself to using whatever my hand grabbed first! And it was this awesome Hero Arts set, Typewriter Notes. This card came together easily after that! However, when I put this set on my spreadsheet, I entered it as a 'maybe' because I know that somewhere in my stash I have another typewriter themed set, and I don't need two of them. Once I use the other one, I'll make a decision about which one to keep. Maybe I'll take a vote
The typewriter and the message are heat embossed, and I thought that little clip (retired SU!, I think) was a cute office-supply like tie in. It reminds me of my all-time favorite office supply, binder clips (they can do anything! I once fixed a broken drawstring in a pair of pajama pants using a binder clip. True story!) The black and white patterned graph-type paper was random from my scraps bin.

Happy Birthday
Hello friends! Today's card share is another one from the series I am working on using the Authentique Strong collection 6×6 paper pad. These papers are more in the masculine range so I challenged myself to make a feminine card with them.
I think I succeeded, although it certainly isn't a "girly" card by any stretch.
This card uses my favorite Happy Birthday sentiment – the one included in the Hero Arts OWH Year Round Sentiments set. I just love the size of it and especially the font. Also please note, my button is not naked!
And as you can see below, I am trying something new, linking my products with Inlinkz Project Manager. Most of these links are Amazon Affiliate links which would net me a small commission should you decide to follow the link and purchase the product. SU! products are linked to the SU! store which I am not affiliated with. I'm hoping this will be an easier way for me to keep track of what is what and for you to find something if you happen to fall in love with it.

Operation Write Home Memorial Weekend Bloghop!
Yay, it's finally here! The big blowout OWH bloghop that I've been looking forward to! We have over 140 blogs this year (wow!) and tons and tons of cute inspiration – and all for a great cause, handmade cards for our deployed troops to use to keep in touch with home. If you didn't arrive here from OWH, please go to the main bloghop page to visit the other bloggers!
Our task for this bloghop was to use an OWH sketch to create a thank you card. OWH sketches have a special place in my heart since I created many of them and hosted the sketch challenge for two years! I love seeing my older sketches get some love in a bloghop like this! Some time ago one of our awesome OWHers, Kathryn, created a PDF document checklist for folks to use to keep up with which sketches they had tried. Using that, I decided for this bloghop to use the oldest sketch I had never used before, and that turned out to be #21:
I don't know what took me so long, this is a great sketch! (And no, not one I created, lol!) So enough yakking, here's the card I came up with:
I recently got this beautiful peacock feather stamp (Stampendous!) and I have been itching to ink it up. I used Distress Ink markers (Broken China, Wild Honey, Shabby Shutters, Vintage Photo) to ink it up, then misted water on it and on my watercolor paper before stamping – gives this great watercolor effect. I heat embossed the sentiment from Technique Tuesday with Ranger gold detail embossing powder to give a little sparkle. Here's a closer view:
I kept the rest of the card fairly clean and simple, with some patterned paper (mystery source, it was a gift from a friend) and cardstock (Stampin' Up! Taken with Teal and Crumb Cake). The stamped panel is on dimensional adhesives and I used a corner rounder on four of the patterned paper corners.
I hope you enjoyed this stop on the hop and all the other stops too! Thank you for supporting Operation Write Home!

Season's Greetings
Today's card share is another duo from my Stampin' Up! holiday card class. These are really cute little 4 x 4 cards that would be great as cards or attached to a gift, I think.
About these cards: All supplies here from Stampin' Up! The card base is Crumb Cake, the light cardstock is Very Vanilla, the dark is Early Espresso. The ornament stamp is from Ornament Keepsakes and is stamped in Raspberry Ripple and Marina Mist and die cut on the Big Shot with the coordinating Framelits die. The glitter paper is called Champagne but it's more bronze-y looking to me and it is so so pretty in person. Not sure what set the sentiment is from, and the designer paper is SU! but I don't know what series (maybe Donna will comment and fill in the blanks for us!)

O Come Let Us Adore Him
Happy Tuesday, all! I have two more cards to show you from the SU! card class I attended over the weekend. Again these are variations on the same kit.
I love this one because it is clean and simple and it's on kraft cardstock! The one on the right is the first one I did, where the stamping is directly on the card base. That makes me nervous so on my next one I stamped on a second piece of kraft instead. On the first one the red strip is adhered to the inside of the card, on the second it's adhered to the card front.
Closer view of both cards:
About these cards: All supplies are from Stampin' Up! The kraft cardstock is Crumb Cake and the red is Real Red. I punched the bottom of both cards with the scallop border punch. The sentiment and image are from the Come to Bethlehem stamp set and are stamped in Early Espresso and Real Red. A little adhesive rhinestone finishes the card.

You're In My Thoughts…
Today's card is a result of a little creativity shared between friends. A few weeks ago my friend D'Arcy emailed me a link and picture of this card set on the blog of Shelli Gardner, CEO of Stampin' Up!
D'Arcy thought it would make a great card for Operation Write Home – and she was right! It's perfect for my upcoming OWH Cardmaking party, and it's a great way to use some cute patterned papers that were donated.
I tweaked it a little bit, adding a button and a rounded corner, and I did the sentiment in a darker ink, but I love the result…
Thank you, D'Arcy, for the idea!
About this card: The button is made using the Sizzix Sweet Buttons embosslit and a scrap of patterned paper. I then coated the button in Crystal Effects clear laquer to give it shine, and threaded it with a scrap of embroidery thread. The ribbon and patterned paper are both from my scraps bin. The sentiment from Stampin' Up! Word Play is stamped in SU! Chocolate Chip ink on SU! Crumb Cake cardstock. I used a corner rounder from Marvy/Uchida on both the Crumb Cake layer and the white card base in the upper right corner.

Pinspiring Monday!
Hello friends! I have a new card to share with you today, inspired by a photograph I found on my Pinspiring! board on Pinterest.
I had a hard time deciding which photo to use this time, because there are so many good ones now. I ended up going back to the beginning of the board and using one that has been there awhile, this adorably designed bedroom. Following the links back, I found that this is the bedroom of a lucky girl named Isabella, from her mom's blog The Boo and the Boy.
I just love the old window turned into art, and of course the multicolored pennant banner. I also like the mix of patterns found all over the room, and the amount of white keeps them from being overwhelming.
In my card, I used six panels of blue patterned paper to mimic the window, and ribbons for the pennants. This is a great way to use up those odd patterned ribbons that find their way into my stash. The floral stamping on the sentiment panel was another way to mix in more pattern.
(Click on pictures to enlarge.)
About this card: The ribbons for the pennants were all random bits from my stash and are threaded onto hemp twine. The sentiment is from Hero Arts Year Round Sentiments and is stamped in Versafine Onyx Black. The flowers and butterfly are from Bo Bunny Sophie clear stamps. The flowers were stamped by coloring the stamp with various Distress Ink markers, the butterfly stamped in Versafine and colored with markers then cut out and adhered to the panel with a glue dot. I used Viva Pearl Pen in Pearl to embellish the centers of the flowers. The mat for that panel is Stampin' Up! Old Olive. The blue pattern paper is from the SU! Spice Cake designer series, and is adhered to the SU! Crumb Cake mat with dimensional adhesives. That entire panel is adhered to the cardbase with more dimensionals.

Pinspiring Monday!
Happy Monday, all! I have a new card to share with you today, inspired by a photograph that was pinned to my Pinterest: Pinspiring! board.
I'm afraid I don't have a good credit for the photo, it appears to be from a stock photography website. It was labeled "India." As usual, I was drawn to bold colors and a graphic pattern!
I decided to do a single layer card, which you know is unusual for me! I heat embossed my stamping with white detail embossing powder, colored with colored pencils, and then stamped a second time with just Versamark, slightly off set from the white, to leave a drop-shadow effect. I really like the results, what do you think?
(Click pictures to enlarge.)
About this card: The sentiment is from Hero Arts Year Round Sentiments and the doily is Hero Arts Circle Lace. Both were stamped in Versamark on Stampin' Up! Crumb Cake cardstock, then heat embossed with Ranger Ultra Fine Detail embossing powder in white. I colored the doily with Derwent colored pencils. I used a Versamarker to draw a shadow around the edge of the doily. I overstamped my sentiment with Versamark to create the drop shadow. I colored some plain clear rhinestones with a copic marker and added them on, then rounded my bottom corners with a Marvy/Uchida corner rounder punch.

CASE the Catalog Monday!
Happy Monday, all! As always, I have a new card to show you today, inspired by a project in the current Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog.
I really love their card from page 97. It has texture, soft colors, and beautiful stamping.
I tried to keep all of those elements in my version, although I used a different stamp set and slightly different colors. I also pulled my sentiment onto it's own panel and popped it up.
(Click on pictures to enlarge.)
About this card: The sentiment from Hero Arts was stamped in Stampin' Up! Early Espresso ink on white cardstock and matted with SU! Crumb Cake. The yellow and white baker's twine is from Reasonable Ribbon. The floral panel is the SU! set Inspired By Nature which I had colored with SU! markers in Early Espresso, Summer Sun, Apricot Appeal, Old Olive, and Always Artichoke, stamped on white cardstock that had been misted with water first. I accented this panel with a strip of SU! Crumb Cake that had been punched with my scallop border punch. The background is SU! Blush Blossom cardstock that has been dry embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder, and accented with two strips of cardstock (SU! Bashful Blue and SU! Old Olive) that were punched with a Paper Studio Lattice border punch.

What does a dragonfly symbolize? The main symbolisms of the dragonfly are renewal, positive force and the power of life in general. Dragonflies can also be a symbol of the sense of self that comes with maturity. Also, as a creature of the wind, the dragonfly frequently represents change. And as a dragonfly lives a short life, it knows it must live its life to the fullest with the short time it has - which is a lesson for all of us.

The lines have been taken from Samson Agonistes written by John Milton. Samson Agonistes was a poetic drama that was first published in 1671 with Milton's epic, Paradise Regained. His individual style has a touch of sublimity and majesty which is quite appropriate to his noble and powerful ideas.
Samson Agonistes is an adaptation of the Greek drama form in blank verse, which tells the tragedy of hero Samson who was made blind and put in captivity by enemies. Samson performed the important part in bringing down the empire of Philistines who were the mortal enemies of his race. Samson, also got killed in that disaster but his heroic act saved his tribesman from the deadly enemy. By virtue of his glorious deed, his named earned eternity.
Stanza No:1
He patient, but undaunted, where they led him———None daring to appear antagonist.
In these lines, Milton describes how Samson was brought in the assembly hall as the enemy had blinded and taken him as a prisoner. A guide led him to the hall. He walked with patience to the place where the guide led him. Then he was called upon to show the feats of power and skill. He performed could be done by a blind man. He heaved, pulled, drew and broke things with great strength and none have the courage to find faults with him. He performed everything in such an amazing manner that every body showered praises on him for his unbelievable acts of strength. His actions were simply unbelievable. Nobody dared to appear as his challenger in similar feats of strength.
Stanza No:2
At length for intermission sake they led him ———-That to the arched roof gave main support
The poet in these lines says that Samson reached near the big pillars. At last the show was over and the interval was announced. Samson was led by his guide to the pillars in order to give him some time to take rest and sigh of relief. Now as the people who stood near him heard Samson requested his guide to let him stand against the strong pillars with the both his hands on them. He told his guide that he wanted to do so simply because he wanted to have some rest. These pillars give a support to the arched roof where the high gentry of Philistine was sitting.
Stanza No: 3
He unsuspicious led him; which when Samson———–Or some great matter in his mind revolved
In these lines, we are told that the guide did not feel that there was anything wrong in. So, the guide accepted his request and let him rest against the pillars. Now Samson felt the pillars in his arms for Philistines had blinded him. Then he stood silent for some time, with his head bowed and his eyes fixed on the ground. He behaved as if he was going to offer his prayer, or wanted to reach a final decision on some matter of great importance. It appeared as if some important matter was revolving in his mind for he was standing seriously with his head down and eyes on the ground.
Stanza No:4
At last, with head erect thus cried aloud——–As with amaze shall strike all who behold.'
The poet tells us in these lines how Samson, addressed the people gathered there. He raised his head and in a loud voice he told them that till now he had obeyed them most obediently, showed some feats of strength and had never disobeyed their commands. Now he said, he wanted to show them some feats of strength of his own accord. These things would amaze all the holder and every body would be amazed who saw it. Actually Samson wanted to take them unawares. Therefore, he told them in a friendly way that he was going to show them some more wonderful feats of strength.
Stanza No:5
This uttered, straining all his nerves, he bowed ——– Upon the heads of all who sat beneath,
In these lines we are told how Samson pulled down the pillars upon the heads of his enemies. Samson applied his force to the pillars, which trembled just as mountains do against the fury of winds and water. He shook them in opposite directions, till the roof came down with a thundering noise. Thus, all those lords and captains who sat under the roof were crushed to death. Of course Samson too died, but in this way he took a revenge on his enemies. The two heavy pillars who gave support to the whole building were shaken with great force by Samson and after their motion of to and fro they came down. Samson succeeded in achieving his goal i.e to crush his enemies for it he use his full strength to pull the pillars down on the heads of his enemies. He shook the pillars again and again till they came down.
Stanza No:6
Lords, ladies, captains, councellors or priests ——— Pulled down the same destruction on himself.
The poet tells us in these lines that among the people who were crushed to death under the roof were lords, ladies, councellors and priests of the country. The people had assembled there from far and near to celebrate the feast. As Samson too was among them, he also met the same fate and was crushed to death. But, by sacrificing his own life, he killed the best people of the enemy nation. The people who killed were choicest nobility not only of this one city but also of all the Philistinian cities.

Jake Vehonsky had 207 yards and three touchdowns on 26 carries as Highland picked up its second win of the year, a 38-21 victory over visiting Desert Mountain on Thursday.
After Hawks' quarterback Blake Young connected with wideout Tyler Hatch for a 65-yard score to start the game, Vehonsky took over with touchdown runs of 16, 19 and 2 yards, all in the second half, to break open a 10-7 halftime lead.
For the game, Highland (2-5) outrushed the Wolves 256-108 and pushed its lead to 31-7 in the fourth quarter despite being penalized 16 times for 169 yards.
Desert Mountain quarterback Kyle Allen was 12-for-23 for 203 yards, but was picked off three times by the Hawks' defense.
Highland will look to continue their winning ways when they face Mesa Mountain View at home next Friday, while Desert Mountain (2-5) hosts Surprise Willow Canyon.
Williams Field 58, Apache Junction 14: Running back Alex Howard had 11 carries for 230 yards and five touchdowns as the host-Black Hawks rebounded from a rough start to steamroll Apache Junction. In addition to a stellar game by Howard, the Black Hawks also got a 75-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by Sean Schweichler that propelled Williams Field to a 23-point third quarter. Down 28-14 at the half, the Prospectors failed to score in the second half as they turned the ball over four times in the game. The Black Hawks (6-1) will host Casa Grande Vista Grande next Friday, while Apache Junction (1-6) will look to rebound on the road at Lakeside Blue Ridge.
Notre Dame 35, Shadow Mountain 14: Notre Dame quarterback Jordan Gehrke threw a 45-yard touchdown on fourth-and-2 late in the third quarter to put away host Phoenix Shadow Mountain. With the ball near midfield, Gehrke flung the ball to Hunter Bross as he was being sacked, and Bross did the rest by breaking a tackle on the way to a score. Gehrke's big play wasn't the only big play the Saints made in the third quarter. Notre Dame defender Luke Tuffuri got things started when he came across the middle and intercepted an errant Matador pass for a 21-yard interception return that increased the Saints' lead to 28-7. Notre Dame (3-4) led 21-7 at the half thanks in part to a Nick Cole 3-yard touchdown run that was set up by an interception and 35-yard return by Saints cornerback Mo White just before the end of the first half. Next up for Notre Dame is a home game at Scottsdale Community College on Friday versus Cactus Shadows.
McClintock 28, South Mountain 0: Sammy Jones had all four touchdowns for McClintock as the Chargers blanked visiting South Mountain. McClintock defensive back Joe Wells led the defense with a pair of interceptions. The Chargers (3-4) play next Thursday when the travel to Marcos de Niza.

I like this product but the bottle was only half full and I feel the packaging could be more efficient. The top half was stuffed with cotton. Could have added at least half again as many tablets.

Operating earnings of $31.9 million in the period decreased $1.1 million, or 3.3%, from 2011 levels, while the operating margin (operating earnings as a percentage of segment sales) of 11.6% increased from 11.2% a year ago.
Snap-on Tools Group segment sales of $321.6 million in the quarter rose $28.8 million, or 9.8%, from 2011 levels; excluding $1.4 million of favorable foreign currency translation, organic sales increased 9.3%, reflecting increases across both the company's U.S. and international franchise operations.Operating earnings of $45.6 million in the period increased $6.0 million, or 15.2%, from 2011 levels and the operating margin of 14.2% improved from 13.5% a year ago. Repair Systems & Information Group segment sales of $241.6 million in the quarter increased $5.1 million, or 2.2%, from 2011 levels; excluding $1.6 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation, organic sales rose 2.9%, primarily due to gains in sales of diagnostics and repair information products to repair shop owners and managers, and in sales to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) dealerships. Operating earnings of $55.4 million in the period increased $6.2 million, or 12.6%, from 2011 levels and the operating margin of 22.9% increased from 20.8% a year ago.

Celtics earn gritty win after ugly effort
Luke Ridnour looped around a screen and cut through the paint, one long step after the next. The lane was wide open, and nobody was there to stop him, and a late, one-point Celtics lead was about to be flipped upside down. Except Ridnour took one big step too many, and Ray Allen soared in like a miniature Bill Russell to swat away a shot that didn't even count.
The block resounded in the Garden rafters, and, though it didn't count, symbolized the late-game Celtics run. Through most of the game Kevin Love played volleyball off the backboard, Michael Beasley did his best impression of a late-game killer, and the Celtics looked lost. But when it counted, when these Celtics really needed to elevate their play at winning time, they made every play necessary, escaping the TD Garden with a 96-93 win.
Of course, that's the sunny side of looking at things. There was also a much gloomier side, mostly having to do with rebounding. When Kevin Love rebounds the ball only six fewer times than your entire team, it's time to look at yourselves in the mirror. I don't care if Kevin Garnett didn't play, and I don't care that Kevin Love is to rebounding what Boy Meets World is to children's shows. The C's still possess more than enough size (I'm looking at you, O'Neal brothers and Glen Davis) to rebound the basketball.
But the past few games have been a running clinic in how NOT to rebound. No Celtic big man grabbed more than three caroms tonight (congratulations, Jermaine O'Neal — you were the least shitty big man rebounder on the Celtics). Von Wafer — yes, Von Wafer — and Paul Pierce led the Celtics in rebounding, with six apiece. Next was Rajon Rondo, with four boards. The big men, though? Pathetic. In every sense of the word. There will be more teams that are Kevin Love'd this season, of course. But the Celtics, with all their size and experience, should never be subjected to such a poor showing on the glass. Even if KG's injured.
There were other aspects of tonight's game, of course. Von Wafer was one major bright spot, and I find myself thinking that — by the time this season's all said and done — he could become a huge cog off the bench. At the very least, he's now proving himself capable of playing legitimate basketball. Nate Robinson was one major dark spot, as I continuously find myself marveling at his seesaw nature.
But I'll save my other thoughts for tomorrow. For now, just remember a gritty win that shouldn't have needed to be so gritty. These Celtics are now showing the effects of cumulative injuries, and I don't want to get used to gutting out wins versus Minnesota. Even if Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo hit plenty of clutch jumpers to help seal the deal.
One Response to "Celtics earn gritty win after ugly effort"
Well that was a pathetic win. With 5:30 left in the 4th qtr Kevin Love had 23 rebounds to the Celtics (team) 25. What the f***??? The Celtic starters had 4 rebs through the 1st half. Hey Doc, ever think about speaking about rebounding, especially defensive rebounding where the Cs are currently 27th out of 30 teams??? Why can't Davis get more than 1 reb in 27 minutes? Even Shaq had only 2 after 28 mins but he usually delivers. Even Wafer had 6 rebs in only 11 mins of playing time (nice game too). And to all the 'hey it's a back-to-back and they're injured naysayers' – wake up as this is a glaring example of a team that is not bringing it as they should, especially against sub .500 teams. Go Cs…nice post Jay!

The British Plastics Federation (BPF) has published a guidance document relating to environmental claims on plastic products.
It covers terms including 'bio-based', 'biodegradable', 'compostable' and 'renewable' for UK companies that produce plastics materials and additives and/or sell plastic products.
For biodegradable the document states: "Claims that a product or package is 'biodegradable' shall be verifiable and substantiated by competent and reliable scientific evidence as required by the UK Green Claims Code and ISO 14021."
Under renewable, the guidance says: "Claims that a product or package is 'renewable' should be used with great care as there is currently no internationally agreed definition for the term."
The BPF said the guidance is not intended to supersede existing UK/EU legislation, mandatory advertising codes and/or government guidance which will still be the key sources for ensuring that advertising and marketing are fully compliant in respect of environmental claims.

Single-sex education is best for girls in stereotypically male subjects...
But new research from Concordia University shows not everyone benefits from single-sex education -- especially not those who don't conform to gender norms. The recent study, published in the peer-reviewed journal Sex Roles, shows that girls in single-sex schools more often report feeling more pressure to act like "typical girls" than their counterparts in mixed-sex schools.
Under the leadership of William Bukowski, Concordia psychology professor and Director of the Centre for Research in Human Development (CRDH), the research team interviewed 469 fourth-, fifth- and sixth-grade girls from same- and mixed-sex schools. The girls were asked to respond to statements "I like to do the things that most girls like to do" to establish feelings related to gender identity.
This research was carried out in lower middle class neighbourhoods in Bogotá and Barranquilla, Colombia. By performing the study in Latin America, the researchers had increased access to same-sex schooling because of the greater frequency of all-girls schools. The traditional Latin American emphasis on machismo also provided a more marked contrast between the genders.
"Whereas tween-aged girls from single-sex schools who display characteristics typical to their gender are less likely to be victimized by their peers, there is no such association for the girls in mixed-sex schools," explains Concordia PhD candidate Kate Drury, lead author of the study.
"Along with feeling like more typical girls, the girls in the single-sex schools felt more pressure to conform to gender norms (e.g. "It would bother the kids in my class if I acted like a boy"), suggesting that spending more time with same-gender peers leads to feeling more pressure to behave 'like a girl,'" says Drury, who is also a researcher with the CRDH.
"In other words, it doesn't matter whether boys are present or not, if children feel a lot of pressure to conform to gender norms then it follows that being gender atypical in that environment is going to be difficult," says Drury.
What does this mean for the single- vs. mixed-sex schooling debate? "The negative repercussions of not conforming to gender roles are stronger in all-girl schools," says Bukowski. "Parents of gender atypical children should take these factors into account when deciding on what school is best."
About the study: This study was conducted by Kate Drury and William Bukowsky (Concordia University), Ana M. Velásquez (Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, Colombia) and Luz Stella-Lopez (Universidad del Norte, Barranquilla, Colombia). Work on this paper was supported by grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and the Fonds Québécois de la Recherche sur la Société et la Culture.

What Does The Fox Really Say? LISTEN
By Mark Memmott
It's got a long way to go before ever becoming the next Gangnam Style YouTube sensation, but the The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?) is doing pretty well — 150 million views and counting as of Wednesday morning.
If you haven't yet heard and seen the video from two Norwegian brothers who call themselves Ylvis, we'll embed it. Or just ask the closest kid to show it to you. It's a sensation with the younger set.
Meanwhile, our friends at Southern California Public Radio were on to this craze well before us. Last month, they posted both the Ylvis video and a compilation of the sounds that foxes really make.
This blogger can attest to how eerie it can be to hear a fox at 5 a.m. as he (the blogger, not the fox) heads off to work. Check it out.

Key is a Japanese visual novel studio which formed on July 21, 1998 as a brand under the publisher Visual Art's and is located in Kita, Osaka, Japan. Key released their debut visual novel Kanon in June 1999, which combined an elaborate storyline, an up-to-date anime-style drawing style, and a musical score which helped to set the mood for the game. Key's second game Air released in September 2000 had a similar if not more complex storyline to Kanon and a more thorough gameplay. Both Kanon and Air were originally produced as adult games, but Key broke this trend with their third title Clannad which was released in April 2004 for all ages. Key has worked in the past with Interchannel and Prototype for the consumer port releases of the brand's games. Key collaborated with ASCII Media Works' Dengeki G's Magazine to produce the mixed media project Angel Beats!, which was produced into an anime TV series in 2010. The brand's ninth game Rewrite was released in June 2011, and a fan disc for the game titled Rewrite Harvest festa! was released in July 2012. Co-founder Jun Maeda is a prominent figure in the brand, he having contributed on the planning, scenario, and music composition in the majority of Key's visual novels. Itaru Hinoue, also a co-founder, is Key's main artist and was the art director for Key's first three games. Na-Ga, another prominent artist in the brand, mainly worked with background art in earlier games, but with Key's sixth game Little Busters! was given the position of co-art director with Hinoue. Shinji Orito, Key's main composer and another co-founder, has composed music for the majority of Key's titles. Yūto Tonokawa, a scenario writer, first worked on the scenario in Little Busters!.

Reflecting on 2005
I realize this is posted a little late, but I've been busy.
I'm not one to keep a personal journal. As livejournal and blogging have taken off, so has journaling of ones life, but I've never gotten into that. I have no hard and fast rules about it, I just don't do it. I actually like reading the journals of people who spill every little detail of their life on the Internet. All the minutiae and scandal. The voyeur in me loves it. It's just that I don't do it.
But it's at a time like right now where I wish I did keep a journal of my day-to-day activities as I sit down to write this short reflection of what 2005 was like for me. Now, keep in mind, I'm a rather private person in many ways. Sure, amongst my friends I'm an open book, but I've never felt comfortable sharing every intimate detail of my life with the people "out there," nor have I really felt people would or should be all that interested. With that in mind, I offer the following.
2005 was a very mixed bag of a year for me. It contained some unbelievable highs and almost unbearable lows. It was a year of flux, in many ways, in that I didn't really make any plans or set any goals for 2005. The end of 2004 was tough for me (my father's health started a deep decline in 2004 which affected my every move) and thinking forward to 2005 was something I wasn't really capable of doing. I simply wasn't in the right headspace for that to happen.
Let's deal with the negatives of 2005 first so that we can end on a high note. The most tragic moment for me in 2005 (and in my life) came on December 8th when my Father died. I've never dealt with significant loss before. In high school a guy I knew died, but I wasn't too close to him. Five years ago an old co-worker of mine died, but I wasn't that close to him either. I've known friends who've had to deal with loss on this scale before, but never knew how to relate. I always felt uncomfortable saying anything, feeling anything I said would simply be ponderous under the circumstances. Now I have a distinct understanding of what they went through and understand how even a quick phone call to check in goes a long way in the– while it's a cliché, it's also very true– healing process. The e-mails, phone calls and condolence cards all really meant a lot. Before now, it never even occurred to me to send a condolence card. It's amazing how a simple handwritten note reminds you that there are people out there thinking of you at a time when you're at your lowest.
One of the other big negatives of 2005 comes with some huge positives. On December 6th, two days before my Father died, my Mother went into the hospital to have exploratory surgery– her cancer was back. She had cancer three years ago and successfully beat it, but as is often the nature with these things, it returned. The great news, though, is that it was caught very early, exists on a microscopic level and she's already undergoing chemotherapy treatment and all indications are that it's very treatable. She may have to go through this again, then again she may not. We don't know. What we do know is that it's being addressed and the Doctors are very positive. So, some good with the bad there. What made it all worse, especially for my Mom, is that my Father passed away during all this, further ratcheting up the emotional response we all had and continue to have.
Outside of those two events I can think of only one other moment that resulted in my wanting to exact severe levels of pain on something, someone or anything in the world. As most of you know, one of the two businesses I run is Comic Book Resources, the largest comics magazine on the Internet. This past July saw the annual Comic-Con International take place in San Diego, of which CBR would be providing coverage as usual. On the morning of the fourth day of the convention, the CBR server took a dump. You can read all the nasty details here. It was one of those "perfect storm" type situations. The timing was just awful. It was a painful 24-48 hours or so, but ultimately both I and CBR survived.
Outside of those three events (the third clearly being of less importance in the face of the other news), I can't think of anything else that was a huge set-back for myself. There were your general ups and downs, but nothing I can of that's worth mentioning.
On the other hand, there were some great moments for me in 2005, most of which involved travel. I think it's clear that travel is something that really should be a regular part of my life.
In February I flew off to Montreal to visit the set of the upcoming Darren Aronofsky film "The Fountain." You can read CBR's coverage of the visit here and here. While I've visited the sets of sitcom's before, I've never visited a feature film set before and absolutely enjoyed every moment of it. The experience was a great one. Not only was this the first time I've visited a feature film set, but this trip also included a number of other firsts for me:
- This was the first time I visited Canada.
- It was the first time I experienced snow fall. I've visited snowy regions before, gone skiing in its icy coldness, but never have I seen the snow fall from the sky. My first night in Montreal it snowed and all those things I've heard about snowfall were proven true: the quiet, serenity of a new snowfall is a wonderful thing indeed.
- It was the first time I've ever flown on a plane that needed to be de-iced. Going through de-icing is equal parts calming and stress inducing. It's nice to know they're removing the ice so as to allow the plan to fly, but of course the question comes to mind, "If there's ice on the plane, should we really be flying at all?" This of course is coming from a complete novice in the "flying during snowy weather" camp, so that's simply a first reaction to something that's rather common place in today's world.
Later in the year I flew to London for another set visit, this time to check out the March debuting film "V For Vendetta." Unfortunately those reports are embargoed until the end of January, so I can't discuss the set visit itself, but the trip was fantastic. I had my trip extended by a couple of days so that I could spend some time in my second favorite city in the world. I got to return to Camden Town for some shopping, explored London via the Jack The Ripper walk, took in a great many sites and visited with my friend Rich.
Now, some time ago I had contemplated the idea of moving to London for three months just for the hell of it. I work the kind of job that allows me to work from almost anywhere, as long as I have a broadband connection. I fell in love with London during my 2003 visit and figured spending some more time there would be a great idea. But the trip in 2005, done completely alone, pointed out to me just how alone I would be in that city were I to move there for three months. Sure, I'd probably make friends quickly and know some people there already, but I really would be alone and I'm not quite sure I'd be into that. One day I'm sure I'll spend some extended time in London, but I don't expect I'll be doing it alone or on a whim. There needs to be a purpose to it other than "just to do it."
The other huge moment for me in 2005 had to be my recent visit to China. China wasn't on my list of places to visit, but when my younger sister Sharon asked me if I'd like to go with her, I couldn't resist the opportunity. It was an amazing trip filled with long-lasting memories. It's one of those trips you'll never forget and I'm glad I got to do it with Sharon.
All told, my travels in 2005 were a lot of fun. The cities I visited include Montreal, San Francisco, San Diego, Chicago, London, Hong Kong and Beijing. The sad part is I had to turn down a trip to Australia and a second trip to San Francisco. In 2006 I plan on increasing my travels, hopefully making a trip down to Australia and New Zealand, as well as a return trip to London at some point. We'll see how things settle out.
Outside of those trips, the rest of the year wasn't too bad. Both CBR and my hosting businesses had their ups and downs, but by years end everything was positive and there are good things to come on both fronts. Personally my life is well, having fostered existing friendships, made some great new ones and culling a few that no longer fit right.
One thing I learned about myself this year is that I need to get back to a more creative place in my life. Six years ago I left radio to work for myself. It's not a decision I regret, but by leaving radio I found myself in more of an administrative position compared to my previous creative position as Producer of the Phil Hendrie radio show. While working with Phil wasn't always flowers and candy, it was the most creative time of my life and one of the most personally rewarding. I think back to those days of creativity and know I need to return to that level of fun and excitement again. I lost some of that wonder and need to rediscover it.
Naturally there were a great many other events that occurred in 2005, but either they're of a nature too personal for me to share, or I simply can't remember them anymore. Any way you look at it, 2005 was a mixed bag for me. I'm hoping 2006 is filled with more highs than lows. Now it's time for me to plan my method of attack in 2006. I'm confident it'll be a good one.
