2012 Orange Mane Mock Draft UDFA Thread
The 2012 OM Mock Draft is done and dusted, but if you have any deep sleepers on your board that went undrafted, have no fear -- the 2012 UDFA round is here!
The UDFA (UnDrafted Free Agent) round is open to all 32 participants of the regular mock draft -- you don't have to participate if you don't want to, but all picks will be included in your mock draft haul and count towards bragging rights.
2008 UDFA Round Results: http://www.orangemane.com/BB/showthread.php?t=67629
2009 UDFA Round Results: http://www.orangemane.com/BB/showthread.php?t=79818
2010 UDFA Round Results: http://www.orangemane.com/BB/showthread.php?t=90729
2011 UDFA Round Results: http://www.orangemane.com/BB/showthread.php?t=97743
Here are the details for this year (exactly the same as 2011):
1. All teams begin with $100,000 to bid for players which were not selected in the 2012 OM Mock Draft. Bidding is done blindly and privately -- in other words, all bids are sent to me via PM, and the results are revealed at the conclusion of the bidding period. DO NOT POST YOUR BIDS IN THIS THREAD!
2. Minimum bid for a player is $5000. Bids can be made in $100 increments only. There will only be one round of bidding, so any cash you have left over will be useless. In other words - use it or lose it.
3. Please send all bids via one and only one PM to me (BowlenBall) any time between the last selection in the OM Mock Draft and Monday, April 23rd, at 11:59 p.m. MST. Please title the PM "UDFA Round Picks for NFL TEAM NAME". All bids received after the deadline will be considered null and void.
4. Please submit bids in this format:
Name, Position, College, Bid
Rulon Jones, DE, Utah State, $30,000
Randy Gradishar, LB, Ohio State, $11,400
Joe Dudek, RB, Plymouth State, $23,700
Total Spent: $65,100
5. Please do not submit bids for players who have already been selected in the mock draft. Refer to the Alpha list or the main pick thread before you submit your bid. Any bids for pre-selected players will be ignored, and the team owner will NOT be notified of his error.
6. Tiebreaker: if two or more teams bid the same amount for the same player, then whoever submitted their bid first will be considered the winner.
7. Results will be posted shortly past midnight on Tuesday, April 24th.
8. In the interests of transparency, I will submit my own list via PM to JCMElway before the official bidding period begins, and before I review any of the bids submitted. In addition, I will disqualify myself from the tiebreaker rules, meaning that any tie that I am involved with will go to the other team.
9. As I receive bids, I will post confirmation below, along with a sequence number indicating when they submitted it to me (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.).
Denver (Shanananahan): 1st to submit bids
Kansas City
Oakland (JCMElway): 12th to submit bids

- Friendly Plastic – 1 oz pellets
- ProBead Roller - #6 Oval (optional)
- Friendly Plastic Sticks – advocado/black, metallic turquoise/blue
- Needle Tool
- Pearl Ex Powder – pearl white
- Two Eye Pins
- E-6000 glue
- Chain
- Accent Beads of choice
- Toggle or clasp
- Griddle
- Heat Gun (optional)
- Non-stick cookie sheet
- Ball tipped metal stylus – small/medium size
- Silpat – non stick cookie mat
- Bowl of Cold Water
- Scissors (Tim Holtz – work the best to cut plastic)
- Pliers
- Baby Oil
Tip: Set griddle to approximately 160 to 180 degrees. Melt Pellets on non-stick sheet until clear. Add a small amount of baby oil to hands and tools to prevent sticking. Use caution when working with the griddle and Friendly Plastic to avoid injury. If Friendly Plastic bubbles it is too hot, remove from heat and lower temperature of griddle.
- Working with Friendly Plastic requires a degree of heat and cold water. Generally with each application of heat, there is a cooling in water to set that particular area. That way I can work on a specific area at one time without distorting other areas.
- Mix a small amount of Pearl-Ex Powder into the melted pellets. This does not need to be completely mixed as it will create a marbled effect.
- Reheat plastic as necessary to soften and continue mixing. When mixing is complete, place plastic onto non stick cookie sheet and heat completely on the griddle.
- Cut three 1/8" x 2" wide strips of advocado green and a 1" square of turquoise.
- Add a drop of oil to silpat and heat turquoise square. Once soft, press stylus into plastic just inside of edge and press outwards. This creates a scalloped pattern. Continue until you have a pleasing pattern. Cool completely in water.
- To create bead in bead roller: Make approximately a 1" ball, place it into the bead roller. Gently place the lid on and roll back and forth applying gradual pressure until bead forms. If bead does not completely form – add more plastic. If it squishes out the sides, remove some plastic then reheat and reform.
- To hand form a bead, simply roll into palm of hand and form a pleasing shape. Cool in cold water.
- Use heat gun for 5 seconds to lightly soften lacey plastic. Apply to base bead where desired. Use heat gun to manipulate the lace effect into place. Cool in water to set.
- Slightly heat green strips and apply to bead as desired. Cool.
- Heat the area for the jewels. Press in jewels. Cool.
- Using pliers, heat the end of eye pin and press into top and bottom of bead.
- Once cooled, remove eye pins and jewels. Secure in place with glue. Allow to dry.
- Add to chain along with any accent beads.

For fighting fans looking to invest in an arcade fightstick, you have two options: controllers that were made by Mad Catz and controllers that weren't. There's just no comparison. Mad Catz FightSticks are the best. Period. Accept no substitutes or imitations. These controllers are the real deal – and with a limited production run of 5,000 units, this Collector's Edition stick for the PS3 is as amazing as it is rare.
It would have been so easy to slap some official artwork over a cheap block of plastic and call it an 'official' fighstick. But that's just not the Mad Catz way. There's a nice weight to this FightStick. With its high-quality arcade components and sleek layout, this FightStick is great for precise inputs and taps. But it can also take a beating. So even if a losing streak winds up with you going all "HULK SMASH!" on its incredibly solid frame, this FightStick will keep on ticking.
Above: Remember, we only have ONE PlayStation 3 version to giveaway. Our apologies to 360 owners
Above: You're going to want to keep the box handy, as the great packaging doubles as a handy case for the best FightStick ever made
Above: Head here for more high-quality Mad Catz products
Above: Do you have what it takes to face our mighty reCAPTCHA anti-spam system to leave a comment? If so, you could be the lucky winner who receives this box of greatness
Above: Yes, the artwork looks great. But it's what's on the inside that matters. This Mad Catz FightStick is made with quality arcade cabinet components
Above: This FightStick is Chris Antista approved (even though he can't do any combos). Follow TalkRadar's host with the most on Twitter (@cantista) for more furious faces
To enter, just leave a comment on this article by 9:00 am (Pacific Time) on Monday, February 28. You can read our official contest rules here. US and Canadian residents only please. Our apologies to all readers from other countries.
The winner will be selected at random and can expect to receive a PM from one of our administrators early next week. Don't forget to check your inbox on the site to see if you've won!
Good luck!

WATERBURY -- A U.S. Postal Service supervisor arrested in November after federal authorities say he stole a package loaded with cocaine was expected to plead guilty today to charges related to the case.

The images for October-December 2008. Happy, smiling, accessible: the cuddly Chris.
Over the weekend, I found myself at a Grand Junction Borders book store, which was selling off its remaining 2009 calendars for $1 apiece. And smack in the middle of the stacks was an item that seemed time-capsule ready: a sixteen-month calendar featuring pop sensation turned tabloid villain Chris Brown, whose teen-friendly reputation took what could be a lethal blow when he was booked by Los Angeles police on the eve of the Grammy Awards for allegedly abusing his girlfriend, fellow performer Rihanna. Here, the visuals from what has now become the weirdest type of pop-cultural collector's item. -- Michael Roberts

Sound quality is good, does not hurt the ear as some inner headphones do. Easy to connect, all the bottons work fine.

Any phone that has a control on the wire is of great quality. This handset has a modern design blends well with the design of the PSP.

Howdy! I grew up on a farm in Northwestern Minnesota where I developed a love for nature. I moved to southwestern North Dakota in 1973 and fell in love with the Badlands and Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I worked fo the Theodore Roosevelt Medora Foundation for 35 years as a horse wrangler and performer, also worked on various cattle and horse ranches.It was in Medora where I developed an interest in photography,and it developed over the years. I'm self taught but have attended workshops and camera clubswhere I picked up valuable tips on photography.I like nature and wildlife photography, but take images of any thing that strikes me as beautiful and different.The Japanese have a saying, "ICHIGO ICHIE", which means an unprecedented, unrepeatable encounter, the moment will never happen exactly the same way again. That is what I try to capture with my images.

One lucky couple can win a wedding valued over $150,000 scheduled on March 27 at the Waterfront Beach Resort in Huntington Beach, Calif.
Congratulations to the five couples that made it to the final selection round of the Orange County Register and Waterfront Beach Resort's wedding contest. The five couples sat in front of judges from the Waterfront Beach Resort and the Register this week to convince them why they feel they deserve to win the $150,000 luxury wedding at the Waterfront Beach Resort. The judges will announce their pick on Jan. 11, 2011.
Here's what the couples had to say for themselves:
Submitted by David
Why should you win? Because I want to give Jillian the best honeymoon ever!!! I am a high school teacher and varsity girls basketball coach ... and had to move home to start saving up for the wedding. Jillian is a college volleyball player studying to be a nurse in San Diego.
It's hard to save up for a wedding. Who knew weddings were so expensive?!? We would just love the opportunity to truly "live it up" one time.
STEVE BURGESS AND MEGAN McMILLIAN
Submitted by Megan
Why should you win? Steve and I met on Sept. 6, 2009, through mutual friends. Come to find out, we actually went to high school together but didn't know each other then. At ages 33 and 34, both of our families had started to accept that maybe marriage wasn't going to happen for us. After only dating three months, on Dec. 12, 2009, my mom got a call for a double lung transplant. Ironically enough, my dad had a liver transplant on the exact same date 13 years earlier. It was a very exciting and scary time.
We had a rough 3 ½ months with mom in the hospital, a lot of complications and many hours by her bedside. I knew Steve was the man I would spend the rest of my life with after being there for me physically and emotionally. My mom has always been my best friend and nothing broke my heart more than her not surviving this transplant and missing my wedding day. Steve proposed on Sept. 11 and my mom is doing well, has already started planning the big day and can't wait to see me in that beautiful white dress like we both have always dreamed.

It's been ten years since Rakim – known to many as the greatest emcee of all time – has dropped an album. His last LP was during the post-Biggie jiggy era, where he found solace among the production of Clark Kent and DJ Premier, both whom helped him stay true to his craft, while also adapting to the hot sound of the time. Shortly after, it was announced that Rakim would release an album on Dr. Dre's Aftermath imprint entitled "Oh My God" – a prospect that had fans saying just that, as arguably the greatest emcee and greatest producer of all time would team up for an album. Unfortunately, we only caught a glimpse of how this collaboration would manifest itself. On Jay-Z's "The Watcher Pt. 2", Rakim murdered Dre's spaghetti-western track, while Truth Hurts belted out the hook, leaving mouths watering for Ra's Aftermath debut. Truth also collaborated with Rakim on her hit single, "Addicitive" – as well as it's remix – again proving great results between Rakim and Aftermath. Finally, one track, "After U Die", an incomplete song, was leaked to the internet. But as time went on, that mysterious "Oh My God" album was mentioned less and less, until it eventually was announced that Rakim had left the label, and the project was canned.
"Creative differences" seemed to be the reason for the split, as Rakim and Dr. Dre have two entirely different philosophies as far as lyrical content is concerned, which pretty much can be determined by comparing any two verses from the artists respective careers. Since the dust has settled, Rakim has formed his own label, Ra Records, for the release his seventh album, "The Seventh Seal".
It's possible we get a fleeting vision of what kind of music he planned for "Oh My God", as "The Seventh Seal" has some of the darkest music ever made by Rakim. For instance, "The Documentary Of A Gangster" finds the god emcee omnisciently speaking from the perspective of a drug dealer / pimp over ominous pianos obviously inspired by Dre's production style. On the Maino featured "Walk These Streets", the two spit over a familiar track – again suggesting this was a leftover from the Dre sessions, as virtually the same beat was used on Busta Rhymes' "Been Through The Storm" from his 2006 Aftermath / Flipmode album, The Big Bang. Coincidence or no?
Unfortunately, this look into the crystal ball is brief, instead leaving Rakim with production from Nick Wiz, Nottz, Needlez, and Neo Da Matix for the rest of the album. Despite the fact that these guys are all capable producers for your average rapper, we're talking about Rakim here. His influence to hip-hop as a whole aside, Ra has worked with several of hip-hop greatest producers ever, including Dr. Dre, DJ Premier, Pete Rock, and Marley Marl. We understand the Dre situation, but surely the others weren't too far out of reach?
Because of this, midway through the album we get a truly boring crop of tracks, which suggest that Rakim is out of touch with what kind of beats his fans want to hear him over – underground, mainstream, or otherwise. Despite this, the album plods along with average results – nothing horible, but nothing outstanding either.
The Jake One produced "Won't Be Long" sounds like vintage Rakim, as he confesses the hardships he's had over the years, as is the groovy "Put It All To Music", both of which could have fit on Don't Sweat The Technique, respectively. Here Ra sounds in his element, however he's only a track or two away from pulling us out of 90′s bliss with songs like already dated "Satisfaction Guaranteed", produced by Ruff Ryders keyboard stabber, Neo Da Matrix. The album's closing note, "Dedicated", finds Ra sampling No Doubt's "Don't Speak" (yes, really), which suggests The R has officially jumped the shark. Despite this, Ra delivers some of his most personal, powerful lyrics of his career, lending substance to an otherwise risky move.
The Seventh Seal is not a terrible album by any stretch of the imagination, however it's not great either. The problem is that Rakim exudes greatness and his production should match that. He deserves better than a ragtag team of producers whom most likely worked for pennies (if that), just to stand in his presence. Hopefully, Ra can use his influence and legacy to get some better production next time around. Either that, or bow out gracefully. – DJ Pizzo

Dear Fan,
Is there a way to kick someone out of your band gently? After a few months with a new synth player, we are all getting tired of his flaky behavior, being late to practice and him being too drunk to load out. He's a nice guy, but we need to find someone else who is as committed and responsible as the rest of the band. I don't want him to think we are judging him or make him feel bad.

Jang Keun-suk, Girls' Generation Yoona begin shooting upcoming drama
10아시아최종수정 2011.09.26 17:40기사입력 2011.09.26 17:40
|Cast of "Love Rain" (tentative title) [Tree J. Company]
Hallyu star Jang Keun-suk and Girls' Generation member Yoona started shooting their upcoming TV series, according to the show's promoter Tree J. Company.
On Monday, Tree J. announced in a press release that shooting began for "Love Rain" (tentative title) in the city of Daegu over the weekend.
The scene they shot was of Seo In-ha (Jang) and Kim Yoon-hee (Yoona) from when they are in the 1970s.
"Love Rain," a collaboration between famed director Yoon Suk-ho and scenarist Oh Soo-yeon who have worked on hit series "Autumn Tale" and "Winter Sonata," tells the story of how Seo In-ha will do anything for Kim Yoon-hee during the 1970s.
The series, also starring actor Kim Si-ho, actresses So Eun-seo and Hwang Bora and singer Seo In-guk, will compare relationships from the 1970s to the present time and is slated to make its premiere during the first half of next year.
"I feel that I was able to show the preparations that I made for 'Love Rain' in the scenes that we shot at the school campus and director Yoon and the staff did a great job portraying the light and different angles," Jang was quoted as saying.
"I too feel like I was able to complete the first shoot with the directions that Yoon gave us and it was a great start for our series," Yoona said in the press release.

Online Safety Fears Amid Increased Internet Dating Activity
GUERNSEY, January 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
It has been reported recently that dating agencies have seen a huge rise in popularity in the weeks after the Christmas period and a great deal of increased activity. This is great news for online daters, but internet safety experts advertSAFE are urging users to take extra care when they sign up to dating sites.
Dating agencies have reportedly seen a 350 per cent increase in traffic in the weeks after Christmas and it's easy to see why. The Christmas and New Year periods give people plenty of time to reflect on what they want out of their love lives and many people take to dating sites to find partners who share their outlook.
However, the internet is not just a place of great potential when it comes to connectivity.

The Vapor Trail 125 is broken up into 5 sections. Each little section has it's own little flavor to give you a taste of Colorado in it's purist form. This event is epic to say the least. The views, terrain, and people involved make this underground one of the top events I have ever had the pleasure to compete in. Below is a recap to the best of my dazed and confused memory.
Blanks Cabin Aid Station
The race started at Midnight. Temps in Salida were pretty mild...about 60 degrees when we head out. The race began with a moto lead out for about 7 miles of pavement. We rode as a group for 6 of those 7 miles. Once the moto pulled away, I went to the front and went into my rhythm. I was comfy and just kept pedaling. Soon we entered a forest service road which was a gentle grade and gravel. I looked back only to see 3 other lights with me. I looked farther back to see no other racers. I was pretty surprised. The 4 of us pushed on in a pace line. The 3 riders with me all had the same jerseys...so I was keeping an eye out for team tactics. We rode on for a few more miles. Then a light came up behind us. It was Matt. He said nothing and just kept moving forward. He was also on a singlespeed. His pace was faster than I wanted to go....in fact no one chased him. We then rolled onto the first check point. Here we entered the Colorado Trail.
Cascade Aid Station
Once the Colorado Trail the course went to demanding singletrack. The soil was like kitty litter. Very very loose. My "testrider" tires from Conti were not really liking this stuff. I was having issues keeping the front tire from washing out at speed on corners. And not being able to see over the edge of the trail......was scary. On this section of trail we saw it all: roots, rocks, steep climbs, and wash-outs. Due to some minor tire wash outs and hike-a-bike sections I was caught be 2 other riders. They went by.....only for me to come upon one of them moments later fixing a flat. The enire time since we left the start line in Salida....we had been climbing. This was obvious by the tiny little lights in the valley below. We soon dumped out of the Colorado Trail onto a gravel road which took us to the Cascade Aid Station. Since I was good with all nutrition, I checked in then kept moving forward.
Whitepine Aid Station
After departing the Cascade aid station we entered a 10 foot wide section of trail. This trail went up and up. The grade was mellow, but just steep enough to know that you were climbing. This trail eventually dumped out onto a gravel forest service road....then a really rough forest service road. The road continued to climb. For me at this part of the course it was about 5:30 AM. The temps were right near freezing and my toes were cold. Cold enough, that I would ride a mile then get off and run 100 yards. Then get back on. The road continued to climb. The sun was starting come up and it was starting to let me finally see the CO country side. Once off the road we headed on to the Alpine Tunnel. This trail was on the ledge of the mountain and was rough! Think railroad tracks minus the rails. I continued on passing frost on the small vegetation and old mining relics. Once at the end of the Alpine Tunnel trail the course markings pointed up! The course was steep requiring hiking with the bike. I hiked....and hiked....and hiked. Once to the top, the sun was up enough to show that I was well above the tree line.
Dave Wiens was manning the station and said that I was doing well being the 7th person to pass through. He asked how I was doing, and I told him fine. In fact I felt like a million bucks. At the aide station I ate a few cookies, filled my bottle, and pushed on to Monarch Pass.
Monarch Pass Aid Station
Upon departing for Monarch Pass I asked Dave Wiens how far it was to the top. He said only 13 miles. I was happy, cause 13 miles doesn't seem far....so I thought. It started with a super fast gravel road descent. Then a sharp left onto more gravel. Then a sharp left on gravel road to the top of Monarch Pass. The sign read "Monarch Pass 7 Miles". Cool! So I pushed it. About 1/2 way up I started to get bloated and really, really weak. It got so bad that I was having a hard time turning over the pedals....even the granny gear. I kept moving forward.....switchback after switchback. I was moving sloooooow. I was wondering if I could even finish this event. While crawling up the mountain I was caught be 3 guys. All 3 said I didn't look to hot....and all 3 dropped me like a bad habit in their granny rings.
Indian Creek Aid Station
After leaving Monarch Pass the course became a video game. Lots of fun flowy singletrack with epic views on the spine of the Rocky Mountains. After about 40 minutes of riding I started to feel better. I was able to jump the chain up onto the big ring and just rage the trails. I was shortly before 10 AM when I was riding towards Indian Creek. The weather was clear and temps were in the upper 60s. Everything was starting to click. My intake of Clif Bars, Power Bars, ELETE, and SIS was doing the trick. I pounded out the miles to Indian Creek which ended in a super fast rocky descent. This down hill was one to turn the brake rotors to liquid metal. By passing the station I pushed on to the next pass which had to be climbed. With worries of a similar experience to that of Monarch Pass I kept the pace respectable. While heading toward the pass, the skies began to darken with storm clouds. Sure enough, with in seconds it was raining....then hailing. I decided to not stop an put on clothing. I pushed on, only to see a racer standing under a tree to keep dry. This was one of the original riders that passed me at the beginning of the race. I gave a wave...then went on my way. About half way up Marshall Pass he caught me. We talked...then he dropped me. He didn't attack me, I just slowed down from fatigue. Finally, I rolled into the last aid station. I downed yet another Red Bull, then pushed onto the finish in Salida. The course ended with 10 miles of singletrack on the Silver Creek Trail followed by a 10 mile paved road drop into town.
At about 4:28 PM, I rolled to the Finish Line. Good enough for 7th overall. You can bet I will be back for the next version....the event is as epic as it gets. I have never ever ridden anything like it!

The Obama administration's plan to slash the carbon dioxide billowing from power plants relies more on operating efficiencies and low-polluting technologies than on shuttering coal-fired plants.
The nation's first limits on carbon dioxide, announced Monday, would reduce carbon emissions 30 percent by 2030, compared with 2005. Much of the reduction would begin in 2020. The proposal would let states decide how to reach state-by-state targets.
Charlotte-based Duke Energy, the nation's biggest electric utility and second-largest carbon emitter, said it was reviewing the 645-page proposal and has not yet assessed impacts to its operations or costs to its 7.2 million customers in six states.
Environmentalists hailed the plan as an overdue step to slow climate change. Skeptics called it a job-killing scheme that will cost consumers billions.
"Today is a momentous day, when the government is finally saying what it needed to say" about climate change, said Robert Bruck, an N.C. State University environmental scientist.
House Speaker John Boehner predicted the plan would cost consumers an extra $17 billion a year and kill 224,000 jobs annually.
"It's a sucker punch for families everywhere paying more for just about everything in the president's fragile economy," Boehner said.
The Environmental Protection Agency estimates annual costs of the plan at $7.3 billion to $8.8 billion and public health and climate benefits of $55 billion to $93 billion a year by 2030.
North Carolina's power plants will be expected to reduce their carbon emission rates 40 percent by 2030, according to EPA figures.
The outlook in N.C.
Emission rates show how efficiently power plants operate. The rates are calculated by dividing their emissions by the amount of electricity the plants generate.
EPA set North Carolina's 2030 target at 992 pounds of carbon dioxide for every megawatt-hour generated. The rate in 2012 was 1,646 pounds. The state's power plants released 53 million metric tons of carbon dioxide in 2012, the agency said.
The targets reflect what the states have achieved so far in reducing emissions and what EPA believes is attainable.
"A state that has a lot of renewables or is far ahead on energy efficiency, for instance, will not have as far to go and will be credited with their work in those areas," a senior agency official said Monday.
North Carolina, like 37 other states, has a renewable-energy standard that has boosted solar power. The state also cracked down in 2002 on power-plant releases of pollutants that form soot and smog, placing it ahead of neighboring states.
Duke, meanwhile, has shut down half of its 14 North Carolina coal-fired power plants rather than install state-of-the-art pollution controls required by existing or impending federal laws. Power plants account for about one-third of U.S. carbon releases.
Federal projections show North Carolina headed to an 18 percent drop in carbon emissions by 2020, compared with 2005, said Jonas Monast, director of the climate and energy program at Duke University's Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions.
"North Carolina is going to see continued growth in renewable energy, energy efficiency and natural gas," Monast said. "The plan gives North Carolina the flexibility to take credit for all those trends that are going to take place anyway."
As part of that mix, Monast said, newer coal-fired plants with up-to-date pollution controls should be able to continue operating.
Pushback expected
Duke says its carbon emissions are nearly 20 percent lower than in 2005. It's spent $7.5 billion to update its coal fleet.
"We plan to participate in the rule-making process," Duke spokesman Chad Eaton said of the EPA proposal.
The trade association for electric utilities, the Edison Electric Institute, said the "EPA appears to have allowed for a range of compliance options to reflect the diversity of approaches that states and electric utilities have undertaken and may undertake to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Flexible compliance is necessary to maintain a diverse portfolio of generating sources."
Rep. Pricey Harrison, a Greensboro Democrat and green-energy advocate, said political wrangling could erupt over the state's carbon plan.
"I think we're going to see some resistance from the climate change deniers, but I don't think they represent a majority of the legislature," she said.
Donald van der Vaart, energy policy adviser for the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources, challenged the proposed rule in testimony before a congressional committee last November.
Van der Vaart questioned whether EPA had proposed the rule under the correct section of the Clean Air Act. He testified that carbon-capture technology for power plants was not proven, and said states, not the federal agency, have authority to develop air pollution control programs.
"One of our chief concerns is not getting too far down the road and having its legality challenged," as happened with past federal rules, said Drew Elliot, the department's communications director. "We've seen this movie before, and we don't to be expending resources for what may be a futile effort."
After brief discussions with EPA, state officials said Monday they're still uncertain of crucial details such as what baseline year the carbon targets will be measured against. Depending on that year, the state might or might not get credit for renewable-energy development or pollution reductions.
The state plan is expected to be developed by the rule-making Environmental Management Commission, an appointed board, but legislators get final say over new rules.

Pimped-out toilet invites 'crappy idea' jokes
In a move straight out of Home Improvement, a plumbing company has designed a totally "pimped out" toilet. It comes complete with PlayStation, DVD player, and even a beer tap. It looks like there's a laptop stand there as well, so you can sit there while you do your business, playing Final Fantasy XII while you have a GameFAQs.com walkthrough up on your laptop and a beer in your hand. Cool?
While this is a fun idea, do you really want to spend that much time sitting on the crapper? I mean, sitting on the toilet isn't exactly as comfortable as sitting on a couch, so there's no real reason to move your base of tech-related operations into the bathroom. But hey, I guess someone out there will want this.

fantastic value
Designer from New York– Verified Buyer– Top 500 Reviewer
This is a great value dutch oven for use with a glass cooktop - nice heavy base and a very useful size
Marleen from Lake of the Ozarks, MO– Verified Buyer
I was skeptical about ordering this because it was more reasonably priced than many other brands. I have some All-Clad pieces, and this looked very much the same. I took a chance, and I am very glad I did. I will be ordering more pieces and getting rid of my Calphalon non stick which has not held up at all. It's heavy and cleans very nicely.
Great Dutch Oen
Chef Ro from Ashland, MA– Verified Buyer
I cook everything from soups to stews, spaghetti and meatballs. tomato sauce, chili. This Cusinox Elite Stainless Steel Dutch Oven replaced a Faberware 6 Qt Dutch Oven that I've used for 45 years and finally was pitted with constant use.
Great purchase.

Been reloading 40 s&w for a few month now. Last time I went to range I noticed that the slide wasn't closing correctly because of the bulge in the bottom of the case. I bought the redding sizing die that is suppose to correct this. Ran 100 cases through this, reloaded them, put one in a mag and racked the slide and now it's completed jammed and will not budge! I literally cannot get the round out cuz nothing will move. Anybody make a dumb of a mistake as me? How do
U fix it? And y is it still doing this?! Thanks guys

Honestly, I'd find a Glock armorer that's close to you, and have him deal with it.
I'd also make damn certain that your using everything correctly when doing your own reloads. Either you aren't, or you don't have the correct casings (or other parts). For this, I would seek out another that reloads for the same model you use.
On a side note, got a pic of it in it's current state?
Insert witty comment here......

Go to Hobby Lobby, get a wooded dowel, and knock the cartridge back out. Gently of course.
Is there a live round in the chamber? Is it in full battery?

I was taught to respect my elders but they are getting harder to find.
If the slide is forward and will not pull back, you might have to pry the extractor away from the cartridge to move the slide. Then gently knock the cartridge back out of the chamber.
Thanks for the replies. It was live. I managed to get it racked back my turning it upside down n jiggling it. I went they my whole reloading process again n discovered the bullet seater/crimping die was not working by turning it only by another 1/4 turn after it touches the case. I set the seating portion of the die all the way up and kept pushing the crimping die further down on the round and tested it in my barrel alone (which I should done the first time) until I had the round going in smoothly..that was nerve racking...
Well there's your problem, crimping and seating should not be done in the same die. Should be two separate operations.
I will start using a different die now. Guess its part of the learning process. Y would they sell a 2 in 1 die if it's not suppose to be used?
Put the gun in the freezer over night and try it again.
