Sooooo excited!!!!!
After renting a bunch of different guns finally settled on the S&W M&P 9mm compact. Felt good in my hand and shot well with the rental, also felt the size was a good middle ground between something I could carry and was still fun to shoot.
Only gun that I shot that I liked better was the S&W 1911, but it was out of my price range (wanted to stay in the $500 range), but am planning on saving for that to be my next purchase.

Sweet, thats a great firearm man!
Nut up or Shut up!
AWESOME!!! That's a fine weapon you have there my friend. Take care of it and it will take care of you. I bought a Kimber 1911 a few months ago and I'm warming up to it, they have that effect.
If the pain is lacking so is the discipline...
"the only 911 call I need is chambering a round" - Mr. Muller, MO car dealer
That's a good looking pistol.
I know, you're waiting for the punchline.
Really, that's a good looking pistol!
Great looking pistol. Can't wait for the range report. We are getting a range report aren't we?
Going on Friday to the range......that feels like an eternity from now
Any suggestions on holsters?
What type of carry?
For IWB, check out crossbreed holsters.
Sweeeeeet! I want one!
In order to become the Master, a politician must act as a servant.
M&P's are great pistols, reliable, accurate, easy maintenance.
I know first hand, I own a M&P .40c and carry it daily.
Your 9c has a thumb safety, I beginning to see that more on the M&P's.
Mine is an older model; no safety at all.

Electric Vehicle Drive Motors - Electric Traction Motors For Hybrid, Plug-In Hybrid, And Battery Electric Light Duty Vehicles: Market Analysis And Forecasts
NEW YORK, March 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Electric Vehicle Drive Motors - Electric Traction Motors for Hybrid, Plug-In Hybrid, and Battery Electric Light Duty Vehicles: Market Analysis and Forecasts http://www.reportlinker.com/p01154133/Electric-Vehicle-Drive-Motors---Electric-Traction-Motors-for-Hybrid-Plug-In-Hybrid-and-Battery-Electric-Light-Duty-Vehicles-Market-Analysis-and-Forecasts.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=Clean_Vehicle
As global automotive manufacturers increase their efforts to produce more vehicles using all-electric and electric-assisted drivetrains, interest in electric vehicle batteries continues to grow. The other major components of the electric powertrain, the motor and its controller, are equally important, however. While the battery pack is by far the most expensive piece of the technology, the motor represents a significant cost, and most automakers have chosen to make their own rather than purchase from a specialist supplier.
Although numerous new companies have sprung up to develop interesting AC motor alternatives that could disrupt the industry in future, almost all of the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have chosen to invest in producing their own motor hardware and are relying on permanent magnet or AC induction motor designs. It is important to recognize that motor choice cannot be made in isolation, and that the contribution of the controller and associated power electronics must be included. Navigant Research forecasts that the global market for electric drive motors in light-duty vehicles will grow from a little less than $1 billion in annual revenue in 2013 to more than $2.8 billion in 2020.This Navigant Research report provides a detailed examination of the growing market for electric motors and controllers, including profiles of the leading motor manufacturers and the original equipment manufacturers that make their own motors. Forecasts for revenues from motors and controllers segmented by motor power rating extend through 2020, and a summary of hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and battery electric vehicle model introductions by region is also provided. The report also includes a review of the main electric motor technologies suitable for electric drive.

Looking for information on my grandfather's family. Zephyr Daoust lived in Bay City, Michigan. Married Ellen Jane Brisbois probably around 1900. I believe his family was from Canada. He had brothers Adolphous and Ernest that lived in Detroit as adults. Zephyr worked on the "boats" on the Great Lakes.

You seduce her by dancing and she brings you into the office to give you a blowjob. She tells Maurice, a bouncer, not to let anyone in. Her boyfriend and manager of Bahama Mama's, Val, marches into the office and finds her under the table with Luis sitting in his chair. He punches Monique and pulls a gun on Luis.

A:Places that get lots of rain—like tropical countries covered in rainforest—generally have raging rivers. Go figure. But most travelers to these places are too busy lubing up with sunscreen at the beach to notice or care. The advantage to rafting in the rainforest is that it's generally a lot warmer than the Snake or Colorado. Plus, the monkeys swinging in the canopy above you make for great pictures.

The Lab
Temple Of Darts
> noel411 Collection
View Full Version :
noel411 Collection
Just thought I'd throw a few of my writtens in a thread.
Put the mic in position, strike with precision,
The blade stays sharp for slicing incisions,
A master of arts, a grasper of hearts,
A highly respected caster of darts,
Word travels fast and facts become myths,
Calluses grow on the hands he strums with,
The barriers he builds are only superficial,
The carrier of guilt is in a lonely loop of rituals,
Telltale signs of his work begin to emerge,
Identity stays hidden but is always on the verge-
Of public recognition as missions are effected,
Its given that witnesses admissions are rejected,
Visions are neglected, decisions have been finalized,
Choose to break communication of the mind and eyes,
And find these lies wont serve to crush a legend,
The truth can still be heard when nothings mentioned,
Is there rust in these joints? This must be the point-
In question when testing the trust we appoint,
Time brings change to your assigned swing range,
My oh my, this rhyme things strange,
The other half is lost with a lack of concentration,
We dont need a witness to enact the consecration,
Practice sacred arts regardless of surroundings,
Finely tune our weapons and the cases that theyre found in,
It might be sight or sound, but youll know when youre around him,
At night he might be found in the sorrows that youre drowning,
The impression cast by a true master should be lasting,
We can learn by his actions, even faster could we ask him-
To impart his wisdom and be granted this request,
He may hand you a seed, how its planted is the test,
To control the spot the goal is not to be the best,
Whether old or not the soul may rot, even as we rest,
Plan out the yield and stand out in the field,
Dont be concerned when a mans doubts revealed,
Practice your art to hack this apart,
Dont be afraid to go back to the start,
One in a million is far from unique,
You stray further away the harder you seek,
Think they praise what you say but they laugh when you speak,
You see what you need but your grasp is too weak,
Its a process where progress is only achievable,
If youre clever and endeavour to never believe a fool,
Keep your plans tethered together whether conceivable-
Or not, youve got to see, spot and be the rule,
See a jewel for a jewel and a lie for a lie,
See a fool for a fool and the wise for the wise,
Its a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye,
Its the truth in the booth, its the size of the prize,
At the end of the day it depends what we say,
A brew of the truth, or a blend of cliché?
Who rose in the force when imposing a war,
And who was left standing when closing the door?,
The parallels revealed through the hands of a writer,
A carousel of real views planned and deciphered,
One vivid picture that is broken up in quarters,
Its wealth revealed over time like a frozen cup of water,
Outside sources are abandoned as we reach the later stages,
The inner core explored, no more commentator pages,
Written through the hands of those who came before us,
The dictionaries varied but we chose the same thesaurus,
As the path narrows theres only space for one,
Solitude may be embraced but its a lonely chase for some,
The goal for which you strive wont be presented on a platter,
But once it is achieved it will no longer matter.
Light shines in dark places, words emerge from drains in gutters,
They turn to bats and flutter as the people close their shutters,
A man gets caught and tries to scream but only stutters,
He dies behind a sputter of the cries he tries to utter,
Take a tour through the sewers that run beneath the city,
A shitty fetid wasteland, disgraced and full of pity,
Pools of gritty waste have their place and serve a purpose,
Theyre a home to the creatures that lurk beneath the surface,
The lethal teeth of serpents provide a service which is certain-
To assure a dose of hurtin before they close the curtains,
Squirtin venom from the tips, it drips into the sludge,
And theres no legislature cause nature is the judge,
An owl sits on its perch by the light of the moon,
A withered tree near a church is where it sits and croons,
Theres a well nearby, this well is near dry,
Through teary eyes a boy stares at the clear sky,
His home is the darkness, the damp and slimy brick,
At night he lays his back on a cramped and grimy slick,
Rats claws prick at his skin like a cactus,
Their eyes glow red through the thick of the blackness,
Theyve become his only friends in this glum and lonely den,
Blood drips from his fingers raw, numb and boney ends,
As he tries to climb the brick and he finds the grime is thick,
His grip quickly slips, he dies with one final kick,
A submarine lurks in the depths of the ocean,
And theres no radar that will register its motion,
The occupants all died way back in the seventies,
But remained on the vessel cause they werent given heavens keys,
Eventually their energies were focused on their enemies,
They were never seen by any team whose vessel would descend the seas,
Struggling mentally their enemies would tend to flee defensively,
You can sense the grief when they speak, remembering these times, pensively,
Hence the brief pause after four more exhausted,
As we remember those who fought in these wars, and those who caused it,
Enforced it, endorsed it, killed and stayed remorseless,
The thoughtless savage forces, slaughtered soldiers and their horses,
Down in the deepest dark depths of the ocean,
An alien community have placed their devotion,
In developing their base and continuing research,
On the inhabitants of earth, avoiding becoming besmirched,
An immense metal dome conceals their activities,
They leave the fortress in saucers and come back with a seized-
Human being, who is then used in their experiments,
They answer many questions but they never give them evidence,
Malevolence is never sensed by those within their presence,
Their benevolence is evident, inherent in their essence,
Their lessons are a blessing to the few they use for testing,
They use these sessions for addressing many interesting questions,
Under brilliant white lights examinations are conducted,
Then structured files and dossiers are punctually constructed,
Which function in conjunction with a confidential covenant,
These instructions come from national and continental governments.
Before you even entered you could sense the hostility,
A drawing force was present and hence the possibility-
Of willingly proceeding was greatly enhanced,
All those who chose to advance were almost entranced,
A path is mostly hidden amongst weeds and bushes,
Only painted in streaks where the moonlight pushes-
Through overhanging branches which twist and intertwine,
And are clouded and shrouded in mist in winter time,
This narrow path ends at a small set of worn stairs,
Which are every bit as shabby as the worn and torn chair-
Which furnishes a balcony that shudders under foot,
With an uncertainty similar to what roaring thunder puts-
In the mind of a child at the height of a storm,
Where both a sense of fascination and fright often form,
A door stands open and reveals a flickering light,
A man might stand in a trance as shadows dance in the night,
As you step inside, on the left is a staircase,
Spotted in blood, and at the foot of which there lays-
A blood doused knife a housewife might use for chopping,
A trail continues to a doorway on the right without stopping,
And follows through a gloomy room, ending at a fireplace,
Where a young mans body lays with a terrified and tired face,
A sooty fire poker is protruding from his throat,
Blood leaks from his mouth and trickles down to his coat,
The ticking of the heart quickens, stricken by this sickening sight,
Now back to the staircase, passing by the flickering light-
Of a candle on a table sitting to the doors right,
The flame suspended like a kite, but a little more bright,
Halfway up the stairs the blood trail ceases,
At the top glass is scattered on the floor in pieces,
Theres a cabinet on the wall where the door has been shattered,
And a closet in a bedroom where the door is in tatters,
Theres a shotgun on the floor amongst traces of the door,
And the girl in the corner has no face anymore,
Just a wide, gaping hole that gets lost in the darkness,
A teddy bear glares from the hands of the carcass,
Leaving this room now, theres light down the hall,
Shadows abound and crawl right around the walls,
At the end theres a bedroom where a candle is burning,
A bottle of scotch has been emptied before overturning,
Lustful letters of love litter a bed in the corner,
To a woman named Mel, from a Frederick Warner,
Now its back downstairs and then down another hall,
To the kitchen, where we witness an unfaithful mothers fall,
A spilled pot is on the floor, the stove is still lighted,
It reveals the peeling face of a woman, which is bright red,
Matching the colours of her naturally white threads,
As blood leaks from multiple stab wounds and spreads,
From the first body another blood trail commences,
Ending at a door, the body tenses as it senses-
The likely possibility of whats on the other side,
Indeed it leads to a basement, the place where another died,
A lantern stands on a table and enables us to witness-
What became of the final victim of his own hit list,
His body hangs from a rope which scratches at his throat,
Fluids drip from blood soaked patches on his coat,
A shiny puddle forms just below his dangling feet,
And resting next to this is an overturned seat,
Piecing it together, you might start to see the order-
In events that took place in this crooked case of slaughter,
Which saw the demise of mother, father, son and daughter,
Memories cant be washed away even with a tonne of water,
This all took place many long years passed,
But every time I return its the same as the last,
Cause Im Frederick Warner and I was Mels lover,
And the guilt always finds me no matter how well I cover,
I can never escape it, though so many ways I try,
Ill be trapped in that house until the day I die.
No matter where youre coming from, life is never easy,
From the seedy camps where the poor and needy refugees be,
To the rich and scenic suburbs where life appears breezy,
Back to the sleazy slums where most incomes are measly,
Disease free streets with people walking bare feet,
To run down neighbourhoods where it is a rare treat,
To share a street with not one single hooker or dealer,
Cause the residents find drugs when they look for a healer,
A tramp sets up camp just below the expansion,
While a million dollar actor paints the walls of his mansion,
In a sporadic pattern of chunky grey and thin red,
After wearing through the final strands of a thin thread,
A wealthy lawyer heads downtown after losing two-
Important cases, thoughts are racing, now hes choosing to-
Buy some smack of a pusher whose homeless daughters using too,
And the thugs are snoozing soundly once the drug abuse is through,
Around me Im seeing everybody getting by,
It surrounds me, Im being very dotty letting my-
Mind convince me that theyre all better of than me,
Theres an easy road to peace but nobodys coffins free,
And we often see the outer shell as adequate to function-
As a definitive portrayal for making judgements and assumptions,
Theres a man I know from work, always calm and full of charm,
At night he sits alone with a needle in his arm,
He implements with instruments to bring about self harm,
He wears gloves to cover scars and slashes in his palms,
Alarm bells ring, and they calm hells king,
But even he wont drink the water that this farms well brings,
Cause hes seen the way it tainted us and painted us with greed,
Which leads us to compete for all these things that we dont need,
And the size of your greed might be the size of your feed,
And the wise and the meek might rise while you bleed,
Theres a time and place for all of us, depends which voice is calling us,
At any rate it may dictate the fate which is befalling us,
And who you choose to hear will reflect your personality,
You can choose to lose your fear in a programmed burst of clarity,
See Ive had an easy ride through life in many ways,
But youd find Im struggling inside on almost any day,
When we say were ok, how often is it really true,
Would we change what we say if we knew we were nearly through?
In an attempt to get paid, Paul robbed a liquor store,
Though he drew his gun quick, the attendant had a quicker draw,
William made millions and invested them in stocks,
Now he works round the clock loading ships at the docks,
Jack sold crack, weed and smack, and all the others,
Till he had his eyes gouged out by a customers brother,
Bill lived to make a mill, and finally he did,
But during the chase he lost his wife and kid,
Though Marguerite seems sweet, she makes her money on the street,
They found her in a black jeep, murdered on the back seat,
Raquel went through hell before she got her dream promotion,
Then killed herself to finally end the stress and the commotion,
Peter is a wife beater, loves the rush of power,
For roughly half an hour he forgets that hes a coward,
Earl rapes girls so often now that its the norm,
Does it almost daily, only way he can perform,
Susie Porter beats her daughter like it doesnt even phase her,
Does it out of frustration that she dont know how to raise her,
Jan will sleep with any man who can maintain an erection,
To combat the disdain and pain of rejection,
Problems find people from all walks of life,
From the rich to the poor, we can all talk of strife,
A lot of us unconsciously contribute to the problems-
Of others tryna live free, and effectively we rob them-
Of their freedom and right to have an equal opportunity,
By hurting them we hurt ourselves, my people stop and you will see,
We feed the same fire that slowly chars our souls,
And the solutions are polluted cause the problems are the goals.
There are certain topics it always seems that Im assessing,
Control and separation are some themes that Im addressing,
In the context of religion, in which pigeons are inducted,
Theyre set free intermittently and return to be instructed,
Seeking comfort and guidance, they forgo independence,
And hiding doesnt change whats inside in the end, hence,
They go through their lives suppressing natural desires,
They hide away doubts to try to stay out of the fires-
Of hell, which they tell you is the final destination,
Of those who chose to oppose God, and test his patience,
They say that God created us in his own image,
But its us who have placed him in our own line of scrimmage,
Because we created him in the image of ourselves,
Just take a look at the faker books on our shelves,
Faker than fiction cause they take a depiction,
Which serves not as a breaker but a maker of friction,
Because they tell us whats before us is unequivocally true,
And any variation should be critically viewed,
The warped divine figures, with our traits created,
If human would be worthy of contempt, pity and hatred,
We took our own faults and flaws and made them Gods attributes,
Suggesting our family tree had been spoiled way back at the roots,
Angry and vengeful, jealous and demanding,
Judgemental and intolerant and rarely understanding,
He threatens you with punishment and harsh consequences,
If you dont show repentance for your sinful, wrong offences,
He requires that we worship him and flatter him with purity,
As if he needed somebody to calm his insecurities,
Thats the God they gave you, and you swallowed it and still do,
And its not too late to save you, but youve gotta have the will to-
Admit that somethings wrong, as this earthly war blazes,
Accept that your God is not worthy of your praises,
Why should an omnipotent figure require anything from us?
Its one thing you know is suss, its something you wont discuss,
Just trust your religions which have failed us through the centuries,
I know its hard to adjust but you must let go eventually,
Religion brings division, competition and control,
Now envision a decision for revision of our old-
Principals and practices, teachings and beliefs,
Abandon what has failed us and start preaching bout the chief-
Flaws in understanding which impede world peace and unity,
But thats not reality, never was and isnt soon to be,
Because you and me belong to an obdurate race of beings,
And thinking will always outweigh hearing and seeing,
We sleep in a prison but we keep tradition strong,
Wed rather stay behind bars than admit that we were wrong,
And while opposing faiths try to claim their domination,
Within religions there are sects and denominations,
Each one claims superiority over all the others,
Blind to the fact theyre as absurd as one another,
Why do we cater to this nature of separation,
When it breeds conflict and non-descript acts of trepidation?
And war and terrorism are the least of our concerns,
Because humanity will burn until everybody learns,
That no man on earth, from the past through to the present,
From preacher to prophet, from murderer to peasant,
Can assume to know any more than you about such things-
As God and the afterlife and what your death will bring,
The worst mistake humans made was to let it ring true,
That there exists a God who requires anything from you,
We live in unfounded guilt and fear, for acting out desires,
Feel inadequate cause we cant obey the rules like God requires,
And this false sense of moralitys gone beyond religious culture,
It preys on the population like an insatiable vulture,
From the moment that youre born they teach you bout their right and wrong,
And theres no way but to obey them so one day you might belong,
But right and wrong are concepts which are relative, so really,
Its ideally up to you to define their meaning clearly,
Our whole moral system is derived from our religions,
It affects how governments and courts, even parents, make decisions,
And religions take morality so far beyond absurd,
They dictate how you ought to eat and dress and not say certain words,
Youve got women who wear veils that cover every inch of flesh,
Some even hide their eyes behind a fine kind of mesh,
Pray to their God five times a day to satisfy his ego,
We see these practices enacted this often now that we show-
No appreciation for how ludicrous this is,
What kind of a messiah would require that we kiss his-
Arse repeatedly, and also ask that we agree-
To follow certain rules and carry out the tasks that he-
Sets as a test of our faith and dedication,
And these dangerous moral principals have even led our nations,
Why cant we see? our belief systems are the source of most our problems,
Why arent we free? cause these systems take our minds and rob them,
Of the freedom to operate independent of suggested-
Adoptive principals with which it constantly is tested,
If I could go back in time, heres what Id do for closure,
Id cut off the hands of Moses before he can compose the-
Ten commandments, or any other of his quotes,
Then Id cut Muhammads throat well before he ever wrote-
The quran, and darn I dont know about the bible,
Updated and revised so many times, dont know whos liable,
King James, Constantine or Shakespeare, it doesnt matter,
Rival religions like to raise this point, its all just pointless natter,
Because the history of the book really isnt all that relevant,
Lets talk of its benevolence, even moreso its malevolence,
Its whats in the book that matters, and not where it came from,
And the contents of these books have done more harm than an A-bomb,
But Christianitys the faith that really saves and frees us,
Cause we can do as we please and then put it all on Jesus,
And dont assume that Im an atheist because of what Im saying,
Atheisms like religion, just without worship and praying,
Cause it also makes assumptions about things that we cant know,
And pretends that things that are unknowable arent so,
Just like religion, now please understand,
Spirituality and religion dont go hand in hand,
Religion is an industry, a system of control,
Spirituality is the bond between God and the soul,
The concept of God did not originate in scriptures,
They just abused it and distorted it and painted hateful pictures,
So if you wanna question God, dont ask the minister for help,
Just look into the mirror and ask him for yourself.
Hes miserable and glum and invisible to some,
His skin is cool and numb, swimming in a pool of scum,
The hate starts to rise from where his heart lies,
The contempt in his eyes is no longer disguised,
But he never holds a gaze long enough to burn a hole-
In the soul of another as he struggles for control,
In his tension he senses the judging minds of others,
Hes smothered in a bind and cant find his mother,
If he takes you on a tour through the depths of his mind,
You might be surprised when observing what you find,
You abuse the gift of sight by acting like youre blind,
Thats the very reason why he shies away from your kind,
Frustrated by observations of human behaviour,
If he could articulate his thoughts hed be the new saviour,
He believes he holds the keys to a deeper understanding,
He just cant find the words to make people understand him,
Often he wonders exactly when things turned,
He was once flying high but then his wings burned,
He forever yearns to return to that past glory,
But is stern that he cant turn the course of his story,
It seems strange and deranged that although he dreams of change,
The plans he makes to break free will never be arranged,
Hes lost his motivation and his self belief,
The self deprecation robbed him like a thief,
He believes he knows himself inside and out,
But perceives that some things leave him in doubt,
Like why hes so critical of those he cares about the most,
How hell shrug them off and ignore them like theyre ghosts,
How he wont get close to almost anyone he knows,
How hell sow a seed of hate and watch it slowly grow,
All the while longing for the comfort of friendship,
As his pen drips from a tense grip, the end slips,
A man of infinite potential and limited credentials,
At times his anger is torrential, sometimes inhibited and gentle,
So many years of apathy, hes now sedate and numb too,
So many fears, a trap that hes created and succumbed to,
The years pass by and his peers ask why-
Wont he let the past die and give it one last try?
And he tells himself the same, but it doesnt help him change,
You can see him through the flames as they move into his range,
He sees a rich and boastful man, contempt and hate rises,
Its the struggling down and outers with whom he sympathises,
Hed just as soon kill a man, stand and curse his mother,
As hed reach out a helping hand and try to guide another,
He might be your brother, the guy who reads the nightly news,
He might be your friend, he might be me, he might be you,
Theres feelings we cant help revealing, this is a rule,
But others stay hidden deep inside invisible.
A Passionate artist pours his thoughts on a wall,
Sure before the wall is painted over or falls,
No more than a small handful of passers-by,
Will register his work on any level past their eyes,
Ask him why his capacity for self progression-
Is exhausted on his art rather than his profession,
His answer likely will exemplify artistic expression,
Whats the definition of a real MC?
According to Einstein its the square root of E,
Cause if E equals MC squared it must be,
That the square root of E then equals MC,
Empty inside, cant tempt me with bribes,
Cause the entry is wide for plenty of scribes,
Who went three to five, then sent free their pride,
Consequently they thrived, then spent Gs and died,
And this suspicious business is a vicious cycle,
MCs live ficticious lives behind the mic like George Michael,
Forged styles rule the industry, while fools spin these sinfully,
Push the boundaries of infinity in a vicinity within a week,
Skinning me alive as Im striving for composure,
Id turn to burning bridges if theres no alternative for closure,
If integrity is something you cant learn to give, its over,
A passionate rapper pours his thoughts on a track,
Knowing just as sure as a saws gonna hack,
That no more than a small handful of individuals,
Will ever hear the track, much less register the hidden jewels,
But he still puts in hours, meticulously crafting-
His darts cause in his heart his art is everlasting,
"A covering or cover" defines the word (w)rapper,
How much do you tailor what swims out your snapper?
Is rapping just a disguise for what lies inside?
Behind your thin pride, might find your skin hides-
A boring twin side which died in the spotlight,
Look me in the eyes and tell me Im not right,
And what might be unsightly still clears the shelves at light speed,
And the heights weve reached for will breach your drive to fight greed,
Our sight needs to be focused on things that have broke us,
Cause the future looks hopeless in the wings of these locusts,
Only few who make a lonely break will keep away,
Rejoin the group to swoop foundations other people layed,
Not knowing that the hollow benefits they reapll fade,
In a pool of the same, its a school full of shame,
The rules of the game are to pull fools by chains,
And Im guilty of swarming, and it fills me with mourning,
My skills need re-forming, and I will heed the warning,
Though in this case its too late, a new fate may await me,
But lately Ive just felt too lazy to break free.
The dark recess of his mind, not exposed to those outside,
He appears to be together, but down below the doubt hides,
Without pride he is nothing so he searches for success,
Yearns to be the best but is hurting from the stress,
It alerts him to the mess that was his troubled early years,
An unfortunate fate would create a world he fears,
He just wanted to fit in with the rich and prestigious,
But felt he was an outcast like a witch or a midget,
Though hed talk cocky and gloat, he walked a rocky road,
His true emotions were something that he rarely showed,
So much built up tension he was scared hed explode,
But this decay stayed at bay and was barely exposed,
He rose in status in the professional world,
Found himself a beautiful and respectable girl,
He knows it matters to her that he tries hard,
But deep down his wealth is a lie, a façade,
He tries his best to impress her but still feels inferior,
Hes like a shiny new Porsche with a battered interior,
Unable to focus, his career starts to slip,
At last his girl parts with his heart in a grip,
Now an abundance of disappearing cases occur,
The names are all female, and they all look like her,
Excercising power and control to cure his chagrin,
Using manipulative techniques to lure a catch in,
Few could compare to his guile, and fewer could match him,
He mapped out traps for the girls he was snatching,
Hed wear a plaster cast and ask for assistance,
To carry books to his car, parked not a far distance-
Away, hed say and they displayed little resistance,
He practiced this tactic in more than one instance,
Remains were eventually found in the form of scattered bones,
The most notable of which were some worn and battered domes,
The zone full of bones, torn, shattered and thrown,
Rookie cops were warned to leave the matter alone,
Cause even vets were left with more questions than answers,
And the best had stress that festered like cancer,
The chance to bring the man to justice finally came late-
One night when they pulled over car with the same traits,
As the one described by many young ladies,
Who had been approached by a man in a cast who seemed shady,
The officer removed what he described as a rape kit-
From the car, put it into a bag and then taped it,
The kit included a balaclava and handcuffs,
As evidence in court items likely to stand up,
The case built against him was to demand tough-
Defense, and hes tense cause hes sensed that the cans rough,
Only hes man enough to handle the case,
His complacency shows when he stands in the place,
Of his own defense, representing himself,
With access to the books on the law librarys shelves,
The case was based on the testimony of one-
Girl who had escaped a murder/rape and then run,
Hes convicted but only for kidnap and assault,
And continues studying texts from the library vault,
While sentencing is temporarily brought to a halt,
Hes doing more than just learning, and when this is clear,
He jumps from a window and then disappears,
But his ankle's hurt in the fall so he never strolls far,
And is picked up as the driver of an out of control car,
His cold heart so fatigued he gives very little fight,
And in his new cell he lives with very little light,
But he still sits at night writing letters to his army-
Of fans, who stand by his side denying calmly,
That this man could plan or conspire to harm me,
They see him above them, looking down as his palms bleed,
The light in his room was dim for a reason,
You might think this gloom was to simply displease him,
The fixture was damaged and they were delaying repairs,
And left a metal plate which slowly he tears,
From the ceiling revealing a narrow escape route,
People joking about how hell soon get the cape out,
Compared to Houdini, this time hes able to get far,
This carefully planned new scheme has enabled a head start,
The form left under the sheets of his bed sparks-
Little suspicion, so that night his cell is left dark,
They find out the next day, but by then its too late,
Cause hes well on his way, and hes crossed many states,
But soon the old urges come back to haunt him,
And this is where the story becomes the most daunting,
Taunting the cops with unspeakable acts,
Unable to stop his most lethal attack,
Creeps through the back door of a boarding house,
As quiet and discreet on his feet as a mouse,
A piece of firewood was his weapon that night,
So quiet the girls couldnt put up a fight,
Clubbed them right on the head while they still slept,
When he left, two dead was the tally he kept,
Crept out the front door as a girl entered the rear,
Stepped in the shadows and remained centered with fear,
When the cops arrive its five hysterical girls who greet them,
Inside they find two girls dead and two beaten,
Weakened by the sight, but the nights only just started,
Cause the lust had not been hushed when he parted,
To crush that lust is a must for the heartless,
Theyll trust their gut till theyve had enough, regardless,
He needs to flush that lust right out of his system,
So he finds another house with more potential victims,
He's in a rush so he hasn't got much time to pick them,
And no time for the fancy schemes he used to trick them,
Spots a girl through a window who doesn't know doom awaits,
And proceeds to bludgeon, with blows to the face,
But all of this commotion arose her room mates,
Who called the cops who arrived not a moment too late,
Though at first glance they can't believe she'd survived,
They're soon surprised to find her breathing and alive,
The perpetrator steals a van from nearby,
Which he uses to commit his last severe crime,
He steers by a school with drool on his lips,
Spots a kid who resists, so he pulls on her hips,
To drag her inside the high and wide vehicle,
Her cries dry and fearful, her eyes wide and tearful,
Shed be his youngest known victim, and also his final,
The van was abandoned with blood on the vinyl,
And replaced with a Beetle with shiny black seats,
Which a cop spots crawling along the back streets,
It provokes his suspicion, so he calls it in,
And meanwhile pulls the man over, stalling him,
The results come back, the car was recently reported-
Stolen, but the initial arrest attempt is thwarted,
When he shakes the Jake and makes a break while being escorted-
To the back seat of the patrol car, the cop fires shots in the air,
The assailant promptly stops, and drops right there,
But when the cop tries to cuff him, another fight flares,
The nightmare finally over when the stunned cop prevails,
The assailant wishing he was dead as another scheme fails,
Theyre not sure whove theyve caught as hes brought to the jail,
And are shocked when they finally learn all the details,
He fails to make a confession in that questioning session,
Gives vague answers to keep them guessing and test them,
He rejected numerous public defendants,
So again on him his defense was dependent,
If convicted it was likely that death was the sentence,
He committed his crimes in a state which supports the-
Death penalty, and so the hordes thought he-
Must wanna die, and would fry accordingly,
In this trial there was a pile of evidence,
Though the defendant stays calm and is almost never tense,
The most important exhibit came from a dental surgeon,
In the form of X-ray and photo and the way that they merged in-
When layed on top of one another, you could see a clear blend,
The photo showed bite marks on a victims rear end,
The dental scan was of the defendant, now down in the stands,
There is commotion as they disclose what was found in the van.
In the back there was dirt which had traces of blood,
Also red clothing fibers were placed in the mud,
Which matched a garment his last victim was wearing,
On the day she died, it was clear when comparing,
The blood types matched both defendant and victim,
There was now enough evidence to get a conviction,
The jury returned with the verdict, ordering death,
The defendant showed no distress, no shortage of breath,
An execution date was set, but repeatedly delayed,
Appeals were launched but denied, no matter what hed say,
He was staunch and he tried, but the judge could not be swayed,
He was at peace with his priest, found release when he prayed,
The days turned to months and he finally came to grips,
With the fact theyve got him trapped and theyre not gonna flip,
At last he starts confessing, speaking with deep hurt,
Begging they preserve him for psychological research,
He turns to desperation as death is closing in,
Finally accepting the reality that death has chosen him,
Blaming pornography, and violent forms of entertainment-
For his violent sexual slayings, was simply so the blame went-
To sources other than himself, never losing his pride,
Concealing his true feelings and choosing to hide,
When the day came for his meeting with the chair,
It revealed his fear of dying, he was crying with despair,
He sent love to his family while the frying was prepared,
By an executioner whose mask was hiding tied up hair,
Which when released would reach at least to her shoulders,
It was a woman at the switch holding it as controller,
Volts whipped through his body as she lowered the switch,
Avenging the deaths of all the girls he had murdered and ditched,
In parks and rivers, some never to be found,
Their carcasses hidden, some buried underground,
The few who had died in their homes, received proper farewells,
Those who were slayed so sadistically, he never dared tell-
The location of the bodies, now probably so decomposed,
That the horrors they endured remain something only he knows,
That he will take to his grave or maybe burn with his body,
This song speaks of a release that turned to a hobby,
And the biggest tragedy is that this story is true,
And though it doesnt involve me, and nor does it you,
Were all victims of a flawed and misguided society,
But this depiction is more than you allow your eyes to see.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
I'm dead meat: Please save my bacon
Impending shortage has me salivating
The most moving greeting card I have ever received featured a cute but sad little mouse who appeared to be running away from home because he had all his worldly possessions stuffed into a tiny sack slung hobo-style over his back.
Inside the card, the caption read: "I don't want to live in a world without love!"
As deeply moving as that was, it is safe to say guys like me would become even more emotional if the little mouse on the card had delicious strips of thinly sliced, salted pork draped lovingly over his tiny shoulders.
Naturally, the caption would read: "I don't want to live in a world without bacon!"
But this morning, as difficult as it is for me to say, we are forced to consider that terrifying possibility -- a world without enough bacon to go around.
I became aware of this crispy crisis the other day when I received countless emails (there were six) from concerned guys with subject lines reading, in ominous capital letters: "STOP THE PRESSES!" and "OH! MY! GOD!"
These emails contained copies of an alarming news story from The Canadian Press (I recommend you sit down before reading on) from London, England, that began as follows: "A British farming organization is predicting a worldwide shortage of bacon and pork next year."
The story stated what most Manitobans already know -- pig farmers around the world are considering selling their herds because of soaring feed prices and a drop in market prices. In Canada, while bacon is not expected to vanish from shelves entirely, there are dire warnings of dramatic price hikes within four to six months.
My male colleagues wasted little time in making me aware of this dire situation because, as much as I hate to brag, I am renowned as this nation's most steadfast defender of all things bacon. I am bacon's champion, if you will.
If, unlike myself, you are not wringing your hands and gnashing your teeth over the prospects of a looming bacon shortage, I am going to assume you are what we bacon lovers refer to as "a woman."
In the world of culinary delights, there are few more divisive foodstuffs than bacon. For instance, reactions to the current bacon crisis are split among gender lines as follows:
Typical male reaction (sound of salty tears falling): "NOOOOOOO!!!"
Typical female reaction: "Man up, Buttercup! There's always turkey bacon!"
Yes, you read that correctly. Based on a survey of my wife, I have determined that women consider turkey bacon an acceptable substitute for (WARNING: capital letters ahead) THE REAL THING! Let me state, for the record: Turkey bacon is NOT bacon. It should not be allowed in the same province, let alone frying pan, as real bacon.
And while we're on the topic, I'd like to point out that carob is not chocolate, leisure suits are not (bad word) suits and light beer is not (extremely bad word) beer.
Thanks for listening.
Getting back to my point -- and I do have one -- the time has come to stand up for bacon. I know I am doing my part. My office cubicle, for example, is decorated with a bacon-scented air freshener and a bookmark camouflaged as a strip of bacon. As I write these words, I am eating (this is the unvarnished truth) bacon-flavoured jelly beans from a can painted to resemble a strip of bacon. In my kitchen pantry, there's a shaker of bacon salt and a jar of Baconnaise.
In recent years, as a crusading journalist, I have written countless columns professing my love of bacon and describing a host of bacon-y inventions, including: Bacon lip balm; Baconlube, the world's first bacon-flavoured massage oil and personal lubricant marketed as the "McRib of Sex"; and, most recently, the Bacon Coffin, a $2,999.95, 220-pound, 18-gauge steel casket painted "with a bacon and pork shading" to ensure the dearly departed can spend eternity wrapped in the loving arms of bacon.
Despite my courageous journalistic stand, I have yet to be awarded even one Pulitzer Prize. Conspiracy? I can't say. What I can say, however, is that the time has come to show bacon how much you love it. Embrace your local pork producer. Ignore the entire alphabet except for the letters BLT. Spread the love, people.
Speaking of love, consider this: In a recent survey of 1,006 randomly selected adults, 43 per cent of Canadians (including 42 per cent of women) said they love bacon more than sex, and nearly one in four Manitobans (23 per cent) has wondered if "my partner loves bacon more than me."
Numbers do not lie, people. As a wise man once told me: Sex may be a wonderful thing, but you can have bacon more than once a day.

Courier+maildrop are not updating maildirsize
It seems that the file /home/vmail/domain/user/maildirsize is not being updated with the new quota size when the quota is changed by ISPConfig. The hack that seems to fix it is to run the commands:
maildirmake -q {quota}S /home/vmail/domain/user/
chown vmail:vmail /home/vmail/domain/user/maildirsize
right after the quota is changed. I don't know where to add this hack to ISPConfig to fix the bug, if this is even the right hack to do it.

I want to service a nexus 3 hub and have to tried to read everything I can. Here are my questions
It seems that once disassembled the internals are degreaser and allowed to then dry. Where I am uncertain is the next steps. Am I correct in saying "standard practice" is to then do the "oil soak"? Or is that generally only for oil bathed internals like the alfine 11 but not for grease based hubs like the Nexus 3?
I don't think I have seen anything recently as to alternatives to the Shimano Blue Oil dip bath? I know some say best to use it but it is expensive and I tend to flip bikes so it is more than likely I will only do this once. Any current experience that is negative when you used something besides Shimano "Blue"?
Then what about the grease to "regrease"? I have seen comments in this forum that is seems to a lithium NLGI #2 grease. Any current experience or thoughts?

Travel Photos
You know how it is — you come back from vacation, get busy, and forget to arrange your travel photos — until maybe on a rainy, cold Saturday, months later. So now I'm finally doing it. I've shared some of these on Twitter, but so far not on the blog. Have fun. [Read More]
Replay: Greta Garbo Dies, 1990
Note: In 1989, I heard from a reliable source that Greta Garbo was in declining health. I knew that, when the time came, I'd be doing the obituary, but I didn't want to write the obituary ahead of time, feeling that it would be best to operate off the emotion of the moment. However, I [...] [Read More]
The MPAA and "Historical Smoking"
The MPAA has rated MONUMENTS MEN PG-13 for war violence and "historical smoking." Historical smoking? This is your MPAA at work. It won't protect children from the violent images and horribly violent situations that you find in big-money summer blockbusters. No, they all get a PG-13. But it will protect itself from getting criticized by [...] [Read More]
Philip Seymour Hoffman, a Day Later
Two thoughts about Philip Seymour Hoffman. I've been getting a lot of mail, and lots of people are saying that it was a horrible waste, and that he was an idiot to do what he did, etc. And it's difficult to disagree with that, except in this one crucial sense: You really don't get to [...] [Read More]
Philip Seymour Hoffman (1967-2014)
They say the graveyards are full of indispensable men, and yet it's hard not to see the death of Philip Seymour Hoffman as a disaster for motion pictures and for the art of screen acting. To look back on what this consummate American actor accomplished just in the last 15 years is to imagine what [...] [Read More]
The Long Lost David Mamet Interview, from 1994
Note: In November, 1994, I did a telephone interview with David Mamet. Fifteen minutes after I finished writing up the interview, the San Francisco Chronicle went on strike, and so the article never ran. I came across it last night and thought you might find it interesting. It's fairly long, by newspaper standards — especially [...] [Read More]

Replay: Jane Pauley Leaves the Today Show, October 27, 1989
I have never been an early riser. Left to my own devices, I'm almost never up before 8:30 and usually not before 9. But for some reason on October 27, 1989, I was up early enough to witness the above moment in television history, and I was livid. Jane Pauley was being let go from [...] [Read More]
50 Years Since 'Dr. Strangelove'
Every year — or most years — if we're lucky, it's every year — there's what I like to call The Thing That Happened in Cinema.

Nottingham beggar banned from selling Big Issue
A beggar has been given an anti-social behaviour order (Asbo) which bans him from selling the Big Issue magazine anywhere in England and Wales.
Darren Walker is among several beggars in Nottingham who have posed as official sellers, asking for money but then not handing over the magazine.
They often claim that they need to keep the magazine because it is their last copy.
The Big Issue said the scam damaged the reputations of genuine vendors.'It's killing us'
Matt Howse, a genuine Big Issue seller, said: "People are getting scammed basically and it's having a knock-on effect on the real vendors.
"It's just messing it up completely, really badly.
'I know it's cheeky'
Jeremy Ball, the BBC's social affairs correspondent for the East Midlands, spotted a man in Nottingham offering the Big Issue.
He was not wearing a badge or jacket and said Mr Ball could pay more than the £2.50 cover price if he was "feeling generous".
He then asked: "Do you want the magazine though, because it's my last one? Do you mind if I hang on to it? I know it's cheeky.
"I know I'm supposed to give you one, yeah, but it's the only one I've got."
He claimed he had lost his badge. He said he was not wearing a jacket as it had been hot and you have to pay a £15 deposit.
"Sales have just dropped, immensely, and it's just killing us."
Mr Walker has also been caught trying to pass-off cinema magazines and travel brochures as copies of the Big Issue.
His Asbo bars him from selling or trying to sell the Big Issue or any printed publication without authorisation from the providers, across all of England and Wales.
It lasts until 25 June 2015.
Flo Cameron, a community protection officer in Nottingham, said some rogue Big Issue vendors had been drunk and abusive to people, or under the influence of drugs.
Holly O'Connor, regional manager for the Big Issue, said: "It's giving us quite a bad name with certain members of the public in the city centre and it's just making things a lot harder for our genuine vendors.
"They should be wearing an in-date badge, they should be polite, they shouldn't be asking for spare change for a coffee or whatever.
"All they should be doing is selling the product, and handing over the magazine, and offering change to people."

We are excited to announce Carac Allison has joined the Exhibit A Posse of Literary Thugs. Signed from Ethan Ellenberg (Ethan Ellenberg Literary Agency) for one book (World English), Dark Digital Sky will be published in May, 2015.
Carac Allison: "I am thrilled to be working with the passionate professionals at Exhibit A to bring my LA Private Investigator Chalk to life in Dark Digital Sky."
Bryon Quertermous:"I'm so excited to be working with Carac who brings the cool pulpy spirit of my old PI idols into the next generation with some high tech gadgets and cases that address modern security and identity issues. Exhibit A readers are in for a treat when this book hits the streets."
Ethan Ellenberg: "I'm very excited to be celebrating the sale of Dark Digital Sky by Carac Allison to his new publisher partner Exhibit A. This is a compelling book by a debut author who is a master of suspense. We are looking forward to the start of a long, successful partnership."
Dark Digital Sky:
A gripping high-tech crime novel mixing the pulpy spirit of the past and the security threats of today
Chalk is an ex-FBI agent whose specializations are cults and computer forensics. The tools of his trade as a PI are a Porsche 911, an unregistered Glock, modified cellphones, radios, and an eclectic collection of computers. He suffers from bipolar disorder, lives alone and hopes, one day, to be able to see his son without the constraints placed on him by the courts.
Chalk's mission is simple: find three biological sons of one of Hollywood's sleazy successes whose origins lie in a sperm bank donation he made decades ago. Chalk finds all three, each as twisted as the father in very different ways. It seems his task is complete when Chalk discovers all three are being recruited by a demented General who is looting vast pharmaceutical warehouses and planning a major domestic terror attack.
As Chalk digs further into the brothers' plot, he uncovers a secret military weapons program embedded deep in the Hollywood special effects and technology industry. It will take every bit of techno savvy he has to strip away the illusions and the politics and find the real source of the threat.
About Carac: Carac started playing with PET and Tandy computers when he was a young teen. He learned to write on a Commodore 64 but he was never much of a programmer. When he finished his undergraduate degree, Carac started working for the University of Western Ontario as a low level clerk. He went on to found the Web and IT Team in Student Services and has directed projects on database security, electronic data interchange, mobile devices and distributed online identity. As a member of Western's Information Group on Security, the Risk Assessment team and an investigator in student hacking cases, he has seen the good, the bad and the ugly of the digital frontier.

Stanly County authorities say a 15-month investigation into illegal use of prescription narcotics has led to the arrest of 25 suspects.
The investigation, which began in mid April 2013, involved the Stanly County Sheriff's office, the SBI, Albemarle police, and law enforcement agencies from several surrounding counties, according to investigators.
Suspects ranged in age from 22 to 65 and came from Stanly, Anson, Montgomery and Union counties. In one case, investigators said, a suspect was accused of dealing drugs within 1,000 feet of a school.
The suspects face a total of 120 charges, with bonds ranging from $1,500 to $2.5 million. The arrests took place between April and July of this year, detectives said.

Really good! As suggested, I also skipped the parsley and added two big cloves of minced garlic which I sauteed in the butter before adding the other ingredients. I will be making this side dish often!
Had some bakery croutons in the freezer that got completely squished - perfect for this recipe. Not a lot to criticize or analyze on this one - prepared this exactly as written and would do so again. Loved it - took the lowly green being from boring and merely edible to interesting, elegant and delicious.
This recipe was a good way to change up green beans. My sister had seconds and she never eats green beans! I added minced garlic to the beans as they were boiling and skipped the parsley. Thanks for the recipe.

Recipe by Lucky Leaf
"Chopped pretzels and brown sugar make a perfect salty-sweet crust for these creamy layered cherry bars."
Watch video tips and tricks
2 (21 ounce) cans
LUCKY LEAF® Regular or Premium Cherry Pie Filling
3 cups
chopped pretzels
3/4 cup
brown sugar
1/4 cup
butter, melted
1 (8 ounce) package
cream cheese, softened
1 cup
powdered sugar
1 (8 ounce) container
frozen whipped dessert topping, thawed
This recipe is a winner! I've been searching for it for ages... it was a childhood favorite. And just a tip cause I bothered to measure... a 12oz. tub of cool whip is about 4 cups. YUM!!
I followed the recipe, but the pretzels were very soggy!! The flavor of the cherries and cream cheese were good.
16 Ratings
This was a big hit! Loved the pretzel bottom and the hint of salty with all the sweet. Supper simple dessert to throw together. Will definitely be making again!
Tried it with blueberry filling, very good.
This is very good...I took it to work and the girls really enjoyed it!
Try adding a little cinnamon to the crushed pretzels, which I did. Also put whipped topping on top of the cherry pie filling, and sprinkled a little more crushed pretzels.
I used fat free cream cheese and 1 8oz tub of Cool Whip Lite and 1 tub of Cool Whip Free. For crust, I reduced butter to 1 stick (1/2 cup) - worked fine. I mixed the confectioner's and cream cheese together first then blended in the Cool Whip. UPDATE: I would use 1 tsp of Almond extract with the whipped cream mixture. Mine was a bit flat on flavor. Next time I will cut the whipped cream amount in half (didn't care for the airy texture as written). Overall, a good tasting dessert.
will be trying it tonight if it turns out well ill let you know
