Potassium Hydrogen Phosphate is generally immediately available in most volumes. High purity, submicron and nanopowder forms may be considered. American Elements produces to many standard grades when applicable, including Mil Spec (military grade); ACS, Reagent and Technical Grade; Food, Agricultural and Pharmaceutical Grade; Optical Grade, USP and EP/BP (European Pharmacopoeia/British Pharmacopoeia) and follows applicable ASTM testing standards. Typical and custom packaging is available. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available as is a Reference Calculator for converting relevant units of measurement.
Potassium (atomic symbol: K, atomic number: 19) is a Block S, Group 1, Period 4 element with an atomic weight of 39.0983. The number of electrons in each of Potassium's shells is [2, 8, 8, 1] and its electron configuration is [Ar] 4s1. The potassium atom has a radius of 227.2 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 275 pm. Potassium was discovered and first isolated by Sir Humphrey Davy in 1807. Potassium is the seventh most abundant element on earth. It is one of the most reactive and electropositive of all metals and rapidly oxidizes. As with other alkali metals, potassium decomposes in water with the evolution of hydrogen; because of its reacts violently with water, it only occurs in nature in ionic salts. In its elemental form, potassium has a silvery gray metallic appearance, but its compounds (such as potassium hydroxide) are more frequently used in industrial and chemical applications. The origin of the element's name comes from the English word 'potash,' meaning pot ashes, and the Arabic word 'qali,' which means alkali. The symbol K originates from the Latin word 'kalium'. For more information on potassium, including properties, safety data, research, and American Elements' catalog of potassium products, visit the Potassium Information Center.
Phosphorus (atomic symbol: P, atomic number: 15) is a Block P, Group 15, Period 3 element. The number of electrons in each of Phosphorus's shells is 2, 8, 5 and its electronic configuration is [Ne] 3s2 3p3. The phosphorus atom has a radius of 110.5.pm and its Van der Waals radius is 180.pm. Phosphorus is a highly-reactive non-metallic element (sometimes considered a metalloid) with two primary allotropes, white phosphorus and red phosphorus; its black flaky appearance is similar to graphitic carbon. Compound forms of phosphorus include phosphates and phosphides. Phosphorous was first recognized as an element by Hennig Brand in 1669; its name (phosphorus mirabilis, or "bearer of light") was inspired from the brilliant glow emitted by its distillation. For more information on phosphorus, including properties, safety data, research, and American Elements' catalog of phosphorus products, visit the Phosphorus Information Center.

The actor's new projects take him behind the camera.
Will Smith is ready to step out of the spotlight and behind the camera for a pair of upcoming projects.
The A-list actor, who scored a hit with Men in Black 3 earlier this year, is developing a drama series called Epidemic with Hollywood scribe J. Michael Straczynski, whose credits include the hit cable series Babylon 5 and the big-budget films Thor, Underworld Awakening and Changeling.
On the big-screen front, Smith is also set to make his directorial debut with The Redemption of Cain, a Biblical epic about warring brothers Cain and Abel. Deadline.com reports that Smith will likely also star in the film, which is being produced by his own Overbrook Entertainment and Sony Pictures.
The Fresh Prince already has an illustrious producing resume, including producing credits on most of his films as well as the sitcom All of Us, which he co-created with his wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith. Through his production company, Overbrook Entertainment, Smith has also produced smaller films like The Secret Life of Bees, Lakeview Terrace and The Karate Kid, which launched the career of his son, Jaden Smith.

31 best Windows 8.1 apps of 2014
Downloading apps is a great way to get the most out of Microsoft's new OS. We've complied this 31 best Windows 8.1 apps of 2014 chart to help get you started.
Whether you've got your mitts on the Microsoft Surface or a 20in all-in-one, you'll want some pointers to the best Windows 8.1 apps.
That's where we come in. We've trawled a store that isn't the best at surfacing good content, and rounded up a selection of apps that you should download.
Best Windows 8.1 apps 2014
If you're working on several projects at once, and have a ton of things to remember to do on each one, then Wunderlist is a great To Do List app that's worth incorporating into your Windows 8.1 life.
Wunderlist works across all your Windows 8.1 devices - as well being available on Android and iOS - and is a very slick to do list, allowing you to create multiple categories/projects and then share them with friends/colleagues.
Apart from being very stylish – which is an achievement for a To Do List – it's very easy to use. This is partly due to its slick interface, but also because all of your tasks are synced to the Wunderlist server which allows for good continuity across all devices that you access the app from.(Free)
FL Studio Groove
Ever envied your iPad-owning friends' GarageBand compositions? Well now you can create music on your Windows tablet with FL Studio Groove. It's a miniature sequencer with a wealth of built-in synth and percussion sounds: program your melodies in the piano roll, or play live using the two-tier touch keyboard and drum pad interfaces.
In addition to recording and composition features, there's also a selection of production tools, including a library of high-quality effects and automation options. Best of all is the price: while professional audio production software can cost hundreds of pounds, FL Studio Groove turns your laptop or tablet into a portable production studio for just £5.99. (£5.99)
Great British Chefs
A forceful poke in the eye to anyone who says Windows 8 apps are unattractive, the Great British Chefs app looks as appetising as the dishes it will help you to cook. A compendium of recipes from culinary luminaries such as Marcus Wareing, Nathan Outlaw and Tom Aikens, the app provides a wide selection of dishes for cooks of all abilities. Once you've selected your chosen dish(es), the combined ingredients can be added to the shopping list, which are handily broken down by shopping aisle (i.e. meat, vegetables) and can be exported to email or Evernote.
When you get back from the shops, pop the recipe in Cooking Mode and you can swipe step-by-step through the instructions on your tablet, with a handy timer available on the side of the screen. With a series of interesting food articles, plus video guides to tricky jobs such as extracting the meat from a lobster, you really couldn't ask for any more from a free app. (Free)
A Microsoft Studios game that has migrated from Windows Phone 7, to Xbox Live, and now Windows 8.1, ilomilo+ is a delightful little timewaster that Windows tablets could desperately do with more of. The idea is to reunite ilo and milo - see what they've done there? - by navigating the 3D level they're trapped on opposite sides of. You alternate between controlling both characters, using one to open trapdoors or create paths for the other, until they're back together. It's clever, beautifully presented, but perhaps a little too prim for some tastes. A two-player mode adds longevity. (£3.49)
Navigating the morass of news, memes and endless discussion threads that comprise Reddit is no mean feat, but the Redditting client does a brilliant job of boiling it down. It effectively turns Reddit into an RSS reader, allowing you to browse your favourite subreddits, filter out sources or contributors you'd rather not hear from, and read the source article alongside the comments in split-screen. Once you've logged in or filled out the simple in-app registration, you can also vote posts up or down, add comments or submit links of your own. A setting that allows you to filter adult content could also make Reddit palatable at your place of work. (Free)
Halo: Spartan Assault
Halo is the Xbox's best-know game franchise, and its less graphically ambitious transition to tablets and smartphones is nonetheless a success. It has everything you associate with Halo: a variety of futuristic weaponry to choose from, vehicles to commandeer and an intelligence-free pack of comrades who repeatedly need you to dig them out of a firefight.
The top-down approach is unusual for Halo, but works well, as do the touchscreen controls. Attempting to fleece you for in-app purchases after paying a fiver for the game is a touch gratuitous, but they're not necessary. Try the Lite version first. (£4.99)
This free photo-editing app comes with a wealth of options packed into its simple interface. The Basic Edit category has tools to crop, resize and rotate images, and sliding scales can be used to change exposure value and colour temperatures. Other options include the sharpen and blur tools, which can be tweaked, and there are lens flare and shadow categories that contain dozens of options.
A broad selection of Instagram-style filters and frames are included, too, and pictures can be pulled from a variety of sources – from local folders to the SkyDrive. It's an extensive tool, but it's also possible to upgrade to Fhotoroom Pro for only 99p. The upgraded app includes additional filters, and it's also compatible with images larger than 4 megapixels in size. (Free, 99p Pro version available)
It's one of the most popular radio tools around, but it's taken its time arriving as a Windows 8 app. It has all the features you'd expect: hundreds of radio stations divided up by region, and many more categorised into dozens of genres. As on the website, sports and news stations are given their own sections, and it's also possible to filter the thousands of stations by language. TuneIn supports podcasts as well, with shows organised into similar genres. If you're a radio fan, this app is a must. (Free)
This multitasking tool is one of the cleverest apps we've seen in the Windows 8 Store. It includes a host of small utilities, from a calculator and converter to weather and clock tools, and it even has a basic web browser and social networking clients, with Facebook and Twitter supported.
That's not the clever bit, however. Swiping up from the bottom of the screen reveals a host of different layouts, with between two and six windows included on each. Different apps can run in each window, so it's great for multitasking, and Toolbox also includes six pre-set configurations. (Free)
News Bento
This is a great app for keeping tabs on multiple news sources – and it's totally customisable. Hundreds are available in six categories: News, Business, Tech, Photo & Design, Entertainment and Sports. A tap on a logo adds or removes a source from your feed, and News Bento also supports your own entries – it's as easy as adding a name, URL and optional logo. The browsing interface itself is top-notch, with Live tiles rotating with article pictures, and both light and dark themes available. (Free)
Nextgen Reader
Nextgen Reader is one of the few Windows 8 apps that's been designed with both desktop and tablet users in mind. By default, it looks like a rudimentary desktop feed reader, with your list of feeds running down the left-hand side of the screen and a reading pane to the right. Tap the app's logo in the top-left corner, however, and it flips into Modern View, with feed articles turned into the familiar Windows 8 tiles that are much easier to tap on and read on a tablet. The app requires a Google Reader account, and managing subscriptions requires an awkward trip back to the browser, but it's otherwise a smartly designed, fully featured reader. (£2.19, free trial available)
Games are the strongest suit in the Windows 8 Store, and Chimpact is an amusing little diversion, especially for tablet owners. The idea is to catapult your simian friend around the levels, collecting bananas, squishing caterpillars and avoiding foes. The game is part Angry Birds, part platformer, and works best on a tablet, where you can drag your finger across the screen to fire the little critter. Chimpact doesn't require much in the way of grey matter. In fact, it might be best deployed as a cheap back-seat diversion for your own little monkeys. (99p, free trial available)
Sim Trader
Ever thought you could make a killing on the stock market, but haven't had the cash or the nerve to prove it? Sim Trader is an inexpensive way to see if you have the magic touch. You're handed an imaginary $10,000, with which you can buy and sell shares with financial impunity, monitoring the progress of your portfolio and that of other players all from the single screen. The app is about as visually appealing as an Excel spreadsheet, and clicking on a news item throws you out of the app and back into the browser, which is a bit jarring. But it's a fun five-minute diversion each day. (Free)
Need one killer reason to buy a Windows Phone? Then meet Wordament, the horrendously addictive word game that you may well spend the rest of your life playing. The idea will be familiar to anyone who's played Boggle: from a 16-letter grid of letters, you have two minutes to form words using vertical, horizontal or diagonal moves. You compete against the rest of the world in real-time, with the biggest challenge being to break into the top ten in a given round – something no-one from the PC Pro team has managed to do. Yet. (Free)
Khan Academy
If you haven't heard of Khan Academy, it's a global not-for-profit organisation that aims to educate the world for free. The iPad app gives access to its library of over 3,200 teaching videos, covering all the branches of maths, the sciences (including its foray into computing, which is still in its early stages), history and even finance and economics. It also has a section for talks, similar to the TED app. The quality of the teaching varies by topic and teacher, but it's a free resource that's designed specifically to engage and explain rather than simply talk at students. (Free)
Encyclopaedia Britannica
There have been Britannica apps on iOS for a while, but it's the new Windows 8 app that stood out from a relatively meagre crowd in the Windows Store before launch. It's well designed, making full use of a large monitor to bring you detailed information, loads of images and other interactive elements, and a search for one topic quickly leads to several more. The bad news? Beyond the top 100 articles, you'll need to subscribe to view more, so don't go expecting the app to be a free way into this wealth of knowledge. (Free, then £10.99 to subscribe)
Although on other platforms we could have gone for LoveFilm Instant, the Netflix alternative is a lot better designed, and it's currently the only option on Windows 8. Categories drill down into subcategories with more creativity, and the scrollable cover-flow layout makes spotting your favourites much simpler. (From £5.99/mth)
Streaming your music and video to mobile devices is made easy by Plex, which works on a wide range of phones and tablets – including windows Phone handsets as of earlier this year. Set up the client on your home Windows or Linux PC, or Mac, and you'll be able to access its content on the move, as well as taking advantage of a wide range of internet channels. Just watch your 3G data usage if you're not on an unlimited contract. (From £2.99)
Flying is almost as unenjoyable as actually paying for the tickets, so anything that improves the latter process is welcome. Skyscanner already enjoys a reputation for finding some of the keenest prices around, and the app makes navigating them easy and quick. It's intuitive considering the wealth of information it manages, and we especially love the Explore feature, which allows you to circle the globe finding prices to virtually anywhere from your home airport. (Free)
Fresh Paint
This app emulates the joy of slapping paint on canvas like no other. Paint in one colour and then brush over that same area with another and watch as the colours bleed authentically together. When you're ready, you can switch on the dryer and stop the colours merging. The option to paint over your digital photos is another feather in this terrific app's cap. (Free)
Xbox SmartGlass
SmartGlass turns a Windows 8 tablet into a touchscreen controller for the Xbox console, allowing you to access the non-gaming aspects of Microsoft's console. The SmartGlass interface includes tiles for the apps – such as BBC iPlayer, LoveFilm, Sky etc – that you may have installed on your Xbox, although navigating through those apps can be a little tough. But swiping around the homescreen is perfectly intuitive, and it's a godsend when your Xbox controller batteries have died. (Free)
Cocktail Flow
Cocktail apps aren't rare on iOS and Android, but this early Windows 8 app is a fine example of the genre. Select cocktail recipes by name, type and even colour, or – we like this bit – select all the spirits, mixers and liqueurs you have in your kitchen and the My Bar section will scan its database for cocktails it can create from them. Alas, it's not yet adventurous enough to create something drinkable out of eggnog, champagne and beer. (Free)
With no sign of a Sky Sports app on Windows 8 devices, it's up to rival ESPN to bring us our football news and scores, and this quickly improving app does a fantastic job. You can select favourite teams for quick updates, view the latest results and tables from pretty much every major league of interest around the world, as well as European competitions, and it also has some nice feature articles from the ESPN writers. (Free)
It's no surprise that some of the best-designed apps to hit the Windows Store have come from within Microsoft. The Skype app was built from the ground up to be ideal for use on a tablet such as the Surface, able to run silently in the background at all times, ready to burst into action when a call or instant message comes in. It's also one of the few apps we've seen that remains genuinely useful when snapped side-by-side with other apps. (Free)
Star Chart
One of the early showcases for Windows 8's full-screen style, Star Chart takes a familiar app idea - using your tablet's camera to explore the night sky - and executes it with tremendous panache. Use it as an augmented reality star finder, or simply as an educational tool if you're indoors - and it has a neat Night Mode to make it easier to see what's going on in the dark. (£4.49)
A real-time strategy game in the ilk of PC classic Starcraft, Armed is proof that Modern Windows 8 apps won't lack substance. Equally manageable with a touchscreen tablet or a mouse, Armed requires you to build a base, harvest resources, defend against attack and explore new territories. It's a little complicated to wade straight into either single or multiplayer gameplay, but the excellent tutorial shows you the ropes. (Free)
Ministry of Sound
A must-have app for fans of the legendary dance club, Ministry of Sound provides a wealth of free music sessions for clubbers. The Live From The Club section provides a five-hour set from the past Saturday night, giving you a feel for the atmosphere of the London venue. There's also pre-recorded sets from well-known DJs such as Sister Bliss. If you like the free music on offer, there's also an opportunity to preview and download the club's huge back catalogue of albums via the app. (Free)
The Wikipedia app provides a more convenient way to browse the people's encyclopedia, particularly on tablet devices. The app's homescreen highlights featured images and articles of the day, which provide a fun way to dip into a completely random topic. However, to search for articles, you'll need to use the Search charm – activated by swiping a finger from the right of the screen on tablets. You'll also need a live net connection to perform searches. (Free)
Pinball FX2
Touchscreen tablets are perfect for pinball games, allowing you to merely tap on either side of the screen to operate the flippers. Pinball FX 2 isn't the most impressive pinball app we've ever seen but it has some great features, not least the ability to see how your scores compare to other friends on Xbox Live, and the online tournaments. (From free)
Music Maker Jam
A terrific little tmusicimewaster, Music Maker Jam allows you to blend together your own Dubstep, Jazz or House music, simply by playing with a range sliders and effects. You get to choose which instruments and vocals appear on your tracks and how much emphasis to afford to each, and once you've got the balance right you can start experimenting with key changes and writing your own loops. The resulting soundtracks are awesome, especially when played back through proper speakers. (Free)
Growth Tracker
A smart little utility for parents of babies and young children, Growth Tracker allows you to monitor the height and weight of your child at regular intervals, and see how they compare to the averages for their age. The Height Predictor feature will even take a stab at how tall they're going to be in adulthood. There's a one-child trial version of the app available; it's a mere £1.39 if you like what you see. (£1.39)

Would You Buy a Used Hawk From This Man?
Neocons can't help but slink around Washington, D.C. The Iraq War has given the neoconservatives—who favor the assertive use of American power abroad to spread American values—something of a bad name, and several of the Republican candidates seem less than eager to hire them as advisers. But Rudy Giuliani apparently never got that memo. One of the top foreign-policy consultants to the leading GOP candidate is Norman Podhoretz, a founding father of the neocon movement.Podhoretz is in favor of bombing Iran because of the country's unwillingness to suspend its uranium-enrichment program. He also believes America is engaged in a "world war" with "Islamofascism" and that Giuliani is the only man who can win it. "I decided to join Giuliani's team because his view of the war—what I call World War IV—is very close to my own," Podhoretz tells NEWSWEEK. (World War III, in his view, was the cold war.) "And also because he has the qualities of a wartime leader, including a fighting spirit and a... -

Reaching Across the Aisle On Iraq
Donald Rumsfeld had little stomach for talking to members of Congress, Democrat or Republican. But his successor as Defense secretary, Robert Gates, can't seem to get enough of them—especially Democrats. This summer, Gates intervened in a nasty spat between his No. 3 deputy, Under Secretary Eric Edelman, a former adviser to Dick Cheney, and Sen. Hillary Clinton after the senator requested a briefing on a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq. Edelman accused her of aiding the enemy, and Cheney backed him up. But Gates wrote Clinton a conciliatory letter and ordered Edelman to brief her. Late last week Gates had lunch with the Senate Democratic Policy Committee—something Rumsfeld never did. And within days, administration sources tell NEWSWEEK, Gates is expected to appoint Bill Clinton's former deputy Defense secretary, John Hamre—a highly regarded technocrat—as chairman of his Defense Policy Board, an influential advisory body. (Hamre declined to comment on his imminent appointment... -

Bush's History Problem
Much was changing in Vietnam when I visited in December 1991, in the waning hours of the Soviet Union. The coziness between Moscow and Hanoi, once comrades, had curdled into mutual contempt. The Russians, aware their empire was imploding, had little interest in their former client-state and were looking to leave. The Vietnamese had come to despise the large Russian population for, among other things, its cheap spending habits. By contrast, they welcomed Americans—"Russians with dollars," we were called. The day I visited the old U.S. Embassy in Saigon—where some of the iconic photos symbolizing American defeat were taken—government workmen were removing a discolored brass plaque that once commemorated the North's victory over "U.S. imperialists." At the time of my visit, propaganda against American involvement in Southeast Asia was no longer politically correct. Hanoi's message: Yankees come back (and bring your investment dollars). The cold-war dominoes had fallen—just in America's... -

Pakistan: America's Dubious Ally in Terror War
Pervez Musharraf has always been a dubious ally in George W. Bush's War on Terror—the kind of guy you avert your eyes from while patting him on the back. It's not that Bush doubts the Pakistani leader's sincerity—"He shares the same concern about radicals and extremists as I do and as the American people do," the president said at an Aug. 9 news conference—it's just that Musharraf is never going to make it into Bush's democracy club. And Musharraf's ability to stop his nation's Islamist radicalism from spilling over into terrorism has always been limited. A genial autocrat who seized power in a 1999 coup and has refused to relinquish his general's uniform, Musharraf has succeeded in keeping Washington on his side by regularly handing over second-tier Qaeda suspects and by keeping tenuous control over his increasingly Islamicized country. But now Musharraf may be losing his grip on power amid rising concerns by senior U.S. officials that a new safe haven for Al Qaeda has emerged in... -

Pakistan Ambassador Blasts U.S. Intel
Pakistani Ambassador Mahmud Ali Durrani, a scholar and former general, says the government of President Pervez Musharraf is being unfairly blamed for the failure of U.S. intelligence to locate Osama bin Laden and Ayman al Zawahiri. In an interview last week with NEWSWEEK's Michael Hirsh at Pakistan's Embassy in Washington, Durrani attacked as erroneous the recent National Intelligence Estimate that concluded Al Qaeda has "regenerated key elements" of its ability to attack the United States. The ambassador also argued that the agreement that Musharraf signed with North Waziristan's Pashtun tribes in September 2006, which gave pro-Taliban tribal elders full control in the Pakistani region, is still intact, even though senior U.S. officials such as Homeland Security Adviser Frances Fragos Townsend say it hasn't worked. Excerpts: ... -
Meet the General Who Lends Gravitas to Obama
Those who fall in with the Barack Obama campaign tend to fall hard for the man himself, and none more than Jonathan Scott Gration. A recently retired Air Force major general who voted for George W. Bush in 2000, Gration accompanied Obama on a 15-day tour of Africa last August and was, he says, simply bowled over. When the two traveled to Kenya, the homeland of Obama's father, the U.S. presidential candidate directly confronted President Mwai Kibaki over corruption. "It was an incredible thing to watch," Gration later blogged on BarackObama.com. After the two of them went to Robben Island, the South African prison where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated for almost three decades. Gration had something of an epiphany. "To see how Mandela saved his country by bridging racial, ethnic and in some cases cultural diversity, and turn a page from a turbulent time—I think that's sort of what the senator's doing," Gration told NEWSWEEK in an interview this week. "He's using his experience to turn... -

Iranian Diplomat: We're Ready to Help in Iraq
Mohammad Jafari isn't built like your typical diplomat. Stocky and square-jawed, with a thatch of close-cropped black hair, Jafari looks far more like the Iranian Revolutionary Guards general he once was, and he still carries the honorific title "commander." But that's precisely the issue: which role is Jafari playing now? It was Jafari whom U.S. Special Forces were after last January when they raided an Iranian outpost in Irbil, Iraq, according to a high-level Iraqi official who asked for anonymity in order to speak more freely. The raid netted five junior Iranian functionaries whom the Americans contended were members of the Quds Force, the arm of the Revolutionary Guards that is allegedly aiding in attacks on U.S. troops. Jafari escaped in a car.A few months after his dusty two-hour dash to the border, Jafari had a very different encounter with the Americans. In Sharm al-Sheikh, the posh Egyptian Red Sea resort that hosted a major regional conference on Iraq in May, he sat across... -

Hirsh: A New Way Out on Iran?
U.S. and European officials are still very angry at Mohamed ElBaradei, director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, for appearing to concede that Iran's uranium-enrichment program is here to stay. "Every time he gets up there, he comes out with Iranian talking points," snipes one Western diplomat. But NEWSWEEK has learned that the British recently drafted a proposal that shifts the West's "red line" closer to El Baradei's position as a way of breaking the stalemate in the talks.The draft proposal, which is being circulated among the governments but has not yet been formally submitted to Iran, calls for a "freeze for freeze" rather than an outright suspension of enrichment. The "freeze" concept is similar to the "timeout" that ElBaradei first called for last January. In order to get talks started, both ideas effectively permit Iran to continue with the uranium enrichment it is doing already, but they demand that Tehran freeze further construction of centrifuges and... -
Why Gaza Matters to U.S., the World
The Israelis didn't want Palestinian elections back in January 2006. Even Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian president, had been worried about them and kept asking for delays. As early as the spring of 2005, Abbas had warned American officials that he did not have the popular support to disarm Hamas, the Islamist party that turned suicide terror bombings into a standard tactic in Israel and which both Abbas and the Israelis saw was growing in power. But Bush administration officials insisted, confident of the curative powers of democracy. Later, after Hamas stunned the world by winning control of the Palestinian Parliament, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice claimed: "Nobody saw it coming."The line could describe much of what has resulted from George W. Bush's efforts to transform the world—or at least one part of it, the Middle East. As long as the Islamists of Hamas refused to recognize Israel, the United States refused to deal with the Hamas-dominated Palestinian government. The... -

Hello all. Im a 24 year old part-time student/part-time employee (though 2 part-time jobs almost make me full time!) in Fort Collins, Colorado. Im new to the handgun & CCW scene, doing all of the learning and researching I can to familiarize myself with the topic. My experience has largely been limited to various rifles, so handguns are still not entirely in my comfort zone. Ill be buying my first handgun within the next month (waiting for the money situation to be right), and have appreciated all of the knowledge available on this forum. Hope to take a firearms training class not too long after my purchase and then apply for my concealed license.
Again, thanks for all of the information available here. I hope that in time I can contribute something back!

Great Accessory
Love this timepiece! Nixon has yet to disappoint me. I have the gunmetal/gold colorway and I love it. I wanted the black/tortoise one, but when I saw it in person, I thought it looked a little cheap, but the other colorways are hot. The gold one is a beauty. Not super long, hits around the cleavage area.

Review by
Zach from Millerstown, PA
I bought this sub from a friend of mine and it didn't fit in my trunk opening in my car. So I sold it to one of my other friends. I installed it for him. This thing pounds. It is only an entry level sub but its amazing. It has very clear bass. I plugged it to a two channel lightning Audio amp. I bridged it and it is getting about 250 watts rms. I couldn't find anyway to distort the bass. I turned the gain and cross over up the whole way, and the bass was still very clear, but that isn't good for it so I turned it down some. Overall this is one of the best subs I have ever heard. It has the clearest bass of any sub I have ever heard. I would definitely recommend this sub to anyone who wants clear hard hitting bass...

Paul Barrett using 'digital humanities' to study Canadian author Austin Clarke
Banting Fellow Paul Barrett wants to know why literary critics and researchers do not often consider Canadian author Austin Clarke's novels and writing as part of the Canadian literary landscape. Often regarded as Canada's first multicultural writer, Austin Clarke was born in St. James, Barbados and moved to Toronto in 1955 — going on to become a prominent writer, teacher, journalist and civil servant. However, his work has never received the critical reception of his contemporaries, argues Barrett. More

'This is Me, This is Also Me' at the McMaster Museum of Art
Curated by Dr. Janice Hladki (School of the Arts) and Dr. Sarah Brophy (English & Cultural Studies), this group exhibition focuses on self-representation and self-portraiture. Bringing together a thought-provoking mix of Canadian-based and international works, the exhibition addresses critical or interrogated self-representation in relation to multiple selves, the self-other relation, and the constitution of gender, sexuality, critical embodiment, race, and Indigeneity. The curators consider how representations of displacement, doubling, recognition and mis-recognition, and mutability unsettle ideas about memory and countermemory in autobiographical art.

Let the countdown begin: Fitzhenry Studios and Atrium beginning to take shape
Call it the first work of art produced at the Dr. Robert & Andrée Rhéaume Fitzhenry Studios and Atrium — Shovels Meeting Earth (mixed media, 2014). On Monday, ground was broken at a facility that will reinvigorate and revolutionize McMaster's fine arts community. Once complete in early 2015, the atrium will increase existing classroom, studio and display areas by more than 1,700 square feet. The versatile space will also function as a reception area, with a stunning glass façade rising above Stearn Drive. The project was made possible thanks to a $3 million gift from alumnus Robert Fitzhenry — the largest ever donation to McMaster's Fine Arts program. Fitzhenry made the gift in honour of his late wife, Andrée, during a ceremony last November. Andrée, who passed away in February, 2013, continues to serve as inspiration for those involved in the planning and construction process. Full Story

D-Day: Secret 'Mulberry Harbours' project revealed in McMaster archives
Allied preparations for D-Day were a race against time. The story of how the prefabricated harbours used for the invasion of Europe were planned and built remains one of the best kept secrets from the Second World War. To this day, the project is considered a remarkable feat of engineering, yet few have ever heard of it. Acquired by McMaster in 1976, the Mulberry Harbours collection, which dates from 1942-1947, consists of classified documents from the British War Office, drawings, blueprints, laboratory reports, correspondence and more than 700 official photographs with security classifications, censor stamps and War Office ID numbers.

History Professor Investigates Commercial Advertising in the Third Reich
Selling under the Swastika: Advertising and Commercial Culture in Nazi Germany is the first in-depth study of commercial advertising in the Third Reich. While scholars have focused extensively on the political propaganda that infused daily life in Nazi Germany, they have paid little attention to the role played by commercial ads and sales culture in legitimizing and stabilizing the regime. In her forthcoming book, published by Stanford University Press, Chair of the Department of History, Dr. Pamela Swett, investigates the extent of the transformation of the German ads industry from the internationally infused republican era that preceded 1933 through the relative calm of the mid-1930s and into the war years. The book is featured in the Boston Globe's Brainiac blog.

Dave Grohl's Directorial Debut, SOUND CITY, to Premiere at 2013 Sundance Film Festival
Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters and Nirvana announced today that his directorial debut, the feature documentary film, SOUND CITY about the infamous recording studio in Van Nuys, California will have its premiere screening at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. Grohl and select artists from the film will be in attendance at this year's Festival. More information can be found at www.soundcitymovie.com.
"As a first time director, I am humbled to be able to share my passion for songwriting and storytelling with this incredible cast of legendary musicians, as seen through the extraordinary story of America's greatest unsung recording studio, Sound City. Being included in this group of artists is a true honor, and the Sundance Film Festival is the perfect place to premiere a film about craft, integrity, and passion for art. I am over the moon!"
The film was conceived by Grohl after purchasing the legendary Neve 8028 recording console from Sound City Studios last year. The console, built in 1972, is considered by many to be the crown jewel of analog recording equipment, having recorded such artists as Neil Young, Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, Cheap Trick, Guns and Roses, Fear, Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Slipknot, Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, and countless other musical legends over the past 40 years.
Through interviews with the artists and producers that created decades of musical history at Sound City, the film showcases the amazing history of the studio, focuses on the albums recorded there that went on to change the world, then explores the human element of music in an age of technology, and features performances of new music created exclusively for the film.
Grohl's personal connection to Sound City began with the 1991 recording of Nirvana's breakthrough album, "Nevermind". Selling over 30 million copies worldwide, "Nevermind" changed the entire musical landscape and forever altered the course of Dave Grohl's life.
Roswell Films, a division of the Roswell Records label that releases Foo Fighters music, will distribute the film. Key personnel involved with the film include Producer/Director Dave Grohl; Editor Paul Crowder (Dogtown & Z Boys, Once In a Lifetime, Riding Giants); and Writer Mark Monroe (The Cove, Once In a Lifetime, The Tillman Story). The film is also being produced in conjunction with Jim Rota, John Ramsay, and Therapy studios.

Negligence Not To Buy Another Striker
Will Arsene Wenger ever learn?
No matter how much he talks about mental strength or crap pitches, you are not going to challenge for major trophies (sorry FA Cup, I do love you) starting decent but ultimately no more than above average players like Arteta and Giroud (and probably soon to be Wilshere).
The latter is incredibly infuriating. I appreciate he is not fully fit but a player playing in front of the likes of Ramsey, Ozil, Alexis, Chamberlain, Walcott should be doing miles better but he won't as he is very limited. I can see why Wenger is desperate for Sanogo to succeed, given he is much like Giroud but actually can run (at speed) and dribble a bit giving much greater flexibilty to how the front 3-4 can operate.
Basically, Arsene, go out and spend your money properly. You have two glaring gaps in your team in midfield and attack. Everyone can see it and given the resources you have available, it is bordering on negligence that you have done little about it over the past two years.
Ali, Kensington
...Without wanting to sound massively reactionary, surely there's no Arsenal fan left who can argue that Giroud still deserves to be playing? If you were to make a compilation of everything a striker should avoid doing during a football match, it would pretty much look exactly like his highlights from the game against Besiktas. The thing with Giroud is that these sorts of abysmal games are becoming the norm, so much so that you couldn't even really suggest that yesterday's game was a below-par performance, because that's the level we've come to expect from him.
I actually feel bad for him because he genuinely does try very hard and obviously he doesn't want to be woeful but it's frustrating hearing people making excuse after excuse for him. When he was terrible in February, it was because he'd played too much football and now in August he's terrible because he's not played enough football. Even with the optimum level of football (a few warm-up games plus a run out against Switzerland), he still conspired to be garbage in the World Cup Round of 16 game. Seriously, watch that game against Nigeria again and you'll see a performance on par with anything Fred served up in the World Cup.
Then apparently he needed runners off him and people with pace to help bring out the best in him. He played with Ramsey and Wilshere running in behind and Sanchez providing pace, and he was still rubbish. All the parameters change yet the one constant remains; Giroud is crap. Some Arsenal fans will defend him to the hilt but deep down they know he's awful as well and while I understand it's always preferable to support your players rather than slate them, no one is going to have a go at you for coming out and saying Giroud isn't good. It sounds a lot better than fabricating half-hearted statements about how his ability to bring others into the game is crucial when it's clearly not. I guess my frustration is levelled at people who say Giroud is good more than the man himself.
I know Arsene has said he is happy with his forward options but surely he must've looked at the strikers in the two games so far and reconsidered? Wenger is often slow to rectify problem areas (evidenced by the fact Van Persie still hasn't been adequately replaced) so it's inevitable the lack of a good striker will come back to haunt Arsenal this season.
Brett (PLEASE don't give Giroud a new contract), AFC
...Je déteste Olivier Giroud.
Joshua, South Africa
Campbell On Right Please
While I'll take a 0-0 - I can't have been the only gooner calling for Campbell to have been operating on the right wing.
For me Sanchez, with his pace, will cause the greatest amount of damage in a central position. Yesterday he looked really dangerous but had to come in from the flanks when if he was deployed more centrally he could have had a better shot at goal.
Jack Wilshere hasn't stepped up to the plate in persuading the manager to opt for him over Ozil so perhaps we should have gone 4-4-2 with Sanchez supporting Giroud up front.
The advantage of Campbell is that he has both Champions League experience and knows these sorts of surroundings with the weather conditions and the hostile atmosphere through his time over the sea at Olympiakos. On a night in which there were precious few chances, his ability to shoot from range may also have paid dividends.
The weekend should herald the return of the Germans with a tough trip to Everton so how about giving Campbell a go next week in the return leg? Ramsey won't be available and Jack doesn't look as though he's about to spark into life any time soon so is there really need a for three in the middle?
Graham Simons, Gooner, Norf London
Missing Mesut
Two below-par performances so far this season. When your best player in the last three games has been a 19-year-old centre-back with less than 30 professional performances under his belt, you know you need to step it up quite a bit. Giroud was utter pants. As were Ramsey, Cazorla and Wilshere. Really starting to feel the absence of Ozil.
Malcolm, AFC
Four Conclusions
1) Arsenal were unfairly treated, no doubt.
2) Ramsey is exquisite, Giroud however is sadly not.
3) Despite one or two scary moments Chambers looks the real deal, exciting for England to see him at centre-half.
4) I miss Demba Ba and his mile-long smile.
Paul, NUFC
Arsenal Draw Not So Great
In my opinion 0-0 is a really dangerous result to be taking into a home leg. The consensus here in Turkey is that Besiktas are looking like a strong outfit this season, and if they were to somehow take the lead in the Emirates then put ten men in defence - especially if the goal comes relatively late in the game - what price Arsenal scoring two? A score draw is not beyond the realms of possibility and if that happens we can wave adieu to Arsenal's CL hopes this year.
I expect Arsenal to progress, but the second leg is far from a foregone conclusion.
Jamie Bedwell, Antalya
Spare A Thought For TC23
Rewind to August 2011. United are reeling from two City goals and there just doesn't seem to be a way out for them in the Community Shield. In comes young Tom and with his mobility, tidiness and clever passing changes the game. Short passes, long passes, side-ways ticking over passes and crossfield balls; he had them all in his locker. He starts the season like a house on fire. Until, big brutal Bolton happened. His ankle was broken in a tackle. He returned a few months later against Everton and had a great game in which he made Park look like a decent midfielder. A recurrence caused him to return to the treatment table.
A mini-resurgence occurred under the great Purplenose before he, like everybody else, lost his way under Dithering Dave. Now he is faced with life as a backup midfielder nomatter the formation. Any new additions will push him down the pecking order but not out of the club. Everyone who has seen him play can see that he is a trier. Sometimes it seems like he is trying too hard. Now I have to admit, I have a soft spot for TC23. When he is in form and in full flight, he is a thing of rare beauty. The fluidity he brings is unparalleled. However, it looks like it will be long before we get to see him again in his pomp.
Such is the sad tale of TomClev23. Somebody save him!!!!
Ed, MUFC
Nastasic For United?
This might seem a bit forthcoming and devoid of all senses.
But I think my beloved Manchester United only needs just one more signing for this summer window. An increasingly out-of-favor 5th choice left-footed CB that would fit the 5-3-2 formation that we have been currently employing which best suits the philosophy that Van Gaal wants to instill into the team.
Matija Nastasic.
Manuel Pellegrini wanting a well-established back-up for rotation when Kompany is missing from that backline and the Sheik gifts him with Eliaquim Mangala. This is where Nastasic becomes surplus to requirements and would be the right moment for United to swoop in and pull this transfer off.
He also bears a very uncanny playing style resemblance to a certain legendary captain that was the Serbian destroyer Nemanja Vidic.
Excellent positioning skills, consistently focused and reads a game pretty well, a more than good pass completion record and adequately a monster in aerial duels as well. All this at the ripe age of 21 who City would be willing to let go at 17 Mil pounds to 20 Mil pounds which I consider a steal.
A well settled back-line of Jones-Evans-Nastasic should be more than enough for us to be in touching distance of 4th or 5th place by the turn of the year and be in pole position to sign central midfielder (fingers crossed for Strootman's recovery by then) and a winger and charge on towards May to secure a Champions League spot for next season.
But oh well why would City be willing to strengthen the Red half of Manchester to be able to mount back a return to the top?

Freedom After ITKs
After reading Daniel Storey's article on ITK accounts, I have felt a sudden rush of release, a rush of endorphins that came with unfollowing the three or four ITKs that had been plaguing my life since the end of the World Cup. I am not even sure how I got sucked in, there was the low after the high of the World Cup being (mostly) amazing, and suddenly there was a void in my football consumption. And I got sucked in, I became a magpie with people promising that beautiful shiny jewels such as Vidal, or Hummels, or more recently Di Maria would shortly be joining my beloved team to fix our post SAF crisis. Hook, line and stinker.
Then a voice of reason through the cloud of bulls**t, and I was free. Free to spend time listening to the wife prattle on about Kim and her family, instead of ignoring her in the hope of a 'no news' update from Chile. Thank you Daniel. Free at last, God almighty, I'm free at last.

Boycotting Hoddle
I was talking to a blind guy yesterday who supported Liverpool. I asked him did he listen to the Southampton game at the weekend. He said no and that he boycotts every team associated with Glen Hoddle due to his comments about the disabled. Southampton, Spurs, Wolves and whoever else. He also wrote to ITV about Hoddle working as a pundit there.
I know this happened years and years ago, but he has been in the news a lot lately, and is now at QPR. As far as I know he never retracted his comments and may still hold those beliefs. Are there any other disabled fans who feel the same about Hoddle?
Gags, Ireland
Having seen the first round of games, here are my ten semi-bold predictions for the season:
10) Connor Wickham will score fewer than five league goals.
9) Winston Reid will be West Ham's highest-rated player.
8) Fernando will start more games than Fernandinho.
7) Commentators will find at least four different ways to pronounce 'Koscielny'.
6) Rémy Cabella will register no more than five league assists.
5) Aston Villa will finish no higher than 15th.
4) Leicester City will stay up.
3) Emmanuel Adebayor will score no more than ten league goals.
2) Before September 15, a journalist will begin a sentence with, "At least under David Moyes..."
And, of course:
1) Arsenal will finish fourth.

South Salt Lake couple wake-up to an intruder in their home
SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 News) - A frightening situation for a South Salt Lake family when they wake-up to find an intruder inside their apartment.
It happened around 5:00 am Saturday at the Mountain Shadows apartments. Police say the man crashed through the front door while the couple was sleeping and was met with a gunshot.
Police say this was completely random, the suspect, 18-year-old Daniel Glen Larson did not know the people in the apartment when he broke in. Police say Patty Knepper and Phillip Reinhardt did everything right when confronted by a violent intruder.
I heard someone's foot steps coming and the door started to open and that's when I said somebody's in our room, said Patty Knepper.
I got my gun pointed straight at his head but I'm waiting for him to do something before I pull the trigger, said Phillip.
By this time patty says she's calling 911 on her cell phone and its light illuminates her face and that's when he starts attacking her
She says he grabs her mouth she says all the while she's fighting back and still trying to call 911. That is when Reinhardt shot the intruder.
The 9-MM slug hit Larson in the torso and ends up passing through the wall. Larson then runs to the front room but Patty blocks the front door and Phillip is aiming his pistol at the intruder.
He said if you're not going to let me out I'm going to go through the window he just came over here and went like that, hit it with his elbow, the window shattered and he jumped out, said Patty.
Police say Larson then tries to cross 3900 South and nearly gets hit by a car and collapses.
Larson underwent surgery for the bullet wound and is now in protective custody. He could face charges of burglary and assault once he recovers.

With a character that I bought on a whim: Kassadin. He's turned out to be amazing, and I've noticed hardly anyone plays him. He's not OP by all means, but once you get him down he is a force to be reckoned with. I never thought I would main a mage, but he's turned out to be my favorite champ. So I ask, who was your first Penta with? Do you still use them often?
My first Penta was with Fizz. Un-official penta but a penta nonetheless
Junior Member
Penta Teemo. Huge shroom farm mid. Lost team fight and baited the enemy team into 20+ shrooms. Had to chase Olaf down for the last kill. =D
cry of pride
First was with AD Yi, but unofficial...
break the nexus
Grats man. My first penta was on Urgot and second was with Teemo. AP Teemo da best. ^_^
AD Yi but unofficial and in custom. Back when I was noob
Derpy the Derp
Penta with Vayne, I rarely play her though. Most of my friends want me to get a penta with all the ADCs, I only have 4 so far. Vayne, Graves, Draven, Caitlyn.
I got an official penta with AD master yi. Happened like 5 days ago. Anyway, as my main is kassadin i could give you some advice. The Q-R-E-W-Ignite combo is what i use to kill people in the laning phase. He gets boring after the first week in my opinion. Kassadin either dominates or is useless, depending on weather you get fed or not. Make sure you check the counter list, and if you counter the other person hard, brace yourself for a fun game (unless noob team). If the other person counters you hard, ask for a lane switch. The last thing you want is to be countered as kassadin. I hope you find this useful
