It is really easy to make Home Farm Herbery Gourmet Linguica Sausage Seasoning and
this recipe makes great Linguica Sausage.
You do not need a lot of equipment. An old meat grinder will do or get your meat ground at the meat department. You simply make patties and/or scramble sausage instead of links.
To Make Home Farm Herbery Linguica Sausages you will need the following
The contents of Home Farm Herbery Linguica Sausage Seasoning, 5-lbs pork butt, coarsely ground, 2-tbsp liquid smoke,
2-tbsp minced garlic & 1/2-cup red wine.
Hand-trim fat from the outside of meat to your desired fat
preference. Grind the meat with a course
grinding plate. After grinding, add the Linguica sausage seasonings to the meat
and blend by hand or use a meat mixer.
Be sure to mix thoroughly to ensure the
ingredients are spread evenly throughout the meat. Stuff by hand or by using a sausage stuffer
or sausage stuffing attachment for an electric meat-grinder.
(Note: do NOT use
the blade in meat-grinder when stuffing and it is best to use a stuffing (bean)
plate). If you wish, You can also form patties without casings.
Happy Sausage Making.

Islamic State goes from 'junior varsity' to all pro in 8 months, Admiral Kirby says
In an Aug. 22 press briefing, Rear Admiral John Kirby, the Pentagon's Press Secretary, attempted to defend President Barack Obama's poorly timed statement in January where he referred to the Islamic State as a "jayvee team." This is what Obama had said in an interview with The New Yorker while answering a question on the resurgence of jihadist groups in Iraq:
The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn't make them Kobe Bryant. I think there is a distinction between the capacity and reach of a bin Laden and a network that is actively planning major terrorist plots against the homeland versus jihadists who are engaged in various local power struggles and disputes, often sectarian.
Below is the reporter's question about equating the Islamic State to "a junior varsity team," and Kirby's answer:
Q: In January, the president equated ISIL's capabilities to that of a junior varsity team, so, which seems to be in direct contrast with what the secretary said yesterday. I was wondering if there had been new analysis or done to get to the secretary to that position?And does that mean that ISIS is getting stronger?
REAR ADM. KIRBY: I would make a couple of points. One I would point you to what the president said yesterday or the day before about ISIL and the threat that they posed, as well as comments made by Secretary Kerry, and of course you've heard what Secretary Hagel said. I think everybody has the same view here about the threat posed by ISIL not just to Iraq, but to the region.
There's no divergence. This is August. You're talking about comments that were made in January. ISIL -- and we've been watching this for months. They have grown in capability. I've said it from the podium as have others. They have grown in capability with speed, helped along by resourcing from some of their own criminal activity, as well as donations and ransoms and helped along by a sanctuary that they have in Syria. So, we've all been watching this. They have advanced in capability. And we -- we saw the speed with which they gained ground and held ground in northern Iraq earlier this summer.
So, it's a -- the real answer to your question is, it's a constantly changing, fluid situation, and their threat continues to grow. And that's what led us to where we are today, which is that we believe it does pose an imminent threat, and it's a threat that we need to take seriously.
Kirby is defending the indefensible. The Obama administration and Kirby would be better served admitting that it was a mistake to underestimate the Islamic State. As a senior military officer, he knows that it is impossible for the Islamic State to have gained the capacity to take on two states (Iraq and Syria) and control large regions in both countries in the span of just eight months.
Those of us who have been watching the Islamic State (previously known as al Qaeda in Iraq, Islamic State of Iraq, and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham) have warned that the group has been gaining in strength since 2012. For example, this deadly raid on Haditha in March 2012 shows that the group had regrouped and developed the capacity train, plan for, and execute sophisticated operations against Iraqi security forces.
Watch the video linked above that shows the Islamic State's assault on Haditha in 2012. The tactics used in that attack weren't developed over the past eight months. These tactics have been on display in both Iraq and Syria over the past three years. The alarm bells should have been ringing in the Obama administration once the Islamic State seized Fallujah and several areas in Anbar province in January. Instead, the president grossly understated the Islamic State's abilities. And today, administration officials are referring to the group as a dangerous global threat while the military is launching airstrikes against the group daily and is planning to expand its operations, possibly into Syria.
Administration and military officials shouldn't bristle when asked why they failed to properly assess that danger of the Islamic State. They should admit their mistake and articulate a strategy to defeat the group. Even if a new strategy contradicts previous campaign promises to end the war in Iraq.

I watched REAR ADM. KIRBY's press conference. Was not impressed. I agree with Bill Riggio's comment about fessing up to underestimating IS. However, let's not get ahead of ourselves as to the capabilities of IS. They are competent in the Arab theater, probably along the lines with Hezbollah. But, they can't match a professional western force.

Kirby is a PR flack. You can easily Google his bio on Navy.mil. He's had only one "line" tour of duty, his first. Since then, he's been a headquarters operator.
One in particular of the squadron commanders I had in the Tonkin Gulf would have made Kirby have an accident in his pants. A fire-eater, one of the pilots who took out the bridges that the "Toko-Ri" movie was based upon.
Kirby doesn't pack that kind of gear.
Posted by Evan at August 25, 2014 12:41 PM ET:
Agreed, this brings up a part of the problem here at home.
Leadership, or the lack thereof.
Real leaders do not attempt to complain, blame, or explain.
Real leaders don't try and defend the indefensible.
Real leaders accept responsibility for mistakes, even if it wasn't primarily their fault, they accept responsibility, simply by virtue of being a "leader."
It's a part of our social/cultural problems here at home.
Similar to the " I want it all now, but I don't have to work for it, the world just owes it to me," attitude that I unfortunately see all too often in and amongst my generation.
Everyone wants the credit when things go right, but no one wants to be accountable when things go awry.
Why? Why do we look at things like making mistakes, and see them as things to be avoided and shunned and denied at all cost? This is not right, and the truth is that we need to see problems and mistakes for what they are; Opportunities.
Opportunities to correct these mistakes, to learn, grow and progress, and do better next time. Opportunities to develop ourselves mentally and otherwise, to become something more, something better, and to realize some measure of our true potential. Those beautiful possibilities are only possible if we make mistakes. The real trick is changing our attitudes toward these issues.
To defeat IS, ANF, whoever, is undoubtedly going to require strong leadership. From the top on down. So, let's do it, let's be strong and smart and capable. Let's hold our leaders accountable, insist that they hold themselves accountable, and learn, change, and grow from our missteps and incongruities.

This is exactly why I am 'enlisted class'....not 'officer class'. Officers are the military's politicians and they suck. They look at a hydra with two new heads and act like its something they have never seen before......gutless & pathetic.
Posted by Dan at August 26, 2014 3:39 AM ET:
Great write-up, Bill.
Ownership of mistakes, a natural byproduct of war and transparency has been a discussed subject on SOFREP recently too. And great article on "warontherocks" about not BS'ing the American public is also a great additional read.
We need to be very careful how we respond to the IS. A successful strategy by AQ/AQI, et al has been to goad the west into an angered response against the militants that they can (have) successfully use as propaganda to infer the attack(s) against AQ/AQI et al are in fact against the Muslim world.
Improving public perception through complete transparency could help unite support at home, and abroad. Maintaining the cloak of suspicion does nothing to help combat this very real threat to humanity.

Arming Islamists to fight inside Syria thru Turkey & Jordan was such a Bad idea for the region & all Christians in the ME.

Come on man, gutless and pathetic? Sheesh...
I'm a former enlisted Infantry Marine, and I understand some of your feelings, in general, towards the officers....
But, I had good officers. Strong, smart, capable men who truly cared for their Marines.
Not every single one of them was a shining example of combat prowess, but overall, they were good guys.
Posted by Arjuna at August 26, 2014 2:47 PM ET:
your confidence regarding the abilities of Western armies is not comforting. I served in one of the professional Western forces myself and I don't see any victories from the past thirteen years' efforts by said Armies. I am humbled and steeled when I read accts from SF on the ground in Iraq today describing the high levels of TRADOC ISIS maintains. They fight like our operators (or any elite commandos), they retreat tactically and with weapons, and they use drones in the sky ahead of their columned movements. They even shut down all the cell networks in Mosul when their daddy gave his little speech. These guys are smooth. How much better do they need to be to gain America's respect??
Posted by donowen at August 26, 2014 3:56 PM ET:
In Vietnam I knew within several minutes who I was flying against NV pilot, Chinese or Russian. Your enemy determines your level of response and ultimately whether you have the equipment, skill set, courage and frankly a little luck to win. Certainly ISIS has been fighting worse than JV... They do not have the technology to frankly fight anyone other than equally or lesser equipped JV. So this analogy falls apart because ISIS has no reason to be anything other than a well organized bunch of guys with decent communications gear in Toyota trucks, RPGs, 50 cals and artillery- A good 19th century army. They are great at slaughtering people and I'm sure could be trained to good cow and pig butchers. 10,000 special forces, helicopter gunships, etc and these characters are back to JV or rather dead JV. Let's do this.
Posted by DR at August 26, 2014 4:24 PM ET:
Real leaders also do not make decisions based on popular opinion or what the political ramifications will be but rather with commitment to what is right and wrong. Real leaders demand excellence and surround themselves with like minded individuals, each expert in their field. We are certainly lacking that in the oval office -- what we have is the blind leading the blind or even worse the near-sighted leading the blind.
Posted by Kate at August 26, 2014 9:49 PM ET:
In reference to this and the ABC News article you posted a link to, "ISIS is an 'Incredible' Fighting Force, US Special Operations Say," who is the major player behind these guys?
I strongly suspect that this group is receiving some kind of support by a major player outside of the Middle East. Could it be the Russians, the Chinese or someone else? Is it possible this could morph into a proxy war of some sort?
Key Reasons for suspecting this:
1.) According to our special ops, the ISIS fighting force is behaving much differently than the Iraqi military did. Their movements are far more strategic. Who taught them this strategy?
2.) The have SOF tactics, techniques and procedures. The NATO forces aren't the only ones with special ops. Both Russia and China have them. Although Russia is an ally of Syria, an having an internal enemy might give Syria an additional incentive to keep Russian forces there. Meanwhile, Russia wouldn't mind having something to distract us from the situation in Ukraine. China also wouldn't mind having something that distracts us from the "Pivot to Asia," and I suspect some of their companies (all of which are at least partially owned by the Chinese government) are profiting from weapons sales... (Then again, the Russians have plenty of weapons to sell too.)
3.) If administering crucifixion as a punishment were a disease, it would have been considered eradicated until this year. Interestingly, there is an ongoing "outbreak" of this "disease" among ISIS, and in January, there was a reported "case" of this disease among pro-Russian sympathizers in Ukraine. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/ukraine/10609310/Ukraine-protest-leader-crucified-and-mutilated-after-being-abducted.html. If this were the re-emergence of an "eradicated" disease, epidemiologists would conclude that the "case" in Ukraine must have had some sort of common contact or interaction with the "cases" in ISIS... It is well documented that Russian special ops have been active in Ukraine. Is it possible that they have also been interacting with ISIS? (However, social media can inspire copycat crimes, so these two "outbreaks" could be completely unrelated.)
Posted by David at August 27, 2014 1:41 PM ET:
I think that the commenters and the article are missing something in the administration statement. " I think there is a distinction between the capacity and reach of a bin Laden and a network that is actively planning major terrorist plots against the homeland versus jihadists who are engaged in various local power struggles and disputes,..."
Here, he is saying something that is quite true -- there is a big difference between a local military force, however skillful, and a clandestine terrorist organization. The latter's capabilities include spycraft, false documents, the ability to move about and conduct affairs in western societies, movements of money, methods of theft or fraud for self-financing, building bombs from ingredients unregulated and freely available in western societies, smuggling, etc.
Although they have demonstrated skill in military maneuvers, that is not the same thing as being able to pull off a 9-11 attack, or the Hezbollah attack on the Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires, or an assassination in Mexico. These are different skills, and it is right to conclude that ISIS is primarily a threat to our allies, not to our homeland, at least for now.
Posted by James at August 27, 2014 1:43 PM ET:
The answer to your questions to me are real simple. My educated guess would be Assad and Putin.
Now Assad's problem has become our problem. Oh, this is so convenient (at least from Assad's point of view, that is).
As I've stated on these message boards many times before, this guy will do anything imaginable (or allow anything imaginable to happen) to stay in power.
This whole Arab Spring thing began with the best of intentions. Now, it has become far worse than the French Revolution.
Had we left even a minimal force in place in Iraq this would not have developed.
Had we supported the moderate Syrian resistance in a timely, decisively, and effective manner like we should have, this sorry state of affairs would have never developed.
It's not like we should have done both of the above, had we done one OR the other it would have most likely worked.
As far as the moderates in the Syrian resistance are concerned (due to our not getting on the ball in this thing in a timely manner), they have now either been radicalized or are most likely dead now.
Posted by M3fd2002 at August 27, 2014 4:42 PM ET:
Arjuna, you can believe what you want. You have to take into account the political nature of modern warfare. Post wwii brought in different metrics for western forces. Their soldiers are heavily constrained by rules of engagement. Frankly, the grunts have a greater fear of the JAG than any islamic combatant. They are not "smooth", far from it, they are more like the keystone cops. Look it up. If someone takes the leash off, as the case was in WWiI, your thesis would be moot. Reminds of a joke: Someone was confused about the TV show Star Trek. Asking why there were no muslims on the show? The response: its because its about the future.
Posted by Tunde at August 28, 2014 3:17 AM ET:
ISIS is staffed at the operational and tactical level by former Sunni Iraqi Army members; You know, the ones that were sacked after Saddam was ousted.....
Posted by Evan at August 28, 2014 4:52 AM ET:
In the article you referenced, the Chechens were in fact cited as a possible scource of the IS tactics, techniques and procedures.
The Chechens have been waging a brutal insurgency against Russia for a very long time, some of the Chechens anyway...
They're called the Islamic Caucausas Emirate, or ICE, and they are Al Qeada, IS aligned...
They've sent trainers and also crack combat teams to Syria...
In partial reply to donowen, you're right, they are JV, but we aren't, and neither is Russia, and that's who these guys have been fighting. So there's an argument that could be made that the IS has been able to step up it's game a few notches, at least above militia status, and that has precipitated the events that we've seen taking place on the ground over the last year or so really. Cause for a while there it was 6's in Syria, and a training program like that, including the Chechens and all that logistically would've taken some time.
Some of what the pentagon planners are basing there assessments on are things like, the enemy withdraws tactically from the battlespace to more secure areas, as opposed to insurgents at the very beginning of OIF/OEF, who they said would, scatter in all directions anytime ordinance dropped anywhere near them...
It's a big difference, but it's significance may be overstated I believe.
So, they didn't break and run like cockroaches...
They KNOW that there isn't a capable fighting force on the ground currently, that has the means and the will to pursue them and destroy them IN their strongholds.
They KNOW that once they leave the immediate vicinity of Mosul Dam or Sinjar,if they make it out, they won't be targeted or pursued necessarily...
They KNOW all this because Barack Obama has said as much...
So, they're aware of some advantages they have currently, and they've adjusted their tactics accordingly...
These guys are people, that learn, and adjust to their environment, they've been living in an environment of near total war for a long time, it's not earth shattering that they've picked up some new tricks along the way...
Posted by Arjuna at August 28, 2014 3:58 PM ET:
M3fd2002, I am going to have to respectfully disagree with you on your "keystone cops" comment. These guys are well-led, the hardest of the hardcore, they have lots of good planners, and we're going to get spanked if we don't go on offense, with smart targeting of their leaders, camps and equipment. Remember, we lost in Vietnam to a better enemy strategy with practically no rules of engagement holding us back and loads more high-tech weaponry than our enemy, mainly because we were badly led. I'm afraid that these are the Lakers and Obama is the JV. But I hope I'm wrong!
Posted by Arjuna at August 28, 2014 4:05 PM ET:
Kate, beyond the excellent training and doctrine points the country you are reaching out to identify is actually a kingdom, namely that of Saudi Arabia. Baghdadi gets his juice straight from Bin Laden with whom he was in communication before Bin Laden was killed. Baghdadi believes himself to be the direct successor of Osama, as well as the Caliph. There is also a Saudi Prince called Bin Shaalan who is a longtime sponsor and supposed "Chairman" type character of ISIS. He is a shady one and needs study. Russians and Chinese see these fanatics as a threat which is why we should launch a grand alliance with them to fight Islamists, not interfere in their areas of operation.

@James, @Tunde, @Evan and @Arjuna, very thought provoking feedback! Perhaps it's a combination of factors and not a single source?
@Evan, I really liked your comments that their tactics evolved over time, and that fighting the Russians would have given the Chechens additional techniques. I also liked your points that advertising what we won't do isn't helping the situation. bWhat does the phrase, "it was 6s" mean? :-)
Posted by M3fd2002 at August 31, 2014 1:58 PM ET:
i agree with much of Evans' analysis. I'd add that The chechen IS members are probably their best asset. Tough under fire and aggressive. However, the Russians eventually crushed their jihad. Its my hunch that the Turks are complicit in ISiS's rise. Note: the US military was never been defeated in the post WWII, not in any significant kinetic operation at least! The politicians made command decisions to remove the military from their theater of operations, which is their right and should be kept that way. its concerning to hear individuals revising history, or even worse not understanding the facts on the ground as they played out.
Posted by Arjuna at September 1, 2014 9:50 AM ET:
Lang Vei and A Shau were kind of the opposite of victory; but bad decisions were the drivers, never cowardice or tactical incompetence.
We're all on the same anti-ISIS team. I just hope the gloves come off soon. And the right objective (destroying ISIS) drives the strategy, not getting food and water to civilians.
"There is a Love of Freedom for whose who fight and die, that the sheltered will Never know."

It's time to fight.

Yep, thats right: Sheer magnitude sometimes makes a difference in quality.
I thought about this after watching an estimable Sleeping Beauty by N.C. Dance Theatre and singing in the chorus of Eugene Onegin with Opera Carolina, which coalesced in a way none of us might have suspected from the dress rehearsal. (Bad dress, good show thats what people say, but its not always true.)
As well as both came off, I imagined what might have been possible with greater numbers in corps and chorus.
Part of the impact of full-length story ballets and grand opera comes from sheer enormity, from the spectacle of seeing a stage full of Wilis menacing Duke Albrecht in Giselle or rank upon rank of Egyptians screaming for war in Aida. If I were ever to hear Mahlers Symphony No. 8 half-jokingly nicknamed The Symphony of a Thousand because of the massive forces needed to perform it properly Id hope for an overpowering orchestra and a choir that could waft me to heaven on the sheer strength of its sound.
Charlotte cant afford those. Thats not a complaint about the quality of the performances; its an observation about the resources on hand.
The size of venues available partly limits performances: Even the smaller ranks of NCDT seemed plentiful enough in Knight Theater, and you cant fit more than one horse onstage in Carmen at the Belk. But most of the difficulty is financial, and this is one of the rare occasions where throwing money at a problem would solve it.
If I were a zillionaire, Id give the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra enough money to hire another half-dozen full-time string players. (Or, rather, to expand its endowment, so money would regenerate itself over time.) Id enable NCDT to add to its list of principal dancers and do pieces by expensive choreographers. Id back a production that might otherwise be too costly for Opera Carolina: Boris Godunov, perhaps. Or, in my dreams, a Ring cycle. (But Id have to supply enough money that attendance became irrelevant.)
Audiences satisfied with current production levels may not clamor for these improvements, and regular ticket sales wont pay for them. But this is one of the rare situations where bigger really would be better. I hope someone on the brink of endowing yet another business school gives that idea some thought.

RBR Consultants, Inc.
Areas of Expertise:
I am a professional engineer with over 50 years of experience in the electric power industry. After graduating from MIT and serving as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army, I started my career in physics, thermal hydraulics, and heat transfer. In 1965, I joined the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) where I established national containment acceptance criteria. Later, as the AEC licensing manager for the Indian Point 3 (IP3) Plant, I completed its safety review, wrote the safety evaluation report, and presented my results before the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS). This led to the licensing of this plant. I was then selected by AEC Commissioner Doub to serve at diplomat rank at the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, Austria (1974-1979). I led the efforts of some the world's outstanding nuclear design experts. We produced a series of international nuclear design safety standards.
I returned in 1979 to the Department of Energy where I worked on the safety of our Defense Nuclear Systems. In 1981 the New York Power Authority (NYPA) offered me the position of Manager of an adjudicatory hearing defending IP3. I developed the technical strategy for this case and wrote major portions of the testimony presented to the court. Some of my material was published in the NY Times. This case was successfully concluded in 1985.
Later, as Technical Advisor to NYPA's Executive Vice President, I was asked by the Department of Energy to chair a national committee on emergency planning. Our final report was forwarded to Congress. I also chaired NUMARC's Task Force on Emergency Planning. Our NUMARC report (NUMARC/NESP-005) was distributed to all U.S. nuclear utilities. I was a guest lecturer at Harvard for over five years on emergency planning. I also directed NYPA's efforts on the hardened vent issue, saving the company over one million dollars. As part of this effort I discovered that the NRC's cost/benefit equation was incorrect. I then worked with EPRI to provide the correct formulation.
In the source term area I directed NYPA's computer code development for severe accident analysis. I presented results before the American Physical Society, the ACRS, and the NRC. I served on a DOE source term committee and was a principal speaker at an ANS Executive Conference on source terms. In 1987, I conducted a major review of the NRC's NUREG-1150, gave testimony to NRC expert panels and to the American Nuclear Society's Special Committee on Source Terms. I published source term papers in "Nuclear Engineering and Design" and elsewhere.
In 1992 I initiated a national effort on "Risk-Based Regulation" (RBR) and presented this concept to all five NRC Commissioners at a public hearing. Risk based regulation has become the centerpiece for modernizing the nuclear regulatory process at the NRC and within the nuclear industry. I have written fundamental papers on this subject, assisted EPRI in initiating its program on risk-based regulation, appeared before national regulatory and industry groups, been a guest lecturer and invited international speaker, chaired industry committees on this subject and have been an active member on others. In 1993 I wrote the ANS Policy Statement on RBR.
In addition to my RBR activities, I have published extensively on other nuclear safety issues, on the environment, and on energy policy matters. I have served on an editorial board of an international energy journal.

This is a discussion on I'm going to start carrying a Glock within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by MrBuckwheat I keep my Sigs and H&Ks in the safe, Glocks are the what I carry. Same here, I'm a fan of ...
I really want a Glock 19 Gen 4 for carry in the colder months. I've completely gotten over Glocks not being pretty because my carry guns are tools, not things to show off. I'm not a "Glock guy". Never have been. I'm not brand loyal at all. But the Glock 19 didn't get its reputation overnight. It's a proven platform. If it's good enough for military and LE, it's good enough for me.
A Glock 19 and my Walther PPS would make a great carry combo.
I carry a Glock 23 everyday but I put some skateboard tape on the grip for a better feel for me.

Oh no sir. I didn't. I acknowledge me flip flopping these past couple years, all the while trying to find my niche'. I was just explaining my mindset...
But after a few gun shop trips it looks like I won't be doing any flip flopping for atleast a month or two... The shelves around here are E.M.P.T.Y. After talking to alot of people who has been through the first AWB they seem to think the market will calm down and adjust so I'll just keep saving until then.
As for the flip flopping, I started off with a Glock 17. Then a Berretta 92, another Glock, a Kimber, an HK P2000 and P2000sk, and then a lot of 9mm Sigs. I sold the Sigs and am back at the Glock lineup. I like 9mm Glocks very much. I am only possibly being swayed by the M&P lineup in 9mm. But there is nothing wrong with finding what you like.
Don't the competition Glocks get 3 mags as well? Or is that just fancy wording with the Blue and Red labels??? I have been considering getting into the GSSF and wanted to get heavily into shooting more this year than last but with recent events its kind of difficult to get ahold of.

Saw a chart online where someone took the Marshall and Sanow study and put together the weapons and shells, and the 1 shot stop percentages in actual street shootings. Turns out from that the .40 and .357 are the most consistent across numerous types of ammo, followed closely by the .44 Mag. and the 9MM.
In reality, I think it means that if you get the gun that fits, and the self defense rounds that works best with your weapon of choice, any four of them are the best choices.
The worst? Yep, 22LR and .25.
I'm sure many of you have seen this before, but I'll post the link JIC:
Of course - with all that said, I vote for you bumping up to the Glock 23. Bought it myself and absolutely love it.
Congratulations on you choice of the G19. I have one and absolutely love it. Easy to CC, accurate, dependable, easy to maintain.
First post for me here. I've been through these forums for several months now and finally registered. I just picked up a Glock 22 Gen4 last week and LOVE it. I've got several other pistols I've been borrowing and renting for testing to help settle on a brand, caliber and model. The 9mm (19 or 17) was my first preference, but the 40 didn't feel much "worse", so here I am a new gun, Glock, .40S&W owner! This is my first pistol purchase, but not likely my last.
Love the utilitarian look of the Glock, but more importantly it's the brand I picked up quickest to shoot accurately and kept coming back to want to shoot more. Wanting to practice is a big deal and the Glock fits that mold for me.
I'm already eyeing a gen3 27 for CC. I've shot the gen3 26 and loved it too, but thought my first purchase should be a full size pistol (just my take). Other options are the Sig P938 or Nano9 (enjoyed those too). But, the simplicity of the Glock and consistent platform of the 22 to 27 have added attractiveness. Haven't found any Gen4 27's, so thus the possible Gen3 for my CC (don't mind the older grips, but do prefer the newer Gen4's).
Like many here, I have quite a few truly excellent pistols, including a lot of Glocks, 1911s, M&Ps, Hi-Powers, etc. I love them all in different ways.
But if I could only keep just one of them, the G19 might just be the one that combines almost all of the disparate desirable defense gun attributes reasonably well in one comfortable, nice sized package.
Excellent choice, I believe, that you will never regret.

We are buying a house, and there are is one bed the previous owners used rock/gravel as basically the mulch. If I dug down and planted my roses in this bed, would the rocks make it too hot for the roses? They will get morning sun but shaded in the afternoon. The question I guess is basically, do we need to remove the rocks, leave them, or just cover them with mulch? Thanks for the help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'd remove the rocks--get it over and done with so that it doesn't bug you for years to come! And you don't want to dig and let the rocks get mixed into the planting soil. Kate |
I don't mess with amending the soil. I plant em in the clay here and top dress em with rose soil once a year. They grow great! |
- Posted by jaspermplants 9 az (My Page) on Fri, Apr 4, 14 at 13:56
In my climate roses bake in rock mulch. I've removed all that awful stuff from my yard (previous owners had put it everywhere). A good organic mulch, such as wood chips or something similar is much better. |
Thats what I was asking about just covering the rocks with wood mulch rather then removing them? Its a lot of rocks.....Sized between golf balls and tennis balls. |

Hi KingCobb Been there, done that - in terms of trying to cover rock beds with mulch and believe me it's a total pain in the neck. I agree with everyone that you need to remove the rock now as thoroughly as possible before you even try planting anything in there. Even if you think you're only going to dig a hole and keep the rocks at the surface, it never works that way. They roll down the hole sides as you try to put the rose in, and if you have to remove a rose they slide all over and dig into the soil as well. Then it's perfectly awful to dig new holes into that soil, since those golf ball sized rocks are now buried deep and you hit them every time you dig in with a new shovel full. Really, I advise biting the bullet now and scraping off the surface now, since it's too hot in your climate to plant the roses in a rock garden. You'll save yourself no end of grief in the end. Cynthia |
One more thing -- if the rocks are limestone, they'll make the soil beneath very alkaline. If you don't know, do the vinegar test -- if some spilled onto the rocks starts to fizzle, then you have limestone. :-) ~Christopher |
I know someone who uses white rock mulch in all his rose beds but he's in Colorado where it's cooler. It might be too hot for Texas. I think I'd remove it. |

I want a very light gray grout for my Arctic White tub/shower surround. Ideally no blue or tan cast. Just gray. I don't want a mass of white, but I don't want grout lines to be super-prominent. My tile guys do NOT custom mix so that's not an option. Two choices seem possibilities: Laticrete Silver Shadow What do you think? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by ineffablespace (My Page) on Wed, Jun 4, 14 at 16:16
I picked the first and substituted the second because of availability at my vendor, I think they both have a slightly bluish cast: I was selecting for blue tile and wanted a grey white that didn't go yellow next to the blue. |
Ha, I was just looking at grout earlier today. Silver Shadow is nice. (We are using Laticrete Bright White on our Gloss White Daltile and Antique White on our White Daltile.) |
Thanks guys. I actually think I have Platinum for my kitchen backsplash which is a creamy white. It does have a slightly blue/mauve cast to it. In fact, it's always been slightly irritating to me, but not something I focus on unduly. Hmmm, now I'm thinking maybe Laticrete Smoke Gray might be less blue. It's slightly darker, but a warmer gray. My floor tile loves all the grout colors. |
I like Laticrete Smoke Gray, it will be on our shower floors (tile is a warm white). I think it has a touch of brown. Should be grouted this week, if you are not in a hurry I can try to take photos for you. |
Oaktown, I need to choose by tomorrow. They left their sample kits with me. Having said the Platinum irritates me in the kitchen, I think I was exaggerating a bit. I sometimes pick up a whiff of mauve but I think it's a little more accentuated next to the creamy (i.e., a little yellow-y) tile. Finally the tile guy is gone for the day. It doesn't matter how the grout looks in the kitchen, since it's going in the bathroom! I do see a little blue in the Silver Shadow. Coming down the homestretch, Smoke Gray is in the lead. |
linelle, just curious, what did you end up using? Ours goes in tomorrow . . . |
Oh jeez, Oaktown, talk about vacillating. I'm going with Smoke Gray too. I *really* wanted the lightness of Silver Shadow, but I could not unsee the blue cast. I was afraid someone would say, "So, blue grout?" Smoke Gray is a tad darker than I wanted, but it's a warm gray. Mine goes in tomorrow too. Here's looking at you, kid. The floor was easy. Since it's a melange of many grays, all the gray grouts look good with it. I'm using Delorean Gray. Hopefully the floor tile goes in tomorrow. |
Oaktown, mine's done. How did yours turn out? I knew I'd freak a bit when it went in wet and dark. The guy is right now cleaning up and I'm anxious to see how it looks when it dries. |
linelle-that looks great!! Please do a full reveal when you're completely done. |
Wow linelle, hope mine turns out as nice! Will probably go by this afternoon to check. Is Zephyr a tuxedo? We used to have one, she was the sweetest thing. |
Oaktown, so this is a new build for you? I am so happy to have no workers in my house for a few days, even the affable Miguel. On the other hand, I'm glad I was around to answer little questions like, here or there? this way or that? etc. I try to stay out of their way and not interfere or hover, but I would rather err on the side of being too involved rather than, OMG why didn't you tell me you were going to do that?!!! The agony of picking a grout color. This one's fine, no blue. Zephyr (spot on nose) and his twin sister Bessie are kinda tuxedos. I think they're more like Holstein cattle. |
Linelle - Your tile & grout look GREAT (now I wish I did subway in my bathroom), and your kitties are SO cute! Holsteins, very funny. My tile guy also would not mix grout, to get the color I wanted... I don't get it. If I ever tile myself, I am mixing grout - just because I can! :-) |
mdln, my original plan was to do 4x4 tiles in a plain stacked pattern in light gray, the SAME tile I was taking out. My BD thought I was nuts. I finally found the original tile but there wasn't any trim available. I swore I wasn't going to do subways, but oh well. Call it overdone and a trend that has peaked, nobody I know has a subway tile anywhere in their house. When I asked my tile guy's supervisor about mixing grout colors, it sounded like it was simply company policy. He was nice about it and I didn't push it. I'm sure it's fraught with problems if the homeowner doesn't like the mix, since you don't get a little plastic stick to look at and you can't tell from wet grout what it will ultimately look like. I'm like you, if I ever tile myself (and that would be the day), I would mix and do sample boards. For now, I'm fine with the good job my guy did. I even got a thumbs up over at John Bridge. |

The vehicle-mounted IP-S2 mobile precision mapping and survey system integrates laser scanning and digital imaging for the building of 3D models.
A vehicle-mounted, mobile 3D precision mapping and survey system introduced by Topcon, IP-S2 combines dual-frequency GNSS signal tracking and positioning with inertial measurement to integrate laser scanning and digital imaging. By using 3D laser scanners, LIDAR "point cloud" and/or cameras, the data collected is integrated, time-stamped and geo-referenced. The customer can then quickly and accurately combine LIDAR and digital imaging data to build 3D models of the areas driven. Sensor integration creates applications for the technology in GIS, construction, agriculture, mapping and machine control.
Topcon Positioning Group has added the X-63i 3D indicate system for excavators to its machine control line of products.
Topcon Positioning Group has announced advances to its P-32 asphalt paving system with new components including the ST-3 sonic tracker, anti-vibration slope sensor, and a firmware update to the full-color, graphic display GC-35 control box.

New American Standard (NAS) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 The first account I composed, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach, | 1 In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach |
2 until the day when He was taken up to heaven, after He had by the Holy Spirit given orders to the apostles whom He had chosen. | 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. |
3 To these He also presented Himself alive after His suffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God. | 3 After his suffering, he showed himself to these men and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God. |
4 Gathering them together, He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, "Which," He said, "you heard of from Me; | 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. |
5 for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now ." | 5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit." |
6 So when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying, "Lord , is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?" | 6 So when they met together, they asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" |
7 He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or epochs which the Father has fixed by His own authority; | 7 He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. |
8 but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth." | 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." |

Wilderness survival is AWESOME! This morning, we took some pills that Jason got off a friend. Then we inhaled spores from a hallucinogenic fungus we found in a cave. Then we licked a toad. Then we spent a good hour or so just scrabbling about on the floor of a cave and laughing.
After lunch, a madman stabbed me with a poisoned stone blade--but rather than killing me, it sent me on a personal vision-quest! Great fun. Really learning a lot about myself, and about enduring life off the grid.
This evening we're going to go hang-gliding and then punch a shark to death so Jason can make me a new wallet. Best day.

Re: St Mary's Gov Cup / other Chesapeake Bay races
I don't have enough posts to post links so you'll have to Google the things below
I live in the Hampton area. There are several races here at the extreme south of the Chesapeake.
Southern Bay Race Week aka The Black Seal Cup happens right after the Down the Bay Race. Many boats race down the bay and then stay for SBRW.
There's the "Round the Lights Race" hosted by Old Point Comfort Yacht Club in the fall.
They also host the Tri-Service Cup which is a competition between the yacht clubs from Ft. Monroe, Langley AFB, and Norfolk Naval Base. I don't know if other random boats can join, but you could probably crew.
There's the Neptune Atlantic Regatta which coincides with the Neptune Festival - also in the fall.
The Cape Charles Cup. The Stingray Point Regatta hosted by the Fishing Bay Yacht Club in Deltaville.
Lots of racing opportunities down here. Check Spinsheet's Southern Bay Racing News for more info. spinsheet.com/category/southern-bay-racing-news/
And if anyone needs crew for any of these events, let me know.

Seattle area. The hummers all go to the back of my yard and whiz around the various bushes, but try as I might, they -never- will use my typical inverted feeder I put on my back porch so I can -see- them. I've tried various special-purpose food mixes, sugar-water, various ways to clean the feeder. Various positions on the porch. No dice. I dunno if it's the -feeder- per se or that they don't want to get near the house but I'd appreciate any tips on attracting them to within visual range. I've kinda gotten obsessed trying to figure out what the deal is. I keep reading how 'desperate' they are for calories but these guys don't even seem to -notice- (or want to notice) my feeder. BTW: I dunno if it matters, but most of the ones I see in my area are small and kinda green or gray. Sometimes the gray ones have a green or gray throat. There are a rare few that are yellow-ish. Tips? |

I placed my feeder where I saw the hummingbirds in my yard, until I saw them feeding off it, then every day I moved it a couple a feet closer to the spot I wanted to keep mine hung so I could see mine. They moved with it and mine now hangs right on the back porch. If that doesn't work, they might just be more interested in the flowers and protien in your bushes. Good luck. I get mine in early May and then August. I've been trying to get some to stay all summer like my mom has with no luck. |

Place a big pot of some hummingbird attracting annual on your back porch and hang the feeder close by. They'll discover it in no time. And I find some feeders are more appealing than others - forget the fancy blown glass ones and go with the cheapo plastic discs. These tend not to spoil as fast in hot weather and give the hummers a perch for feeding......all the better to watch them!! And the species you are describing are most likely Anna's. They are year round residents in the Puget Sound area and are not the most colorful hummers on the planet, especially when juveniles. Adult males often have iridescence and a red throat. And I'd not worry about them being fearful of the house. IME, hummers are not afraid of much - not me , not the house, not my cat (who knows he's not anywhere as fast and just looks) or the dog. In fact, I am a little bit afraid of them coming into the house as a hanging basket they frequent is right by the back door that is almost always open in hot weather. And they hover and stare at me through the windows. |
Where you wrote: "Place a big pot of some hummingbird attracting annual on your back porch and hang the feeder close by." Can you suggest some types of flowers? We really don't get too many annuals. TIA. |
- Posted by gardengal48 PNW zone 8 (My Page) on Fri, Jul 18, 14 at 17:31
By annuals, I also mean tender perennials grown as annuals. Try from this list: Doesn't have to be an annual - a generous perennial planting will work just as well. Bee balm, phygelius, agastache are all possible candidates. |

Coaching is about bridging the gap between where you are and where you want to be—and creating extraordinary results in your life, career, or business.
You may be thinking, "Why do I need a coach? I can do that myself."
If so, my question is this: If you can, why haven't you?
Because it's not easy to bridge the gap alone.
Creating an extraordinary life requires intention, strategy, focus, action, and support.
Coaching is a powerful, substantive conversation and support system that empowers you to realize your potential more quickly, easily, and joyfully. Learn what to expect when coaching with me.
Make no doubt about it: Coaching is an investment you make in yourself to create the life you truly want. Select from one of these coaching packages based on need, schedule, and budget.
Still on the fence about coaching?
Questions about which package is a good fit?
Schedule a 20-minute, no-obligation consultation. At the end of the consultation you should know whether you're interested in coaching at this time—and whether I'm the right coach for you.

Good News Translation (GNT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Dead flies can make a whole bottle of perfume stink, and a little stupidity can cancel out the greatest wisdom. | 1 As dead flies give perfume a bad smell, so a little folly outweighs wisdom and honor. |
2 It is natural for the wise to do the right thing and for fools to do the wrong thing. | 2 The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left. |
3 Their stupidity will be evident even to strangers they meet along the way; they let everyone know that they are fools. | 3 Even as he walks along the road, the fool lacks sense and shows everyone how stupid he is. |
4 If your ruler becomes angry with you, do not hand in your resignation; serious wrongs may be pardoned if you keep calm. | 4 If a ruler's anger rises against you, do not leave your post; calmness can lay great errors to rest. |
5 Here is an injustice I have seen in the world - an injustice caused by rulers. | 5 There is an evil I have seen under the sun, the sort of error that arises from a ruler: |
6 Stupid people are given positions of authority while the rich are ignored. | 6 Fools are put in many high positions, while the rich occupy the low ones. |
7 I have seen slaves on horseback while noblemen go on foot like slaves. | 7 I have seen slaves on horseback, while princes go on foot like slaves. |
8 If you dig a pit, you fall in it; if you break through a wall, a snake bites you. | 8 Whoever digs a pit may fall into it; whoever breaks through a wall may be bitten by a snake. |
9 If you work in a stone quarry, you get hurt by stones. If you split wood, you get hurt doing it. | 9 Whoever quarries stones may be injured by them; whoever splits logs may be endangered by them. |
10 If your ax is dull and you don't sharpen it, you have to work harder to use it. It is smarter to plan ahead. | 10 If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed but skill will bring success. |
11 Knowing how to charm a snake is of no use if you let the snake bite first. | 11 If a snake bites before it is charmed, there is no profit for the charmer. |
12 What the wise say brings them honor, but fools are destroyed by their own words. | 12 Words from a wise man's mouth are gracious, but a fool is consumed by his own lips. |
13 They start out with silly talk and end up with pure madness. | 13 At the beginning his words are folly; at the end they are wicked madness-- |
14 A fool talks on and on. No one knows what is going to happen next, and no one can tell us what will happen after we die. | 14 and the fool multiplies words. No one knows what is coming-- who can tell him what will happen after him? |
15 Only someone too stupid to find his way home would wear himself out with work. | 15 A fool's work wearies him; he does not know the way to town. |
16 A country is in trouble when its king is a youth and its leaders feast all night long. | 16 Woe to you, O land whose king was a servant and whose princes feast in the morning. |
17 But a country is fortunate to have a king who makes his own decisions and leaders who eat at the proper time, who control themselves and don't get drunk. | 17 Blessed are you, O land whose king is of noble birth and whose princes eat at a proper time-- for strength and not for drunkenness. |
18 When you are too lazy to repair your roof, it will leak, and the house will fall in. | 18 If a man is lazy, the rafters sag; if his hands are idle, the house leaks. |
19 Feasting makes you happy and wine cheers you up, but you can't have either without money. | 19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything. |
20 Don't criticize the king, even silently, and don't criticize the rich, even in the privacy of your bedroom. A bird might carry the message and tell them what you said. | 20 Do not revile the king even in your thoughts, or curse the rich in your bedroom, because a bird of the air may carry your words, and a bird on the wing may report what you say. |

The Rolling Stones are no strangers to film, be it powerful uses of their music in the films of Martin Scorsese, Stanley Kubrick, and Terry Gilliam, or their own presence in, among others, Gimme Shelter and Jean-Luc Godard's essay-like Sympathy for the Devil. But, though Mad Men flirted with a direct onscreen portrayal just a few weeks back, the project at hand might be their first onscreen appearance in a (slightly) fictional capacity.
Deadline reports that Richard Branson and his film arm, Virgin Produced, have landed film rights to Exile on Main Street: A Season in Hell with the Rolling Stones, Robert Greenfield's recount of the recording process behind their legendary 1972 album, Exile on Main St. Like that tome, the untitled movie — set to be scripted by Phil and Brandon Murphy — shines a light (get over it) on "the professional and personal relationship between head Stones Mick Jagger and Keith Richards as the band record their classic [album] in the south of France in the summer of 1971."
It's not my desire to see yet another film about conflicts amongst the members of classic bands, nor am I wholly encouraged by a slate of highly negative Amazon reviews. Maybe Branson's friendship and past associations with The Rolling Stones can help bring some more authenticity, energy, and vitality to the proceedings.
Here's a longer synopsis of the original book (via Amazon):
"By 1971, Jimi Hendrix, Brian Jones and Janis Joplin were dead and Jim Morrison soon would be. Equally troubled, the Rolling Stones, those bad boy icons of the era, took their decadent circus to the French Riviera to escape British taxes and record an album. In a slang-filled present tense, Greenfield (Dark Star: An Oral Biography of Jerry Garcia) gives good gossip about the mayhem that ensued at the Villa Nellcote, the palatial mansion—and supposed former Gestapo headquarters—that Keith Richards rented as his getaway. Greenfield tells of who slept with whom, Keith's outlaw antics and the massive amounts of drugs consumed. The central story, however, is the struggle between Keith and Mick Jagger, who was increasingly drawn to high society, typified by his marriage to Bianca Perez-Mora. A who's who of celebs passed through Nellcote that summer, including John Lennon and Yoko Ono and Gram Parsons."
Do you have any interest in the making of Exile on Main St.?

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) – This year's college grads have an edge over the class that preceded them when it comes to that all-important first paycheck.
Employers are paying more in starting salaries overall than they did with the class of 2003-2004, according to the spring salary survey from the National Association of Colleges and Employers.
And there are early indications that employers will be hiring more college grads this year. NACE will release exact numbers in its Job Outlook survey next month.
Sure, there are a few majors that are seeing slight declines in starting salaries compared with last year. Namely, the starting salary for computer engineering jobs is down 2 percent; and the starting pay for information science jobs is down 0.8 percent.
But many have seen significant increases. Aerospace and aeronautical engineering majors, for instance, are enjoying a 9 percent increase in starting salaries; marketing majors have seen a 6 percent increase in starting salaries; while economics and finance majors are getting paid 5.1 percent more than last year.
Meanwhile, chemical, mechanical and civil engineers are also seeing paychecks that are at least 4 percent higher.
Even liberal arts grads as a group – those notoriously low-paid first-timers in the workforce – are enjoying a bump in pay of 4.2 percent, albeit to what is still one of the lowest starting salaries out there -- $30,337.
In a separate part of its survey, NACE asked employers which jobs they have offered the most so far this year and what their starting salaries were. They are:
All of the salaries quoted are national averages. The NACE survey looked at starting pay in 70 disciplines at the bachelor's degree level.
NACE conducts its surveys quarterly. Final numbers for starting salaries for the class of 2004-05 (which includes any college student who graduated between Sept. 1, 2004 through Aug. 31, 2005) will be out in September.

The day started, after short introductions from our hosts Nacton Farm and partner organisations (LEAF and the Soil Association), with a detailed presentation by David Stanley on how farming fits into the climate change puzzle and what some of the practical solutions might be. The challenge for the group of arable and larger scale vegetable producers present was how to incorporate these ideas (many of which included livestock) into systems that mostly did not include animals.
Following this scene setting and some subsequent discussion we moved on to what some of the major issues facing the group and how an on farm trial might help. The following were identified as the main issues.
From these topics two were identified as priorities - namely Weed Control and Top Dressing for later fertility. Two farms were keen to trial these techniques with a potential third hoping to join them.
Weed Control - because of the specialist equipment needed it was agreed that Nacton would do some comparative trials with a range of weeding equipment (potentially Foam Weeding, Electrical, Garfield interrow weeder and Combweed) and to hold a further event at their farm later in the season.
Top Dressing - the farms involved will be talking more to iron out the detail of the trial but the suggestion was to trial a range of fertilisers suitable for organic systems on 25m runs with a control where nothing was added (this could potentially be the rest of the farm if nothing else different was going on there). They would probably need to be put on by hand in the trial though some thought will also need to be given to how this is then applied to larger areas of crop.
The fertilisers suggested were:
We would hope to measure the following from the trial:
The George Inn, The Square, Mere, Wiltshire, BA12 6DR
Tolhurst Organic Partnership C.I.C., West Lodge, Hardwick, Whitchurch on Thames, Pangbourne RG8 7RA

From Publishers Weekly
The florid 16th Anita Blake novel (after 2007's The Harlequin) updates Anita's endlessly erotic adventures as a living vampire with many weird lovers. Anita serves her vampire sweetie Jean-Claude, Master of the City of St. Louis, obsessed with feeding him and her own need to leech off of others' sexual pleasure or ardeur while retaining her rep as vampire executioner (despite the seeming conflict of interest), U.S. marshal and necromancer. She's also accompanying her bed-buddy Jason Schuyler to visit his dying estranged father in North Carolina. After arriving, Jason's mistaken for his rich cousin Keith Summerland, who's ditched his bride-to-be to run off with the wife of a vampire Master, giving Anita a case to solve between wild orgies with wereanimals. Hamilton chronicles Anita's escapades with a growing air of ennui, which longtime readers can't help sharing as sex increasingly takes the place of plot and character development. (June)
