Winter recreation can displace ungulates to poor habitats, which may raise their energy expenditure and lower individual survivorship, causing population declines. Winter recreation could be benign, however, if animals habituate. Moreover, recreation creates trails. Traveling on them could reduce energy expenditure, thereby increasing ungulate survivorship and generating population benefits. Balancing recreation use with wildlife stewardship requires identifying when these effects occur. This task would be simpler if guidelines existed to inform assessments. We developed and tested such guidelines using two approaches. First, we synthesized literature describing the effects of winter recreation—motorized and nonmotorized—on northern ungulates. This synthesis enabled formulating six guidelines, while exposing two requiring further attention (ungulate habituation and displacement). Second, we tested these two guidelines and evaluated the others by quantifying the behavioral responses of moose to snowmobiles, in two areas of south-central Alaska, differing by snowmobile predictability. For each location, we modeled moose preferences during the snowmobile period using different combinations of eight variables—static (elevation and slope), biotic (habitat and cover), and anthropogenic (distance to roads, railroads, snowmobile trails, and trail density). We identified the model with the most support and used it to estimate parameter coefficients for pre- and post-recreation periods. Changes in coefficients between periods indicated snowmobile effects on moose. Overall, we produced and evaluated six guidelines describing when winter recreation is potentially detrimental to ungulates as follows: (1) when unpredictable, (2) spanning large areas, (3) long in duration, (4) large spatial footprint, (5) nonmotorized, and (6) when animals are displaced to poor quality habitats.

I buy these 4 at a time in case they get discontinued! You name it, I've tried it for my soft, fine, thin hair. This wonderful stuff thickens my hair like nothing else. My hair is short and I use 2 pumps, my hair never feels dirty like other reviews. Please TIGI keep making this superior product!
I use Healthy Sexy Hair shampoo and conditioner, brush my hair while I'm in the shower, towel dry my hair, put Matrix Biolage oil in, Healthy Sexy Hair leave in conditioner, then I use three pumps of this stuff in my hair. I rub it between my hands then just toussle it through my hair. I'll usually put my hair back up into the towel, but when it dries it looks amazing. I can go two days without washing and it won't be oily. (I thought it would, using an oil+ leave in+ styling product)
I'm usually really cheap, to be honest. Suave all the way. Recently, I've started using higher end hair products and I can really tell a difference. It's worth checking out.

I have fine hair in a jaw length bob and have tried so many products that claim to give volume but they all just weigh my hair down. I read the reviews on here for this product and thought I would give it a go. So pleased I did. This product really does add volume that lasts all day. I only use one pump as a little goes a long way. I use this in conjunction with totally baked glaze haze and my hair is left shiny with lots of body. I will definitely be buying this again and cannot recommend it highly enough! It's a little pricier than other products but as you only need a little it will lasts for ages!

This stuff works. I have used many high end volumizers including Living Proof and Aveda. This one is better. My hair stylist recommended it and I am so glad he did!

Great product that does what it says it's going to! Make sure you don't use a lot or you will end up sticky and stiff.

I got this product at ulta this past weekend with my reward points. I have super fine, limp hair. My hairstylist recently told me to find a light weight mousse to give extra volume but I haven't had much luck. So I saw this product and decided I would give it a try. First off this smells amazing in the bottle, just like lemon squares! The scent doesn't seem to stick to the hair so after drying I couldn't really smell it anymore. The product itself is more of a foam than a mousse so it doesn't weigh my hair down like heavier products. When I first used it I ended up using too much product, I used two pumps when I really only need one. I focus the product mainly on my roots and blow dry my hair upside down. I can't explain how much volume this gives my hair. My hair is still soft shiny and manageable and it doesn't have that dull weird sticky feeling other products usually leave behind. This product helped my hair hold it's style better and I didn't have to use much hairspray at all. I will repurchase this item!

I love love love this stuff! The packaging is adorable and the pump is perfect for the amount of product that you need (one pump for collarbone length hair). The mousse is nice and light on the hair, it doesn't weigh it down if you use the right amount. I love the volume it gives my hair and it just preps your hair for just about anything you could think about doing to it. I got this product super cheap at the Chicago beauty show, but I imagine it would be more expensive retail price, but it's worth it because it lasts forever. I've had it since January, I use it about 4 times a week and I don't see the need to buy another bottle for a while. Oh, by the way, the smell is heavenly, I wish I could bathe in it!
HG volume product alert!!! I've got fine treated hair and I'm always in the haunt of hq volume stuff and this one is just amazing.
It smells heavenly, the packaging is so cute and really easy to use and the product itself works wonders, not kidding.
It's a soufflé texture, and you need just a little amount of product in order to get best results. So soft and light that it's really easy to work with. I've got long hair and it gives me tons of volume that last until next day.
For those worried about the smelling, is just yummy, true lemon cake, but it fades a little when applied so it's not overpowering.
Best styling product I've ever came across what it's too much since I'm a product junkie, a better version of JF luxurious mousse or Tresemme Mega hold in terms of results, and definitely a better alternative to high-end brands. Highly recommended.
UPDATE:Be extremely careful with the amount of product you use, otherwise you'll get dirty and sticky hair. For your consideration, I've got long hair and I use two pumps for the entire head, one for roots and the other for mid-end part.

What first drew me into the Candy Fixations range was the packaging, it is adorable! The next thing that did it for me was the candy smells reviews I heard of all the products in the range. This one is a mousse like formula which smells exactly like lemon meringue, it is delicious! I made the mistake of putting too much through my hair first time but second time I used 2 handfuls throughout my damp below shoulder length hair and it worked done (initially I used too much leaving my hair lank and sticky) but with the right amount, blow drying your hair upside down it gives a gorgeous full amount of volume which is to die for! Also it keeps the style so you can go without finishing with hairspray. I will be buying again!

MADISONVILLE, Ky. (3/20/14) - Lt. William Poe, coordinator of Hopkins County Crime Stoppers, presented an idea to the Hopkins County Board of Education Monday to merge the tip line with the existent online program, STOP, to reduce bullying, violence and drug use in schools.
Poe said that the goal of the partnership is to enhance both programs inside schools helping kindergarten through twelfth grade.
Students, faculty, and employees could log on to a website and be able to anonymously report "anything that smells foul", from bullying to feeling ostracized to drug use, says Poe.
"It's all about protecting our kids," said Tim Thomas, president of Hopkins County Crime Stoppers.
The Madisonville Police Department usually rewards tippers to Crime Stoppers with money, but MPD proposed to instead give funding to Hopkins County Schools.
The program will be voted upon in a future Hopkins County Board of Education meeting.Taylor Riley

DescriptionLady Barbara Manfred ("Babe" to Regency society) was known for her fast ways. Past time for some courageous relative to take her in hand. Lord Clivedon had some interesting ideas for her reclamation--staying with starchy Aunt Graham, the introduction of the sterling (and boring) Lord Ellingwood, instruction from the overbearing Lady Angela, fending off nutty Lord Romeo. But Clivedon couldn't help appreciating Babe's originality... Regency Romance by Joan Smith; originally published by Fawcett Coventry

Around the year 480 BC, an historical battle between a group of Greek city-states and a bullying Persian army began in a mountain pass of Thermopylae (literally translated to "Hot Gateway"). This epic war saw the Greeks vastly outnumbered by the self-appointed god-king Xerxes, who had spent years overthrowing other city-states to build up his human reserve. See, Xerxes is a classy king. He likes to send messengers to each threatening city-state, offering to spare the citizens in exchange for the allegiance to him. Well, when his trusty foot soldier ventured into Sparta, a town known for their militaristic nature and tough, no-bull-shit attitude, their refusal to join up with Xerxes was never heard. Spartan King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) all but told the offending Persians to fuck off and kicked them into a deep hole. Just like Helena before him, this kick ignited the fury of both the Greeks and Persians. Leonidas organizes 300 of Sparta's best men to fight off Xerxes' army, each man wanting the glory of dying in battle to defend their great city. While they're out getting all hot and sweaty in just tiny pairs of war shorts, Queen Gorgo (Lena Headey) remains in Sparta trying to drum up support of the Spartan council to ready troops for war only to prove just how fierce Spartan women are when she's threatened, assaulted, and almost killed by Theron (Dominic West), a senator more interested in power than glory. Two stories diverge in the course of Zach Snyder's […]
Review: HBO's 'Game of Thrones' Celebrates Its Debut With Boobs and Beheadings
Television By Nathan Adams on April 18, 2011 | Comments (33)The newest original series from HBO is a dense tapestry of people and places. It's based on the first chapter of an epic fantasy series referred to as "The Song of Ice and Fire", and the first episode alone introduces us to more characters than you can shake a stick at. Don't let that deter you from putting in the work to follow the series though; HBO has pulled off stuff like this before. It took me three or four episodes of The Wire before I really knew who everyone was and what was going on, and that turned out to be the greatest television show ever produced. Seeing as this one was developed by the same people who gave us the epic, badass series Rome, I would say that Game of Thrones has a lofty task ahead of it, but a better than average chance at becoming a success; especially if it keeps up the quality of the first episode.

Unusually cold and snowy weather dominated headlines last week. In the wake of the frozen onslaught, famed WNC forecaster Ray Russell issued a "death notice" on his long-range prediction for a mild winter.
City snow updates
With temperatures warming and most of the roads clear, here's an update on city parking, transit and facilities.

Buses back on limited routes, some city facilities closed
While most of the snow around town is cleared, forecasts call for more on the way. Many buses are back, albeit on limited, delayed or reduced routes. Some city facilities are closed, and city parking is still free to the public.
Limited bus service resumes, city services reduced, meetings canceled UPDATED 3 PM
As city of Asheville crews begin to plow secondary roads, bus service resumes on limited routes, Many facilities are closed today or working on reduced hours. The Asheville City Council meeting for today is also canceled.

Disintegrating Greenland glacier photographed from space (+video)
A NASA satellite has spotted An iceberg twice the size of Manhattan breaking away from a glacier in northern Greenland.
A process more than a decade in the making reached its climactic moment this week, when a giant iceberg finally broke away from the floating end of a Greenland glacier — and a passing satellite captured the drama on camera.
On Monday, a massive iceberg larger than Manhattan was birthed from the Petermann Glacier, one of the largest in Greenland, and began to float toward the open ocean.
The 46-square-mile (120-square-kilometer) iceberg appeared to make the final break in under two hours, as images from a polar NASA satellite attest.
At approximately 6:25 a.m. local time on Monday (July 16), the massive berg still hugged the glacier's seaward edge. Just an hour and a half later, at around 8 a.m., satellite images reveal that the berg had begun to move northward along the fjord that houses it, toward the Arctic Ocean.
Scientists sifting through years-old satellite data from 2001 first noticed the rift in the glacier's floating forward edge, or ice shelf, several years ago, but it has taken until now for the island of ice to sever itself completely from the glacier that feeds it.
Although the newly-calved berg is admittedly large, it pales in comparison to its most recent predecessor.
In August 2010, a 97-square-mile (251-square-kilometer) chunk of ice broke off from the Petermann Glacier. It was the largest iceberg recorded in the Arctic since 1962.
Scientists had predicted that the most recent iceberg would break away during the warm summer months of 2012.

I agree with the simian. Running naked, that's one thing. Cycling naked? No thanks. It's bad enough if you've ever gotten your jeans caught up in the chain.
Now, how in the hell would you get your pork & beans caught in a bicycle chain?! I think I need a brainwash to get this mental image out....

Turf Talk
It's not as fancy as a flower or as majestic as a tree, but turf is tough and getting tougher—and where would our golf, football and soccer games or our picnics and barbecues be without it?
We walk on it, play on it and snooze on it. Turf helps prevent stormwater runoff, absorbs pollutants, gives off oxygen and helps cool the air. And thanks to the O.J. Noer Turfgrass Research & Education Facility, turf becomes more walkable-, playable- and … uh … snoozeable-on all the time.
Opened in 1992 next to University Ridge Golf Course, the UW–Madison-run Noer facility is dedicated to testing and developing turfgrasses and related management technologies. The Wisconsin Turfgrass Association, comprised of sod growers, golf course superintendants, and landscape and lawn-care business owners, worked with the UW Foundation to raise the money that launched it.
"Before, when association members had problems with certain diseases, they were going out of the state to find answers," explains Tom Schwab, the facility's superintendent. "Researchers had to travel all over the state to set up research, and they wanted a facility close to the UW where they could monitor their research."
Now there are about seventy to ninety studies in progress at a time, he notes, as researchers work to identify practices and turfgrass varieties that require less fertilizer, pesticides and water. "They're looking at things people will need to know in five or ten years as environmental regulations tighten, like practical ways to harvest water from rooftops for lawns and species that can withstand tougher conditions. It's hard to grow grass in the shade, and there are new species that work well, but people don't know how to manage them. So we find out the best, most environmentally friendly ways."
The Noer facility also plays an educational role. Some UW horticulture, soils, entomology and plant pathology classes meet there, and industry groups hold seminars. Puzzled golf course superintendents or other professionals bring samples to its diagnostic lab, and homeowners call with turf-related questions. At annual field days, researchers present their findings and visitors talk with industry suppliers and check out new products and equipment.
The facility works frequently with golf course and athletic field managers. "Our researchers have been on every golf course in the city, if not the state," says Schwab.
A large part of a course's success depends on the turfgrass selection, says Aron Hogden, superintendent at University Ridge Golf Course. "In an area like Madison, where the golf market is very competitive, people have lots of choices. One decision point is the condition of the course."
That's why most golf course superintendents have degrees in turfgrass science or a related field, he says. "Superintendents spend a lot of time learning the best ways to maximize the health of turf. You need to irrigate and fertilize properly, have a well-designed course to withstand a lot of traffic and have good drainage."
The process has gotten pretty sophisticated, and Hogden and other superintendents often turn to the O.J. Noer facility for consultation and the latest research results. One promising study involves the use of velvet bentgrass on putting greens instead of the creeping bentgrass University Ridge and most other area courses use.
"Velvet bentgrass gets virtually no dollar spot, the number-one disease golf courses spray for, and it uses significantly less water than creeping bentgrass," says John Stier, chair of the horticulture department at UW–Madison and a principal investigator at Noer. "We're also looking at different types of turf that require less nitrogen, types that use less water and return more to the ground, and that require fewer fungicides."
The planet benefits, and so does the bottom line. "People who own and manage golf courses don't want to put down any more chemicals or use any more water than they have to," Stier says.
Play Ball
Athletic field managers, too, are looking for practical ways to keep their turf healthy. "Golf courses will close down if it's really wet so the turf doesn't get wrecked. But you never see a Friday night high school football game called for rain, and the fields get destroyed," says Schwab. "Kentucky bluegrass is generally the best playing surface for sports fields, but they often put down perennial ryegrass because it will germinate quickly for the next week's game. It's not the best grass, though."
High schools usually use an "athletic field mixture" of grasses—fifty percent bluegrass and fifty percent ryegrass. "John Stier has found that if you use that much rye, your field will turn into mostly that," Schwab says. "He found that if you really want Kentucky blue to be your surface, you can't have over fifteen percent rye."
Now a plant breeder claims to have developed a faster-germinating Kentucky bluegrass, which would be more useful for sports fields. "We're testing it to see if it works," says Schwab.
Also among the Noer facility's varied turfgrass investigations is one that compared the abilities of turf and rain gardens to limit runoff. The Terry and Kathleen Kurth Distinguished Graduate Fellowship funded the study. "People talk about the deeper roots of prairie plants, but with runoff it's all about the density," says Terry Kurth, owner of lawn care firm Weed Man Madison.
The study found no significant differences in limiting runoff, reports Stier. "Turf has shorter roots than prairie plants, but there are more of them. As each root penetrates the ground, it helps water infiltrate. And the plants are right next to each other, where in prairies it's common to have six to twelve inches between plants."
Either way, vegetation helps filter sediment out of stormwater and increases infiltration. Kurth says homeowners would benefit from having a rain garden with native plants and turf as well as a well-maintained lawn. "People should do their research and take the time to do it right." How about starting with a call to the O.J. Noer facility?

For Body Beautiful's team of cosmetic experts, it?s not enough to simply treat patients? skin, veins, or cellulite. The med-spa?s staff is also focused on helping patients understand the issues they?re facing and how they can be treated most effectively, which is why all patients begin their relationship with the spa with a personal consultation. Only then does Body Beautiful draw on its arsenal of high-tech services, including treatments that include diode-laser hair removal, tattoo removal, and fractional skin resurfacing and rejuvenation designed to minimize skin irritation. The team also uses lasers?along with peels, ultrasound facials, microdermabrasion, and other approaches?to combat acne and spider veins, and its laser toenail fungus removal helps prepare feet for warm-weather footwear. To complement its other technological techniques, Body Beautiful also offers body-contouring wraps, which rely on a mixture of radio frequency, infrared light, fillers and Botox, and teeth whitening.
Styles have changed drastically in the last 25 years, but Your Personal Image Inc. owners Jackie Romano and Lea Ann Rattigan have remained tethered to the present even after a quarter-century of salon ownership. Thus, they're able to approach every client with a vast amount of experience and a fresh eye for current and future trends. Along with their licensed staff of stylists and beauticians, Jackie and Lea Ann offer personal reinvention via cuts, perms, and coloring services that highlight their clients' most flattering features. Skincare specialists approach complexions with similar finesse; they combat acne, wrinkles, and third nostrils with relaxing and revitalizing facials that utilize the powers of vitamin C and collagen masks. With a veritable buffet of makeover options, Your Personal Image Inc. teems with additional treatments that help clients look beautiful and feel confident, including airbrush tanning, mani-pedis, cosmetics, and electrolysis.
Avanti offers a cornucopia of facial services, including the half-hour medical mini facial, which cleanses, steams, and massages your skull-sheath before applying a therapeutic mask tailored to your skin type. The treatment costs $75 by itself, but only $45 if you combine it with another service such as the microdermabrasion ($125), a skin-freshening technique that gently sandblasts the skin with tiny crystals before sucking up the fallen enemy cells with a vacuum. A few microdermabrasion treatments will help facial skin recover from the sun's savage Pesci-like pummeling—staving off the effects of aging in the process by removing fine lines and unwanted pigmentation.
Backed by a quarter-century?s worth of experience, Tracey and her staff at Pittsburgh Permanent Makeup & Laser Center zap away unwanted ink and make skin appear more youthful with paramedical aesthetic services. For tattoo removal, they utilize laser technology in a process that breaks ink particles into tiny fragments for the body to remove naturally. An expert makeup artist applies permanent makeup to brows, lids, and lips, and a certified collagen induction therapist administers collagen-induction therapy, which can reduce or eliminate the appearance of lines stemming from general aging. Their esthetician helps clients solve common and uncommon skin issues.
Laser technician Anna Hilborn helms Opal Rose, which is located within the McDowell Shops. Here, she aims to resolve problematic skin expediently and safely. Stubborn acne is controlled when met with advanced laser treatments. Lasers also gently remove unwanted body hair while entertaining clients with light shows set to the Eagles.
The staff members at Sarah's Spa Sensations focus on the details during their beauty treatments. They customize manicures and pedicures with hand-painted nail art, enhance facials with microdermabrasion treatments, and include a blow-dry and style with every haircut.

I know you're not supposed to get screened till 50 or 40, but what's to stop a 20 or 30 something from getting it??
A friend of mine is going through the whole prostate cancer thing now and he is still in his 30's. But locally he is almost 20 years younger than the next prostate cancer patient.
I know nothing!
I lost my Dad to prostate cancer at the young age of 69. I have been getting a PSA & DRE every year since I was 40. So far so good. If you're over 50 & haven't been checked you're just rollin' the dice.
If Homebrew & BBQ aren't the answer, then you're askin' the wrong questions... Cheers!!!

On one hand if he does step down they get a new leader and can use that momentum to propel them forward. All new product are great because their next deity blessed them. Not to mention the free press!
If he does not step down it shows that Ballmer is in it for the long run and they get tons of free press.
It would behoove them to drag this out as long as possible.
Confidential Business Proposal (242 comments)
Attention: The President/CEO
Dear Sir,
Having consulted with my colleagues and based on the information gathered from the Nigerian Chambers Of Commerce And Industry, I have the privilege to request for your assistance to transfer the sum of $47,500,000.00 (forty seven million, five hundred thousand United States dollars) into your accounts. The above sum resulted from an over-invoiced contract, executed commissioned and paid for about five years (5) ago by a foreign contractor. This action was however intentional and since then the fund has been in a suspense account at The Central Bank Of Nigeria Apex Bank.
We are now ready to transfer the fund overseas and that all you will need to do is download this App from the Android Market Place.
The transfer is risk free on both sides. I am an accountant with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). If you find this proposal acceptable, we shall require a few minor tidbits of information that we will download automatically from your phone and contacts.
(a) your banker's name, telephone, account and fax numbers.
(b) your private telephone and fax numbers -- for confidentiality and easy communication.
(c) your letter-headed paper stamped and signed.
Please reply urgently.
Best regards
Mike "Wingnut" Smith

Re:There is an "All in one Device" (266 comments)
It's a HTPC. So you have to have a a computer to run the Server on. Then it operates in a hub and spoke configuration to feed content to other PCs or Extenders on the network. The server can also be used to broadcast video to your TV too. To get Netflix, Hulu, Amazon VOD, CBS, PBS, and other online content you have to use PlayOn and a free plug-in. But it works well and actually integrates into you recorded TV shows with the plugin.
There is an "All in one Device" (266 comments)
It's called SageTV. Runs on Linux, Windows, MacOS. It will play pratically any format you throw at it and keep chugging. Need to expand to another room well just buy an extender and run it wired or wireless. It is infinitively expandable with plugins and has a strong community of developers and hobbyist to help you along the way. Not to mention the form factor of it's extenders are to work and not be seen.

This seems more like an awareness campaign (163 comments)
Most of the other post talk about how this is not a big deal and in the grand scheme of things it's not but what he is doing is showing the world how venerable your information is on the web and FB. There are tons of people that really just don't understand what it means when you post things like your address, email address, phone number, and full name for the world to see. Take this mix it with your likes and updates of your daily activities and you have a damn good profile for someone to steal your identity.
Think about it, there are family tree applications on FB which is a gate way to getting someone's mother's maiden name. While I think him posting all this information on the web is callous he certainly is taking steps to show the world exactly how venerable you are when you openly participate in sites like this.

Easily cracked and fragile with lots of pressure from below? Why don't we just report pending massive earthquakes and volcanoes "ON THE EARTH" and be done with it?
Re:MythTV rant (214 comments)
If you want a stable & highly configurable software DVR that runs on Linux, Windows, and MacOS; you might want to take a look at SageTV. Sure it's not open-source but it has an affordable price point and is very expandable with both plugins and hardware extenders. You can run it as a standalone server or in a hub-and-spoke configuration. The default GUI leaves a lot to be desired but there are plugins (SageMC) that completely redo the GUI and make it look great!
I don't work for Sage but really enjoy how well it works!

Author's Product Rating: 30 Recommended: Yes
Pros: Fun (for a Camry), pretty good fuel mileageCons: Boring exterior, seats not supportive enough for long tripsThe Bottom Line: Just need cheap and reliable transportation? Camry is a good bet.
It's 2008. I recently just bought a house, the price of fuel is skyrocketing, and coincidentally my little Dakota was involved in a wreck with a one-ton truck. I don't have much cash for a new vehicle. I decide I need to sacrifice the 4wd capability and ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 40 Recommended: Yes
Pros: Reliable. Comfortable. Still going while the others are in the junk yard!!Cons: Can't think of any! No new car smell anymore!!! The Bottom Line: The Camry has a great reputation no matter the year but the '99 is a keeper.
In 2008 I had a 1993 Acura Legend sedan that I'd put 299,877 miles on. I loved it and I never thought I'd ever want another car! When I hit the pothole I had to put her down. I had to find a new car fast and the dealer had a (already ... read more

Pros: the important stuff holds up wellCons: seatbelts, power locks tend to break with age, but that's normalThe Bottom Line: A reliable no-frills car, will get you where you need to go for years.
I've had this car since 2002, and I love it. It's not pretty anymore, but it runs, even though I neglect oil changes. Some parts don't seem so well-made, the power lock on the rear driver side door hasn't worked for years, but the car still drives ... read more

Pros: ReliableCons: Not a "cool" car, but do you actually need one?The Bottom Line: This is the best car if you look for reliability. You will not find a lot of horse powers, but you'll certainly find a good friend to rely upon.
I bought my '99 Camry in 2004 with 78,000 miles on it. Before that I owned Subary Legacy '94 and Taurus '96 and just recently I learned that Ford Taurus is on the 5th place on reliability in JD Power's rating, just behind Camry. My life before ... read more

I am very disappointed with my '99 Camry. I got the car new in the fall of '98 and it now has 40,000 miles. The car has been meticulously maintained but I have still encountered several costly mechanical problems. At about 25,000 miles, the car developed ... read more

About This Project
my first project and I am thrilled with the results. This was a Christmas gift for my daughter and son in law. I wanted something a bit rustic looking so I used inexpensive 'whitewood' and one light coat of stain (Cabernet) that I wiped off right away, then sanded the edges down. I loved using some of the tools my dad has given me.
'whitewood' (cheap grade pine)
From Plan:
Required Skill Level:

Finish Used:
'Cabernet' (Can't recall the brand)
1 light coat and wiped off immediately. I just used what was on the rag to wipe the top board as I did not want it too dark.

SlashGear Evening Wrap-Up: August 17, 2012
Friday has come and gone, which means that the weekend is here once again. The latest iPhone 5 rumors have propelled Apple's stock to its highest point ever, and it turns out the company's funds will go toward helping tap a recently-discovered underground river in Crook County, Oregon. Earlier today we saw a picture of what was reported to be the Samsung Galaxy Note II, but later on in the day Daniel YU informed everyone that it was just his mock-up used without his permission. That's disappointing, but his mock-up looks great, so be sure to check that out.

This is close to asking "How do you sit in the driver's seat?" Everyone has a variation of their favorite hold. Thumbs up, thumbs on safety, thumbs forward, white knuckled, limp wrist, etc... If your hold will allow you to shoot 500 rounds in one day (think a 1 day competition) and your hands do not hurt afterwards, then you have developed the hold for you. If your hand hurts after 10 rounds of .45ACP in the M1911a1, then you are holding it wrong.

I was more curious what grips people here used. Using that grip I'll only start to feel some "fatigue"? in my hands after 100 rnds. I'm still new enough it's trivial for me to change my grip and try different ones.
Extend your arm and have the thumb and forefinger form a "V". Place the handgun centered in the "V" (the idea is to let your arm absorb as much recoil as possible, not parts of the hand.) Have as high of a grip on the handgun as possible (try to form a straight line through the barrel and your forearm). Bring the sights up to you, don't bend your head down to see the sights. Bring your "non-dominant" hand up for support and put the thumbs in close proximity of each other (some people will instinctively try to cross the non-dominant thumb behind the handgun slide. DON'T DO THAT!) Exactly how to hold your thumbs and what works for you is mainly trial and error. My basic hold works on both semi-autos and revolvers for me.
I have a slightly modified traditional hold, the one you're taught in the instructional videos can work if you're new and go from there to what you like. Placing your dominant hand as high on the grip as you can and wrapping your fingers firmly, letting the thumb rest under the safety and wrapping your non-dominant hand's fingers on the "V" between your fingers of your dominant hand to provide a better surface area grip between both of your hands. My non-dominant hand's index finger holds the front fo the trigger gaurd for extra muzzle control. I have large hands so this is easier for me to do than some of the other people I shoot with do.

I'm already surrounded by half-dead brainless people already, the zombie apocalypse would just give me a reason to be productive and get rid of them.
