watch my dust
Also, watch my smoke. See how fast I am, or how quickly I'll succeed. For example, I'm going to turn that investment into my first million, just you watch my dust, or I'll make it, just watch my smoke. The first term alludes to the dust raised by a galloping horse, the second to the smoke generated by an engine. [Colloquial; late 1800s]

Onboard Dynamics, Inc., is a company formed around the natural gas onboard refueling technology being developed by Dr. Chris Hagen, PE, Assistant Professor at Oregon State University. This solution is based on having the natural gas compressor functionality integrated into the vehicle engine itself and would allow vehicle owners to refuel anywhere there is a standard low pressure natural gas supply line at a cost of less than $2.00 per gallon (gasoline equivalent). This capability addresses the current lack of CNG refueling infrastructure found in the United States which underlies the fact that less than 1% of all vehicle owners drive a natural gas vehicle therefore depriving our nation of the economic and environmental benefits of this clean and abundant domestic energy resource.
In October, 2012, Dr. Hagen was awarded an ARPA-E grant in the amount of $700,000 by the Department of Energy (DOE) to develop this technology. The original award has recently been increased by an additional $300,000 by the DOE for continued development. The proof-of-concept of this technology is being built at the Oregon State University (OSU) Engineering Systems Laboratory (ESL) in Bend, Oregon.
On the business front, Onboard Dynamics, Inc. is being led by Ms. Rita Hansen and Dr. Jeff Witwer, PE. Ms. Hansen is an experienced entrepreneur with a technical background specializing in early phase clean tech and alternative energy companies. In addition to being a past adjunct professor, Dr. Witwer has significant experience as a serial entrepreneur from the high tech and energy industries. Ms. Hansen, Dr. Witwer, and Dr. Hagen make up the founders of Onboard Dynamics, Inc.

Laptop Fires On Airplanes
Re:Liquids on planes (560 comments)
The problem I have is that it's not the people who own the planes making the rules. And it's not even necessarily the government of the country in which I'm flying who's originated the rules. There are now so many treaties and inter-country agreements about airline regulation that if the 900lb gorilla in the international civil aviation industry (the US) decides that liquids are bad, then everyone else has play by their rules.

HONG KONG — In his new show at Pearl Lam Galleries in Hong Kong, contemporary Tibetan artist Gonkar Gyatso uses traditional Tibetan landscape themes and iconography, but also tchotchkes, bricolage, cartoon bubbles, and stickies, all of which serve as cheery subterfuge for the dire messages he buries under his techniques.

It's public tax payer money being spent to combat a private company. A company that made the investment in infrastructure and in hiring local people. There really needs to be competition. Maybe deregulation of the incumbant's fiber/coax needs to happen. When it happened to the telcos and all the CLECs popped up it didn't drive the ILECs out of business. It just doesn't seem "fair" to make the incumbant compete against the tax payers.

Congratulations to Taylor Wisneski-Gray, on the acceptance of his paper "Neutralities Much Needed Place in John Dewey's two-part Criterion for Democratic Education". In this paper, Taylor develops and defends proposals for education policies aimed to generate more inclusive social choices, and hence more democratic, diverse social groupings post-graduation. He will be presenting at the North Carolina Philosophical Society 2015 meetings, Feb. 27-28, and North Carolina State University. Well done, Taylor!
Taylor Wisneski-Gray has been accepted to the Kansas Legislative Internship Program. He will be working for Ron Highland, Chair of the Education Committee. Congratulations Taylor!
Congratulations to Taylor Wisneski-Gray for winning an Arts & Sciences Undergraduate Research Scholarship! Taylor will be evaluating arguments for the claim that hat consumers have a right to know about the content of food products, with special reference to GMOs. Taylor will work with Jon Herington on the project, which they describe as follows: "Many people believe that consumers have a "right to know" about the content and traceability of the food they purchase. Historically, the right to know has been used to justify mandatory labeling of products with information relevant to public health (e.g. allergens, nutritional data). In recent years, however, appeals to the right to know have expanded to include a range of environmental and moral concerns (e.g. Organic, GMO labeling, Fair Trade, etc.). We would investigate potential philosophical justifications for the right to know, specifically: (i) whether a philosophical justification for the right can be found in historical or contemporary thinkers (including JS Mill, democratic theory, Rawlsian liberalism), and (ii) whether potential justifications do, or do not, support labeling of food with information not directly related to public health."

We want to congratulateRoss Allen, majoring in both Philosophy and Economics, for winning a Truman Scholarship!
We also congratulate Jonathan Bostrom, majoring in both Philosophy and Anthropology, for his election to Phi Beta Kappa!
Who we are
Our department has strengths in philosophy of science, social and political philosophy, philosophy of language, decision theory, ethics, aesthetics, and philosophy of mathematics. We are an undergraduate-focused department that is also very active in research, giving our students the opportunity to participate in philosophical research while still undergraduates.
We offer a variety of options within the major program to provide flexibility in organizing a course of studies with philosophy at its center. We also offer a minor. Our program in philosophy gives students an understanding of traditional philosophical subjects such as the nature and justification of moral values, religious and scientific explanations of the world, the rationality of social institutions, and the nature of reasoning and argument. It also helps students develop critical habits of thinking and skill in understanding complex issues. Consequently, philosophy is an appropriate subject around which to organize a general education for any purpose. Our majors go to law school, medical school, graduate programs in philosophy and related areas, become ministers, and open their own businesses, and all of them credit our program with preparing them for successful careers.
LSAT, GMAT and GRE scores for philosophy majors rank in the top three nationally virtually every year. Also, philosophy majors have among the highest acceptance rates at law schools and medical schools each year. For instance, K-State philosophy majors over the last twenty years have had an acceptance rate at law schools of over 96%.

Weekend of the River
We met our son and his girlfriend from Chicago for a long weekend. It's about a four hour drive for each of us so just perfect. The cabin was a bit hard to find, but using our phone navigation system we were able to find it. The cabin was very clean and just what we were looking for. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking. We cooked a couple of meals so having the outdoor grill was nice.
Beautiful setting and very peaceful. Easy to get to the casino and to all the activities in the Dells. Thanks! Highly recommend.
Perfect Getaway
This cottage is the perfect escape for those Chicagoans looking for some quality down time but who aren't up for a long road trip or airlines. Sitting just a tad past the Illinois-Wisconsin border, the trip was under two hours for us (departing from Schaumburg IL).
The owner keeps the cottage extremely tidy and one cannot help but feel a sense of home on entering. It has all the feature comforts of a full blown house: laundry room, full kitchen with oven, microwave, cooking utensils, etc. There is a flat screen TV and small stereo system. The bathroom is stocked with linens and towels.
The lake tends to bustle during the day but the neighborhood was very peaceful at night. The fire pit was great to use during the cool nights we were there.
There is a full sized grocery store within minutes of the place (so it is easy and convenient to stock up for the afternoon barbeque). Downtown Waterford is also very close by. It's a small town but there are a number of restaurants for those nights one wants to head out.
I would say the cabin is ideal for a couple's getaway. We were very charmed by the cottage and would definitely go there again. The owner has done an excellent job in making it feel like a home away from home. There is not a sterile, bland feeling one would get from a hotel or generic furnished place. We highly recommend this property to couples and families with young children.

Singing Stones
Quest Name | Singing Stones |
Region | Transylvania |
Zone | Shadowy Forest |
Quest Giver/Location | Iele |
Quest Type | Investigation Mission |
Summary | Iele has an ancient song that resonates with standing stones throughout the forest. Perhaps if you learned the song of stones you could follow this pagan trail, and find what it once signified. |
XP Reward | 888,880 |
Currency/Rewards | 20,000 Pax Romana; 4 Sequins of Transylvania |
Tier 1: Draw the Iele's melody from the stone
After interacting with the stone beside the Iele, you will gain the melody in your inventory. After you use the item in your inventory, you will see beacons light up throughout the forest. The locations follow:
- 1st: (880, 661)
- 2nd: (921,681)
- 3rd: (937 , 639)
- 4th: (962 , 591)
- 5th: (1007 , 620)
- Final: (1037,617)
Tier 2: Use the Iele's melody to rouse the stone circle
Orient yourself in the same way as the picture below, then activate the stones in the following order:
- Lower left
- Lower right
- Upper right
- Upper left
- Lower left
- Upper left
- Upper right
- Lower right
- Lower left
- Lower right
- Upper right
You need to do this rather quickly, so be as fast as possible.
This quest is currently bugged at this tier and cannot be completed.

A very comfortable and large 1 bedroom apartment .
My Husband and I stayed at this property for one month in October 2014.
The apartment felt homey, has a large bedroom with a King Bed and good storage, a Living Room furnished with comfortable furniture, a nice size Dining room and functional kitchen in addition to 1 1/2 half bath.
The location is close to everything, transportation, grocery stores, restaurants and all the attractions that NYC has to offer.
We hope to return next year.
The Perfect Location
My wife & I, plus her sister & husband, spent a most enjoyable four days in this lovely apartment. Although I have been to Manhattan many times before for business and pleasure, I was not aware that such a fantastic neighborhood as Yorkville existed. Everything you may need, from grocery stores, wine shops and a fantastic selection of affordable restaurants and carry-outs, is within easy walking distance. Plus, the scenic walkway along the East River and Carl Schurz Park is not to be missed. The nighttime view of the lighted buildings and bridges is gorgeous, and the entire area felt very safe day and night, with local residents and families strolling about at all hours. And it doesn't hurt that New York's mayor is a neighbor at nearby Gracie Mansion! Yorkville seems more like a small town, than a part of the New York metropolis. Yet the Metropolitan Museum and Central Park are within just a few blocks walking distance. The apartment was very comfortable for two couples, complete with a well equipped kitchen, and being able to enjoy quiet time in an actual back yard in New York was a rare treat. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting New York.
Our recent trip to NYC was made perfect by our choice to stay at this charming property. What a delightful home complete with comfortable furnishings, everything one could need for their stay, a little slice of "country" in the beautiful garden, and homemade cake upon arrival!! Wait, did I mention that there are two full baths in this apartment?!? You will find the home clean, well maintained, filled with lovely pieces, and sprinkled with whimsy. Oh, my…who could ask for more?!?!
The apartment is centrally located within a short walk to Starbucks, a grocery/convenience store, a laundry service, the subway, and quaint eateries to meet the taste of virtually everyone. We loved walking about the neighborhood and having a sense of really being a part of the city, versus simply a guest at a hotel.
Should you continue to have a doubt about booking this property, let me simply say that you will not find a more welcoming hostess!!! Joan greeted us upon our arrival (which was quite late at night!!) with the warmth of a long lost friend. Her grace, charm, and humor will make you feel as if you have known her your entire life. All the while, Joan is absolutely professional in all correspondences, answers questions in a very timely fashion, and makes every attempt to ensure your stay is all that you could wish for….
We will be back ~ frankly, I sorely wish we did not have to leave!!!!

Aftering read about remineralization via sea salts, I decided I will try a trial foliar spraying w/ diluted Himalayan pink salt. It's $2.99/lb at my local Sprouts. Sea90 recommends 1 teaspoon/gal of water, so I'm going with a weaker solution of 2 teaspoons Himalayan pink salt/5 gal water. Himalayan pink salt has over 80+ trace elements, which are supposed to be beneficial to both plants and the human body. I'll update if all my fruit trees & veggies have kicked the bucket or not. BTW, I also made my own sole (pronounced sol-lay), a concentrate of Hinalayan pink salt & water. In the morning, I take a teaspoon put in 1 glass of water. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I've heard that they're good for health, but I don't know how so. It's good to that they contain 80+ trace elements. I bought some mainly because the color look so pretty in the bottle ... lol. You've just started my curiosity to find out more about its healthy benefits. I didn't know that it will be good for plants also. So, how long have you been taking your sol-lay? Have you found any difference healthwise after taking it? Here's a picture showing the different shades of pink they come in, although I don't know if the third bottle from the left is truly the Himalayan salt. I didn't find the info on the label. |
So far, so good. I've foliar sprayed 3 x, soil drenched once. No dead plants yet ;) I've also top-dressed with Azomite, as well |
So far everything seems to be thriving. Diluted urine is universally accepted as a great fertilizer. Funny thing is, is that it has about double the salt content of seasalt. Naysayers tell me I'm killing my plants with salt, yet advocate using urine which has double the amount |

The acetaminophen in the Norco can be toxic to your liver, they keep dropping the maximum daily dose that they consider safe. I got off of it entirely several years ago due to that.
I am not sure what you mean by chronic fractures? Are you a smoker? Why don't they heal? I am not sure that an MRI would show old, healed fractures as being different than "chronic" ones?

The federal agencies do not have a dosage level for opiates when prescribed by pcps to my knowledge. Where did you get this info, please post a link if you have one?
This sounds more like what poorly informed doctors tell their patients rather than just saying they don't feel right about increasing a dose. It is frequently blamed on the FDA or some other federal agency. It is my understanding that if a doctor sees his patients regularly, and documents their cases properly, there is little to worry about with federal agencies. Some doctors either don't want to take the time to do that, or are not given the time by their employers.

Since I stopped working, I have volunteered tutoring reading to adults, helping check in books on the computer at the local library, at a food bank, nine years twice a week at a free clinic as a nurse, now at the animal shelter once a week taking adoptable dogs outside for a bit.
Everyone can find something to do. One community I lived in even had a program for the housebound. They would call each other once a day to make sure they were okay. Kids at schools need tutoring. Reading at the library to kids is easy to do once a week for most folks. If you are of a religious bent, check at your house of worship. Just do it!

One of the most interesting points to be covered in the trial is how Duffy campaigned for 11 Harper Party mp's, including Armstrong, while billing the senate. This brings the very legitimacy of these 11 mp's into question. How much was billed to the senate when it should have been a campaign expense? Do we have 11 more Peter Peneshue's?

Harper had Mike Duffy come to truro to help ccmv mp scott armstrong get elected.....only cost armstrongs campaign a room and a meal, cost canadian taxpayers thousands of dollars.....Armstrong is all good with that, he is, he's said so in previous TDN stories.....

Council researches taking Weilgus property, residents weigh-inJune 27, 2014 |
By Carley Dangona On June 18, Superior Court Judge Richard Carey ruled that Zoning Board of Appeals correctly awarded the city a special permit for the use of a setback easement of the Ashley Street School Project. The plaintiffs in the case were Ernest Simmons, Elizabeth Simmons and Thomas Smith. The defendants were Michael Parent, Fontaine Velis, Martin Newman, Lynn Boscher, Alvin See (ZBA), the city of Westfield and Mayor Daniel Knapik. During the past two regular meeting of the council, residents on both sides of the issue voiced their opinions during the Public Participation portion of the agenda. At the June 19 meeting, a hearing was conducted, affording the property owners an opportunity to speak. The lawyer representing the Weilgus family declined to speak. Testimonies fell on one side or the other; there was no middle ground. Supporters cited unsafe and deteriorating school facilities and infrastructure as reason to take the Weilgus property to move the project forward. Those against the motion opposed the idea of taking the land to fix a problem created by the methods the city used to start the project. Jeanine Braceland said, "Frankly, I am sickened by the fact that this beautiful and important school has not been already built. I sincerely cannot understand how building a beautiful state-of-the-art building can be a problem. Do we not want the best for our children?" Katherine Zavras-Bentrewicz said, "It doesn't matter how we got to this point, the fact is we're here now – that's another fact. It doesn't matter what happened in the past. We're here and we need to move forward now as a city, as a community. That's the end of it." Mary Ann Babinski, a resident and former educator, said, "I think it really does matter how we got to this point. I worry about how we got to this point; how we get so many projects in this city that pits groups, neighborhoods, against one another. I have been in the same position a lot of the people that teach in Westfield have been in – fighting for kids, hoping you do the right thing for them, hoping you get them to understand what is right thing to do and grow up and realizing that you don't take advantage of other people." Babinski continued, "What are we teaching these children? It's all right, because if you want something, no matter what it is, get it whichever way you can, even if you have to steal something from somebody to do that. This is not the right way to do it. It doesn't make it right. We're teaching kids that if you want something you can break the rules, you can bend the rules, you don't have to play by the rules – if you want it, go take it. Go take it from an elderly woman who's had this land for a long time." After months of inactivity, the National Park Service (NPS) declared its support for the conversion of Cross Street Playground in November 2013. In a letter dated Nov. 18, 2013 the NPS stated, "The 46-acre replacement site is known as the Weilgus Property and is located approximately one-quarter of a mile from the converted parkland. The replacement site is of greater fair market value than the converted parkland and is of equal recreational usefulness and location." The mayor attributed part of the delay to the temporary government shutdown and sequestration. On Sept. 7, 2012 the city hosted a groundbreaking for the site. In preparation for construction, Cross Street Playground was cleared and the former Ashley Street School was demolished. The site remained under temporary injunction while the National Parks Service (NPS) ruled on whether the Article 97 requirement had been satisfied for the use of Cross Street Playground as part of the new 600-student elementary school site, initially anticipated to open in September 2014. The injunction was implemented Sept. 18, 2012. In March of 2013, the city submitted its environmental assessment of the playground, which is protected by the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act, to the NPS. In April of 2013, during the public comment period of the assessment Alice Wielgus, owner of the property at 146-150 Main St., submitted a letter stating that her land, which was named as a replacement site in the environmental assessment to accommodate the conversion of the Cross Street Playground, was not for sale. In the approval letter, the NPS cited a condition for the conversion of the Wielgus property "The city of Westfield will conduct a Phase 1 archeological survey prior to any ground disturbing development at the replacement site. Additionally, no ground-disturbing activities can take place on the replacement site until the Phase 1 archeological survey and proposed construction has been reviewed by the State Historic Preservation Officer in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966." The restriction was imparted because the property "contains two ancient Native American archeological sites that are recorded in the Massachusetts Historical Commission's Inventory of Historic and Archeological Assets of the Commonwealth, but do not meet the Criteria of Eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places," according to the NPS. To date, the city has not released details regarding the archeological survey. |

For now, he has reason to smile. But does Nitish model need rescuing from Nitish?
Lok Sabha polls weren't about Nitish but bypolls are, voters say. However, tie-up with Lalu is a problem.
Nitish-Lalu-Congress campaign's message and hype are all about uniting the forces of "samajik nyaya (social justice)" and "secularism" to combat Modi.

Now, the young party is roiled by yet more internal disturbance and this time it is playing out in the open.

In SP bastion, BSP banks on Muslim unease but finds Jatavs swayed by Modi story.

By Brent Lang, TheWrap.com
Ben Gazzara died Friday of pancreatic cancer, The New York Times reported.?
The star of award films and plays such as "Anatomy of a Murder" and "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" was 81 years old.
Gazzara employed his distinctive, guttural voice and powerful stare most memorably in a series of film collaborations with the director?John Cassavetes. For the maverick director, Gazzara played a collection of bitter spouses and down-on-their heels gamblers and directors in films such as "The Killing of a Chinese Bookie" and "Opening Night."?
For the maverick director, Gazzara played a collection of bitter spouses and down-on-their heels gamblers and theater directors in films such as "The Killing of a Chinese Bookie" and "Opening Night."?
More from TheWrap: Super Bowl pregame: Feds seize, arrest online sporting-event pirates
Like Peter Falk, his co-star in Cassavetes' "Husbands," Gazzara was perfectly suited to the director's signature examinations of bruised men who struggle to articulate and come to grips with their emotions, fears and hopes in a rapidly changing world.?
Fittingly, he died the same day that Cassavetes did more than twenty years ago.?
Among his other notable film roles were an accused rapist in "Anatomy of a Murder" (1959), the smooth-talking pornographer Jackie Treehorn in the Coen Brothers' "The Big Lebowski" (1998), and a grandfather separating from his wife of 40 years in Todd Solondz's "Happiness"(1998).?
More from TheWrap: Tony Oller offered starring role in 'Vigilandia'
Less successful was his starring role opposite his then-lover Audrey Hepburn in Peter Bogdanovich's "They All Laughed" (1981). The romantic comedy was a box office and critical disaster.
As for "Roadhouse" (1989), the critics hated the Patrick Swayze action movie too, but thanks to frequent television play, Gazarra's role as villainous businessman became a cult favorite.?
On stage, Gazzara originated the role of the alcoholic, sexually confused Brick in Tennessee Williams' "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." It helped make his name, but he saw the role go to Paul Newman in the 1958 film adaptation.
Even after Hollywood beckoned, Gazzara was comfortable migrating from stage to screen, making frequent appearances on Broadway. He was nominated for three Tony awards for playing a drug addict in "A Hatful of Rain,"?for doing double duty in two short plays Eugene O?Neill?s ?Hughie? and David Scott Milton?s ?Duet," and for playing the alcoholic George in a revival of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf."
More from TheWrap: 'Glee' sidelined for two months
His last Broadway role came in 2006′s acclaimed revival of the social protest drama "Awake and Sing!"
Gazzara's performance in HBO's "Hysterical Blindness" earned him his first Emmy award in 2006. He also ?earned plaudits for his starring role in the TV movie, "An Early Frost" (1985), one of the first nationally broadcast works to deal with the AIDS crisis.?
Gazzara was married three times to Louise Erickson (1951?1957), actress Janice Rule (1961?1979), and German model Elke Stuckmann.
He his survived by Stuckmann, their daughter, and an adopted daughter. Gazarra's brother, Anthony, also survives him.?

Aug 18, 2014 11:45 AM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
GENEVA (AP) - The U.N. health agency is urging Ebola-affected countries to start screening all passengers leaving international airports, sea ports and major ground crossings.
The World Health Organization says the risk of the Ebola virus being transmitted during air travel is low but anyone with an illness consistent with the virus should not be allowed to travel unless it is part of an appropriate medical evacuation.
In a statement Monday the WHO said even countries unaffected by the Ebola outbreak in West Africa need to strengthen their ability to detect and immediately contain new cases without doing anything that unnecessarily interferes with international travel or trade.
But it said countries don't need to impose travel restrictions and active screening of passengers if they do not share borders with Ebola-affected countries.

What else is there to carry?
This is a discussion on 1911 carry within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; What else is there to carry?...
Yes I carry a 1911 24/7
No I don't trust them for SD carry
What else is there to carry?
Ahhh, what an awful dream. Ones and zeros everywhere... and I thought I saw a two.
1911 has been my primary/daily carry since 2000. No problems yet.
My daily carry is a Kimber Pro-Carry II
My "old faithful" is a Colt MarkIV Series 70. I'll trust the reliability of this pistol over any firearm I've ever owned to date and probably ever will. It's flawless.
The only problems ever encountered with it which caused failures:
- The original 25 year old(approx) springs finally just gave up the ghost. This was within the first month of ownership and I was not the first owner. I subsequently replaced all the springs, slide stop, etc.. and have never had a problem with the pistol itself since.
- Fubar Magazines - in other words, not a failure of the pistol.

"Sure, As long as the machines are workin' and you can call 911. But you take those things away, you throw people in the dark, and you scare the crap out of them; no more rules...You'll see how primitive they can get."
This thread is pretty much based on a totally false premise that has been made by two "gun experts" who obviously have no idea what words are exiting from their respective mouths.
AKA ~ "They went on to tell me you shouldn't carry a 1911 they are not reliable and you can't count on them to work when you need them."
Sorry....BUT, you are totally incorrect you two "armchair gun experts at the range" - the Colt 1911 has been heralded for a full century as being one of the most reliable and least problematic semi-automatic handguns that has ever been manufactured as well as being one that will continue to function in the worst possible conditions & environments.
Liberty Over Tyranny Μολὼν λαβέ
I have a Sig 1911 RCS that I carry often. Normally I carry a CZ P-06. It's not a trust issue with the 1911. I just prefer having 25 rounds available to me when I carry the gun and 1 spare mag, versus having 15 rounds when I carry the 1911 plus 1 spare mag.
I didn't vote since the choice are too limited. As myself and others have said, it's not a trust thing.
Last edited by archer51; February 8th, 2009 at 11:44 AM. Reason: added thought
C: I'd trust a good 1911 but I think there are better choices out there.
I didn't vote on this one, although my favorite CCW is my 1911A. I just don't carry it 24/7!!! When I go to bed it is on my night stand, closest to me, and just a few inches away from my light, and shorty!
Y'all be safe now, ya hear!

You like yours, it works for you, doesn't matter what other opinions are. I've tried a bunch of different weapons. Some better, some worse, I keep coming back to something I'm comfortable with(1911), heavier than some more hi-tech guns, but I shoot it much more consistently. Feels good in my hand.

"Terrorists: They hated you yesterday, they hate you today, and they will hate you tomorrow. End the cycle of hatred, dont give them a tomorrow."
This is just like a good soap!
I went back out to the range today and guess what?
One of the guys were out there and he was shooting a brand new Taurus PT 1911!!!!!
I looked at him and smiled he just laughed said Don't say a [Edited] word.
SO I didn't but he had a much better shoot today!
Funny I thought.
I shot his PT1911 it felt pretty good I wouldn't be interested in one but not bad. Pretty accurate at 7 yards.
He took a few shots with my Springer and the kimber he said I gotta me one of these (Kimber)
Looks like I got the 1911 bug to catch him!

Yes I trust my 1911's for self defense but I also carry my Sig P220 when I want to change things up.I use the same type of holster for both(Versa MaxII)and also place it in the same spot(4:30).1911's RULE
Have Fun and Shoot Straight !!
I carry a S&W 1911 and literally stake my life on it. I have never had any problems with it not going bang when I pull the trigger. As far as carrying it 24/7, my wife won't let me wear it in bed.
Its a shame that youth is wasted on the young.
I have one 1911 I just don't use it as a carry pistol that often because it's too
heavy for me !
1911s have gotten a bum deal for a variety of reasons....some even justified.
Remember when the US military adopted the Beretta? One of the reasons was that the current 1911s in the military's possession were worn out from years & years & years & years of service. I know the ones we used were old & rattled when you would shake them....however, they went BANG EVERYTIME! (maybe not very accurate, but that was due to wear.) That was one reason Beretta's replaced the 1911. (Isn't is ironic that some units are now using 1911s again!)
Another thing that gives 1911s a bad rep, is the shooter's desire to have 'custom' tuning, 'custom' parts & 'custom' finishes. In some cases a LOT of work needed to be done to make them reliable & accurate. (I guilty of this....I have a bunch of 1911s & the ones I carry have ALL had extensive work done to them....to make them 'perfect'...at least for me.) It's just like buying a pickup truck....some guys want to add high performance goodies or bits of chrome....just so that it makes it 'better' or 'faster'.
A further headache for 1911s, are bad magazines. I've seen a lot of people that blamed the 1911, when the problem was a defective magazine.
As far as reliability of 1911s, there are a lot of worse guns out of the box.....I don't trust ANY gun until it has proved itself by functioning for me! I like the ability of the 1911 platform to be improved upon, if you desire. You can do so much more, as far as customizing & tuning, than any other handgun platform. It's just like the 'evil black rifle'.....you can have it any way you want it!
I guarantee the 1911 will be with us for a long, long, long time to come.....(If BO & his crew of antis, don't force-ably take them.)
Quemadmodum gladius neminem occidit, occidentis telum est.-Seneca
"If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid. If I have a gun, what do I have to be paranoid about?" -Clint Smith
"An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it." -Jeff Cooper
I used to, back when I first got my CCL. However, I looked for another gun for EDC as the 1911 was an heirloom, and I couldn't bear having it taken away...
With that said, I'd love to have a 1911 for EDC, again. 1911's have always felt comfortable in my hand(s) - more so than other guns, even. I even think I shoot better with them. [snicker] However, I don't know where to start, and until I can take even MORE time to research all the makers and models, I'll make due with my revolver.
I have a 1911 I would trust for CCW, but I don't because of the weight.

While its a risk, I see little reason why the Daemon, if it wishes to not be weaponized, would not use its abilities to its fullest. Notably, Resist Psy and Strong-minded are not found on a Great Unclean one or most other daemons. The Daemonic mastery test is certainly psy/sorcery in nature, as you get to add +5 x psy rating to the mastery test, and Page 229 notes that the ritual IS modified by the target's Daemonic Presence "and other pertinent factors".
Its true that skill mastery lets you "not roll", but opposed tests go by how many DoS/DoF you have over the other, so at least we should be verifying the LoC's own, for purposes of the difference between the two. This is where strong-minded and their effective Psy Rating 9[so +45] would come in handy.
Tables aside, which in the case of summoning/binding, 201 and 229 state at the top of the tables that their maximums are +/- 60 outright rather than only implying, there's 241.
Page 241, though in the combat chapter, states: "If a situation calls for two or more bonuses or penalties, simply combine all modifiers together and apply the total to the appropriate Characteristic. The maximum total bonus that can be applied to a test is +60. Conversely, the maximum total penalty that can be applied to a test is –60. When adjudicating difficulty, common sense should prevail. Regardless of the usual limits on test penalties, some actions are simply impossible"
Personally, I'm just trying to figure out if everything went fubar for the daemon's rolls[very unlikely but certainly possible; anyone can roll a 100 sometimes, even two despite dumping infamy on there], or if the player was just led to believe that was the case.

POSTED: Monday, November 14, 2011 - 1:00pm
UPDATED: Monday, November 14, 2011 - 1:19pm
NBC NATIONAL NEWS — November 11th is a day that's been hyped up to be one full of luck.
That proved to be the case when the clock struck 11:11 at Texas' Abilene Regional Medical Center.
That's when Kobe Lamar Francis came into the world.
"No one will forget it. His birthday," said mother Latoshia Francis.
"We're like 'hurry hurry hurry!' you know, trying to get it done by 11:11, and we got it done by seconds!" said nurse Amanda Shirley.
"It feels pretty good, a new edition to the family," added Keon Francis, Kobe's Father.
At 10 pounds, 4 ounces, Kobe is the fourth child of parents Latoshia and Keon Francis, who were not expecting their C-section delivery to come right at the time it did.
It was the nurses who were secretly hoping to deliver in the lucky moment.
"We had three C-sections today and usually we don't get three done before noon, so I didn't think it was going to happen," said Shirley. "But all of us nurses did good teamwork and made it happen. Even the doctor didn't think it would happen. We called him from his office and said 'we're in the OR, we're ready!"

I'm debating between a couple of builds... 1#: Boots, Rylai's, Tear, Void Staff, Deathcap, Will of the Ancients (This build is nice because I can spam spells but I feel like I'm not taking full advantage of the tear without the Rod of Ages) 2#: Boots, Rod of Ages, Rylai's, Void Staff, Deathcap, Will of the Ancients (This build gives the most health but I can't spam as much...) 3#: Boots, Rod of Ages, Tear, Void Staff, Deathcap, Spellvamp (This build takes full advantage of the tear but unfortunately I lose the passive slow from Rylai's)
Out of those builds, #2. Brand doesn't really need tear if you are smart with his spells. Personally, I think the build from Phreak's Spotlight is pretty good and the Catalyst in it gives you the needed mana while leveling up to harass, especially if you are good at last hitting with him.
Probly number 2.
I always grab tear right away on Brand. That way I can spam skills for harass and farming. I usually build this order: Meki -> Boots of Quickness -> Tear -> Sorc Boots -> Rylais -> Deathcap -> Archangel's ->Situational
I'd rather take the catalyst because it gives you increased mana and the regen on level up. By the time your tear is built up and such you have reached the point where you probably aren't laning much anymore. Also, the catalyst will give you the early hp advantage and can transition to a RoA later if you want to go that way. You don't need to constantly spam with brand to wear down their hp. Putting equal points in your 'E' and 'W' early gives the front loaded damage from the 'E' + the awesome passive dot. It wears people down or they stay away. If they are having to stay away and not farm they are getting nerfed. Just last hit and harass with the e, then, when you think you have them low enough go in for the kill. I used to carry tear on Brand for early spamming, but after getting my *** handed to me a Brand who knew what he was doing I talked with him after the game and he showed me the light.
Build 2 by far. You do not want Tear on Brand. If you need some extra mana regeneration look towards DFG/Morellos Tome, DFG in particular adds to your burst potential. See this brand guide: http://www.squidoo.com/league-of-legends-brand-guide
I really dont understand why you dont want tear on brand. I love being able to spam my spells at will and farm like a monster without worrying about being caught in a situation where I have no mana (and am essentially useless).

22 Signs You May Be Addicted To 'The Walking Dead'
The Walking Dead is alive! The show returns this Sunday night to finally fill that zombie void in your life. Where did we leave off? Spoiler alert starts now!
Oh yes, one of the main characters is dead and finally the Governor got what had long been coming to him (applause for Michonne). Now with everyone split, it's back on the road for Rick, Daryl, and the rest of the group. You know what that means: More zombie attacks!
Do you think about such zombie apocalypse on a daily basis? Would you faint if you saw Norman Reedus in person? Then you might be addicted to The Walking Dead. Here are more signs you've been bit:
1. Two words: Norman Reedus. All day, every day:
2. If they ever kill off Daryl, you will boycott the show:
3. Especially if Carl outlives Daryl. Shut up, Carl.
4. You still hate Lori because every time her name is mentioned you are reminded of her awfulness. You pray you never have to befriend a Lori:
5. October used to be your favorite month because of Halloween, however you now count down the days till The Walking Dead premieres in October:
6. Although, you are sure to find a dude on Halloween dressed up as Rick Grimes, and when you do, you just can't resist:
7. You have never been more prepared for the zombie apocalypse:
8. In fact, you've had multiple in-depth conversations with your friends about where you would hide out and who would be in your post-apocalyptic group:
9. Somehow you try to relate all your life experiences to things that have happened on The Walking Dead:
10. "Things … and stuff" has become one of your regular phrases and it drives your friends nuts:
11. Emotionally, you've reached a place where you would kill a walker without even hesitating:
12. Sometimes you wonder if Daryl is ever going to run out of crossbow arrows:
13. Even missing an episode of Talking Dead upsets you:
14. You consider the episode a bust when walkers don't somehow invade the prison:
15. There are few characters that you genuinely like, which is why you barely cared when Shane, Merle and Dale died:
16. However, when they killed Hershel, you couldn't help but feel like they were killing one of your family members:
17. You absolutely despise people who refer to Rick Grimes as "that guy from Love Actually":
18. You've legitimately thought about how you would date during an apocalypse:
19. When they alluded to the fact that there may be a relationship between Daryl and Carol:
20. Sometimes the show is a little too violent for you, but you can't look away:
21. Seriously, Carl sucks:
22. And here's a gif of Daryl Dixon holding a baby, in his perfectly sculpted arms:

Arizona State Sun Devils
Sutton gets 10th All-American selection
The accolades keep on coming in for Arizona State defensive tackle Will Sutton.
A junior from Corona, California, Sutton was awarded his 10th All-American selection when he was named a Phil Steele Postseason Second Team.
There were few defensive players in the country as dominant as Sutton in 2012.
After recording 58 total tackles (20 for loss), 10.5 sacks and three forced fumbles, Sutton was named the Pat Tillman Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year.
Sutton and the Sun Devils return to action on December 29 in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl when they take on the Navy Midshipmen.
The bowl game could be Sutton's last as a Sun Devil.
The junior is expected to announce whether he will return for his senior season or declare for the NFL draft sometime after the team's showdown with Navy.

I was in Beijing last week for Aviation Expo China and on my last day at the show I was lucky enough to to meet the people at Antonov.
What amazes me about Antonov is that this company builds so many different aircraft types and, unlike other aircraft-makers that take nearly 10 years to get an aircraft to market, Antonov appear to be quick to the mark.
They are already producing a 70-80 seat regional jet, the An-148, and when I was in Beijing I was lucky enough to stumble across a story about Antonov starting construction of a new 99-seat regional jet, the An-158. This larger regional jet is due to have its first flight next year.
If it had been any other aircraft-maker we would have heard about this story months ago but Antonov seem to be more focused on building aircraft, than generating hype.
But I really do feel Antonov should do more to promote themselves. The Canadians and Japanese are out there selling aircraft that are still in the very early stages of development. The Ukrainians, meanwhile, are actually building the aircraft. They just lack the customers.
There's no reason why the An-148 and An-158 can't be selling better. Based on the product specifications I saw in Beijing. These aircraft are technologically advanced.

The Yukon is best purchased by drivers who have concrete need for its extreme abilities --nine-place seating, ox-like tow ability, off-road skills--and will put them to task in combination. For solely suburban family-commuter duties, there are more refined, affordable, and efficient vehicles available. The price for indulging a Napoleon complex in purchasing more SUV than needed will inevitably be paid at the pump and through inconvenience when parking. That said, the Yukon and Yukon XL both fulfill their missions well. The feature-rich interior will appeal to buyers looking to step up from a more mainstream vehicle, or even making the transition from a well-appointed car.
The large cabin works well for large family members, with power-adjustable pedals and running boards to accommodate those of more modest stature. Fuel economy climbs one notch for 2005, though the thirst with any full-size SUV is inescapable. The appeal of a GMC over a Chevrolet is in tangible feature benefits, as well as the prestige halo, though bargain shoppers would do well to compare vehicles between the brands. IntelliChoice's data show that the Tahoe, Suburban, and Yukon offer Excellent values across their model ranges, with limited exceptions.
The handsomely appointed GMC Yukon and Yukon XL offer feature-rich alternatives to mainstream-branded SUVs, matching their seating capacity, tow ability, and performance, but doing so with an extra measure of style.
What's Hot
What's Not
Fuel economy has improved by one mpg thanks to subtle aerodynamics changes and move to an all-electric cooling system. Once optional, StabiliTrak is standard at all trim levels. A touch-screen, DVD-based navigation system is now available.
The Yukon offers numerous a la cart options, though the best buys are those bundled in option packages. For the ultimate towing power, the 3/4-ton Yukon can pull up to 12,000 pounds. Kids will love the available DVD player with a flip-down monitor and inputs for a video game system.

Hospital Emergency Departments:
Crowded Conditions Vary among Hospitals and Communities
GAO-03-460: Published: Mar 14, 2003. Publicly Released: Mar 28, 2003.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
Hospital emergency departments are a major part of the nation's health care safety net. Emergency departments report being under increasing pressure, with the number of visits nationwide increasing from an estimated 95 million in 1997 to an estimated 108 million in 2000. GAO was asked to provide information on emergency department crowding, including the extent hospitals located in metropolitan areas are experiencing crowding, the factors contributing to crowding, and the actions hospitals and communities have taken to address crowding. To conduct this work, GAO surveyed over 2,000 hospitals and about 74 percent responded. The survey collected information on crowding, such as data on diversion--that is, the extent to which hospitals asked ambulances that would normally bring patients to their hospitals to go instead to other hospitals that were presumably less crowded.
While many emergency departments across the country reported some degree of crowding, the problem is more pronounced in certain hospitals and communities. For example, while 2 of every 3 hospitals reported asking ambulances to be diverted to other hospitals at some point in fiscal year 2001, a smaller portion--about 1 of every 10--reported being on diversion status for more than 20 percent of the year. Hospitals in areas with larger populations, areas with high population growth in recent years, and areas with higher-than-average percentages of people without health insurance reported higher levels of crowding. While no single factor stands out as the reason why crowding occurs, GAO found the factor most commonly associated with crowding was the inability to transfer emergency patients to inpatient beds once a decision had been made to admit them as hospital patients rather than to treat and release them. When patients "board" in the emergency department due to the inability to transfer them elsewhere, the space, staff, and other resources available to treat new emergency patients are diminished. Hospitals and communities reported a variety of actions to address crowding, including expanding their emergency departments and developing ways to transfer emergency patients to inpatient beds more efficiently. For the most part, these actions have not been extensively evaluated, so their effect is unknown. However, the widely varying characteristics between hospitals mean that no one approach is likely to emerge as a way to address this ongoing concern. Representatives from the American College of Emergency Physicians and the American Hospital Association and an independent reviewer provided comments on a draft of this report, which we incorporated as appropriate.
