You call that "common-sense gun safety legislation"?
Posted By DP Opinion On July 18, 2013 @ 5:48 pm In Letters | 21 Comments
Re: "Are legislature and Gov. Hickenlooper in touch with rural Colorado? [1]" July 13 letters to the editor.
In her letter, state Rep. Crisanta Duran draws an absurd comparison between bird hunting and firearm ownership for self defense and home defense, stating that we accord stronger protections to pheasants than human beings. Now, I've never heard of anyone being attacked by a flock of armed pheasants, but a home invasion by multiple armed gang-bangers is any rational person's worst nightmare.
In the event of such a home invasion, I'm not going to be at all interested in Rep. Duran's concept of "fair chase," or giving the invaders a sporting chance to get away. I am going to be totally focused on bringing overwhelming fire superiority to bear until the threat is completely neutralized (read: dead) or in full retreat. If so-called high-capacity magazines serve to facilitate that, then I'll take a dozen, thank you very much.
Putting the safety of Colorado citizens on a par with pheasants during hunting season seems to be Rep. Duran's idea of "common-sense gun safety legislation." If that's the case, the voters of House District 5 might want to reconsider her continued representation.

"If so-called high-capacity magazines serve to facilitate that, then I'll take a dozen, thank you very much."
Anybody hear of what was once called a "New York Reload"?
It's the same idea the Aurora Theater Shooter, the Columbine Killers, the Connecticut School Shooter……and almost ALL mass killers have used and use.
They discount counting ONLY on high-capacity magazines…….and simply bring extra guns that are already fully loaded.
The "Liberal" solution is to limit the size of the magazines. The Criminal's solution to the Liberal's solution……is to bring more guns.
Can even a Liberal spell……d.u.m.b.?
Of course…..now that even Liberals realize the obvious……the "Liberal" solution will be to limit the number of guns someone is allowed to carry to…..one.
And the Criminal's solution to THAT would be……drum rolll…..to ignore one more gun law in addition to the ones they already ignore…..and all them Laws that prohibit things like…..murder…..rape…..armed robbery…..that NO criminal EVER disobeys….huh?
Laws exist for the Law-Abiding to follow.
Laws exist for the Law-Breaking Criminals…..to ignore. That's WHY they are criminals.

You forgot to mention that it is the far right gun owners who always want to bring more guns to a fist fight. It's the far out of touch gun owners who have allowed weak laws at gun shows (especially that take place outside the arena) which arm the criminals. It's those "law abiding" citizens who have multiple weapons in their homes which become prime targets for those criminals. Thus giving those criminals easy access. It's far right gun groups who blast sensible gun laws. That in turn allows the gun runners to continue their business of arming those who can't abide by the rules that a society enacts. You think you aren't part of the problem? Think again!
#3 Comment By eddie47 On July 19, 2013 @ 7:28 am
Seems like Mr Klemme is the one overreacting and extra eager to use deadly force to solve his problems. You are no more than a poster boy for MORE gun control.

Thanks for the letter, Rambo. I can't wait to read the news story about you single-handedly taking out a horde of "armed gang-bangers". Maybe they'll make a movie about you!

Looks like the gun manufacturer's lobby spent their money well. Lots of sales out of this little man.

"a home invasion by multiple armed gang-bangers is any rational person's worst nightmare."
It seems to that a rational person would save the title of worst nightmare for something with a slightly higher chance of occurring such as getting terminal cancer or a fatal car crash. I haven't looked up the statistics on gang-banger home invasions so please correct me if I'm wrong but I would hazard a guess that the odds of it happening to you are somewhere between getting attacked by a shark and hit by a meteor. I know some people will argue its important to prepare for such emergencies but personally I don't have the money or the paranoia to use a shark cage whenever I swim in the ocean or build a meteor-proof bunker so I think I'll just do without a 30 round magazine and take my chances.
#7 Comment By Tbone On July 19, 2013 @ 12:12 pm
If you need more than 15 shots to scare of these roving hordes of "gang bangers" (wonder what he means by that?), then U R doin' it wrong.
#8 Comment By Fowler On July 19, 2013 @ 1:13 pm
Maybe you should ask the Korean store owners in Koreatown whether they felt guns were of use in the 1992 LA riots, and then ask the store owners in London how they felt during the riots last year without guns when their stores were all burned to the ground. Bad stuff isn't all that rare.
#9 Comment By Dano2 On July 19, 2013 @ 1:46 pm
Korean store owners in Koreatown
Where is this neighborhood in Colo?
Or are scary black people 1000 miles away enough to cause pants-wetting?
#10 Comment By holyreality On July 19, 2013 @ 3:04 pm
Guns in the wrong hands is negligence waiting to happen.
The original LTE writer David may indeed find himself facing an intruder. Careful consideration of arm firepower and the proximity of innocent neighbors leads one to assume that those emptied hi-cap mags' bullets WILL end up somewhere, and if neighbors are close, their safety is more important than the "defender's" safety, thus it is irresponsible to use any high power round.
Shotguns OTOH would be much more appropriate. Personally, of all my rifles and pistols, I do not count on them for such circumstances BECAUSE I like my neighbors. But that doesn't mean I don't keep a shotgun handy, bean bag rounds on the first five, and double 00 shot in the back. If the beanbags are not enough to convince someone I'm serious, the shot will and neighbors will not be harmed by stray bullets.

Maybe he means this??? Denver December 2009 – Black gangs roaming downtown Denver often vented their hatred for white victims before assaulting and robbing them during a four-month crime wave, according to interviews and court records obtained by 7NEWS. "I hate you f—ing white people," said a black woman in a large group of black men, according to the victim who was beaten up as he and three buddies left a LoDo bar after midnight on Aug. 30. "F—- you, white boys," the woman added, according to the 25-year-old Westminster victim, who spoke to 7NEWS Friday. "Why do you hate white people?" the man recalled asking. "That's when I got hit. They beat the crap out of me," he added, saying that 15 to 20 men beat him to the ground. "They just swarmed you," said the man who curled up on the ground to shield his face. "You basically just had to protect yourself and hope they didn't kill you." A couple dozen arrest warrant affidavits unsealed Friday offer chilling insights into the 26 racially-motivated "blitz attacks," which stretched from July 17 to Nov. 17.One unidentified suspect told police "that the members of his gang earn status in the gang by beating up 'white dudes,'" according to court records. The suspects allegedly bragged about knocking out white victims with one punch to the head. Victims lying on the ground were "stomped" and even tossed through glass windows. In the more than two dozen attacks, victims' injuries included a skull fracture as well as broken noses and eye sockets when they were blindsided by punches that often knocked them unconscious. One man was so savagely attacked that he was hospitalized in a coma for a while, police said. Several of the 35 young male and female suspects arrested by police recently said the gangs often targeted lone white and Hispanic men because they didn't "fight back" and they had money, iPods and other valuable gadgets that attackers coveted.
#12 Comment By Fowler On July 19, 2013 @ 4:04 pm
No the ones Downtown are often enough, as mentioned above. Being mugged once is enough.
#13 Comment By Dano2 On July 19, 2013 @ 5:45 pm
Sounds like one of your logical fallacies of conflation you harrumphed so mightily about on another thread. Oh, wait: you live downtown.
#14 Comment By Fowler On July 19, 2013 @ 6:14 pm
no longer. rioting LA gangs, rioting wack jobs in London, gangs of thugs attacking white people in LoDo.. whatever fits the bill.
#15 Comment By Tbone On July 19, 2013 @ 8:31 pm
Yep, that's what I thought. Black people.
#16 Comment By Tbone On July 19, 2013 @ 8:32 pm
#17 Comment By Fow On July 19, 2013 @ 10:29 pm
Facts are facts. Deal with it.
#18 Comment By Dano2 On July 20, 2013 @ 7:35 am
So you are scared of black people miles away from your home. Of course you are, and the NRA exploits your fear.
#19 Comment By Fowler On July 20, 2013 @ 8:59 am
A policeman stops an elderly woman for a traffic offense and asks her if she has any weapons in the car. She says, "I have a Glock 17 under the seat. And a Colt .380 in the glove box." Anything else? He asks. "Yes, a Smith and Wesson J frame 38 in my purse. And an AR15 in the trunk. The cop raises an eyebrow, and asks: what are you so afraid of? "Absolutely nothing."
#20 Comment By Tbone On July 20, 2013 @ 12:06 pm
What, that you're afraid of black people? Why do I need to deal with that?
#21 Comment By Fowler On July 20, 2013 @ 8:14 pm
No, that roving gangs of gang bangers exist in Denver. You seemed confused about that so I gave you some facts. It's not all rainbows and unicorns out there Bambi. If you want to become a victim, fine by me, just don't force me to become one too because you are naive. I have to deal with wack jobs every day and would never go unarmed around them.

"Hanging Puddles"
The late Al Taylor, whose habit was to build his sculptures first and then sketch them, was originally inspired to create his Hanging Puddles by a pool of dog's urine. Taylor used such simple materials as hot-rolled steel and wire for his sculptures and explored the properties of Xerox machine toner and correction fluid for his drawings. Now by all accounts puddles should not hang, but Taylor managed to tease gravity and make his puddles levitate in whichever position he saw fit.

In fact, electronic throttle control, which has been adopted in some form by nearly all automakers, has several fail-safe features and enhances vehicle safety by making possible functions such as traction control, stability control, adaptive laser cruise control and snow mode power control on current or future vehicles.
Based on the comprehensive investigation and testing, we are highly confident that we have addressed the root cause of unwanted acceleration — the entrapment of the accelerator pedal.
The Times kept going, however, and on December 23 published its expose, which went well beyond safety issues and raised questions about the company's candor. That led to Toyota's tough repost.
Today, of course, the company is in full retreat.
Regulators are piling on, as the Journal reports:
"While Toyota is taking responsible action now, it unfortunately took an enormous effort to get to this point," Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood said Tuesday in a statement. "We're not finished with Toyota and are continuing to review possible defects and monitor the implementation of the recalls."
And the company is admitting it may not have done enough after all:
Mr. [Shinichi] Sasaki, the Toyota executive vice president in charge of quality, said at a news conference in Japan the company may not have done enough to look at "how vehicle parts perform as a whole inside the car under different environmental conditions," and how that could cause system failures.
Here's today's unsigned press release:
Nothing is more important to us than the safety and reliability of the vehicles our customers drive. Since these issues first came to our attention, we have understood that the soonest possible action would be in the best interests of our customers and have acted accordingly. We are very grateful for the advice of all the government agencies involved and feel that through our handling of the recall we have a chance to regain the trust of our customers. We will continue to cooperate fully with NHTSA on all vehicle safety issues.
Then there's LaHood's testimony this morning:
LaHood tells owners of recalled Toyota cars to stop driving them
Attempts to reach Miller, who recently retired, via the carmaker's (certainly swamped, I realize) media line proved unavailing.
This Motor Trend timeline credits the Times with helping to trigger the current revelations starting back in October:
October 18, 2009: The Los Angeles Times publishes the first of several stories concerning claims of unintended acceleration in Toyota vehicles. The Times article reveals there have been nine separate NHTSA investigations into claims of unintended acceleration by Toyota vehicles in the past decade.
The Journal's Holman Jenkins noticed and credited the LAT's work here and here.
This is not about calling for Toyota to take it back its earlier defenses. The issue of whether the problem is mechanical or electronic remains to resolved definitively, though one can see this is not heading in Toyota's direction.
Nor is this about calling a winner in the who-got-there-first newspaper contest.
Other outlets, as I say, have done good work, and I'm not here to hand out any awards.
But it is to recognize that it is harder for a news organization to be first and alone in tackling sensitive and difficult investigative projects. Put it this way, no one would have noticed if the Times hadn't done its several investigations back in the fall and early winter.
And, bogus canards to the contrary, news outlets do indeed take corporate arguments, complaints, and denials very seriously. They have to. It is journalism at a higher level to publish in the face of denials and to see the main facts asserted vindicated by government investigations or corporate admissions.
In "Power Problem," our review of pre-financial crisis lending and Wall Street coverage (the link only goes to the top of the story: for a hardcopy, please write firstname.lastname@example.com) we praised the same paper for its lonely work on Ameriquest and found the absence of more reporting on abusive lenders and Wall Street backers to be the big reason the public was so caught off guard by the crash.
This kind of work is, as I say, hard and expensive, and we need more of it.
Also, other media outlets—and I'm not naming names here—ought to err on the side of generosity in crediting this kind of work. It seems to me that that kind of acknowledgment goes beyond courtesy and becomes a form of mutual support that can be returned later, when the other paper needs it.

Switch Talks Major Lazer, the New Album, and the Ultra Fest
Categories: Winter Music Conference
Left to right: Switch, the Major, and Diplo |
Just last week, Switch fielded some questions from the New Times on subjects like evil bloodsuckers, concept albums, the Ultra fest, cartoons, and Skerrit Bwoy.
New Times: Where's Major Lazer right now? Off hacking vampires into chunks or something?
Switch: Yeah. That's exactly what we do everyday.
With the character and back story and the complexity of the whole thing ... Is Guns Don't Kill People, Lazers Do a concept album?
I guess it's a concept. But really, at the end of the day, it's an excuse for me and Wes [Diplo] to indulge a little bit in our fascination with everything dancehall. And it's a good excuse to get out to Jamaica and have a party.
It must've been like during last summer over in Europe. We did a huge tour for all the festivals and stuff.
And that was the tour that coincided with the release of the first album.
Pretty much. I'm kinda hoping this time around more people will know the music. It's not a lot of fun touring a first album when people haven't had a chance to sort of soak it up properly and become familiar enough to have fun with it. I feel like people have given the record a chance now. It's gonna be good fun going out on the road this time. People actually know the records. Fingers crossed, we'll get a good reaction.
The Ultra date is kicking off the new Lasers Never Die tour, right?
Yeah. It's actually the first comprehensive American tour that I've personally ever been on. We're looking forward to that. We're taking Rusko with us. We just got back from Kingston on Friday and we've been out there recording the new album. So we're gonna have a studio on the tour bus to finish up.
For the new album, who have you worked with?
So far, we have Beenie Man, Elephant Man, Sean Paul. We took Lykke Li out to Jamaica. People like Gyptian and Bugle ... Too many, really. It's still in development. But we definitely feel a lot more confident about this album than the last one.
Will any of the new tracks worm their way into the show?
Definitely. I mean, me and Wes always work like that anyway as DJs. You know, whatever we're working on gets road tested. Especially since in the tour bus studio we'll be developing and working on stuff before and after the shows.
Do you have any other gigs during Winter Music Conference week -- Major Lazer, solo, or whatever?
No. I think we're only there in Miami for two days. But there's a Mad Decent party where everyone and his mum are gonna play. I'll probably grab a little half an hour and play some George Benson. (Laughs) It should be cool.
Has the Major Lazer live experience evolved in the 10 months since you dropped the debut album?
To be honest with you, the live show side of things is mainly down to Wes more than me. I'm more in the studio. But we are putting something together that'll be pretty special. We now have Skerrit Bwoy who's proven to be a little superhero. And Adult Swim is making Major Lazer into a cartoon series, which should premiere sometime next year. So we're having Ferry Gouw, who does all the artwork, put a specific DVD animation thing together for the show. And, obviously, Skerrit Bwoy is more than enough entertainment as a front man.

I do not hunt so I am looking for a 12 gauge strictly for home defense purposes. I see that Academy Sports has a Mossberg Persuader for $289. It comes with both standard stock and pistol grip and a shorter 18.5 inch barrel and is chambered for 3" shells with a 6 shell capacity.
Anyone here have one of these and if so, what is your opinion? Also, is it safe to fire slugs out of it?
Side question, do indoor ranges usually let you shoot shotguns? I haven't asked mine yet but will on my next visit. I've seen people shooting rifles. They don't have any restrictions on ammo or any signs posted about what you can and can't use. Just looking for general experiences, obviously each range is its own.

OAuth 2.0 and the Road to Hell. They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Well, that's OAuth 2.0. Last month I reached the painful conclusion that I can no longer be associated with the OAuth 2.0 standard. I resigned my role as lead author and editor, withdraw my name from the specification, and left the working group. Removing my name from a document I have painstakingly labored over for three years and over two dozen drafts was not easy. Labs/Weave/Identity/Account Manager. The Account Manager project aims to produce: A protocol definition that sites can use to define their account-and-session management features in a format a web browser can understand.
(The latest draft of the specification is here). OAuth — An open protocol to allow secure API authorization in a. Home - Liberty Alliance. MOVIM - Plateforme Sociale Libre. CardSpace ou la gestion des identités et accès.
OpenID Foundation website. OpenID Connect. I've been thinking about how we make OpenID both easier and sexier for quite a while now.
As frustrating as the answer may be to technologists, the problem is not necessarily one that can be solved with more technology. Instead, at some point, you have to move beyond the original constituents of a solution and start to package up the thing in a way that is less alienating, and less "insider baseball". "OpenID Connect", therefore, is what I'm starting to use in casual conversation as my answer to Twitter and Facebook Connect. OpenID + Email Aliasing = Less Spam.
The Information Card Ecosystem. Open Identity Exchange. Two tastes better together: Combining OpenID and O. Update: Einar Solbakken has translated this post to Danish.
On Friday, David Recordon, one of the original authors of OpenID, released a single-page specification for OpenID Connect, a concept that I outlined on this blog in January before I joined Google. I'm particularly excited about this early proposal because it builds on all the great progress that the community has made recently on a litany of technologies, including OAuth 2.0 and the link-based resource descriptor format (LRDD) and its emerging JSON-based variant (JRD).

Your Pop Alternative Source
Ever since I decided to drop all else and focus on doing the musical and my music, it's like there was a sudden shift in my personal
universe. I still have to work hard as always, but things seem to come
more naturally.
I decided to quit my "day job" to focus on my 1st lead role in the musical. It was a scary decision but I felt it was the right one. I
knew I couldn't do both simultaneously and expect to excel in either of
them. It was such an amazing feeling throw caution to the wind and
really give in to such an impulse.
It so happens that while I was doing the musical, I suddenly won a full scholarship to a school where I could receive drama classes, music
and all other cool things that make me tick. Initially I wondered if
it'd be a detour from my plans with music and the single. Technically
it is. However since I arrived at the school I have never been so
convinced that it was the right choice to come here.
The single is still on the way and lots of other great stuff are in the works which I'd rather keep to myself for the time being. For now I
can just lean back and enjoy my lessons and all the great input and
creativity around me.

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)'Cookii monster' Lethal pink jellyfish rediscovered 100 YEARS after off Australian coast
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
November 25th, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) It's pink, pretty with a powerfully toxic sting. The Crambione Cookii jellyfish has suddenly reappeared off the coast of Australia after more than 100 years after the last recorded sighting of it. The highly rare jellyfish hasn't been been since 1910 - but one was recently captured off the coast of Queensland, Australia. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Very little is known about the mysterious species, whose sting is so powerful that it can be felt in the water surrounding the creature.Discovered by an aquarist who was releasing a rescued sea turtle, Puk Scivyer, "As soon as I saw it I realized it was a species I'd never seen before." An employee at UnderWater World aquarium in Mooloolaba, Sciyver added, "But to then discover I was the first person to see this species in over a hundred years was just incredible. "It was the size [that made it stand out]... but as we came past he was more of a cube shape and we could see he was not like the ones that we normally see. "It's the biggest [jellyfish] I have seen in Australian waters." Marine biologists are perplexed as to how the species, which was presumed extinct, has managed to evade notice for more than a century. Last seen by American scientist Alfred Gainsborough Mayor off Cookstown, Queensland, in 1910, the jellyfish has not been seen since. Gainsborough's sketch was until now the only record of the creature in existence. That sketch was used to help identify the animal by jellyfish expert Dr Lisa-Ann Gershwin, who confirmed the existence of unusual ocean-dweller after it was captured. Now cared for at the UnderWater World aquarium in Queensland, the specimen will be observed closely behind the scenes to learn as much as possible about the species. Currently scientists do not know where the animals live, their life expectancy or their population size. Scivyer thinks it is unlikely that any more will be found. A birth foretold: click here to learn more! Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) |

this post is spurred on by comments to a post on Monday (if you want to understand a bit about the resources used by a user, read Tranquility's comments to that post). Tranquility sheds light on just how much data moves back and forth on the InWoldz grid and how quickly it adds up to HUGE numbers. he explains how textures add up very quickly and tossed out real numbers like 15,000,000 asset requests in a 3 day period (that's 15 million!) o_O
there is a tendency to equate OpenSim to a website and to frame the evolution of virtual worlds to that of the web's history. both have URLs (URIs) and both live "out there" in the internet and both use servers to dish content up to computers. way back in the day, website hosting was big bucks – you could spend $300 a month for a small amount of disk space for one domain but, today, hosting can be on the order of $4 a month with GoDaddy. we see prices falling for virtual worlds too, like $1000 setup plus $295 a month for Second Life to $10 a month per sim and even less with cloud hosting or free with sim-on-a-stick! =)
however, the demands on the server are far greater for a virtual world than a web page
the OpenSim developers keep improving OpenSim and keep working on not just bugs and new feathures but also on its architecture (shout out to our own Micheil who contributed a fix last week! thanks Micheil!) =)
for me, i would love to see OpenSim become easier to install similar to a "one-click" WordPress install. many website hosting companies have one-click installs of various blog platforms, e-commerce solutions, photo albums, content management systems, and so on
these one-click installs can be pretty sophisticated with WordPress installing dozens of PHP pages, setting up databases, and installing hundreds of files
furthermore, server apps like WordPress have very easy (non-techy) upgrade tools. WordPress alerts the user to a new version and so do any plug-ins you may be using with it. a simple button click updates the blog app or plug-in in a matter of seconds
WordPress also has very easy to use tools for exporting backups and importing content, including the entire blog if you move it to another host (think in terms of OARs and IARs and if you are a pirate – maybe ARRRs) =p
i would anticipate that OpenSim could eventually get to this "one-click" stage and even be offered as part of a website hosting company's offering just like anything else
BUT . . . an easy install does not mean an inexpensive to run server app. WordPress serves up web pages which don't need a lot of server muscle and running a blog does not require much resource wise from a server. this blog enjoys a decent level of traffic and runs just fine on a $12 a month HostGator hosting package. our hosting allows unlimited domains and databases and we run about 16 sites from it and our ping reports show 100% uptime for the most part
unfortunately, OpenSim is not a lightweight server app and that makes sense when you think about what OpenSim (and Second Life) is – a real-time shareable, muli-collaborator, instant rendering 3D application
if you have ever used Blender or even Google SketchUp with a ray tracer (like Kerky), then you know that 3D apps need time to render out a scene. OpenSim continually renders "live" and does so for multiple users all at once. that is very sophisticated and it is easy to take OpenSim (and Second Life) for granted and moan about your left shoe attaching to your butt instead of your foot (old timers will remember that from SL) =D
a cheap website host and a one-click OpenSim install (quick! patent that idea before SpotON3D!) does not mean a good OpenSim deployment. it may be okay for a region for yourself and a few visitors, but it will always (/me thinks but my crystal ball is dirty) depend on the hardware available to it. the one sim, one core, and one gig RAM rule will be around for a while (case in point – SL has never changed full sim prim limits and concurrency or reduced tier!)
easier installs will make adoption of OpenSim more widespread, but won't make a big difference for the hardware needed
more bucks mean more bang – now and probably in the future too

USAF TFX 8" Sage Green GTX NMT
The Danner® USAF TFX is lightweight, comfortable and fast. Sage green leather upper. Lined in waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX® for comfort and protection from the elements. The TERRA FORCE X platform gives the boot lightweight, durable traction, heel-to-toe energy transfer and side support to enhance maneuverability. A Fatigue Fighter footbed delivers all-day comfort. Approved for optional wear by the USAF.
Boot Details
This boot is built on our most popular last, the 850. This last fits true to size with an athletic and supportive fit while providing ample room in the toe. This comfortable, supportive fit is ideal for those needing high mileage performance from their gear.
Tips for the Perfect Fit
- Measure both feet. If one foot is slightly larger than the other, select a size that fits the larger of the two.
- Consider the type of socks you'll be wearing with your boot. For thicker socks, you may want to select a half size larger than you normally wear.
- When you do receive your boots, we recommend first wearing them indoors for a few hours to ensure they're the right fit.

Comments about Danner USAF TFX GTX Non-Metallic Safety Toe Military Boots:
I wear my boots for 16-18 hours a day here in Iraq. Most Air Force Issued boots really bother my feet. I broke down and bought these boots. They are a little thicker than the regular desert hot weather boot, but that is fine as even with the extra thickness my feet don't sweat that much. Gore-tex is worth it. Great in water and mud. Comfortable from day one. No breaking in required. Can walk, stand, work in them all day. Besides all of that the only TFX boots with non-metallic safety toe, which is a requirement for me. Will never wear another pair of boots again.
- Comfort
- Fit is super
- Gore Tex is a plus
- Great Support
- Could use non slip sole
- Lacing is tricky
Best Uses
- Great for outdoor use
- Great for prolonged wear
Comments about Danner USAF TFX GTX Non-Metallic Safety Toe Military Boots:
Great boot, very comfortable. My only complaint is that they are a bit slippery in wet conditions and the boot could use speedlaces. Then again every pair of boots I've had cannot match up to conditions that firefighters face(water,oil,foam,ect.).I love that Danner offers this boot with a NMT rather than a steel toe.
- Comfortable
- Lacing
- Leather tears
Best Uses
Comments about Danner USAF TFX GTX Non-Metallic Safety Toe Military Boots:
I have owned these boots for about 7 months now and have liked them up until about a month ago (right after warranty ran out). They were very comfortable right out of the box. No break in required, however the 8 of the 20 eyelets on my left boot have either started pulling through or have torn completely through to the next eyelet making the boots very loose and unwearable now. I always thought Danner was a quality product, but I won't be replacing these or any other footwaer I own with Dammer products!
Comments about Danner USAF TFX GTX Non-Metallic Safety Toe Military Boots:
Boots are comfortable and are great to wear but... very slippery when on oil/water. Also this is my second pair and the left boot bottem eyelet keeps comming out.
- Comfortable
- Durable
- NOT an office boot
- Temperate
- Waterproof dependable
- slippery when wet
Best Uses
- Moderate to hard labor
Comments about Danner USAF TFX GTX Non-Metallic Safety Toe Military Boots:
Im currently stationed in Japan where it rains/snows about 40% of the year so its a must that i have a boot that is waterproof and can withstand cold temps and hot humid ones. These boots do that. Hands down the boots issued to us for cold weather and the competition "marauders" that you can buy at clothing exchange cant comparer to these boots. Since it is a non-metallic safety toe they do not conduct heat/cold or electricity which is a must with my job as im outside for 98% of it and causing any type of electrical conduction to the ground would cause fatal. NOW with my job i need to pull/push very heavy objects and when im in a condition like rain against a painted floor i slip all the time, this does not justify me purchasing another brand-name boot because this will happen with all types of boots but could possibly be improved upon, also i have owned these boots for 10 months and i need to get the outer-sole replaced as they are turning into racing slicks. I WILL BE GETTING THEM RE-SOLED, I am 100% recommending these to everyone considering these. i have NOT had any eye hook problems and i do not foresee any. these boots are dependable and long lasting, and if your considering getting those other boots "marauders" i think they are, you WILL get blisters on your feet and they DONT protect you from the elements, other co-workers got them and are very displeased by them. Get these if you work on the flight-line you will be disappointed with any other boot.

The page has a picture on it which takes up most of the screen . You see the start of some text , however if you scroll down you get all the text.
There are menu's visable on the side and top.
Would it be advisable to change the picture to see more text or not ?
No matter how fast computers become, they are never fast enough... particularly when we get used to the most recent speed increase!
That said, if the PIC is the context/idea, then by all means make it most prominent. Since navigation is mentioned then there's more to offer, and I would make it easier to get to the rest of the stuff than create a landing page that might lose some eyeballs.
the only problem with google optimizer is that it only alows you to use one page as the destination page .
But maybe in the long run they will include more options.

Got a question? Contact me at email@example.com
A 'bit about me: I have a BS degree in Recreation/Hospitality Management from California State University, Chico. Yes, that is a real degree. I currently live near San Francisco, California, soaking up the sun and enjoying the mass amounts of exotic foods. I love food a lot and exercise almost as much.
Story of health: As long as I can remember, I had been overweight. My heaviest was 174 lbs. This was when I was about 14 years old and 5′4. When I entered high school, after an awkward freshman year, I decided to "reinvent" myself. Already being a part of the high school tennis team, I increased my practices and decided to start running. At this time I started eating less and less until I was literally eating two bowls of Grape-nut cereal a day. Needless to say, I had an eating disorder. I dropped weight fast and at about 4 months later, I had lost 50 lbs and was dipping into the zone of being way too thin.
Today, I am the healthiest I have ever been. I exercise regularly and enjoy clean, healthy foods. I prefer to go without gluten and (most of the time) dairy. I do eat meat and seafood, but only on occasion. In general, I eat what my body craves. And if it craves sweets, then I'll have myself some raw, clean, wholesome sweets!
My passion is helping and motivating others. I know what it is like to be on both sides of the fork- overweight and underweight. I know what it is like to dislike yourself, have a distorted body image, and to obsess about every calorie. I also know what it is like to NOT worry about any of those things and to thrive. And I want every woman (or man) out there to feel powerful, beautiful, and thrive in life.
For exercise, you will find me at the gym lifting weights, taking my beloved Crossfit, Mixed Martial Arts Boot Camp, or Kickboxing classes, spinning, or outside running. In October 2010, I completed my first marathon and raised over $5000 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society while training. Exercise fuels my life in so many ways and I am blessed with receiving enjoyment from it.

Hey I'm new to your blog but it's good to read your story I'm in college in the bay area and TRY to eat healthy while eating dorm food… it's a struggle sometimes
And I'm also hopelessly addicted to baking cookies. Sigh!
Looking forward to reading more of your blog!
- January 18, 2011 at 11:18 AM
Hi Lori,
I was hoping I could run something by you … quite a while back my son and I made one of your recipes for the blog I write and then we ranked it according to a silly made-up rating system that kept changing. I don't remember exactly how it was rated, but I know it was really good it could have received either a 200 or a 100 or a two-thumbs up, all of which we used to mean really, really, really good. And I've seen through reading more of your blog that like us, you love cooking nutritious foods that taste great and indulging your sweet tooth in a healthy way.
You were also such a good sport that I wanted to ask you … I'm going to start a healthy muffin series in the next few weeks — and I am looking for bloggers interested in taking part. Would you consider talking healthy muffins with me one week and sharing a recipe? I would love to hear from you!!
Thanks so much, Kara

That's interesting that you're into MMA fitness training. It's not often I see women talking about it. Do you go somewhere for it? And have you checked out GSP's new fitness video?
- January 4, 2012 at 7:26 AM
What do you do for a living, are you a student, grad student? Self-employed?
Meagan´s last blog post ..Nourishing Protein Bars 2.0 - April 13, 2012 at 3:52 PM
Love your Blog Lori, this is beautiful! I saw your motivation from a far the first I met you…and your passion for food and health is spilled all over these pages. I appreciate you sharing your story regarding body image-I peronally know how this feels because after highschool i too reinvented myself. I dropped 35 lbs. I went from a six 14 to a size 6. I am a happy and healthy size 8 for more than 10 years now..and it feels great to balance my love of sweets and my obsession with looking fit. But after reading this, I see I need to change my view and stop being obsessed with looking fit, but rather embrace a heart happy and healthy lifestyle. I love this! you have a new Fan..have a great weekend!
- July 16, 2012 at 3:48 PM
I am very inspired by your story. You have overcome a lot and are now looking great and doing such great healthy things for yourself and your body! I am so glad I stumbled on your blog. I can't wait to read more!
- September 10, 2012 at 4:41 PM
Hi Lori! It was great meeting you today at the Vegan Challenge meeting. Love your site! It's always great to meet another person who loves fitness and is empowered by exercise. I enjoyed reading your story, and hopefully we will get to connect again soon!
- November 5, 2012 at 6:15 AM
Lori! I am so glad I found your site (through Pinterest btw) Your recipes look delicious! I was looking for a good pasta-free veggie lasagna for dinner. I will be making a few modifications to yours. I just moved to France and I don't speak the language, so its REALLY hard to shop here. Unless of course I do a ton of research before going to the store. My shopping list becomes bilingual.
Oh almost forgot to mention, I graduated from CSU Chico as well! I miss Chico, but Versailles is nice too.
- November 19, 2012 at 10:55 AM
Hi Lori! I went to Chico too and now live in SF. I just started paleo in 2012 to get ready for my wedding. I am not a fan of cooking so I am always looking for great easy and quick Paleo recipies. Thanks for listing some on here.

Keepin' It Real: Episode 2
by Grant Dudley in Behind the Scenes, Food Network Star, Recap, June 14, 2010Alrighty! Let me dig in on some of my standout moments – and then I want to hear yours!
I must admit, I was expecting (and hoping for) a little Dzintra Drama. From the comments I've read, she has clearly rubbed some of you the wrong way, but as I explained last week, I enjoy her! If there was a Team Dzintra t-shirt, I would buy it. As a matter of fact, I'm going to make one and wear it around the office.
In the first challenge, Giada told the finalists that if they couldn't "cook and talk at the same time," that they didn't need to be in the competition. This is where I would make my exit. Think about it – some of the tasks you do (and do well), can you clearly explain what you are actually doing while you're working on that task? I'm talking out loud now as I type this and all I can come up with to explain my action is, "Writing. Typing."
Poor Aarti was called out on the "dead air" she left while on camera. I felt badly for her. You know she just wanted to hide behind her hair flower. And Serena? She was criticized for speaking waaaay too fast. Sure, I couldn't understand a word she said, but really, isn't having too much to say and speaking super fast to get it all out better than silence?
Duff was a guest in this episode and introduced the second challenge. Who doesn't love this man? Am I the only who thinks Duff's cakes shouldn't be eaten, but preserved? They are true pieces of art – they shouldn't be cut into like savages! Hmm – I'll save this topic for another day.
The Santa Monica Pier Challenge was CRAZY! The finalists had to create a savory party plate inspired by carnival food. Can you even imagine? Aarti's inspiration was funnel cake – and she had never even eaten one before (which is just a travesty – someone get this girl a funnel cake, ASAP)!
Brianna seemed to shut down a bit in this competition. I think she was overly tired. You know how it is when you're exhausted – you reach that point where you're simply DONE. Brianna needed a nap to put that pep back in her step. If Bob and Susie had only provided her with an air mattress out there on the pier, she would have been fine.
Elimination time. As you saw, Doreen was the second finalist to depart the show. I did understand the judges' decision to send her home. Giada had said earlier in the show that her facial expressions "made her not want to watch." Well, that's clearly not good. But in her defense, in the pier challenge, Doreen was given a "Root Beer Float" to inspire her savory dish. Merciful days, a Root. Beer. Float? My facial expression would have been far from cute, too. So long, Doreen. I'll miss you.
That's my take, what's yours? Any standout moments for you? Oh, I'm thinking of devoting an entire blog entry to nothing but Tom's hair. Thoughts?

Dear Lenny, Out of all the seasons of Food Network Star, I can think of only one other winner who has a personality as big as yours. Congratulations a...Comments (

Many thanks for making the effort to explain the terminlogy towards the starters!
I am totally impressed by the design layout on your website. Your logo is extremely colorful as well! Great work!
I personally cannot wait for Dzintra to be gone. She's so scatter brained that I don't understand how she gets through the day! I'd hate to see her on a caffeine high...
I feel bad for Doreen. So she had a hard time telling them what her perspective was. How many perspectives on food can there possibly be?! She should have stayed and Dzintra should have gone.
I'm crossing my fingers for Herb, I love his "I can make anything healthier" approach. Brad is adorable. Aarti and Aria rock too.-
Herb is definitely doing a better job at the healthy approach then Katie from last season. He doesn't shove it down your throat and it tastes good. Its so "oh by the way the cheese your eating has a third of the calories." Sneaky guy! lol. And Aarti is awesome I love her.
I agree with you Christina. Dzintra should have gone and Doreen should have been given another chance.
I can't believe so many people are being so cruel to Dzintra. She could have lost her eye or been blinded by that injury. She made the right choice in protecting her vision. The judges have said on several occasions how impressed they are with her cooking skills. Unfortunately, she is now having to play catch-up since she was not able to participate in one event. And I love her enthusiasm!!!! She is bubbly and articulate and does really well infront of a live camera - which is much more than I can say for most of the contestants. And she looks darling on screen. Give the girl a chance!
i definitely think that dzintra is a "little" ditzy, but i think it's probably because she is nervous. however, that said, i think that the attitude of the others is a disgrace. scratching cornea is extremely painful (i've done it twice), and i don't think the others had any right to criticize her, infering that she was just being a drama queen. it really is possible to compete in one of these competitions without trying to disgrace your competitor.
I so agree with Christine!!!!!!!!!!!! Dzintra gives me a headache and I lose interest when she is on the screen. She should have been eliminated when she missed the first challenge. I hope she goes tonite.
The preview for the next show appears to hint at some possible personality conflicts between Aria and Dzintra, which could happen if Dzintra continues to make statements such as "I always get the worst". After watching her video, I was impressed with her work ethic, her impressive culinary background, and the fact that she seemed very nice, not what we are seeing now. Are nerves preventing we the viewing audience from seeing who she really is?
I think the takes the network is choosing is preventing us from seeing the real Dzintra. She can really cook well, looks great, and has a huge amount of energy!! GO DZINTRA, don't let them pull you down to their level.
I think Dzintra should have left first. She didn't even participate in the group challenge the first week. I was hoping she'd be gone last night. My favorite is DAS. He made a great comeback last night, after a shaky start in Episode 1.
I agree about Dzintra! I can't listen to her excuses anymore. I understand the concern for her eye but maybe that means she needed to drop out. This week it's that "She got the worst carnival food". EVERYONE got something hard...that was the point, it was open to interpretation and her's was all over the place (as she is). She may be a nice person but that doesn't always make a good host. Maybe she can go into food journalism in print or something but she shouldn't be on the show. I feel she is being kept on as a bit of a spectacle and I hate when reality TV does that. She's obviously not comfortable in front of the camera, and I don't think a majority of people would watch her show so stop pulling her along. I like Das, Herb, Aarti and Aria for now, we'll see how the season progresses!
All I can say is, I want and wish for paul to go home, I just don't care for him. Aarti just needs to be confident, that;s all.
i think there was no mention of how Aria kept her cool inspite of leaving her meatballs behind! i think she rocks!
I absolutely love Aarti. I love her personality and her Indian style food would be a new thing to add to the Food Network. She also can cook very well.
I have my opinions about the contestants but I have to get this off my chest: I LOVE Giada's shows. I love watching her cook and I am always salivating at the food she makes. However, everytime I have watched her on the Next Food Network Star (past shows and now this), she comes across as a very snotty know it all. I'm really starting to dislike her. She's almost like Simon Cowell. She criticized Doreen's facial expressions, which is funny because as I was watching the last episode I told my husband I felt like changing the channel because her demeanor was so unpleasant. I have read her bio and I know it wasn't easy for her to get in front of the camera (she was really shy, blah blah blah). I know she's a celebrity chef now, but how about showing a little more humility and compassion for these people. Watching her on these shows is really making me change my opinion of her.
Totally agree. Giada needs to back off a bit - for the first time, that SMILE is starting to irritate.
Remember, Giada's job is a mentor, one who needs to inform the contestants and make constructive criticism. I don't believe they had mentors in the other NFNS. They should listen to her advice as this group beat out a lot of competitors for a place on this show.
To always hungry - I TOTALLY agree about everthing that you said about Giada. I have ALWAYS thought that she is a snob!
I have to disagree here. Her job here is to be tough. She's not here to be someone's friend and to pat people on the back and tell them they did well even if they didn't. ( They've all got mothers who can do that!) What these people need is honest feedback, and someone who can tell them specifically what they need to do to improve. Who better to do that than someone who learned the hard way herself.
She was completely right about Doreen; she looked constipated during the first demo. Doreen took that very good advice and for the second part at the pier was MUCH improved in her presentation. But it was a case of Giada gave her very good advice, the contestant was open enough to take it and it helped her improve. If her cooking skills had been up to par (the not-pulled pork disk was not ever going to fly) she might have advanced because her presentation was definately better.
I'm so upset Paul wasn't axed. Doreen wasn't going to survive one way or the other and I don't think Dzintra will either, but I think Paul's pompous behavior at the pier was inexcusable and an absolute turn off. There is no way I would ever watch a show with him at the forefront because I would forever be wanting to punch the TV screen. I wouldn't watch a show with Brianna or Das either as they are also incredibly annoying to me, but I would absolutely watch a show with either Aarti or Herb. I'd prefer Aarti because there's no one on Food Network who cooks Indian. All the other chefs, I'm indifferent to. I seem to be immune to this mysterious charm Aria appears to have.
But why is Serena even a contender? I don't find her horribly annoying or anything, but Food Network already has an Italian host. It makes no sense to present her as an option when her there's someone else with her exact same culinary point of view.
Well, I think Serena is adorable and spontaneous and fun to watch and i am sure there are several italian dishes that Giada does not cook!
I agree with most of your comments. Paul and Dzintra should go next, I wouldn't watch either of them. Brianna next and then Das. Aria and Serena both offer home spun charm. I think Serena would be a complement to Giada, rather than a competitor in any way. I don't think their points of view are exact. She may want to model after Giada--you can see that a little with the smile that tends to come across on camera as fixed rather than spontaneous; however, she would be wise to continue to be natural and concentrate on the basics of grandma's kitchen (i.e., home made stock, marinara, etc.) Fresh, easy, affordable and with love.
I agree about Paul. If other guests of Chef Duff found him to be rude and from what we saw of the degrading remarks he makes, he should have been shown the door. Food philosophys and statements or even poor cooking choices don't add up to the bad PR of having a rude contestant.
I agree, I do not see Aria's charm. Yeah, I guess she is sort of good, but unlike many people, I do not think she is great.
I also cannot believe some of the comments Paul said. They were completely rude. I hope he gets out next week. He really should have gone instead of Doreen.
Hi I am a big fan of NFNS; i missed last night's episode and I can not believe you can not watch the full episode on line! I can not wait till next Sunday.
annamerc, FN will be repeating their 6/13th show this Wed. nite, early hours Thurs, Sat mid-afternoon, Sun late afternoon. Perhaps you can catch it on one of these days!
Here's my take:
If Aarti doesn't believe in herself, how can she expect anyone else to? I like Aria, but she really needs to speak to adults as an adult. I almost feel like I'm in second grade when she is talking to me. She does have a young child though so she is probably using her "mommy" voice. Snap out of it Aria! Dzintra is so dzitsy that it hurts to watch her. She talks to herself even IN FRONT OF THE JUDGES! She should be a spokesperson for some multiple personality support group. Poor Doreen just couldn't bring her POV out. One would think that all of these chefs have seen this show and knew they needed to have a POV. Bad on her for not having one. Simply-complex? Brianna is just rude and as she said herself, a diva. I have no room in my life for divas. Serena, the energizer bunny needs to slow down. I cannot understand what she is saying. I love Italian food and really need to get my printer fixed so I can print out her marinara recipe.-
Aarti needs to read and believe in Boston Dan's pep talk to her, it a good one:)
I think Aarti is sweet but she does not come across as an expert! I was surprised she won the last contest!
I think it's important to come across more as "relatable" and "someone that you would want in your living room" more than an "expert." Experts are boring. Personality is key here, and frankly if there is someone who can demystify Indian food, inspire me to try to make it, and bring it more into the mainstream with some twists on western foods at times, that's "expert" enough to me. AARTI ROCKS!!!
Since when did you get your medical degree. Lots of people talk to themselves. Last season when the winner did that, Susie thought it was cute. Do you have anything good to say?
I think Dzintra should have been sent home this week-I wouldn't want to watch someone like her who talks to herself in front of everyone else.

Acoustic Botany
23.06.10 | London
Genetically Engineered Sound Garden.
The debate around Genetic Engineering is currently centered around vital issues such as food, healthcare and the environment. However, we have been shaping nature for thousands of years, not only to suit our needs, but our most irrational desires. Beautiful flowers, mind altering weeds and crabs shaped like human faces all thrive on these desires, giving them an evolutionary advantage. By presenting a fantastical acoustic garden, a controlled ecosystem of entertainment, I aim to explore our cultural and aesthetic relationship to nature, and to question its future in the age of Synthetic Biology.
