I am looking for a white russian style gasmask, although Demask do one it is well over budget. Anyone seen any other sites or perhaps ebay article.
Mistress Annabel
dear Mistress,
i have placed some links for getting white rubber gasmasks. The only white ones are the older classic russion gasmasks, quite some time ago. are this the ones you mean?? there s one link showing some more recent gasmasks but they are only grey and black. The links i got seem dated, so it would be wise to check first if they are still in stock.
many compliments for your (rubber)site s , too bad i cannot pay a visit to your dungeon, you r rubber equipment is incredibly large and impressive.
hope you can find what you r looking for.
Hi Mistress Annabel Sadistra,
I have a Russian Mask that is currently surplus to requirements,Its grey/white as I'm not sure there is a difference - see pic.
Drop me a PM if you're interested,low price or I'm sure we can come to some arrangement.
Hi guys
Thanks for the heads up on these. Wired what is an orgone accumulator and what effect does it have????
Mistress Annabel
Does anyone know where I can get the drinking tube for the inside of a British S10 gasmask? Worldwide shipping woul be handy...
Thnx in advance...
Hi Mistress,
Here's a brief explanation from - http://inventors.about.com/library/weekly/aa031497.htm
'That would be the controversial Doctor Wilhelm Reich, father of orgone energy (also known as chi or life-energy) and the science of orgonomy. Wilhelm Reich developed a metal-lined device named the Orgone Accumulator, believing that the box trapped orgone energy that he could harness in groundbreaking approaches towards psychiatry, medicine, the social sciences, biology and weather research.'Wilhelm Reich's discovery of orgone began with his research of a physical bio-energy basis for Sigmund Freud's theories of neurosis in humans. Wilhelm Reich believed that traumatic experiences blocked the natural flow of life-energy in the body, leading to physical and mental disease. Wilhelm Reich concluded that the libidinal-energy that Freud discussed was the primordial-energy of life itself, connected to more than just sexuality. Orgone was everywhere and Reich measured this energy-in-motion over the surface of the earth. He even determined that its motion affected weather formation.I dont actually posses one, although some people entertain the theory that a completeley enclosing latex catsuit (pref inflatable) can have a similiar effect and also block out negative energys.'In 1940, Wilhelm Reich constructed the first device to accumulate orgone energy: a six-sided box constructed of alternating layers of organic materials (to attract the energy) and metallic materials (to radiate the energy toward the center of the box). Patients would sit inside the accumulator and absorb orgone energy through their skin and lungs. The accumulator had a healthy effect on blood and body tissue by improving the flow of life-energy and by releasing energy-blocks.'
My sig come from my liking of a certain cosmic acid head 70's hippy rock band Hawkwind! Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnn!
Rubbery Regards,
thanks to the wonderous Google...
I've got an orgone accumulator
It makes me feel greater
I'll see you sometime later
When I'm through with my accumulator
It's no social integrator
It's a one man isolator
It's a back brain stimulator
It's a cerebral vibrator
Those energy stimulators
Just turn your eyeballs into craters
But an orgone accumulator
Is a superman creator
It's no social integrator
It's a one man isolator
It's a back brain stimulator
It's a cerebral vibrator
I've got an orgone accumulator
And it makes me feel greater
I'll see you sometime later
When I'm through with my accumulator
Hi all,
Just wanted to share my delight with my latest purchase. Got an amazing hood from Studiogum (www.studiogum.com) - its the GMH7b in black for anyone that cares to look. Pricey but the quality is phenomenal - very thick latex (3mm). The mask weighs a ton - largely due to weight of the metal tube connectors. Got a lace up back which means my wife and I can share it (when I summon up the courage to show it to her!). People may balk at their prices but for me nothing comes close to Studiogum quality wise. Maybe I was luckly but I didn't even have to wait for it to be made - it was in stock when I first enquired. Get saving now!
Is that the GMH17b rather than the GMH7b?

Hi Suspman
Great hood, but how do you control the incoming air so you can use the re-breathing balloon or is it not designed as a re-breathing balloon

Next: Hooking New Back Ends Into Gnus, Previous: Error Messaging, Up: Back End Interface
Many back ends are quite similar. nnml
is just like
, but it allows you to edit the articles on the server.
is just like nnml
, but it doesn't use an active file,
and it doesn't maintain overview databases. nndir
is just like
, but it has no concept of "groups", and it doesn't allow
editing articles.
It would make sense if it were possible to "inherit" functions from back ends when writing new back ends. And, indeed, you can do that if you want to. (You don't have to if you don't want to, of course.)
All the back ends declare their public variables and functions by using a
package called nnoo
To inherit functions from other back ends (and allow other back ends to inherit functions from the current back end), you should use the following macros:
(nnoo-declare nndir nnml nnmh)
has declared here that it intends to inherit functions from
both nnml
and nnmh
, but registers the variable as
a public server variable. Most state-oriented variables should be
declared with defvoo
instead of defvar
In addition to the normal defvar
parameters, it takes a list of
variables in the parent back ends to map the variable to when executing
a function in those back ends.
(defvoo nndir-directory nil "Where nndir will look for groups." nnml-current-directory nnmh-current-directory)
This means that nnml-current-directory
will be set to
when an nnml
function is called on behalf
of nndir
. (The same with nnmh
(nnoo-define-basics nndir)
and takes the same parameters. In
addition to doing the normal defun
things, it registers the
function as being public so that other back ends can inherit it.
(nnoo-map-functions nndir (nnml-retrieve-headers 0 nndir-current-group 0 0) (nnmh-request-article 0 nndir-current-group 0 0))
This means that when nndir-retrieve-headers
is called, the first,
third, and fourth parameters will be passed on to
, while the second parameter is set to the
value of nndir-current-group
(nnoo-import nndir (nnmh nnmh-request-list nnmh-request-newgroups) (nnml))
This means that calls to nndir-request-list
should just be passed
on to nnmh-request-list
, while all public functions from
that haven't been defined in nndir
yet should be
defined now.
Below is a slightly shortened version of the nndir
back end.

Roering to be honored at Oregon-Nevada game
Oregon (0-1) hosts Nevada (0-0) Saturday at Autzen Stadium in its 2011 home opener.
Kickoff: 12:30 p.m.
Forecast: Sunny, highs around 95
TV: FX with Gus Johnson, Charles Davis and Tim Brewster.
Radio: In Eugene, KUGN (590 AM) and KZEL (96.1 FM), with Jerry Allen, Mike Jorgensen and Jay Allen. Satellite radio: XM 194; Sirius 218.
Oregon leads the series 5-1. The last time the teams met, in 2003, Oregon won 31-23 in Eugene. Nevada's only win, 13-6, came the first time the schools met, in 1947.
Nevada has won seven straight games, dating to last season. The Wolf Pack went 13-1 last year and won a share of the Western Athletic Conference championship. WAC coaches and beat writers picked Nevada to finish third in the conference this year, behind Hawaii and Fresno State.
Josh Roering, associate professor of geological sciences, will be recognized during Saturday's game. Roering, a member of the UO faculty since 2001, recently received the American Association of Geographers' G.K. Gilbert Award for Excellence in Geomorphic Research, in recognition for his research into the role of trees in regulation of dynamic changes in landscape.
In a paper published last year in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters, Roering and colleagues explored the question of what the Pacific Northwest would look like without trees.
Roering said he was honored to be recognized at an Oregon football game.
"Anytime we can inject science into the public eye it's a good thing," he said.
Roering said he tries to catch at least one home game each year, and likes to wear his "old school" Oregon hat with the interlocking U and O.

In October 2000 local trials riders met up for a pint and the general consensus was that North Lincolnshire was lacking a good pre 65 and twinshock club which catered for beginners as well as more experienced riders. Hence North Lincolnshire Classic Motorcycle Club was formed and now regularly meets at the Nag's Head pub in Wootton.
The first trial was held at Ashby Ville Scunthorpe on New Years Day 2001. The club now has over 120 members and puts on 16 trials per year. Novice riders are still encouraged with very easy sections as well as clubman and expert routes. The club also allows under 13 to ride mono shock bikes, giving them an entry level into the sport.

US cables: Military not ready to accept Gamal Mubarak as successor
Gamal Mubarak

Create alert for Hosni MubarakHosni Mubarak
, Create alert for American embassyAmerican embassy
US diplomats believe Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak would have a "tough time" persuading power brokers in the military to accept his son as his successor, according to leaked American embassy cables. The documents, released by the WikiLeaks website Tuesday, conclude that Mubarak's best chance would be to try to install his son and step down, rather than setting up a transition to take place after his demise.
One cable claims that Egypt's powerful intelligence chief, Omar Suleiman, "detests" the idea of Gamal as president.

As of Friday, February 17, 2012
© Copyright 2015
Clayton News Daily
At the urging of State Rep. Andy Welch (R-McDonough), the Georgia House of Representatives has approved, and issued, a resolution making the second week of November, "Kindness Week" in Georgia.
The campaign, which began in Henry County in 2004, was developed in honor and memory of Hunter Welch. The son of Kit and Buddy Welch, and the brother of Rep. Andy Welch, died in 2004, at the age of 12.
House Resolution 1302 was formally adopted on Feb. 3, expanding the local "Kindness Works — Pass It On" campaign statewide. It was ceremoniously presented by Welch on Feb. 8.
"The remembrance of my brother really has grown into a community-wide expression of love and kindness to one another," said Andy Welch, during a previous interview with the Henry Daily Herald. "I think the resolution is a natural expansion of the movement beyond Henry County — a call to extend that spirit of kindness statewide."
Advocates of the campaign observe the anniversary of Hunter Welch's birthday (Nov. 5), in conjunction with the international observance of "Random Acts of Kindness Week."
They use the youngster's story to demonstrate the virtues of kindness.
Hunter Welch had lived with Prader-Willie Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder affecting childhood development, but managed to exhibit kindness to those he met, according to Kit Welch.
His death inspired family friends to campaign and spread awareness of the benefits of kind actions. Supporters now observe the message of kindness each year, during the second week of November, to remind citizens of the world about the positive effects of kindness.
"We started this week as a gesture to give back to the community that cared and supported our special needs son," said Kit Welch. "They gave to Hunter, and we wanted to give back to them."
Businesses, schools, and church groups have joined the crusade over the years, spreading the word about various activities and charities people can support, which are in line with the campaign's charitable objectives.
"Our dream is that we expose as many children as possible to the meaning of the word and the symbolism of this week," continued Kit Welch. "There are lots of kids, today, who have never experienced the power of kindness."
Those interested in supporting the campaign with a "Kindness Works" lawn sign, should contact campaign organizers at (770) 957-3937.

Ok-Hee Ku, a Korean pioneer both on the LPGA Tour and on circuits across Asia, died Thursday at age 56, according to the LPGA Tour. The cause of death was a heart attack at her home in Japan, according to published reports.
Ku became the first Korean player to win on the LPGA Tour when she triumphed at the 1988 Standard Register Turquoise Classic in Phoenix, and she played consistently on the LPGA Tour for several years from the late 1980s through the early 1990s. Before and after her stint in the United States, she was a consistent winner on the women's tours in Japan and her native Korea.
She compiled 43 wins in Asia over a quarter of a century of competition and held the record for most wins in a Korean LPGA season with five until Jiyai Shin won seven times in 2007. She was the first player inducted into the KLPGA Hall of Fame, and served as the president of the KLPGA in 2011-2012.
''Ok-Hee Ku was a pioneer for women's golf and a role model to players across many countries,'' said LPGA Commissioner Michael Whan in a statement [2]. ''We are deeply saddened to learn of her death and offer our sincerest condolences to her family and friends. She made the world of women's golf a better place.''

An attempt was made to correlate population fluctuations of an isolated population of the citrus psylla,Trioza erytreae (Del Guercio) (Hemiptera: Triozidae), with both the availability of young developing leaves and the saturation deficit index. Citrus psylla population dynamics seems to be governed by more than these two factors. There were significant positive correlations among egg, nymph and adult numbers. Increases in the minimum temperature and minimum relative humidity were followed by increases in the numbers of adults, eggs and nymphs. Seedlings of four citrus cultivars which seem to be less attractive to adult psylla than the other cultivars were identified.

Can Diabetic Nerve Decompression Have An Impact?
The treatment of patients with diabetes and associated complications has been extensively studied. Over the past several decades, the treatment of foot and ankle ailments in patients with diabetes has dramatically shifted from conservative measures of "do not perform surgery" to the present day thinking that has taught us that diabetic feet are not very different from normal feet.
The most common misconception with diabetic foot ailments has been that the loss of limbs is due to severe vascular problems. However, with time, we have found that vascular issues in the diabetic foot are less problematic than previously suggested and less common than suspected. Often, the ulcer formation is the result of neuropathy and a lack of sensation.
What has been of interest is that the major cause of peripheral limb loss among patients with diabetes is due to peripheral neuropathy and loss of protective sensation. In the past, the prevailing thinking on protective sensation loss in patients with diabetes was that it was irreversible, symmetrical and progressive. With time, there has been an increased interest in the surgical decompression of diabetic limbs in order to decrease pain and increase sensation. Although much controversy still exists, more and more doctors are beginning to understand the philosophy and potential for a chronic nerve compression of the diabetic limb.
During my residency, I spent a great deal of time with several hand surgeons. The surgeons performed a very large number of carpal tunnel releases in diabetic patients and never doubted the fact that carpal tunnel may be possible in a patient with diabetes. Now when I think back to the nerves, they were often flattened and swollen beyond normal levels with internal scarring. The diabetic nerves often were far larger and more swollen than the nerves of patients who did not have diabetes. I believe surgical decompression is a revolutionary treatment with excellent potential. However, it is essential to look at each case and weigh the benefits and risks of surgery versus conservative care.
In regard to surgical decompression, the largest study group to date is part of the Neuropathy Foundation of the Southwest with 200 or so surgeons, and over 2,000 cases logged to date. Overall, they have achieved, on average, an 80 percent improvement in pain and a 70 percent improvement in sensation among the study group patients with a positive Tinel sign over the involved nerve release sites. The results for pain relief and sensation restoration dip to 50 and 55 percent, respectively, in the groups with no Tinel sign noted.
What The Studies Have Revealed About The Etiology Of Diabetic Peripheral Nerve Compression

Do not stand at my grave and weep. Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep is a poem written in 1932 by Mary Elizabeth Frye.

The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe Illustrated by Gustave Doré.

"'T is some visiter," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door— Only this, and nothing more. " Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrow:—vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore— For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore— Nameless here for evermore.

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumious Bandersnatch!

And, as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, And burbled as it came! One, two!

It's Rooney versus Rory, golf versus football, as two of the biggest stars in the world clash on the golf course, and McIlroy has told us that he enjoyed sharing the course with one of his footballing heroes.
McIlroy has just been handed a fresh new bag of Nike equipment, which obviously works well as he captured his first title of 2013 at the Australian Open this week.
To showcase the release of their new Ordem football, Nike pitted Rooney against two-time major winner McIlroy as they both showed their skills in their respective sports around Mottram Hall golf course in Cheshire.
Manchester United fan McIlroy told Sky Sports that he enjoyed having a kickabout with Rooney and talking about the pressures of being at the top of their respective sports.
"We had a bit of fun, had a bit of banter back and forth and it got quite competitive in the end, but it was really fun to shoot," McIlroy told Sky Sports.
"Wayne is one of my favourite footballers, I'm a big Manchester united fan so to be able to spend the day with him and have some fun like that was cool.
"We talked about a few things, he gave me an insight into what his life's like and how he trains and the everyday goings on at Manchester united which was really interesting for me.
"I shared a little bit with him gave him a few tips on his golf and we had a kick about with the football as well so all in all it was a good day."
Find out for yourself who came out on top when the two sporting stars went head-to-head, and how did McIlroy get on in his kickabout with the England star?

For those who don't use the League wiki, (this is my source) these are the champions are possibly getting reworks. Gameplay Rework
Ev0xal Huntchez
You forgot: Deletion
this is quite..... informative here are Viktor sources http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/....php?t=2428990
Just to poke at some stuff here: Poppy "may" get a remake, but dont expect it any time soon. Like maybe S4 if were lucky. Sej and Viktor aren't getting remade so much as having their kits looked at in depth and getting some major tweaks. Such as the upcoming change of a second upgrade to viktors passive and as for Sej, maybe a change on how her passive works with tenacity. Rengar is not getting a remake. He came out like 4 months ago. I'm sorry, but hes just not getting one. All your other ones are correct because their super old champs that need some change in graphics (pyramid feet). And Heimer and Karma have had their remakes known for a long time. But as a whole, your thread is pretty helpful.
Since I am still missing a few sources a bump is needed.

Business groups raised alarms Thursday about a provision in the recently enacted government spending bill that makes it harder for some federal agencies to buy technology made in China.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and 10 trade groups representing some large U.S. tech companies, including Hewlett-Packard Co. and Intel Corp., fired off a letter Thursday asking congressional leaders to ensure future spending bills don't include the language.

Rafa Benitez has hinted at already knowing of his destination for next season, commenting on his future that he 'knows things'.
The former Valencia boss is currently in the interim position at Chelsea until the end of the season, but is speculated as on his way out of they can bring in Pep Guardiola next summer.
Similarly, Benitez has also been linked with finding future work himself, with Real Madrid a suggested option that might be open.
"When I accepted Chelsea's proposal, it was because I felt it was a good option. I study the market to see what options there are and when they occur," the tactician told Onda Cero this week, in explaining why he accepted the short-term contract.
"When you wait for a good team, you have to anticipate that your chance comes because of a bad moment for them.
"My future? I know things, but I will not say anything about Real Madrid, because I do not think that I should."
The Coach has not been well received by the Stamford Bridge crowd, for his past with Liverpool which included criticisms of the London side.
"I have a challenge at Chelsea to win things and do well, it is a matter of time to convince the majority. If we win then it will be easier to convince them. I'm very calm.
"Sometimes I do not understand the chants against me. I'm focused on the game and do not know what happens in the stands, but I have never said that I would never train a team like Chelsea."
Benitez is back in England with Chelsea after losing the Club World Cup Final to Corinthians last weekend.
"It was the third final being disputed and I wanted to give it a lot of emphasis. It makes me laugh when specialists from Spain collect videos and talk about the games in England and only know half of it.
"Corinthians had 15 days training there just for that game."

Okay, I heard the best thing today. In the tradition of the term "fag hag" I have now heard..."dyke tyke." A straight man that hangs out with lesbians. I thought it was cool. I told my gay guy friend about it and said that since technically I can't be a fag hag either, since I'm not straight, we could bend the rules and make him a dyke tyke. He proceeded to tell me that I'm not a dyke, because I'm bi. I was wondering if anyone else knows what I mean when I say that I identify as a dyke who just happens to also be attracted to men. I just find myself more at home within the gay community. I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this particular issue.
well what would you call a gay guy that exclusivly
chases after and seduces woman?
i KNOW i am gay, but i still can't help the fun in chasing and
getting girls for the fun and pleasure of it.
just to know that i can do it and to spite straight guys that
patheticly try too hard.
a womanizing homosexual? (:"
that sounds really selfish...you obviously know that you're charming and seductive, so what more do you need to gain from that?
Hmm...I don't know what to call that. But you're not the only one of those I know, believe me.

A Harker Heights apartment caught on fire Saturday afternoon.
The fire got out of hand at the four-plex on the 200 block of West Robin Lake, after Killeen and Harker Heights Fire Departments tried to put the fire out just before 3 pm.
Officials say Red Cross was working with the 15 people who were displaced from their homes as a result.
As of today, fire officials say the cause of the fire is still under investigation.

Newport News Man sentenced for Heroin Conspiracy
NEWPORT NEWS, Va. – Marc Derek Johnson, 49 of Brooklyn, New York was sentenced today to 23 years in prison for his participation as the heroin supplier to a drug trafficking organization that distributed heroin throughout the Virginia Peninsula. Neil H. MacBride, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, made the announcement after sentencing by United States District Judge Rebecca Beach Smith.
According to court documents, Marc Johnson obtained heroin for the organization in New York City and arranged for couriers to transport the heroin from New York City to "Table Top" locations in the cities of Newport News and Hampton. These "Table Top" locations were used to store, cut and package bulk heroin into glassine bags for distribution in the cities of Newport News, Hampton, Poquoson, and Williamsburg and in the counties of Gloucester, James City, Mathews, Middlesex and York. As part of the sentence imposed, Marc Johnson forfeited a 2008 Mercedes Benz GL 450, and agreed to a monetary judgment of $1,500,000.00 based on the gross proceeds from the criminal activity.
This case was investigated by an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) led by the FBI's Norfolk Division, and the investigative team that including Newport News Police Department, the Virginia State Police, the Hampton Police Division, the Poquoson Police Department, the Department of Veterans Affairs Office the Inspector General, Criminal Investigations Division, and the United States Army, Criminal Investigations Division. Assistant United States Attorney Laura P. Tayman prosecuted the case on behalf of the United States.

Beastie Boy Adam Yauch's Will Says 'No Advertising'
Fans of the Beastie Boys will never need to worry about hearing "No Sleep Till Brooklyn" in a DayQuil commercial or "Brass Monkey" in a spot for Brass Monkey. The last will and testament belonging to founding member Adam "MCA" Yauch — who died in May after a battle with cancer — reportedly contains a clause that bars advertisers from using his music, likeness, or any art he's created in connection with hawking products. We hope this means no commercials where he'll be dancing with a vacuum (like the decade-passed Fred Astaire in 1997) or praising diet cola (like the 20-years-dead Louis Armstrong somehow did in '91), and certainly no shoe ads like the ones that featured Kurt Cobain, Joey Ramone, and Joe Strummer a few years ago. It's unclear, though, whether his bandmates could supersede the clause.
"Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event may my image or name or any music or any artistic property created by me be used for advertising purposes," reads a copy of the will, according to Rolling Stone. The phrase "or any music or any artistic property created by me" was reportedly added in handwriting.
Look back at Yauch's career in classic Beastie Boys photos.
The will also reportedly stipulates that the artist is leaving $6.4 million, earned from his work with the Beastie Boys and his indie film distro Oscilloscope, go into a trust for his wife, Dechen, and 13-year-old daughter, Tenzin. It also names Dechen the executor of his estate.
The news about advertising is particularly timely, though, considering the Beastie Boys are currently going head-to-head with an energy drink company who put together a 24-song mega mix for a viral campaign.
In 1984, an airline company sampled the song "Beastie Revolution," off the group's "Cooky Puss" single, earning them a reported $40,000 in court. Doug Pomeroy, who engineered the single, recalled in an interview, "The Beasties gave me one fourth of the award, since I gave the lawyers a tape which absolutely proved British Airways had used the Beastie's recording. I put the commercial on one channel of a cassette tape (heavily edited), and the Beastie's record on the other track, and synchronized them perfectly." The band used their earnings to rent an apartment in New York at 59 Chrystie Street, an address immortalized on their album Paul's Boutique.

text: i was outside washing my car today and 2 of the neighborhood kids come up to me saying their import civic ex can beat me, they always talk sh!t when they see me, so i take them for a ride around the block. They quickly lose the idea that their civic has a chance in hell. But then they go on saying they have this friend with this mustang that runs 10's, im like of god do these kids ever stop! they say he will race you for $500 bucks. i say ok we'll go to the track and race. I didnt think they actually had a friend with a fast stang, cause they all drive imports. Then today this older guy (maybe 35 or so) comes up to my door with the 2 kids, he says so i hear you wanna race. I was taken off guard but said "sure, are you the guy with the stang". He confirmed he was. He apparently has a 90 mustang 5.0 5 speed with bolt ons (wouldnt get specific as to what bolt ons) but made clear to me its all stock internals + a 100 shot of NOS skinnys up front and slicks in the back. He wanted me to turn my car on ( bone stock 98 trans am a4) so i can give him a few revs. He wouldnt say what he runs but the kids claim 10's which is almost impossible for a 90 5.0 without major engine work, even with the 100 shot i think. My question is what would a 5.0 with all the bolt ons imaginable and a 100 shot possibly run, i mean fastest possible? low 12's would be my thought? He wants to race next week at moroso, what do u guys think i should get in terms of mods to beat this guy. I know its hard to say without knowing exactly what he has but just some possible ideas. Thanks in advance

Way to go, girl! Our several households, at least, if not thousands throughout Sonoma Valley, are proud of you.
We're speaking, of course, to Heather Pond, that fresh face and peppy personality from Sonoma who graced "Love in the Wild." The inaugural run ended last week for the new television reality show set in stunning Costa Rica, proving itself a refreshing change from the negative fare that we find on most reality shows.
All of Sonoma, it seems, knows about Ben Flajnik, who "lost" just the week before on the latest installment of the Bachelor/Bachelorette show. That program seems to call out the predatory worst in its contestants. We did watch this summer out of loyalty to our locale – Ben was another of Sonoma's own – but we cringed at the secrecy, superficiality, and, dare we say, promiscuity that characterizes that show.
We're glad, actually, that Ben was saved from trying to make a life with the self-absorbed Ashley, who brazenly led the poor boy to believe she'd choose him. In the end, she had not even the decency to save Ben from embarrassing himself with a bended-knee proposal on national TV that she had no intention of accepting. It's our expectation that Ben will comport himself with greater honor if he becomes the next Bachelor himself, as is widely rumored.
In contrast, Love in the Wild has a healthy format. It's still a contest, but each of the couples is trying to work together – a positive thing – openly competing with the other couples in outdoor, active endeavors – also positive – with no incentive to speak ill of those others – positive again.
True, some of the contestants were boors, or worse, but the format isolated and weeded them out most quickly. Heather and her love interest Miles, from Minnesota, showed real care and concern for each other, finding ways, as did the winning couple, to overcome the physical and emotional obstacles they encountered. While runners-up Heather and Miles didn't win the round-the-world trip, both happily agreed when the show's host asked if finding each other weren't prize enough.
We don't know where this will lead for Heather – how she and Miles will guide their budding romance. We do know, though, that she deserves her newly-grown popularity with men and women alike. Like so many others, we hope this isn't the last we see of Heather.

Crew Cut: Gearing Up for the Future and Paying Tribute to the Past - Plus an Emblem Auteur and More
We haven't detailed the features of Grand Theft Auto V's online mode as yet (stay tuned for first info soon), but there's already a whole slew of Crews rallying, preparing and raring to go - with some creating some pretty impressive emblems along the way inspired by the artwork and information we've revealed about the game thus far. In today's edition of the Crew Cut, we take a look at early field of GTAV Crews out there preparing for West Coast domination later this year.
Established nearly a year ago when we first rolled out the Crews system, The GTA V FIVE Crew (GTAV) are one of the longest-running and also the highest-achieving with the most wins we've seen out the V Crews carrying 327 total and a win percentage of 60% throughout all their bouts playing Max Payne 3. needyday31468 is the star of this PS3 Crew with 3,955,250 XP, livelyweek95346 is in second with 3,893,778 and lumpy80011 has 2,475,585 XP. Over the last month, they've had a tight Feud with The YRA Crew (featured in our last edition), winning three Feuds a-piece while just edging them out with 38 kills to 37. Just a one digit differential, but enough to tip the scales in GTA V FIVE Crew's favor.
Or maybe you're an aspiring squad just trying to get a rep and have your sights on a top class Crew like Clubber Lang eyeing up the champ.
Either or, what better way to find out who has the better chops than doing so in a live stream via the official Rockstar Twitch page. While we are no longer accepting Crew vs, Rockstar challenges and are now hosting Crew vs Crew grudge matches, each Crew will get one of our skilled R* players on their side for the duration of the stream in order to facilitate the live stream and to keep things fair. We're already finalizing some battle details with a couple Crews out there - including the mighty FAHQ is ready to take their ever-flaring Feud with AGNT to the ol' free-per-view broadcast - we're just waiting to hear back from the latter (that's a nudge in your direction, Agency). GeNeSis x (IPRO) has also let us know that they want to throw the gauntlet to the Murders Death Kill Crew (MMDK) so, MMDK, you've been challenged. Hit us up at email@example.com and we'll let you settle things on the battlefield.

"We're always aiming to ship all our games on all platforms at the same time," Unity producer Lesley Phord-Toy told RPS. "I don't have any specific news on the PC version of Assassin's Creed Unity, but I do know we're planning on shipping on all three [platforms]: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. I haven't heard any news differently than that."
Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag hit PCs three weeks after the console versions launched last year, and Assassin's Creed 3 missed its planned October 2012 release date. Phord-Toy blamed the series' previous delays on the fact that PC platforms have "a variety of different hardware configurations that you can't necessarily predict."
Assassin's Creed Unity will premiere on October 28, 2014.

Luxury Travel With No Planning
A very common complaint we get from the thousands of fans on our Roaming Boomers Facebook Page is the amount of time it takes the typical baby boomer to plan a luxury vacation.
Not only does it require hours and hours of work, but, having never been to your planned exotic location, you have no idea where to stay, where to eat, or what to do. Right?
Let me ask you a question. Which of these two options would you prefer:
- You spend hours and hours planning your vacation and hope you got it all right.
- You spend roughly the same amount of money, but an experienced travel concierge, who knows your destination well, does all the planning, and has great ideas of where to stay, where to eat, and what to do?
Mrs. Roaming Boomers can tell you from her vast experience that it takes her literally weeks to study, plan, and orchestrate each of our trips. She spends untold hours shopping for the right airline, the right hotel/resort, the right restaurants, the right destination experiences, and building out our daily travel itinerary.
It's a lot of work!
Last year, Delta Vacations invited us to travel to the Dominican Republic to experience the travel concierge experience offered through their luxury division (link to our trip). I can't begin to tell you how much time we saved. Furthermore, we experienced luxury perks that we simply would not have obtained on our own.
This year, Delta Vacations has invited us back. Only this time, we're flying across the pond to London, England. Yabba Dabba Doooo!
Let me share with you our experience thus far:
- Right off the bat, Nita, a Delta Vacations luxury concierge called to get us started.
- Once she identified our desired travel dates, she presented us with a list of culled luxury hotels. With a quick peek through our own resources, we found that these hotels were the absolute best of the best.
- Once we identified our desired hotel, she then presented us with a list of tours to the area's most famous and historic sites, as well as a long list of world-class London theater.
From our past experience, we knew that Delta Vacations did everything first class, so our job was merely saying, "we pick this, this, and this". Delta Vacations made the airline reservations, booked the hotels, booked the tours, and even booked a night out at one of London's famous theaters.
Let me tell you, Mrs. Roaming Boomers was very happy. This is far, far easier than doing it yourself. We just wish Delta Vacations would invite us to travel with them every month. How sweet would that be?
Here's what's included when you book with luxury vacation with Delta Vacations:
- Personal attention of a Delta Vacations luxury concierge

Planning a luxury trip in the United States can be a daunting experience. However, planning a luxury vacation over seas brings another whole series of complications. Delta Vacations has made it very simple, and they have done all the work. Sweet!
So, let's say you've decided to visit London for the 2012 Summer Olympics, or perhaps the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. If you're not spending any more money to have Delta Vacations do all the work, doesn't it make sense to do so?
We think so!
Now, we've only talked about Delta Vacations because that has been our only experience with airline luxury travel. And, as you know, we only talk about what we've experienced.
If another airline comes-a-knockin', we'll let you know about it and compare the experiences.
In the meantime, stay tuned for our coming articles as we experience another Delta Vacation from London, England!

text: Institute of Geography and Geology, Department of Physical Geography, University of Würzburg, Am Hubland, 97074 Würzburg, Germany Abstract. This study aimed to optimise the application, efficiency and interpretability of quasi-3D resistivity imaging for investigating the heterogeneous permafrost distribution at mountain sites by a systematic forward modelling approach. A three dimensional geocryologic model, representative for most mountain permafrost settings, was developed. Based on this geocryologic model quasi-3D models were generated by collating synthetic orthogonal 2D arrays, demonstrating the effects of array types and electrode spacing on resolution and interpretability of the inversion results. The effects of minimising the number of 2D arrays per quasi-3D grid were tested by enlarging the spacing between adjacent lines and by reducing the number of perpendicular tie lines with regard to model resolution and loss of information value. Synthetic and measured quasi-3D models were investigated with regard to the lateral and vertical resolution, reliability of inverted resistivity values, the possibility of a quantitative interpretation of resistivities and the response of the inversion process on the validity of quasi-3D models. Results show that setups using orthogonal 2D arrays with electrode spacings of 2 m and 3 m are capable of delineating lateral heterogeneity with high accuracy and also deliver reliable data on active layer thickness. Detection of permafrost thickness, especially if the permafrost base is close to the penetration depth of the setups, and the reliability of absolute resistivity values emerged to be a weakness of the method. Quasi-3D imaging has proven to be a promising tool for investigating permafrost in mountain environments especially for delineating the often small-scale permafrost heterogeneity, and therefore provides an enhanced possibility for aligning permafrost distribution with site specific surface properties and morphological settings.
