Country of Origin: The Pomeranian (also known as the Pom, Toy German Spitz, Deutscher Zwergspitz, or Zwers) descends from sled dogs of Greenland. Pomerania is a district directly south of the Baltic Sea spanning modern day Germany and Poland, where the majority of the Pomeranians development was done in the 8th century. It was bred for a thick coat and small size, but still weighed 9-14 kg (20-30 lbs) when imported to England. In England, the Pomeranians size was successfully reduced further and a variety of colors was developed. Queen Charlotte and Queen Victoria helped popularize the Pomeranian in England in the 1700s and 1800s, particularly Queen Victoria with her Pomeranian Marco which she brought back from Florence, Italy. The Pomeranian was recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1900 and since then has continued to shrink in size and develop a more 'powder-puff' appearance. Today it is a popular pet and show dog and the smallest breed of Northern origin. Famous Pomeranian owners are a diverse group including Michelangelo (his Pomeranian watched him paint the Sistine Chapel), Sir Isaac Newton (his Pomeranian once knocked over a candle on one of his important scientific works as he labored upon it), Paris Hilton (her Pomeranian is frequently dressed in matching outfits), and Nicole Richie (her Pomeranian was named after a character in Austin Powers in GoldmemberFoxxy Cleopatra). Size: The Pomeranian has a shoulder height of 18-28 cm (7-11 in) and weighs 1.5-3 kg (3-7 lbs). It has a wedge-shaped head, small, highly-set, erect ears, and almond-shaped eyes. Pomeranians have a short neck, small feet, and breed characteristic highly-set tail carried over the back, which may take a few months to grow out and flatten. Under its coat, the Pomeranian is somewhat similar in appearance to the Chihuahua. Its head and legs should be in proper proportion to the body. Coat: The Pomeranian has a soft, fluffy outer coat and long, coarse undercoat. Pomeranians can be black, blue, or chocolate, all with and without tan, and cream, orange, or red, all solid or sable. Other possible colors are regular sable, chocolate sable, wolf sable, Parti-color (usually white with another color), white, beaver, or brindle. In other words, just about anything but pink with blue stripes. The male Pomeranian sheds once a year and the female sheds when in heat or after giving birth. Character: The Pomeranian is an energetic, intelligent dog which is eager to learn and very loyal to its family. It is active and confident. Pomeranians bark at suspicious activity and can be trained to make excellent watchdogs. They enjoy cuddling up for a nap or running around like crazy, sometimes both in the same minute. Temperament: The Pomeranian gets along well with other dogs and household pets, especially if socialized at a young age. However, it does not tolerate mistreatment and will not enjoy too much attention from young children, as rough play may cause it to grow frustrated and bite. Pomeranians are suspicious of strangers, but will grow used to them when they understand that no danger is presented. Care: The Pomeranian should be brushed several times a week and bathed only as necessary. Proper dental hygiene is also important; a weekly tooth brushing is required at a minimum, but daily brushing is optimal. The Pomeranian has a lifespan of 12-16 years, though some live as long as 20 years. Common health problems are luxating patella (dislocated knee), patent ductus arteriosus (a heart defect), and collapsed trachea. The Pomeranian may reverse sneeze, which is a fit of gasping and snorting to remove fluid caught under the palate. This is not dangerous, but may frighten the Pomeranian and its owner; it should be handled by talking to the Pomeranian calmly and gently rubbing its throat. Training: The intelligence of the Pomeranian makes training fairly easy. Pomeranians must be trained when young not to bark excessively. Pomeranians should also be trained not to linger at their owners feet, for risk of being stepped on and injured. Activity: Indoor games, short walks, and playtime in the yard are sufficient activity to keep a Pomeranian happy. It is well suited to apartment life.

Fed court says Texas may have discriminated against Hispanics
POSTED: Friday, December 23, 2011 - 10:54am
UPDATED: Friday, December 23, 2011 - 4:32pm
AUSTIN, Texas — The federal court in Washington says there are genuine issues of whether or not Texas Republicans intentionally discriminated against Hispanics in redrawing the state's political maps.
Texas is one of 16 states covered by the Voting Rights Act and must get federal approval for any changes to voting laws. The Texas attorney general asked the Washington court to approve the new maps drawn this year by the Legislature. But the Justice Department and Texas minority groups argue the maps were discriminatory and asked the court to hold a trial.
The court refused to approve the maps last month and set a trial date. The court released its analysis of the case late Thursday saying there is evidence of discrimination.
The court scheduled the trial for Jan. 17.
Comments News Comments
We can see what 50 years of telling one group that they are special and entitled has done to them and the country; and now the court seems ready to repeat that tragedy with another group. There is no future in guaranteeing special treatment to this or that group; all it does is cause division and resentment: can you say BALKANS???

Reynolds heir blows smoke in tobacco industry's eyes
PATRICK REYNOLDS is the ultimate tobacco-industry diversification. This grandson of tobacco king R.J. Reynolds has beaten his cigarettes into audiocassettes so people will learn smoking no more.
Mr. Reynolds sold his tobacco stock several years ago and now promotes tapes that aim to help people stop smoking.
That's a little like the scion of a New England slave-trading family taking up abolitionism, or a bootlegger's boy taking the pledge.
Reynolds likens American tobacco-company efforts to market cigarettes abroad, while smoking in the United States declines, to ``a new opium trade.''
``It's a product as addictive as heroin,'' he said, spearing some pasta for emphasis at lunch here. ``We have one set of standards for our own citizens, and another set of standards for foreign peoples.''
Such sharp comments, coupled with his family name and a photogenic presence honed by his acting career, give Reynolds unique stature as drum major for the anti-smoking movement.
And he's riding high in a year that has seen a report from Surgeon General C. Everett Koop that found cigarettes can be addictive and a historic jury decision in New Jersey that found a cigarette company partly responsible for a woman's death.
A wave of hundreds of local smoking ordinances continues to swell across the US, including a recent one in Chicago where typically combative aldermen were photographed defiantly lighting up in the City Council chamber.
Oregon voters will rule on a strengthened indoor pollution measure in November, while a California referendum will seek to raise cigarette taxes, with some of the proceeds going to medical research.
Meanwhile, antismoking advocates hope that they will have the votes in Congress next year to pass the Luken bill and follow Canada's lead by banning the promotion and advertising of cigarettes. The bill would also ban vending-machine cigarette sales and includes other measures as well.

Ernakulam has pipped other districts to clinch the top spot in terms of collection under the compounding scheme introduced by the State government to settle undervaluation cases in the registration department dating back to 1986.
Since the scheme was introduced in August 25, 2012, the district has settled 14,846 pending cases spread over 25 sub-registrar offices and collected Rs.3.85 crore till Tuesday.
The registration department has been organising adalats almost on a monthly basis in sub-registrar offices to give defaulters an opportunity to avoid paying hefty fines and facing revenue recovery proceedings for undervaluation of property at the time of registration.
Ernakulam sub-registrar office tops the list in the district collecting Rs.55.39 lakh in settlement of 966 cases. This was unsurprising considering the astronomically high land values within the limits of the office.
In keeping with its emerging status as an alternative business hub to the city, Edappally came second by realising Rs. 33.43 lakh in 736 cases.
Maradu, which was upgraded in to a municipality from panchayat in 2010, has come third with Rs. 23.45 lakh from 594 cases.
Thrikkakara, which is fast emerging as the IT and commercial hub, collected Rs. 22.48 lakh in settlement of 1,147 cases.
The perceived disparity in the number of cases settled and the amount collected can be attributed to the fact that Thrikkakara was a panchayat till 2010 when it was elevated into a municipality.
The stamp duty is considerably lower in panchayat areas compared to corporations and municipalities.
Kochi sub-registrar office, which collected Rs. 21.38 lakh from 739 cases, Paravur sub registrar office with Rs. 20.52 lakh in 896 cases, Tripunithura with Rs. 18.02 lakh from 626 cases, Muvattupuzha with Rs. 17.89 lakh from 771 cases, Angamaly with Rs. 16.96 lakh from 645 cases, and Perumbavur sub registrar office, which collected Rs. 16.12 lakh from 743 cases completed the top 10 list.
The adalat held across all 25 sub registrar offices on Tuesday reaped Rs. 46.54 lakh in settlement of 1,892 cases in to the government kitty.
Ernakulam, Maradu, and Thrikkakara sub registrar offices made top contribution with Rs. 8.44 lakh, Rs. 4.93 lakh, and Rs. 3.73 lakh respectively.
The compounding scheme will be in force till March 2014 after which revenue recovery proceedings will be initiated against the defaulters.

So i made Orfy's Hobgoblin clone around the end of may, and left it in a closet for 3 months. Just kegged it up not too long ago. The beer is fantastic. its one of the best beers I think Ive made yet, but it doesnt taste like Hobgoblin. not at all really. the thing tastes like a wheat beer and I have absolutely no idea why.... Can anyone help me figure out what would cause this to taste like a wheat when there was absolutely no wheat used in making it...? haha thanks
What kind of yeast did you use? Typically the flavors associated with wheat beers are actually produced by the yeast. Or are you specifically tasting wheat malt?
I had this happen with Biermuncher's Centennial Blonde. It ended up tasting like a boulevard, and the only thing I really screwed up was end up a little under volume.
I used Wyeast London ESB for yeast. The wheat flavours are dissapearing now, but it was still very strange.
That's must an impossible question to answer as I've never had a wheat beer not brewed with wheat beer yeast. I have a lot to learn.
Yo, What's Wrong With The Beer We Got? I Mean the Beer we got drank pretty Good Don't It? I Ain't Never Heard nobody complain about the beer we have..... It Drank Pretty Good. Budweiser...What's the name of some of them other beers ?
I've gotten a little butterscotch from London ESB before. Could that be what you were tasting?
sounds like maybe you're used to the american wheats. there's some flavor resemblance with them and a green esb, at least to me
Taps: 1: Empty 2: Scottish Export 80 3: Hef-wit Fermenting: English Mild, Cabernet Sauvignon, Barkshack Mead
You may have gotten some phenolics if the temperature was a bit high during fermentation. What temp did you ferment at, and how do you control the temp?

Anyone charging that Olbermann's show was equivalent to Beck's clearly hasn't watched either. Olbermann wasn't objective, but he was honest about it. His show was well-researched; it relied on facts to make progressive points.
It's not so much that Olbermann (whose final broadcast on MSNBC occurred Friday) had strong opinions, it's that he was strong on the facts. He corrected every mistake, a rarity on cable news.

The program allows a participant to contribute up to $5,000 per family annually on a pre-tax basis as a payroll deduction. For taxpayers in a 28% income tax bracket, a $5,000 contribution to the DCAP would save an estimated $1,400 in Federal and State taxes.
Eligibility and Monthly Fee
Active state employees, including contractors, who work half-time or more and have employment-related expenses for a dependent child under the age of 13 and/or an adult dependent are eligible for DCAP benefits.
For the 2015 calendar year, the monthly administrative fee for DCAP alone, HCSA alone, or HCSA and DCAP combined will be $2.50 on a pre-tax basis effective January 1, 2015.

The Superman Suit that Henry Cavill will wear in the much-anticipated Superman: Man Of Steel movie has already gained reaction, but none that could be considered controversial - that is until the newest photos were released earlier this week. They reveal a Superman in a suit that's skin-tight, and for some reason seems to glorify a bulge - and that's probably the best way to put it.
This blogger, visiting his Mom in Atlanta, could not resist covering DragonCon; the perfect place to ask fans for their reaction to the new costume. DragonCon is the one place where fanboys and fangirls most likely to see the new Superman movie, and have seen past versions of Superman, will be.
The results of my interviews, as you can see in the video, were totally hilarious.
The most dramatic reaction was from two Atlanta women dressed as Batgirl and "Harley Quinn," an Arkham City escapee. "Batgirl" just screamed when I showed her the photo of Henry Cavill / Superman that's, shall we say, full-body in view. Saying "NO" and "Bad Batman," and her classic, "He's got a cock ring," "Batgirl" could not hide her displeasure with the new suit. Meanwhile, "Harley Quinn" seemed to enjoy both the suit, and her friend's reactions.
The conversation about the suit drew a crowd, with the eventual verdict being that it's too racy for Superman, and not the direction the character should be taken in.
Between women and men, about half the women I talked to were conflicted, both turned-on, yet turned-off at the same time. Most of the men, including myself, thought it was hilariously unnecessary, but one man used the photo to signal that he liked men to start with.
Three women who were walking through the Hyatt Regency Hotel to just gawk at the costumed DragonCon goers were the best example of a kind of dual reaction from women. They arguably represent a mainstream audience that will go and see the movie, even with this image.
The suit is certainly a departure, but it would seem it takes Superman into what two separate women described as "porn." Why Zack Snyder and Chris Nolan elected to do this is the question. For some reason, I doubt they see it that way.
Stay tuned.

I have been teaching private violin for over 20 years, and private viola/cello for about 10. I have taught in Charles and St. Mary's County Public schools. I am a member of American Strings Teacher's Association, National Association for Music Educators (Maryland Music Educators Association), and the Music Teachers National Association (Music Teachers Association of Charles County). As a teacher, I'm very student oriented. We move at your pace. The more you practice, the faster we move. I do encourage learning to read music, but I use multiple ways of teaching to reach my students. Everyone learns in a different way. My primary job is to see you achieve your goals in relation to your instrument. I also encourage that you take every opportunity to perform. There are many groups in the ...
As a voice teacher and voice coach I strive to help the student get to where they want to be vocally. For me singing is something that brings me joy and I hope to be able to share that with you. It took me a while to realize how much music and singing means to me. While studying something entirely different at the University of Maryland, I began studying voice and realized that it was something that I had a gift for. I fell in love with singing art songs, jazz and opera arias. And while studying at the University of Maryland, I had the opportunity to work as a voice teacher/ section leader with the women's section of a choir, numerous opportunities to work as a soloist and in a few jazz clubs. I was also involved in dance performances and acted as a dance tutor. Later, when I ...
I believe everyone has the ability to sing … some better than others, of course, -- but regardless, I believe every voice can make a beautiful sound. I believe learning to sing requires team work: with the proper instruction and learning tools from me, the instructor, and with the dedication (practice, practice, practice) from you, the student, a well-rounded singer can emerge. I began singing when I was five years old in church. I continued singing exclusively inspirational music until I was a teenager. At that time, in addition to the second soprano part I sang in a five-part harmony a Capella (without instrumental accompaniment) Gospel group, I also sang in a couple of bands (Rhythm and Blues, and Jazz). My undergraduate studies were completed at the American University, ...
Samantha H. began her cello studies at the age of eight in Sacramento, CA. She later earned a Bachelor of Music degree from California State University Sacramento where she studied with Andrew Luchansky. She then went on to complete a Master of Music degree and Graduate Performance Diploma from Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore, MD, studying with Jeffrey Solow, Alan Stepansky, and David Hardy. Samantha has performed in Italy, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, and England, as well as in the U.S. She attended Kneisel Hall Chamber Music School and Festival in Blue Hill, ME and has played in cello and chamber music master classes with Steven Doane, Mihaly Virizlay, Ronald Copes (of the Juilliard Quartet), the Alexander Quartet, and Seymour Lipkin. She has performed with indie folk ...
My interest in music began when I was about 8 years old and learned to play the piano. A few years later, I joined the middle school band and fell in love with the trombone. I've played the trombone almost everyday for 17 years and I'm now a member of the prestigious US Air Force Band in Washington D.C. I have a passion for teaching that is rarely matched. I love seeing the light bulb turn on when a student begins to understand specific concepts that unlock the next level of musicianship. This inspires me to keep inspiring the student! I'm one of the most patient teachers, not minding if a student is working hard but has trouble grasping something. I'll work through it many different ways until it clicks. I taught freshman level music theory and ear-training at the ...

Gov. Cuomo's NY-Sun Competitive Solar Program Off to a Bright Start
March 28, 2013 – Albany, NY – Governor Cuomo's NY-Sun Competitive PV Program is drawing strong participation from New York energy customers and solar developers. In a successful first round, the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) awarded $46 million for 76 large-scale projects totaling 52 megawatts (MW) of new solar capacity, enough to power nearly 9,000 New York homes. Solar advocates and industry applauded the early results of the program and the state's continued commitment to bringing reliable clean power and local solar jobs to New York.
Americans Want More Emphasis on Solar, Wind, Natural Gas
No fewer than two in three Americans want the U.S. to put more emphasis on producing domestic energy using solar power (76%), wind (71%), and natural gas (65%). Far fewer want to emphasize the production of oil (46%) and the use of nuclear power (37%). Least favored is coal, with about one in three Americans wanting to prioritize its domestic production.

Serial monitoring
December 16, 2012
Does anybody know of a decent freebie transparent serial monitor? I've been having some trouble with processing and arduino, (see this), and I'd like to be able to compare what processing and the arduino terminal are sending so I can find the problem.
Thans in advance.
a bit more
There is a slight possibility that you will need to wire that extra FTDI board via a couple 10k resistors. This will allow the main connection to "speak louder" than the extra FTDI.
No resistors needed
That's the extra serial port method I was referring to. Except, you only connect the RxD line on the new serial ports to each TxD line on the PC and Arduino ports. That way you don't have two transmitters duelling for control.
The expensive part is the dedicated hardware solution, usually called a protocol analyzer. Cheap ones are usually a few hundred dollars. They go up from there.
Two USB to serial adapters would be a good solution. I didn't even think of that. I was thinking more built-in serial ports. Thanks.
Expensive? No more than the cost of 2 jumpers
If the above is true and you are looking to keep an eye on your serial tranmissions (mid-stream), I would suggest simply adding a couple jumper wires to the RX and TX lines of your arduino. Add another FTDI board (and thus, another serial port to your computer) and monitor away. The processing and arduino should talk just like they normally have, but you can open a terminal program via this extra FTDI com port and see what is going on.
Yes. I know this one
If you are looking for a terminal program that is not a total piece of crap, you are looking for the Paralax Serial Terminal. I have no idea why people keep suggesting Putty and hyperterm and the like --they are all total junk.
PST. That's what you want. You can find it here. You want this one: Parallax Serial Terminal v1.2.4
Don't think that is what he's asking for
If I am correct, he is not asking for a replacement terminal program. What he wants is to keep using the processing code on the PC talking to the Arduino over serial, and something (program or device) that lets him monitor what is actually going across the wires. There are (expensive) devices that do that and programs that will run on other serial ports on a pc that can then be hooked into the serial connection. I am not aware of any software only solutions. That would be a very difficult task.
Help with original problem
I posted a comment on your original post linked above that may help with that problem.

Eve Aronoff owns Eve, a contemporary, fine-dining restaurant in Ann Arbor, Mich., that debuted in 2003. Last year she appeared on two episodes of the Bravo series "Top Chef."
Back in Michigan, it's all business. Eve recently began serving lunch. Mario Batali continues to drop by for a meal when he's in the state.
Later this year, Aronoff will open the doors to Frita Batido, a Latin American-themed restaurant also in Ann Arbor.
The trips she took to Miami as a child to visit her grandmother spurred her love for Cuban and Latin American cuisine.
But what really thrills Aronoff, 41, is that her alma mater, Le Cordon Bleu (she studied at the Paris school), just began using her cookbook as a textbook at five of its schools.
"I'm totally excited!" she says of "Eve: Contemporary Cuisine/Méthode Traditionnelle" (Huron River Press, $35).
We caught up with her on a recent weekday afternoon.
Q. Did you always know that you wanted to be a chef?
A. When I was really young, I didn't know that I wanted to be a chef. I started cooking when I was in college.
I went to school in Boston at Brandeis University, and I got a job cooking, just for spending money. Every night I wasn't working I would make dinner for my friends.
I knew I wanted to open my own restaurant, although I was going to school for something completely different - Russian literature and comparative literature - and from that point on I got more and more serious about it.
I love to read, and my parents are professors. They encouraged me to get a good education.
Q. What surprised you about being on "Top Chef"? I hear you had never seen the show before.
A. The gist of it is that I hadn't seen the show and they asked me to do it. I was honored to be asked. I watched the show as I was leaving and thought, "This is so not me."
Q. So you're not looking to do another reality TV show?
A. No. I love dealing with real-life challenges, being in a restaurant and dealing with whatever comes at me. I'm just not comfortable being on stage.
Q. How does the Michigan agricultural and farming scene influence your menu?
A. We have a challenging growing season, and so that's a little tough in the middle of winter. We preserve a lot of foods. My mom makes a lot of jam for us, such as apricot-ginger jam.
Our martini has homemade jam - we call it a jam-tini - and we incorporate it into desserts or vinaigrettes. We make a dish with blue cheese and a polenta biscuit using homemade jam.
Our famers market is in the parking lot of the restaurant. We're really lucky to just walk outside of our door and have a relationship with the farmers.
We do it as best we can and as often as we can. There's no point in serving things that don't taste like what they're supposed to taste like.
Q. Your menu is very eclectic. What inspires you when you sit down and write the menu?
A. Mostly the ingredients and what's in season. But I have my own style with cooking. I definitely have a cohesive style that pulls from some different cultures, like West African and North African, Cuban and Vietnamese . . . paying attention to the flavors and how they come together.
I love all kinds of spices. We make our own spice mixtures at the restaurant. That's a distinctive part of my style of cooking.
Q. Your sugared mint leaves as an after-dinner treat - where did you get that idea?
A. It's kind of like a play on after-dinner mints. I just felt like it was something that fit with the feeling, the natural style of the restaurant and my cooking. It's a whimsical plan.
Q. What do you like to cook for yourself at home?
A. I make super-simple stuff because I'm at the restaurant 15 hours a day, like a roasted chicken, salad or soup, or steamed rice.
It's so refreshing to eat something like a yogurt or a bowl of cereal. I'm always tasting really rich and spicy food at the restaurant.

5 Stock Trades for S&P 1,700
Bank of America
At first glance, Bank of America ( BAC) has had some pretty strong stock performance in 2013 -- until you look at the rest of the financial sector, that is. While the big bank is up almost 15% since the start of the year, the Financial Select SPDR ETF ( XLF) has rallied more than 20% over that same timeframe. That's huge outperformance -- and BAC looks like it's about to start making up the difference in May.
>>5 Hated Earnings Stocks That Deserve Your Love
Bank of America has spent most of this year consolidating sideways in a channel between $11 and $13. But early this week, BAC broke out of the channel to the upside, triggering a buy signal in the big bank. That breakout points to the uptrend from the latter half of 2012 resuming this summer.
Consolidation channels like the one BAC had been in aren't uncommon -- they're a way for a stock to burn off some overbought momentum after a big move higher. Now that BofA has had a chance to move sideways, traders are making a stand above $13. Now looks like a good time to be a buyer. Just keep a tight stop in place if you decide to jump in here.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I'm not making a guess, but the grip angle and backstrap shape is all wrong for a Glock. It looks a lot closer to an XD in the grip.
If guns kill people, mine are defective.
A Caracal?http://www.compactfirearms.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/c/a/caracal_f_qs.jpg

I thought Glock first upon further inspection I was thinking maybe CZ.
Maybe a PPS?
Dead Bears, the only good kind.
Looking at the grip, it could be a Hi-Point!
It is not a Glock or XD or CZ. As Danf said it would be a Caracal "Very Close!". But if you blow it up to around 400 the rear sight just does not look quite correct??? I think it is simply a design they picked out for advertising design book or other source. Maybe Notdku can share some light on this one! 03
The Constitution is not an instrument for the Government to restrain the people. It is an instrument for the people to restrain the Government! *Patrick Henry Today, we need a nation of Minutemen, citizens who are not only prepared to take arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as the basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom." -- John F. Kennedy
Nope to the Hi-Point. The top rear of the slide doesn't have that same 45-degree cant of the Hi-Point. A PPS with an extended magazine is close, but the slide/barrel are too long in the pic. It has to be merely a made -up gun. The trigger guard is way too oblong to be real, IMO

Some people say it is bad, some say it makes no difference. I've done it in the past without anything bad happening, but why take a chance. You can always buy a snap cap to prevent damage or just use a spent hull.
22 cal are the ones you don't want to dryfire, the pin runs strait into steel, however there some singleshot shotguns that I would not dry fire, like NEF's & H&R's they have a pice of metal that comes forward and covers the firing pin, and they will break, there is probably somthing to not dryfiring a centerfire rifle but it's unclear to me what it is, just better not to and be safe.
If you run your just going to die tired!!!
It's not great for semi autos or pumps as the inertia of the firing pin is abruptly halted by the shank of the firing pin and can break it. It isn't as bad to do on a semi auto or pump as it is on an over under or side by side. What's the point of dry firing a shotgun anyway?

King John (Modern)
Enter [Lewis the] Dauphin and his train.
2525Lewis The sun of heaven, methought, was loath to set,
2526But stayed, and made the western welkin blush
2527When English measured backward their own ground
2528In faint retire. Oh bravely came we off,
2529When with a volley of our needless shot,
2530After such bloody toil, we bid good night,
2531And wound our tott'ring colors clearly up,
2532Last in the field, and almost lords of it.
Enter a messenger.
2534Messenger | |
Where is my prince, the Dauphin? | |
2535Lewis | |
Here. What news? |
2536Messenger The Count Melun is slain. The English lords,
2537By his persuasion, are again fall'n off,
2538And your supply, which you have wished so long,
2539Are cast away and sunk on Goodwin Sands.
2540Lewis Ah foul, shrewd news! beshrew thy very heart!
2541I did not think to be so sad tonight
2542As this hath made me. Who was he that said
2543King John did fly an hour or two before
2544The stumbling night did part our weary powers?
2545Messenger Whoever spoke it, it is true, my lord.
2546Lewis Well: keep good quarter and good care tonight.
2547The day shall not be up so soon as I,
2548To try the fair adventure of tomorrow.

Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 USB Audio Interface
Stock code: 97907Features
- High quality mic pre-amps and outputs
- USB bus powered
- Unique signal Halos
- Direct monitor function
- Phantom power
- Rugged metal unibody case
- Focusrite Red 2 and 3 plugin suite software free when you register this product
The Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 USB Audio Interface is a 2 in/4 out USB audio interface that is compatible with both Mac and PC and houses two award-winning Focusrite pre-amps, all in a striking, red anodised aluminium unibody chassis, making it the ideal interface for DJs and travelling musicians to just plug-in and get recording.
The front of the interface presents two combo XLR inputs, which, being combo inputs, accommodate either XLR devices, such as microphones, or line-level devices, such as guitars and keyboards. This is also where those two award-winning mic preamps reside, offering a class-leading input stage.
Both of these channels are set up with their own their own Line/Instrument switches, illuminating Pad switches for loud guitars and mics, and Gain controls with colour-changing halos. The halos on the Gain controls change from green, to indicate a good level (above -24dBFS), through to red, which indicates that the signal is too loud and clipping will occur, so you can then adjust the gain. Simple.
The Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 USB Audio Interface also has MIDI IN and MIDI OUT ports at the rear, so that you can hook up synth modules or digital pianos.
It is at the back of the unit that you will find four high-quality RCA outputs, with a dynamic range of over 105dB, ready for you to connect to a DJ mixer, speakers or headphones. It is alongside these outputs that you can connect a set of monitor speakers and, using the direct control on the front panel, listen to your input and playback signals with low-latency. The sound coming though your monitors/headphones can be selected easily with the onboard switches and you can also chose between mono and stereo.
Computer Connection
As previously mentioned, the Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 USB Audio Interface is compatible with both Mac and PC. The interface connects with a simple USB cable and the unit is bus-powered, so you don't need an external supply. The interface's included software, Scarlett plug-in suite, provides EQ, Compression, Gate and Reverb tools and is compatible with all major DAWs. If you don't have digital audio workstation software already, you'll find a code to unlock Ableton Live Lite 8 supplied in the box.

Sutton Coldfield Housing Liaison Board
The Sutton Coldfield Housing Liaison Board represents council residents across the constituencies four wards, and works with other community and representative groups to ensure that the voices of all tenants are heard.
Various Departments attend Sutton HLB as invited by the Board to discuss issues of concern or to consult with the Board on best practice.Our Priorities
We're primarily aimed at resolving problems with the housing service, but we also discuss other issues such as:
- antisocial behaviour
- repairs
- security.
We regularly have guest speakers from organisations like:
- West Midlands Police
- Wilmott Dixon
- Housing Department.
This means we can speak to the people who can really do something about our concerns.
Our Achievements
Parking was a major issue with cars often parked on the pavement, forcing people with pushchairs or wheelchairs to walk in the road.
A fence has been erected to stop cars encroaching onto the pavement, making the area safer for pedestrians
Sheltered Housing Schemes
Fencing erected around a sheltered housing scheme to stop strangers hanging around and other types of antisocial behaviour.
An outdoor seating area created after a sheltered housing scheme approached the Housing Liaison Board for aid. We arranged for an old drying area to be slabbed and equipped with tables and chairs.
Security doors have been fitted in areas where communal maisonette blocks had open, walk through landings, making residents feel safer and happier.
Security lighting and a CCTV camera fitted around a row of shops and the block of maisonettes next to it. This has greatly reduced the amount of crime the shops have suffered and the number of people that used to hang around this area at night.
Contact us
Any local council tenant or leaseholder can join a Housing Liaison Board.

NBA Injury News
Last updated 11/2/14
The foot injury suffered by Brook Lopez in Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics is not terribly serious. However, he will have to miss time. Lopez suffered the injury in the third quarter of the Brooklyn Nets' win over Boston. According to Mike Mazzeo of ESPN New York, Lopez suffered a right foot strain. X-Rays were negative, and Nets' GM Billy King says this injury is not related to a previous injury he had to the foot. Lopez will miss the team's next two games. "He's in pain. If he could run on it, he'd be playing," King said.Lopez will miss games against Orlando Magic and the Miami Heat. He is expected to be ready to rejoin the team in the first week of December, but he will continue to be evaluated. Lopez has averaged 18.5 points per game this season and 6.8 rebounds per game. It has been an impressive start to the 2012-13 season. In his career, Lopez has averaged 17.5 points per game and 7.5 rebounds per game. He has spent his entire career with the Nets, often being expected to be the main guy. Now he has a team built up around him.The Nets, in their first season in Brooklyn, are turning some heads. The team is 10-4 on the season and looks like a real competitor. Lopez's injury may hurt, but at least for now the two game loss is manageable.

I sympathize. But in their defense, maybe you were just well hidden? They might would have acted differently if they knew you were there, although letting them know would kind of defeat the original purpose.
yeah I was - that not the first time owell I'l try another spot tomorrow.
Too many morons on public land surrounded by large population centers. Imagine what it would be like if the SHTF!
People get the government they deserve.
Finding the right area is key. This will be the first year I'll be hunting in about 10 years or so. The area I'm going is down near Starkville MS and MSU. Pretty sparsely populated, but the population swells during hunting season from out of towners coming in to hunt.
101, I do not know how big of an area you are hunting in regarding public land? But one thing I normally did if the area was very big, was to go fairly far back into the area to hunt. Honestly the novice hunter will not go too far back into the woods and usually will always stay within the first 1/2 mile of the property. One might refer to them as lazy hunters but it is a fact. I would go back into the area a minimum of a mile and sometimes more to set up and hunt. This eliminated 95% of the problem. And I seen very few people that were the occasional weekend hunter who had no woods-craft and were noisy. Less chance of getting shot also!!! 03
I would say you had a pretty good experience........the last time i was out hunting public land i might as well have been in Afganistan..there would have been less lead flying around me!
Patron Member NRA "I would not be an old man if I had not been an armed young man." JTJ I was taught to respect my elders but they are getting harder to find.
Sometime those 'other guys' can stir deer around on public land so you might get a shot too. Public land is 'public', so if I'm hunting there, I have to put up with whoever shows up....just pick a spot where you'd expect spooked deer to go and be ready.
