Has anyone made these changes yet? Can the single switching reg. supply the 5V for both boards, or will that pose some problem? |

Got my 4 channel in a couple of days ago with the long ant. wires. Haven't read all the posts yet but wondering if It would hurt to shorten to the standard length without the coaxial casing.? Also, for short range foamys etc., how about running it without the satellite ant.?

Most generic 7805 require a 1.5V input voltage above the 5V. Meaning you need at least 6.5V for it to properly regulate the 5V output. There are other 5V regulators (don't remember the specific number) that needs only .5V (5.5V) but a 4.8V rechargable battery I think won't be enough for the input to a 7805. |

Feed both the encoder end the RF board straight with 4.8V from the battery. The CPU in the encoder is specified from 2.7V to 6V, I believe, and the RF board has its own 3V and 2.5V regulators which are specified up to 5.5V. Furthermore, the Analog to Digital converter in the CPU is used in ratiometric or relative mode (it measures the ratio of input voltage - stick pot cursor - to the supply voltage, not the absolute voltage, as indicated by the fact that the pots are connected between common and CPU supply), so encoding, servo positions and RF performance should not be affected by the actual supply voltage as long as it is within specifications and over say 3.5V. I'll be testing tonight and report. |

First tests are VERY encouraging indeed.
I used a Hobby City 4-channel transmitter and Turnigy 6-channel receiver, with Hitec HS-50 servo and 700 mAh Eneloop NiMh battery. The transmitter was modified as shown in the photographs of the main PCB. The bigger 5V regulator input and output were connected together and to the output of the smaller 5V regulator. I did not remove the regulators, but it could be done as well. I first powered the transmitter off 4 cells. The voltage under load was 5.12V. Binding to the receiver was performed as usual. Operation was quite normal. The position of the servo (connected to channel 1 receiver output) is shown. Then I removed one cell. The voltage under load was now 3.82V. Again everything operated normally. The position of the servo is also shown. I could not see any difference in servo position between 4 and 3 cell transmitter operation. In fact, when changing back and forth between 3 and 4 cell at the transmitter, the servo would not even twitch at all. I would say this opens up the option of a single Lipo transmitter power supply.? Also, RF output as checked with a field strength meter was the same, as was the range with transmitter antenna removed. Current drain with 4 cells was 80 mA at switch-on, rising to 170 mA after two seconds. With 3 cells, currents were 75 mA and 165 mA. That means at least 10 hours of operation with the 2100 mAh Eneloop batteries. I am definitely sold and will field test range and fly my model this weekend with the 4-cell transmitter supply. After that, I'll tackle the voltage detection circuitry and report. Then we'll see about the 6-channel transmitter, but i do not expect anything much different. ImagesView all Images in thread

R2 Hobbies only charge $17 shipping so they work out quite a bit cheaper. In any case there seems to be yet another new kid on the block here. 6 CH computer TX with display and no PC required. So far it's Heli only but no doubt an Aero version will follow. Looks interesting. |

Yep, prices are always sky high in UK.
If a US distributor or HobbyKing got hold if this it would be a lot cheaper. It's another step in the right direction so hopefully we will soon have the functionality of a DX6i at a fraction of the price. How may flyers actually need 9 channels anyway? 6 is plenty for the vast majority. What we want is more model memories. The ideal would be a 6CH TX with a SD card slot for unlimited memories. It would be cheap enough to make but they won't do it 'cos then we'd never have to buy another TX again! |

Yes, it's a shame that so few of the Chinese manufacturers seem to have Western model fliers on their design team.
A well designed, tested and documented set out of china that had features people wanted and which undercut the big-brand pricing would do very well. Unfortunately it seems that right now, the typical lack of QC and product consistency, combined with some very oddball decisions in the design process mean that most Chinese products are still a bit short of the mark -- but they still sell because they're so damned cheap. |
May 15, 2009, 08:27 AM | |
What about the voltage to the RF module? What happens when that goes below 5V I noticed that they put 2 regulators and it looks like one is dedicated for the RF module. Possibly to keep the voltage regulation "quiet" that is going to the RF module. Let us know how a range test goes w/ the battery down to 1/4 or 1/2 capacity. |

Simple opinion thread.... So after roughly 3 years Ive gotten really good (for a non competitive shooter) with my G26 9mm carry gun and looking to finally upgrade to a .45acp for carry. I'm consistently hitting 2-3" groups from 7 yards and about 8" groups from 20 yards. Ive looked at and held dozens of compact 45's ranging from the Springfield XD series to Sig P220 and everything in between including Kahr PM45's. I am staying loyal to Glock because out of all those guns...I still am attracted to the purchase, the dependability, accuracy, and capacity of the Glocks. So....I narrowed down my options which are the slim Glock 36 that only holds 6+1 and the Glock 30SF (10+1) which is comparable in size to the G19 just thicker. I held the Glock30 SF side by side with my Glock 26 and obviously there is a noticeable size difference.....but all things considered (mentioned above) I think the G30 SF is the absolute PERFECT negotiation in all those areas. I am moving slightly up in size from the Glock36's size but gaining 4 more rounds and I LOVE the purchase on the G30SF. I honestly think it feels better and I have medium sized hands Anyone with a Glock30 SF care to weigh in? Im already saving up in the meantime, I'm about 90% sure of this decision just looking for feedback

Mark Kerrigan, brother of former U.S. Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan, has been charged with assault after a fight with his father over a telephone resulted in Daniel Kerrigan suffering a fatal cardiac arrest.
The two were having an argument over a telephone when the father collapsed, reports the Boston Herald, and son Mark was said to have though his father was pretending to be ill.
"My husband had a massive heart attack," Daniel Kerrigan's wife Brenda told the Boston Herald. "This is a very difficult time for me.
"My God. He had a heart attack. That's what it was," added Brenda, before the details of her son's arrest were disclosed.
Mark Kerrigan has been charged with assault and battery on a person over 60 and is due to be arraigned at Woburn Court Monday.
The police report states that Mark Kerrigan had to be restrained using pepper spray and seemed under the influence.
Daniel Kerrigan was found unresponsive at his home in Stoneham 1.30a.m. Sunday and transported to Winchester Hospital.

News Corp, popular tech blog contemplate split -sources
(Reuters) - AllThingsD, the widely read technology blog run by Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg, has begun discussions with owner News Corp (NWSA.O) about extending or ending their partnership, sources familiar with the situation told Reuters.
According to these sources, AllThingsD's contract with News Corp expires at the end of the year. One of the sources said Swisher and Mossberg have to deliver a business plan by next week to Robert Thomson, the former Wall Street Journal managing editor who will run News Corp's publishing unit as CEO after it is spun off.
The fact that AllThingsD's contract is up this year is well known, and the sources said the website is receiving a lot of "inbound interest" from potential buyers parallel to its talks with News Corp.
Among the names mentioned by one of the sources as having reached out to AllThingsD was Conde Nast, where Swisher recently agreed to work as a contributing writer for Vanity Fair, and Hearst.
The sources also speculated that former Yahoo (YHOO.O) and News Corp executive Ross Levinsohn might be looking at the website given his new role as Chief Executive of Guggenheim Digital Media, which according to the press release announcing his hiring, comes complete with "significant capital to acquire and invest in new media companies." The private equity shop already owns Billboard, Hollywood Reporter, and Adweek.
AllThingsD has reported that AOL expressed interest in acquiring it in the past, but said those talks "were preliminary at best."
Calls to AllThingsD were referred to a News Corp representative who declined comment. A Conde Nast representative declined comment. Calls to Hearst were not immediately returned. Calls and emails to Ross Levinsohn were not returned.
While AllThingsD is recognized as the brainchild of Swisher and Mossberg, News Corp actually owns the website and its name. However, according to provisions in their contract, Swisher and Mossberg have approval authority over any sale, one of the sources said.
Technically, News Corp could retain the AllThingsD's name in the event of a sale, forcing Swisher and Mossberg to start a new venture under a different brand name. But historically in these types of situations a deal is usually worked out to allow the founders to take the company name with them as part of a settlement.
The sources described the website and conference business combined as profitable. AllThingsD was first launched as a conference, "D: All Things Digital" in 2003, and a website followed.
It has grown into a technology industry must-read, and features the conference division known for snagging A-list corporate executives for interview sessions. Apple's (AAPL.O) Steve Jobs, Facebook (FB.O) founder Mark Zuckerberg, Microsoft (MSFT.O) founder Bill Gates, and virtually every other major technology executive has spoken at the D Conference.
Earlier this week, AllThingsD's well-regarded media writer, Peter Kafka, led a media-centric conference for the website that included panels with Intel's (INTC.O) Erik Huggers, Live Nation (LYV.N) CEO Michael Rapino, and Netflix's (NFLX.O) programming boss Ted Sarandos, among others.
The website has two more conferences on the agenda for this year: a mobile one that was postponed until April due to Hurricane Sandy, and the main D Conference in May.
The sources described the relationship between News Corp and AllThingsD as amicable but stressed.
"Like all partnerships, there could be more cooperation between the two," said one of the sources. "There is tension between AllThingsD and the Wall Street Journal, for example."
As a result of management changes, over the last few years the website has reported to numerous Wall Street Journal and News Corp executives, among them Gordon Crovitz, Les Hinton, and now Lex Fenwick and Robert Thomson.
Should the two sides reach a deal on a new contract, AllThingsD would be included as part of the publishing unit in the News Corp split, one of the sources said. (Additional reporting by Jennifer Saba; Editing by David Gregorio and Carol Bishopric)

Out of all the oils I've tried (incl jojoba, evoo, sesame etc) this has been the best multi taking find for my dry, sensitive skin. When using it as a make up remover I add some water to a dollop of grapeseed oil and rub onto dry skin for a minimum of 30 seconds then clean off with a flannel followed by two drops of tea tree oil on a damp cotton pad. Then I can use it as a night time moisturizer for my entire body head to toe. It absorbs really well and every inch of my skin has never felt this smooth. It doesn't bleed into your eyes like evoo does and is far cheaper than jojoba. You can purchase this in bulk at your local supermarket and decant some into a smaller bottle for bathroom use and have the rest in the pantry for cooking. I have a very sensitive nose as well as skin and this oil is completely without smell, couldn't handle coconut oil for that reason. It goes great under makeup and makes for a great stir fry, what more could. I do find however that it isn't quite moisturizing enough in the winter.

Unfortunately, this broke me out. My skin is acne prone but I haven't gotten any breakouts from olive oil or argan oil. If you're prone to breakouts, use with care!

OMG OMG im in loooove I'm 18 and have acne prone oily skin and looking to improve tone and hopefully lighten scarring I bought this. After experimenting with a few uses I really like to use it as an over night moisturizer. in the AM if I dont shower I tone, skip moisturizer, and apply my make up. my skin is GLOWY and doesnt get oily which happens regardless ofwhether or not I use a traditional moisturizer. If I do shower, i cleanse with EVOO and tone.
Oils are MAGIC <3
also....grapeseed is great for removing make up w/o making a mess...if I botch an eye look i can remove it without redoing all my makeup

I won't repeat what many previous reviewers already mentioned. I just wanted to share something extra...
I've used grapeseed oil when I had insect bites (mostly ticks) when I was hiking. I tried many methods to relief itchiness including prescription lotion. Nothing really worked like grapeseed oil. Of course, I had to reapply as soon as I got out of shower.
Since then, I had 2 8oz bottles and I used only one in mixing with lotion. I forgot one new bottle and I recently started using for my winter skin. My hands were so dried... I tried many lotion including Vaseline at nigh with gloves but I got only temporary relief. I was wondering why not using leftover grapeseed oil on my fingers. Actually, it worked. It took about 3 min to sink into skin but after that, no greasy at all and long lasting.
I also use grapeseed oil instead of baby oil to remove MU. Price is about the same so why not choose natural oil with antioxidants :)

I love oil cleansing method. Love how it takes off all my eye makeup. Having said that, I didn't like shelling out $$$ for Shu Uemura Oil. I downgraded to MAC Cleanse Off Oil, liked it. Then I tried grapeseed oil. Affordable, woks amazingly well, doesn't break me out, doesn't leave a residue when I use another cleanser after that. This will always be my eye makeup remover.

I took a trip to GNC to pick up some Jojoba Oil to try and help with my constant breakouts and oily/dehydrated skin. I happened to see Grapeseed oil next to it, the NOW brand, and saw that it said 'can help reduce the effects of acne' or something to that effect, so I figured $9.99 for sixteen ounces was a good deal and I was at the end of my rope (My forehead looked like I had road rash) and shelled out the money. I am SO GLAD I did. About two weeks later my skin is the clearest and overall healthiest it's been since I was a kid. Words cannot express how much I love this stuff.
I use it as an after-cleaning/shower moisturizer at night, just a few drops works, and in the morning to get my Mario Badescu Drying Lotion off, I just wipe away the excess and my skin is moisturized, happy and pretty much oil-free the rest of the day. I really hope my skins stays pleased with this stuff, because I sure am.

I've read so many reviews on here about grapeseed oil but, I was still in the process of finishing off my current moisturizer so, I never got the chance to try it. I'm in the process of making the transition to ALL natural products (meaning: no chemicals, parabens, sulphates, SLS, no fragrance etc etc). I also have slight eczema and over the past summer I realized how much my skin doesn't like fragrances. I realized that even the dermatologist tested products (Aveeno) still had enough chemicals to make me cringe. So, I finally finished off the bottle of Aveeno and bought a 750mL bottle of grapeseed oil for approx $8 (CAD) at Walmart. This stuff will last you a while! Since it does have a shelf life of about 6 months (maybe slightly longer if stored properly--cool/dark place), I suggest sharing it with someone or of course using it when cooking :D I love that it's a multi-purpose product. I use it as a: makeup remover, body moisturizer, facial moisturizer, cuticle oil and foot oil; and it works exceedingly well. I put it on after taking a shower and my skin GLOWS. It moisturizes really well and keeps your skin soft. Sometimes, I need a little extra help around the elbows so, I use my 100% Pure Shea Butter for that. It takes all of my mascara off, and it hasn't broken me out at all. It absorbs quickly and does't feel heavy on your face (you really only need about 3 drops for your face). My only regret is that I didn't try this sooner instead of bombarding myself with all of these harmful chemicals. Best of all, there's no smell to it so, my skin loves it!
3 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
do your skin a favor and cut all that chemicals they've talked us into bying.
hydrate with plane water (or thermal water spray) and spread 2 drops of oil (wich is packed with vitamins) all over your face. 2 drops won't make you an oily mess when mixed with water right on your face. Try it!!!

I bought grapeseed oil from Swanson's because I'd heard good things about it. I wasn't really expecting much from it though. I was using it once in awhile as a body oil after my showers & didn't really notice much change. I love the way coconut oil makes my skin feel but it just takes such a long time to absorb. But now that winter weather has arrived, I've started using the grapeseed oil daily after my shower all over my body. I apply it liberally to damp skin and it absorbs quickly. My skin doesn't feel greasy or sticky and there's no noticeable scent. I sometimes use a light layer of body lotion over it if my skin has been feeling especially dry. Using it daily, I have now begun to see improvement in my skin texture & softness. I have hopes this will finally get rid of that awful k.p. on my upper arms. I'll update if I get even better results.
UPDATE: Feb 2011 ... This didn't eliminate my k.p. BUT ... I will always have this wonder oil on hand. It's dirt cheap & the best body oil I've ever used. I didn't realize how much my skin loved it until I skipped applying it after my shower the other day: dry, itchy, dull skin. I use other oils for make-up removal & cleansing but this is my HG body oil.

Grapeseed oil, how do I love thee? This is great as a makeup remover, as many here have said. It is super gentle, soothing...it's almost like a remover and a treatment in one. My acne prone skin has no issues with it, seems be normalizing my oil production,too.
I was using baby oil for my mega waterproof mascara/sunblock removal (which I still keep on standby), but it was making my eyelashes fall out! This actually seems to be making my eyelashes grow longer, and I don't have the eyelashes coming out with the mascara removal anymore. Even my husband noticed the difference when I had no mascara on...I'm sold.
Of course it's not really packaged the best, I buy organic in bulk in the cooking department, then transfer to a smaller bottle.

Caption It: Look Over There
by Maria Russo in Food Network Star, June 27, 2014For the first time on Sunday, Food Network Star finalists will trade the camera screen for the stage as they get set to perform in live culinary demonstrations. The hopefuls are now five weeks into the contest, and while some are finally finding their footing with an audience, many are still struggling to command a meaningful presence, as they're running out of time during presentations and stumbling over their words. Because there's no time to hesitate and no opportunities for second takes when it comes to live performances, their first attempts will have to be their best if they want to wow the mentors.
Check out the sneak-peek photo above from Sunday's all-new episode. As Lenny works his way through his demonstration, he's seemingly caught up in something happening just over in the distance. What do you think could have grabbed his attention? Is this act somehow part of his performance, or has something gone wrong and he's forced to stop midexplanation?
Before you tune in on Sunday at 9|8c to find out what's going on here, we're challenging you, Star fans, to write your best captions (tastefully appropriate, please) for this moment in the comments below.
Don't miss Food Network Star on Sunday at 9|8c.

A Letter to Lenny, from the Rebel
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 (
44 )-
Ha! Madest thou look!
OK, for all of you who think Lenny is overdoing the whole cowboy thing - look at the picture. Other than his big belt buckle, I see nothing fake about this shirt, I like the necktie, jeans are believable.
For those who say he's this year's Rodney, that's nowhere even close. Lenny is a far better cook and is much more well-spoken. He may need to tone things down a bit for the long haul but I would have no hesitation in letting him cook for me. Lenny has also outcooked Luca and is more entertaining.
Your very kind in your words Simone....thank you. Check it out, I agree with you. Sometimes I DO need to tone things down a bit...this has been the story my whole life. Man, oh Man...I tend to jump right into things with both feet. But heck, I guess it's easier to take things away than gather them up.
Anywho...I want to play the caption game. "If you look right over there...you'll see my sanity laughing at me."
Thanks Chef Lenny for the laugh you just gave me. Keep being who you are.
Chef Lenny I think it's great to see you replying on here. I also like the fact that you can admit that you're not perfect that you're sometimes over the top. I enjoy watching you on the show. I know for a fact redneck boys can cook and so far you have been maintaining that reputation. Keep up the good work.
Well Said! I have no idea how Lenny is 2nd in the current Fan Poll. Get out there & vote people! Lenny needs our support. He is the definite winner in my book, and I'll probably never watch another contest on Food Network if he doesn't come out on top.
While a live culinary demonstration is a very good test it will be important to remember it is only ONE challenge. DO NOT act like it's all over and crown the winner after this next challenge. Winner's may blow it, later. Others may improve. It's a good test but we are only halfway along.
This one goes out to my homies in the back row!
Lenny is the real deal. Here is my caption.Look up in the sky.....its a bird ......it a plane.....it's Alton Brown in a tree?
Lookie yonder y'all----------that's dinner flying by!
The crowd like Lenny.
Loreal does much better.
Emma does worse.
Chris K. will either have the crowd loving him or will be going home. No in-between. -
Some other predictions:
Sheri Scott will continue what appears in my opinion to be nearly a personal mission to spread or post more negativity about Sarah. She's entitled to her feelings. But she keeps posting them over and over. She just can't seem to help herself.
"Guest" will "just happen" to be one of the first two or three to post in either Justin's or Alton's thread and won't have good things to say about Sarah.
Samantha will read guests negative comments and post that she agrees with them. None of them have to like anyone but the postings and repetition can look like people have a strong agenda. Are they faulting the cooking or presentation or is it just accusations and labeling? None of this may come true. They are only predictions. But they would fit with what has already happened.
Justin, who as a former winner should remain unbiased, will likely inject his own unfavorable opinions into things. Didn't he once say that watching popcorn pop was better than watching Nicole cook? Not good. You don't see Maria Russo or Sarah de Heer doing that. To me, they are more professional. It will intruiging to see if these patterns repeat themselves. -
That there Buffalo is gonna be part of y'all's dinner.
Heaven help us! What really bad comedy..... forget the cooking. Let's go watch the star Salvation instead!

Re: Tackling the catch
even the Steeler DBs admit they need to play better...
Ike Taylor had a fine 2011 right up until he met Demaryius Thomas in Denver, both at the end of last season and the start of this one. Whether those wounded him or not, overall this season, hes allowed 16 completions on the 29 times his receiver has been the pass target, according to Pro Football Focus. That ranks 134th out of 164 cornerbacks in the NFL.
Yeah, really.
Taylor can play much better, and he knows it.
Keenan Lewis, a first-year starter, has allowed 15 completions on 24 targets. That ranks 157th. And his next official pass defensed will be his first.
Unlike Taylor, no one knows if Lewis can play better. Theres no precedent.
No one knows if Curtis Brown can replace him, either. The franchises highest draft pick among defensive backs in the past six years third round, 2011 still cant find his way to the field.
Allen has fit in with the rest, allowing 10 completions on 14 targets. That ranks 115th.
At safety, Mundy has allowed nine completions on 12 targets. That ranks 119th.
Mike Tomlin strongly hinted Monday that hell spell Mundy with Will Allen, but thats hardly the cavalry. Allen, 30, is in his ninth NFL season and hasnt made a start since Oct. 4, 2009.
Answers, anyone?
With Troy not being there, itll be tough, but we strive to pick up our game every week, Cortez Allen said. The standard is the standard. Well get it done.
Even with Troy, weve got to get better, Lewis said.
Lewis is right, of course, as the above numbers illustrate. Theres ample room to improve.

I can't say I agree with this. I've got a 27 for carry, because it's compact, and that's it.
I got it because a LEO I hunt with said he wouldn't carry anything else off duty.
I have big hands, and it is not a comfortable pistol for me to shoot.
I simply cannot imagine cutting a full sized pistol down to compact...
I sort of feel like this is destroying a perfectly good pistol.

Crystal MorningsThe sun shines down uponA sparkling, crystalline dawn,A morning unlike any otherWhere the snow seems to hoverFloating like stars in the daytime sky.They are a mystical white,Crystals beautiful to enlightened sight,Dazzling in their winter susurration,Their deep downy touch an indicationOf the winter melody forever in my mind.Lively melodies seem to float upon the air,Its tone so vibrant, so fair, so fairIneffable in its cold winter perfection,It heralds the year's resurrectionFelicity for the miraculous, a brightened day,Its insurrection of my attempts to say,Express the beauty which sweeps me away.Oh, the beauty of this crystal morning,To you, I am most sincerely imploring,Imbibe the light, the clarity of this vision;I shall suffer from you no indecision,For under a miracle like this morning,Surely, dreams come true.
To Be, To Be, CarefreeCarefree, carefree I wish to be,I long to be with her.She'll teach my heart just how to see,I'll be her perfect sir.I'll learn of love in her embrace,And then succumb to her sweet grace,I'll learn of love,I'll learn of love,I'll see the love upon her face,Oh, carefree, carefree, carefree.Carefree, carefree, I do foreseeA lifetime at her side.And in my heart, so much new glee,I feel I must have died.I'll fight no more for I am caught,See me now, a Gordian knot,I'll fight no more,I'll fight no more,What more have I to give to thought?Oh, carefree, carefree, carefree.To be carefree, it is my dream,And fight this war no more.I see her face, her eyes do gleamAs if a song of yore.I'll take my shield; 'tis her I love,Now I know who I dream of,I'll take my shield,I'll take my shield,And with my might, I'll guard my dove,Oh, to be, to be, carefree.
The Summer FarceThe gentle season's banner,A herald to the fall,So full of calming glamour,To entertain us all.The colors become stark,Against the light of day,The yellow and red grow dark,In heaps of clouds grown gray.I wake up in the morningTo see that it has come,Feet cold against the flooring,I break into a run.There is beauty just outside,Not beyond my reach,To us does autumn confide,It has many things to teach.We learn of love and beauty,As birdsong becomes sparse,And 'tis my righteous dutyTo end the summer farce.
Steven LimerickThere once was this guy named Steven,He wasn't entirely even,Friends could not call him oddSo he ate a raw codAnd said, "You'd best start believin!"

Since I do 95% of my driving on pavement and don't generally go off-road except when hunting, I've decided on the Hankook Dynapro ATM's for my next set of tires. Occasionally though, I need to drive some muddy county roads to get where I'm going. The surface of these roads are pretty solid except that the top 1"-3" are slimy clay after rains over 1". The ditches on either side get deep though and I'd like some extra traction to help keep me out of them if possible. Speed on these roads is 25 mph when dry and obviously less when wet. Will tire chains serve my needs here?

You might think me nuts but with musician Sting, your urologist, and porn studs aplenty backing me up, you should trust me when I say that withholding your own orgasms can be, well, the bomb. Need some encouragement? How about New Sensations' spoogiest website, Jizz Bomb? It's loaded with hardcore encounters ending with external cumshots you'll have to see to believe and, what's more, it comes stamped with New Sensations' seal of erotic approval.
Porn and art are rarely spoken of in the same context (unless by ambitious or pretentious pornographers), but The Art Porn is one site that dares to equate explicit digital videos of people having sexual intercourse with the works of Monet, Rousseau, Klimt, and Schwitters. Sure, this might be about as artistic as your average Demi Lovato tune, but as far as porn goes, The Art Porn is a gloriously romantic and beautifully shot site that sees young Russian women fuck their boyfriends, their fuck buddies, and sometimes two dudes at the same time. For so-called art, The Art Porn sure is filthy!
Thinking of trading in your uninspiring, far-too-satisfied girlfriend for a newer, fresher, hornier model? Premium GFs seems like the place for that, then, with an enormous collection of 51 sites under one network-branded roof. So abundant is the model roster of Premium GFs, the webmasters split it into more than fifty subcategories, each one hiding the sweet slut who'll set your world afire.
Although nowhere near as fantastic as the sick, sordid daydreams you and I have when we should be plugging away at work, Fantasy HD is nevertheless a very enjoyable (and even romantic) hardcore romp that's sure to entice many new members to sign up for its exclusive collection of beautifully-shot smut. Starring America's hottest pornstars and a number of European hotties, too, Fantasy HD dolls them up as housemaids, beach bunnies, yoga instructors, and cock-addicted tourists and invites you, the home viewer, to simply live a little!
Every once in a while, an all-girl porn company comes to prominence and vows to change the hyper-aggressive, male-dominated, hetero-normative porn world for the better. Well, Sweetheart Video might not be producing the most ground-breaking lesbian porn on the planet, but it's doing a damn fine job of casting the sexiest, most beautiful women in porn and getting them to share their bodies in intimate, sensual, and surprisingly intense sex scenes, here rendered in High Definition. Sweetheart Video intends to steal not just your heart, but your libido, too. If I were you, I'd let it.
You've had you fill of trying to convince 30-, 40-, and even 50-something women that you've got what it takes to rock their sexually mature libidos and be man enough in the domestic sense, so why not aim for women a little less demanding and a whole lot sluttier? Give Me Teens fills its archives with nothing but the finest teen-starring hardcore fuckfests ever captured by a digital camcorder. Rendered in dazzling HD formats and starring Jynx Maze, Taylor Rain, and a cast of the most scintillating young babes in porn, Give Me Teens will have you devoting your sexual affection to teens and teens alone from here on out, supposed female sexual maturity be damned!
Short of pulling out your, uh, camera and snapping photos of every gorgeous woman you see as your roam the streets, malls, post offices of wherever it is you happen to live, you're not going to build a collection of photographs of beautiful everyday women anytime soon. Better to hand it over to FigureBaby. Hosting nearly 500 exclusive photo galleries by Tony Mancini, FigureBaby proves that any beautiful woman looks even better without clothing.
While she can't go out drinking with you after work on a Friday night, an 18-year-old babe can be a hell of a lot of fun. Porn Pros token teen site, 18 Years Old proves this with over 300 exclusive hardcore scenes that range from uninhibited party hookups to slow, seductive erotica that'll just as likely please your lady-friend as they will you. Although, much like the young women it features, 18 Years Old is far from perfect, it's certainly getting better and better as it ages.

·Drink Good Whiskey, Get Fewer Hangovers
"It's all about the
type of still. Most cheap whiskeys—
and vodka and gin—are produced on a column still. But good bourbon is made
in a pot still, which allows us to cut out, with greater precision, the distillates that make people sick."
—Daniel Prieto Preston, C.E.O., Cacao Prieto, Brooklyn (above left)
·Learn to
Drink Like an Irishman
"The perfect time to drink Irish whiskey is, well, not to sound Irish, but anytime. If I'm having a pint of the black stuff [Guinness], you'll see me with a dram of Redbreast twelve-year. If I'm home,
it'll be Locke's eight-year neat."
—Jack McGarry, owner, The Dead Rabbit, Grocery and Grog,
N.Y.C. (right)
·Don't Pay Extra for the Old Stuff
"Older isn't always better. I've had
some whiskeys with crazy age, and
I don't always find them delightful. The Cragganmore thirteen-year is every bit as good as a whiskey that's been aged twenty-five years. And American whiskeys in particular age much quicker."
—Leo Robitschek,
Bar Manager, The Nomad, N.Y.C.
How to Get Primo Whiskey on the Cheap
Bill thomas, owner of D.C.'s Jack Rose Dining Saloon, has amassed a collection of 1,500 bottles. Here's how to start your own.
1. You're Not Limited to Your Local Stores
"Scan stores all over the country online.
I often look for hole-in-the-wall places in big markets like New York and Chicago, where competition is fierce. The little guys will have hidden stashes. We found a ton of Macallan 25 this way. Be careful buying whiskey from eBay, though. I've seen a lot of fakes."
2. Look Beyond the Label
"If you are trying
to find rare or really old brands, look for bottles with old federal tax seals—
the long stickers
that show the
excise tax has been paid. This means they're pre-mid-1980s. Generally whiskeys stored halfway decently will last a hundred years. Never buy a whiskey that is milky or has a ton of sedimental breakdown
in the bottom."
3. Don't Just Stare At It
"Whiskey is not
meant to be adored. It's meant to be drunk. At Jack Rose, we
try to price to sell. Other bars price to protect. We love when we come in the next day and see empty bottles. This isn't a museum;
this is a library."—L.P.

Chase Field
Attendance: 20,002
Phoenix, AZ (Sports Network) - Patrick Corbin scattered four hits over 6 1/3 innings as the Arizona Diamondbacks edged the Philadelphia Phillies, 2-1, in the opener of a four-game set at Chase Field.
Corbin (5-0) surrendered just one run and struck out four to win his third straight start. Heath Bell stranded a runner in the ninth to earn his fourth save.
Corbin also drove in a run and Gerardo Parra added two hits and an RBI for the Diamondbacks, winners in four straight.
"I'm glad we came out with a win today. I just want to keep going, we've got a nice little streak going the with team, and I just wanted to keep that up," Corbin said.
Kevin Frandsen drove in the lone run for the Phillies, who saw starter Cole Hamels (1-5) give up two runs on six hits and five walks to drop his second straight start.
"I am able to execute a lot of pitches the right way, then ultimately put a little too much pressure on trying to do that," Hamels said.
Martin Prado scored on Corbin's groundout in the fifth inning to put Arizona up 1-0.
With runners on second and third in the sixth, Prado pushed a bunt up the first baseline, allowing Cody Ross to score.
The Phillies loaded the bases with one out in the seventh, but were only able to push one run across. Pinch-hitter Kevin Frandsen hit a soft line drive over second baseman Cliff Pennington's head, which was enough to score Domonic Brown. Parra, though, gunned down John Mayberry at second on the play. Rollins followed with a pop out to short stop Didi Gregorius to end the threat.
Brown ripped a one-out double in the ninth inning, but Bell was able to retire the next to batters to preserve the win.

To the Honorable Senator Clinton:
I am writing this message to suggest a new change in United States government, one that will undoubtedly usher in an era of peace, prosperity, and victory for our great nation. It will make our country a land I'd truly be proud to be a citizen of.
I will first address the problems that my proposal will solve, and they are numerous in number. The ones I speak of are the perpetual and horribly incompetent occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, the question of adequately rebuilding the city of New Orleans, the threat to homosexual marriage, the government's illegal wiretapping of United States citizens, the possible nuclear threats of Iran and North Korea, the torture of detainees unjustly held in a network of secret and disclosed CIA-run detention centers worldwide, the immense and inflating trade deficit, the inadequate system of medical care in the country, and the mediocre state of most school institutions. As any person would know, it would be almost impossible to solve all of these problems with one decisive action, because they are so diverse, and there are so many of them. But the key word here is "almost"-- there IS a solution! We just have to find the source of these problems.
If we trace these problems back, we can easily see where they came from: our President. You, Senator Clinton, are obviously very much in the political know, so I do not need to tell you how he and his peers have created all of these problems. I'm sure you've heard it all before, anyway, so I'll proceed straight to the solution.
President Bush influences others and carries out actions with his voice - he recites speeches, gives press conferences (very rarely), and orders other people by talking to them. It is through this that his ideas gain momentum and influence the country, obviously for the worse. And it is here that the solution lies - directly under our noses (literally)! All we have to do is to get him to STOP TALKING. It's that simple.
Therefore, I propose that you, or someone likeminded, introduce a bill to Congress which would do one or both of the following:
I) Make it so that if George W. Bush, Jr. utters a recognizable sound from his lips, the government shall levy a $10,000 fine against him or sentence him to three years in prison, or both.
II) Require by law that George W. Bush, Jr. must do one of the following speech inhibiting procedures at all hours of the day:
a) Place a piece of duct tape over his mouth.
b) Stuff a sock into his oral cavity, and have it held there by an aide.
c) Put his foot in his mouth.
d) Force him to wear a ball gag (emergency only).
By forcing the President to be silent, this will restrict his ideas from ever becoming American policy. He may also be judged unfit to hold office due to the new law, forcing Vice President Dick Cheney to step up and take Mr. Bush's place. He won't be able to get anything done, though, because the general popular consensus is that he's a big fat creepy jerk. And he probably smells funny, too.
If this law is successfully passed, the United States will enter an era of utopian bliss the likes of which we have never seen. I hope you will consider my proposal, Senator Clinton, because I believe it would make America, and thus the world, a much better place to live in.
Thank you for taking the time to read my message. If I believed in a God, I'd ask Him to bless America at this point.
Samuel Finer

Sudan bombs Darfur rebels – and civilians – amid calls for a 'no-fly' zone.
A Dutch journalist and photographer traveled with rebel forces in Darfur in February. They were pinned down by government forces for weeks, before escaping across the border into Chad.
Jan-Joseph Stok
Karoya Laban, Sudan
Ache Ali has lost four children and a husband.
A Sudanese cattle herder, she rides on a donkey cart with her youngest child, a daughter, wedged between hundreds of other fleeing Sudanese, herds of bleating goats, and other livestock.
"They [the children] ran away three days ago when our village, Buhera, was bombed." she calls out over the din, hoping for some help.
For weeks, she says that her family lived in fear, as the region was bombed day and night by Sudanese government aircraft. In early February, when this reporter caught up to her, she was fleeing her village. She is just one of the roughly 30,000 displaced Sudanese who has fled the region around Muhajirya in recent weeks.
Muhajirya is strategically located along a transit route in southern Darfur. It became the scene of intense fighting in mid-January. The Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) rebels captured the town after a fight with another militia, a Sudanese Liberation Army faction known as the SLA-Minni Minawi, which in 2006 had declared loyalty to the government.
To oust JEM, who are supported by neighboring Chad, from Muhajirya, the Sudanese government launched an offensive, sending in ground troops and bombing the area for about three weeks. Residents say most of the bombers were Russian-made Antonovs, but they also saw MiG fighter aircraft. About 10 villages were bombed and dozens of civilians were killed.

Finding Learning in Little Things
Just recently my student teacher gave our class a little cactus she brought back from a trip to Arizona. I was excited to receive a plant for our classroom and began brainstorming all the learning we could tie into this small gift that brought such excitement. Starting with the care directions, my students began to review what living things need and we had lots of discussion around new science words including : temperature and measurement. We read about our cactus, interpreted what we learned and then wrote a guide to remind each other about how to care for it. Using interactive writing, we all dug into word work and practiced stretching through sounds in words, practicing high frequency words, digraphs, noticing short vowel patterns, compound words and the list goes on. One student added illustrations to the steps we composed during play. And, a few students have written about the cactus on the blog, sharing their thoughts about the new plant on our windowsill. I love it when something so small can conjure up so much learning.
