Motors and Gearboxes » Pololu Metal Gearmotors » Micro Metal Gearmotors »
50:1 Micro Metal Gearmotor with Extended Motor Shaft
This gearmotor is a miniature (0.94" x 0.39" x 0.47"), low-current brushed DC motor with 51.45:1 metal gearbox, similar to Sanyo's popular 12 mm gearmotors. These units have a 0.365"-long, 3 mm-diameter D-shaped output shaft. This version also has a 4.5 x 1 mm extended motor shaft.
Compare all products in Micro Metal Gearmotors or Micro Metal Gearmotors with Extended Motor Shafts.
These tiny brushed DC gearmotors are intended for use at 6 V, though in general, these kinds of motors can run at voltages above and below this nominal voltage, so they should comfortably operate in the 3 – 9 V range (rotation can start at voltages as low as 0.5 V). Lower voltages might not be practical, and higher voltages could start negatively affecting the life of the motor. The micro metal gearmotors are available in a wide range of gear ratios—from 5:1 up to 1000:1—and offer a choice between three different motors: high-power (HP), medium-power (MP), and standard. With the exception of the 1000:1 gear ratio versions, all of the micro metal gearmotors have the same physical dimensions, so one version can be easily swapped for another if your design requirements change. Please see the micro metal gearmotor comparison table for detailed specifications of all our micro metal gearmotors. This dynamically-sortable table can help you find the gearmotor that offers the best blend of speed, torque, and current-draw for your particular application. A more basic comparison table is available below.
Some versions of the gearmotors are sold with an additional 1mm-diameter output shaft that protrudes from the rear of the motor. This 4.5mm-long rear shaft rotates at the same speed as the input to the gearbox and offers a way to add an encoder, such as our magnetic encoder for micro metal gearmotors, to provide motor speed or position feedback.
Note: Stalling gearmotors can greatly decrease their lifetimes, occasionally resulting in immediate damage to the gearbox. This is especially true for the higher gear ratios, such as the 298:1 and 1000:1 versions, which can generate enough torque to damage themselves. The stall torque values given for the two 1000:1 motors are theoretical, and we strongly recommend you avoid stalling them. Prolonged stalls (on the order of seconds) can result in thermal damage to the motor windings and brushes, especially for the versions that use high-power (HP) motors.
Details for item #2203
Exact gear ratio: ``(32×33×35×38) / (15×14×13×10) ~~ bb(51.45:1)``
Gearmotor Dimensions
The gearbox has a long (0.365" or 9.27 mm), 3 mm-diameter D-shaped metal output shaft, and the brass faceplate has two mounting holes threaded for M1.6 screws (1.6 mm diameter, 0.35 mm thread pitch). The gearmotor weighs approximately 0.35 oz (10 g). Versions with the extended motor shaft have a 1mm diameter round shaft that protrudes 4.5 mm from the rear of the motor, between the two motor terminals; this is not pictured in the above dimension diagram. In terms of size, these gearmotors are very similar to Sanyo's popular 12 mm NA4S DC gearmotors, and gearmotors with this form factor are often referred to as N20 motors.
The gearbox on the 1000:1 and 1000:1 HP micro metal gearmotors is 12.5 mm long. All of the other micro metal gearmotors have 9mm-long gearboxes, as shown in the above dimension diagram.
Motor Accessories
We also incorporate these motors into some of our products, including our 3pi robot and Zumo robot:
Selecting the Right Gearmotor
We offer a wide selection of metal gearmotors that offer different combinations of speed and torque. Our metal gearmotor comparison table can help you find the motor that best meets your project's requirements.

It's so funny looking at that picture of Nias, I'm thinking, man I would be all over that wave. The unfortunately reality when I was faced with similar in El Sal I was shoulder hopping bing time.

A Boston-based, Irish government funded immigrant's rights organization, turned a young Irish girl in to US authorities because she worked in a bar in contradiction of her visa terms.
The Irish International Immigrant Center (IIIC) received $253,000 in Irish government funding to help immigrants in 2011. They also received funding from the American Ireland Fund.
In all my years covering the Irish American community I have never seen such a callous act inflicted on a young Irish immigrant by an Irish organization allegedly established to help young immigrants.
They informed on her to the US State Department after tracking an article she wrote for this publication about her life in America. In the article she mentioned she had tried to make ends meet by working in a bar. She is here legally on a year-long J-1 student visa.
In a harshly worded letter that she received, the IIIC stated that her visa was revoked and demanded that she immediately book passage home and leave the country.

Thread: What are you playing?
December 3rd, 2011, 06:41 PM #1381
Well I've been mucking about with:
Dungeon Defenders- coop multiplayer, build a base, defend against baddies etc. Worth the sale price but doesn't hit me as a classic
Frozen Synapse- awesome tactical game. It's one that strategy gamers should look up IMHO. There is virtually no luck, nearly 100% tactics as you try to outmanouvre and outhink your opponent's squad. Turn based. A lot of planning resulting in a fist punching the air or a 'oh crap how do I recover from this?' Tense with a decent soundtrack to boot - go look up the youtube reviews.
Gemini Rue- very Phillip K Dick type atmosphere- I'm only an hr or so into this adventure but it's very engrossing so far.

I should probably try and finish the campaign of Dawn of War II: Retribution this week. I'm playing as the Imperial Guard, and it's sort of fun.

I'm still playing the crap out of Arkham City. I can't tell if the comments of one of the side characters are about what happens later on in the story of this game or if he's prognosticating about the story of a future game. It's a shame Mark Hammill is done being the Joker though the parts of this game without him weren't nearly as much fun.

What do you make of DOW retribution? Does it add much to DOW2 and chaos rising?
December 4th, 2011, 11:14 AM #1387
It does, but not. Instead of the campaign being just for one faction, instead it's basically a one-size-fits-all deal for all six races (Eldar, Imperial Guard, Orks, Chaos, Space Marines, Tyranids) but there's some nice variety in the missions. The load out of your armies is different, too, instead of improving your squads like you did in the first two, you have four heroes per faction and aside from the "main" hero, they can either be used as themselves or you can replace them with an honour guard with extra benefits such as more population (so you can field bigger armies), extra damage for certain units and so forth. And unlike the rather irritating points scheme from the first two, you get one point per level for a skill or a boost, and some of those apply to your units if you don't take said hero.
THQ/Relic have gone mad with the DLC, though, and largely I would stress you don't bother with it unless you get the complete pack on sale, as very little of it truly adds anything to the game. The Tau Commander hero for Last Stand seemed funky from what I'd seen, but unless you've exhausted the other heroes or need something special, he's really not worth the non-sale asking price.
I prefer it to the first two, I must admit.
December 4th, 2011, 11:18 AM #1388
I've started playing AC Revelations but to be honest the game bores me quite quickly and I can only manage an hour a day at best.
Maybe I shouldn't have started it directly after finishing Brotherhood.
I liked the improvements they made to the combat in Brotherhood i.e. you could wipe out entire platoons of guards in seconds using the hidden blade as an open combat weapon.
The latest installment feels like a filler though, as if the game designers are merely treading water until they write a decent conclusion to the series. (a little like Brotherhood)
As for the "Revelations" I doubt there is anything players of the series hadn't already figured out for themselves.
What cracks me up is how the game world is described as "sandbox". It quite clearly isn't, especially with the secondary "attain full synch" parameters attached to EVERY mission you do.
So I'm just piling through the main quest arc asap and pretty much ignoring the peripheral quests etc.
I should probably add that I was a big fan of this franchise and loved the first two games.

I started up a new character in Skyrim yesterday. I accidentally did a quest that pushed me further along the main story line than I wanted to be, so I decided to go back to the drawing board.

The Core Short Sleeve is an ideal next-to-skin piece for hot weather hunting conditions.
Practically essential to any and every Sitka System, the Core baselayer series is designed purely for moisture wicking and comfort, utilizing 4-way stretch fabric. By literally pulling moisture off the surface of your skin, the Core garments are critical for keeping you dry from the inside out. The Core Series is made of 100% polyester bi-component technology that actively moves moisture away from the skin. To ensure a scent free hunt, the Core fabric utilizes silver encapsulated technology that kills odor-causing bacteria and is now offered in a short sleeve version.
"Evaporating perspiration is absolutely critical to maintain proper body temperature. The Core Crew short sleeve moves moisture from your body to the fabric so it can quickly evaporate. Whether on a single day hunt, a big expedition hunt, or a day trail running or mountain biking, the Core Crew is with me almost every day of the year. I'll wear it when I want to blend in with the rest of the herd on the plane after an adventure, but still need to fly the Sitka flag."
- Sitka Athlete Kiviok Hight
The Crew Core SS works great for shed hunts, scouting trips and even at 3D shoots. The piece works as advertised!
A must have for the early season. Unreal how well this shirt will keep you dry when scouting or hunting in the heat.
Love this T. Perfect for preparing for the season in the Oklahoma heat. Perfect for dove hunting as well! Keeps you cool even on the hottest days.
This is it. The bottom of the pile. The core is your mountain t-shirt but it won't give away your position like a sleeveless flannel with a Def Leppard doo-rag. It comes in Optifade, it fits, and it wicks moisture. I like the fact it doesn't stick to my belly like ceran wrap on a wet tuna sandwich, but now I'm just bragging. I test gear for Gore but I bought this with my own money. In fact, I bought 2.
Great piece of gear, comfortable and durable. Does everything it says it will.
Love this stuff!!! I hunt in the South!!! Early season temps can reach 90+. So having a shirt to wick moister and kill odor is awesome. You can not go wrong with the Core Crew shirt. I am Not a Gore product tester. I just hunt hard. .
You are only as good as your foundation. That is true when building a house. That is true in life. And that is true in layering your hunting system. I test gear for Gore and all my systems start with this piece. Whether I am using the Core LS or SS, it makes up the foundation for my clothing in hot and cold weather. I even use it to work-out and like it so much that I bought four dozen of them to give out as promotional items for my growing business. The Core shirt is a great piece to start with for anyone just getting their Sitka collection going.
Loving sitka!Hunting here in the South East it can get warm!! Very warm! Enjoyed the ability to wear a short sleeve shirt into the stand early season! Used the long sleeve zip to layer in the evening! Have purchased the Fanatic bibs and jacket for late season! look forward to trying them out!

text: PanPastel Colors are genuine artists' quality pastels, uniquely packed in a pan format. PanPastel Colors were developed so that artists can easily lift, apply and control pastel color, just like true painting! The pan format holds the color like paint for easy application. Loaded with the highest quality artists' pigments; PanPastel Colors are made using a unique manufacturing process requiring minimal binder and fillers, resulting in a rich, ultra soft and low dust formulation. All of these professional quality colors are highly pigmented, have excellent lightfastness and are fully erasable. Each pan contains 40%* more material than the average pastel stick. PanPastel Colors are fully compatible with traditional pastel sticks, pastel surfaces, conventional fixatives and other artists' colors. For pastel painting and mixed media work, use PanPastel Colors to: • Quickly block in large areas of color in seconds, e.g. for backgrounds and underpainting • Achieve a more painterly effect in pastels • Apply controlled marks – from intense strokes to delicate marks • Build up multiple layers while controlling the surface "tooth" fill • Apply ultra thin "glazing" layers & veils of color The colors can be mixed and blended together, eliminating the need to invest in hundreds of colors for a complete pastel painting palette. PanPastel packaging protects the colors, keeping them separate and clean. Making them perfect for both studio work, and for traveling / plein air work. The pans interlock securely together making it easy to store and organize the colors, minimizing the amount of storage space required.

^good point. That's another thing I love about resort snowboarding: no "paddling" back up the mtn
however, I do think hiking (especially in powder), is more a lot tiring than paddling. You gotta hike up, with low oxygen, quite a long way to get a long/satisfying ride down...repeat. With surfing, even if I get a 5 second ride with two skashes and/or a barrel, I'm stoked.
speaking of which, it's dumping at my local mtn right now. Supposed to get over a foot within the next 2 days. Sure would be nice to have one of those (rare) kick-ass deep early seasons
since i work m-f/9-5 i'd rather surf clean winter waves, even log if its small, then drive 2 hours on a weekened to fight crowds on a small PA mountain. after i went out to visit a friend who moved to utah twice, and was a 10 min walk from the canyons, i think i retired from snowboarding PA/NJ (i am sure i will unretire in a few years).

Strictly surf............
Mountains hands down for now,I don't have to worry about glowing in the dark after a session.
Hate snow, so I stick to surfing. They are also two completely different animals. Anyone can snowboard after very short time on the slope. Not everyone can catch a wave their first day out.

Looking for a good sci-fi book.
I am new to this forum and I was wondering if could get some good suggestions on some books. I enjoy Computer Science and Physics very much in the real world so when it comes to my entertainment I enjoy sci-fi that is about dark science. I enjoy sci-fi about mad scientist and shows like "Fringe" where it is heavy in dark science. Does anyone have suggestions for some good reading in this area? thanks

There's a couple short stories in Ted Chiang's Stories of Your Life and Others that fit that description. Specifically Understand and Division by Zero come to mind. He's a technical writer in the Computer Science field so his style would probably appeal to you. I know I connected with them

Computer science, physics. Maybe these two (a novel split in two, a la Hyperion): Signal to Noise, and A Signal Shattered, by Eric S. Nylund. Highly rated, good reviews. Having read them I can add fascinating. Many hours of sleep were lost to my greater enjoyment.
Part one:
Jack Potter puts computer cryptography to work for the highest bidder: sometimes for private corporations, sometimes for the government. Sometimes the work is legal; if not, Jack simply raises his price. But one day, Jack discovers something cloaked in the hiss of background radiation streaming past the Earth from deep space: a message from an alien civilization. One that's eager to do business with humanity -- and its representative.
Before he knows it, Jack has entered into a partnership that will open a Pandora's Box of potential profit and loss. The governments, the multinationals, and mysterious players more powerful still, all want a piece of the action -- and they're willing to kill, even wage war, to get it. Now Jack is entangled in a shifting web of deceit and intrigue in which no one, not even his closest friends, can be trusted. For Earth's cloak-and-dagger business practices are writ large in the heavens...and hostile takeovers are just as common across light years as they are across boardroom tables.
The Earth is the graveyard of billions, thanks to mathematician and rogue cryptographer Jack Potter and the treacherous extraterrestrial creature known as Wheeler, Jack's one-time business partner in the trade of alien and human technologies. But Potter and a handful of others managed to escape the holocaust thanks to the miracle of teleportation. From the cold gray ruins of the Moon, the last pitiful remnants of the human race now stare down at the devastation that one of their diminished species unwittingly helped to bring about. Here at civilization's end, a beautiful Chinese mind assassin, a cold-blooded cybernetics genius, a DNA-manipulating "gene witch," and Jack himself stand at the threshold of a new day -- when accelerated evolution will open the door to the full achievement of human potential; when the epic saga of humanity will begin again and Jack will ultimately be redeemed...if he doesn't go insane first.
But Wheeler is still out there -- and out to finish what he started. And this universe isn't big enough for Jack Potter to hide himself in.

Tupac Shakur is one of the most dominant figures in the history of hip hop. His recording career lasted just five years from 1991 to his murder in a drive-by shooting in 1996 but established a body of work of an exceptionally high standard which achieved massive commercial success. Since his death there have been a number of posthumous DVD releases variously purporting to tell the "story" of Tupac Shakur through interviews and documentary footage. This DVD release is different. It captures the sheer raw excitement of Tupac live in concert. The whole of the concert at the House Of Blues is included, kicking off with Tupac's set, then Snoop Dogg and Tha Dogg Pound and then Tupac and Snoop together for the two track finale. Definitely not for the faint hearted, the show contains Tupac delivering his strongly held opinions direct to the audience and Snoop holding forth on sex and drugs with his usual gathering of suitably dressed women. The Eagle Vision DVD "Live at the House of Blues" is available now.

VERDI La Traviata / Kleiber 4777115
Kleiber, the great Berlin-born conductor, finds a happy medium in his splendid "Traviata," with Ileana Cotrubas as Violetta and Plácido Domingo as Alfredo, both superb. His tempo for "Un dě felice" has a gentle gait, a bit slower than Toscaniniżs. The restraint allows the singers a little more room to stretch and bend the lines. As the voices blend during the final phrases, they sing with delectable pianissimo tenderness, especially Mr. Domingożs.
Our favorite recording, from Deutsche Grammophon, has a superb cast, that includes Romanian soprano Ileana Cotrubas as an incredibly touching Violetta, Plácido Domingo as Alfredo and Sherrill Milnes as Germont. Carlos Kleiber and the Bavarian State Opera orchestra stir up the passions as few others have on disc.
[Alan Blyth, Gramophone, November 1977]: "Cotrubas's peculiarly plaintive, vibrating timbre and highly individual nuances seem to me perfectly fitted to the part. To those she here adds a sense of involvement and of spontaneity that suggests a live portrayal more palpably than any other on disc. In Act 2, if she does not have you close to tears, you must have a hard heart indeed . . . Kleiber gives the score a Toscanini-like sense of dramatic purpose and impending doom, without being quite as strict with his singers . . . I have no hesitation in recommending this brand-new DG set, which is easily the most warmly recorded of any" . . . Richard Fairman: Cotrubas was the first Violetta I saw in the theatre, at least singing in Italian, and I don't think I have ever seen a better one. As for Carlos Kleiber, he was a god among conductors for me and I didn't miss one of his appearances in London. Put the two together, with Plácido Domingo and Sherrill Milnes in attendance, and the result has to be a recording of high distinction . . . In Kleiber's hands the opera is constantly alive and once he has settled into a certain mood -- the slow, lyrical passages are heavenly -- the sense of expression tingling to the touch is as intoxicating as ever . . . I totally love this Violetta, unbearably tender in "Dite alla giovine", the tears clearly in her voice as she writes her letter to Alfredo. Most sopranos since her have felt too cool by comparison . . . Hugo Shirley: There's an awful lot of quality on show . . . [Kleiber] is superb: fresh and vibrant, detailed but never fussy, heartfelt but never indulgent . . . Cotrubas manages to create a real sense of strength of character through clever acting with the voice, so that you don't feel short-changed at the bigger moments, like "Amami, Alfredo". She also, of course, sings exquisitely in the more intimate passages . . . this set's probably still difficult to beat when it comes to studio recordings in (good) stereo sound, and it's a 'classic' in its own right.
Enregistrement avec un trčs bel équilibre spectral, une bonne définition et une grande dynamique. Voix intégrées avec naturel . . . Fętons la dignement, et apprécions la qualité du transfert, supérieure, comme souvent dans la collection "Originals", ŕ celle des premiers CD parus.
. . . une vision de chef, fulgurante, dont le génie pousse vers la transcendance les trois protagonistes.
. . . aucun ne m'est plus précieux que "La Traviata" de Carlos Kleiber, avec Ileana Cotrubas . . . On sent le magnétisme qu'il exerce sur ses interprčtes ŕ chaque phrase, ŕ chaque mot. Je vais peut-ętre paraître vieux jeu, mais l'opéra italien est, plus que tout autre, une affaire de chef! Il est le centre de gravité du drame, son architecte; les transitions de tempo, les nuances et les accents du phrasé seront sublimés par de grands chanteurs, mais ne peuvent exister sans ce geste originel. En dépit des différences énormes entre leurs tempéraments et leurs esthétiques, Kleiber est selon moi celui qui a le mieux retenu la lecon de Toscanini quant ŕ l'impératif d'un tel contrôle.

Crowdfunding a potential recipe for disaster
Blog Entry:
July 24, 2013 4:30 AM | Author: JEFFREY KADLIC
Jeffrey Kadlic is the co-founder and managing partner of
Evolution Capital Partners
, a small business private equity firm.
In the age-old debate over the hotly contested concept of "fairness," Wall Street and Main Street frequently find themselves at odds. Sitting in one corner are the "insiders," those fluent in the obscure financial vernacular of capital markets and who make their living trading, investing and arbitraging a dizzying array of financial instruments. And in the other corner are those living outside the financial fishbowl and who spend most of their time working in what is colloquially referred to as the "real economy."
While this blog is too short to tackle all of the issues associated with Main Street vs. Wall Street, I'd like to take a moment to explore the approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission of the JOBS Act, encompassing "crowdfunding" and the notion of allowing "non-accredited" investors the opportunity to support startup businesses.
While I applaud the thought, this is a potential recipe for disaster. I believe it misses the mark with regard to how non-accredited investors could benefit financially without getting blindsided while supporting innovation and jobs.
In a
New York Times
op-ed, former Wall Street financier and Obama's "car czar" Steven Rattner expressed his dismay, calling it the "greatest loosening of securities regulation in modern history." He says unaccredited investors have a better chance of buying a winning lottery ticket than seeing a return on a startup with even a modest track record and growth prospects.
The way the crowdfunding program is currently designed is that broker-dealers, who are licensed by the SEC, will underwrite and be paid a fee of between 8% and 12% to sell securities to individual unaccredited investors. Keep in mind that these broker-dealers are not investing in these companies. Their incentives are different. My analogy would be the now relatively non-existent mortgage broker who "underwrote" mortgage loans, took a fee and moved on to the next loan leaving the buyer and seller of the mortgage, who had a vested interest in the outcome, to deal with the awful aftermath if there was a default.
While I expect that most broker-dealers will try hard and act in good faith, the question remains: "What qualifies them to underwrite very tricky startup technologies?" I have invested in private equity for more than 15 years and do not feel qualified to underwrite startups and feel less comfortable having a broker-dealer taking a fee doing the underwriting for me.
My suggestion, while some will say is self-serving, is to have unaccredited investors not invest directly in startups, but invest in venture capital funds, which invest in startups, or private equity funds, which invest in more established businesses.
Investing in a fund offers diversification, which may be the most important consideration in ANY investment style. Secondly, you have professional underwriters that look at these types of businesses EVERY DAY. Third, unaccredited investors are investing with professionals who also are investing their own money, creating an important alignment of interests. The fees over time might be higher (2% or less per year), but fund professionals do not make any "life-changing" incentives until after ALL investors get their money back plus some level of predetermined return.
Venture capital and private equity funds already are equipped and staffed with experienced professionals to make smart risk/return judgments on investments. They are required to adhere to many securities laws, which are only increasing.
Are there things the venture capital and private equity industry can and should do better to best serve unaccredited investors? Yes. But this industry is well established and funds have lengthy track records. It stands to reason that past performance is the best predictor of future performance.
My opinion: Give unaccredited investors the option to invest and diversify away from Wall Street in private securities with established professional investors who have success in underwriting, building and exiting great investments that adhere to most, if not all, securities laws. This is in contrast to investing directly in companies that most, if not all, unaccredited investors are ill-equipped to evaluate, even with the help of misaligned broker-dealers who are just now getting into the business with no experience or track record.

Reinsman® Sharon Camarillo Tender Touch Bit
Reinsman® Sharon Camarillo Tender Touch Bit is an ideal transition bit to move young horses off the snaffle. It also works perfectly for sensitive-mouthed older horses. Copper on the mouth encourages relaxation while the ring in the center allows the bit to have some play so the horse does not feel "trapped" by the bit. Read more...
First in the Tender Touch Series. Use this bit as a transition tool on young horses coming out of the ring snaffle or on sensitive-mouthed older horses. This bit has a lot of flexibility without a lot of curb pressure when turning tight turns. The mouthpiece encourages relaxation in addition to having some flexibility to it. This enables the horse to set the bit to a position that is comfortable for them, and allows the rider to lift one side of the bit at a time making it ideal for training. 5" cheeks, 5 1/2"mouth.
Premier product - this product is not eligible for any discounts off the purchase price.
Overall Rating: 5 StarsAverage Based on 3 Reviews Write a Review
I've been looking for a new bit for my Barrel Horse, I've tried many but can't find any that work out. I came across this bit because of my old riding teacher. It gives me exactly what I want for my Barrel Horse. I suggest this for anyone who is looking to do barrel racing.
This is a very nice transition bit for colts coming out of the snaffle. I use with or without a curb. Most horses accept this bit with NO fuss. You'll get just enough bend and shoulder lift to bring along the young horse and there's plenty for the seasoned horse as well.
This bit was perfect for mtraining. If you properly teach your horse how to stop with your weight for barrels and the basics of leg aids, this bit is just enough to keep their shoulders up and have a nice whoa.

Let's stop ruining this great win with talk of 'him'. He has about 10 threads to himself already.
wow what a win even without AD n Gordon. Amazing defense by our guys.
I'm uploading now the highlights from Rivers n Aminu.
Our defense is ridiculously good.
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
With EJ it seems as that the dude isn't that great socially that's probably why his comments can be seen as "iffy". He just isn't that great with handling the media, stop jumping to conclusions.

With purple and pinstripes from days gone by, I trumpet Hugo's name to the NOLA sky. When rebranders and posers abuse their might, beware my power, TEAL LANTERN'S LIGHT!
Forever hating the nickname, the logos, and the colors. Still backing the team I've loved since 1994.
Stolen name. Stolen colors. Stolen identity. Still the same old worthless Slobcats. Suck sludge, Charlotte.
Bulls C Joakim Noah: "Robin (Lopez) played great tonight. Jason (Smith) played great tonight. You have to give credit when credit is due."
And just when the Louisiana sports night was going great...Les Miles completely pisses away the game to Alabama....glad Hornets won to keep me from throwing my TV out a window.
Thanks for the pics....they are awesome.
Gravy's shoes are sweet.
Great win for the boys. I love how hard they play. Jason Smith is better than I ever imagined he'd be. Same goes for Robin Lopez. Hope we can keep this going.
Haha, Rivers looks like he is about to take out Hamilton's ankle!

Thank you for making such a beautiful gift basket. My friend had been confined home and couldn't get to the store. I thought this would help. She loved it. The fruit was fresh and delicious. Thank you again.

Better than expected by far! September 14, 2013
I have sent many food baskets to many people from many different companies. I have always received thanks and compliments on the baskets, but i have never seen one personally. Recently i sent my mom this basket for her birthday, and she sent me an up close picture of her holding the basket. She is not easily impressed, but she raved about this basket! She said it was huge, beautiful, great variety, and delicious fruit. This is not my first purchase from GiftTree.com, and both times the recipients were overly complimentary and completely impressed with their gifts. In fact, since Gift Tree offers such a variety, i don't see any reason to go anywhere else in the future. I love this company but more importantly the SUPERIOR QUALITY of their items, which is a rare thing these days.

Eudemons Online
Eudemons Online Overview
Eudemons Online is an interesting 2.5D Fantasy MMORPG by TQ Digital. Like TQ Digital's other games, Eudemons has a fast leveling system. The game's most interesting feature is the game's pet system. Players can hatch, raise, and train their own "Eudemons". Players can take 12 Eudemons along with them and summon up to 3 Eudemons to aid them in battle. Over 100 distinctive Eudemons are ready to assist you in your epic adventure! The game's playable classes are:
Warrior – Warriors have the strongest melee damage in the game along with superior defensive capabilities, but they lack ranged skills.
Mage – Mages are capable of dealing massive amounts of damage using their area of effect skills. They have perhaps the highest damage in the game, but have relatively low hit points and defensive capabilities compared to other classes.
Paladin – Paladins are a hybrid of the Warrior and Mage class. They have powerful melee attack and strong magic capabilities.
Vampire – Vampires are the most mysterious class. This class is a great combination of strong melee combat and magical support, with potential for both PvP and team play.
Necromancer – Necromancers can summon their own necro creatures to aid them in battle. In order to summon these, they may sacrifice Eudemons. Necro creatures are powerful and untradable.

Eudemons Online Review
By, Omer Altay
If you've played any of TQ Digital's other games, Eudemons Online will feel a bit too familiar. I'm not sure why TQ Digital does this, but all of their games; Zero Online, Conquer Online, Eudemons Online and Crazy Tao have virtually the same core gameplay, interface and features. The only thing that differentiates TQ Digital's games from each other is their graphics and some other minor differences. If you're going to play one of TQ Digital's games, it might as well be Eudemons or Zero Online as they're the most feature rich and have the largest playerbase. Even though Eudemons Online plays a lot like several other games, it's still enjoyable.
Starting Out
Upon logging in and creating my character, I wasn't surprised to learn that the game had a very limited character creation system, as all of TQ Digital's games have the same issue. Character creation is limited to selecting a gender, an avatar and one of the game's three classes, Warrior, Magician and Paladin. Upon creating my Magician and entering the game world, I was pleased to find out that Eudemons had the same auto movement feature that Zero Online had. The auto moving feature, also called path finding, allows players to quickly locate and automatically move to any NPC in town by simply selecting it from the path finding dropdown list. The drop down list also includes nearby hunting spots outside of town, so players will never become lost. One complaint I had with Eudemon's core gameplay is that the game feels way too easy. My level 1 magician was able to quickly kill dozens of monsters outside of town with ease by simply spamming my area of effect spell 'WindBeads'. The monsters feel more like XP piñatas than they do monsters, as they often don't even try to attack you back while you blast them with spells. What makes the combat even more broken though is the game's 'XP skills' which are ridiculously over powered and poorly designed.
XP Skills? What are those?
If you're going to play Eudemons, you need to understand how the game's 'XP skills' work. When the yellow meter above the hotkey area fills up, players can use their powerful 'XP skills' which last for a good 20 seconds or so and allow players to obliterate almost any enemy in a single hit. On my level 29 Magician my regular spells deal 150-500 damage, but my 'XP skills' deal well over 12,000 damage a hit, and the fact that I can use them for a full 20 seconds or so makes it even more imbalanced. Eudemons Online awards experience points based on damage dealt, so the experience gained while using 'XP skills' are simply massive. You'd imagine that since the 'XP skills' are so powerful it would take a great deal of effort to fill up the yellow 'XP skill' meter, but that isn't the case here. In fact, the meter fills up on its own without any input or effort from the user. At first, I simply couldn't believe this, so I decided to leave my character stationary for a few minutes and kept an eye on my 'XP skill' meter and to my surprise it did begin filling up. Since the meter fills up on its own, I've concluded that it isn't worth grinding whenever the meter isn't full, so I recommend players simply leave the game open at a safe area near some monsters and simply begin playing only when their 'XP skill' mater is filled up, as the amount of XP gained while using your skill meter is full is massive compared to the regular XP gain.
Eudemon System
Eudemon Online's most notable feature is without a doubt the game's Pokémon like Eudemon raising system. A Eudemon is sort of like a Pokémon, in that they follow you around and help you out in combat. As they gain experience they evolve into more powerful Eudemons and learn new skills. The first Eudemon evolution takes place at level 20 and the second one at level. Players can carry up to 12 Eudemons at once and with existence of over 30 unique Eudemons the possibilities are vast. Players can also combine their Eudemons to try and create stronger ones. The system itself is quite impressive, but I would have liked to see more total Eudemons and a tutorial that explained the system thoroughly, because as it stands, the game leaves too much for players to figure out on their own.
Final Verdict – Good
Even with the game's obvious flaws, the game still has a large vibrant community and an innovative pet raising system. With its open PvP environment, Eudemons has a strong emphasis on PvP, so if PvP isn't your cup of tea, try another game.

Santa's siren: Farmington police escort St. Nick for annual Blue Light visit
Thursday, December 27, 2012
FARMINGTON — On Christmas Eve, the Stormanns practiced a family tradition played out every year for the last eight years.
"I think it's just great to live in a town that has a program like that," Matt Stormann added, who has lived in Farmington for the last 13 years with his wife Bobbie. "It says a lot about the police department," "
Bobbie said the police stop has been such a regular occurrence every holiday season, the boys asked this year to make sure Santa would be back again. And Grammy Pamela Ridley visited from Lincoln, Maine, to experience the occasion.
"I think she loves it just as much as the boys do," Bobbie said.
Willey said by the end of Christmas Eve — with approximately 16 house stops lasting 15 minutes from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Dec. 24 — he is wiped out.
"You know, it's a lot of fun being Santa but it's also a lot of work too," he said. "That poor guy, I don't know how he does it all year long."
Willey, who lives in Rochester, said about five years ago, his family got used to him not being around for most of the evening the day before Christmas, but then his wife asked if she could help out. Willey's stepdaughter said she wanted to be a part of it this year, as well
The Stormanns said their eldest son, Jacob, has always had a fascination with police cars and fire trucks, so the special program has always been a special treat for him. Willey said he has remembered Jacob every year since he was a toddler.
The family posed around their Christmas tree with Santa, while the red-suited curly-bearded man chuckled and "ho-hoed."
Bobbie said they would celebrate the rest of the evening with a special lobster dinner they have every year.
Asked what she loves the most about the magical night, Bobbie Stormann said seeing "the excitement" of her children.
"Especially when they were little …," she said. "I think they would be disappointed if Santa didn't come."

Jan 14, 2013 6:44 PM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHOENIX (AP) - Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer says she will expand the state's Medicaid program to cover citizens who earn up to 138 percent of the poverty line.
The Republican governor said Monday in her annual State of the State speech that she has fought against the federal health care law known as the Affordable Care Act. But she cited President Barack Obama's re-election and last summer's U.S. Supreme Court ruling in saying that the law is here to stay.
The Supreme Court did give states the option of not signing on to the expansion. But Brewer says virtually all of the expansion will be funded by the federal government, and not taking the money wouldn't contribute to the lowering of federal deficits.
She added that expanding Medicaid will help poor Arizonans and help hospitals and caregivers who now must give care without pay.
