MERCHANDISE DISPLAY AND DISPENSING DEVICE Filed May 5, 1960 4 Sheets-Sheet 3 S v r March 26, 1963 w. R. vos ETAL MERCHANDISE DISPLAY AND DISPENSING DEVICE Filed May 5, 1960 4 Sheets-Sheet 4 This invention pertains to a dispenser and, in particular, to a novel device for displaying and dispensing merchandise.
Heretofore, it has been the practice in the merchandise display art to provide trays rather narrow in depth for the articles of display merchandise, in order that such articles may remain visible to the customer after the front ranks of the stacked articles of merchandise therein may have been removed. In this regard, the bulk of the cubic space of the display cabinet would not be utilizable for dispensing merchandise from the front thereof. Economic use of the non-display space was made only by providing a storage area separate from the display area, access to such non-display space being made available by means of doors or drawers which opened only to the rear of the cabinet. Of course, additional drawers and storage space could be provided at the front of the cabinet beneath the display area, but that utilization of space would not solve the problem of economical employment of the space behind the rather narrow display area. Rear access to the non-display space necessarily rendered it utilizable only for purposes of storage, since it was not readily available for easy access in dispens ng merchandise directly to the customer.
It is an object of this invention to provide a dispenser of a simple and economical construction that may be used in the displaying and dispensing of merchandise such as knit and woven underwear.
Another object of the invention is to provide a dispenser which not only enables a merchant to keep the merchandise in visible attractive display, but also allows merchandise to be stored all the way to the back of the unit, thereby resulting in total utilization of the entire cubic space occupied by the fixture.
A further object of the invention is to provide a dispenser having a compartment :for containing a plurality of items of merchandise in which such items are sandwiched between a front retaining bar and a rear retaining panel, which is biased toward the front of the compartment, so that merchandise stored at the back of the unit automatically is advanced forwardly to replace items that are removed from the front of the unit.
A yet further object of the invention is to provide a dispenser for displaying merchandise in which a plurality of items are aligned from front to rear therein between a forwardly-biased rear retaining panel and a rearwardly-biased, hinged, front retaining'bar.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a ispenser cabinet comprising a plurality of displaying and dispensing units, which may be readily arranged in a pleasing and aesthetic appearance so as to attract the eye of the customer.
These and other objects of the invention will be apparent upon reading the specification with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIGURE 9A is a front elevation of the modification shown in FIGURE 9;
FIGURE 10 is a sectional view in front elevation of another modification of the dispensing device showing a diiferent embodiment for the rear retaining panel and carriage; and
FIGURE 10A is an enlarged view of the modification shown in FIGURE 10,
Referring now to the drawings, FIGURES 1 through 3 show a plurality of dispensers 11 mounted on shelves within a display cabinet, and FIGURES 5 through 8 show the construction of the dispenser unit 11 from its component parts, so as to form a compartment 12 therein for containing items or" merchandise 13, such as knit or woven underwear.
The dispenser 11 and compartment 12 therein may be constructed of a base I l, including a front member 15, a rear member 16 and side members 17. These members may be suitably attached to one another so as to form a rectangular construction, as shown in FIGURE 7.
Another component of the dispenser 11 and the compartment 12 consists of a front retaining wall 18, which may be formed of a holding member 19 in which is suitably mounted a front retaining bar 2%). One method of mounting the retaining bar 20 is by force fitting it in holder 19, as shown in FIGURE 5. The holder 19 may be attached to the front member I5 of the base il iby any suitable means, such as by gluing and screws or nails 21.
Formation of the compartment 12, also includes the provision of a rear retaining wall 22, which may be angular in cross section, as shown in FIGURE 5, and mounted by means of its lower portion 23 to a carriage 24 by any suitable means, such as by screws 25. The carriage 24 has guide slots 26 running parallel to the horizontal plane of the carriage, as shown in FIGURE 6. The guide slots 26 co-act with the guide rails 27 mounted in the side portions of the side members 17, so as to provide a track on which the carriage 24 and rear wall 22 may be reciprocated axially within the dispenser 11.
The rear retaining wall 22 may be reciprocated by means of the carriage 24 along the track 27 between a a first position located near the front of the dispenser and a second position located near the rear of the dispenser. The rails 27 in combination with the guide slots 26 on the carriage 24 act to prevent movement of the carriage 24 and the rear retaining wall 22 in directions other than toward the first and second positions.
The carriage 24 and the rear retaining wall 22 are biased toward the front of the compartment 12 by any suitable means, such as by the coil spring 28. One method of employing a coil spring to bias the rear retaining wall 22 forward toward the front retaining wall 18 is shown in the drawings. As can be seen from FIGURES 5 and 8, the spring 28 passes through the slot 29 in the bottom of the carriage 24 and into the slot 30' in the rear portion of the front member 15 of the base 14, and is anchored at one end ,to the front member 15 by means of the anchor pin 31, threaded through the hole 3 2 in the front member 15, and at the other end to the carriage 24 by any suitable anchon snch as the staple 33.
V The front retaining wall 18 co-acts with the forwardbiased rear retaining wall 22 to form a means for aligning the articles of merchandise 13 within the dispenser 11 from front to rear, such means constituting two walls of the compartment 12.
Completing the arrangement of the component parts of the dispenser 11, and in order .to align themerchandise from side to side within the compartment 12, one or more side panel bars 34 are provided. The side panel bar 34 may be mounted on the side member 17 of the base 14 by any suitable means, such as by the use of the tab 35 on the bottom of the side panel bar 34, which tab rests in the slot 36 in the top portion of the side member 17.
To present a more pleasing appearance and to provide unimpaired accessto the items of merchandise displayed in the dispenser, the portion of the side panel bar 34 facing the front of the dispenser unit may have an inclined edge, such as that shown in reference 37.
It will now be seen that a plurality of dispensing units 11 may be mounted in one or more shelves 38, spaced from and related to one another by means of a suitable structural wall, such as the inclined wall '39. In turn, these shelves 38 may be mounted within a cabinet, as shown in FIGURE 1 and FIGURE 3, in any suitable manner so as to adequately display the dispensing units 11 for advantageous access in dispensing items of merchandise to the customer.
One embodiment of such a cabinet is shown generally at reference 40, in FIGURES l and 3, and may be formed of; a base j41, legs 42, front member 43, back member 44 andsidemembers 45 into which the shelves 38 may be suitably mounted, such as in the inclined planes shown in FIGURE 3. However, mounting the dispensers 11 on an inclination is not a necessary feature of the invention, and they, may be mounted iust as advantageously in a horizontal plane. As will be readily seen from FIGURE 3, the dispenser unit 11 extends to the rear of the cabinet 4!), thus utilizingsubstantially all of the available space for dispensing the articles of merchandise 13 at the front of the cabinet.
The upper portion of back member 44 may be suitably utilized for mounting a display tray 46 within a support member 47 by means of the leg 48 seated within a seat 49 in the back wall 44, such tray 46'being additionally supported by a suitable arm 50.
Que modification of the dispensing device is shown in FIGURES 9 and 9A. Instead of the stationary front retaining bar 20, a spring-operated, retaining member 51 may be hingeclly mounted on the front wall holder 19, such as in the manner illustrated. The lower portion 52 of the springybar -1 may be bent outwardly or inwardly at right angles-thereto, so as to lay in parallel relation to the holder 19. This lower portionr52may be mounted within asuitable sleeve 54 which is secured to the holder 19 and about which is mounted a coil spring 55 attached at one end to the spring bar 51 and at the other end to thesleeve 54. The sleeve 54 is attached to the holder 19 by any suitable means, such as by the screws 56. The spring bar 51 is prevented from moving further forward than normal to theholder 19 by means of the spring bar stop 53.
Another modification is shown inFIGURES and 10A, in whichthe rear retaining wall 22 has been replaced by a rear retaining member 58, mounted by any suitable means such as by spot welding on a rod 59, which is in turn suitably secured to a modified carriage 60. As illustrated more clearly in FIGURE 10A, the carriage .60 .is a. horizontal member adapted to be reciprocated axially within the base member 14 between the front and rear of the dispenser 11. In this regard, the carriage 60 rides within a track in the form of a slot 61 in the base 14. The carriage 60 and the rear retaining member 58 are biased toward the front of the dispenser 11 in the same manner as the carriage 24 and the rear retaining wall 22, that is, by a suitable biasing means, such as the spring 28, anchored to the carriage 60 by the staple 33 and to the base 14 or front retaining wall 18 by the anchor pin 31, in the same manner as is illustrated in FIGURE 5. To provide clearance for the spring 28, a suitable indentation, such as the slot 62, is provided in the base 14.
It will be apparent that'the invention may be modified so as to be applicable to other types of merchandise for display.
Although the invention has been described in terms of preferred embodiments, it is contemplated that these are merely by way of example and in no manner to be construed as limitations. It is apparent that certain modifications may be made within the scope of the claims without departing from the spirit of the invention.

Re: Should illegal aliens who give birth in this country be allowed to stay as legal residents because their newborns are?
Doubled,William Wayne Justice was the Federal District Court Judge and NEVER sat on the U.S. Supreme Court. SO YOU ARE WRONG AGAIN. IN 1896 THE U.S. SUPREME COURT WAS THE AUTHORITY TO INFER THE 14TH AMENDMENT ON ILLEGAL ALIENS AND NOT WILLIAM WAYNE JUSTICE Read the case of Wong Wing v, U.S., 163 U.S. 228 (1896) That is a U.S. Supreme Court case that states illegal immigrants do have constitutional rights under the 14th amendment and that the Constitution does NOT just apply to CITIZENS.

CANBERRA, Australia - An Australian icebreaker carrying 52 passengers who were retrieved from an icebound ship in the Antarctic was told to halt its journey home on Friday after concerns that a Chinese vessel involved in the dramatic rescue may also become stuck in the heavy sea ice.
The icebreaker Aurora Australis had been slowly cracking through thick ice toward open water after a Chinese helicopter on Thursday plucked the passengers from their stranded Russian research ship and carried them to the Aurora.
But on Friday afternoon, the crew of a Chinese icebreaker that had provided the helicopter said they were worried about their own ship's ability to move through the ice. The Aurora — which was carrying the passengers to the Australian island state of Tasmania — was told to stay in the area in case the Chinese icebreaker Snow Dragon needs help, according to the Australian Maritime Safety Authority's Rescue Coordination Centre, which oversaw the rescue.
The Snow Dragon, which is at the edge of the ice pack surrounding the Russian vessel, will attempt to push through the ice to open water early Saturday, when tidal conditions are most favourable. The Aurora is waiting around 11 kilometres (7 miles) north of the Snow Dragon, said Lisa Martin, spokeswoman for the marine authority.
Authorities have not said what the next step would be if the Snow Dragon became stuck, but it is possible that the Aurora will utilize its icebreaking capabilities to assist the Chinese vessel.
The maritime authority said the decision to place the Aurora on standby was a precaution and noted there was no danger to anyone on board the Snow Dragon. But it was yet another wrinkle in the highly complex rescue operation of those on board the Russian ship MV Akademik Shokalskiy, which got stuck in the ice on Christmas Eve.
A spot of clear weather on Thursday finally allowed the multinational rescue operation after blinding snow, strong winds and thick sea ice forced rescuers to turn back time and again.
The twin-rotor helicopter, which is based on the Snow Dragon, took seven hours to carry the scientists and tourists in groups of 12 from the Russian ship to the Aurora. Earlier, the passengers had linked arms and stomped out a landing site in the snow next to the Russian ship for the helicopter.
Helicopter pilot Jia Shuliang told China's official Xinhua News Agency that he had no way of knowing whether the ice could withstand the helicopter's weight.
The rescue came in the never-ending daylight of summer after days of failed attempts to reach the vessel.
"I think everyone is relieved and excited to be going on to the Australian icebreaker and then home," expedition leader Chris Turney told The Associated Press by satellite phone from the Antarctic.
Sydney resident Joanne Sim, a paying passenger, wept as she boarded the Australian icebreaker. She said the passengers had spent their time watching movies and playing games.
"It really has been an emotional rollercoaster," she told a reporter from The Sydney Morning Herald newspaper who is aboard the ship.
The 22 crew members of the Akademik Shokalskiy stayed with the icebound vessel, which is not in any danger and has enough supplies on board to last for weeks. They will wait until the ice surrounding the ship breaks up, which could take several weeks, ASMA Emergency Response Division manager John Young said.
"Only now am I sort of feeling a bit emotional about leaving the Shokalskiy," Alok Jha, a journalist from The Guardian who is travelling with the Akademik Shokalskiy, said in a video shot before he boarded the helicopter. "The poor old thing is stuck still."
The cost of the rescue would be carried by the owners of the ships and their insurers, in accordance with international conventions on sea rescues, Young said.
Any official inquiry into how the ship got stuck would have to be conducted by Russia, he said.
The Akademik Shokalskiy, which left New Zealand on Nov. 28, got stuck after a blizzard pushed the sea ice around the ship, freezing it in place about 2,700 kilometres (1,700 miles) south of Hobart, Tasmania. The scientific team on board the Russian vessel had been recreating Australian explorer Douglas Mawson's 1911 to 1913 voyage to Antarctica.
Associated Press writers Kristen Gelineau in Sydney, Adam Schreck in Dubai, and Gillian Wong and researcher Zhao Liang in Beijing contributed to this report.

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) introduced a bill Wednesday that would expand reproductive health-care coverage for women in the military and their families.
"Justice?" says one of the women who took desperate steps to leave the violence in her home country. "That's for those who have money. For the poor, there is none."
Jessica De Samito, who is six months pregnant and needs methadone maintenance therapy to maintain her pregnancy, will continue treatment at home.
Advocates for 30-year-old Jessica De Samito, who is 24 weeks pregnant, say a Texas county jail is withholding the methadone treatment she needs to sustain her pregnancy.
The House passed its version of the defense bill last week, with some wins and losses on sexual assault and a few boons for new moms.
Two veterans advocacy groups filed a lawsuit this week alleging that the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs is making it harder for military sexual assault survivors to claim disability for PTSD than other veterans.
In the month before Afghanistan's presidential elections on April 5, three deadly attacks occurred against journalists who became targets of terror. I was once a war reporter. Now I write about war from a distance.
At a hearing that featured the searing testimony of survivors of sexual assault in the military, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand told RH Reality Check that her proposal to remove the prosecution of sex crimes from the chain of command would see debate on the Senate floor in the coming weeks.
An attempt to bring up for debate measures designed to address sexual assault in the military, including Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand's bid to remove prosecution of sex crimes from the chain of command, was scuttled on Monday.
The military's emphasis on discipline, rank, and teamwork, combined with rule-based conducts, regimented eating, and grueling physical training mirrors the mindset often associated with eating disorders.

While I was trying not to die running this morning, I was trying to think of topics to research for today's edition of Monday Medical News and thought what could be better than exercise and chronic illness as it at least made it easier for me to push through the run thinking that there had to be great benefits of exercising with chronic illness (besides the obvious of course that apply to all people, not just spoonies). So I was so excited when I came across this article published by Health Day News, especially since I have recently shared my anxiety issues after my Celiac diagnosis.

TUESDAY, Feb. 23 (HealthDay News) — People suffering from anxiety can find some relief through regular exercise, University of Georgia researchers report.
Anxiety frequently accompanies chronic illnesses such as diabetes and heart disease, and the constant strain can interfere with treatment for those conditions, the researchers say. "While we might expect symptoms of anxiety to be elevated among individuals coping with a chronic medical condition, symptoms may be unrecognized or untreated," said Matthew Herring, a doctoral student in the department of kinesiology and the study's lead author.
Though the role of exercise in alleviating depression symptoms has been well-studied, the impact on anxiety symptoms has received comparatively little attention. "The findings of our review add to the growing body of evidence that physical activities such as walking or weight lifting may be low-cost, effective treatments to help alleviate anxiety symptoms among patients," Herring said.
For the study, published Feb. 22 in the Archives of Internal Medicine, Herring's team reviewed 40 trials that included 2,914 people with various medical conditions, including heart disease, multiple sclerosis, cancer and chronic pain from arthritis. In 90 percent of the studies, people assigned an exercise program had fewer symptoms of anxiety — including feelings of worry, apprehension and nervousness — than did those not assigned to exercise, the researchers found.
In fact, regular exercise was shown to reduce anxiety symptoms by 20 percent. "Even though the majority of these patient groups did not have extremely elevated anxiety symptom scores at the beginning of exercise training, anxiety symptoms were still reduced," Herring said.
Exercising for 30 minutes was more effective in reducing anxiety than shorter periods of exercise, the study found. However, exercise programs that lasted three to 12 weeks were more effective than programs that ran more than 12 weeks, the researchers noted.
"Results showed that patients were more likely to adhere to, or stick with, shorter duration exercise programs, which might account for larger anxiety reductions compared to longer program durations," Herring said. "Stated another way, better participation rates likely will result in greater anxiety reductions."
Tracie Rogers, a sport and exercise psychologist and spokeswoman for the American Council on Exercise, said that regular physical activity doesn't just make us feel better but has "measurable results in reducing anxiety."
"Exercise not only influences your physical health for the better but also your mental health," she said.
And people already getting treatment for anxiety would still benefit from exercise, she said. "For people who are dealing with clinical anxiety who are in therapy or on anti-anxiety medication, it is extremely beneficial for them to be involved in an exercise program," Rogers said. "It has real anxiety-reducing effects, just like those drugs do."
Unwanted side effects keep some people from taking anxiety medications, Rogers said. "Exercise is a real good alternative to that," she said.

This is great!!!! I've used the convention oven to make a roasted vegetable frittata, zucchini muffins, and baked two loaves of bread in it, I still can't believe a microwave was able to do all this, but still haven't used it to "microwave" anything yet but the oven features are amazing!!!!

Eugenia Topiary
Hi I just recently acquired a eugenia topiary...I am un sure of how to care for my new acquisiton. It is a double ball and the bottom ball seems to be much more sparse than the top-how can I get it to fill out? How do I trim it, i.e. pinching the leaves or pruning? How much water should it have and I noticed that when i lift up the moss that covers the soil little tiny bugs that look like fruit flies fly up...should i be concerned about this?
Thanks so much for your help!
hi katie, since it doesn't look like you've gotten a follow-up yet, i'll try to answer as much as i can.(although I've never seen a eugenia (can't find it in any of my books,) but the small flies could be fungus gnats (their larve feed on the plants roots), don't quote me on this. could be the soil is staying too wet for too long a time. try letting it dry out some before watering it again thouroughly. but since I don't know much about eugenia, I wouldn't let it get to the point of wilting. You could even try taking the moss cover off for a while. if you want the moss to stay green, keep it moist and in a cool place out of direct sun.(moss usually grows best with northern exposure). I don't usually put moss on top of soil unless it's a clay pot, although it looks great, it seems to smother the plant and cause other problems. if that doesn't seem to work fast enough you could try drenching the soil with a fungicide. (NOT THE MOSS). ask a knowledgeble clerk at your local garden center about the care of eugenia and those problems, or ask to see the manager if that person doesn't seem to know. since I'm not familar with the plant in question, i won't reccomend any particular product. just be sure to read the entire label and follow the diretions. good luck. as to thickening up the bottom ball, (and keeping the top one looking good too) you could trim it up some, keeping it in a ball shape, or pinch the growing tips (new growth) between two leaves. Be brave, sometimes a little ruthless. it'll grow back somewhere else, (if it's still green) and keep any growth off the stem (trunk) in-between the two balls. By the way, hope it's doing better by now? i'll check back soon. bren P.S. ask about fertilizing it too.
I also have a Eugenia Topiary that is doing well. It is outside in a container (zone 6) and I'll bring it inside for the winter. The optimum temperature for Eugenia is about 70-80 degrees. It seems to enjoy medium to bright light but no direct sun. I believe that the Eugenia is in the same family as myrtle, but am not positive. I'll try to look bit farther for you. I do know thatEugenia resists change, so give it as even an existence as possible
I have acquired a 10" Eugenia Topiary it is currently planted in my front yard garden....my concern is that winter is rapidly approaching.....where I live the temperature can easily reach -30 degress celcius....what do I do to protect my tree from the winter weather...any help or advise will be very much appreciated
I have a pair of Eugenia double-ball topiaries flanking my front door. It is a location that does not get much direct sun, if any. I now realize that one side of the door tends to get more light than the other and those plants (I also have lamium planted in the containers with the Eugenia) are doing much better than the side that does not get as much light.
Although I've read that the Eugenia will tolerate low light, the side getting more light is growing nicely, getting larger, etc., and the other has not changed much. It's frustrating, because I'd like a symmetric look around the door. My latest concern is with the dropping of leaves... the side that is not getting as much light has begun to drop its leaves. Is this most always a cause of not enough water or could it be caused by too much? The lower ball is really looking skimpy now that the leaves are dropping and I'm afraid I'll never get it to catch up. Any ideas? Fertilizer?
I brought my Eugenia in for the winter. I am storing it in my garage. Does this plant go dormant for the winter. I have been watering on a monthly basis since I took it in the garage. The leaves are brown at this time. I live in CT and the winters are below freezing. Thanks for you help.
Regards, Al Canosa
Did the top ball ever fill back in for you? I have the same problem. Two topiaries flanking my entrance and the top ball of one is brown, but the rest of it is still lush. I've watered them the same, so I guess one has received more sun and dried out.
I have two 5 foot Eugenia topiaries. One received more sun then the other and definitely grew bigger. They required TONS of water. Besides that, they did great here in CT during the summer. I have now moved them indoors to a situation with much less light. They both have begun to drop green leaves. Could be adjusting to indoors, too much water or too little water...not sure. Has anyone had success moving these plants indoors for the winter?
Attn: June Patton
The little white fuzzy balls are not harmful. They are small white flowers which are followed by edible rose-purple fruit.
This highly ornamental plant is very suitable for formal gardens and flanking entrance ways. Sometimes called "Australian Brush-Cherry," it is a vigorous evergreen, compact shrub with vivid red leaves when young, later changing to shining green. Fluffy white flowers followed by red berries

Hi, my name is Brandon and I'm an alcoholic...
Sure, it could run. But it would be like running with two broken legs.So it's, not recommended :(
Thanks guys :)
The NA community continues to grow :)
Looking fantastic guys! Keep it up :)
Hello, Brother :)
We want more aggression :D
Nice to see you guys on here :)
Love what you guys are doing :)
You could, it was done on UE2.0 for UT 99, USkaarji.
I voted no because we have over a year of code already written for NA engine which is in c#. Although, we are making plans for something in the near future...
This isnt real... It cant be. Can it?
Star Trek, Stargate, Star Wars(Never been a huge fan of this one).
I grew up in a Star Trek family, so as much as I love Stargate, I have to side with Gene :)
Haha, very nice :)
Is he any relation to the paperclip from the 90's?
Looks very cool :)
I've never heard of this game, even though it says it was released in 2006. Looks great, though.
Like a mini Romulan Warbird, very cool.
How many races are in this game? Fantastic ship, btw.
Awesome :)
Very nice read. I can definitely identify with Charlie on the difficulties of building an indie game with no funding but your own bank account :)
Glad to see you guys have done so well for yourselves!
Hahaha! A last stand :D
Little things like this really show your commitment. Great work, guys!
Coming along nicely :)
Hehe, he looks like a super-mario
I was always a nintendo guy, but I did enjoy sonic 2. Good luck to you!
Good luck :)
Hey, glad to see you working on your game idea :D
Looks really cool.
Thanks for your support!
Thank you for your continued support!
Thanks for the kind comment!
Thanks,Warzone 2100 was an awesome game that unfortunately seems to have been forgotten by most :(
Looks amazing.
Haha, the crawling whip is a nice touch :)
Eyes are for the weak :)
Thanks for the comment :)
I want to test :)
Well that's mean :/
Yup, after much data collecting and planning we feel this is a really great resource system that works great for competitive RTS. May not be some crazy, out of this world idea, but it has all the elements that fuel intense matches. For us, that's all that matters :D
HaHa! freaking nice. Crazy what they thought of almost a hundred years ago.
Well deserved :)
One of my favorite games of all time, thanks for keeping it alive!
I'd kick his ***
Very Nice :)
Another great NA game :)
This is a hit and run unit, best used in small packs. No special abilities other than force shields and upgradable weapon.
There are two other unit though, one for Hyperion the other for the PoM that have an entrench ability. Once of those may be game ready in a month :)
That should be 'Summon'. The Anark'O'Gonda can summon (Spawn) a fully reinforced squad of Mala'Kroop at its location once unlocked.
This looks very promising. Keep us up-to-date!
Very cool :)
Thanks for compliments guys. Interesting association, but could be a positive one. We want a very nerve-grinding, intense experience for the singleplayer campaign, music is definitely a way to achieve that :)
Glad you like the Mala'Kroop, and thanks for watching!
What a great idea, a horror FPS based on warhammer. Why didn't anyone else think of this?
Best of luck, guys!
The thing about the super weapons is that they require skill to use. You cant just build a structure and get that ability. You have to have a level five hero and you have to mark the target for a specific time. Getting super weapons is more of a reward for keeping your hero alive the whole game. However, the ability to turn off super weapons is an interesting one and an easy thing to include :)
'Bullet Bitch' lol thats great :)
The Thunderbolt has always been my favorite aircraft, you guys did it justice!
BTW; Why 25mm for the A60 when the A10 had the 30mm avenger cannon?
Thanks for the comments on Project: Warcry :)
This was done be a new artist, Al Jerek Torrijas.
Even not finished... that is awesome! I think I'll go re-order C&C3 now :O
Looks great, although that Kirov looks like the exact same one from Westwood's Red Alert 2.
Your mammoth chills me to the core, great job guys.
@ Swansen, the Mammoth has SAM weapon systems, see it looking at the grunt^
It shouldnt be tracking inafantry should it?
This is amazing, fantastic work all!
Is this a custom engine?
Cool idea, looks good so far.

Sun means life, cancer for triathete
Survivor cautions others to cover up
Tom Atwell is a triathlete and lifelong surfer. He also runs 100-mile races, trains like crazy on his bike and in the pool, as well as coaches water polo, swimming and surfing at La Jolla High School.
Tom has spent countless hours in the sun. It's his life.
"I remember as a kid, you'd get that first burn, the first bad sunburn of the summer, and you'd say, 'OK, summer's officially begun,' " recalls Tom, 47. For the next few months, he'd wear his tan with teenage pride.
So when Tom's wife, Utahna, would remind him to wear a hat or sunscreen, he'd slough it off. As a survivor of cancer in the 1990s, Atwell felt as if he had a free pass against skin cancer.
Courage through cancerThe unbeatable spirit of San Diegans fighting cancer.
"I'd always joke with my wife that lightning never strikes twice, you know?" he says. "Since I'd already gone through a really significant bout of cancer I thought, 'Aw, I'm fine. I'm fine.' "
But last spring, Tom's doctor discovered skin cancer cells on both his shoulders, the top of his head, his lip and the top of one ear.
Tom says he'd gone to the doctor about once a year to have his skin checked. By last spring, he admits he'd "seen things and kind of tried to ignore it." Finally he made an appointment.
"He took a look at my shoulders and said, 'We need to do a biopsy right now,' " he recalls.
Tom was quickly put on a regimen of chemotherapy. For about nine weeks he received chemo treatments, including injections and skin creams.
So far, he's been fortunate. The cancer wasn't advanced and and his doctors tell him his situation looks good.
"They're going to keep a close eye on me for the next couple of years, make sure there's no recurrence," he says. "The concern is that it moves to places like the brain or the lungs."
Now, Tom, who also teaches history at La Jolla High, never goes outside without a hat and sunscreen.
"I'm much more worried than I was before, for sure," he says. "When I found out, I announced to the swim team and my classes, 'Hey, this is what's going on. I need to stay covered up. So if you see me without a hat on, not covered, I want you to yell at me. I need to be barked at.' "
• • •
Tom and Utahna Atwell have had way too much experience with cancer.
Married 20 years with two children, the Atwells have had to deal with the disease for most of their time together.
First, Tom was diagnosed with a rare and serious form of sarcoma, called malignant fibrous histiocytoma, in 1997. It began as a lump on his hip that grew to be softball-sized. The aggressive form of cancer was conquered with radiation, chemotherapy and the removal of a large chunk of muscles at the top of one leg and buttock. He lost more than 50 pounds and looked emaciated, had to miss months of work and coaching and was so weak he had trouble going up stairs. His recovery was long and hard.

"If you find Honey Singh offensive, kill him by not listening to his songs," remarked a speaker during a session on freedom of speech at the Jaipur Literature Festival today.
Participating in the session, journalist Shoma Chaudhury touched upon the recent controversy over rapper Singh and his music, saying no one should be stopped from doing any form of culture and art performance.
"If you find Honey Singh offensive then boycott him. Kill him by not listening to his music. But you can't ban him," Chaudhury, managing editor of Tehelka magazine, said.
Singh was the centre of a controversy when many groups ran a campaign against him over alleged offensive lyrics of his songs.
Chaudhury said India needs to become a more liberal society.
"We need to become a more liberal society and defend the liberty. The only narrow restriction we must have should be on incitement of violence and discrimination through speech," she said.
"We need to throw open the article 19(2) of our Constitution which restricts our speech...There is no exception to freedom of speech...except for cases which can incite violence we should have no curb," she added.
Most of the panelists and the audience expressed that the country lacks freedom of expression when panel moderator John Kampfner asked them to vote on whether they think India has too much freedom of expression, India has less freedom of expression and that freedom of expression is adequate.
"Raise your hand to whatever option you think is right," Kampfner, who is adviser to Google on freedom of expression and culture, said. To this, majority of the audience raised their hands when it was called that India has less freedom of expression.
Few also raised their hands for the option that India has enough freedom.
The panelists also comprised historian Orlando Figes, John Kampfner, author Basharat Peer and novelist John Burnside.

Ted DaviesPresident, Federal SystemsUnisys
Ted Davies understands that the most successful IT companies balance the demand to develop good technology with their need to develop good talent.
In 2010, Davies embraced the government's cloud-first program and led Unisys in developing a suite of secure cloud solutions. In partnership with Google, Unisys won the first enterprisewide cloud-based software-as-a-service contract — for e-mail and collaboration tools at the General Services Administration. The program is expected to result in a 50 percent cost savings over five years.
But he also remains a tireless advocate of putting people first. Last year, he formed two groups at Unisys: the People Initiatives Board, which seeks to foster an employee-focused environment at the company, and U-Give, which raises funds for disaster relief efforts worldwide and collects food donations for local homeless shelters, among other activities.

Take a Hike up the Stone Mountain
After I had walked around the base of Stone Mountain for a while I had a decision to make. Do I take the tram to and from the top, or drive a little further into the park and take the 1.2 mile hike to the top. A no brainer for me.
I had my "These Shoes Have Hiked In The Swiss Alps" hiking shoes on so I notched up my belt, laced my ties tight and started up the granite stone.
The first 1/4 of the trip is fairly easy which is a good thing, because the middle half gets a bit steeper and the last 1/4, well let's just say it leaves you breathless in more ways then one.
I stopped along the way to take a number of pictures and to catch my breath, as I made my way to the top along with many others both young and old.
When I finally got to the top I took a few more pictures, stopped for a much needed drink of water and then journeyed back down a little quicker, although the trip down puts some strain on these old knees also.
You can also do one way trips on the tram I believe, so if you want to tram up and walk down by all means do it!

Stone Mountain State Memorial Park
Stone Mountain is a quartz monzonite dome monadnock. It rises to 1,686 feet (513 m) elevation and 825 feet (251.5 m) from the ground. If that was not impressive enough, it is also the largest bas relief sculpture in the world of three Confederate leaders of the Civil War, President Jefferson Davis and Generals Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson proudly riding on their favorite steeds "Blackjack," "Traveller," and "Old Sorrel,". This carving measures 3 acres (12,000 m2), about the size of three football fields. The carving dimensions of the three men are 400 feet (120 m) above the ground, 90 by 190 feet (58 m), and are recessed 42 feet (13 m) into the mountain.
The carving sprung from the idea in 1912 from Mrs. C. Helen Plane, member of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. In 1916 Gutzon Borglum was commissioned to do the carving, but was reassigned in 1923 to finish Mount Rushmore. Augustus Lukeman continued until 1928 and sadly it stood unfinished for over thirty years. In 1958 the mountain was purchased by the state from the Venable family and in 1964 Walker Hancock assigned started carving, but once again it was passed on to another, Roy Faulkner. It finally was finished on March 3, 1972.
This wonderful monument was visited by my wonderful hubby. When he goes on travel for his work, he has been taking pictures for me because he likes being part of vt too. This is the first page I have done including his travels.

Cherokee Trail
Or you just want to hike the local area, a good choice is the Cherokee Trail, which is a 5-mile (8.0 km) National Recreation Trail, this trail loops around the mountain base, with a mile section going up and over the west side of the mountain and eventually crosses The Walk Up Trail. It mostly passes through the oak-hickory forest, but beautiful views of the lakes, streams, animals, and local fauna await you such as the Stone Mountain Yellow Daisy or also known as the Confederate Daisy. They are usually tucked in the cropping of the mountain. Yet, there are many wonderful species of birds in this area such as the Hoot Owl, Red-tailed Hawk, Wood Ducks, Mallard, Great Blue Herons, various egrets, and peregrine falcon. So are many wonderful species of mammals that inhabit the mountain such as the red fox, bobcat, grey squirrel, rabbits and deer. So be sure to keep your space and have that camera ready

Walk Up Trail
If you don't like to hike or have some disabilities, please utilize the Skylift.
The summit of the mountain can be reached by The Walk Up Trail located by the Confederate Hall and West gate entrance. This is a 1-mile (1.6 km) trail to the top of Stone Mountain ascending 786 ft (240 m) in elevation to a height of 1,686 ft (514 m) Beautiful views abound and with wonderful cool breezes reward you at the top. Please note, this trail is steep and can be very slippery due to the stone when it gets wet. Please use caution when hiking. Dogs are not allowed.

Summit Skyride
My hubby said this was a wonderful experience to ride to The Summit Skyride, which consist of a high-speed Swiss cable car that transports its guest 825 feet from the ground to the top of the mountain. What is really neat about the ride is you get the bird's eye view of the Confederate Memorial Carving. There is a fantastic view of the Atlanta skyline, the Appalachian Mountains and more.

Confederate Hall and Museum
The Confederate Hall and Museum is a stately white columned structure which affords a commanding view across the Memorial Lawn to Stone Mountain and the Confederate Memorial Carving. Inside you will find a museum which highlights the carving and the engineering feat that created it.
The focus of the museum is the fascinating geology and ecology of Stone Mountain. Visitors can explore the gallery, experiencing everything from interactive science exhibits to the life-size cave with a video about the origin of the mountain. There is a theater in the hall where we enjoyed viewing the 25-minute educational documentary "The Battle for Georgia – a History of the Civil War in Georgia,"

The Harvey Water Clock
The Harvey Water Clock. is a unique contraption that I could watch and study transfixed in amazement. A fly ball governor regulates the amount of water which turns a water wheel, which in turn operates the gears to register the hour, day, month and year.
The Harvey Water Clock was patented in 1798. This is first one of its kind in Georgia. I have seen other Harvey Water Clocks in Branson, Missouri and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

The Confederate Memorial Carving
It's difficult to appreciate the size of the Confederate Memorial Carving from a photograph. The three men on horseback look almost small against the massive side of Stone Mountain. This magnificent memorial consists of three acres of chiseled granite making it the largest high relief sculpture in the world. For shear size it even surpasses the better known and more "politically correct" four heads on South Dakota's Mt. Rushmore.
In front is Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, 1861-1865. The central and most prominent figure is that of General Robert E. Lee, and behind him is his right hand man, General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson.
The carving, first envisioned in 1912, was not begun until 1923 and was finally completed in 1972. Three sculptors worked on the creation, the first being Gutzon Borglum, who later carved the Mt. Rushmore Memorial in South Dakota. Augustus Lukeman, the second sculptor, did the bulk of the work of carving the three central figures of the Confederacy on horseback. Lack of funding and other problems caused work of the sculpture to remain idle for 36 years. Then in 1958 the state of Georgia purchased the mountain and the surrounding land. Walker Kirkland Hancock of Gloucester, Massachusetts was chosen to complete the carving and work resumed in 1964. A new technique utilizing thermo-jet torches was used to carve away the granite. Chief carver Roy Faulkner did much of the fine carving, completing the work of art with the detail of a fine painting.
Dedication ceremonies for the Confederate Memorial Carving were held on May 9, 1970. Finishing touches to the masterpiece were completed in 1972.

The carving
The huge carving of the "heroes" (to the people of Georgia) of the Confederacy is located on the face of Stone Mountain. This is the largest carving of this kind in the world, and it is even larger than Mount Rushmore. I think Georgia was trying to make a statement here about who should have won the war.
The carving depicts General Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Confederate President Jefferson Davis. The fourth figure is unnamed.
The idea for the carving came from the daughters of the Confederacy as a way to honro General Robert E. Lee. The carving took almost 50 years, due to the hiring and firing of several architects commissioned to work on the project. The park was declared in 1970 and in 1972, the carving was declared completed. Those of you from the north would probably love to make a joke about southerners here, but since I'm from the south, although, technically, the north, I'll refrain.

Plantation and petting zoo
The petting zoo portion of this is geared towards kids, but the antebellum plantation is pretty impressive. Here you will find several authentic buildings which were actual pre Civil War Georgia homes and which have been restored and brought to this area. The architecture on these 200 year old houses is impressive, although the knowledge of the period of American history that they represent is disturbing at best.

Stone Mountain Aerial tram
The aerial tram takes you to the top of Stone Mountain. There is a walking trail as well and some people use the tram for one way transportation and walk either up or down, although usually the latter.
The tram is a short ride and gives you a great up close and personal view of the Confederate carving. There is a separate fee for riding the tram.

Confederate Hall
Heading west from the main park entrance, you'll come across this impressive building. Confederate Hall has several exhibits and runs a short film about the Civil War in Georgia. Admission into the hall is free, although parking is not.
You can get to Confederate Hall by riding the railroad from Memorial Hall in the main portion of the park, by walking about a mile, or by driving. The same parking ticket you receive at the main entrance allows you to park over here.

The issue here is not really one of immigration for us. As we've stated before we are open to immigration generally. People have a right to move. But if America becomes a place where the rule of law is not respected, if America becomes a place where the president and the executive branch just do what they want in spite of the judiciary, then we have a problem.
In this instance it appears that the administration is really pushing the legal envelope. But this is not new.
Pen and a phone baby!
And if we continue down this road, one where the rule of law, one of the fundamental tenets of American identity is tossed aside, how long until this country no longer becomes a destination for people seeking a better life?

I would LOVE to fill this sweet fuckslot with my hard cock and then let her slip that warm wet fuckslot all over it while I'm sucking, licking and softly chewing on her magnificent pair of breasts! We could go on like that until we enjoyed a mutual climax with my thick warm white cum blending with her sweet fuck juice! Then I would lick and suck our combined juices out of her sweet fuck slot and deliver it with a soft loving kiss to her sweet licking sucking mouth. This babe really makes my cock hard just thinking about fucking her!

She`s gorgeous, but could work on her gag re-flex some. Got the job done, but the bj kinda sucked! Nice video , keep it up Nubile Films.

Girl is lovely, beautiful pussy and lovely tits.Guy has a good cock but agree he looks boring. Agree bj could have been better, cum going into her mouth would have finished this just right.
