Ok are they worth it...
Spotted a S&W PPK .380, stainless. $399 is asking price along with Uncle Sam's tacked on tax.
Also a Colt Cobra, nickle, 3ed gen (last ones) for $500, flat.
So are they worth it? I know about the S&W PPK callbacks but is it a reliable piece?
If it were me, I'd buy the Colt and tell myself that it paid for itself with the money I didn't spend on the PPK. 30 years ago my friends and I tried out the PPK and figured it to be one of the most over rated guns of the day. That is not just the S&W issue, but design wise. Accuracy was mediocre, hammer and slide bite were too easy to arrange, etc. today there are better .380s and other choices in the same genre.
The Colt is a better gun.
Mine has been perfect, easily worth $400. http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/10/ppkxm5.jpg
I agree with all of your points.
I have a nickel-plated Cobra and it is a very nice revolver. If I could replace it easily, I would carry it in my coat pocket, instead of an S&W J frame.
I would pass on the PPK.
The S&W PPK that I had, was 100% reliable and, very accurate. But, I'd probably buy the Colt.
Deaf is a Colt agent kinda guy....I can't see you getting a PPK.:supergrin:
I'd buy both.
I carried a S&W PPK for years. 100% reliable.
The older Interarms PPK/S were jamb-o-matics (at least the 2 I had were).
However, I have reverted back to my days in the 70s and 80s, and now carry a revolver.
ence my answer for both.
My S&W PPK has been 100% reliable, but nowadays I'd only buy a German model built by Walther.
My S&W PPKs has been reliable.
Have a S&W PPK/S .380, only have about 300 rounds through it or so. Been reliable for the time I have shot it...
I'd say yes to the Cobra and if you don't want it, PM me the shop's contact info.
I wouldn't even consider the PPK. I've had too many bad experiences with the Interarms guns. The short butt Cobra can be fitted with Agent stocks making it as much a pocket gun as a J Frame Smith.
Give the Cobra a thorough look for frame cracks. I traded off a really nice nickel Cobra with the shrouded barrel a couple years ago. Big mistake. $500 is about $100 less than the going rate assuming it's a nice gun. There's a little confusion about the number of gens. in my mind. I'm thinking a 3rd gen Cobra would be a short butt with shrouded barrel while a comparable DS would be a gen 4? Some say that DS's actually have 5 gens, with a minor change around 1950.
I liked the PPK/S before it was made by Smith and Wesson. That being said, it lost the appeals to me when I finally got a Seecamp in 380. But that's just me. There is a big following for this classic gun for sure. So I would get the Colt Cobra if the choices were presented to me.
Ok game plan.
The Cobra seller will meet with me soon. I'll inspect it very carefully! No flaking nickle, tight, locks on all chambers, no scratches. Yea then I'd spring for it.
I have the S&W PPK callback list and if it's one of those I'd pass. If on second look it looks good (it DOES have scratches) then I'll offer less and see if they bite. I've owned several PPKs and PPs and yes they bit the hand that fed them. But the S&W has a good long tang and it looks like it won't bite me.
I do have the cash so I can maybe get a good deal done by this weekend.
Now I have a 2nd gen Dick, factory nickle, and it sleeps in the safe. And I also bet the Cobra is NOT TO BE SHOT WITH +P! So I'll make an investment out of it (hahaha you know what my wife thinks of that, right?)
And the PPK I can take all the scratches out with my combo superfine steel wool and stainless polish. I'm also pretty sure I can't make that DA pull lighter, and that is why the 'James Bond' shtick has always been stupid to me.
Find out in a few days guys.
Deaf, you do what you want but I'm a dyed in the wool James Bond fan. A Walther,yes but that S&W doesn't cut it IMHO. Between the two I'd buy the Cobra. YMMV. tom.:cool:
Buy the Colt.
If it's in good shape it's the only one that will appreciate in price if properly cared for.
PPKs are vastly overated IMO unless you have really small hands. We bought my wife one and initially it was great. That is until the first time the slide got her when she didn't pay close attention to her grip position. With that...out the door it went... :wavey:
I carry a PPK/S and I love it. I only paid $270 for mine and think it was a deal and a half. I have not had a single problem with mine since the day that I brought it home and carry it every day at work.
I've had a few jams with my S&W made Walther, but think it was due to the cheap ammo. (PMC Hardball) No problems with the Hornady loads I use for carry. I don't reload for it (yet...:supergrin:) but not a bad pistol.
However...given the choice...I'd go for the Colt for sure.:supergrin:
It took me three tries to get a properly functioning SmithWalther, but it works well.
If you are interested in the PPK, it is because of the beauty of the weapon, the Bond mystique and that not that many people have one.
Arguably, the Sig P220 is what the PPK should be.
Get the PPK if you want a PPK.
Ok the PPK was one of the first call backs and has the strike on the inside of the tang showing it was repaired.. Will think about it as I tried a Beretta Nano (about same price) and hey, they are good.
The Colt Cobra had some nickle flaking at the grips edge so I passed. It had high serial number and one of the last ones made.

Do you mean Sanshiro Abe?
Do you mean Sanshiro Abe?
To avoid criticism say nothing, do nothing, be nothing.
It's both disappointing and great that PSU basically had the National Champion and who would have finished runner up at 174 this year. I wish Brown well in his Olympic endeavours.
I would not be confident that Brown would have gotten past Perry or Amuch. Both of those guys have outstanding skills and more quality experience.
I'd consider him a toss-up with Blanton, and likely ahead of everyone else (obviously Storley).
This is, of course, almost a total guess since we just didn't get to see much of him.
His match with Fittery was great. If he has any ability to learn from his enviroment he should AA next year.
Where's our hacker friends when we need them?
I'm enthusiastic about Brown, but it's premature to me to rank him yet. We don't have any real basis to compare him with Amu and Perry. He did beat Storley and Henderson, so we know that he's up there with some very good guys. We'll know more next year. But he is showing a lot of potential. And a real nice guy from what I hear too.

Q. What is your favorite town for a night out drinking?
A. Vancouver, B.C. There are a lot of great bars and restaurant-bars within walking distance of each other in Vancouver's densely populated downtown core, and they range from ultra-trendy to divey with a lot of good craft beer pubs in the mix. Many are on the water, and Vancouver is blessed with some of the best scenery in the world. And many of my old drinking buddies are there. I'd know exactly which watering holes to find them in. Top that off with convenient public transit, superb mainstream and ethnic food and the low crime rate, and you have a safe and fascinating place to drink at night.
Q. What is your favorite bar, tap room or wine spot in the world?
A. The Parrot pub, 1-9 Church Lane, St Radigunds, Canterbury, U.K. The quintessential British pub and one of the oldest buildings in that picturesque area – Kent, in my opinion, is the prettiest part of England. It's a fantastic place to chew the fat with students or take in the atmosphere (and the aroma of centuries of spilled brew). It was built on Roman ruins in 1370. Despite its age the place is beautifully maintained, and it has a pleasant courtyard and decent food, which are both rare in English pubs.
Q. Where would you like to go to try the booze?
A. Bruichladdich. It's a legendary Scotch distillery located near the North Atlantic Ocean on the wild, windy Scottish island of Islay. Their product is legendary, supposedly because of the water from a local spring and their extremely Old School methods. I have never tried Bruichladdich single malt, but I hear about it constantly.
Julie Gallego, Fashion Editor
Q. What is your favorite (beat) site you have visited?
A. I'd have to say Florence. First of all it's in Italy, and Italians are born with a sense of style. Everyone (and everything) there is gorgeous and so inspiring. Fashion is about more than trends, and real style requires an appreciation of beauty, as in the beauty of a well made suit or the curve of a shoe or the feel of a soft-as-butter leather coat. No one appreciates beauty better than the Italians. Florence, for me, especially personifies the essence of style and beauty in fashion; it's everywhere you look around the city from the gorgeous display of fruits, vegetables, cheeses and seafood at the Mercado centrale or the way the Duomo gleams at noon or the sunset from the Ponte Vecchio. I could go on and on, but Florence's innate style is why I have gone back time and time again.
Q. What is, in your opinion, the fashion capital of the world?
A. Paris. No question. If the Italians invented style, the French perfected it. And all the major houses are there, although the street style is as awe-inspiring as the couture.
Q. What beat related place would you like to visit but haven't?
A. Tokyo. The Japanese are great appreciators of fashion and style, but there is something unstuffy and young about the street style there that draws not just from traditional sources but a variety of places – art, music, fantasy, movies – to create itself. The baby-doll punk aesthetic of Harajuku has become a worldwide influence of its own, not to mention Tokyo is the home of Comme des Garcons.

I dunno. That sounds like a very good reason to me. Otherwise Fedora would have to maintain a fork, which really isn't a good plan. It isn't the job of a Fedora packager to maintain a fork. If it's really so important to get this fixed, it needs to be fixed across all distros. If there hasn't been a release for three years, the package needs to be orphaned or someone who cares needs to start maintaining a fork that can become the new upstream.
Why would upstream's existing sourceforge svn trunk be considered a new fork?

With all belongings then toss em out to the audience

Earl and his friends steal all the belongings from the house of the party they crashed and then toss it out to the audience at their shows. It's almost as if they were the modern day-Robin Hoods; they were taking from those whom they didn't like and gave their possessions away to those who they did like.

Even when shadowed by the superior Nintendo 3DSXL entertainment system, arriving to stores shortly wherever videogames are sold. My super Mario baseball cap is tipped in the favor of Nintendo, and all of the hard work they have done to achieve such a victory in the handheld space. Outselling competing devices by a significant margin not only in the USA, but worldwide at that. On a very consistent basis. The Nintendo quality expertly timed exclusive software releases, combined with the futuristic tech found within the guts of the Nintendo 3DS entertainment system made this all possible. Not to mention the grand and loyal support by Nintendo, and the Nintendo Elite supporters that drove the device to success. Almost landing the Nintendo 3DS entertainment system past the six million mark in the USA alone. A fine achievement that is worthy of celebration. have a blessed day and happy gaming.

People often say they don't matter when in fact they matter the most. Which handheld is going to get the most support? the 3DS or the Vita? Isn't it obvious? Unless the Vita picks up (and it doesn't have to beat the 3DS, that's a different argument) it will lose support and we the gamer will suffer as a consequence #2.2 Agree(6) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply kevnb + 1021d ago you dont need vgchartz to figure out which system will get support. Vita is going to have a handful of really awesome games despite sales, no matter what. #2.2.1 Agree(3) | Disagree(5) | Report GribbleGrunger + 1021d ago But not the support it deserves. The industry has changed too much. Once upon a time it was the developers responsibility to help increase the install base by making great games for a system. They would gladly take a hit early on because they knew they'd gain later when the franchise was established and the install base was bigger. But now developers seem to think it's all down to the company who make those consoles/handhelds to make their product successful, and then they jump on board and reap the benefits. I'm afraid that the pursuit of immediate profits has supplanted the pursuit for innovation. there are still those devs out there but bigger companies such as EA are ONLY interested in making as much money as possible. We could argue all day about that because clearly they have legitimate reason for that to be a major part of their decision making, but it shouldn't be the ONLY reason. they can make or break a console and they know it. Do they care? Hell no. They just call for price drops from companies that are already losing money to smaller devices that cater for cheaper games that make bigger profits. And what drives these smaller devices? Those same companies that demand price drops. In Britain it's called 'shitting on your own doorstep' #2.2.2 (Edited 1021d ago ) | Agree(4) | Disagree(1) | Report MastaMold + 1021d ago @ GribbleGrunger, Sony has alot of 1st party studios to support the PS Vita but your statement is agreeable with good points things will start to pick up at the end of this year and the start of 2013 for PS Vita no worries from this Vita owner :) #2.2.3 Agree(2) | Disagree(4) | Report Puddlejumper75 + 1020d ago Sony has a lot of studios yes but can they support PSP,PS3,Vita and PS4? Or did Sony already drop support of PSP? Honestly it seems to have been forgotten about completely by Sony and by the Sony supporters. #2.2.4 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report ChunkyLover53 + 1021d ago Slight rebound for the PS3 and the 360, which is good news. The Vita is a bit perplexing, its solid hardware, but the price point is so high right now. I really would like to get one, but I don't have $350-$400 to spend on one and a memory unit that worth a damn and a game or two. Its too much money at this time. If they dropped the price I'd definitely buy one. The real question is, even though Sony has a lot of studios, they are obviously making PS3 and PS4 games, they have all but abandoned Move, how much support can they actually offer Vita right now? It does have a few titles I'd be interested in, but at the price its at right now, those few titles aren't enticing enough. With the slow sales, it might not be long until 3rd party support drops for the device as well. Not saying its all doom and gloom for the Vita, but Sony needs to do something. #3 Agree(6) | Disagree(5) | Report | Reply KingOptimusOrigin111 + 1021d ago OMG are you serious its not the price, its the lack of advertising and third party games. Sony is already put or putting out Soul Sacrifice, Gravity Rush, Uncharted Golden Abyss, LittleBigPlanet, & more. The problem is third party developers keep supporting 3DS and the fanboys like LX-General-Kaos who is praising 3DS like if its his GOD, lack of advertising, and the memory cards are the problem, not the price. I say wait till Gamescom, TGS, & the next PS Vita Heaven Event before jumping to conclusion. #3.1 (Edited 1021d ago ) | Agree(0) | Disagree(9) | Report | Reply ChunkyLover53 + 1021d ago How are you telling me its not the price, when I'm telling you I'd willingly buy one if they dropped the price? Little Big Planet isn't even out yet, so you listed 2 games that are out and one (Soul Sacrifice) that I've never heard of. Those two games, or even four games aren't enough to entice me to buy a Vita at that price point. I own a 3DS, but I didn't buy one until the price dropped, just like I'd buy a Vita if the price dropped and they bundled a memory card bigger than 4 gigs. #3.1.1 Agree(7) | Disagree(3) | Report Dlacy13g + 1021d ago @chunkylover53... clearly you don't understand that he has control of your wallet now. LOL it always amazes me when someone says something is too expensive for them and other people tell that person it is not. we all have different financial situations so what is expensive to one may not be to another but it is still expensive to that persn. #3.1.2 (Edited 1021d ago ) | Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report KingOptimusOrigin111 + 1021d ago @ChunkyLover53 Are you mad? Your not the whole world Chunky. Just beacuse you want a price drop doesn't mean its not going sale with its $249 price tag based off your opinion. How do you know people aren't going to buy it if they start advertising games for it this holiday and bundle it with games and a 8GB memory card with a $249 price tag. Second of all I said put or putting out Soul Sacrifice, Gravity Rush, Uncharted Golden Abyss, LittleBigPlanet, & more. Meaning first party is supporting the handheld through out the year with a touch of third party: 1.Assassin's Creed III: Liberation 2.Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified 3.Escape Plan 4.Gravity Rush 5.Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 6.LittleBigPlanet 7.MLB 12: The Show 8.ModNation Racers: Road Trip 9.Phantasy Star Online 2 10.PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale 11.Ragnarok Odyssey 12.Resistance: Burning Skies 13.Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time 14.Soul Sacrifice 15.Tales of Innocence R 16.Uncharted: Golden Abyss 17.Unit 13 Third of all of course Chunky you don't know Soul Sacrifice but yet your on N4G 24/7 how ironic but yet you spend most of your time complaining about what Sony should do and supporting Nintendo & Microsoft. #3.2 (Edited 1021d ago ) | Agree(4) | Disagree(8) | Report | Reply ChunkyLover53 + 1021d ago Do you honestly believe that Vita sales wouldn't pick up with a price cut? Don't be so daft, yet again you list a group of games for Vita that aren't too impressive or that aren't even available yet. The biggest complaints people have for Vita is lack of games out right now, or the price. If they cut the price I'd be interested, don't know any other way to say it. I've seen advertisements for the Vita and its games, but there aren't enough games that interest me for the current price. #3.2.1 Agree(6) | Disagree(3) | Report Dlacy13g + 1021d ago @kingoptimusO... nor are you the world. Based on the sales of the vita I would say chunkylover53 is closer to the opinion of the world than you are . edit : and with that mountain of games you listed how is it the vita is still struggling? could it be price because according to your list it's not a lack of games ? #3.2.2 (Edited 1021d ago ) | Agree(7) | Disagree(0) | Report ronin4life + 1021d ago I don't think Hatsune Miku nor Tales of innocence R have even been confirmed for US at all. Many of those games are ports or remakes. (not that this point is Sony or Vita Exclusive.... although with their business plan it will be more recurrent) I doubt Soul Sacrifice will release thus year for some reason... and I'm not to sure about PSO2 either. And Activision have yet to talk about CoD at all. #3.2.3 (Edited 1021d ago ) | Agree(2) | Disagree(0) | Report Puddlejumper75 + 1020d ago Dlacy13g, Bbls for the awesome point. You'll learn though that some Sony supporters will say or do anything to justify their beliefs even if they contradict themselves in the process. @King Project Diva? Are you seriously naming off a gamed called Diva as a reason for a real gamer to own a VIta? I see a lot of the same games I could get on PS3 for cheaper and since when did sports games become AAA must own exclusives that everyone should rush out to buy. That'd be like someone listing Madden or NBA was reason to own any other console out there. Just because its by Sony doesnt mean its worth owning when not everyone likes sports games. Seems someones a bit jelly and taking things personally. You mad Bro? or just butthurt #3.2.4 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report oldfriend86 + 1021d ago There are a few other factors, but 'price' is a major problem for me too. $350-$400 sounds about right to 'commit' to the PS Vita. I do want it, it's just not right now. With the 3DS being $170, the memory card not being an issue, and hashing out ports left and right but ones I love; made it a much easier choice. I'm sure the Vita will do fine around the holiday season. Hope I can find a good bundle deal around black friday. And Sony does suck at advertising. That's the one thing I'll give props to Microsoft for is they know how to promote a product. #3.3 Agree(0) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply IQUITN4G + 1021d ago Vita sales are a worry #4 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply DivineAssault + 1021d ago Nah man.. Vita is still an infant & has yet to release the games that make it stand apart from other portable devices.. Now if nx yr by this time theres no stable increase, start to worry lol.. When it gets its 3rd party smash hit (which i think is soul sacrifice) things will improve.. Who else besides sony fans would want a vita right now when all the games are mostly ports? I have one & enjoy it but there is a serious lack of unique software right now.. #4.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(5) | Report | Reply feeter + 1021d ago How is the Vita still an infant... its been out six months(in the US)longer in Japan and its first holiday season is coming up and Sony as a whole is losing money(dont think problems with other divisions dont affect the others)... lack of 3rd party support and slow sales (12% of the handheld market) are a good sign... Sony has to do more and they have been doing very little... it seems as if they are happy with 12% but with losses at Sony I dont think they are... and other publishers will not take many risks on a system that has such a small market share... Yes Sony can put out many games for the Vita but they have to try to get atleast 30% of the market for them to do good... and as of now that looks like a bit too much... the Vita has loads of potential but Sony need to back it up #4.2 Agree(4) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Add comment You need to be registered to add comments.

As old as the threat of danger itself, vulnerability management (VM) has been the responsibility of leaders in every human organization, from tribes and fiefdoms right up through modern multinationals. Today, the focus of vulnerability management is still on infrastructure, but as knowledge is power and the lifeblood of any organization is its capacity for quick system-wide response, current emphasis needs to be placed on maintaining the integrity of IT applications, so critical to the real and the virtual infrastructure and productivity of any community or business entity.
Written by international security consultant Park Foreman, Vulnerability Management demonstrates a proactive approach. Illustrated with examples drawn from more than two decades of multinational experience, Foreman demonstrates how much easier it is to manage potential weaknesses, than to clean up after a violation. Covering the diverse realms that chief officers need to know and the specifics applicable to singular areas of departmental responsibility, he provides both the strategic vision and action steps needed to prevent the exploitation of IT security gaps, especially those that are inherent in a larger organization. Providing a fundamental understanding of technology risks from an interloper's perspective, this efficiently organized work:

Email From a White Supremacist
Museum shooter wrote to ADL
The Anti-Defamation League uncovered a five-year-old email from James W. von Brunn, the 88-year-old gunman who shot and killed a security guard and wounded two others today at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. Tablet contributor Jeffrey Goldberg posted the email on his Atlantic blog. Here's the text:
—– Original Message —–
From: James Von Brunn
Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 4:08 AM
Subject: From a Friend in Germany
Time to FLUSH all "Holocaust" Memorials.
This morning I visited Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp near Berlin. Its about my 12th visit. Why do I keep returning there? Because I learn something new every time. The first thing I noticed this visit was that the whole camp is a building site, with workmen swarming all over the camp area. The country's economy is going South at full speed but they still seem to have millions to invest in renovating the concentration camps.
The next obvious thing I noticed was, the new design plays down the very significant role of the suffering endured after the war by the thousands of Germans who were imprisoned and murdered by the Soviet occupiers, (who are now known as 'Liberators' because they liberated millions of Germans from most of which they owned or loved ). The German victims are mentioned on signs and documents but in such a way that the uninitiated are led to believe that these people too were victims of Nazi terror and not Soviet victims after the war had ended.
Because of the 'renovation work' being done much of the camp was cordoned off today, but other parts I had previously not been able to get close to, were open. The last time I was in the camp I asked the Museum curator where exactly the camp brothel was situated, at first she pretended that there never was such a building in the camp, but I pressured her into admitting it was 'approx' around the Hospital barracks 'somewhere'.
Today I could get up close to the Hospital barracks, so I started looking into all the windows hoping to discover something new…one hinderance is, many of the windows are actually glazed with milchglas, (milk glass)
However a museum staff member noticed my staring through all the windows, and asked me what I was looking for ? I told her I was looking for the Brothel, she looked at me in surprise and said 'I don't know where the Brothel was, but it might have been in the Underground rooms below us' THIS was news for me, the Area below the two Hospital Barracks had underground rooms?
If you look at this area on the photo below there is no clue that anything like underground rooms exist between the two rows of hospital barracks.
There are no air vents or similar to give clues, and nothing about underground facilities is mentioned in the camp tour broschures.
I started to quiz this lady as to what else was in these underground rooms, she shrugged her shoulders and said ' Mitunter, eine Kegelbahn' (Amongst other things they had a bowling alley) I questioned her whether I had heard her correctly, she said "Ja, aber ich muss weiter" "Yes but I have to go now" , and she went inside the barracks. Hey! A BOWLING ALLEY ??…. I had learnt something new.
Is there anyone receiving this letter that can verify what this woman told me?
Conversation Two:
While I was walking on from this last conversation I was approached by a middle aged couple who spoke no German, and English only with a strong accent I didn't recognise.
He approached me and started asking me questions about where were the 'gas chambers' ? I told him there were no gas chambers in Sachsenhausen, he became agitated and he actually frothed at the mouth, his voice went up an octave, saying I should not lie , his Grandparents had been in Auschwitz and they had told him that gassings occurred in all camps (I then realised I had just met Mr and Mrs Victimnumber from Israel)
Mr and Mrs Victimnumber told me they had just come from Dachau and he had seen the 'gas-chambers there, where the sign says in 5 languages ……..QUOTE: 'never used as a Gas chamber'
But, he told me seriously 'THEY ALL LIE' he had been in the Dachau gas chambers and SEEN the shower nozzles in the roof (shower heads are there, the whole place was dandied up by US forces after the war).
There is a law in Germany forbidding people telling the facts, so I chose to shut-up and ask him to tell me what HE thought it was all about. According to him, this is how the Nazis did it, …..
'The Nazis had a gas….it was a solid gas' Solid Gas???? I asked. 'Yes it was like a soapy substance and dey trowd it true roof holes down true the shower heads and the peoples are dying witin a few seconds.
OH I said, is that right ? Yes! he asked me angrily, " VY do you tink dey had shower heads in these rooms ?" "Ah! To take showers with", I answered.
VY VOOD ZEY VANT to shower ? he foamed at me….
I looked at him and said "Don't they have showers in Israel?"
End of conversation two.
I almost expected to get back to the Camp Entrance and find the 'thought-police' waiting for me. Nope it was OK.
What I did notice however was the large library of Holocaust-anti-German-hatenazi- Literature on sale in the Entrance Hall. One could get the feeling that every survivor has written at least three books.
The propaganda is enormous, on the photo only one half of the books being offered can be seen.
are NOT keeping up with this flood.

It depends on how many Torpedoes you have fitted. 3 Photons will out damage 3 Quantums, but 4 Quantums will outdamge 4 Photons. If you add in Projectile Duty officers then you end up with 3 Quantums out damaging 3 Photons. Even with Duty officers 2 Photons out damage 2 Quantums.For mines I find if you use 1 mine Photons are best, if you use two mines photons are a waste and as Quantums will do far more damage.
Above is ignoring High Yield or Torpedo Spread and is just for leaveing torps on auto fire.

Wii U
Nintendo needs to learn from Sony when it comes to offering old content.
- Back To:

I think we can all agree that Nintendo's handling of the VIrtual console is terrible across all of their consoles that support it. We're lucky if we even get 60 VC games a year not counting VC launches on the Wii/WiiU/3ds.
Meanwhile, Sony offers a bunch of Ps1 and psp games for purchase. They sell for prices similar to what Nintendo sells their VC games for. Thanks to cross buy, you only need to buy a game once before you can play it on both your Vita and ps3. And while there are some flaws (being completely unable to buy some games on Vita if you don't own a ps3. Good games missing from ps1 classics), I have to admit that Sony knows how to handle their old games very well.
Compare this to what Nintendo is doing with the VC and it's clear that they could learn a thing or two. Even if they don't like paying attention to what other companies are doing.
By the way, if anyone wants to make an extremely predictable post to make fun of the topic title, then at least make it funny.

The PSN Store and the VC launched in 2006 with the Wii launching around the same time period. Despite launching at the same time period, you can still compare the Ps1 classics to the Wii VC catalog and still see the difference. If the Wii VC had so many issues, then I think it's fear to believe that the WiiU VC will as well.

If there is ONE company nintendo should not learn from, it would be sony.
Nintendo should price their games a little lower and they should release at a higher frequency, I agree. But Sony hardly releases as much as you say they do. The Wii VC has a much higher number of games available than Sony does with their PS1 and PS2 Classics.

Alright, I have to admit that this pretty stupid. Especially for FF III.

I've got no serious qualms about the release itinerary. It would be foolish to splash a ton of games out on day one and just have them sit there. This way, Nintendo can build hype and spread word-of-mouth around individual releases. My only problem with Virtual Console is the lack of cross buy. I hate that my Wii, Wii U and 3DS VC games are all separate things. It should be 'buy once, play everywhere', perhaps with optional cloud saves to continue a game on the road, from my 3DS. Instead, Nintendo tries to resell the same games on each new console. This annoys me greatly. I'd also like a universal account system, but if Nintendo didn't have that in November 2012 with the launch of the Wii U, I kinda doubt they ever will.

Up Next: Shin Megami Tensei IV (3DS), Fire Emblem: Awakening (3DS)
Lack of cross-buy is a big issue for Nintendo. But another is there cost.
$5 for a NES Game? Are you kidding me?

5 bucks for an NES game isn't really the issue. $5 for every NES game is the real problem here. Earthbound isn't the first time they've shown that they were fine with upping the price on high profile titles. Why make $5 the baseline for even the most obscure and shallow games?

All OK8/27/2010
I finally got my rebate. So, no problems with either of the two same drives. I let Win 7 do all the backups automatically.
Very E-Z Drive8/20/2010
This drive is a fast and easy way to backup an internal hard drive; especially with Win 7. It came with Shadow 4 software, which I did not use. It formats way too much of the drive and even though there is a formatting screen, it doesn't care. So, I simply let Win 7 do the backup it automatically is programmed for and use this drive as the backup unit. This is also the 2nd of the same drive I own. The price was right and the item works as advertised perfectly. It has been over 2 months and I have also not received the rebate.

The drive is good and works well. It has been over 3 months and I have yet to hear anything about the rebate. (I wrote an earlier review, but it has dissapeared)2 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
I only use this to backup all my movies. Plan on purchasing another for standard digital storage. I dig the bright blue led. I use it as a night light whenever I get up in the middle of the night. It's the brightest, bluest light I have every seen. Pre-formatted in NTFS.

Depression-Era Post Office Murals Imperiled
13 mural by Ben Shahn and his wife, Bernada Bryson, may meet their end
While the US Postal Service usually has as much to do with art as far as the next stamp design is concerned, a pending plan to sell the Bronx Post Office has artists and preservationists worried about the uncertain future of thirteen murals painted by Ben Shahn and his wife, Bernada Bryson.
The frescos, which are painted directly onto the walls of the building's interior a la Michelangelo and the Sistine Chapel, depict the occupations of American workers and have come to exemplify life during the Great Depression. But the Postal Service, which continues to reel from financial woes, has proposed selling the colossal building and relocating.
"In the face of unsustainable deficits, the Postal Service must seek ways to cut costs and reduce the size of its infrastructure," read duplicates of an announcement posted alongside certain murals. "We believe we have an opportunity in the Bronx to sell the existing Postal Service at 558 Grand Concourse Avenue and right size our retail operation into smaller leased space."
Although the historic post office building, which was completed in 1939, is protected as a New York City landmark, the murals within the building have no landmark designation and the new tenant would become the proprietor of the works with the building's sale. According to the New York Landmarks Conservancy, such a move would endanger the floor-to-ceiling murals if proper protections are not in place.
The property has yet to be sold, but critics like Jonathan Shahn, the late artist's son, have stepped in to urge the New York Landmarks Commission to officially preserve the murals for their artistic value and their wider significance as New Deal government-sponsored art projects. The post office scenes of Southern and Midwestern American life by Shahn, a Jewish artist from Williamsburg who studied alongside Diego Rivera, were commissioned by the Treasury Section of Painting and Sculpture and became a prominent example of federal support for the arts during the era.
Congressman José Serrano has penned a letter to the Postmaster General about the proposed sale.

Fellow secularists and scientists in Reno NV
By GEOFFREY BROOKS
Updated: Sun, 03 Jun 2012 18:22:57 UTC
I am looking to meet secularists/atheists in Reno NV to discuss how to support science, education and debunk mysticism and weird beliefs.
I like Sean's 10 point approach and would like to start outreach to all in the Reno NV area.
I believe that capturing the moral high ground is key, for scientific education, for women's rights, and a world where all humans have equality of opportunity.

Happy New Year! The holidays around ARG were buzzing with excitement as there were several busy elves wrapping up our Graceful Giving Project. 2014 was a year to remember for Graceful Giving as we served 123 families, which equals over 250 individuals! We had more people adopt families than in years past. The ARG office was overflowing with gifts!
The ARG staff cannot thank you, our donors, enough for your generosity. Because of you, our clients and their families' holidays were made much brighter. We are grateful for all of the hard work from the many volunteers we had wrapping presents until their fingers hurt and those who got a good workout in making the food baskets. Without each and every one of you who supports ARG, Graceful Giving would not be possible. Thank you again from all of us at ARG!
Graceful Giving...because no one should feel alone at the holidays
HIV/AIDS is more than a disease of the body. It brings feelings of isolation and hopelessness. It causes financial hardship and immense stress. The holidays often plunge our clients and families deep into despair. You can drive away despair with ARG's Graceful Giving. ARG's Graceful Giving provides personalized gift baskets to those living with or affected by HIV/AIDS. In addition, their household receives a food basket. Best of all, they feel hopeful and optimistic again because someone cares. You can be that someone!
You can give a Graceful Giving Basket for only $25. Thanks to other generous donors of products and services, ARG can multiply your gift into a basket worth over $135. Send your check today, with "Graceful Giving" in the memo or make a donation by clicking on the Donate button above. If you prefer, you can shop for gifts and wrap them yourself. Contact ARG to "adopt" a family or group of individuals. We will give you a wish list so you know what is most needed. The closing date for adoptions is December 5, 2014.
22nd Annual Southwestern Indiana AIDS Walk
The AIDS Resource Group hosted the 22nd Annual Southwestern Indiana AIDS Walk on September 13, 2014 at the Old Courthouse in downtown Evansville. The community joined us in support of those who are still battling HIV/AIDS and to honor those we have lost to the disease. The event featured a comprehensive health fair, NAMES Quilt panels, food by Dry Bone BBQ, games, a bounce house, raffle, silent auction and more. The top three fundraising individuals were John Streetman, Randy Lewis, and Eddie Deutsch. The top three teams were John-John's Team, Team ARG, and Wendy Turner-Frey's Team. With the help of our supporters, ARG raised almost $15,000 this year to help supplement Care Coordination, Risk Counseling, HIV Testing and Counseling, Supportive Care, and Educational programs that impact over 3,000 individuals annually in Southern Indiana. Thank you for your unwavering support!

The United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued an order on January 25, 2013, which struck, as unconstitutional, President Obama's recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB"). Noel Canning v. NLRB (Case No. 12-1115) Typically, recess appointments to the NLRB, pursuant to the Recess Appointments Clause of the Constitution, are made during Senate recess. In its Opinion, the D.C. Circuit Court held that because the appointments at issue were not made during the intersession recess (the President made his three appointments to the Board on January 4, 2012, after Congress began a new session on January 3 and while that new session continued), these appointments were invalid from their inception. Therefore, because the Board lacked a quorum of three members when it issued its decision in Noel Canning, the D.C. Circuit Court vacated the holding.
In response, Chairman Mark Gaston Pearce issued the following statement: "The Board respectfully disagrees with today's decision and believes that the President's position in the matter will ultimately be upheld. It should be noted that this order applies to only one specific case, Noel Canning, and that similar questions have been raised in more than a dozen cases pending in other courts of appeals. In the meantime, the Board has important work to do. The parties who come to us seek and expect careful consideration and resolution of their cases, and for that reason, we will continue to perform our statutory duties and issue decisions."
Regardless, this is a major development that could invalidate all NLRB decisions during the time in which President Obama's appointees were on the NLRB. Below are summaries of the major decisions in 2012 that may be impacted by this ruling:

The confrontations between police and demonstrators at the Stonewall Inn in New York City the weekend of June 27-29, 1969 mark the beginning of the modern glbtq movement for equal rights.
Formed soon after the Stonewall Riots of 1969, the short-lived but influential Gay Liberation Front brought a new militancy to the movement that became known as gay liberation.
The sexual revolution of post-World War II America changed sexual and gender roles profoundly.
"Leather" is a blanket term for a large array of sexual preferences, identities, relationship structures, and social organizations loosely tied together by the thread of what is conventionally understood as sadomasochistic sex.
Although best known for her crusade for women's suffrage, Susan B. Anthony spoke out on a range of feminist issues.
With reports from hundreds of sub-Saharan African locales of male-male sexual relations and from about fifty of female-female sexual relations, it is clear that same-sex sexual relations existed in traditional African societies, though varying in forms and in the degree of public acceptance
Androgyny, a psychological blending of gender traits, has long been embraced by strong women, soft men, members of queer communities, and others who do not easily fit into traditionally defined gender categories.
A cultural crossroads between Asia and Europe, Russia has a long, rich, and often violent heritage of varied influences and stark confrontations in regard to its patterns of same-sex love.

Prime Minister Nehru declared open the Rs.17-crore Maithon Dam at the confluence of the rivers Barakar and Damodar before a mammoth gathering, which included thousands of Santhal tribals, on September 27. He said the contiguous areas of West Bengal, Bihar and Orissa were fast becoming the 'Ruhr' of India. As Mr. Nehru switched on the electric gear, the 12 radial gates of the huge dam opened up to let water flow from a height of 162 feet. Congratulating the engineers and others who were engaged in the work, Mr. Nehru suggested that a memorial should be erected to those who had lost their lives during the early stages of its construction. He said the Maithon Dam and other DVC projects would benefit not only the people of West Bengal and Bihar but the whole of India. As a matter of fact, the benefits of the various development projects completed so far and under way would be enjoyed by generations of Indians even 200 years hence. The DVC projects were being undertaken with three ends in view: flood control, irrigation and power generation. Dedicating the dam to the people of India, Mr. Nehru said the dam was an example of international co-operation for American, German and French engineers had helped to complete the project.

Views of Major Hurricane Irene From Space

Aboard the International Space Station, an Expedition 28 crew member captured views of intensifying Hurricane Irene from an altitude of 225 miles at 3:33 p.m. EDT on Aug. 22, 2011, as the tropical system passed to the north of Hispaniola. The National Hurricane Center is forecasting a track that would take Irene near to or east of the Florida peninsula as a major hurricane on Friday with a possible landfall along the southeastern United States on Saturday. credit: NASA

While the rest of the National League East has been busy creating offseason news, the Atlanta Braves have sat by idly to the dismay of some fans.
Aside from dumping Derek Lowe and a chunk of his salary, the biggest moves for the Braves have been exercising Eric Hinske's option and non-tendering Peter Moylan. Even though it didn't require a move, deciding that Tyler Pastornicky was ready to start at shortstop has probably been the second biggest decision of the off-season.
There have been a couple other minor events involving declining options and non-tendering players to go along with a few minor league deals, but for the most part the Braves have been completely quiet despite having two notable names on the trading block.
Rumors surrounding Martin Prado and Jair Jurrjens have been flying since the beginning of the offseason, with numerous reports of the Braves trying to land Seth Smith or Adam Jones that were exaggerated.
The Phillies have gone out and added Jonathan Papelbon and re-signed Jimmy Rollins. The Marlins went on a spending spree to get Heath Bell, Jose Reyes and Mark Buehrle. The Nationals added Gio Gonzalez and are one of the leading candidates to snag Prince Fielder. Even the Mets have made more acquisitions than the Braves, arms to solidify their bullpen.
All the while, the Braves have remained quiet, and that's exactly what they should have done. While it's possible for the Braves to improve the team via trade, it's not really necessary. Built the way they are, the team has a good shot of making the postseason despite the other workings in the division.
The loss of Derek Lowe was addition by subtraction and with Tommy Hanson's status uncertain it's not bad to have an excess of pitching.
Martin Prado and Jair Jurrjens are far from the best players at their position, but it would have been silly for the Braves to trade them if they weren't getting better.
While the Braves may have wanted to move one or both of these players to find a different left fielder they would have been silly to do so at in the rumors being mentioned. The Orioles are asking way too much for Adam Jones, who has a lower career wOBA than Prado, and Seth Smith has drastic home/road splits (Coors Field effect) and even more drastic platoon splits.
With the possibility of an additional playoff spot, Frank Wren has been smart to hold onto Prado and Jurrjens. The Braves had a playoff caliber team last year and losing Derek Lowe made them better. Factor in a full year of Michael Bourn and likely improvements from Prado and Jason Heyward and the Braves are positioned just as well this year even without a flashy offseason.

First baseman Brad Snyder was designated for assignment Tuesday. Pena was listed batting sixth and playing first base for a series opener at home against Detroit.
Pena made his major league debut for the Rangers in 2001, and he was traded to Oakland the following winter. The 36-year-old Pena has played for eight teams in his career.
Released by the Los Angeles Angels during spring training, Pena signed a minor league deal with Texas last week.
The team said first baseman Mitch Moreland has returned home to Mississippi after ligament reconstructive surgery and bone realignment in his left ankle Monday.

Giving the middle finger is an "ancient gesture of insult," but it shouldn't get you arrested, according to the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals. The court recently reinstated a civil rights lawsuit filed by a New York man who was arrested for disorderly conduct after using his middle finger to express his displeasure to a police officer conducting a speed trap.
At the time of the incident, John Swartz was a passenger in a vehicle driven by his now wife, Judy Mayton-Swartz. Although she did not violate any traffic laws, the police officer followed the couple to their destination and proceeded to conduct a traffic stop. The officer called back up to the scene, but ultimately told the Swartz and his wife that they were free to go. Although the two sides offered varying descriptions of what happened next, Swartz claims that he sought to approach the officer to explain his actions, stating, "I feel like an ass." However, another officer stepped in between them and stated: "That does it, you're under arrest." The couple later filed a lawsuit against the officers, alleging that their First and Fourth Amendment rights were violated.
The district court dismissed the suit, accepting the arresting officer's justification for the traffic stop. It held that the stop was legal because Swartz's "odd and aggressive behavior directed at a police officer created a reasonable suspicion that Swartz was either engaged in or about to be engaged in criminal activity, such as violence against the driver of the vehicle."

Panera Surpasses Zacks Estimate - Analyst Blog
Panera Bread Co. ( PNRA ) recently posted fourth quarter 2011 adjusted earnings of $1.42 per share, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny. Reported earnings of $1.31 also outpaced the year-ago level of $1.21 per share. In full-fiscal 2011, reported earnings were $4.55 per share versus $3.62 in 2010. The better-than-expected results were driven by solid top-line growth.
Inside the Headline Numbers
The restaurant chain reported total revenue of $495.8 million in the fourth quarter, up 16% year over year. In full-fiscal 2011, revenue increased 18% to $1,822.0 million.
System-wide comparable net bakery-cafe sales in the quarter expanded 4.4%. The company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 5.9%, driven by higher transaction growth of 0.2% and average check growth of 5.7%. Franchise-operated comparable net bakery-cafe sales also grew 3.2%.
The company's operating margin declined 160 basis points due to higher cost of food and paper products.
Store Update
During the quarter, Panera opened 24 new company-owned bakery-cafes and 16 franchised bakery-cafes. The company currently operates 1541 bakery cafes, of which 740 are company owned and the rest franchised.
For 2012, the company has increased its unit development target to 115-120 units from the previous projection of 110 to 115 units. Prior to that, Panera increased its store guidance from 100 to 110 units.
For full-year 2012, Panera raised its earnings per share guidance from $5.38-$5.48 to $5.50-$5.55, reflecting a year-over-year earnings growth of 18-19%. The full-year guidance represents company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales growth in the range of 4.5% to 5.5%, up from the previous forecast of 4.0% to 5.0%.
Panera expects first quarter 2012 earnings in the range of $1.33 to $1.35 per share and company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales growth of 7.0% to 7.5%.
Our Take
Following Panera's earnings beat and increased guidance for full-year, estimates for the coming quarters are expected to rise in the coming days. We remain optimistic on the stock based on the company's dominant position in the bakery-cafe business and more stable traffic than most of its restaurant peers. However, stiff competition and food cost inflation are expected to remain headwinds for the company.
Panera, which competes with Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. ( CMG ), currently retains a Zacks #2 Rank, which translates into a short-term 'Buy' rating. We are maintaining our long-term "Neutral" recommendation on the stock.
