Ruger LCR downtown05-15-2012, 16:51I am thinking of selling my S&W J-Frame 637 and getting a Ruger LCR. What are the pros and cons of this? All advice welcome, thanks. ZekerMan05-15-2012, 17:01All I can add is that I really like my Ruger LCR, fantastic smooth trigger and accurate. Not my everyday EDC but it has its place depending on how I have to dress. I did add a front night sight. Jason D05-15-2012, 18:05The cons would be selling a S&W for a Ruger The Pirate05-15-2012, 18:56The cons would be selling a S&W for a Ruger Haha, I would have said that a year ago. Now I like my KLCR better than my 442. The only real reason is it has a better trigger and I can carry .357 if I want. If you want something different, try it. I bet you'll like it a lot. Outdoor Hub mobile, the outdoor information engine GoBigOrange05-15-2012, 19:03LCR for the win. collim105-15-2012, 19:56I like Ruger, dont get me wrong I own a few but in this case I think the 442/642 is unbeatable. The LCR is a good offering IMO, but i have a 442 and did not feel the LCR was up to par. The Smith jframes have the set the standard pretty high. GoBigOrange05-15-2012, 20:02I like Ruger, dont get me wrong I own a few but in this case I think the 442/642 is unbeatable. The LCR is a good offering IMO, but i have a 442 and did not feel the LCR was up to par. The Smith jframes have the set the standard pretty high. How so? I have heard numerous people say the trigger on the LCR is far better than the 442. These guys were diehard smith guys too. Just curious how the LCR was not up to par? not trying to cause a pissing match, I don't have much experience with smith jframes but I'm curious what makes them better. MLittle05-15-2012, 20:14There is no way that you would choose a Smith 642/442 over the Ruger LCR if you shot them side-by-side. I own both........ I want to love my Smith, I really do. It is so traditional and it is all metal (I like metal guns....my edc is a Sig P220 Carry). In good conscience, I could not recommend the Smith over the Ruger. Why? 1) Trigger......Ruger is light years ahead of the Smith 642/442, try them and see. 2) Sights.......the Smith has a gutter and very low front sight. The Ruger has clearly defined stock sights. 3) Recoil.......The Hogue grips on the Ruger reduce felt recoil on the Ruger by 25%(my estimate) from the Smiths. 4) Weight.....The Ruger weighs 13.5 oz, the Smiths 15 oz. The only drawback for the Ruger is that the nice grips do make the stock a little larger than the Smiths and may interfer with draw. Doesn't bother me, but may you.... ithaca_deerslayer05-15-2012, 21:06There is no way that you would choose a Smith 642/442 over the Ruger LCR if you shot them side-by-side. I own both........ I want to love my Smith, I really do. ... I shot them side by side. I didnt notice the LCR being any better than my 642. I didn't like the LCR ergos as much. But I consider them equally good choices. A buyer should look at both and pick the one they like better. ithaca_deerslayer05-15-2012, 21:07I am thinking of selling my S&W J-Frame 637 and getting a Ruger LCR. What are the pros and cons of this? All advice welcome, thanks. The con is you lose the single action. The pro is the double action only is less likely to snag on a draw. Gregg70205-15-2012, 21:37Keep the 637, save up for the LCR. Both are good guns. ScottieG5905-15-2012, 21:45It is hard to get ahead trading in guns that are fully capable to do the job. My old carry J frame is a Smith & Wesson 649 in 38 Special. It was and still is a great revolver. I also have a Ruger LCR in 38 Special +P. It is very light and very easy to conceal. The trigger pull is second to none in double action revolvers. I sometimes carry in an IWB clipon holster and even my elastic waistband shorts stay up. You will find people with all sorts of claims about brands and quality. You should go with what fits your goals and not fall for the trash talkers. The Ruger LCR is a very good choice. I have mine fitted with a front night sight and the Crimson Trace LaserGrip. Out there in fly-over country... Breadman0305-16-2012, 05:28I had a 642 and an LCR. I still have the LCR, but sold the 642 to get a S&W 22A and a bunch of ammo. I wanted a .22 pistol and didn't need two tools for the same purpose. The LCR stayed due to a better trigger and sights. Both are light enough that weight wasn't a factor to me. Bruce M05-16-2012, 05:59If the weight is the issue then the nod goes to the LCR, if the trigger is the issue the nod appears to go the LCR and if size is the issue then keep the 637. ftlupton05-16-2012, 07:18I have both, if I had to I would let the LCR go and keep the j frame. That being said the wifes LCR is all she will shoot anymore and she is deadly with it out to 20yds. I put Pachmyar grips on my Smith and love the feel when shooting. CBennett05-16-2012, 07:26Better trigger pretty much and a weight reduction .. Id do it in a heartbeat. IMO the best CC revolver on the market right now is the LCR. To be honest id look for my best price on the LCR and KEEP the S&W but if you asked me you can have one or the other id take the Ruger. ricklee457005-16-2012, 07:29I prefer the LCR pmwglock1905-16-2012, 07:41My son this weekend bought an LCR instead of the S&W. Liked the feel and trigger a lot better. Orive 805-16-2012, 07:44I have had numerous S&W snubbies over the past 27 years. When I was working on duty - a S&W snubby was my BUG. A couple of years ago I traded my S&W 342ti .38 sp. for a Ruger LCR .38. Reason - the trigger. Best trigger on any snub that I have ever shot. (And like I posted, I have had lots of different S&W snubs, as well as several different Colt snubs). Just ordered the XS tritium express front sight for my LCR and a new Garrett Industries "Silent Thunder" IWB holster for it also. What can I say - wife got a new car, bathroom and laptop so I had to get something for myself :supergrin: ray glock05-16-2012, 15:58I ordered a ruger LCR in 357 and it was way out of spec from the factory. The trigger would not return either. I was very disappointed. I sent it back to Ruger and they rebuilt it by replacing various parts. For some reason they also replaced the front sight. When I took it to the range I was so impressed with the little revolver. It was like custom tuned and shot point of aim at 7 yards. It is a great little EDC. The thing I like the most about it is that I can point shoot it (up to 7 yards) better than most any other revolver/pistol I have ever owned. The extra weight of the part steel construction does not hinder the ease of carry for me but it is not feather lite like the little 442. I don't have any experience with the 38 LCR. GlockMonk05-17-2012, 06:48I own both. I'll take the LCR any day over the Smith. LCR has much better trigger, less weight, and most importantly customizable sights. You could either put on a fiber optic, or tritium night sights on the LCR very easily. The Smith does however win the "looks" department. GlockMonk itstime05-17-2012, 06:52As others have said the Ruger is better nowadays. I don't carry revolvers enough to change or get one to justify the price. If I were starting over it would be the LCR. ArmedMikeL05-17-2012, 18:18I bought a Ruger LCR .38SP and never have looked back. I love it ! Ryder10205-18-2012, 13:24I love my LCR in 357, though I think I'll be removing my Laser Grips and replacing it with the Hogue Tamer grips. I love the trigger and like the ease of replacing the front sight (mine's an XS night sight). Like others have already said, though, I would save up for the LCR and keep your S&W. It's just my opinion, but I look back at some guns I have traded for others, and wish I would have kept them. F_G05-18-2012, 17:08I have a S&W 442 and 37, I also have a Ruger LCR. After installing the XS sight on the Ruger, the Smith's rarely leave the safe anymore. It is however a matter of personal preference, some seem to not like the ergo's of the LCR, I like the ergo's of the LCR better. I will also say that my Smith's NOW have a better DA trigger than the LCR, but not by much, and they've both had work while the LCR is bone stock. VictorLouis05-20-2012, 19:16I've had many J-frames over the years. Older J's w/forged guts have better triggers than new MIM guns. That said, I've now had three LCR's, and you're much more likely to get a better trigger, stock, with the Ruger. Some are better than others, as with other Rugers, and some Smiths. But, overall, much better than a stock J-frame. I've had three LCRs go through my hands now and I am impressed. I sold the magnum quickly, as shooting mags through it was bordering on brutal, and torture for the others on the range. The 158+p through the .38 cal version is right at my level of tolerance, but still tolerable. Anything in lighter grain-weight is no problem. The two .38s I had were equipped with the XS dot front night-sights. First one had the Big Dot, and I couldn't shoot a group with that to save my life. At 25yds, I would have honest concerns about hitting the torso of a BG! Still, i liked the idea of that front night-sight, so when one came around with the SMALL dot installed, i tried that. Better, much better. But, I still couldn't cover 5 shots with my outstretched hand at that distance, and it gave me pause. I've always been able to shoot groups like that with my J-.38s. The LCR OEM Hogue grip is fantastic, and the odd-looking OEM boot-grip they have for it also works like a champ. The latter is much better for pocket-carry, as you can imagine. The anodizing on this thing is something really special. It cleans-up almost like it's teflon, Ditto the darkened stainless cylinder. MPro 7 and a nylon tooth brush are all the gun needs. Downside, the LCR barely works with the HKS 36 loaders. Boot grips allow the loader to work better, but not at all smooth as with a J-frame. The Safariland Comp I for the J-frame, my fave loader, is a no-go. Strips are a non-issue, and work fine with either gun, of course. An acuaintance recently advised me of: http://5starfirearms.com/ They make a custom LCR specific HKS-style all-aluminum speedloader. Its built smaller than the generic 5-shot .38 HKS loaders. 1 - the speedloader is all aluminum with a release knob 1/2 the height of the HKS and with none of the knurling - that is a turn off (no pun) with some shooters 2 - The 5-Star comes from the factory set to release counter-clockwise - You can ask to have them set to clockwise (HKS fashion) - I would recommend getting one each in each direction and test them both. If one works better for you they can always switch the other for you later. If your Smith has a lock, I'm not a fan. Yes, the Ruger has one to. Right at the base of the grip-frame, under the grips. :tongueout: I don't see it ever becoming a problem in inertial activation under recoil. Your Smith has an external hammer, and the LCR doesn't. If you keep your thumb over the hammer spur when you draw, you can mitigate the tendency to snag. vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.

NEWORLEANS -- New Orleans Saints linebacker Scott Shanle said the Atlanta Falcons players acted classless onSunday, particularly in their treatment of ex-teammate Curtis Lofton, according to a report by Michael Silver of Yahoo!Sports.
Monday morning he told WWLTV.com it wasn't specifically something that Falcons said, but more the actions in talking to Lofton that they were bothed by some of the players.
Saints cornerback Jabari Greer, on the other hand, didn't think anything of Atlanta's actions.
'That's just the nature of the game,' Greer said Monday. 'We're very prideful people. This is a hot-tempered game. We realize they weren't going to give him flowers and buttercups. It's not one of those games. We play a game in which emotions can go crazy.'
Greer did, however, applaud Lofton for the way he approached Sunday game against the team that drafted him in the 2008 second round out of Oklahoma.
'Being professionals, we have to make sure we maintain our poise and maintain a discipline and create the chaos between the lines,' Greer said. 'I think Curtis did a great job of maintaining his professionalism and going out there and really playing lights out between the lines. I'm happy for him.'
Lofton said very little before or after the game about playing his former team. He finished the game with five tackles and one pass breakup.
The only hint as to his emotion following the game came in a simple quote, when he said, 'The team that was on the field today was the reason I came to the Saints.'
Still, Silver's story paints a different picture.
Another action by the Atlanta team rubbed some New Orleans fans the wrong way.
The 'D-block,' a Falcons.com locker room video, included a free style rap that seemed to hint that the Falcons would win without a problem onSunday. The rap occurs at the 11-minute mark.
--WWLTV.com sports reporter Bradley Handwerger contributed to this report.

Strange things are happening at Ho-Ho-Kus Junior High. The cafeteria's covered in a sea of burger wrappers. Bullies aren't bullying anymore. And there's an eerie growling coming from the walls.If anyone can get to the bottom of these mysteries, it's Denton, Wendell, Eddie, Elijah, and Bijay. They may be misfits, but they're also the smartest kids in the eighth grade. There's just one problem. Vice Principal Snodgrass has framed them for a crime they didn't commit and imprisoned them in a secret room in the bowels of the school. His terms: Ace the dreaded Idaho Tests and all will be forgiven. Their plan: figure out who—or what—is to blame for the changes at school.It will take the nerdiest of skills. It will be a test that can be passed only by a select few, a.k.a. Dweeb.

Health and welfare
Before 1949 there were large, efficient modern hospitals, run by Christian missions and secular bodies in both Hankou and Wuchang; good though many were, they were inadequate to meet the needs of the rural people. Insofar as rural needs were met at all, they were served by medical missionaries and nurses, scattered sparsely throughout the province, as well as by Chinese doctors, herbalists, and acupuncturists. From the 1950s the city hospital services were greatly enlarged, offering a choice of Western or Chinese medicine; however, most attention has been paid to public health and to preventive medicine. Debilitating diseases such as schistosomiasis (a parasitic disease) and malaria were attacked; drinking water and the proper disposal of sewage were supervised; standards of personal hygiene and of the cleanliness of streets and public places were raised. These measures, and the equitable distribution of food, have served to improve health and increase production.
The educational pattern in Hubei is similar to that in the rest of the country. From 1949 onward determined efforts have been made to overcome illiteracy. By 1970 it was estimated that nearly two-thirds of the people were literate, and this proportion has steadily grown. Wuchang, which was the early capital of the ancient province of Huguang, has remained the educational and cultural heart of Hubei. Under the Nationalist government (1928–49), the former Ziqiang Institute (1893) was designated a national university (now Wuhan University; 1928) and built on one of the three large lakes outside the old walled city, and a Christian university (eventually called Huachung University; 1922) was established inside the city itself. After 1949 both these institutions were incorporated into the new educational system, which now includes several dozen institutions of higher learning throughout the province.
Cultural life
In common with all other provinces, Hubei has experienced considerable change in its cultural life since 1949. The great extension of education and the increase in literacy have had a far-reaching effect. In the cities, museums and libraries have been opened and are much patronized. Large stadia, sports halls, and swimming pools have also been built. The theatre still retains great popularity, particularly the regional operatic form known as Chu opera.
The rural areas, no less than the towns, have undergone great cultural change. Electricity has been extended to villages and hamlets. Every village of any size now has its own stores, its library, and its hall, in which meetings are convened, health clinics are held, and table tennis is played. Being probably better lighted than individual homesteads, the hall has become the place where villagers assemble to chat or listen to the radio or watch television. Storytelling—an agelong profession, which is still very popular—serves to preserve folklore. Country life is enlivened by occasional visits of professional players, entertainers, and acrobats.
Hubei province is rich in natural and historical sites that are draws for a growing number of tourists. The imposing Three Gorges region of the Yangtze is world-renowned. Shennongjia Nature Reserve, in the western Daba Mountains, is celebrated for its dense woods and abundant and highly varied plant and animal life. Other popular tourist destinations include Dong (East) Lake and Huanghe (Yellow Crane) Pavilion in Wuhan and the collection of ancient religious and secular buildings on Mount Wudang (also in the Daba Mountains), which collectively were designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1994.

Day to Day Itinerary:
Day 1: Southampton, UK:
Fly Dublin to Southampton. Boudicca awaits your arrival, where you will be welcomed on board by the excellent crew. You will have plenty of time to settle in and explore the ship, as she leaves port late at night.
Day 2-3: At Sea:
Your first days at sea are spent cruising north towards Alesund, Norway. Take some time to settle in, relax and enjoy the facilities that Boudicca has to offer.
Day 4: Alesund, Norway: Arrive am – Depart late pm
From striking fjords and mountains to a pretty skyline punctuated by spires and turrets, Alesund is a true charmer. Spread across 3 islands, discover its quaint harbour and canals, Art Nouveau architecture and Atlantic Sea Park aquarium.
Day 5: Cruising:
As you cruise towards Lodingen Pilot Station aboard Fred.olsen Black Watch take some time to settle in and enjoy your surroundings.
Day 6: Lodingen Pilot Station:
Day 7: Tromso, Norway:
Tromso is your port of call for today, located some 350km north of the Arctic Circle. From here, you will have the opportunity to see your second natural phenomenon on this fabulous cruise holiday, as you will be there at the best time of year to see the Northern Lights. Be patient, as you are at the mercy of Mother Nature; but if you do see the Aurora Borealis, your patience will be well rewarded, as it is nothing short of breath-taking.
Day 9: Alta, Finnmark, Norway:
Rebuilt after the Second World War, the town of Alta has a long history, having been inhabited by the Sami people since prehistoric times. Here you will enjoy an overnight stay, giving you the best chance to see the Northern Lights in all their awe-inspiring glory.
In Alta, why not join our shore tour to Maze, the world's purest Sami village, where all but one family in the population of 350 are Sami or, for something a bit different, why not try the Igloo Hotel experience, where everything is made from snow and ice, including the room, beds and glasses in the ice bar.
Day 10: Lodingen Pilot Station:
Day 11:Cruising:
Day 12: Solar Eclipse:
We will arrive at the best latitude and longitude point at sea to give the highest possible chance of seeing the total eclipse. Be sure to look out for 'Baily's Beads', where the sun shines through the rugged surface of the moon, creating points of light on the edge of the moon's disc. These will only be visible for a few seconds, just before the sun disappears. The diamond ring effect is seen as a single bead of light, giving the effect of an enormous sparkling diamond on a shiny ring.
Day 13: Runavik,Faroe Islands:
The Port of Runavík is well known as being particularly safe and well protected from the large Atlantic waves.
Cruise ships dock at Kongshavn, which translates to King's Harbour. History tells us that both the King of Denmark and even earlier the vikings used this harbour because it was the safest in the Faroe Islands.
The Port is situated in the southern part of Eysturoy, the second largest of the Faroe Islands with an area of 268 km2 and a population of about 11.000.
For scenery lovers, don't miss the idyllic village of Gjógv, named after the 650ft long gorge that runs northwards towards the sea, from the village.
Day 14 & 15: Cruising:
This brings your unforgettable Solar Eclipse cruise to an end, and you cruise back towards Southampton, UK whilst enjoying the facilities on board Boudicca.

Save the Dunes is Northwest Indiana's advocate for air, land and water. It consists of two organizations:
The Common Mission of the Save the Dunes Council and Save the Dunes Conservation Fund is to preserve, protect and restore the Indiana Dunes and all natural resources in Northwest Indiana's Lake Michigan Watershed for an enhanced quality of life. The Save the Dunes Council was founded in 1952, one of the oldest grassroots conservation organizations in the country. The hard work of Save the Dunes Council members led to the establishment of the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore in 1966; the group continues to work on a wide variety of issues concerning the Dunes and the environmental quality of the area. The efforts of the Save the Dunes Council are supported entirely by membership dues, donations and volunteer time.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Perfect Program
I was one of those brides that thought, no problem I can make my own program fans. Then I looked into it, went to the copy place, they told me I had to find special thicker paper; the craft store didn't have long enough wooden sticks, so I'd be going to online to order them. Of course don't forget about the time+patience+man hours to craft it = stressed out bride. With my wedding date 3 weeks away for my order date, I found Magnet Street. It was such a blessing, they had beautiful options, best prices and excellent turn around time. I got my fans yesterday (10 days) before my wedding and I couldn't be more happy about my decision to use Magnet Street.
Beautiful Wedding Programs
My family and friends went crazy over the wedding program fans. In fact, many took two or three as keepsakes. I was very impressed with the production and design. I could personalize and alter the design any way that I wanted to. The quality of the paper was well worth the money. The turnaround time was remarkable as well. I would definitely recommend this product!
Fans were great! Loved them!
These were the last things I did and Magnet Street did them quickly and beautifully and they were shipped fast! I think the entire process took 6 days! They turned out great and everyone loved them for our beach wedding! I would highly recommend!

Cool but not the same
Looks cool
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments about Monochrome Face Mask:
It's a really cool mask but not exactly what's shown in the picture so I was a little disappointed. The picture to me looks like it has eyebrows, a mesh or something over the eyes and a closed mouth. The mask I got has no eyebrows, open eyes and mouth. Look at the blank male mask and it's the same as that except it's black.

I didn't have such a wonderful time at law school because I felt the administration and much of the faculty weren't honest when it came to the study of law and more importantly, our job opportunities. There was one law professor who was a shining light because he told it like it was and was just up front and honest with people. His name is Bernie Corr. I don't mind the C+ in Civil Procedure because he told us that some of us were getting that grade and I did better with him in two other classes.
History has shown that I love people who are upfront and honest about things and I show less love for those who hide the ball.
When it came time to a Bankruptcy seminar course, he told us that any changes in bankruptcy are a boon to bankruptcy law and was insisting that many of these changes might have to do with making money for bankruptcy attorneys.
Every 6-7 years every retirement plan has to be restated into a new plan document and every few years, there needs to be ancillary amendments. I admit that I steal professor Corr's line that all these amendments and restatements are to keep ERISA attorneys like me employed. Seriously, retirement plan laws change and plans have to be amended to reflect that.
For the past 10 years, there has been a host of plan restatements and ancillary amendments that have been required for all retirement plan sponsors. There have been so many ancillary amendments, that even I have to keep a full checklist of what was done. Plan sponsors are in worse shape because many don't have all the ancillary amendments (whether they were done or nor and whether they were actually signed or not) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) knows that especially when it comes to plan audits. Not having all the required plan amendments and restatements is an excellent way for the IRS to make a few shekels on penalties when auditing a plan.
So it's a good idea for a plan sponsor to take inventory of their plan documents and amendments to make sure they have a set that are up to date and correctly dated. If not, a submission to the IRS' voluntary compliance program beats getting penalized on an audit because it costs a lot less.

LAKEWOOD — Marin Olson just knew she was going to score.
The Columbine sophomore midfielder/defender looked into one corner and then stared down Bear Creek goalkeeper Hunter Worthley before depositing the game-winning penalty kick into the left corner in the 86th minute as the Lady Rebels escaped with a 2-1 victory April 10 at Lakewood Memorial Field.
The hikers had covered less than 50 yards along Two Brands Trail at Hildebrand Ranch Park before stopping to inspect a small patch of pinkish petals a few inches off the ground.
Pam Little, a native plant master volunteer from Conifer with Jeffco Open Space, gathered the group around as she identified the delicate flora as red-stemmed filaree. A non-native plant, it was introduced by the Spanish via the feed they brought for their horses.
Jeffco Open Space director Tom Hoby acknowledged the need to address the increased use of county parks at a forum last week in Golden: "We're trying to enhance the visitor experience."
Hoby said Open Space is developing webcams that would allow visitors to check availability at parking lots before driving to parks.
With more and more nature lovers visiting Open Space parks, many of them are becoming crowded — especially on weekends, he noted.
A group of prairie dog lovers wants the Foothills Park and Recreation District to always consider a humane option when controlling the rodents on its properties.
Tina Gurdikian and Gina Writz, members of the Foothills Prairie Dog Task Force, urged the rec district board April 28 to move a colony of prairie dogs from the future home of a BMX track at the Schaefer Athletic Complex to another section of that property. The citizen-created group also suggested passive relocation be employed throughout Foothills' park system.
Volunteers hit the trails with trash bags in hand on April 25 in Littleton as part of the BIG Day Trails Cleanup.
The South Suburban Park Foundation hosted volunteers at the event, aimed at cleaning up the trail system of the South Suburban Parks and Rec District. Last year, the event drew more than 150 people to pick up trash and debris.
The group behind the plan to expand Chatfield Reservoir has launched a website to serve as a central location for information on the upcoming project.
The Chatfield Reservoir Reallocation Project received final approval from the Army Corps of Engineers last October. The plan will increase water storage at the state's most popular park by 20,600 acre-feet and boost water levels by up to 12 feet.
"We're the closest foothills-and-mountain experience to the largest metro area in the state," said Tom Hoby, Jeffco Open Space and Parks director.
To help park visitors make decisions about which Open Space trails to use, they are rated according to difficulty, Hoby told the county commissioners on April 14.
LAKEWOOD — From the ride to Trailblazer Stadium to the pregame warm-ups, there was a different vibe to this Columbine-Chatfield boys' lacrosse game for the Rebels.
A clash of 5A top-10 teams with first place in the Front Range League on the line, the intensity was in the air. The last thing Columbine head coach Matt Plitnick wanted was his team to dig itself an early hole.
The following are all-conference selections for the 5A Jeffco League for the 2014-15 boys and girls basketball seasons:
Thomas Neff, Arvada West; Luke Neff, Arvada West; Trevaun Arnold, Bear Creek; Colin Downs, Chatfield; Keaton Matthies, Columbine; Cody Pittman, Dakota Ridge; Mason Grothuesmann, Dakota Ridge; Kolton Peterson, Lakewood; Jacob Storey, Lakewood; Antonio Capley, Ralston Valley
The teams, like the bodies that make them up, were extremely lean at the Jeffco tri-meet April 3 at The Ridge Rec Center as Columbine, Evergreen and Lakewood high schools boys' swim teams fought through missing swimmers to gain points and nab state qualifying times.
Lakewood, with the fullest team, won the meet with 287 points total, bagging nine first-place finishes and four state qualifying times. But it was Columbine who struggled the most having only nine of its 25 swimmers competing. It took almost half of their total team just to make a relay.

From the Publisher
"There is . . . a scarcity of updated information that is compiled in one volume on plant-parasitic nematode physiology and biochemistry. The authors of this book have presented a 'very good condensation' of research on free-living nematodes and a meticulous review of salient research on the molecular biology, biochemistry and physiology of the plant-parasitic nematodes. The book contains 15 review chapters. . . . The authors are world-renowned experts in their field of nematology, and so they were able to present excellent reviews in a concise and well-focused manner. Their citations provide multiple access routes to key literature. . . . [T]he book is an excellent resource for those who need an introduction or overview of the latest developments in research on free-living and plant-parasitic nematodes. I would enthusiastically recommend this book to graduate students and other interested scientists in biological and agricultural fields . . ."--The Quarterly Review of Biology

Sherrod Turns Pawn in All-Jewish Race
Candidate Pollak won't dissociate from Breitbart
Last week, conservative impresario Andrew Breitbart's BigGovernment.com posted video of a black U.S. Department of Agriculture bureaucrat telling an NAACP gathering that she didn't fully help a white farmer. This prompted Ag to fire her, which prompted revelations that her remarks were deliberately taken out of context, which prompted offers to rehire her and an apology from President Obama. Now, the Shirley Sherrod affair has entered this week's news cycle in a heated U.S. Congressional race featuring two Jewish candidates.
Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Illinois), running for re-election, called on her opponent, Joel Pollak, to stop writing blogposts for Breitbart's site. Yesterday, Pollak's spokesperson announced that the Republican candidate will not accede to that demand. "Andrew used intemperate language in his debate with the NAACP, which was wrong," Pollak said in a statement. "It was even more wrong for the White House and the NAACP to punish a woman for alleged racism without conducting a full and fair investigation."
Pollak is the first Republican whom influential Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz has ever endorsed, which to an extent has embodied how some American Jewish voters may be willing to compromise their generally Democratic politics over the Israel issue. Pollak is about as attractive as a Republican could be to a Jewish Democrat: He is Jewish and strongly pro-Israel, and believes abortion and gay marriage are issues best left to the states. At the same time, in this case he is declaring himself on the side of a debate associated with the Republican Party's activist right wing, including the Tea Partiers. Will that turn off Jewish Democrats who may have been willing to look the other way when it came to, say, Pollak's opposition to Obama's health-care reform? It is barely three months till we find out.

Brilliant as always
Richard you are the hero of my world for years now but i wish you would.......
Stop using the word science in a way that makes it sound religious. You have such a perfect way with words but being a scientist and talking about 'Science'; as in science this and science that, and, if science cant prove something then religion can't etc.
I, and everyone here gets what you saying.... but religious people will never get it and in their world it makes science sound dogmatic, and elitist.
I love the 1st chapter of Bad Science where Ben Goldacre make it clear.
Anyone can do an experiment, science is nothing more then 'The best method we have' anyone can have to find out if anything is true, its really simple and anyone can use it.
Would it not be a good tact?
To make this really clear at all times??? It's an easy simple method, you, (creationist etc) can use to find out if something is true. Anyone can use this it.
Rather then use the term science, use scientific method.
Has help me corner irrational people in the past and I have a tiny fraction of the debating skills you do :)

The Television Journalists' Association (TVJA) demanded here today, that Brihanmumbai Municipal Commissioner Sitaram Kunte act against illegal hawkers, after condemning an attack by hawkers on a Hindi TV news channel journalist, a couple of days ago.
"The problem of illegal hawkers is being faced across the city and it has led to a serious law and order problem. If a journalist can become their target then what will happen to a common man," TVJA president Vilas Athawale said after meeting Kunte.
A delegation led by Athawale also handed over a representation to the civic body chief on the issue.
"Arrogance of illegal hawkers is on the rise. It has become more of a social issue," TVJA general secretary Prasad Kathe said.
Assuring journalists that the issue of illegal hawking would be discussed with the committee of hawkers, Kunte said, "The civic body has been implementing the Supreme Court's guidelines on hawkers. The issue of illegal hawkers will be discussed with the street vendors committee".
"We will see to it that such incidents are not repeated in future," he said.
On April 26, a Hindi TV news channel journalist Sanjay Prasad and his wife were attacked by six men after he objected to lewd remarks passed at his wife at suburban Malad's Sainath Market.
Two people have been arrested in the case and a hunt is on for three more people, sources said.

Revolutionary New Hygiene Product Provides Extended Efficacy for All Day Protection Against Deadly Bacteria
TORRANCE, Calif., April 28 /PRNewswire/ -- SKWPartners LLC announced today the extended U.S. launch of SkinWear, www.skinwearusa.com, the only extended-protection, all-in-one hand cleanser, sanitizer and moisturizer which has been proven to kill germs for as long as eight hours with a single application. This non-alcohol based product picks up where commonly available anti-bacterial soaps and "instant sanitizers" leave off. SkinWear not only kills 99.9% of all germs that can make people sick, including the germs that may cause the swine flu, it continues to kill bacteria for up to eight hours, drastically decreasing the potential spread of germs and contamination.
"SkinWear is a radical departure from hygiene products available to date," said SKWPartners' Tom Guzek. "Not only is SkinWear more thorough and cost-effective than current anti-bacterial soaps and alcohol-based hand sanitizers, SkinWear's eight hour extended efficacy actually continues to kill germs between washings, reducing the spread of germs."
As concern mounts regarding the spike in illnesses and deaths caused by the "swine flu" virus, everyone from parents to school administrators to hospitals and restaurants, are looking for new ways to ward off a potential crisis.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Swine Influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza that regularly causes outbreaks of influenza among pigs. Swine flu viruses do not normally infect humans, however, human infections with swine flu do occur, and cases of human-to-human spread of swine flu viruses have been documented.

Responding to the alleged involvement of agents and lobbyists in the placement of orders for the Tatra trucks, BEML chief V.R.S. Natarajan said that over the past 26 years, from 1986 onwards, BEML had assembled, manufactured and supplied 7,000 Tatra trucks. "All of them have been done on a single nomination basis [and] a single inquiry basis. This type of equipment nobody in the world makes, because of its superior technological features. When I am the single vendor and there is no competition, there is no influence required."
Countering allegations about the pricing of Tatra trucks, the BEML chief said these trucks had "flexible axle," compared with those with "fixed-axle," and were technologically superior, boasting features like air-cooled engines.
In recent field trials conducted by the Army, Mr. Natarajan said, fixed-axle trucks that had missiles mounted on them got stuck in the desert; the Army had to seek the services of Tatra trucks to pull them out. However, he did not name the manufacturer of "fixed-axle" trucks but indicated that the Army had relaxed qualitative requirements in this case.

Lok Sabha speaker Sumitra Mahajan has finally conveyed to the Congress that it would not have a leader of opposition in Lok Sabha. In a letter to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, according to sources, she has cited three reasons — past precedents, the 10% rule and legal opinion.
In 1980 or 1984 (the seventh and eighth Lok Sabhas) and in 1971 (fifth Lok Sabha), when the Congress swept elections and no opposition party managed to get 10 per cent seats, there was no Leader of Opposition in the House.
The speaker conveyed to the Congress that it did not fulfill the condition that for a leader of opposition, a party has be a recognised one with at least 55 seats. The Congress has 44 seats in Lok Sabha.
Mahajan had taken legal advise from Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi and others before taking a formal call on the matter.
The Congress, which had given a letter to the speaker with 60 signatures which included those of its allies requesting that it be granted the post, had been using the argument that in the 80s, the absence of a leader of opposition was because no party staked claim for it. However, Lok Sabha sources said the post is not granted to a coalition of parties but to a single party.
The government had lobbed the ball into the speaker's court saying it would be her discretion. Though the speaker had written the letter on August 14, the last day of the budget session, it was delivered to Gandhi on Tuesday after the long weekend, sources said.
There was acrimony between the Congress and the treasury benches in the session, particularly in Rajya Sabha, which BJP leaders said was a reflection of the Opposition party's ire over the LoP issue.
The leader of opposition serves on several important panels including those for the selection of Chief Vigilance Commissioner, CBI director and Lokpal members. The post got statutory recognition in 1977 through the Salary and Allowances of Leaders of Opposition in Parliament Act.
In the Judicial Appointments Commission, replacing the Collegium system of appointing judges, the government has made provision for "leader of the largest party" if there is no leader of opposition, in the six-member committee. However, there is no clarity on whether government would adopt the same pattern in other selection panels.

140 jobs affected by sale of Unilever line
Nearly 140 jobs at a major Owensboro food processor could be affected by the company's decision to sell one of its product lines.
Unilever North America operates a 515-employee plant on Owensboro's east side that produces Ragu spaghetti sauce as well as frozen meals and appetizers under the names Bertolli and P.F. Chang.
The frozen food operation employs 139 people, according to Nick Brake, president of the Greater Owensboro Economic Development Corp.
On Monday, Unilever announced it will sell its frozen meals business to ConAgra Foods Inc. for $265 million, putting those 139 positions in question.
"I think it's premature to say 140 people" will be laid off, Brake said.
"It will be a year before it all takes shape," he said. "Their intent is to try to absorb (those positions). We're not sure if that means through attrition or moving temps (temporary workers) out."
In addition, Brake said, "We talked with them about opportunities for future expansion and other product lines" that would avoid layoffs.

Kirin topping drinks with "soft serve" frozen beer foam
Kirin has introduced frozen beer foam that is served on top of a drink like soft serve ice cream, to keep it cold
Kirin is currently previewing the Ichiban Shibori Frozen Draft in Tokyo, but plans to launch the drink in the rest of the country in May
We've seen plenty of innovative ways to keep beer cold in recent months, with everything from a refrigerator with a built-in blast chiller to a can that cools itself at the push of a button. But these have all involved cooling the beer's container, leaving the liquid inside to warm up at the same rate as any other beverage. That's why Japanese beer maker Kirin has gone a different route, and developed a method for cooling the beer directly and, more importantly, keeping it chilled for much longer. The company's new Ichiban Shibori Frozen Draft stays at a low temperature thanks to a specially-developed machine that dispenses a topping of frozen beer foam like soft serve ice cream.

Impaler is the current jungler for Team Coast. Previously a member of Supa Hot Crew a and a former competitive chess player, Impaler is no stranger to cutthroat competition. Though SHC displayed serious promise in the 2014 spring split, Impaler and the team have yet to unlock the secret of consistency. Should Impaler find himself at the center of improved coordination, he will certainly find success both in individual games and in the LCS at large during the summer split. He hopes to find that coordination on a revamped Coast roster after a trip from Europe to North America.
