Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 10/20/12
After six seasons with the Red Sox, Dave Magadan has moved on. On the heels of Bobby Valentine's firing, the hitting coach accepted the same position with the Rangers on Friday night. And his addition to the Texas coaching staff is bound to improve the club's hitting.Under his tutelage, the Red Sox evolved into one of the most feared lineups in the majors. Even without David Ortiz, Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin Pedroia, and Adrian Gonzalez at different points in the 2012 season, Boston still finished eighth in runs in the majors. With Magadan in his ear, catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia finally developed a power stroke, blasting 25 long balls this year. Earlier in the season, outfielder Cody Ross attributed his rejuvenation at the plate to Magadan's guidance. In 130 games, Ross wound up finishing with 81 RBIs and 22 home runs –– two shy of his career high. "In short a period of time I've been with him, he's been unbelievable -- probably the best hitting coach I've ever had," Ross said back in April. "He's very prepared, just outstanding, just great to be able to lean on when you need advice or someone needs to pat you on the back, saying, 'Keep going. Things are going to come.' It's definitely nice to have." With or without Josh Hamilton, Magadan will work a loaded lineup. Last season, the Rangers were first in the AL in runs (808), fourth in home runs (200), third in on-base percentage (.334) and second in slugging (.446). Magadan is already accustomed to working with superstar personalities in Boston, so tutoring standouts such as Ian Kinsler, Nelson Cruz and Michael Young should prove to be an easy transition in Texas. On the flipside, Kinsler and Cruz –– who are each coming off subpar seasons –– will certainly respect Magadan, who has a World Series ring and has been a hitting coach since retiring in 2001. During his time with the Red Sox, the 50-year-old preached the importance of grinding out at-bats. His reputation, highlighted by his communication with players, should aid the Rangers, who hit just .228 over the last 13 games of the regular season. He'll also have an established rapport with Rangers manager Ron Washington, who managed him in 1997 and 1998 in Oakland. Given the rotating door with the managerial job in Boston, a dose of stability in Texas will prove for a better atmosphere.

Beck Backs Birch: Conspiracy Theory 'Makes Sense'
Growing up, CNN host Glenn Beck thought the extreme-right John Birch Society was "a bunch of nuts." But on his July 25 Headline News show, Beck told his JBS guest, "You are starting to make more and more sense to me."
The visitor to the "Glenn Beck" show was Sam Antonio, the 31-year-old Southern California coordinator of the John Birch Society. Antonio said JBS believes a 2005 agreement with Canada and Mexico "has allowed the Mexican government to get a hold on our enforcement of laws here in America."
Antonio was referring to the SPP, the Security and Prosperity Partnership agreement. The pact, aimed at easing regulatory barriers between the United States, Canada and Mexico, has been seized upon by nativists and far-right groups as a secret conspiracy to eliminate borders and replace the dollar bill with the "Amero," accepted everywhere from Toronto to Mexico City. No one has done more to promote this bogus conspiracy theory than JBS, which in the bad old days saw communists hiding under every bed — including President Eisenhower, hardly a commie candidate in most minds.

Maryland Minutemen Clash With Demonstrators
A protest outside a day-laborer center in Montgomery County yesterday morning drew dozens of demonstrators who clashed over whether county officials should use taxpayer funds to provide services to illegal aliens.

With shouts of "God Bless America" and "USA! USA!" about 40 anti-illegal immigration activists lined Laguna Canyon Road Saturday evening to protest against Laguna Beach and Caltrans.

Anti-Semitic Prof's Teaching Curtailed
Kevin MacDonald, the California State University, Long Beach, psychology professor who wrote an anti-Semitic trilogy explaining why he thinks Jews are bad for white societies, has been removed from instructing certain classes. Gerry Riposa, dean of the College of Liberal Arts, told Hatewatch that MacDonald would no longer be teaching lower-level courses, including a required course for psych majors specializing in child development. MacDonald, at right, received an award and $10,000 for his work on the Jews from The Occidental Quarterly, a white supremacist journal. He was accompanied at the 2004 ceremony by Virginia Abernethy, a self-described "white separatist" and official of the racist Council of Conservative Citizens. ( continue to full post… )
O'Reilly Redux: Lesbian Gangs and the Daily Kos
Since Fox News host Bill O'Reilly refuses to stop comparing the liberal Daily Kos blog to the KKK, Nazis, and former Klan boss David Duke, we feel obligated to clarify for the record that the Daily Kos is NOT one of the 566 U.S.-based hate websites monitored by the SPLC's Intelligence Project.
Not that we expect O'Reilly to correct course anytime soon. It's been more than a month and the host of "The O'Reilly Factor" has yet to fully retract the absurd "pink pistol-packing" lesbian gangs segment that aired in late June that we helped make infamous with our point-by-point takedown.

Taking on the Klan
This morning, the Southern Poverty Law Center followed up an earlier lawsuit against two Klansmen by filing a complaint against their organization, the Imperial Klans of America (IKA), and three additional individuals (full story here). Both legal actions are based on the savage July 2006 beating by several IKA members of a 16-year-old boy at the Meade County Fairgrounds in Brandenburg, Ky. The attackers, one of whom weighed 300 pounds, called their 150-pound victim a "spic" and left him with broken bones and other serious injuries. ( continue to full post… )

Leaders pave way for others
Like her older brother Hector, Cleo Garcia fought for civil rights with the same ambition with which she approached education. Garcia was one of the first Hispanic female doctors in Texas and was an ardent advocate of education and equal rights. She was the first female Del Mar College regent and the first Hispanic woman in the medical field to be inducted into the Texas Women's Hall of Fame. Garcia organized genealogical materials and wrote several books on the history of South Texas.
Contact Adriana Garza at 886-3618 or HYPERLINK mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com firstname.lastname@example.com. Hector P. Garcia
As founder of the American GI Forum, Hector Garcia rallied others to oppose discrimination against Mexican-Americans in Texas. As a medical doctor, Garcia always made time for patients, regardless of their ability to pay. Garcia, who defended his country in World War II, fought to end the segregation of Mexican Americans in Texas at a time when everything from schools to restaurants was segregated. Garcia served as an alternate ambassador to the United Nations, was the first Mexican American to serve on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights and received the highest civilian honor in 1984 when he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.Bernardo (Ben) F. Garza
The first president general of LULAC, Garza is credited for helping to unite several Mexican-American organizations in the 1920s to form one unified entity called LULAC. The organization would go on to be a constant champion of civil rights. His leadership role led him to testify in front of the U.S. Congressional Committee on Immigration. Garza advocated the formation of other local LULAC councils and by 1930 LULAC was 20,000 members strong.Jose Tomas (J.T.) Canales
A founding father of the League of United Latin American Citizens, J.T. Canales served as state representative for two different districts in the early 20th century. He also served as county judge in Cameron County. He served on the first LULAC board of directors and was president of the organization from 1932 to 1933. Canales is also recognized for his stand against the often-brutal tactics of the Texas Rangers against Tejanos (Texans of Mexican descent). Citing many instances of unlawful violence against Tejanos, Canales called for a legislative investigation into the agency.John Marez
Corpus Christi City Councilman John Marez says he was born with a love for politics in his blood.
Marez's parents, though not politically active, instilled in him a sense of civic duty. He remembers following his parents into the voting booth on Election Day as a child, filled with wonder and questions about the process.
When Marez was in the fifth grade, Mayor Luther Jones, who died in 2002, visited his class.
"Ever since then, I wanted to serve on the City Council," Marez said.
Marez's dedication to the city comes from a lifetime of living here. He attended Ray High School, Del Mar College and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi.
The first in his family to graduate from college, Marez recognizes his path of education and success was one paved by the struggles and sacrifices of those who came before him.
Marez grew up hearing the stories about his grandfather, who served in the U.S. military and was not allowed to eat at the same restaurants as Anglos.
"This was a man who was serving his country but couldn't eat a meal in a restaurant," Marez said. "That motivated me to fight."
For now, Marez's fight is to keep young people from leaving the city and to revitalize the city's older neighborhoods and the downtown area.
"We've come a long way, and I'm proud of my community."Joe Cisneros
Working with small businesses is nothing new for Hispanic Chamber of Commerce President Joe Cisneros. By the age of 15, the Kingsville native was helping run his family's radio station, KFLZ, broadcasting in the Kingsville/Bishop area.
Today he helps small minority-owned businesses get their start, providing entrepreneurs with guidance and information to build a solid business plan.
"Corpus Christi is a community made up of small business," Cisneros said. "We must nurture those small businesses because they are the backbone of this community."
As a young boy, Cisneros accompanied his father to the set of the "Domingo Pena Show," a local television show featuring Tejano musicians and community leaders. Cisneros said listening to Dr. Hector P. Garcia speak on the show had a lasting impact on his life.
"We were able to watch the strides so many Latinos made," Cisneros said. "My generation was greatly impacted by that commitment to inform the Hispanic community."
Cisneros said Hispanic small-business owners bring several unique elements to their businesses, elements he said can foster a strong business.
"I believe the Hispanic community and its commitment to family, trust and loyalty is the glue that will propel it forward in its success," Cisneros said. Mary Helen Berlanga
For Mary Helen Berlanga, it was difficult to get a sense of the world from Calvert, a town about 35 miles northwest of College Station. The closest she got was the stories her sixth-grade teacher would recount of her travels. The farthest place Berlanga had visited was Waco.
While she may not have been able to visit all the places she learned about in her school textbooks, Berlanga never forgot her parents' advice.
"They'd tell me be proud of who you are and where you come from," Berlanga said.
It's a message she's instilled in her own four children and a message that's inspired her work on the Texas Board of Education to include Mexican-American history and culture in school curriculum.
Berlanga said textbooks once offered Hispanic students little in the way of cultural heroes. She has advocated the inclusion of Mexican-American history in textbooks and believes students should take pride in the struggles and accomplishments of their ancestors.
"Our books should talk about the contributions of Hispanics - how there were Hispanics that fought in the Civil War and Hispanics who fought at the Alamo with Davy Crocket and Jim Bowie," Berlanga said. "They were heroes, too."
While most textbooks now include the accomplishments of such civil rights leaders as Dr. Hector P. Garcia and some include information on the Mexicans who fought at the Alamo against Santa Anna's forces, Berlanga said there is still a lot of history and culture missing.
"I think we've come a long way, but we haven't come far enough," she said. Carlos Truan
Retiredstate Sen. Carlos Truan was 7 years old when a reprimand from an elementary school teacher forever changed his life.
Growing up in Kingsville, Truan communicated with his family and friends in Spanish - the only language spoken at home. Things were different at school where, by law, English was the only language that could be spoken.
One slip of the tongue and Truan faced punishment.
"I asked this other boy on the playground 'Avientame la pelota' - throw me the ball," Truan said. "My teacher said, 'Carlos, go to the principal's office,' and I was physically punished.
"It's something I've never forgotten," he said.
Truan carried the incident close to his heart throughout his life in public service as a legislator.
One of the first triumphs of his legislative career was the passage of the Texas Bilingual Education Act of 1969. It ended the legal ban on Spanish in schools, when the Hispanic dropout rate was about 80 percent. According to a 2003 Pew Hispanic Center study, some estimates put the nationwide Hispanic dropout rate at about 30 percent.
Truan's battle to implement bilingual education in all grades across the state has often been an uphill battle, he said, with teachers, parents and fellow legislators opposing much of the legislation he proposed on the matter.
But the legislation survived and the growing population of limited-English-proficient students today receive an education tailored to their needs. While the legislation is a definite triumph, Truan said the English-only laws that existed when he was growing up hurt the state.
"Had we accepted the bilingual education from the beginning, we would have had a more viable population of people who could communicate in two languages," Truan said.
Life for Hispanics in South Texas has forever been altered through the years by men and women who, because of their personal beliefs or experiences, saw something in their community they felt needed to change for the better.They hoped their efforts to help make the necessary changes might improve the quality of life for others. Such leaders have rallied the Hispanic community through turbulent times, been constant advocates for education and fought to give voice to a people who for so long went unheard.
These are just a few of those leaders' stories from both the past and present.

University will add millions to coffers
Campus expected to draw new businesses, boost existing ones
"I'm kind of the town crier," said Muraoka, an economics professor at CSUCI. "We typically have five or six people. We rarely go to the same place twice."
The lunch routine evolved largely out of necessity -- faculty members, staff members and administrators have been working long days behind their desks to get the university opened, and the only place to eat on campus is a small coffee shop that serves sandwiches.
Each time they visit a local restaurant, university employees and students are contributing to the local economy.
"We have about 50 customers weekly from the university," said Eva DeLeon, co-owner of DeLeon's Mexican restaurant. University President Richard Rush "comes here all the time. Suprema Tostada Chicken. He's never changed so far."
In the coming years, the university's presence is expected to add millions of dollars to area businesses. New companies already are gravitating to the region to be near the campus. Faculty, staff and students frequent dining establishments and shops. The campus itself will spend millions of dollars on construction, supplies and other expenses, all to the benefit of local businesses.
"There's a multiplier effect," Rush said. "From every dollar that comes into the university, $4 to $6 goes out into the region."
Using that formula, CSU Channel Islands' economic impact for the current year would be estimated at $100 million to $150 million. The university's operating budget is about $25 million this year. That doesn't include the millions being spent on construction projects, such as the faculty and staff housing or the new science building.
Ultimately, the campus could add $1 billion a year to the local economy, Rush said.
Impact varies by city
Economists differ on the formula for economic benefit; some say the multiplier effect is two or three to one. Robert Rider, economics professor at CSU San Marcos, said the impact of a campus might differ depending on the economy around it.
"So much of the impact depends on the environment you're in," he said. The San Marcos area "has a less diverse economy, so some of the money leaks out of the region."
Now 13 years old, the economic impact of CSU San Marcos is estimated at between $111 million and $166 million, according to a study Rider conducted. The study also found the university's presence led to the creation of an estimated 1,615 to 2,376 new jobs in the community.
In the city of Chico, the CSU campus is responsible for about $473 million in business revenue for the local economy, said Warren Jensen, manager of the economic studies program at the Center for Economic Development at CSU Chico.
CSU Chico serves about 15,000 students, about the number Channel Islands is expected to serve when the campus reaches build-out years from now.
City businesses also benefit from the educated work force the university provides for the community, which helps draw new businesses to the region, Jensen said.
Just five years after opening, Florida Gulf Coast University near Fort Myers in Lee County, Fla., has had a dramatic impact on that region's economy, officials there said.
The simple presence of the university has helped attract new businesses to the region, said university spokeswoman Sarah Evans.
"When we were talking with businesses interested in moving to the region, they wanted to know what kind of education institutions were available for their employees and their families. We had to tell them there were none," said Evans, a former Chamber of Commerce executive. "I know we lost a number of companies because of that."
Florida Gulf Coast also is anchoring a nearby research and development park, an additional enticement for prospective businesses, said Janet Watermeier, director of economic development for Lee County.
"Before the university opened, we had no ability to go after research and technology companies because we didn't have the infrastructure," Watermeier said. The university "has brought a whole different level of resources to our region."
A home for R&D businesses
CSU Channel Islands already is becoming a haven for research and development businesses. When the university moved to the former Camarillo State Hospital site, school officials decided to rent some of the unused space to businesses compatible with the campus. Eventually, the university plans to build a research and development park on a stretch of undeveloped land on campus.
Among the university's tenants are several high-tech companies -- some of them young start-ups. One of the newest tenants is BrainX, a small educational software company that develops digital study guides. The company moved from Newbury Park to the Camarillo campus at the end of July.
"We're an early start-up. We'd like students to work in our organization. It would be a great chance to test our products," said Steve Riehs, chief executive officer. "(We) see being on the campus as very synergistic."
He said, "If Cal State Channel Islands wasn't here, we'd have been in an office park somewhere. We probably would have stayed on the other side of the hill (the Conejo Grade) if this opportunity hadn't presented itself."
Ron Rieger moved his software development and consulting company, Rieger and Milliken, from Newbury Park to the university with the hope of recruiting talented students and faculty members.
"It would be nice to have young, bright students," Rieger said. "Some things we do are quite creative, and we need those people. So as the students come up, we would set up internships with them and then hire them."
Rieger and Milliken was the first company to move to the campus. Now the university is a major client, as well. The company worked with university staff members to develop software used for recruiting faculty and staff to work on campus.
That was another benefit of the move to the university, Rieger said. "We were hoping to do some work for them," he said.
The university will benefit businesses off-campus as well. Biotech giant Amgen, headquartered in Thousand Oaks, already is developing a relationship with CSUCI, donating equipment to the school's fledgling biology program.
Amgen spokeswoman Barbara Bronson Gray said the university is a nice addition to the region. It could serve as a recruiting ground for Amgen in the future and makes the region more attractive to employees recruited from other areas, she said.
"We're delighted to have them here," Gray said. "The Conejo Valley is richer the more education institutions are available. We anticipate (the university) being a great boon to the community in terms of choices in education and in terms of recruiting."
Shopping locally
Already, CSU Channel Islands is boosting the revenues of a number of local retail establishments in Camarillo.
Thousands of dollars have filtered into F. Collins Supply in Camarillo for plumbing and heating services while Ottavio's Italian Restaurant regularly caters university lunches.
People from the university are shopping at Kathlean's Yellow House in Old Town Camarillo on their lunch hours, said Kathlean Butcher, owner of the gift and antique shop.
At The Lamplighter in Old Town, bartender Lynette Chandler serves margaritas to stressed-out students.
"They were in here between tests. They were having a drink to clear their heads," Chandler said.
Camarillo does not offer all of the services the university needs, however.
Hotel and conference facilities are in short supply in the city, and university officials are directing some of that business to other cities in the region.
"We're in desperate need of hotel and meeting space," said Nancy Witherspoon, immediate past chairwoman of the board of the Camarillo Chamber of Commerce.
She said the proximity of the university, and the potential for its business, might help lure such a project to the city.
Camarillo City Manager Jerry Bankston said an application has been filed to build a hotel and conference center at Las Posas Road and Ventura Boulevard.
"That is one of those things that we're lacking," Bankston said.
"I think the university adds to the established or already recognized need. What I've heard from people most commonly is that, 'Geez, when we're doing a conference where we have 300 or 400 people, we have no choice but to go to Westlake or Ventura.' "
For the most part, city officials and businesses owners in Camarillo have a "wait and see" attitude, hoping that Camarillo's proximity will make it more appealing than other cities in the county.
It's in its infancy," said Chandler, the bartender. "Five years from now, I can see it being a big cog in our economy."

The objective of this mod is, as is it implied in the name is to bring the Ultramarines TT models and structure of the Ultramarines in-game to the Dawn of War: Soulstorm game.
We have a very detailed tech-tree fleshed out and built in-game all the while the remaining models are completed.
All voices are recorded but we continue to add extras (like Tyrannical War Veterans Rhino and Deathwatch Razorback) especially since GWS recently released the updated SM Codex (may include new units like Centurions but those are not "in-scope" currently).
No news has been posted here. If you have relevant news to share you should post it now.

This is 4vs4 map for Dawn of War Soulstorm. Check out screenshot to see what it looks like.
is this mod still going ? its super cool
is their anywhere I cant get it? I do live in australia
Hey! Now you can get it!
Of course, only if you do NOT live in australia!
There is no current release for the Ultramarines mod so you can't get it nowhere.
You will have to wait until it is released.
PS: jONES likely checked your country in your profile at moddb and used that to mess with you.
There is no way for modders to forbid their creations on specific countries currently. Afterall once things are on the internet borders make no difference.
man I feel stupid :( thanks for the help though
This mod is forbidden in Australia due to extremely high level of violence, gore and mature language.
Nothing changed since last 3 weeks.
Your models look absolutely fantastic! Great work.
May I ask how progress goes on the mod? Seems like you have a load of the models done.
wheres the actual download link for the mod I cant find it
This mod is forbidden in Australia due to extremely high level of violence, gore and mature language.

Julianne and Ryan; Kim and Kanye; Katy Perry and John Mayer; Rihanna and Chris Brown; Mila and Ashton…
Recently, these couples have become fixed units in our celebrity headlines. So much so that they have us guessing that all of them could get engaged within the next 365-ish days…
Here are Hollyscoop's predictions on when these lovely ladies of the spotlight will get popped the big question.
1. Julianne Hough: End of February.
It's no secret that this couple has wedding bells in their future. Julianne and her beau, Ryan Seacrest, are so close to getting engaged that they might already secretly be betrothed. More on that here.
The reason we think the news will arrive at the end of this month is because that's when live "American Idol" shows begin. What better stage for Ryan to pop the question (or make the big announcement)?
2. Kim Kardashian: Mid-June
The reality star is due to give birth to her first child in July. We think she'll get a ring by then from father-to-be Kanye.
Hopefully her divorce from Kris Humphries will be cleared up by then, too. Trial is set for May 6.
3. Katy Perry: July-August
Nothing says "summer" quite like a popsicle, some Katy Perry music, and a celebrity engagement.
The singer seems to be seeing fireworks since she began dating John Mayer in the summer of 2012. Their one-year anniversary could come with a ring.
On-again, off-again or not, Katy was photographed with a heart-shaped ruby on her ring finger following her romantic Valentine's date last week. We're not saying it's an engagement ring, but who steps out like that and isn't trying to make a statement?
4. Rihanna: Fall (or tomorrow)
Nothing is predictable about Rihanna, so we're not going to even pretend to know when she'll start to settle down.
Fall '13 allows plenty of time for the heat with the Chris Brown make-up to die down. By then the bottles will hopefully stop flying. She could also break-up, make-up, and break-up again with Breezy by then…
Or, she might get married tomorrow. Like we said, there's no use trying to read the tea leaves here.
5. Mila Kunis: Christmas
Ashton Kutcher tends to be the romantic type. Or, at least he plays one in crappy movies like No Strings Attached and Valentine's Day.
Something feels right about a holiday engagement for the former "That '70s Show" lovers, so we're going to go ahead and predict it. Hell, if we're wrong you'll probably forget about it by then anyway.

The power was knocked out at Cashwise Foods in New Ulm Sunday afternoon, and at and around the stoplight at the nearby Highway 14 intersection after a car hit 2 power transformers off the side of the highway. 22-year-old Kathryn Ann Piehl of Sleepy Eye was driving a 2010 Chevy Impala eastbound on Highway 14 when she apparently became dizzy and lost control of the vehicle at just before 2:30pm just west of the County Road 29 intersection. The car then collided with a tree and rolled as it hit the 2 power boxes. The extent of Piehl's injuries is unknown. Her vehicle took severe damage. Power was restored a few hours later.

HART to study rail link to Tampa International Airport
Seán Kinane
WMNF Drive-Time News Monday | Listen to this entire show:
Today the board of HART, Hillsborough Countyâs transit agency, agreed to study light rail from downtown Tampa to the Tampa International Airport. Mary Shavalier is HARTâs chief of strategic planning and program development.
"Well at today's board meeting the HART board made a decision on a very small amendment to the study area that we're looking at, to try to determine how we could try to enhance transit between downtown Tampa and the Westshore business district. We have been previously studying the area up until the airport, just the edge of the airport property and we have received some requests, including from the Hillsborough County Aviation Authority that we look at in connection rate into the existing terminal as that first phase of how do we improve the transit service in Hillsboropugh county? With this approval today we are looking at, is it better bus service? Is it bus rapid transit or is light rail transit the best transit investment for that corridor? And we are addressing that area gain from the drifting terminal at the airport all the way into downtown Tampa."
"In plans for a future terminal, a new terminal at the airport, isn't there a light rail station built into those plans?"
"Yes, the Aviation Authority Master Plan has a concept, a program for incorporation either light rail or bus rapid transit into the airport; into the existing terminal as well as further north into their future terminal, the north terminal. They have got a concept all the way into connecting both those terminals as well as actually up to Hillsborough County. So that is in the Airport Master Plan. Our plans and the Hillsborough County plans do have rapid transit going from downtown Tampa, Westshore, the airport and actually all the way up to the northwest Hillsborough County, somewhere in the vicinity of Linebaugh. We have it in our general plans. This study that we're looking at is a more detailed look at what should that exact technology be and where should that alignment go."
"On the subject of transport from downtown to the airport, the Tampa City Council wants to look at high-speed rail from downtown to the airport. Is that something that HART is looking at?"
"No, our study scope is not looking at the high speed rail. We're looking at either bus service, or light rail transit."
"And my final question is, if voters pass the one cent sales tax in November, does that make it more likely to that there will be a light rail link or bus rapid transit from downtown to the Tampa Airport as the first link?"
comments powered by Disqus
"It'll be an important link in the early stages of our, it's in our early stages of our plans. Local money is critical to pay for some of the costs of developing a system such as light rail, as well as paying for the operating of that long term operating of the cost of that system. so getting local funding such as through the referendum would help us get these projects going."

I started the buffalo kit, appropriately named The Collector.
The military guys were all anxious and happy to see me working on armor when I took the box out of the bag.
Then I showed them my plans and they literally cussed me out saying its blasphemous and unethical to the military men and women who served and my goal was terrorist minded and blah blah...
I smiled and looked at them and politely said "...which is why I'm doing it. Perhaps a candy paint and cragars would justify my decision to build my model the way I intend.". (for the record, this is not what I intend). They turned red with anger.
The guy said I would never be able to compete at contests, in which my response was "see you at the tables."
Some people just don't know how to be creative. And I get the feeling they won't know how to respond when it beats their cookie cutter builds.
Being an avid armor builder, I can wholly relate to this Mark. My goal is building one example of every tank the Marine Corps ever used. Now that said, I have stocked up on Shermans for WWII and Korea. Each one is different, each is painted differently, and all are poo pooed at my local show. The "experts" all agree these are what if builds as certainly there is no proof that existed. When confronted by my references, books, photos, etc. I am scoffed at.
I recently entered my TZH pick up in a local show. The staff about lost it. I will never attend this event again as this kind of mentality is not for me.
Keep at it bro.

Rob, the Alpacalypse is way too funny. Of course, none would end up with such pristine coats. LOL.

I feel very fortunate that I have never witnessed this kind of thing. And I sure have set some strange and heavily armed vehicles on the tables over the years.

Wayne, close minded people exist in all hobbies, all walks of life . . . that's how it goes and you can let them get you discouraged. Period. It's a great big world out there with room for everyone, so yes, I agree with you, we must keep at it.
That is why I enjoy the club I am in, we all think out side the box--some are WAY out side the box but we like it that way, and we are not "rivet counters" . This is a hobby where you can express your self in your build. and I want to say all of you are doing some great work, please carry on Thank you for the eye candy

The base (for now) is a sheet of styrene that will be tacked down to a piece of plywood with epoxy later on to keep it rigid. Underneath the dirt flocking is a sheet of plastruct craters, cut into sections to fit in strategic points about the base. I took some aluminum screening and put up fencing around two sides of the outpost tower, and glued down some N scale retaining walls (which actually come out to be perfect scale for regular brick in 1:24) that I busted the tops off of. I laid down a liberal portion of white glue (I have a 32oz bottle, so no worries ) about the base, covering the entire ground section. I sifted a moderate amount of my 'harvested' sand flock onto the glue, and let it sit for about 15 minutes to settle enough for the next step.
I took my flat camo tan rattle can and misted the dirt until it was saturated- the pressure kicked up some spots to give the ground a rocky texture so I was happy about that- and also covered the retaining walls, barbwire, and piping with paint as well. I let it sit for a bit, then gave it a liberal coat of flat clear to hold the texture once it dried.
As it was drying I sprinkled the rest of my sand flock into the crevices to add more texture. After it was dried overnight, I tilted the base in all directions to remove the excess flock.
Here's what I got so far-
I will be adding more detail bits here and there, some rubble, some bunches of dried grass, a tumbleweed mayhaps...
And of course I have to get some figures for it. It's far from done in my eyes, but it's coming along nicely!
EDIT: The vehicle in the picture is there for size comparison- 1:24 scale Toyota Sprinter Trueno- I will be using many different vehicles in this particular piece.

Here is a little progress on "The Vindicator". I was not happy with the first paint so in the tank it went. Twin Mini guns up front, Roof mounted .45 cal turrent and a slide out.50 cal in the back. Still have several things to do along with some weathering:

Well here are the update pics of the viper. I got the gun made for thr turret, chassis assembled to body, wheels and tires added although there was a problem with passenger rear,and have looked thru the spares for a few more additions. Thinking about closing up the cockpit as I cannot find the right looking driver. I was planning on posing this on a small base with the driver standing next to the vehicle. I was looking for a race driver or motorcycle officer with helmut on. The idea being that the helmut links to an on board computer allowing the driver to see in 360 degrees without ever being exposed

The book captures lighter moments as well, including the president's attention to small matters that he thought might have large meaning. After the U.S. national hockey team was crushed in a game to Sweden, 17-2, in March 1963, Kennedy called a longtime friend of his brother Robert's, David Hackett, who had played on the Olympic hockey team years earlier.
"Christ, who are we sending over there? Girls?" Kennedy said. "So, obviously, we shouldn't send a team unless we send a good one. Will you find out about it and let me know?"
Attuned to public perceptions as always, JFK exploded in anger when he saw pictures of a $5,000 hospital bedroom that had been built at a Navy base on Cape Cod, ready in case his wife, Jacqueline, went into labor while on the Cape, in 1963.
"Let's cut their budget another hundred million," Kennedy told Arthur Sylvester, an assistant secretary of Defense. "I don't care what we owe the store, I'd just like to send that goddamn furniture back. And that silly fellow who had his picture taken next to the bed, have him go up to Alaska, too."
Tense moments are occasionally broken up by moments of levity, sometimes driven by Kennedy's young children. A 4-year-old Caroline Kennedy is heard drawing laughter in the Oval Office just moments before her father reviewed the latest surveillance photographs of missile installations in Cuba.
And Caroline and John F. Kennedy Jr. burst into the room at the end of a long meeting between the president and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, who is introduced to the children as the man whose boss, Khrushchev, sent them a puppy.
"His chief is the one who sent you Pushinka," Kennedy tells his children.
In the interview, Caroline Kennedy recalled hiding under her father's desk, trying to get candy from the grownups who were around and being forced to leave the Oval Office so important business could be conducted.
"Obviously, our dream was to be allowed into the office to see him. ... I used to go after school or walk him over before school or he would come out and see what we were doing, if we were outside," she told Sawyer. "He was obviously from a big family and so it didn't bother him at all to have kids running around and hiding under the desk. There's a few episodes here where we're being ushered out of room and we don't want to go. But, obviously, he was a good persuader."
The book also includes recordings from earlier in Kennedy's political career, when he harbored significant self-doubts about his own political acumen. In a conversation with two journalist friends, three days after he declared his presidential candidacy, he confided that he was "not a political type" who enjoyed glad-handing and meeting new people.
"I think I personally am the antithesis of a politician as I saw my grandfather who was the politician," Kennedy told James Cannon and Ben Bradlee, who were both then working for Newsweek. "I'd rather read a book on a plane than talk to the fellow next to me, and my grandfather wanted to talk to everybody else. I'd rather not go out to dinner.
"I had not regarded myself as a political type," he continued. "My father didn't, he thought I was hopeless."

moreThis book deals with the recent theory of function spaces as it stands now. Special attention is paid to some developments in the last 10-15 years which are closely related to the nowadays numerous applications of the theory of function spaces to some neighbouring areas such as numerics, signal processing and fractal analysis. In particular, typical building blocks as (non-smooth) atoms, quarks, wavelet bases and wavelet frames are discussed in detail and applied afterwards to some outstanding problems of the recent theory of function spaces such as a local smoothness theory, fractal measures, fractal analysis, spaces on Lipschitz domains and on quasi-metric spaces. The book is essentially self-contained, although it might also be considered as the continuation of the two previous books of the author with the same title which appeared as volumes 78 and 84 in this book series. It is directed to mathematicians working in analysis, numerics and fractal geometry, and to (theoretical) physicists interested in related subjects such as signal processing. less

Monster Crush
Our latest post General Election Co-ALE-ition ale was launched last Wednesday "Monster Crush" which is a 3.4% hoppy golden session ale brewed by the Wild Weather brewery from Silchester. The Monster Crush pumpclip features a special photo of Howling looking admiringly at Boris Johnson taken at the Uxbridge Parliamentary seat at the General Election last month as Boris was delivering his acceptance speech. Howling entertained and engaged everybody in his own inimitable charismatic style. He was aided and abetted by three Boris Johnson lookalikes.
Baron Fullstop's recent letter to MP's
In 1963 , when Screaming Lord Sutch entered the political field as the Leader of the Teenage Party, the voting age was 21. Sutch campaigned for it to be 18 and in 1966 Harold Wilson's government extended the voting franchise to 18 year old's. In 1983, now as leader of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party , Lord Sutch argued that if you could marry, pay tax & join the army at 16 then you should be allowed to vote at 16.
As part of the EU Referendum Bill, the House of Commons debated extending the voting franchise to 16/17 year olds in an in /out (shake it all about) EU Vote (albeit some 32 years after the OMRLP had first proposed the idea) . Referendums come along once or twice in a lifetime unlike General Elections, held every five years, most sensible MP's recognise that 16/17 year olds should be given a voice on their future, much as Scotland did with the Yes/No vote .
I was saddened to read in Hansard that all three of the Worcestershire MP's voted against extending the voting franchise to 16/17 year old's , especially Harriet Baldwin , she hardly needs me to remind her that 98 short years ago she would not have had the vote let alone be in the position to deny 1.5 million 16/17 year old's the same rights. Like Mrs Baldwin, Mr Walker & Mr Huddleston remain tight lipped as to why they do not trust the youth of this county and so we draw our own conclusions. Although happy to pose with young people on the electioneering trail and address schools and academies about 'the democratic process' it appears they did little other than follow the party line as the motion was defeated by 45 votes.
At 16 you can consensually sleep with your MP but not vote for him/her, and they call us Loonies.
Baron Fullstop.
The 'Sunday People' – about lost deposits
The Sunday People interviewed Howling and published an article about "lost deposits".
"We're proud of that record," Loony leader Howling Laud Hope told the Mirror's Sunday newspaper.
"If anyone saved their deposit it would mean they are not being loony enough.
Elvis & Mac
Just a short mention on this one 'Elvis', shear coincidence, – both Phil 'Elvis' Priestly and Tony 'The Jersey Flyer' Blyth, both became bitten with the same 'Loony Bug' after meeting up with Howling 'Laud' Hope, at the then Party Headquarters, at the Golden Lion Hotel in Ashburton, Devon. Phil just happened to pop in whilst on holiday from Aldershot! Tony whilst working on Dartmoor. This was how we first met, and then they got to know each other a Party Conference in 2001 at the Dog and Partridge in Yateley, Hampshire.
Life Goes on day after day for some, and for some, not so lucky, as we are finding now. It with with regret once more, that I have to tell you of another friend of David Sutch, myself and the party. The passing of Mac Poole, Mac 'Malcolm' Poole was a professional drummer and had been around for many years and well respected in the music business.
Although not a party member, (he always said that he was a sympathiser) he had worked with the Savages on many occasions. Was heard, but not seen on many a chart hit, like a lot of not quite so well knows, he was always around. Very well known though to those that knew him, cause he couldn't stop talking. Nice banter and always very helpful.
The measure of his popularity was confirmed by the people who attended, 250 or more turned up to pay tribute. After his immediate family, it was all musician friends and acquaintances, the likes of, Rick Wakeman, Chas Mcdevitt, Billie Davis, Graham Fenton, Danny Rivers just to name a few. We were mentioned in dispatches, it was said that he would have been pleased to know that the 'Loony Party' were in attendance. So long Mac, memories from us all!
Loss of Phil "Elvis" Priestly
It really is with great sadness that I have to inform all in The OMRLP of the death of Phil "Elvis" Priestly who was a member of the Aldershot Branch for many years. He was a great friend of mine and of Bob "Professor Nabob" Stanton. He used to come to the Conferences at The Dog and Partridge in Yateley and I am sure everyone who knew him or even came into contact with him will remember him well – especially the gas mask he had on his head!!
At the conference in Hook a number of years ago he and I almost drank a pub dry whilst we sat in the back garden in the sun smoking cigars!! He was a retired member of "The Special Forces" and was not a man to be messed with!! At one time he was the landlord of one of the ale houses in Aldershot – which shall remain anonymous for obvious reasons – but anyone who frequented the establishment would have memories of downing much liquid refreshment there!! He had a tremendous sense of humour and was bloody good company and I always made a beeline to meet him whenever I flew to the Mainland and spent many happy hours with him. A very sad loss.
Tony The Jersey Flyer
Baron Von Bum's campaign in Islwyn, South Wales
I nearly left it late to stand for the OMRLP in Islwyn, South Wales with about a week to go before the deadline. I was a little dismayed to lose my BUM in the process. I registered as Baron von Magpie BUM, but the returning officer felt my BUM may cause offence to some of Islwyn's more sensitive voters. So I became Baron von Magpie on the ballot paper.
To my total surprise, friends and neighbours raised the £500 deposit in just over a week, with a few pounds left over to get some posters and leaflets printed up by a local printer and with the help of the most excellent Baron von Claptrap, standing in the Gower.
There followed many miles of putting up flyers and chatting to the locals, who by-and-large were very supportive. Best not to mention the 4-car pile up I caused when a driver was so busy watching me putting up posters they didn't notice the other 3 cars stopped at lights in front of them. Only one broken wrist. Oops!
On Election Day it was great to be able to vote for myself. Later that night I attended the count, accompanied by the Baroness who decided to dress for the occasion in a full sized chicken suit. As we walked into the count the looks were a mixture of puzzlement and disbelief followed by the look of realisation that the Loonies had arrived. I was extremely pleased to get 213 votes. Chris Evans, of Labour won the seat – but I loved the headline 'Evans wins again' as my real surname is also Evans! Can't wait for the Welsh Assembly elections next year so watch out , Baron von Magpie BUM WILL ride again!
Electoral Reform
Campaigners have been complaining that the Election was 'most disproportionate in history'
In a new analysis the Electoral Reform Society – which campaigns to change the voting system – has assessed how the make up of Parliament would have differed had other voting systems been used.
The research shows that under a different system UKIP could have won as many as 80 MPs and the Greens 20. UKIP received 3.9 million votes and the Greens 1.2 million, and they ended up with one MP each.
The loony party although very happy with the present system, do concede that under a different system where parties gained M.P,s by the number of votes, and adding up all the votes we gained in the election, we would actually end up with at least a LEG

Worship goes on after shooting
CORPUS CHRISTI - Corpus Christi's Islamic community cautiously continued Ramadan worship Saturday while investigators prowled the McArdle Road mosque's perimeter for clues to who shot through the door Friday.
Osama Bahloul, spiritual leader at The Islamic Center of South Texas, said he hopes the shots were accidental. Bahloul had a study class after lunch in his front office with seven colorfully draped young women.
"We hope this is the end of it," he said. "But we are genuinely concerned about our people. We have a large number of children here this month, and if he or she did this again someone could be killed."
The mosque's about 600 members are celebrating Ramadan, a month of dawn-to-dusk fasting, prayer in mosques and giving to the poor, which this year began at sunset Wednesday. Members have been advised to be aware of their surroundings, and Bahloul said the center will install video cameras as a security precaution.
Initial witness information reported two gunshots fired Friday, but investigators have found evidence of only one shot hitting the mosque, Cmdr. Jesse V. Garcia said as he picked at a hole in the rock siding outside the office prayer study. Officers focused their search for the bullet's origin along McArdle Road.
The bullet pierced the top aluminum frame of a glass entry door between 3:30 and 5 p.m. Friday and shattered an exit transom window about 10 inches higher than the entry hole at the other end of the central hallway.
"We're sure it's a high-caliber weapon, based on the damage," Garcia said. Investigators have found pieces of the bullet for testing, although police had no suspects as of Saturday afternoon.
Garcia said Saturday police had not determined whether to consider the incident a hate crime.
Four Corpus Christi police investigators searched flower beds across the street at Shores II Apartments and brushed boots through ditches seeking rifle shells, while FBI agent Jeremy Knudsen and three other investigators knocked on doors to interview tenants. Knudsen wouldn't comment, but a spokeswoman for the FBI in Austin, Patricia Villa Franca, said the FBI is adding $5,000 to the Crime Stoppers reward to push the total to $10,000 for information leading to an arrest.
"It's something we take seriously and some people have provided some information," Garcia said.
How to help
Call 888-TIPS with any information on this incident. The FBI and Crime Stoppers are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Marlow Bridge is a road traffic and foot bridge over the River Thames in England between the town of Marlow, Buckinghamshire and the village of Bisham in Berkshire. It crosses the Thames just upstream of Marlow Lock, on the reach to Temple Lock.
There has been a bridge on the site since the reign of King Edward III which was stated in around 1530 to have been of timber, though an original crossing to the Knights Templar of Bisham may date from 1309.[3] In 1642 this bridge was partly destroyed by a Parliamentarian army. In 1789 a new timber bridge was built by public subscription with a contribution from the Thames Navigation Commission to increase the headroom underneath.[3]
The current suspension bridge was designed by William Tierney Clark and was built between 1829 and 1832, replacing a wooden bridge further downstream which collapsed in 1828.[2] It is the only suspension bridge across the non-tidal Thames.[4] The Széchenyi Chain Bridge, spanning the River Danube in Budapest, was also designed by William Clark and it is a larger scale version of Marlow bridge.
In 1956–57 Marlow Bridge was restored and all of its chains were replaced.[5] It is a Grade I listed building.[5]
The bridge has a 3 tonne weight restriction and is used only by foot and local road traffic. Other traffic is carried by the Marlow By-pass Bridge.
