Replica M60, M60D, and M16 Rifles for Sale
For more information, call 770-359-7701 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com
Now offering quality replica M60 machine guns and M16 rifles for sale. These dummy weapons are produced from a combination of demilled and reproduction parts to build durable but affordable display pieces.
M60 Machine Gun
These replicas are constructed using a newly manufactured receiver trunion with demilled receiver and barrel components welded to it. An original butt stock with folding butt plate and sling swivel is attached to the rear of the receiver. A reproduction solid cast top cover is fixed to the top of the receiver. It opens to facilitate a belt of dummy ammo (not included). An original bipod is used (evidence of welding/grinding from reconstructing the demilled parts may be visible). The mounting pins for use with vehicle mounts are included standard on these M60s. Each M60 is tested fitted to a mount to ensure that it will fit when you receive it.
I feel that these are a good alternative to cast resin models which can be fragile and usually aren't ready to be vehicle mounted, or high priced replicas built from parts kits that can cost as much as $2,000-$3,000 or more. Each M60 I sell is shipped with a copy of an ATF letter stating the requirements for a "nonfunctional replica of the M60 machine gun". These are priced at just $1,195 each shipped.
M60C and M60D Machine Gun
M60C replicas (remote fired) and M60D replicas (spade grips) are also available.
Call 770-359-7701 or e-mail email@example.com for more information.
M60Ds are priced the same as standard models, $1,195 each shipped. E-mail firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
M16 Rifle
These realistic looking dummy rifles are assembled on a solid cast receiver. Original parts include the butt stock, pistol grip, hand guards, and a demilled barrel section from the front sight to the flash suppresser.
They are available with either A1 (triangular) $285 or A2 (round) hand guards $315. M16A1 and A2 prices include shipping.
M16A1 Replica Photos
M16A2 Replica Photos
"Rubber Duck" Training Rifles
These are tough molded urethane training rifles with steel barrels and reinforcements in the body of the weapon. They are just like the "rubber duck" training rifles used by the U.S. Military.
Many models available, including M16A2s, M4 carbines with fixed extended and retracted stocks, M4 carbines with working stocks, and M4 carbines with rails that are built to spec to mount optics and other accessories. Other models such as the AK-47 are also available.
Prices start at $225 each including shipping within the continental 48 states. Additional shipping rates apply to Alaska, Hawaii, and outside of the U.S. MINIMUM ORDER 20 PIECES Call 770-359-7701 or e-mail email@example.com for more information.
This is not a full time business for the manufacturer and these replicas are produced on a limited basis. Depending on the current inventory and which model you request, it may take a few weeks to build it. Most of the original components used in these weapons (M16 barrels and front sights or M60 receiver sections and bipod legs, for example) will show minor pitting from poor storage after being demilled. These parts are refinished and not rusty when shipped.
NOTE: To comply with government laws, all replicas manufactured now will be shipped with the muzzle or flash suppresser painted orange! These replicas are available in the U.S. only. Additional shipping charges may apply to AK or HI. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to comply with state and local laws or ordinances pertaining to ownership, use, and display of replica weapons.
If you would like more information or want to purchase one of these dummy weapons, e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com or call Joe at 770-359-7701.
Thanks, Joe

Last Shot: My Bloody Valentine Helps Me Forget the Pain of Cancer
While I would have liked to have ventured to the other stages, I staked out a spot on the main stage and took in the psychedelic swirls of MGMT who brought out Henry Winkler to play the cowbell. Once they finished, my excitement grew as I was ready to have my eardrums shredded by My Bloody Valentine. Security guards kept offering ear plugs to the crowd who may or may not be aware of the extensive noise and feedback storm that punctuates the ending of their set.
One of the unfortunate events of the evening was that My Bloody Valentine didn't allow any form of photography, which was devastating but made me thankful that I shot them at the Santa Monica Civic Center and Coachella in 2010. The woozy pitch-bending notes of "I Only Said" took me into another world. In a majority of concerts that I attend, I'm able to keep a form of composure. This wasn't the case as I couldn't contain myself when the roaring guitars of "When You Sleep" blasted through the speakers.
A trio of new songs from their latest album m b v kept me floating and my mind off how ill I had been feeling for the past couple of weeks. "Only Shallow" was so loud that the amplification system for the festival couldn't handle the noise and began cutting out as the bass and drums were absent from the mix. I continued to air tremolo strum along with the rest of the songs until the final epic conclusion of "You Made Me Realise" and the sound of jet engines that seemingly get added to the mix of noise and feedback.
Considering that My Bloody Valentine rarely tour these days, I was glad I overcame my illness for a few moments of sheer sonic bliss. It pains me that I couldn't have spent both days at FYF Fest with my fellow photographers in the trenches but I figured it was smarter to conserve my energy and see My Bloody Valentine. It would have been easier to stay at home but I refuse to let cancer dictate how I live my life.

Moss Vase Filler 1 1
soothing, naturalistic decor I love the look of moss, especially in the summer as it gives a feeling of coolness to contrast the heat outside. This is real moss from what I can tell - or a very convincing look-alike, which is saying a lot coming from me. I simply dumped the contents into an apothecary jar, keeping the pieces grouped by color for a layered look; with the exception of one odd piece that didn't go with the rest. My only concern is sustainability, as these are presumably collected from wild places, but I like this fill enough to buy more. July 23, 2014

"Fasnacht" and Tirol's Mask-Carvers
ImstImst on the map
As the peals of the midday bells die away on the Sunday, this unique procession shapes up. The audience are driven back by characters wielding a water-pistol (the "Spritzer"), a round sack (the "Sackner") and a powder-puff from a girl's handbag (the "Kübelemaje"). The witches sport sweeping wide skirts and pigtails. They raise their brooms over their heads and accompany their dance with barking cries. Then the main figures in this riotous assembly appear - the "Roller" and "Scheller". Sporting giant head-dresses, they dance the "Gang'l" together. As they do so, they strike out a rhythm on the large bells. When this sound booms out, accompanied by the silvery shimmer of the small bells sported by the "Roller", everyone holds their breath and a supreme moment in the carnival fun is reached.
Your gaze is drawn to the masks - highly expressive artistic masterpieces. And they are simply beautiful. The mature, striking masculinity of the "Scheller", with his darker skin-tone, beard and bushy eyebrows, and the light, youthful playfulness of the "Roller" with feminine eyes, rosy cheeks and a smiling mouth are clearly differentiated from one another. Often characterised as the turning-point of the old winter and the young spring, these masked plays probably date back to the Baroque love of games and the masquerades performed by the church and the nobility, which have since been adopted by the regular citizens and farmers.
Nowhere are these traditions supported with such a passion as in the Tirol, regardless of whether it is the "Matschgerer" figures between Innsbruck and Hall or the "Schleicherlaufen" in Telfs, the "Blochziehen" in Fiss, the "Wampelerreiten" in Axams or the "Schellenlaufen" in Nassereith. All have their own way of doing things, their own particular representation of a test of strength and their own wild celebration, accompanied by typical figures. But they all wear masks and outrageous costumes.
Viewed in that light, behind every mask there's a woman. And not just because they customise the make-up and costumes to fit the men sporting them. In Nassereith, the masks are even carved by a woman. Irene Krismer, now 71, is a seamstress by training, but her father encouraged her to carve souvenirs like geese and deer, showing her all the holds and each cut. And because her first piece was so successful, she really enjoyed her carving. Carving masks is something she taught herself later in life. Today, pieces by Irene hang in the Nassreith Fasnachtsmuseum and are worn with pride for the Fasnacht celebrations.

Workaround lets iPhone users share apps
updated 05:55 pm EDT, Wed July 23, 2008
Workaround lets iPhone use
Developer Melvin Rivera has posted a workaround for sharing iPhone apps on his All Forces blog. The simple workaround takes advantage of Apple's Fairplay, which allows users to sync up to five computers with each iTunes account, along with unlimited iPhones and iPods. Although the process is initially time consuming -- and maybe a bit confusing -- it's simply a matter of syncing an iPhone with a computer that is registered to use both iTunes accounts.
Rivera says the idea was born of frustration when he couldn't share iPhone apps with his wife because they have separate iTunes accounts -- or so he thought. Rivera claims the workaround allows a perfectly legal exchange of apps between two iPhones. He says it should work on Windows machines, although he hasn't tried it.

What good the pink ribbon?
The huge PR behind breast cancer awareness may raise the profile of a dread disease, but mislead wom
The huge PR behind breast cancer awareness may raise the profile of a dread disease, but mislead wom
by Alice O'Keeffe Published
October has been Breast Cancer Awareness Month and a huge, well-meaning PR machine has lurched into action. Armies of eager celebrities were marshalled, trotting down catwalks and posing for posters. The glitterati have hobnobbed at charity balls. Magazines have launched "pink issues" devoted to the theme, and supermarkets showcased their caring, sharing natures by flogging specially commissioned pink products.
Breast cancer gets huge amounts of publicity because the campaign is well-organised and awash with celebrities, providing newspapers with a great excuse to print photos of lithe young women wearing promotional T-shirts. And it also has the advantage of not being a disease associated with poverty - in fact, it affects people from higher-income backgrounds more than the poor. It's not hard to see why, say, bowel cancer or boring old heart disease fail to match its media profile.
In the midst of the glitz, glamour and media hullabaloo, one rather important question goes unanswered: where does awareness of breast cancer actually get us? Talk to doctors about the effects of the awareness month and a complex picture emerges. Encouraging high level of disease awareness has some negatives for public health, which should be weighed against its benefits.
The first problem is that it is difficult to get media-based health campaigns to target the right people. Michael Fitzpatrick, an east London GP and author of a book on health awareness, says: "I get young women coming into the surgery on a regular basis who are worried about breast lumps. They are actually more likely to be hit by a bus on the way to the surgery than they are to have a breast tumour. But the message they get is that they are at risk, and that they should be constantly on the lookout for symptoms."
Age is the single most important factor in calculating the risk of breast cancer, but this simple fact is often obscured by media campaigns. Women below the age of 25 have a one in 15,000 chance of getting the disease, rising to one in ten by the time they are 85. "When the press picks up on breast cancer stories, it will always choose to feature young, sexy women, when in fact they are a tiny minority of the cases," says Diana Jupp of Breast Cancer Care. "In fact, this year we have chosen older women, such as [the actress] Honor Blackman, to front the campaign, and we're trying to target it carefully for an older audience."
The benefits of awareness are far from clear-cut. Nobody knows what causes breast cancer or how to prevent it. Advice offered to nervous women focuses on giving up alcohol, keeping their weight down and having a baby before 20. None of these, however, is foolproof. Indeed, in a recent article on the "breast cancer crisis", the Guardian concluded that the underlying cause of breast cancer was "the way we live in the rich, ambitious and sophisticated northern half of the globe".
We are often told that awareness will help women to detect the disease when it is still at an early stage. Yet recent research by the World Heath Organisation showed that women who regularly examine their own breasts for cancer almost always miss real tumours, and often raise the alarm unnecessarily. The WHO now says that doctors "should not recommend screening by self-examination and physical examinations of the breast". So with a terminological wriggle of which new Labour would be proud, women are now advised to be "breast aware". This is rather nebulously defined as "becoming familiar with your breasts and the changes they go through throughout your life". "We no longer tell women to sit down and formally examine themselves once a month," explains Jupp. "But they should still know what signs to be looking out for." Women might be forgiven for finding the messages a little confusing.
The debate over mammography, or breast-screening using X-rays, reveals further difficulties with early detection. At present, the NHS encourages women over 50 to have a mammogram every three years, and says it saves 300 lives per year as a result. Some doctors argue that this justifies the investment. Dr Sunita Shrotria, a breast disease specialist at Ashford and St Peter's Hospitals, told me: "We can't be too paranoid. I think women can handle anxiety, and it is always justified by those who are treated and cured."
But there are voices of dissent. Critics point out that, to save one life, you need to screen 1,250 women over ten years, at enormous cost and with all the attendant risks of misdiagnosis. Professor Michael Baum, a breast cancer specialist who helped set up the NHS screening programme, later criticised it fiercely for encouraging false alarms, overtreatment and needless mastectomies. He argues that investing in treatment has been 200 times more effective in saving lives than the screening programme. "It is galling how the political spin from government agencies suggests that the best way of reducing deaths from breast cancer lies in trawling through the asymptomatic population," Baum wrote in the British Medical Journal.
The truth is that screening, and disease awareness in general, serve some rather powerful interests. Health is one of the few issues that continue to engage voters. Getting people to worry about disease and attend health screenings creates a sense that the government is intervening positively in their lives.
"I see it as a two-sided thing," says Fitzpatrick. "There's a drive from above, from the government, which wants to make health a central feature of policy, and from the medical establishment, which wants publicity. On the other side, there's a popular resonance. People don't find screening and endless tests intrusive - they want to get involved."
Breast cancer is one in a huge number of similar health campaigns. By the end of October, we had had Lupus Awareness Month, Stroke Awareness Week, Babyloss Awareness Week, World Mental Health Day, International Herpes Week, BackCare Awareness Week and World Osteoporosis Day - and those happened in that month alone. Over the course of the year, similar campaigns will be organised for psoriasis, Alzheimer's, male cancer, cancer among children, ovarian cancer, eczema, and many other unpleasant and life-threatening ailments. "We rarely hear the term 'hypochondria' these days," Fitzpatrick observes. "People see it as a virtuous state of awareness of health problems."
The irony of all this is that, generally, it is the people who are least likely to die prematurely who worry most about disease. One GP remarks: "Poor people, who often have good reason to worry about their health, don't, no matter what you say. And the middle classes, who are basically very healthy, worry inordinately." This is borne out by research from the Nobel prizewinning economist Amartya Sen, who compared health and perception of health in America and India. He found that in areas of rural India where there is very short life expectancy, people considered themselves to be ill less often than people did in the United States. This tendency is only exacerbated by media campaigns, which encourage the chattering classes increasingly to corner more of their doctors' time and NHS resources.
It is difficult to accept that illness and death are inevitable for all of us, particularly at a time when we tend to live long and healthily. By buying into the media hype, however, we are compromising this quality of life with unnecessary worry.

Tunisia's Ruling Islamists Agree to Fresh Elections
The Islamist party which leads the government of Tunisia has agreed in principle to a plan for new elections, which could bring an end to the political crisis which has gripped the country for a month.
The moderate Islamist Ennahda party which leads the government of Tunisia has come under mountain criticism for trying to impose an Islamist agenda, for failing to tackle Islamist terrorist who have carried out several high profile political assassinations as well as other attacks, and for mismanaging the economy. Thousands have taken to the streets to call for the government to step down, and the fall of the Islamist government of Egypt - which had faced similar criticism – only served to increase the pressure on Ennahda.
The UGTT trade union federation, which has been serving as a mediator between Ennahda and the secular opposition, has put forward a plan which would see the government step down in favour of a technocratic interim cabinet which would lead the country into fresh elections. Ennahda has rejected this plan in the past, but has now accepted in principle and will enter negotiations this week.
"We accept the UGTT initiative in principle to begin the dialogue (with the opposition)," Rached Ghannouchi, the chairman of the Ennahda party, told journalists following a meeting with UGTT Secretary General Hussein Abassi.

Full detailed profile on Asher Pike Played by Trent Garrett on All My Children Daytime Soap Opera.
Real Name: Trent Garrett
Colby breaks away from her kiss with Asher at the mansion and tells him he shouldn't have kissed her. He thought they were both doing it. She reminds him she is in love with Damon and makes it clear he can't cross the line again. Damon walks in wondering what's going on. Colby tells him Asher had it out with Caleb. Damon tells him whatever goes down, he and Colby have his back. Colby suggests she and Damon get something to eat and they leave, but Colby guiltily looks back at Asher.
JR returns home to find Caleb waiting for him. They argue and JR offers to leave Asher alone if he drops Marissa's custody case. Caleb will do no such thing and threatens that he almost burned this house down once. JR wonders what Adam ever did to him, but Caleb just says JR doesn't know who he is messing with and warns him away from using his son. After Caleb is gone, Asher returns to the room. JR pumps him for information on Caleb, but Asher accuses him of using him. He thinks once JR's done, he will throw him out. JR confirms he is using him, but declares Asher is using him as well. He vows not to throw Asher away and declares they are in this together. Asher thanks him and JR tells him they are family and that will never change.
In front of the reporters at Chandler, Caleb rips into Caleb. Erica tries to get Asher to calm down and suggests they have this conversation in private, but JR steps in and says they should have it right there. Erica appeals to the reporter to turn off his cameras, saying she'll help his career. He agrees and leaves with his cameraman. Asher asks to be alone with Caleb and tells his father he doesn't get to ignore him anymore. Caleb wonders why he didn't just come and tell him the truth. Asher responds he was waiting for Caleb to feel how he felt his entire life. Caleb thought he was doing what was best for him, but Asher isn't swayed and accuses him of killing his mother. Caleb points out he doesn't know all the facts. As they argue, Asher's leg gives out and JR's is there to help him, as they get on the elevator.
JR takes Asher back to the mansion and tells him they can splash the footage all over the place sending Caleb back to West Virginia. Colby walks by and orders her brother to leave him alone. Colby thinks Asher should still be in the hospital, but JR tells her how brilliantly Asher put Caleb on notice that he can't screw with him to get what he wants. Colby retorts JR is doing the exact same thing. JR leaves for work and Colby asks if Asher was hurt by the whole ordeal. He thought about how he would handle this for years, but it didn't really go as planned. He thought it would be better, but he just feels the same. Colby sits next to him and hugs him. When they pull back from the embrace, they kiss.
As Colby sits by his bedside, Asher slowly wakes up. JR enters and Colby leaves to get the doctor, who says Asher will be fine. JR apologizes for how this ended up and implies Caleb pushed him. Colby reminds them no one knows what happened, but tells Asher Caleb knows he is his son. JR tells him Colby stayed with him all night and Asher thanks her. He asks if Caleb came by, but JR tells him to take look around because Caleb is not hanging around. Colby thinks he and Caleb can work things out now, but Asher reminds her Caleb killed his mom so that will never happen. JR knows he owes Asher and he won't forget. He leaves for a meeting and Asher asks Colby why she stayed with him. She reminds him he saved her life before and they engage in flirtatious banter before she leaves to get some food.
Caleb walks by Asher's room, but his eyes are closed. Caleb leaves as Asher opens his eyes, just missing seeing his father. Colby returns and Asher again expresses his appreciation for her staying with him. She thinks he needs to get the whole story from Caleb, but he just want to make him suffer. He tells her to go home so they both can get some rest. He thanks her for, "You know," and she says, "I know." As soon as she leaves, Asher tries to get out of bed.
Colby and JR visit an unconscious Asher at the hospital. JR tries to reassure a worried Colby that he will be fine. Colby chastises her brother for getting Asher involved in this mess in the first place and says they have to take care of him because they are all he's got.
After Caleb has words with JR out in the hallway about Asher, he sees Colby sitting by his son's bedside and walks away. Colby talks to Asher and apologizes for not seeing what he was going through. Damon joins her, worried because she didn't call. She says she didn't want to leave Asher. She updates Damon on Asher being Caleb's son and Damon is unhappy that he lied to them and dragged them into his mess. Colby defends him and they fight about it. Damon wants to go home, but she won't leave because Asher doesn't have anyone else. Damon wants to at least go get something to eat and Colby goes with him.
In JR's office, Caleb demands to know where AJ is. Asher gets snide wondering if he'll kill him if he doesn't get want he wants because that's his style. Caleb warns he will find AJ and then come back to deal with him. Asher follows him to the elevator, taunting him. Caleb doesn't want to listen to Asher so he heads to the stairs. Asher of course follows and continues to badger him. Caleb grabs him wondering what he wants from him and in the midst of their confrontation, Asher falls down a flight of stairs. Erica finds Asher at the bottom of the stairs and a shaken Caleb explains what happened. Erica assures him they will get Asher the best possible care.
After an ambulance brings Asher to the hospital, Erica brings Caleb aside to tell him Asher is his son. He doesn't believe it, but gets emotional as he explains that he gave Asher away after Sonia died and he never thought he'd see him again. He recalls how he ended things with Sonia but didn't know she was pregnant. Sonia found him at a mine that was set to blow to tell him about their baby. After the explosion, he found her, delivered the baby and she died. Palmer found a family to look after Asher until he was ready, but Caleb just holed up at the mountain. Caleb later stands outside Asher's room, where Erica urges him to sit with his son. Caleb says he can't.

More biased garbage coming from the PD.
Biased??? Garbage??? Yet you keep reading.
How thoughtless of me. I had know idea you were such a worldly scholar. Your masterful use of "Fricken" conveys your vast intelligence. Please forgive me and my trespasses. I shall never throw stones again.
So, during your travels did you set fire to everything you saw or just those things you didn't understand? You mindless Philistine.
Funkadelic, Voice, and Tissot, please explain why these actions offend YOU. Why does the simple act of chaging the name of something (and I'l bet the rest of morning donut none of you have ever heard of Squaw Rock or Henry Church until this) cause you to put pen to paper to vent your frustrations? I agree we have priorities right now that should be addressed, but not all of us have a vote in congress, or carry a weapon in Iraq, so we do go about our lives surviving the best we can. Some people have the job removing offensive language from public places. So what.
I doubt if any of you out there have made any efforts to "better the common good" so stop focusing your energies on apposing these actions and do something good. Volunteer, give to charity, or simply shut up.
goeffchurch - you are wrong and listen to too much Glenn Beck. Do the research http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_Reinvestment_Act
Most of the subprime lenders did not fall under the CRA and were not subject to government scrutiny. It was created in 1977 (before the term Liberal was used for Democrats!) to combat "redlinning" which, if you were alive back then, sounds like you would have NOT been subject to.
This action happends all the time. NYSE has been doing it since Black Monday.
Oh, and Happy2move, sounds like you've been a puppet a long time

School violence, the threat of violence, and harassment continues to worry educators locally, nationally and internationally.
School violence, the threat of violence, and harassment continues to worry educators locally, nationally and internationally.
A funny thing happened to the College of William & Mary (Va.) on its way to a more efficient way to determine each of its undergraduate students' home address.
College campuses are typically beautiful places. Tree-lined walkways, verdant quads, and stately buildings make for a pleasant place to take a walk.
As far back as 1995, Sacred Heart University (Conn.) was requiring all full-time undergraduates to purchase a laptop; as early as 2002, Sacred Heart students, faculty, and staff enjoyed campuswide Wi-Fi.
Student-athletes face the daunting task of keeping up with their studies while also devoting considerable time to practicing, competing, and traveling.
Faculty and staff at every college and university in the United States like to talk about the real-world, hands-on education it imparts to its students.
It wasn't an idea mentioned at a conference or a snippet noted in a magazine or a suggestion from a listserv that sparked Jamie Belinne's brainstorm. It was the time she spent waiting in her doctor's office during an illness six years ago.
There were any number of reasons why The George Washington University needed to automate the way it paid stipends to the thousands of students who work there as tutors, teachers, researchers, or facilitators.
It wasn't as if the admissions office at Boston University did nothing to keep from drowning in paper, working 12-hour days and weekends, and falling behind on customer service.
Even in these digital times, undergraduate admissions remains a paper-laden discipline. Viewbooks, search pieces, postcards, catalogs, applications, and more need to be printed, enveloped, and mailed, a process not only costly but also inefficient.
Until recently, applicants to the University of North Carolina, Wilmington's Graduate School mailed in their applications, which were then walked—as in, physically carried—across campus to the school's 46 different programs for review.
Doors have locks, of course—both traditional and electronic locks.
Like many institutions, the University of St. Francis rolled out an online portal a few years ago in order to offer round-the-clock support and information to the entire campus community.
While the rest of the working world uses summer as a time to decamp to waterfront locales, college and university officials take advantage of quieter campuses to catch up on projects and prepare for the return of students.
With a web-based interface allowing for staffers across the institution to input information, officials at Central Methodist University, located in Fayette, Mo., figured that awarding scholarships would be a breeze.

NEW ORLEANS, La.--Rep. Ron Paul rode a wave of support from young activists to win a straw poll at the Republican Leadership Conference here, his latest title fueled by a group of rabidly loyal fans who have little use for the rest of the GOP field.
Paul took 612 votes out of the 1,542 ballots cast. Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman finished in second place with 382 ballots, while Rep. Michele Bachmann finished third with 191.
The straw poll, held at the annual gathering for thousands of Republican activists from across the South, lacked a serious push by any of the candidates considered the race's front-runners. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and Huntsman all passed on the chance to address 2,000 activists from 38 states who gathered here.
Another potential front-runner, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, was left off the straw poll ballot. He will address the conference later this afternoon.
Instead, the gathering has been dominated by second-tier contenders like Bachmann, Atlanta businessman Herman Cain, former Sen. Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich, the one-time Speaker of the House. Over the course of three days, those candidates brought the crowd repeatedly to its feet.
Cain finished fourth, with 104 ballots, followed by Romney (74), Gingrich (69), former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (41), Santorum (30), Pawlenty (18), former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson (10), former Louisiana Gov. Buddy Roemer (9) and Rep. Thad McCotter (2).
No candidate attracts the fanatic loyalty Paul does. Organizers brought in extra chairs during Paul's speech on Friday, and fans packed shoulder to shoulder waving signs and interrupting their hero with chants.
It's Paul's second strong showing at the annual gathering of southern conservative activists in a row. In 2010, Paul finished just a single vote behind Mitt Romney.

Hello there,
I decided to rework on my first mod, Orbital Wars, with this mod I add a new layer to the game.
Currently we have : Sub Sea Land Air
With this mod you will have : Sub Sea Land Air Orbital
What I plan for the first new Orbital Wars release
- New spaceships factory ( t1 t2 t3)
- New Orbital figthers (t1 t2 t3)
- New specialized spaceship (anti spacships/anti fighter/support) (1 for each tech level)
- New spacehips factory who can drop land unit from the orbital layer (t1 t2 t3)
- New anti spaceships defense (t1 t2 t3)
What I plan for the future of Orbital Wars :
- Satelite factory (t1 t2 t3)
- Satelite (radars/attack/defense)
- Specialized orbitals fighters (anti fighters/anti spaceships)
- News little spaceships (corvets or other)
I hope you will like what I will do
See you soon
Fix list : - T3 spaceships : cost increased - T3 spaceships : Experimental category removed - T2 orbital : now can't target air units Misc : Mod also...
UEF Alpha 1 In this alpha version you have - all uef spaceships, - all uef factories spaceships, - all uef orbitals figters, - all uef anti spaceships...
Orbital Wars Mod V1.01 : A small fix for Orbital Wars V1.00
In this relaese all spaceships are now Airs units, they can be attack by anti air units/structures.
When ever I download the mod and unzip then put it in my mods folder it doesn't show up in game any one know what is going on?
This video (two multibarrer) are superb! First class!
Can you add Sorian AI support?
i have no mods folder what do i do
So, I use a mod that added spaceships into the game, but in a different way. It adds them in as heavy support you can call in from the quantum gate, and they work as aircraft rather than high altitude, so they can shoot air and surface targets. This mod also added in a lot of other units, such as the Eagle Eye spy satellite (which does fly in high altitude and so can only be killed by anti satellite missiles which the ai never build) as well as a bunch of land units such as the grim reaper experimental that can do... Pretty much everything.
Anyway in the mod manager in game I believe the mod is called Normalis or Normalus. I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere on the internet though. That didn't turn into this by any chance did it? IDK I just discovered a hilarious bug XD
Highest Rated (4 agree) 10/10
This mod is simple and straight to the point. ADD MOTHER FECKING SPACE SHIPS! The addon is small and perfectly displays ingame what the mod does. The units are fine, looks bad ass, and looks polished and finalized. It is not a perfect ten, I feel but it would only be the nitpicking. Recommended. For those who like to combine mods, you should not miss the opportunity to get this mod. *SPOILER ALERT* All Space Ships for all factions (I assume for all factions) gives the player an extra factory and…

Is a travel system right for you?
It's common to see almost all new parents purchase some sort of travel system. Oftentimes you will see parents getting frustrated because they have purchased a car seat that barely fits in their car or they can be seen struggling to fit the stroller in their trunk. It's always a good idea to make sure you are buying a travel system that suits your needs and works well for you and your baby.
Choose the car seat first
You should first find a travel system that can easily fit inside your vehicle. They should be easy to install and use. Don't forget to look for a 5-point harness system for the car seat. You need one that will be reliable like a Chicco cortina travel system. The last thing you need is your car seat or stroller to break when you least expect it.
Second, choose your favorite travel system stroller
Travel system strollers come in an array of colors, shapes and sizes. For a girl, a pink convertible car seat would be most fitting. There are lightweight strollers, jogging strollers and full-size strollers that are packed with cool features. Before jumping the gun on a cheap stroller, consider where you will use it, it's folding mechanism, weight and whether it will be difficult to navigate through cramped areas.
Do you need a travel system at all?
A lot of experienced parents might not like travel systems because they can be bulky. Some would rather carry their baby in a backpack carrier or sling. There is no denying that you will need a car seat but you can easily manage without the combination of both a stroller and a car seat if you so desire.

Coat, hat, and jewelry designers need to see this film. I'm not kidding. The crafting is superb.
If you don't mind blood splattering battles, "Mongol" is a must for the colorful threats and insults between feuding warrior tribes. There's also an improbable lifelong love of a despot and his bride, social throat singing, and the interesting choice made by director Sergei Bodrov to portray tyrant Ghengis Khan in a sympathetic light.
If you are going to see just one Kazakh film ("Borat" doesn't count) in the Mongolian language, this should be it.
...an alternative Movie Pick, opening this week at Manhattan's Lincoln Plaza, is the beautiful and satisfying "The Grocer's Son" (Le fils de l'épicier), starring handsome Nicolas Cazalé. The Provençal countryside is so lush you can practically smell the lavendar fields, in this tale of a family relationships.
Opening June 6:
New York City, Sunshine Cinema and Lincoln Plaza Cinemas

1 pound
lean ground beef
1 (8 ounce) package
cream cheese
1 (10.75 ounce) can
condensed cream of chicken soup
1/4 cup
1/2 cup
1 (12 ounce) can
refrigerated biscuit dough
I made a few adjustments to this recipe. I added a can of cream of mushroom soup, a can of mushrooms, left out the milk, cream of chicken soup,and ketchup. I seasoned it with salt, pepper and a dash of seasoned salt. I cooked up some instant seasoned mashed potatoes, placed the potatoes in the bottom of a baking dish, topped the potatoes with the hamburger mixture and placed the biscuits on top and sprinkled the biscuits with shredded sharp cheddar cheese. I baked it at 350 until the biscuits were golden brown. It was very tasty after these adjustments. Somehow the cream of chicken soup and ketchup didn't sound like a good combo.
This dish was in one word disgusting! I cant understand how anyone likes it. I have never given a bad review but this was awful!
184 Ratings
We love this recipe! However, I use 1/4 cup of salsa instead of ketchup, brown the hamburger with some red pepper and use cream of mushroom soup.
Ok, so I got the basic concept from this recipe. I added dry onion soup mix as the hamburger was browning, and replaced the ketchup with Western Dressing. Instead of topping with biscuits, as we don't like "canned" ones, I prepared some instant mashed potatoes and topped the filling with that. I sprinkled the top with shredded MJ and cheddar cheese and french fried onions. I think this was a winner! Totally easy, and super adjustable!
I was not impressed with this recipe. It was edible but I didn't save the leftovers. Too much ketchup taste and it was just an odd mix of ingredients. It didn't look impressive either. Surprisingly the biscuits cooked well but everything else was so-so.
I thought the taste of the dish was very good but I would make some changes. First of all, I would used cream of mushroom soup instead cream of chicken. And maybe I would add 1 1/2 cans or 2 cans of the cream of mushroom soup. Secondly, I would add a can of green beans just to give it more substance. But overall the flavor was very good.
Super quick for a hot supper....my family loved this. I added some onion, fresh mushrooms and a tiny bit of garlic. Would recommend.
Very good. A kid pleaser. I did make a mashed potato bottom since I felt that it would be too much bread otherwise. It was awesome. I will make this many times.

All the latest on the newest little royal
The Welsh youngster is well on the road to success after sharing the stage with Lionel Richie and Jennifer Hudson at the tribute concert earlier in the week. An audience of a billion watched him perform Jackson 5 hit Who's Loving You

He so impressed Motown boss Berry Gordy (right), the music mogul said "I'd sign him tomorrow". Smokey Robinson was also bowled over. "Before I went on he said he'd never heard me sing before, but afterwards he kept saying, 'Wow'," reveals Shaheen

He missed out on the Britain's Got Talent crown, but singing schoolboy Shaheen Jafargholi looks likely to be the show's biggest success story.
After millions of people around the world tuned in to see him sing at Michael Jackson's memorial concert, the offers are flooding in. Industry experts estimate he stands to make £10 million before he turns 16.
The 12-year-old joined a bill of top artists at the concert, including Lionel Richie, Jennifer Hudson and Stevie Wonder, who complimented him on his vocal talents.
"I was introduced to him (Stevie) and he could have just said hello, but he was so nice to me. He told me I had an amazing voice. It was amazing," recalls Shaheen. "I was in his dressing room for ages playing games and messing around."
He also impressed Smokey Robinson, the writer of Jackson 5 hit Who's Loving You, which the Swansea-boon youngster performed at the memorial. "Before I went on he said he'd never heard me sing before, but afterwards he kept saying, 'Wow'," the thrilled youngster told the Sun.
There are unconfirmed reports Disney want to sign up Shaheen and that the Jacksons want him back on stage at another tribute concert at London's 02 arena on what would have been Michael's 51st birthday.
"My dream is being able to make albums and do concerts and make people happy by singing, the way Michael did," says Shaheen.
Now that looks to be a certainty. The rising star so impressed Motown legend Berry Gordy, who founded the world-famous label, he told TV host Larry King: "I have no idea who that is but I'd sign him tomorrow."

Editorial: Bill of Rights anniversary call echoed
While members of the nation's two major parties bicker and debate their way toward a showdown, today is a reminder of why many are independent of Democrats and Republicans.
For as long as we've been a country, debate has ensued about the powers of Congress. The Constitution is a mark of genius, still providing guidance and clarity more than 200 years past its origination.
The Bill of Rights, the first 10 of which were ratified today 221 years ago, has also stood the test of time. Libertarians tell us they've also been trampled on many times over since 1791 as well.
In drafting Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution, our Founders laid out the powers of Congress within the Legislative Branch. But before the Bill of Rights followed, states were already writing constitutions. Some added a state bill of rights to go with them. And so grew the argument, and mainly the struggle, for power.
A federal Bill of Rights document, in fact, was not even thought necessary. When Virginia became the 10th state to ratify, the Bill of Rights became part of the Constitution.
We would note that the two amendments not gaining ratification of the 12 proposed dealt with the number of representatives in the House, and compensation for representatives of the House and Senate. Representation, a core issue for our revolution, still burns fires today.
Another issue not leaving anytime soon is debate on jurisdiction of federal and state laws. Last week, marijuana laws in Colorado and Washington that would seem to violate federal laws went into effect.
Court dates seem likely to decide if federal or state laws rule.
Government is big, far bigger than we could ever have imagined. There is little to no doubt, along the way from the 1700s to today, Congress has overstepped the Tenth Amendment — powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
Our Founders wanted checks and balances for the people. Politicians have stretched the boundaries, and in some cases, broken them.
On this anniversary date, we echo the call for government to stay within the limits of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama will host a White House summit Thursday on expanding college opportunities.
Leaders from colleges, nonprofit organizations, foundations, state governments and businesses also have been invited to share ideas on increasing opportunities for low-income and disadvantaged students at the daylong summit. According to the Washington Post, more than 100 college and university presidents are expected to attend.
The president has expressed concern that the cost of higher education has become unrealistic for too many families, placing unbearable debt burdens on students. He has proposed rewarding schools that hold down costs and that make sure that more poor students complete their education.

(Press conference following NATO informal ministerial meeting in Birmingham, England)
Cohen: This meeting comes at an extremely important time in NATO's history. First, the decision of the Yugoslav people to vote out Slobodan Milosevic offers the hope of freedom, peace and prosperity in the Balkans. In Belgrade yesterday, President Kostunica promised "a wave of democratic change" and other steps to end Yugoslavia's isolation from Europe. Every defense minister at this meeting pledged that his government is willing to offer appropriate help to Yugoslavia, and the EU has already started dismantling sanctions.
Although many problems remain in the Balkans, it is now possible to imagine a future zone of stability from the Atlantic to the Urals. In the meantime, NATO must continue its work for peace as Bosnia and Kosovo prepare for elections this fall.
For the last five years, troops led by NATO have given the people of Bosnia a chance to live in peace and begin to heal the wounds of war. For the last year we have provided the same opportunity to the people of Kosovo. The skill with which NATO-led troops are performing their tasks shows that the alliance is flexible, adaptive and relevant to the security challenges facing Europe in the post Cold War era.
That brings me to the second reason why this is an important time in NATO's history. In the 10 years following the reunification of Germany, most countries, including the United States, have realized a peace dividend by reducing forces and cutting defense budgets. Now those trends are beginning to change. All NATO nations realize that a force can't be credible unless it is capable. It must be able to move quickly, perform effectively and support itself with the best possible intelligence and logistics. The combination of NATO's Defense Capabilities Initiative and the European Security and Defense Program [ESDP] give members of the alliance and the EU an opportunity to plan and work together to create a more modern defense structure. This is why the United States strongly supports the European Security and Defense Program. As EU members meet the headline goal of creating a rapidly deployable and sustainable combat force, it will also enhance NATO's capability.
At our informal meeting I stressed the need for regular meeting of NATO and EU ministers to review our cooperative approaches to building security and preventing conflicts that effect the Euro-Atlantic community. We also discussed ways to combine NATO and EU security planning in a way that will increase capability rather than merely duplicate effort. This is not a time for NATO to congratulate itself for progress in the Balkans; it is time to prepare the Atlantic alliance for a future that could require deterrence, warfighting or peacekeeping. I will now take your questions.
Q: Are you satisfied with the arrangements now, you made for the participation of the non-EU NATO countries in ESDP, and I was particularly interested in Turkey?
Cohen: Well, as you know, this was an informal meeting. No decisions were made. I, along with others, offered a number of what I believe to be constructive proposals to make sure that we have a clear, coherent, cooperative, and common proposal, for security planning, and to be able to carry out those operations in a coordinated and cooperative fashion. I know that some have interpreted my prepared statement as somehow being a divergent from the U.S. position, it is not. What we have said is, we want to see and support a European Security Defense Identity, but what we want to make sure is, that we also, all of the NATO members, measure up to the commitments made at the Washington summit of having increased capabilities, the so-called DCI [Defense Capabilities Initiative], and that the progress made and the programs that are pursued by the Europeans and their ESP are consistent with that goal, so that we do not have separate capabilities, in terms of being inconsistent and non-compatible. But that they are, in fact, coordinated so that they can meet their NATO goals identified in the DCI, as well as the EU headline goals, so that we have compatibility. And, we also have one set of planners. What we don't want to see is a separate planning bureaucracy established that is independent and separate from that of NATO itself. So, this is a position that is consistent with what I have advocated before; that the U.S. supports ESDIODP [European Security Defense Identity or Defense Policy], provided it is consistent with NATO requirements and responsibilities.
Q: Two questions, if I may, on Kosovo and Yugoslavia. Firstly, the EU has moved quite swiftly to dismantle sanctions and to end the isolation on Belgrade. What specific steps is the United States likely to take in the same vain? And secondly how much of a break on developing normal ties between the international community in Belgrade is going to be a continuing failure by regime there to hand over Mr. Milosevic to the International Tribunal?
Cohen: President Clinton, as you know, has made some public statements. He has talked to President Kostunica on Sunday and they had a very good conversation in terms of President Kostunica's desire to take advantage of this opportunity to transform his country into a democratic country. We would expect the President to consult very closely, and very quickly with Congress, and that the sanctions that are directed toward the people of Yugoslavia would be removed, those dealing, certainly, with oil and infrastructure and other types that directly impact on the people. We want to provide as much encouragement as we can to the people, in terms of, economic support and redevelopment. At the same time, keep and maintain those sanctions that have been applied against Milosevic and his cronies. So, I think there will be some selectivity there, but basically, trying to re-enforce the aspirations of the people of Yugoslavia.
Secondly, you asked the question of basically of war criminals. In essence, there is no walking away from the past. That the people of Yugoslavia will have to face up to the responsibility if there is going to be a democratic nation, and if it's going to have democratic institutions, then an inherent part of that means it must hold people accountable for their actions. That includes, both present, future, but also, past. And so, we fully expect that Mr. Milosevic will have to be held accountable for the actions he has taken or ordered, and remain accountable in The Hague.
Q: I want to ask you about the Middle East and I think a lot of other people would like to as well. What are your thoughts are, specifically, regarding on what the problem is or could spread beyond the bounds of what is happening at the moment. And weather you are going to get involved with diplomacy over the next few days trying to find a resolution.
Cohen: I don't think I will be involved in diplomacy. We do have a separation here between the State Department and Defense on this specific issue. That while the secretary of State and I communicate frequently and try to coordinate our activities, diplomacy is best left to the president and to our diplomats, rather than to the Defense Department. So, we will obviously stay in close touch with the State Department, with the president, in terms of his communications with Prime Minister Barak and Chairman Arafat, with President Mubarak, and others. But, President Clinton has remained very much involved and engaged in trying to cool the passions that are burning so high right now; and, hopefully, get the parties to get back to a bargaining table and off the streets with violent conduct. So, Secretary Albright and the President will be actively engaged, and have been, and I will expect to stay in communication with them, but I will not be personally involved in any diplomacy.
Q: -- a lot of people are talking about now.
Cohen: The danger is it will spread. And we have seen that it can erupt very quickly and spread rapidly across many borders. There is a danger that if this goes unchecked, we can see wider conflict with many more nations involved and that would be devastating for all concerned. So, there is a real interest in getting the parties back to the bargaining table, and to pursue peace, and to take the violence off the streets.

Pable Picasso once made a wonderful handwritten list of the artists he recommended for the historic 1913 Armory show, and incorrectly spelt the name of his contemporary Marcel Duchamp. Psychologists say that obsessive compulsive list makers, many who work in the creative industries, are trying to create an illusion of control in otherwise chaotic lives.
