I love your hair, keep it long, although even if you did cut it you'd still be super hot!
- December 6, 2011 at 5:32 PM
I say chop it! You only live once, hair grows back!!
- December 6, 2011 at 6:00 PM
You would look awesome both ways! From my experience, cutting all of your hair off is such a cathartic experience. And, it's just hair...it grows back. If you don't like it, it'll be long again soon. Have fun with it!

I have only grown my hair long once in my adult life....its always been very short. After I grew it out, I never wanted to chop it again...except for one day. I got a wild idea. i chopped it all off into a vvvery cropped pixie. Its been short ever since. I have tried to grow it...and failed. Finally I have started to grow it long for real. Its going to take a really long time. Its been three months and my hair is just starting to graze the bottom of my ears. Think about it super long because it takes a long time to grow it out again. You look pretty no matter what (seriously...if they bottled up your adorableness they could sell it for millions of american dollars!)...but I always look at your hair as a motivation for growing out mine. Just sayin! Hearts, Janna Lynn

I have never had short hair. This is because I am a huge wimp. Although I think your long hair is super gorgeous, if you did chop it, I think you'd look equally as rad.

I love the shaved part but I also loooove your long wavy hair! It's an inspiration. Short hair can be hella fun, though ;) And hair grows back.

I'm way behind on this, but I would like to say keep it long. Just get a different cut or something. Short hair is fun for 2 weeks and then I felt like a boy and I've been growing it out for forever.

Why did you stop me?
Moving violations, such as speeding, failure to signal turns, running traffic lights, are the most common reasons a vehicle is stopped.
License Plate or Equipment Violations are other reasons a vehicle may be stopped. It is not uncommon for a driver to be in violation of a law without knowing it. It is your responsibility to know the laws governing driving privileges.
Criminal Investigation often involves searching for a "get-a-way" car. Your vehicle may resemble the description of a suspect vehicle.
Excessive Noise from a Car. Factory sound systems can produce music loud enough for you to be arrested. If your stereo can be heard 50 feet or more from your car, you are in violation of the law. Excessive noise is one of the top three priorities of the community.
Guns and Drugs. Officers have a duty to always be looking to remove illegal guns and drugs from the street to make the community safer. Without a permit, it is illegal to transport guns in the passenger area of cars. The officer may ask if you have weapons or drugs.

Jennifer Aniston—Leprechaun
Before Friends, Jennifer Aniston found herself struggling with some pretty terrible film roles. Her first role, though, playing the lead in the camp-fest that is the original Leprechaun, is so memorable for just how terrible it all is. The performance and the film itself were panned by critics, but the movie has become a cult classic since.

WOS Photos: Krakowski & Her Guys Get Awards
Editorial Staff • West End • 3 Mar 2006
Speaking to Whatsonstage.com, Krakowski said: "When I came over from the US, everyone started telling me about Whatsonstage.com and the Awards and how it was a really big deal - and then your party, wow! Everybody was there, all the top directors and actors, it was fabulous. So I am really pleased to have won one of these. It is great that it is voted for by the public, too, that is very cool. They have something like this on Broadway, but I don't think they give you a trophy or anything. This is a really cool award."
She added: "It is blowing my mind to have won the Whatsonstage.com Award and the Olivier as well. I had such a good time just playing the role and to win something for it as well, for something that has been one of the best years I've ever spent, is amazing. It's overwhelming. We all just had the best time doing the show."
Krakowski's Theatregoers' Choice Award was one of four overall for Michael Grandage's production of Frank Loesser's Broadway classic. It also scooped Best Actor in a Musical for Ewan McGregor who collected his prize a few weeks ago, Best Supporting Actor in a Musical for Martyn Ellis and Best Musical Revival. Whatsonstage.com also recently paid visits to Ellis and director Michael Grandage to present them with their awards.
At the Piccadilly Theatre, where he is continuing in the role of Nicely Nicely Johnson, Ellis said: "I am absolutely delighted. I can see I was in a very close category, against some great actors, so I am very pleased. As I left the theatre each night, I sometimes had members of the audience come up to me to tell me that they had voted for me, which was lovely. I think I was really lucky to get the part, it is such a great cast. Michael Grandage really reinvented this musical and it works very well."
He continued: "I was going to be leaving the show in March but have decided to stay on partly because I am enjoying it so much and partly because Neil Morrissey is joining the cast and he is a mate. He said he'd give me free membership to his club if I stayed. I asked Clive Rowe if he ever got bored playing Nicely Nicely (in the 1997 NT revival) and he said he would have played the part forever if they'd let him. I can see what he means. Getting that reaction night after night for 'Sit Down You're rocking the Boat', you can't beat it."
Grandage took a break from rehearsals for his premiere production of Mark Ravenhill's The Cut, which has just opened this week at the Donmar Warehouse starring Ian McKellen, to accept the Best Musical Revival prize. He told Whatsonstage.com: "We're delighted to win the Whatsonstage.com Theatregoers' Choice Award for Guys and Dolls because it was – and continues to be – a really happy production to work on and it's always nice to get an endorsement from members of the public for something you enjoy doing. Also, it means that it's an endorsement for all the work that a lot of people have put into it over this last year, so thank you."
Guys and Dolls is currently booking until 2 September 2006. From Monday (6 March), Adam Cooper and Sally Ann Triplett will take over as Sky Masterson and Miss Adelaide with Neil Morrissey as Nathan Detroit and Kelly Price as Sarah Brown (See News, 7 Feb 2006).

2011 Noir Festival
The New School >
Events >
The New School Arts Festival is a first—a cultural showcase reflecting the artistic and intellectual energy of the entire university. Each festival will explore a single theme by presenting works from genres with an artistic home at The New School, including design, drama, film, literature, music, and critical theory. Each festival will feature renowned guest artists and theorists, discussion of contemporary criticism, and original work created by New School students and presented at festival events all around campus.
The theme of our first arts festival is Noir, a cinematic style of shadowy expressiveness that had its heyday in the 1930s and 1940s. Coined by a French critic in 1946, the term film noir refers to movies depicting a morally ambiguous world of cynical private eyes, lonely gangsters, and femme fatales. Since then, the influence of noir has been felt in areas ranging from fashion design to fine art, graphic art to fiction, suggesting the alienation and disorientation of modernism through stark silhouettes, sexual frankness, stylized emotion, and the absence of sentimentality. Join The New School community in an exploration of noir in a festival of iconic films, hard-boiled storytelling, graphic art, and illustration inspired by this uniquely 20th century style.
The event features renowned artists and critics Frances McDormand, Todd Haynes, Marc Ribot, Guy Maddin, Mary Gaitskill, Robert Pinsky, Greil Marcus, Luc Sante, Terry Teachout, Paul Moravec, Frank Bidart, Molly Haskell, Ben Katchor and more, as well as new works created by the New School community.
"The Arts Festival reflects the range of artistic and intellectual activity at The New School," said New School President David E. Van Zandt. "What better theme to launch this first event than Noir—a genre that has influenced a number of the arts, from music to literature, film, and the fine and graphic arts."
The festival was organized by James Miller, chair of liberal studies
at The New School for Social Research; Robert Lupone, director of The New
School for Drama; and Robert Polito, director of The New School Writing
The New School Arts Festival is made possible by generous support from the Office of the President, the Office of the Provost, the Dorothy H. Hirshon Film Festival, the Graduate Writing Program, the Riggio Honors Program: Writing & Democracy, the School of Art, Media, and Technology at Parsons, and CityArts.

The hot lawn look this season is made up of floral patterns, tasteful cuts, and a body that's one-half thigh.
We're no stranger to confusing proportions here at Photoshop Disasters, but the "why" is often lost on us. Maybe there's a target market for meter-long thigh, or maybe there's some people out there who think waists and knees could use a bit more distance. I don't know – I'm still trying to figure out what a dupatta is.
Editor's note: a dupatta is a long, multi-purpose scarf that is essential to many South Asian women's suits, you uncultured swine.
Editor's second note: Still no clue regarding the never-ending thigh though.

The month of November is important in illustrating how far the Edmonton Oilers have come in just one year.
In the 2010-11 season, the Oilers picked up their seventh win in their final game of November and 23rd overall. This season, with the month of November just beginning, the Oilers already have seven wins under their belts in just 11 games.
A team that finished 30th in the NHL standings each of the previous two seasons entered Thursday night leading the Northwest Division and tied for first in a very competitive Western Conference. Edmonton general manager Steve Tambellini appeared on Thursday night's "NHL Hour With Commissioner Gary Bettman" to attempt to explain how this transformation occurred.
"What we've been trying to do over the last couple years -- so many things in so many different areas, from redoing our minor-league system, our scouting, our player development, and maybe most importantly, a change of attitude," Tambellini said. "And Tom Renney and his coaching staff have been committed to holding the line of the expectations from within the organization, whether you're a young player or a veteran player, that it's going to be about what's best for the Edmonton Oilers.
"We've been fortunate enough to obviously acquire some young skill that their talent speaks for itself, but we've also been able to acquire some leadership, and that's something that was at the forefront of our request list, is that we felt that we needed to add more leadership within our organization; and therefore, players like Eric Belanger and Ryan Smyth to complement some of the players that are already here with (Shawn) Horcoff and (Ales) Hemsky and those type of players.
"So I think what you're seeing overall is probably more depth and skill as one of the reasons why we're having success right now, some exceptional goaltending from Nik Khabibulin and Devan Dubnyk, and a real commitment to what Tom has asked from his players, and that's a commitment to paying the price for good defense."
Khabibulin began Thursday unbeaten in regulation and leading all goaltenders in goals-against average (1.12) and save percentage (.960), while being named one of the League's Three Stars for the month of October. However, he's almost been overlooked due to the play of some of the Oilers' young talent -- most notably a No. 1 pick by the name of Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.
The 18-year-old rookie pulled on his first Oilers sweater at the NHL Draft just over four months ago, and already he's scored a goal in his first game in the League, recorded a hat trick in his third and assumed the team's scoring lead with five goals and 11 points while winning Rookie of the Month honors for October.
"He looks so young, but you put him on the ice in a professional situation and he's so mature, so calm, so intelligent," Tambellini said. "And we told Ryan from the beginning, 'If you make our team this year, great. If you don't make it until next year, that's great, too.' There was going to be no pressure on this kid that he has to play this year, but he stepped on the ice in the preseason, looked pretty good, but then as he got more comfortable, obviously in the regular season, he just displayed a confidence and vision that is not normal for an 18-year-old young man that you normally see come into the National Hockey League."
In addition, the Oilers' previous selection with the No. 1 pick, Taylor Hall, is off to a solid start in his sophomore season with three goals and nine points -- and looks more comfortable and less wide-eyed in Tambellini's view. Another second-year standout, Jordan Eberle, leads the team with seven assists and is tied for second with 10 points.
Then there's the resident greybeard in Smyth, reacquired via a trade with the Los Angeles Kings during the summer. At 35, "Captain Canada" is showing he still has enough left in the tank to keep up with these kids, as he's tied with Nugent-Hopkins for the team lead with five goals and tied with Eberle for second in scoring with 10 points.
However, Smyth's value goes way beyond his production on the ice, Tambellini said.
"The example that he's brought within our locker room as one of a professional, how do you treat people, how you respond to media, how you respond when it's a good game or a bad game -- these are the things that we need in our organization to be great, not good, but great one day. He brings in so many of those intangibles that you can't buy it, you have to have people in there to teach, and he's one of our teachers, for sure," Tambellini said.
Thirty-three years before taking Nugent-Hopkins with the top pick and 32 years prior to selecting Hall, it was Tambellini hearing his name called in the first round by the New York Islanders, one of five teams he would play for in an NHL career that spanned nine seasons and 553 games.
These days, in addition to working at restoring the Oilers to their former glory days, Tambellini also follows the progress of his son, Jeff, a first-round pick in his own right by Los Angeles in 2003. Jeff Tambellini has 242 games of NHL experience with the Kings, Islanders and Canucks, in addition to six games during Vancouver's run to the Stanley Cup Final last spring. He's currently playing in Switzerland for the ZSC Lions of the National League A.
"To see him have success in a good organization, that was very, very special as a father, for sure," Tambellini said.

Zora's eyelids drooped, her upper lip quivered.
"Nothing," she answered softly. "But I hope your soul will burn in hell forever and forever."
They proceeded down the plantation road, but Zora could not speak. She pushed them slowly on, and turned aside to let the anger, the impotent, futile anger, rage itself out. Alone in the great broad spaces, she knew she could fight it down, and come back again, cool and in calm and deadly earnest, to lead these children to the light.
The sorrow in her heart was new and strange; not sorrow for herself, for of that she had tasted the uttermost; but the vast vicarious suffering for the evil of the world. The tumult and war within her fled, and a sense of helplessness sent the hot tears streaming down her cheeks. She longed for rest; but the last plantation was yet to be passed. Far off she heard the yodle of the gangs of peons. She hesitated, looking for some way of escape: if she passed them she would see something—she always saw something—that would send the red blood whirling madly.
"Here, you!—loafing again, damn you!" She saw the black whip writhe and curl across the shoulders of the plough-boy. The boy crouched and snarled, and again the whip hissed and cracked.
Zora stood rigid and gray.
"My God!" her silent soul was shrieking within, "why doesn't the coward—"
And then the "coward" did. The whip was whirring in the air again; but it never fell. A jagged stone in the boy's hand struck true, and the overseer plunged with a grunt into the black furrow. In blank dismay, Zora came back to her senses.
"Poor child!" she gasped, as she saw the boy flying in wild terror over the fields, with hue and cry behind him.
"Poor child!—running to the penitentiary—to shame and hunger and damnation!"
She remembered the rector in Mrs. Vanderpool's library, and his question that revealed unfathomable depths of ignorance: "Really, now, how do you account for the distressing increase in crime among your people?"
She swung into the great road trembling with the woe of the world in her eyes. Cruelty, poverty, and crime she had looked in the face that morning, and the hurt of it held her heart pinched and quivering. A moment the mists in her eyes shut out the shadows of the swamp, and the roaring in her ears made a silence of the world.
Before she found herself again she dimly saw a couple sauntering along the road, but she hardly noticed their white faces until the little voice of the girl, raised timidly, greeted her.
"Howdy, Zora."
Zora looked. The girl was Emma, and beside her, smiling, stood a half-grown white man. It was Emma, Bertie's child; and yet it was not, for in the child of other days Zora saw for the first time the dawning woman.
And she saw, too, the white man. Suddenly the horror of the swamp was upon her. She swept between the couple like a gust, gripping the child's arm till she paled and almost whimpered.

July 29th, 2011 at 12:38 AM
lol Love his shirt. Love his glasses. Love the extra scruff on his face. And…. I was getting a little tired of him wearing those black pants all the time, but you know what? It's good to see them again. He looks really happy to be there. I wish we had a video of Tom's reaction when he saw the shirt. I bet it was awesome.
July 29th, 2011 at 12:40 AM

He is just too charming for words. His loyalty only makes him more rapturous. Of course, it hurts like Hell that he is so close and yet so fat tonight..
July 29th, 2011 at 4:09 AM
I love him!! I LOVE him!! 😀 I love that he's there supporting Tom, and I love that he's there being his quirky self wearing that 'I heart Tom Felton' T-shirt 😛 I completely adore the way he's so supportive of his friends in his own special way ^^ He's all that you've said: adorable, sweet, cute, charming, loyal, rapturous, supportive, etc.
Bree, I actually wondered if he's going to wear a 'special' shirt to support Emma if he'll go to the premiere of TPoBaW. I'd so love to see that!! 😀
Gosh, it's incredible!! This day past month he was in Spain, and in just one month he globetrotted half the planet. He was in Spain, Holland, the UK, the US, then back in the UK, and now back in the US XD I swear he must have spent more time flying than doing anything else XD Mmmm… Maybe I should become a flight attendant, and that way I'd have more chances to meet him… 😛
July 29th, 2011 at 6:47 AM
Is he not the cutest? I love how close the whole cast seems. Tom Felton says jokingly that he's had a crush on Rupert for years, then Rupert wears an I <3 Tom Felton shirt. *sigh*….I love a good bromance!
July 29th, 2011 at 6:51 AM
this is so funny that he would actually attend a premiere with a t shirt saying I <3 tom felton!!
But that shows how considerate he actually is….
I <3 Rupert Grint…

So cute – glasses reminded me of Thunderpants.
Were he to go to a premier for Emma's movie – the T-shirt should read "I kissed Emma Watson"
July 29th, 2011 at 1:30 PM
Lol, Anna, I actually checked the label of the jacket, as well XD I'm just so nosy when it comes to him. I want to know every little detail about him.
What a funny character. He could be the next Johnny Depp on red carpet 😛

Some U.S. progressives are supporting a move by Icelandic politicians to nominate alleged WikiLeaks collaborator Bradley Manning for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Manning was nominated for the prestigious prize by The Movement of Icelandic Parliament, a group of politicians in Iceland dedicated to empowering grassroots activism.
Critics already were blasting U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) for saying the Republican Party's top goal during the next two years should be to ensure President Obama doesn't win a second term. But a recent revelation has some people stating McConnell is guilty of crass politicking and hypocrisy involving American troops.
The local chapter of the Coffee Party political movement will hold a rally Saturday to commemorate the eighth anniversary of the Iraq War, and call for reallocating war funds to a more useful domestic purpose.
The event, entitled the Patriotic American Peace Rally, will be held from 1-3 p.m. at downtown's Fountain Square. It will feature various speakers including an Iraq war veteran, along with live music.
As far as conservatives go, I can tolerate columnist George Will and often enjoy reading his work. Unlike most of what passes as conservatism today, Will tends to base his arguments on logic and fact, not emotion and rhetoric.
Making him even more of an anomaly in Republican circles, Will acknowledges and corrects his errors, when he makes them. As an added bonus, he's also a deft wordsmith.
Despite his many years in office, Congressman Steve Chabot (R-Westwood) could stand to take a few pointers from Will. Chabot, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Middle East and South Asia, spoke during a hearing Wednesday about his concerns with a total withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq by year's end.
Supporters of low income housing programs are criticizing a bill proposed by U.S. Rep. Steve Chabot (R-Westwood). Chabot's proposal would impose restrictions on people who use the federal Section 8 housing program, which provides vouchers to help poor people pay their rent. Among his changes, people only would be able to use the program for five years. In Cincinnati, however, 53 percent of clients already leave the program within five years. Of the 47 percent who remain, many of them have problems like mental health issues and likely would become homeless and more expensive to deal with for the government, a housing advocate told The Enquirer.
To prepare for an influx of foreign visitors when the World Choir Games begin here in July, a new language translation tool is being launched. Cincinnati-based Globili is testing its text and mobile application for cellphones and smartphones that translates signs, menus and ads into about 50 languages. The event will be held July 4-14 at various locations in downtown and Over-the-Rhine including the Aronoff Center for the Arts and Music Hall.
It's been 147 years since the U.S. Civil War ended, but Kentucky lawmakers are just now getting around to abolishing a pension fund for Confederate veterans. The measure, which passed Kentucky's House of Representatives unanimously on Feb. 29, now heads to the state Senate for a vote. No one who is eligible to receive the pension has been alive for at least 50 years, lawmakers said. I guess things really do move more slowly in the South.
Business at the venerable Blue Wisp Jazz Club has increased since it moved to a new location at Seventh and Race streets in January. The club's owners attribute the jump to more pedestrian traffic and the number of hotels located near the new site. The front room includes a bar and restaurant accessible with no cover charge, while the back room is reserved for performances by Jazz musicians.
Steep spikes and drops on standardized test scores, a pattern that has indicated cheating in Atlanta and other cities across the nation, have occurred in hundreds of school districts and charter schools across Ohio in the past seven years, a Dayton Daily News analysis found. The analysis doesn't prove cheating has occurred in Ohio, but documents show state officials don't employ vigorous statistical analyses to catch possible cheating, discipline only about a dozen teachers a year and direct Ohio's test vendor to spend just $17,540 on analyzing suspicious scores out of its $39 million annual testing contract.
In news elsewhere, the U.S. Supreme Court begins its constitutional review of the health-care overhaul law today with a basic question: Is the court barred from making such a decision at this time? The justices will hear 90 minutes of argument about whether an obscure 19th-century law — the Anti-Injunction Act — means that the court cannot pass judgment on the law until its key provisions go into effect in 2014.
When it recently was announced that a U.S. soldier who allegedly went on a shooting spree in Afghanistan would be charged with 17 counts of murder, many people wondered about the number. After all, early reports indicated Army Staff Sgt. Robert Bales, a Norwood native, allegedly killed 16 people. Military officials decided to charge Bales with murder for the death of the unborn baby of one of the victims, a senior Afghan police official said today.
In a possibly related incident, a gunman in an Afghan army uniform killed two NATO soldiers today at a base in southern Afghanistan, NATO's International Security Assistance Force has said. Details were still sketchy, but NATO said in a statement that an individual wearing an Afghan soldier's uniform had turned his weapon against international troops. Coalition forces then returned fire, killing the gunman.
China and the United States have agreed to coordinate their response to any "potential provocation" if North Korea goes ahead with a planned rocket launch, the White House says. North Korea says the long-range rocket will carry a satellite, but U.S. officials say any launch would violate United Nations resolutions and be a missile test.
Somehow, 71-year-old Dick Cheney managed to get a heart transplant Saturday after spending nearly two years on a list waiting for a suitable organ to become available. Cheney, a former U.S. vice president and — some would say — unindicted war criminal, got the transplant even as much younger, healthier people continue to wait for a new heart. (My guess is he made a pact with Beelzebub.) Cheney has had five heart attacks over the years, the first occurring at age 37.
Perhaps sensing they were losing the public perception battle, House Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor on Monday agreed to extend the payroll tax cut for another 10 months without getting offsetting reductions elsewhere in the budget. The action is a victory for President Obama, who opposed the GOP's attempts to force pay cuts for federal workers and require them to contribute more to their pensions.
In a reaction to economic sanctions pushed by the United States, Iran today stopped exporting oil to six European nations. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the nation would no longer sell oil to Greece, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands and Portugal. Also, he appeared on TV to announce that an underground bunker complex for uranium enrichment needed to create nuclear energy is now fully operational.
Can a person support the troops without supporting the two wars? Peggy Logue replies with an unqualified "yes."
Logue pondered the question deeply when her 19-year-old son, U.S. Marine Cpl. Michael Logue, was deployed to a volatile area of Iraq, an action that clashed with her anti-war views. The result of her soul-searching is the book Skin in the Game: Journey of a Mother and her Marine Son, Supporting the Troops Without Supporting the War.

Social Engineering Trends and Prevention
Social engineering backgrounder and how-to prevent yourself from becoming the next victim. Special emphasis is placed upon the simplicity and ease with which various social engineering strategies, preventatives and countermeasures can be implemented without requiring a degree in rocket science.
This article's aim is to provide you with a little background information about social engineering and how not to become the next in the long line of social engineering victims. Specific emphasis will be placed upon the preventative side of social engineering while at the same time maintaining a simplistic approach to implementing solutions.
The Human Factor
Always bear in mind that security does not stop or start with the technology alone. The simple reality of the world in which we live is that it is/will be us humans who will to some degree or other be using, controlling, implementing, regulating, maintaining, modifying, repairing or adding to the technology's base functionalities and capabilities.
The reasons as to why any given specific attribute is managed by or manipulated in a particularly way are many and varied. To complicate matters even further many decisions concerning the approach taken in the implementation of many technologies may not even be rationale-based.
Emotive Factors
"I want it all and I want it now" or "Oh! I just love that color". These are but two of the many immensely powerful emotive factors that can exert great influence at decision time.
The Big Picture
The overall result however; will be such that these factors will oft times equate to uses of any specific technology in a multitude of ways; which those who originally designed and built the technology could not have possibly have ever envisioned.
Solution Usability
Right from the get go it must be said that no matter how good a solution may be in fulfilling the needs of individuals and organizations alike. Failure to address the usability factors will inevitably result in dramatically less than expected uptake and adoption of said solution by individuals, organizations of all forms and sizes and everything in between.
The Weakest Link
We live in a world of humans using technology and time and time over it is the human that is usually the weakest link in any technological chain or strategy. The more complex and sophisticated that chain, strategy, process or project is the more often human actions or lack thereof will result in disruption to said chain and processes etc.
Assumption One
So it is that we can reliably assume that; in the vast majority of instances, humans will; from a security perspective, be any system or technology's weakest link. We will therefore need to adjust our planning and procedures to reflect this.

Brian, Peter and me – the blue-eyed boy
Posted: October 12, 2012|
I'M sure the fact that having my dad die when I was 11 played a significant part in my development in those early Hartlepools days.
Brian Clough probably represented that senior dominant male figure I never had at home and I listened intently to this fascinating man who had suddenly come into my life.
It was obvious from a very early stage that Brian relied heavily on Peter Taylor when it came to making the right choice about which players would be right for the team. Clough would tell Taylor he needed a left-back or a striker and Peter would get them.
One thing is certain, they were better together than they were when they were apart, as experiences in later years would go to prove.
Related content
Peter was a calming influence on Brian. He also had a dry sense of humour.
One day he said to me: "John, do you realise that you have got an advantage over other professionals in the game of football? When professionals reach the age of 30 they all lose a yard of pace, but you'll never have that problem."
Thankfully, my lack of pace never stopped me having a pretty decent career.
Peter could also be quite ruthless. I badly twisted my ankle after five minutes of a game with Halifax. Limping badly, I played on until half time.
Peter told the trainer to strap up my ankle, insisting I would be fine. An X-ray later showed I had played for 40 minutes with a broken ankle.
At the end of my first full season, Clough and Taylor left Hartlepools to take charge of Derby County. Before they left they made it clear that I would be going with them.
Despite Clough's promise, come the start of the 1967-68 season I was still a Hartlepools United player.
The incoming boss was Angus McLean and, as a friendly gesture I went to the ground during the summer break to introduce myself. His opening line was incredible.
"So you're Cloughie's blue-eyed boy are you? Well I'm going to change all that."
The animosity was instant. From the first day in charge all he did was criticise me. I was left out of the team whenever McLean needed a scapegoat.
It was only after about six or seven games that Derby eventually came in with an offer of £7,500 for me. Brian just put a contract down in front of me and I signed it. I trusted him and didn't even ask what was in it.
So, on September 12, 1968, I became a Derby County player earning £25 a week, which was the same wage I had been on at Hartlepools.
The first time I watched them they beat Chelsea 3-1 in a League Cup replay before a full house at the Baseball Ground. Dave Mackay scored from 30 yards, with Alan Durban and Kevin Hector getting the other two.
Mackay was the ultimate competitor who was an inspiration to every player in the club. And I realised just how far I was from being as good a player as him.
I knew the only way I was going to make progress was to make sure I played out of my skin for the reserves.
But the reserve-team trainer was another major stumbling block to my progress. His name was Jack Burkitt, who had captained Nottingham Forest to FA Cup success in 1959. He took one look at me, my puny body and awkward running style, and dismissed me as having no potential whatsoever.
McGovern will be signing copies of his book tomorrow at Waterstones, Nottingham (2.30pm); Saturday, October 20 at the Forest Club Shop (11am) and WH Smith, Victoria Centre, on Friday, October 26 (11.30am).

An endocrinologist is a doctor who specializes in conditions related to the endocrine system, the complex network of hormone-secreting glands in the human body. Hormones are critical to healthy function, and a number of conditions can be caused by under or overproduction of hormones, an inability to process certain hormones, and other problems with the endocrine system. Diabetes and thyroid problems are two of the most common conditions endocrinologists deal with in their work. The goal of the endocrinologist is to determine the source of the problem, and to develop a treatment plan to address it. Click to learn about our endocrinologist.

Republicans are calling America's debt a national security issue.
In the GOP's weekly address, Georgia Senator Saxby Chambliss says $13 trillion of debt will leave the U.S. vulnerable and force future generations to pay higher taxes to pay for what he calls "Democrats' out-of-control spending."
How concerned are you about our nation's debt? Let me know your thoughts.

(AP) - Xerox says its electronic benefits system is up and running again in the 17 states including Georgia where food stamp recipients use debit-style cards to access their accounts.
Glitches prevented the cards from being used in other states including Ohio, Michigan, Texas and California. A Xerox spokeswoman says restarting the EBT system required time to ensure service was back "at full functionality." The problem was apparently triggered by maintenance procedures.
It meant shoppers were unable to acquire groceries.
An emergency voucher process was available in some of the areas while the problems were occurring.
The government was quick to point out that the problems were not related to the government shutdown.

Dear Friends,
Please join Vince and me in thanking Tony Penikett, UW's first Canada Fulbright Chair in Arctic Studies, for his time with us this Fall. Tony's course, Arctic Insecurities, was a tremendous success. He will be back in Winter Quarter as part of the Future of Ice lecture series (please see below for registration). We also want to thank our Visiting Québec Scholar, Thierry Giasson, for bringing current Québec politics to the awareness of our students and faculty. Finally, we thank Alexina Kublu and Mick Mallon, originally from Iqaluit, Nunavut, for tutoring our students in the Inuit language. In the article below you will hear a short clip of Kublu and Mick speaking Inuktitut. Happy holidays and Nakurmiik (Inuit for thank you) for being part of the UW's Canada community! – Nadine and Vince
Graduate students - FLAS Fellowship applications now available; undergrads - two fellowships up to $10,000 to study in Canada; all - Future of Ice Lecture Series quickly filling! See below for more information.
Canadian Studies Center, December 2013
Québec Scholar, Thierry Giasson, Discusses the 2012 Québec Student Demonstrations
by Annie Banel, Graduate Student, Evan's School of Public Affairs, Student Assistant, Canadian Studies Center
Thierry (second from left) with Denyse Delcourt (left), Hedwige Meyer & Alex Price, all with French & Italian Studies; and, Lucy Jarosz, Geography.
On November 26, 2013 Thierry Giasson, our visiting Québec Scholar, presented his talk "Québec Student Strikes of 2012: Red Squares, Fair Shares, and Boycotts." Giasson expressed his fondness for the University of Washington, calling it his "academic home away from home." Giasson said that the strikes were a traumatic experience for him and that as a university professor, Giasson had "zero distance" yet he was compelled to find a way to talk about the strikes.
Giasson drew on his research background in political marketing, strategic communication by political parties, and framing in his analysis of the strikes. He focused on how government communications evolved during the crisis through a content analysis of 229 government statements from November 2011 to August 2012. Giasson included all government press releases during the crisis, media coverage of the government's reactions to ongoing events, as well as government responses presented during Parliamentary debates in the Québec National Assembly were included in his content analysis. Giasson argued that the government's shift from describing the demonstrations as "strikes" to calling them "boycotts" was one example of how the PLQ adjusted its narrative of the problem to its advantage.
Giasson's presentation aimed to answer the provocative question of whether the government wanted the crisis to continue. Giasson argued that from a political marketing perspective, the crisis was in fact an example of well-managed wedge politics. Giasson argued that the PLQ used the crisis to prepare the electoral field with wedge politics. Giasson points out that Charest's only television ad, 1.5 months before the election, should have been counted as an electoral ad as the ad did not talk about the tuition issue but rather communicated the government's sense of responsibility. Through his content analysis of government communications, Giasson concluded that through their framing of the problem the government was able to control the agenda in a way favorable to them, polarize the electorate on an issue, and present the PLQ as strong on law and order as well as strong on the "right to education."
Thierry Giasson is Associate Professor in the Information and Communication Department at Université Laval in Québec City. He holds a Ph.D. in political science from the University of Montreal. Dr. Giasson is the principal investigator of the research group in political communication (GPCR) from Université Laval. He is also an associate researcher at the Institute of Information Technology and Society at Université Laval and the Centre for the Study of Democratic Citizenship (CSDC) from McGill University. Thierry served as the Center's Québec Visiting Professor in 2006-07.
This event was made possible, in party, by Title VI grant funding from the Office of Postsecondary Education, International Education Program Services, U.S. Department of Education; and by a Québec Academic Initiative Grant, Government of Québec.

Arts & Sciences Grant Supports First UW Interdisciplinary Graduate Course in Arctic Studies
Two students from the course - Elle Roelofs, Education (far right) and Jason Young, Geography (next) - meet with Alexina Kublu, former Language Commissioner for Nunavut, Mick Mallon, Inuktitut instructor, and Robyn Davis, FLAS Coordinator (back) to learn more about Nunavut and the Inuit language.
In Fall Quarter 2013 the Center – in conjunction with College of the Environment and the Future of Ice initiative – offered a graduate course on the Arctic entitled, The Arctic as a Global Emerging Region.
As a result of climate change, the Arctic is fast becoming a region of considerable scientific and geopolitical interest. In the Arctic, global warming is occurring at twice the rate of the rest of the planet – for the first time in history we will witness the emergence of a new ocean. At the same time, the Arctic is a focus for global geopolitics with unique characteristics including the prominence of environmental security and, the effective role of Arctic indigenous peoples in international affairs. The Arctic is now a top foreign policy priority for Canada, Russia, the Scandinavian countries and the United States as well as for sub-national entities such as Québec and Alaska. Even China, Japan, Singapore, India and the Republic of Korea now have a role on the Arctic Council. The Arctic is a paradox – it serves as the global barometer for climate change while presenting new ways forward in global geopolitics. How do we understand the complexities of this "new" global region?
This seminar explored the Arctic as an emerging region in the 21st century from a variety of perspectives – climate and ocean change, human rights, changes to the cryosphere (sea ice, permafrost, glaciers), indigenous concepts of Arctic territory, fisheries management and economics, community security (education, health, housing and food), international customary law, past human-environmental dynamics, global geopolitics, resource extraction and environmental ethics, and the interactions between the Arctic indigenous peoples and state entities in the policy dialogue.
The course was structured to facilitate the writing of research proposals for the Arctic Research Fellowships. Eighteen students (nine from the College of Arts and Sciences and nine from the College of the Environment) attended a weekly seminar. In each seminar a panel of UW faculty or researchers, local artists, the Canada Fulbright Chair in Arctic Studies and even guest speakers from Canada presented on their research or artistic work as it concerns the Arctic as a distinct region. This seminar marked the first time that UW students – and faculty – had the opportunity to see the wealth of activity that is occurring in Arctic Studies at the UW. "This was a real eye-opener for me," one student commented.
Speakers included Cecilia Bitz, Atmospheric Sciences; Kristin Laidre, Oceanographer, Applied Physics Laboratory, Polar Science Center; Sven Haakanson, Department of Anthropology and Burke Museum; Marc Miller, School of Marine and Environmental Affairs; David Fluharty, School of Marine and Environmental Affairs; Terrie Klinger, School of Marine and Environmental Affairs; Sandy Parker-Stetter, Aquatic and Fishery Sciences; Maria Coryell-Martin, Expeditionary Artist; Michelle Koutnik, Department of Earth and Space Sciences; Tony Penikett, Canada Fulbright Visiting Chair in Arctic Studies; Peter Geller, University of the Fraser Valley; Nadine Fabbi, Canadian Studies Center, Jackson School of International Studies; Jennifer Marlow, UW School of Law; Fran Ulmer, Chair, U.S. Arctic Research Commission; Jody Deming, Oceanography and Astrobiology; Axel Schweiger, Applied Physics Laboratory, Polar Science Center; Saadia Pekannen, Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies; Vince Gallucci, Aquatic and Fishery Sciences and Canadian Studies; George Hunt, Aquatic and Fishery Sciences; and Chris Anderson, Aquatic and Fishery Sciences.
Panelist discussions covered a wide-range of perspectives on the Arctic region including the salience of Inuit political mobilization, how the Age of the Arctic compares with the Rise of Asia, fisheries management as fish stocks move north, sea ice biology and the role of marine microorganisms in ocean ecology, and the impacts of climate change on Alaskan communities and on tourism in the north, to mention just a few of the subjects addressed. Students were asked to attempt to incorporate new content beyond their own disciplines into their understanding of the Arctic as a distinctive region.
The students each gave presentations on an area of research concerning the Arctic that was of keen interest to them. These areas of interest included Québec's Arctic policy, the role of the Russian Association of Indigenous Peoples of the North, the role of Asian countries on the Arctic Council, Canadian government policy concerning funding for Arctic research, use of new technologies by the Inuit civil society organizations to further community goals, impacts of climate change on the boreal forest and on ice modeling, and differing concepts of ice (Western scientific vs. indigenous). Some of the students may apply for an Arctic Research Fellowship – a program open to any UW graduate student.
The Arctic Research Fellowships provide a $5,000 award to about eight UW students working on research that addresses the Arctic as a distinct world region in area studies. Students are encouraged to examine the Canadian, Russian or Scandinavian Arctic regions, or analyze interest in the Arctic by Asian countries, from an interdisciplinary perspective (natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, arts). The funding is provided by an Arts and Sciences grant awarded to the Canadian Studies Center with co-PIs from the Program on Climate Change and Atmospheric Sciences.
The course was taught by a faculty team including lead instructor, Ben Fitzhugh, Anthropology; Jody Deming, Oceanography; Nadine Fabbi, Canadian Studies Center; Vincent Gallucci, Aquatic and Fishery Sciences and Canadian Studies; and, Christine Ingebritsen, Scandinavian Studies and West European Studies.
For more about the course and Arctic Research Fellowships, visit http://www.jsis.washington.edu/arctic/grad/
This course and the research fellowships are made possible thanks to a grant from the College of Arts and Sciences for the project entitled, Re-imagining Area/International Studies in the 21st Century: The Arctic as an Emerging Global Region to enable the Canadian Studies Center – in partnership with the Center for West European Studies, Ellison Center for Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies, Center for Global Studies, and East Asia Center (all in the Jackson School), Anthropology and Scandinavian Studies, Aquatic and Fishery Sciences, Atmospheric Sciences, Oceanography, Program on Climate Change, and the Quaternary Research Center – to take the first steps in building a Graduate Certificate in Arctic Studies at the UW.

Canadian Studies Report, December 2013
UW students learning Inuit language with help of FLAS fellowship
by Malanie Eng, UW News Lab

Inuktitut, the indigenous language of the Inuit peoples of Northern Canada, shares no roots with any other language in existence.
It is spoken by only 35,000 people – with nearly all of them living in tribal communities in Arctic Canada. With its complex glottal sounds and unique set of written symbols, Inuktitut is rare to hear and difficult to learn.
But thanks to the University of Washington's FLAS (Foreign Language and Area Studies) fellowship program, UW law student Caitlyn Evans is getting that chance.
The program awards tuition and living stipends to undergraduate, graduate and professional students to pursue foreign language and international area studies.
Fellowships are awarded through the Jackson School of International Studies' eight National Resource Centers, each of which organizes training and research focused on a different world region: East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, The Middle East, Canada, West Europe, Russia/East Europe/Central Asia and Global Studies.
These resource centers receive Title VI funding from the U.S. Department of Education to support students gaining competencies in 66 global languages and a variety of area topics.
"The objective is to have U.S. citizens and permanent residents in a wide variety of fields who can operate in foreign languages and with expertise in various world regions," said fellowships coordinator Robyn Davis in an email.
Evans, an aspiring environmental lawyer interested in indigenous land rights in the Arctic territories, was keen on learning the Inuit language "to build a cultural connection with the Arctic" upon first starting law school.
Luckily for her, Inuktitut was one of the languages offered for a FLAS fellowship in 2012. Not so lucky was the fact that UW doesn't offer any way to learn it on campus.
In fact, after calling nearly every U.S. and Canadian university with a distance-learning program, Evans thought there was no pathway for her to learn Inuktitut in all of North America.
That's when Mick Mallon entered the picture.
The retired language professor and former head of the Language Commission in the Inuit territory of Nunavut is one of the best qualified Inuktitut teachers in North America – not to mention one of just "four living white guys" fluent in the Inuit language today.
Canadian Studies Associate Director Nadine Fabbi first reached out to Mallon in 2004, on behalf of former JSIS student Tim Pasch who was interested in applying for FLAS in Inuktitut. Fabbi said Mallon has been an invaluable learning resource ever since.
"Given the fast-increasing outside interest in the Arctic, Inuktitut is becoming a strategic language for U.S. security," Fabbi said. "We are extremely fortunate to have resources to teach the Canadian Inuit language here at the UW."
Since Mallon lives in Victoria, Canada, the Canadian Studies Center had to get creative in setting up the curriculum for Pasch's fellowship. Traditional classroom lessons were clearly not an option, nor was going through an official university distance-learning program.
So, they turned to Skype. In addition to their lessons on the UW campus, Mallon now conducts semi-private lessons over the Web for Evans and her only other classmate, Walter O'Toole. O'Toole, an undergraduate English major, hopped on board when the class was resurrected for Evans' fellowship this quarter.
O'Toole grew up hearing stories about Inuit culture from his father, who used to work in the Arctic, and plans to take a trip north after graduating. He says he was interested in learning Inuktitut to "be exposed to something different."
"It's a beneficial cognitive exercise to learn a rare language," he said.
Evans and O'Toole both say Inuktitut is tough to learn, despite the fact that it's a very logical language in terms of semantics, phonetics and structure. (The Inuk word for education, for example, is at the beginning of the words for student, teacher, school and learning.)
"There's a lot of word making, instead of sentence making," O'Toole says. "Mick compares Inuktitut to Lego blocks, while English is like a string of beads on a necklace."
"My favorite part of teaching any students who persevere with this difficult and fascinating language," Mallon said, "is that moment when suddenly they start to glimpse the logic that holds the whole thing together. From then on, they're hooked."
Mallon immigrated from his native Belfast to Ottawa, Canada in 1954 to take a job as a high school teacher "set for a nice, boring life." But a chance encounter with the director of Canada's Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development (AANDC) program – and the incredible stories he shared – inspired a trip to the Nunavik territory of Arctic Quebec.
A lifelong language aficionado (who enjoyed "temporary" fluency in French, Italian, Spanish, Danish, Portuguese and Japanese throughout his life), Mallon decided to settle up north and slowly master the indigenous language of the Inuit people.
Over time, he grew fluent enough to switch from student to teacher and launch a prominent career in indigenous linguistics education. He said it wasn't exceptional talent that allowed him such prominence in the field, but the fact that he was teaching (and speaking) Inuktitut at all.
"In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king," he says.
Mallon also spearheaded the development of various indigenous language curricula in Arctic Canada, and published the only textbook written on Inuktitut.
He also served as the head of Nunavik's Language Commission and set up an Eskimo Language School in the Inuit territory of Rankin Inlet.
"I taught Canadian government workers, Inuit children, college students," he said. "I even taught a few American Baptist missionaries - they were the best students I ever had!"
At 80, Mallon says he still "jumps at every chance" to teach Inuktitut – doing his part to keep the language alive.
Helping teach Evans and O'Toole is Mallon's wife, Alexina Kublu, a fellow Inuktitut linguist and former pupil of Mallon's. As an Inuit native, she adds a unique cultural dimension to their lessons.
"Kublu brings in cultural stories a lot," Evans said. "There are a lot of stories. She offers the Arctic perspective."
Kublu and Mallon both say it doesn't matter who learns the language, just as long as someone is learning it.
"We're very much concerned with the language disappearing," Mallon said. "The worst enemy of the indigenous languages of the world is the English language. It's like a cancer, and television is like cigarettes."
"We're losing the battle," Kublu added.
Mallon and Kublu say most younger-generation Inuks don't even speak their native language. They say this is partly due to the globalization of English, and partly because resources to learn it are limited - even in traditional Inuit communities. Setting up the Eskimo Language School in Rankin Inlet was Mallon's response to the latter problem.
But according to Kublu, not all hope is lost. She said the advent of social media is helping tremendously in connecting Inuks around the world, and giving the language a platform for global exposure.
"YouTube gives people everywhere access to Inuktitut singing, for example," she said.
"A friend told me: 'if we want to save the language for young people, we've got to make it cool,'" Mallon said. "And it is cool!"

Killam Fellow Shares Canadian Experience
by Kwame Babukar, Killam Fellow 2013-2014
I've had a terrific experience in Canada. It started with a weekend long orientation hosted by Fulbright Canada in Ottawa. We got to tour the Parliament building and the Supreme Court. Later we also went to the museum and played a game of hockey. Fulbright Canada took care of everything. After I returned from Ottawa, I started my exchange. On campus, I met Canadians as well as other exchange and international students. I participated in activities on campus and throughout the city including bowling, dodgeball, thanksgiving dinner (October in Canada), visited an Ontario farm, and helped organize a flash-freeze mob against conflict minerals. I also learned more about Canadian history, the issues Canadians face, Canada's relationship with the rest of the world, multiculturalism in Canada, and Canadian media. My semester in Canada has been a truly worthwhile experience.
The Killam Fellowships Program provides an opportunity for exceptional undergraduate students from universities in the United States to spend either one semester or a full academic year as an exchange student in Canada. Killam provides a cash award of $5,000 U.S. per semester ($10,000 for a full academic year), an all expense paid three day orientation in Ottawa, and a three day all expense paid seminar in Washington. The Canadian Studies Center is a partner institution with the Killam Foundation enabling up to two full academic year fellowships annually for U.W. students.

Canadian Studies Report, December 2013
Letter from a K-12 STUDY CANADA Teacher Associate in Arizona
by Dennis Rees, Peoria Unified School District teacher, Peoria, Arizona
Dennis Rees (far left) and other educators at the NRC's "Archives on the Arctic" workshop in Denver, CO. (06/13)
My name is Dennis Rees and I taught 6th – 8th Grade in the Peoria Unified School District in Peoria, Arizona, for 30 years. I have had a wonderful career as a teacher focused on improving geography education in middle school classrooms. In 2007, I even received the first Grosvenor Teacher Fellowship from the National Council for Geographic Education for my efforts and was graciously awarded with a Lindblad Expedition to the Galapagos Islands as well as a $3000 honorarium. Even so, a highlight for me has been learning about Canada and encouraging other teachers to include new and improved content on Canada in their social studies classrooms.
Over the last eleven years, I have been fortunate to participate in several workshops offered by the Pacific Northwest National Resource Center (NRC) on Canada, including three "STUDY CANADA Summer Institutes". My first experience was in 2002 when the program was held on the campus of Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA. I participated again in 2006 when "STUDY CANADA" moved to Vancouver and Whistler, BC and focused on themes connected to 2010 Winter Olympics and, again in 2012, when a "Capital View of Canada: Nations within a Nation" became the theme and the location moved to its capital city, Ottawa, ON. In addition, last June, I participated in a special "Archives on the Arctic: Connecting to Global Issues with Primary Sources" workshop that the NRC offered with a grant from the Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources Western Regional Center. Combined, these experiences provided me with a huge wealth of information about Canada's geography, history, government, culture, and economy. The presenters were knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I always came home with a fire in my belly to spread the word about Canada not only in my school but also at professional development events.
One way I promoted Canada at my school was to create a "Canada Resource Shelf" in our Geography Lab. It contained an artifact box filled with items that were examples of Canadian culture, heritage, geography, and economy. In addition to that, I collected resource materials, maps, digital media, music, children's literature, and instructional materials that teachers could use in their classroom to teach about Canada. Several of these items were inspired by resources found in the K-12 STUDY CANADA Resource Valise, a teacher loan-kit available to teachers across the country for a 3-week loan period (to learn more, see http://www.k12studycanada.org/resources_valise.html).
Classroom lessons were also expanded and shared as part of professional development presentations made at national education conferences such as NCSS San Diego (2007) and NCGE Lake Tahoe (2006), San Marcos (2012), Denver (2013) as well as at several regional Arizona Geographic Alliance GeoConferences. These presentations helped me not only get the word out about the NRC's K-12 STUDY CANADA resources at www.k12studycanada.org<http://www.k12studycanada.org> and the summer institute but also to show the need for greater knowledge about Canada in our social studies curricula. Though now retired, this is how I continue to share knowledge about Canada with colleagues and I am delighted to do so on behalf of the NRC as a K-12 STUDY CANADA Teacher Associate.
As a result of my professional development training by the NRC, access to K-12 STUDY CANADA resources, and my continued outreach, many students, pre-service teachers, classroom teachers and social studies supervisors have been impacted. It has been rewarding to know that they left our interaction with a better understanding of Canada, our too often-overlooked northern neighbor.
As an active member of several education organizations, I encourage others to explore the NRC's resources and, especially, participate in a STUDY CANADA Summer Institute – the experience is transformative for teachers at every level of education…and all who know me recognize that I do not give such compliments often or lightly. Thanks to all at WWU and UW for the professional development opportunities and support provided to teachers like me. I wish you continued success in bringing Canada into American classrooms.
The Canadian Studies Center forms the Pacific Northwest National Resource Center (NRC) on Canada with the Center for Canadian-American Studies, Western Washington University (WWU).Tina Storer, at WWU, serves as Education and Curriculum Specialist for the NRC. STUDY CANADA is the NRC's annual professional development workshop, offered by the Center for Canadian-American Studies at Western Washington University for the last 34 years serving educators from almost every state in the nation.

Collapsible Shotgun 410 / 45 Colt / 12 Ga. NEF Survivor Tamer
People Who Liked This Video Also Liked
Did this video help you?
r91976: Is this stainless steel?
stripervince1: Lame. Single shot, gotta carry 2 different barrels. Get a tactical circuit judge. 5 shots plus carries 5 in butt stock. I have one, the best survival gun ever made. 45 long colt, 410 shoots 2and 3 in magnum shells, 31 inches long and only weighs 5 lbs.
Matthew Sutherland: the gun is called the snake charmer from the 1980s and brand new it cost 100 dollars and the case was an extra 6 dollars
bigdogbuc: In all seriousness, have you considered having the chamber reamed out to fit the .460 Magnum? I'm thinking about picking one up and having it done. That way, you can shoot the .460, .454 Casull, 45 Colt or, in a total pinch the 45 Schofield.
d.o. niskane: This firearm (with 12-ga barrel and hollow survival stock) firing 3" 00-buck is the most intense felt recoil I have ever experienced. And I don't give a crap about recoil. I took lead weights and filled every bit of the fore-end and stock with them. It brought the weight up over 9 lbs but at least I could spend a day at the range with the little monster.
xXMethereaperXx: Reminds me of an old Survival .22lr i had. Everything disassembled into the stock.
WaagooshTheRedFox: could always get a thread saver... its like a choke but it just fills the threaded choke spot on the muzzle to prevent damage to them (the threads).
Loloman2625: Can I buy the 12 gauge barrel form u
zimmy4661: I have one like it without the 12 ga. barrel. I added a trueglo front sight (got one for a 20 ga. since the barrel larger than a regular .410 at the front) and made a mark on the receiver to line up with and it is a lot easier to aim when used as a rifle. As stated earlier, 45 Colt sucks in this gun since so much power is lost as the gasses pass the bullet in the long chamber, it makes a "foup sound" rather than a boom. I took some 444 Marlin cases and blew them out to become 45 extra long Colt.
TheYamahaist: That 12 ga. round was a slug
Mario .Alberto: can you shot 410 slugs though that? i cuz i rather just shoot a slug, if i had to keep taking the choke out n putting it back in to shoot a 45lc.
BulletArc47: How does the .410 pattern? I imagine the choke is used to stabilize the pellets?
cheeselyman: do you have to use the choke for the 410
WaagooshTheRedFox: average 410 barrels are WAY too light for a 45LC, as in catastrophic failure. of course this is all dependent on the shotgun, and the thickness/strength of the barrel and bore.
The Ammo Channel: @ktktwix Parts diagram only lists the choke. I'll probably only use it as a 410 anyhow, the 12 gauge is brutal with this little guy. As for the 45 colt, it's a novelty... I have better options handy.
Robert Pittman: Where can you buy the survivor combo?
arcticcatprrace577: How much is the gun
TheMrbumpas: 45 colt is the correct name for the cartrige,"long colt" is a misnomer that got started a while back. Saw a link to how the name got confused but don't have it to share. part of the reason was .45 acp and .45 rim cartriges are shorter,the 45 rim was made for revolvers that could shoot 45acp with a "moon" clip and the rimmed version didn't need the clip
joshua klingensmith: where can i get a case like that? i sent away my 12 gauge and got the 410 colt 45 accessory barrel for it
James Huls: I have one and on the barrel it says 45 colt/410. I use 45 colt Cowboy Loads(John Wayne) specials in your video you refer to a 45 colt long????? im wandering if they are the same, what does yours say on the Barrel
GunFun ZS: They are usually marked tor 45 colt if safe for both .410 with thin barrels or chokes are dangerous.
matt sheppard: Seems complicated
groov14: I want one NOW,lol,good vid
Dakota Kaczynski: Thats not NEF, its h&r now
James Huls: To anyone with a 410, if it doesnt say on the Barrel 45 colt DO NOT try it IT MAY BLOW YOUR FACE OFF..
The Ammo Channel: I would be concerned about potential damage to the threads inside the barrel without it.
chris lowe: i like it. was the ball park price on it?
nick dirom: how much kik
Garrus Vakarian: The pressure ratings are extremely pessimistic though. Ive seen on quiet for a few occasions people firing things they should not.
Nate M. Friedman: Question? Did you get that 12 guage barrel in nickel finish directly from H&R? I saw their site and it says "Blue only unless otherwise specified". Thanks man.
7alphaman: I have the old solid black survivor 12ga and with a 3" Nitro Mag the recoil is insane. Worse than a 10ga 3 1/2" single shot, .375 H&H single shot, .500 single shot along with being worse than anything else lol.
steven10236: where did you get the case?
WildAndLiving: yes if it's threaded but they do make a cylinder choke which is just a thread protector so you can swap it out.
lfouse232: I had one of those but it wasnt a take down 45 iut of it wasnt good all it has is a bead front site the rifling in barrel u cannot shoot slugs out of it so i was done then i love 410 slugs but it couldnt shoot them didnt find out till after i bought it it couldnt use them sold it good for rabbits and other small game not much good for anything else
vpsaline: The 410 barrel is rifled? How does it pattern?
B Tuc: NO!
hugo barron: i have a regular 410 can i shoot a 45 cal ?
garbhead: does the 12 ga barrel have "survivor" on it? what choke is it
James Hennly: @mainejunker So you simply remove the choke to shoot the 45? I picked one of these up used, and I know nothing about it.
swankHD: I've got a Rossi that's similar, but i have the .410, .22, and .243 barrels.
The Ammo Channel: I wouldn't suggest it. A regular 410 won't have a rifled barrel and the bore could potentially be under or oversize as per 45LC spec. Also, a standard 410 may not be rated for the pressures of 45LC. :(
Chase VandeLInde: i seen a gun that looks just like hat that shoot tranqs and does it shot tranqs
jsm666: I want one. It would be nice if they came with a .22LR or .22WMR option, although I can imagine the designers figured anything you'd hunt with a .22 would be amply taken care of with the .410. The .45 colt may be a novelty, as you said to someone else, but it would be neat to have it available if something bigger came your way potentially bent on eating you. (Then again, a 12 bore slug or heavy 000 load might be better still, IF you had enough time to change barrels!!) Can it fire .410 solids?
CGAlpha158: 7 lbs in bag 6 lbs assembled.
6BlackWings: How much does that entire outfit weigh, if I might ask?
Tossdart: Im interested in this gun, could you pattern it in 410 at 30 yards with #7 shot, and make a vid? How many pellets would be in the killzone in a standing grouse or a rabbit.
olskiz12: Nice compact gun
garbhead: would you consider selling this setup or trading it for something?
WildAndLiving: if you have a choke no. Not a good idea no choke don't worry about it.
MrFlyTWA: Glorified snake gun, does not shot well because chamber too long for 45 long colt and barrel diameter to large for 410 slug because the 45LC is .454 caliber. I have one my collection I know why the guy got rid of it. Nice video.

As we get closer and closer to Christmas, the #fails seem to get better and better – and this week has seen a bumper crop, including the most amusing excuse we've even seen for getting kicked off a plane. So, without further ado, let's crack-on with this week's stories…
Words With Stewardesses
TV funny man and film star Alec Baldwin found himself in hot water this week when we was ejected from an American Airlines flight. Unlike Gerard Depardieu though, Baldwin's excuse was a lot more nerdy – he refused to stop playing 'Words With Friends' on his iPhone during take-off, despite requests by the stewardess.
Not only did Baldwin proceed to go on a small rampage through the plane, he also "used offensive language" to a stewardess. Which is strange, because my version of Words With Friends doesn't let me use naughty words!
Not longer after the incident, Baldwin decided to close his Twitter account. No official reason has been given as to why Baldwin chose to close his account so quickly, though we imagine it might be something to do with a major sponsorship deal between the airline in question and NBC, the channel which houses his popular show '30 Rock'…
Either way, it's probably a wise idea seeing as how he's apparently planning to run for political office in the US….
And the winner is…
The prize for most hilarious marketing #fail of the week has to go to HMV, who unwittingly seemed to announce the winner of ITV's 'X-Factor', a week before the final actually happened. Due to what the music retailer referred to as "technical issue", the HMV pre-orders page listed the X-Factor "2011 Winner's Single", along with it's artist, contestant Amelia Lily.
Despite the retailer's assertions that "This was due to an unforeseen technical issue, and nothing further should be construed from it.", the rumour mill went in to full-swing – with conspiracy theorists ready to jump on whatever result is announced and speculate how it's all a big cover-up. Watch Twitter…
Press Releasicus, Forgeticus!
A major cock-up by a cumbersome PR exec resulted in red-faces for StonehillSalt this week, and there wasn't a spell in sight to save them. The agency had been tasked with managing the long-term PR strategy for the launch of Harry Potter web "experience" Pottermore, which was due to launch this week.
The exec in question mistakenly sent out a document which contained the entire PR strategy for the life of the campaign, to all the major newspapers in the UK. Whoops. The strategy included details of what coverage they were hoping to achieve, as well as how much they anticipated paying…
A spokesman was quick to claim the document was "old and outdated", though it hasn't stopped the launch of Pottermore being postponed, so judge for yourself how true that actually is.
A (bad) lesson in self-marketing
Our favourite story of the week concerned an investment banker who went on what he thought was a promising first date, only to be ignored by his potential flame.
In what must be one of the longest and most painful emails to a first-date ever, Mike proceeds to explain to "Lauren" why he thought their date had gone better than it seems. Amongst his disastrous attempts to woo her back are the following gems (read the full letter here):
You played with your hair a lot. A woman playing with her hair is a common sign of flirtation. You can even do a google search on it.
We had lots of eye contact during our date. On a per-minute basis, I've never had as much eye contact during a date as I did with you
You're very busy. It would be very convenient for you to date me because we have the same interests. We already go to classical music performances by ourselves. If we go to classical music performances together, it wouldn't take any significant additional time on your part.
After an email as frank and honest as that, we can only hope that Lauren will have seen the error of her ways and taken him on that much-anticipated second date by now… ahem.Tweet
