The last time I heard someone suggest the CEO was a company's biggest asset, it was in regards to OilExco and Art Milholland. Look how that turned out. To Milhollands credit, at least he gave shareholders the chance to make big money before the company flamed out.

Vz 52/57
So, in my hunt for a new rifle to buy, I came across a VZ 52/57 in a gun shop for somewhere around $250. I didn't thoroughly check, but it appeared to be in good shape. Even after extensive searching, I can find very little about this gun. Does it shoot well? Is it worth $250? is it accurate?
Thanks in advance.
At that price probably not a real 52/57. there are a couple of small differences. If it is a Vz52 with a chamber, don't buy it.
Make sure the rfle is marked Vz52/57, and that the reciever is notched for the barrel retaining pin. You can also do a search on this forum and the semi-auto military rifle forum for more information.

If it's a true 52/57, is that an instant buy price? It looks like a decent rifle, but I can't find many people commenting on it's actual performance.
If it is a genuine Vz 52/57 in decent shape (and unlike many/most Vz52s, the 52/57s in the U.S. tend to be in excellent shape), it is a definite "buy-it-now" at $250. Vz 52/57s are in the $550 and up category.
As previously mentioned, make sure you are getting the real McCoy and not a 52 with a chamber adapter. The adapters have a bad reputation for coming out with an empty case, leaving you with a 7.62x39 round loaded in a 7.62x45 chamber.
Good luck!

I'll go by and check on Tuesday, then. There were even two of them. Hopefully they won't be gone by the time I get my next pay check.
I have a couple of Vz52/57 rifles. I actually like shooting them better than my SKSs. The Vz is more accurate and feels more balanced I find. But it is more of a chore to fully clean vs the SKS.

If they are both real, buy them both, keep the best one, sell the other. You will have a "free" rifle plus cash in you pocket. Check and see if they have the cleaning kits in them."It's the end of the World as we Know it...and I feel fine!":eek:
Buy them ABSOLUTELY if they are both marked "VZ52/57 on the right front of the receiver. They are like hens teeth and they are being sold at about 1/3 of their market price......if they're authentic. Like the other posters have said, there are VZ52s out there which have had inserts installed. Stay away from them.
In a nutshell, the Czechs issued the VZ52 which is the only rifle designed specificially for the 7.62 x 49 intermediate round. It was abandoned, however, when the Soviets decided on the slightly smaller 7.62 x 39 and the VZ52 was rebarreled and redesignated as the VZ52/57. But it was only issued for a very short time in favor of the AK47 and SKS. So, it's a rare rifle with an interesting history but shoots a common ammo. Honestly, I believe that other than the Rasheed, the VZ52/57 handles the 7.62 x 39 round extremely well. Its a handsome, compact rifle with build-in bayo, is light weight and is also rugged. Bores on the VZ52 tend to be dirty but the VZ52/57 are usually bright and clean.
One of the telltale signs that it might be a VZ52 is if the stock has a black, bumpy finish on it. Many VZ52s were sprayed with that gunk by CAI after being imported. Why? Who really knows but I've never seen a VZ52/57 with the black truck bed liner material applied. But the final test will be if the rifle is clearly marked VZ52/57 on the receiver. If it is, buy both. You'll sell the other and cover ALL the cost of both rifles.
Good luck! Post up with what you find.

Thanks for the input, guys. I'll go back on Tuesday(the first day they're open again) and check to see if they're real.
If they are, hopefully they'll be around until I get paid around the beginning of July.
Minor point - the caliber is 7.62 x 45 for the Vz-52
I have one of both models, and love shooting them. They are a little heavy for their size, but that also keeps the recoil to a minimum.
Cleaning kits are hard to come by. I lucked out and found a complete one on ebay one day that I snatched up for $35 - haven't seen one again since. Fortunately my Vz-52/57 (that I snatched up for $495 a few months ago) came with a complete kit!
7.62x39 is plentiful - although prices are alot higher than they used to be - and 7.62x45 can be found at the online auctions and SOMETIMES in the back of a little gun shop all covered in dust.
Good Luck!
Here is how to tell if its a REAL Vz52/57.... you can tell from 20 feet away

Blah. One was a chamber inserted 52/57, and the other was just a standard 52. Guess I keep looking for my next firearm.
You are correct, of course. I shouldn't have lumped the Czech history with the other communist block countries. The VZ 58 was indeed designed for the 7.62 x 39 intermediate cartridge. Thanks for correcting me.

There is no charge for a confirmation.
What is the application fee?
The fee varies, depending on the over dimensional road load and complexity of the application. A list of the relevant fees can be found at Overdimensional loads charges.
Is there an additional fee if I change the details on my application?
You may have to pay an additional permit fee to cover the extra work required to process the change requested. An additional permit fee may apply if the following changes are made outside of the relevant time frames specified by Aurizon:a change of route;
a change of date; or
change of dimensions.
A list of the relevant fees can be found at Overdimensional loads charges.When I have a change of details, do I have to send a whole new application?
How much notice does Aurizon Network require?
The applicable Application Form sets out how much notification must be received by Aurizon before the transportation of an over-dimensional road load on Aurizon track infrastructure. Depending on the type of load that is being transported, different requirements need to be met.
What happens if I don't obtain an authority?
You may incur penalty units under the Transport Infrastructure (Rail) Regulation 2006 and be liable for any damages to Aurizon's rail infrastructure.Please note that a permit or confirmation does not prevent liability including damage to Aurizon property and personal injury to any person.
Police escorts should not allow the move to proceed without a written Aurizon permit or confirmation to cross the rail infrastructure.
Why must I list overbridge and open level crossings in the application?
Why must I list the time that the over dimensional road load will cross an open level crossing? This allows routes to be checked in order to ensure the safety of both Aurizon infrastructure and all concerned parties.
What should I do if I haven't received a permit or confirmation from Aurizon?If you have not received a permit or confirmation by 10 am four working days prior to the move, it is important to call the overdimensional loads team on 07 3235 1719 as soon as possible.

Keropok Amplang as it is popularly known, is a fish-based cracker mainly produced in Tawau, Sabah. There are numerous types of crackers produced in Malaysia, however keropok amplang is quite oustanding in colour, taste and shape. Many say that it is attributed to the fact that Tawau is rich in marine resources especially fresh spanish mackerel or locally known as ikan tenggiri, the main ingredient in keropok amplang production. The abundant supply of raw materials has generated numerous business opportunities for the small-scale food industries in the area.
Capitalising on the readily available resources, Rosma Norhayati Titing started to produce keropok amplang way back in 1996 at Kg Wakuba, Tawau. Like many other successful entrepreneurs, it all began with a humble beginning for Rosma when she ventured into this business with only RM350 as a start-up capital. Now, after more than 10 years of hard work and determination, she has successfully established her business to become what is now Perusahaan IXORA 1.
Perusahaan IXORA 1 today, is one of the biggest producers of keropok amplang in Sabah with annual sales turnover of approximately RM420,000. The company is now managed by Rosma and her husband, Yadfullah Hj Sitam and supported by a workforce of 20 employees. The newly upgraded factory in Kg Wakuba Tawau is more efficient as its is well equipped with modern facilities such as deboner, fryer and mixer. The monthly production capacity has since increased from only 700kg ten years ago to approximate 2.5 tonne presently. Their product is mainly keropok amplang in original flavour, however new flavours has also been introduced in response to customer's varied demand. Their product comes in packets of 100gm and 150gm each priced at RM3.00 and RM5.00.
In terms of marketing, Perusahaan IXORA 1 is currently distributing its products primarily in Sabah and about 15% to West Malaysia and Sarawak. To further enhance the quality of their product, the company under Groom Big program has renewed its packaging and reposition the product with a chosen brand name IXORA. With a high product quality and Halal Certification, Perusahaan IXORA 1 is poised to tap the vast global market opportunities. With everything in place, Perusahaan IXORA 1 is geared to forge ahead towards greater height.

AP Intelligence Writer
POSTED: 4:49 a.m. HST, Jun 10, 2013
LAST UPDATED: 1:11 p.m. HST, Jun 10, 2013
WASHINGTON » The supersecret agency with the power and legal authority to gather electronic communications worldwide to hunt U.S. adversaries says it has the technical know-how to ensure it's not illegally spying on Americans.
But mistakes do happen in data-sifting conducted mostly by machines, not humans. Sometimes, former intelligence officials say, that means intelligence agencies destroy material they should not have seen, passed to them by the Fort Meade, Md.-based National Security Agency.
The eavesdropping, code-breaking agency is fighting back after last week's revelations in the media of two surveillance programs that have raised privacy concerns.
One program collects hundreds of millions of U.S. phone records. The second gathers audio, video, email, photographic and Internet search usage of foreign nationals overseas, and probably some Americans in the process, who use major providers such as Microsoft, Google, Apple, and Yahoo.
The programs were first reported in a series of articles published by The Guardian newspaper. On Sunday it identified Edward Snowden, a 29-year-old American who works as contract employee at the National Security Agency, as the source of the disclosures. The newspaper said it was publishing the identity of Snowden, a former technical assistant for the CIA and current employee of defense contractor Booz Allen Hamilton, at his request.
"I have no intention of hiding who I am because I know I have done nothing wrong," he was quoted as saying.
The National Security Agency filed a criminal report with the Justice Department earlier this week in relation to the leaks. The director of national intelligence, James Clapper, has stated repeatedly that the NSA's programs do not target U.S. citizens and that the agency uses a process known as "minimization" to sift out data from "any U.S. persons whose communications might be incidentally intercepted."
His statement Saturday said that "the dissemination of information about U.S. persons is expressly prohibited unless it is necessary to understand foreign intelligence ... is evidence of a crime or indicates a threat of death or serious bodily harm."
While the NSA has deferred any public comment to Clapper, it did offer an internal article written by director of compliance John DeLong, who is in charge of making sure the NSA protects Americans' privacy.
DeLong writes that privacy protections are being written into the technology that sifts the information, "which allows us to augment — not wholly replace — human safeguards."
The NSA also uses "technology to record and review our activities. ... Sometimes, where appropriate, we even embed legal and policy guidance directly into our IT architecture."
What that means is that the data sifting is mostly done not by humans, but by computers, following complicated algorithms telling them what to look for and who has a right to see it, according to Ronald Marks, a former CIA official.
"Through software, you can search for key words and key phrases linking a communication to a particular group or individual that would fire it off to individual agencies that have interest in it," just like Amazon or Google scans millions of emails and purchases to track consumer preferences, explained Marks, author of "Spying in America in the Post 9/11 World."
Detailed algorithms try to determine whether something is U.S. citizen-related or not. "It shows analysts, 'we've got a U.S. citizen here, so we've got to be careful with it,'" he said.
But the process isn't perfect, and sometimes what should be private information reaches agencies not authorized to see it.
In that case, there are policies in place to "destroy that kind of information not file it or keep it if an American's name coincidentally or serendipitously comes up," John Negroponte, the first director of national intelligence, said in an Associated Press interview Friday.
Marks said that "when information gets sent to the CIA that shouldn't, it gets destroyed, and a note sent back to NSA saying, 'You shouldn't have sent that.'" He added, "Mistakes get made, but my own experience on the inside of it is, they tend to be really careful about it."
Michael Hayden, who led both the NSA and CIA, said the government doesn't touch the phone records unless an individual is connected to terrorism.
He described on "Fox News Sunday" how it works if a U.S. intelligence agent seized a cellphone at a terrorist hideout in Pakistan.
"It's the first time you've ever had that cellphone number. You know it's related to terrorism because of the pocket litter you've gotten in that operation," Hayden said. "You simply ask that database, 'Hey, any of you phone numbers in there ever talked to this phone number in Waziristan?'"
Hayden said the Obama administration had expanded the scope of the surveillance, but that oversight by lawmakers and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court also had grown because of changes in the law.
U.S. lawmakers who appeared on the Sunday talk shows argued the pros and cons of the surveillance programs.
The head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Democrat Dianne Feinstein of California, told ABC's "This Week" that the phone program had helped disrupt a 2009 plot to bomb New York City's subways and played a role in the case against an American who scouted targets in Mumbai, India, before a deadly terrorist attack there in 2008.
Democratic Sen. Mark Udall of Colorado said on CNN's "State of the Union" that he was not "convinced that the collection of this vast trove of data has led to disruption of plots" against the U.S. He also said he expects "the government to protect my privacy, and it feels like that isn't what's been happening."
The NSA was founded in 1952, but only years later was it publicly acknowledged, which explains the nickname, "No Such Agency."
The agency also includes the Central Security Service, the military arm of code-breakers who work jointly with the agency. The two services have their headquarters on a compound that's technically part of Fort Meade, though it's slightly set apart from the 5,000-acre Army base.
Visible from a main highway, the tightly guarded compound requires the highest of clearances to enter and is equipped with electronic means to ward off an attack by hackers.
Other NSA facilities in Georgia, Texas, Colorado and Hawaii duplicate much of the headquarters' brain and computer power in case a terrorist attack takes out the main location, though each focuses on a different part of the globe.
A new million-square-foot storage facility in Salt Lake City will give the agency untold additional capacity to store the massive amounts of data it collects, as well as adding to its analytical capability.
"NSA is the elephant of the U.S. intelligence community, the biggest organization by far with the most capability and (literally) the most memory," said former senior CIA official Bruce Riedel, who now runs the Brookings Intelligence Project.
NSA's experts include mathematicians and cryptologists, a term that means everything from breaking codes to learning and translating multiple foreign languages. There also are computer hackers who engage in offensive attacks like the one the U.S. and Israel are widely believed to have been part of, planting the Stuxnet virus into Iranian nuclear hardware, damaging Iran's nuclear development program in 2010.
NSA workers are notoriously secretive. They're known for keeping their families in the dark about what they do, including their hunt for terror mastermind Osama bin Laden. NSA code-breakers were an essential part of the team that tracked down bin Laden at a compound in Pakistan in 2011.
Their mission tracking al-Qaida and related terrorist groups continues, with NSA analysts and operators sent out to every conflict zone and overseas U.S. post, in addition to surveillance and analysis conducted at headquarters outside Washington.

"But mistakes do happen...", the agency admits. Oh, okay, then, that explains Benghazi, the IRS political targeting of opposition groups, Fast and Furious, the DOJ assault on the A.P. and individual journalists, and other government bureaucrats in the EPA, OSHA, and the FBI misconstruing the President's constant hateful rhetoric regarding anyone who dares to oppose his radical transformational agenda as a directive to go after them.
These guys only care about not being caught. And the corporate news media only want to publicize the story enough to attract readers, not enough to explain what is truly going on. I prefer the honesty of the Jack Nicholson character in "A Few Good Men":
"You want the truth? You can't handle the truth!" The truth is the American foreign policy depends upon brutal repression of the aspirations of millions of people overseas. Highly sophisticated technical intelligence and weapons systems, along with nearly a 1,000 overseas bases, impose a (not so) New World Order for the. Benefit of huge (not so) American corporations. And this globalization has hollowed out the American economy, leading to a collapsed standard of living for most middle and working class people who see their children will have it even worse.
Rather than build a relatively equal society, our elite have opted for growing inequality, combined with increased Big Brother surveillance and meaningless elections, sponsored by corporations, just as they sponsor sports events. Snowden has helped pull back the curtain and shown who is pulling the strings. Thanks, Snowden!
ironic that a president who promised to have an open government, bills available on line for citizens to read, and a transparent government has stonewalled the state department response on benghazi, ordered irs and epa harassment of conservative groups, forced health deform programs on americans, orchastrated voter fraud, expanded increased entitlement payments to core democratic voters and directed the nsa in monitoring of americans' communications.
animal farm and the trial all in one.

November 30, 2015
ATLANTA (AP) -- One child has been killed and three injured by gunmen firing into homes in the Atlanta area in the last month. No one has been arrested.
Atlanta police spokesman Carlos Campos tells The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the children were not targets; adults in the homes were.
The shootings began Nov. 3 when someone fired through the door of a home on Atlanta's southside, killing 2-year-old Ty-Teyanna Motley and injuring her infant brother, Isaiah Motley.
Then on Nov. 13, 8-year-old Ahijah Geffard was injured by one of six bullets fired into a home in Fairburn.
Then on Nov. 27, an Atlanta man ran into his apartment to get away from a robber with a shotgun. A shot was fired into the home, striking the man's 11-year-old daughter in the leg.

Japanese Technology from the Future Friday!
This week it's Sharp actually trying to save itself through product diversification (partially with strawberries), and Japan continues its multinational nuclear tech sharing deals (now India's in the mix) – it's the JTFF!
Welcome to Japanese Technology from the Future Friday:
It's already Friday west of the international dateline – here in Japan, it's totally the future. The weekly JTFF is our somewhat technosnarky coverage of 2-5 particularly important, specifically Japan-related tech stories. Get yourself hip to the micro & macro that went down while North America was sleeping – check in with Akihabara News every Friday morning and BOOM! Ahead of the game, you win.
:: JTFF – June 14, 2013 ::
• Sharp Making Good on Product Diversification Plans (partially with strawberries)
About a month ago, as part of a restructuring and "Hey guys, let's not keep losing billions of dollars (U.S.)" effort, J-tech giant Sharp announced plans to cut a bunch of expenses, trim some high-cost advisory fat (consultants), and weed out some not so useful executives – and they planned to diversify their goings on in order to supplement the most costly sectors their various product departments. Such plans are usually known as the "The Long Kiss Goodnight of a Hulking Japanese Technology Corporation – and by Long We Mean Decades." But only five weeks later, they're announcing plans to re-purpose already mature TV technologies (partly to grow strawberries at night), continue their automated cleaning projects, and do some other stuff with robots. So, go Sharp! And just remember, now is the time to do as Sony says they're going to do, not as they do. Oh, and don't laugh at the strawberry part of this – strawberries are huge cash over here. Like, shockingly. Look it up.
• Japan Continues Nuclear Proliferation (it's for energy)
Damn, almost every Friday there's another story about Japan's globetrotting nation-scale door-to-door nuclear sales deals. In previous JTFF installments we've mentioned Turkey, the UAE, and some French deals. The latest deal in power hungry India is being construed as a trilateral Japanese, French, American corporate move, and the source here pans on that and claims the corporate interests are loopholing around non-proliferation treaties. Perhaps, but hey – India still needs energy – and what's the alternative? More fossil fuels?
That was the JTFF, and live from the future – that is all.

So I want to install a red blinking LED (to simulate an alarm system) in my rear view mirror. I found this product at radio shack, however I want to wire it into my car's power supply instead of having to run it off batteries (http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2062571).
How would I go about doing this? Would I just a 9v resistor or is there a better way?

A three-time nominee for the Pushcart Prize, her poetry and short stories have appeared in the Tampa Review, Colorado Review and American Poetry Review.

Falmouth resident Mary Kane has published her first book, a collection of poems, which encompass a wide range of styles, lengths and subjects. Here's a sample, titled "Elspeth":
Late that Sunday the snow began
to stumble in earnest.
All the filled-in footprints
called out to the seamstress
who sat in her lamplight
remembering. It took some time
for the threads to unstitch themselves
but the sky needed its breath back
the wind needed its sadness
and the space between the stars
sounded like shame.

King Canute, attempting to teach his people a lesson regarding his abilities, supposedly went to the sea and commanded the tide to stop. Twelfth-century English historian Henry of Huntington wrote that Canute took his throne to the seashore, but the tide, "continuing to rise as usual dashed over his feet and legs without respect to his royal person."
President Barack Obama's naïve and error-riddled speech at Georgetown University on Tuesday clearly demonstrated that he is serious about trying to stop global climate change. However, like the tide, climate change is a natural event of such proportions that it is largely unaffected by human activities. Obama ignores that the "official climate science" on which he bases America's climate and energy policies has been washed away by 17 years without global warming, despite atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) — the gas Obama blames for rising temperatures — continuing to increase primarily due to the emissions of China and India.
Unlike America's hopelessly misguided president, the reasons behind Canute's action were sensible. He wanted to reduceunrealistically elevated expectations of him. Canute's goal was to show fawning courtiers that there were things over which he had no control. He knew the facts about tides. Sadly for our American friends, and indeed for the whole free world — which depends on a strong America — Obama lacks Canute's humility and knowledge about nature. The president's misunderstanding and his apparent disinterest in real climate science is leading the United States into an economic black hole from which it may take generations to recover.
