Reduced-power springs provide a 3.5 pound trigger pull when used with J.P. triggers, and a pull of 4.5 to 5 pounds when used with standard trigger components. Includes hammer spring, trigger return spring, and disconnector spring. Installation instructions also explain engagement surface polishing to obtain a smooth, reliable trigger.
This spring setup will give good ignition reliability with domestically manufactured ammunition and properly seated primers. Do not use foreign-manufactured ammunition because the primers in such ammo are often extremely hard and will give poor ignition with this spring kit. These springs are designed for recreational use ONLY and should NOT be installed in a Duty or Home Defense firearm where reliability is foremost.
SPECS: Steel, yellow-coded hammer and trigger springs. Paint may flake off.

- "No one wants to read about some ugly old Armenian warlock, even if he did save a village from werewolves. He'd look dreadful on the front cover. No dress sense at all."
- —Gilderoy Lockhart[src]
An Armenian warlock saved an entire village from a group werewolves, including possibly the Wagga Wagga Werewolf. Gilderoy Lockhart took credit for it and wrote a book, titled Wanderings with Werewolves, in which he claimed to have saved the village himself. Lockhart erased this warlock's memory with a Memory Charm to prevent him from "blabbing". Lockhart described him as "ugly" and "old" with "no dress sense".

Improper cleanup on thrown exception
From OWASP
This is a Vulnerability. To view all vulnerabilities, please see the Vulnerability Category page.
Last revision (mm/dd/yy): 09/25/2008
Vulnerabilities Table of Contents
Causing a change in flow, due to an exception, can often leave the code in a bad state.
- Implementation: The code could be left in a bad state.
Exposure period
- Implementation: Many logic errors can lead to this condition.
- Languages: Java, C, C# or any language which can throw an exception.
- Operating platforms: Any
Required resources
Likelihood of exploit
Often, when functions or loops become complicated, some level of cleanup in the beginning to the end is needed. Often, since exceptions can disturb the flow of the code, one can leave a code block in a bad state.
Risk Factors
In C++/Java:
public class foo { public static final void main( String args[] ) { boolean returnValue; returnValue=doStuff(); } public static final boolean doStuff( ) { boolean threadLock; boolean truthvalue=true; try { while(//check some condition){ threadLock=true; //do some stuff to truthvalue threadLock=false; } } catch (Exception e){ System.err.println("You did something bad"); if (something) return truthvalue; } return truthvalue; } }
In this case, you may leave a thread locked accidentally.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- Close to 80 people will be out of a job next month. This comes after International Paper announced plans for a permanent shutdown of one its printers that makes paperboard in Augusta.
Lori Williams has been working at a convenience store near the mill for almost two years. Williams says she's used to having employees from International Paper Mill starting their day with her.
"They're pulling on the doors before I even unlock them. I mean, they are in here day in and day out. From the time we open, 'til the time we close at midnight," she said.
Williams says she doesn't like to hear when people lose their jobs, but especially when she knows them.
"I hate the fact that they are going to lose their jobs. A lot of them have little kids and some of them have newborns. I talk to a lot of them every day," Williams said.
Williams isn't the only that hates to hear the news. Mayor Deke Copenhaver doesn't like it either but wants those effected to try and stay positive.
"I'm hopeful, as we been able to create 272 new manufacturing jobs in the local marketplace, that there will be the potential for them to take advantage of that," Copenhaver said.
The mill has been in Augusta for over 50 years and will still employ more than 700 people. Cameras weren't allowed in the meeting when employees were told about the layoffs, but the mill manager did talk to News 12 over the phone. He said it was a surprise for a number of employees.
Williams says the layoffs will also affect more than just the 75 people from the mill.
"It's probably going to slow us down quite a bit. A lot of our business is from the trailer park and behind us, but a lot of it is the plants," she said.
The mill manager says the announcement was not a pleasant message to present. He said that they tried to be as transparent as possible and give the employees the facts. The company will also provide severance to those affected and try to help them find other jobs.

The Highway Patrol has identified the people involved in a deadly car crash.
Troopers say 80-year-old Paul Clark was pronounced dead after running into the back of a truck that was being towed on Highway 264 West near Washington Friday. We're told that collision pushed the tow truck into a Toyota pickup in front of it, pinning tow truck driver Robert Mozingo between the two vehicles. Also injured was Marcus House, the driver of the Toyota pickup.
Troopers say Mozingo and House were trading information between the two vehicles in the center turn lane of Highway 264 when the accident happened.
Troopers say Mozingo was ultimately taken to Vidant Medical Center where he was listed in critical condition early Monday. House was taken to Vidant Beaufort Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Troopers say that it's not clear whether the 80-year-old man died as a result of the impact, or because of a health issue. Officials are awaiting word on that from the medical examiner.
The accident remains under investigation.

When it comes to caring for their eyes, men and women are very different. Women need to focus on maintaining their natural good looks and feminine beauty, while men need something completely different. As a man, you need to choose products that nourish and strength the skin around their eyes, and that is where the Anthony Eye Products line comes in. The Anthony Eye Products line has been scientifically formulated and designed from the ground up, with men in mind. Unlike so many products that simply use the same ingredients for men and women, the Anthony Eye Products line uses ingredients that have been proven to help men keep the skin around their eyes looking great, no matter what their age.
Caring for your eyes is obviously important from a vision point of view. But your eyes are about much more than how you see the world. Your eyes say a lot about you, and you want the message they convey to be a positive one. That is what the Anthony Eye Products line is all about.
All of the products available in the Anthony Eye Products line were designed to care for your eyes and the skin surrounding them naturally, and gently, giving you a youthful and vibrant appearance no matter what your age.
Keep your eyes protected and hydrated with Anthony Continuous Moisture Eye Cream. Nourishment and moisture is essential as you age, since that part of your skin is particularly prone to dryness. This eye cream helps you look your best, but it does much more than that. It actually nourishes your skin cells while firming and toning the area around your eyes.
Another great product in the Anthony collection is this moisturizer Anthony Eye Cream. This scientifically formulated product helps to soothe and smooth the delicate skin around your eyes, so you can get on with the rest of your day.
You may also want to consider this product for quick touchups; Anthony Action Rescue Eye Stick. This is the perfect tool for quick touchups on the go. You are busy, and you have plenty to do without worrying about lines and wrinkles around your eyes. With the Anthony Logistics Eye Stick, you can do a quick touchup on your way to that big meeting, or brighten up your look before your date arrives for the evening.
Whether you are in your twenties or your sixties, you want to look and feel your best from the top of your head to the tip of your toes. Building a quality skin care regimen can help you look years younger than your actual age, all while nourishing your skin and giving it the support it needs in a stressful world. Your skin is exposed to toxins and damaging chemicals every single day, but the products from Anthony can help you fight, and win, the battle against skin damage.

Undergraduate tuition and fees for one year (2015-2016 school year) is $30,250. Beyond tuition and fees, we estimate a student's budget for one year based on payment of room and board, personal expenses such as transportation, clothing, and books/art supplies.
Our budget estimates are based on the higher end resident housing costs and other miscellaneous costs. You may spend less than our estimates.
Other than tuition costs, expenses will vary greatly depending on personal preference and restraint. These costs are estimates – not expected costs.
|Tuition and fees for one year
|Art supplies and books (estimated)
|Housing (cost of MCA's most expensive housing facility)
|Food (estimated)
|Transportation (estimated)
|Personal expenses (estimated)
HOUSING COSTS (per year):

How to Apply for Institutional and Federal Aid:
To apply for MCA merit awards, a student need only submit all required application materials to be considered for institutional scholarships, grants, and work-study. Students will be notified of merit/portfolio awards along with acceptance replies. MCA awards are determined by the admissions review ranking.
Eligibility for Federal and State Aid is determined upon receipt of a completed Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Click here to apply online. Student and parent information is required on this form if the student is dependent (usually younger than 24). Only student information is needed if the student is considered independent. Memphis College of Art's institutional need grants are based on information from the FAFSA application as well.
The U.S. government offers Federal Pell Grants of up to $5,775 (for the 2015-2016 school year) per year. Federal SEOG grants, Federal student and parent loans, and Federal Work-Study are other forms of aid available to qualified students. Also, students may qualify for alternative educational loans.
Tennessee offers a state grant (TSAA) and Lottery Scholarship (TELS) to qualifying residents. Early applicants who qualify for a Federal Pell grant may also qualify for a TSAA grant and/or TELS grant. The TSAA budget is usually exhausted early in the year. Tennessee residents should submit a FAFSA before February 1, 2014 to be certain of qualifying.
Lottery Scholarship recipients must complete the FAFSA by August 1 and have a 21 ACT, 980 SAT or 3.0 GPA and graduate from a Tennessee High School. For more information on Lottery Scholarships you can go to http://www.tn.gov/collegepays/
Students may also be awarded Federal or College Work-Study through the admissions and financial aid process. An average yearly allotment of $500 is awarded allowing the student to work during the academic year and in some cases during the summer months. Work-study is paid in the form of a paycheck at a rate of $8.00 per hour for undergraduate students ($9.00 per hour for graduate students).
To complete and file the FAFSA form, students should go online to www.fafsa.gov
Additional information is available at studentaid.ed.gov.

Mwanza fans have been in hectic moment as the city's premier beauty pageantry is to be staged on Friday evening.
People from different corners of the city suburbs and beyond the borders are preoccupied with the event as hours are tickling.
Centrally located Gold Crest hotel is the venue to host the event as coordinator John Doto is spending sleepless nights.
Miss Mwanza winners during the 2008 and 2009 editions, Nasreem Karim and Miriam Gerald respectively, brought shockwaves to win the Miss Tanzania pageantry as they eclipsed the rest of contestants.
The success of the aforementioned duo is what keeps most of the fans that still there is more to come during the event on Friday.
Doto said almost everything for the show is on proper track and people are just standby as they await the D-day.
Most of the streets corners in Mwanza are dominated with the beauty contest as contestants have lined up to display their talents.
The ten contestants who have been confined within the Golf Crest hotel for the past ten days are Sabrina Hamad, Irene Karugaba, Jessica Innocent, Diana Robert, Ester Lawrence, Joella Lazaro and Judith John.
Others are Elizabeth Richard, Semen Steven, Lucy Lemes, Monica James, Zena Msekwa, Stella Charles, Neema Edmund, Elizabeth Zakaria and Kisura James.
The winner of Miss Mwanza would represent the region at the Miss Tanzania show expected to be staged in September under sponsorship of mobile telephone service providers, Vodacom Tanzania Ltd.
The Miss Tanzania event was revived in 1994 after a long spell since 1968 when the Government abolished the shows.
Previous winners of Miss Tanzania since the event was revived in 1994 are
Aina Maeda (Dar), Emily Adolf (Dar), Shose Sinare (Arusha), Saida Kessy (Arusha), Basila Mwanukuzi (Dar), Hoyce Temu (Dar ), Jacqueline Ntuyabaliwe (Dar) to mention a few.

Knowing Electronic Payers' Preferences and Habits Makes for Great Customer Relationships
Doing business on the Internet continues to grow in popularity. Consumers in all segments of society are comfortable with purchasing goods and services and making payments through various electronic channels.
A recent report by Javelin Strategy & Research found that 62% of consumers now pay bills online, and an additional seven million households are forecast to begin paying bills online by 2013. People are also increasingly comfortable with online bill presentment; 69% of consumers view their bills online and six million more households are forecast to start by 2013.
When it comes to paying the electric, gas, or water bill, however, people have been somewhat slower to go electronic and paperless. A sizable group of traditionalists still prefer to write checks and save their printed bills and receipts. In fact, more than half of utility payments were still paper in 2008, according to a report by Chartwell Inc.
The missionary work of winning over those check writers and enrolling them as fully electronic payers must continue for all billers, not just those in the energy industry. But bringing as many customers as possible into the electronic world is just the first step.
To get the best return on investment in an electronic payments solution -- and that means delivering that best customer experience at the lowest cost -- utilities need to deliver the levels of responsiveness and service that meet the needs of four different types of electronic bill payers that we have encountered:
- Convenience Seekers.
These categories are not inflexible. People move in and out of them with regularity. It may be something as troublesome as illness or a layoff, or as prosaic as an address change or an extended business trip, that moves a given customer from one segment to another.
Such movement, and the behavioral changes it engenders, can make it difficult on the utility company, who must be ready to adapt quickly to people's changing circumstances.
Additionally, needs and behaviors can vary within each segment even while the overriding attitudes are constant. But because payers do not stay in the same behavioral cubbyhole, the utility company must remain flexible and agile with the payment options that it offers.
To do the best job possible, both for business and for customers, your electronic payments solution should be able to address the full spectrum of payers' needs. To illustrate, let's examine the four behavior profiles of the different types of electronic payer, what it takes to serve them well, and why they are important.
Convenience Seekers -- The Low Effort Payers
All convenience seekers want their bill-paying experience to be one that requires little time and effort. When it's time to make the payment, they want to take care of it as quickly and as painlessly as possible. They don't want to go through a complicated process of authentication. The "choice payers" among them want to have a menu of payment options -- online, IVR, credit card, mobile web.
Some convenience seekers are fans of online banking, preferring to pay through the bank's web site so they can take care of many bills in a single online session. Others tend to like the IVR payment method, especially when they've waited until the due date and want to avoid a late fee. That is also why they value same-day posting.
Convenience seekers usually want to keep getting their statement in the mail. They are not yet fully enrolled, paper-free e-payers. But a lot of them will get there eventually, so make their experience as effortless as possible.
Relationship Builders -- Where Familiarity Matters Most
Relationship builders are, generally speaking, the most desirable and profitable class of electronic payers. They are the closest members of the company's "family." As such, they are the most readily approachable for matters relating to service management and possible cross-sell opportunities, and they are receptive to interactive, two-way communications.
These payers are the ones that use the web the most and paper the least, making them "green" and environmentally friendly. It costs less to present their bills because most of them will agree to turn off their paper bills. They tend to pay at the same time each month, often by automatic ACH deduction and in advance of their due date, which increases the billing company's cash flow and lowers its risk.
Relationship builders appreciate consistency and predictability, and they want to be valued and appreciated too. This means that they expect strong authentication requirements that will safeguard the personal and banking account information they have entrusted to the company.
Refund Receivers -- Be Quick, Thorough, and Accurate
Refund receivers are current and past customers who are due a refund or are carrying a credit balance. They value convenience and accuracy in their transactions. The best approach in these cases? Disburse the funds to them electronically, using the capabilities and information already resident in the electronic payment solution. This is less expensive and gets payments to customers much faster. It also spares them the aggravation of repeatedly entering or reciting such basic data as address and phone number, which can happen if there are systems from different vendors for incoming and outgoing payments.
Occasionally when refunds are due, escheatment laws -- which exist to ensure that property is not left in limbo and ownerless - come into play. They vary state by state and can be difficult to understand and to manage internally, especially if there are customers from several different states. Having a third party manage this part of the process can speed things up and help avoid legal snags.
Payment Avoiders -- Special Care Brings Financial and Reputational Rewards
Payment avoiders are customers who are chronically late and need more than just gentle prompting, and those who have missed one or more due dates and are struggling to keep current but cannot quite get there despite best efforts.
Shutting off the power or the gas is always an option for the former category of payment avoider. But it's a different story with the occasional late-payer, whose household may be operating with a "delinquency budget" in hard times. Offering these folks a way to make a payment arrangement that fits their budget is effective and appreciated by the customers. It can help them stay reasonably current. The utility makes fewer costly truck rolls; the customers avoid frustrating service interruptions.
There's a lot at stake here. Since the recession began, we have seen a rise in the percentage of late payers of all types of bills. Our survey of October 2008 showed that nine percent of households were 30 or more days late in paying their electric, gas, or water bill. This was a sharp increase of 18% from a year earlier. Additionally, five percent of surveyed households had their utility service shut off for non-payment. Charge-off rates within the utility industry increased 55% from 2006 to 2008.
The customer who is financially strapped will generally pay the mortgage first. Then come payments on other loans, insurance premiums, and utility bills. So the utilities, while fairly high in the pecking order, still have to compete with other vendors for their share of the customer's shrinking wallet. A flexible and responsive billing system can bring a measure of advantage in this competition.
Late payers who are making a sincere effort don't like to receive phone calls and dunning letters. They react more favorably when their biller is non-confrontational. The best way to do this is to give them ample information and financial advisories through electronic channels and have an online system that can do more than just accept payments.
Our survey of payment preferences by delinquent customers showed that 39 percent more households preferred paying delinquent bills by the web than paying regular monthly bills that way. The electronic payment solution should allow them opportunities to take steps such as updating contact information; setting up a payment arrangement; making a partial payment or a promise to pay; informing the company of a prior payment; or negotiating a payment amount.
Of course, not all customers stay delinquent. They will appreciate and remember any extra efforts to "work with them" through the rough patch. It will be even better if the billing system makes it easy and allows them to move back to the relationship-builder category in an effortless non-event.
In summary, not all electronic payers are equal. The best payment solutions cater to the different behaviors, preferences, and habits of the people who pay their bills through various electronic channels. Such a solution meets and serves the customer well at every stage of the billing cycle: from acquisition of the first electronic payment through full enrollment to paperless billing and payment status and, if needed, in times of delinquency or returning a credit.
Utilities that can provide their customers an integrated experience that addresses and adapts to meet those attitudes, preferences, and habits will reap the greatest financial payback from their investment in an electronic payment solution.

Defined in header
std::clock_t clock();
Returns the approximate processor time used by the process since the beginning of an implementation-defined era related to the program's execution. To convert result value to seconds divide it by CLOCKS_PER_SEC.
Only the difference between two values returned by different calls to std::clock is meaningful, as the beginning of the std::clock era does not have to coincide with the start of the program. std::clock time may advance faster or slower than the wall clock, depending on the execution resources given to the program by the operating system. For example, if the CPU is shared by other processes, std::clock time may advance slower than wall clock. On the other hand, if the current process is multithreaded and more than one execution core is available, std::clock time may advance faster than wall clock.
Return value
Processor time used by the program so far or (clock_t)(-1) if that information is unavailable.
On POSIX-compatible systems,
clock_gettime with clock id CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID offers better resolution.
The value returned by
clock() may wrap around on some implementations. For example, on a machine with 32-bit std::clock_t, it wraps after 2147 seconds or 36 minutes.
This example demonstrates the difference between clock() time and real time
#include <iostream> #include <chrono> #include <ctime> #include <thread> // the function f() does some time-consuming work void f() { volatile double d; for(int n=0; n<10000; ++n) for(int m=0; m<10000; ++m) d += d*n*m; } int main() { std::clock_t c_start = std::clock(); auto t_start = std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::now(); std::thread t1(f); std::thread t2(f); // f() is called on two threads t1.join(); t2.join(); std::clock_t c_end = std::clock(); auto t_end = std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::now(); std::cout << "CPU time used: " << 1000.0 * (c_end-c_start) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC << " ms\n"; std::cout << "Wall clock time passed: " << std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::milliseconds>(t_end - t_start).count() << " ms\n"; }

text: These beaded curtain panels are beautiful! Great quality beads and were the perfect addition to the main door for the Father Daughter dance at school. They were high enough that people didn't hit their heads on them and weren't as tempted to pull on them. Made a dramatic entrance. I hated to take them down after the dance. I used 3M Command Hooks to hang the curtain and it worked perfectly. Love them!

Postman Pat Feature Coming To Cinemas Spring 2013
Press Release from Classic Media
LONDON, UK (September 16, 2011) - Classic Media, a media company with a portfolio of some of the world's leading family entertainment brands, and RGH Entertainment, the animation development and production unit of Rubicon Group Holding (RGH), are proud to announce that Postman Pat will be making his big screen debut in 'Postman Pat: The Movie – You Know You're the One'. The announcement of the film, which will be released in CG 3-D Stereoscopic, is timed to today's celebration of Postman Pat's 30th birthday.
The renowned voice cast will be led by actor Stephen Mangan (Episodes, Green Wing, Dirk Gently) as Postman Pat. Academy Award and BAFTA Award Winner Jim Broadbent (Iris, Moulin Rouge!), Rupert Grint, who achieved international fame as Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter film series, and David Tennant (Doctor Who, Harry Potter) will join Stephen in bringing the world of Postman Pat to life on the big screen.
The film finds Pat, everyone's favourite postman, coming face-to-face with the temptations of money, status and a shiny new suit when he enters a national TV talent show competition that threatens to tear him away from his hometown of Greendale and the friends he loves. What happens when kindness meets selfishness? When local fame meets global notoriety? A nice cup of tea is kicked aside by a frappacappucino? Pat is set to find out as he falls for the age old temptation of the grass being greener…
The voice cast, all true Postman Pat fans, commented on working on the film. Stephen Mangan said, "I'm absolutely thrilled to be playing the world's best-known postman in his big screen debut - he's an iconic British hero and it's a great script. However when I excitedly told my 3 year old son that I was going to be Postman Pat, he said, 'No you're not, dad, don't be silly.'" Jim Broadbent noted, "I'm delighted and very excited to be involved with such an iconic figure as Postman Pat." Rupert Grint added, "I used to watch Postman Pat when I was a small boy. My brother and sisters all did at some stage. Postman Pat is one of those British symbols, I suppose - you are totally familiar with him and his cat, Jess even if you have never watched the series. How exciting to be part of the Postman Pat heritage."
'Postman Pat: The Movie – You Know You're the One' will be directed by Mike Disa (Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs. Evil) from a screenplay co-written by the award-winning Kim Fuller (Spice World, High Heels & Low Lifes) and Annika Bluhm, the long-time Producer of the Postman Pat television series. The film is being produced by RGH's Robert Anich and Miles Horst and Classic Media's Ceri Barnes and Annika Bluhm, with Rubicon's Randa Ayoubi and David Corbett and Classic Media's Eric Ellenbogen and Doug Schwalbe serving as executive producers.
'Postman Pat: The Movie – You Know You're the One' begins production this month and heads to cinemas Spring 2013. Ralph Kamp's Timeless Films is managing worldwide sales with Icon Film Distribution releasing the film in the UK and Eire.

Environmental quality has been a major public concern since the first Earth Day in 1970, yet the maze of environmental regulations enacted since has fostered huge government bureaucracies better known for waste and failure than for innovation and success.

Comments On Oct 13, 2015:Great little carrier for the easy access space inside the KTM air box. Just put a fitting screw underneath into your seat so the carrier gets located inside the air box. Some loop and hook tape makes is hold even better. I never take the whole carrier out anymore. Just pop the lid and the Velcro tape holds the rest up. To make it complete I carry a flat Tusk spark plug wrench in a zip lock bag underneath my cross bar pad cover. That little thing has saved me a few times a walk after I fouled a plug in the woods.

Comments On May 13, 2015:Not sure why so many bad reviews, but this product is great. Easily stores a spare plug, All I did is on my EXC rear airbox there is a hole for a bolt, Threaded a 8mm head bolt into hole and spark plug holder snaps right onto it. Done!

Comments On May 08, 2015:Could use instructions and a screw. It mounts to a molded boss on the bottom of the seat. I used a small screw with 6mm hex and built in washer from the "Bolt" european fastner kit. The hex on the screw is a little too tall and will need to be machined or ground down a little to fit the holer.
It also holds two spare fuses.
If it came with instruction and a mounting screw I would give it 5 stars.

Comments On Mar 10, 2015:Works great for protecting a spark plug, i threw it in my fender pack among tools and parts and don't have to worry about it getting damaged. I don't understand why people gave it bad reviews, it works just fine for me.

Comments On Oct 17, 2013:i ordered this thinking it would fit somewhere under the seat yeah i guess there is room for it but how do you mount it? and it's really bulky to carry a whopping one plug I have seen better two plug carriers that are not as big!
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Sep 04, 2013:This is probably the worst product I have ever ordered from Rocky Mtn. It is very cheaply built and the cap/lid isn't sealed so if I could mount it under the seat there is a good possibility that the plug could get dust and/or water on it. I can't find where under the seat that it could be mounted. A great idea though if only the quality was better.

Comments On Jun 03, 2013:i dont know why i bought this i guess i was board It does carry the plug

Comments On May 28, 2013:This thing is a joke! One of the cheapest product I have every seen. I will keep my plugs in the box they can in. Built like a disposable product.

|This article concerns a game that is unreleased.
Some details may be speculative, and may turn out to be incorrect.
Vasquez is a character in Grand Theft Auto V. She is a female police officer of the LSPD.
Little is currently known about Vasquez, other that she serves as a police officer in the Los Santos Police Department. According to the 2 stripes on her uniform she is the rank of Police Officer 3, the real life LAPD equivelant of corporal. Many people wrongly believe she is a sergeant however she is not. A Sergeant has 3 stripes whereas Vasquez has 2.
Also it is rumoured that Vasquez could possibly be a motor officer, as it is said her pants have a thin silver stripe on the side. However, it is more likely that this "silver stripe" is just the reflection of the sun. This suggests that she might be a regular patrol officer.
Telling by the name badge on her uniform she may be a character in the game or Rockstar might have taken time to put names on officers tags, but they might be repetitive.
- Vasquez is the second female police officer to appear in the series. The first is Barbara Schternvart from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
- Her Latino complexion and name indicate that she is a woman of Spanish or Hispanic descent.
- IMDB states that Vasquez will be voiced by actress Shari Albert however this has not been confirmed by Rockstar.

Cubs Clinch NL Central!
- Saturday September 20th – Wrigley Field
- Game (153): Cubs 5 – Cards 4
- Record (93-60) – Chicago Clinches NL Central!
- Magic No. – 0!!!
The skinny: For the first time in 100 years the Cubs have managed to reach the post season in consecutive seasons.
What a celebration after the game…players showering each other with champagne, the victory lap around the outfield, the block party on Clark and Addison!
And, as DeRosa said afterwards, "it never gets old."
Yes, it's a beautiful thing, indeed!
I talked about it Friday, Ted Lilly has been a big game pitcher for the Cubs all season, and he was again this afternoon too.
The lefty gets over-looked on a staff with Z, Harden and Dempster.
Zambrano always stirs our emotions, both good and bad, Harden's stuff is electric and Dempster's return to the rotation has been nothing short of spectacular.
Then, there's Lilly, the definition of a crafty left-hander, nothing out worldly, nothing flashy, but the guy wins big games.
Lilly was spot-on after the game too, saying this is what the team had in mind since spring training: win the division in front of the home crowd at Wrigley.
St. Louis' two errors cost them the game, Ramirez's stab on Pujols' liner in the fourth helped seal the division crown.
And, give credit to Lee's tag on the backend of that play as well.
Lou is right to point out that this Cubs team shouldn't burden the load of the Cubs' championship drought.
Sorry Lou, but there's no getting around it, you certainly can't live in the past, and you can't change it either.
And, until this organization goes all the way, the last 100 years will stick to the Cubs like a summer shadow.
However, I believe this Cubs team is up to the challenge of ending the championship curse.
Yes, Chicago winning the World Series can happen, it's is not impossible, despite what some Cubs fans might think.
Boston dealt with similar issues, similar pressures to win, yet has come out with two rings in the last four years.
No reason the Cubs can't do the same.
And, if the Cubs mimic its formula for success from this afternoon: strong starting pitching, timely hitting and solid defense; there's no doubt the club plays the last series in October.
During the post game interviews several Cubs mentioned the presence of Jim Edmonds in the clubhouse this season.
Like him or not, the guy is a true leader.
Edmonds gathered the team in the clubhouse after the game to remind them to keep their collective eyes on the prize.
When you've been to the summit and played to the level Edmonds has for the past two decades, your voice is heard.
And, Jim's left-handed bat will play a huge part in the Cubs' post season lineup as well.
Soriano, Theriot, Lee, Ramirez, Soto and DeRosa: all right-handed hitters.
Time to celebrate!!! See you tomorrow!
W – Lilly (16-9) – Wood (32)
L – Pineiro (6-7)
- Notes: For the first time since 1989 (93-69) the Cubs have won 93 games.
- Lilly's 16th win is a career-high.
- The lefty is also (3-0) vs. St. Louis this season.
- Great quote from LaRussa after the game: "They played the best all year, so they're the winners."

Miramar Air Show still on as of now, officials say
The Navy said Tuesday it will cancel all Blue Angels performances for the rest of 2013, saving $15 million to $20 million as the Pentagon looks for ways to tighten its belt.
The move, expected for weeks, means the flashy blue-and-gold F/A-18 jets won't appear as scheduled at the Miramar Air Show in October, but show officials said the three-day event is still on the calendar.
The Blue Angels will stay at their home base in Pensacola, Fla., and fly only enough to maintain pilot safety qualifications.
The Air Force's Thunderbirds aerial demonstration team also canceled all performances for the rest of the year.
Military officials had warned that this step was coming if sweeping federal budget cuts were triggered March 1. The Pentagon's $530 billion budget for 2013 was cut $43 billion by reductions known as sequestration.
"Recognizing budget realities, current Defense policy states that outreach events can only be supported with local assets at no cost to the government," the Navy said in a statement Tuesday.
"This is one of many steps the Navy is taking to ensure resources are in place to support forces operating forward now and those training to relieve them."
Some fans mourned the loss. The swooping, screaming jets that showcase American technology and military prowess are a staple of the Miramar show.
"I know they need to cut the budget, but not here," said Pat Bassett, who wrote to U-T San Diego. "So many people like this display. Plus, it is a great recruiting tool — even if it is a little boy or girl who will later become a Navy pilot or even a Blue Angel."
Others blamed the political battle in Washington.
"I believe the cancellation of the 2013 Blue Angel Air Shows is just another example of the complete dishonesty of the president and his administration in trying to present the effects of the sequestration in as bad a light as possible," said Bill Broadwell, a retired Navy captain.
The savings on travel, fuel and aircraft maintenance will cut the Navy performance team's usual $35 million budget roughly in half, said Lt. Aaron Kakiel, a spokesman at Naval Air Forces command in Coronado.
Air shows typically pick up some of the Navy's cost, but not all.
The Blue Angels were scheduled to perform at 35 events this year. Of those, two already took place, which makes the Key West, Fla., air show on March 24 the team's last appearance of 2013. Ten of those air shows were canceled by organizers in anticipation of the loss of the Blue Angels, which probably means a hit for the air show industry.
The Miramar Air Show usually attracts 500,000 visitors over three days. The free event at Miramar Marine Corps Air Station is known as the nation's largest air show. The Blue Angels often perform, but not always.
Spokesman Maj. Carl Redding said Tuesday the show will go on.
"The Blue Angels performance schedule doesn't drive the Miramar Air Show. As of now, we are still planning the 2013 air show," he said in an email.
The focus of the Oct. 4-6 event will be a demonstration of the Marine Corps' air-ground task force maneuvers, which usually include Marine Harrier jump jets and MV-22 Osprey aircraft.
Also continuing is San Diego Fleet Week, the nearly monthlong celebration of the military that culminates with the air show.
Alexandra Squires, executive director of the San Diego Fleet Week Foundation, said the San Diego event is a different creature than many other fleet weeks around the nation. It is orchestrated by a nonprofit foundation funded by corporate and individual sponsors, not the Defense Department.

This year's edition of the African Nations Cup in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea, has already provided some interesting talking-points, even though we are only one week into the highly coveted tournament.
For instance, one dominant theme that has emerged over the past week, is the realization amongst football fans that the hitherto yawning gap between the heavyweights and small fry of African football, while still formidable, is certainly shrinking.
This could plainly be seen in the way that giants such as Ivory Coast and Ghana, went about claiming unconvincing victories in their respective opening games against opposition who would be considered inferior, at least on paper.
In fact, it could even be argued that evidence of this shrinkage, came to light ahead of the big kick-off in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea, last weekend.
Consider the jaw-slackening fact that perennial title contenders such as Nigeria, Cameroon and defending champions, Egypt, all spectacularly failed to qualify for the ongoing prestigious championship.
This gradual shift in power in African football holds some important lessons for us here in Tanzania.
All too often in the past, we have adopted a defeatist attitude whenever we have been drawn in the same qualifying group with veritable titans of the African game.
Indeed, it could be said that we give up far too easily, which stands in contrast to the courageous example that has been set by so-called minnows such as Niger and Botswana.
Thus, as we prepare to face future challenges, it would be wise of us to draw inspiration from the fairy-tale sagas of these previously disregarded teams, who both qualified for the African Nations Cup, for the first time this year.
However, Botswana's sterling success was not achieved by an iron-will alone as they meticulously prepared for two years before embarking on their quest to qualify for the Nations Cup.
Thus, if their route to football respectability can pay dividends, why don't we emulate them?

September 24, 2013
After 40 years of serving in the military, including two spent as the 16th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Peter Pace, USMC (Ret.), has learned a thing or two about what it takes to be a leader.
He shared those insights on Sept. 24 at Fordham's Lincoln Center campus, when he delivered the Graduate School of Business Administration's Flaum Leadership Lecture.
Pace delivered "Leadership Biases," rich with anecdotes from his long and storied military career, to an audience that included a cohort of military veterans. He recalled how, as a second lieutenant serving in Vietnam, he radioed a commanding officer three times to ask which way he thought the patrol he was leading ought to be heading. Pace recalled that, on his asking the question a third time, his commanding officer responded with nothing but curse words.
"I promised myself that if I ever got chewed out again, it was going to be for going too far. If you are in a healthy organization and you are a young executive, that organization expects you to push out [on your own] a little bit, to make mistakes. That's how you learn," he said.
He came across another example in 1972. While working on his master's degree, Pace said he read about a young executive at who'd lost $10 million for his company.
"The senior executives wanted to fire this guy [but] the CEO said something that I never forgot. He said, 'Why would I want to fire someone I just paid $10 million to educate?'" Pace said.
"Now, if he makes the same mistake again, fine. But think about it. If you have subordinates who are honestly coming to work and doing their best, [even if] they're making mistakes, that's not all that bad."
On July 30, 1968, a member of Pace's squad was killed by a sniper while on patrol in Vietnam. Infuriated by his death, Pace said he called in an artillery strike on a village where the he believed the sniper had fired from. A subordinate, his platoon sergeant, shot him a look that made him reconsider—and sweeping through the village on foot, they found only women and children.
Pace said he didn't know how he could live with himself today had his subordinate's look not changed his mind.
"You will be morally challenged when you are the least emotionally prepared to deal with it. And if you don't pick your anchor right now and decide who you are, morally you will not respond the way you want yourself to," he said.
He said that many students may not remember most of what they're taught at the University "but you will have ia way of thinking, and a way of problem solving, and a way of envisioning things that you will [apply] through your entire life. It's not that you know exactly what you're going to do; it's that you know you have a moral compass."
Founded in 1841, Fordham is the Jesuit University of New York, offering exceptional education distinguished by the Jesuit tradition to more than 15,100 students in its four undergraduate colleges and its six graduate and professional schools.
