What are your plans for the scope?
How far do you shoot? Are you backpacking, horsepacking, truck hunting?
i have a 338 ruger 77 i plan on using for elk this year, its loaded with an older leapould scope but just aint happy with the scope. what do u guys recomend for a quality scope that i wont pay over 550 for? i love nikon, redfield i heard is making some great turns on thier optics, any feedback?
What are your plans for the scope?
How far do you shoot? Are you backpacking, horsepacking, truck hunting?
back packing, i usualy use my win 270 m70 but i drew an idaho's super hunt tag this year for elk and want to beable to reach out there a bit further and still cause damage if u know what i mean. im not a big fan of long shots, furthest id be shooting is 400 if no other way to get closer. way comfortable with my 270 though and am torn if i should just stick with it or go bigger just incase.
That is a great elk cartridge, and will work great for your uses. Just plan on getting some good range time with it.
If you want to get to 400 yards a holdover reticle could be really usefull. Lots of companies have them. I like a few of them including the HHR reticle from Sightron, Dead Hold BDC from Vortex, and the Rapid Z reticles from Zeiss.
You don't need much magnification to shoot accurately to 400 yards, or even farther, so something in the 3-9, 3.5-10, 4-12 range would be ideal I think. That will keep your exit pupils sufficient for calibrated reticle use in low light.
Here are three good options (not in any particular order):
Sightron S2 Big Sky 3-9X42 or 3-12X42 w/HHR
Vortex Viper HS 3.5-10X44 w/ Dead Hold BDC
Zeiss Conquest 3-9X40 w/ Rapid Z600
Redfield is an average budget scope. Similar to a VX-1
My son has a Zeiss Conquest 3.5-10x44mm with the Z600 reticle and that sure is a great scope and simple to use.
He also has a 4.5-14x40mm Leupold with the B&C reticle on a different rifle and it too is very user friendly. I am a huge Leupold fan, but the Zeiss is pretty darn sweet. BB knows his stuff when it comes to optics and gives good sound advise. These are two I like.

If you want to go cheap and rugged, try the Burris Fullfield II with Ballistic Plex reticle. I really like them I have two, One on a 270WSM and the other on a 300 WSM. I have not had any problems with them. They are bright, clear, and only cost about $200.00. They also come with a lifetime warranty. The drop compensator's go out to 600 yards for magnum calibers and 500 yards for non-mag calibers.
thanks guys helps alot
I have mentioned before that I am not a huge fan of Leupold's B&C reticle, but many are.
The other issue I have with VX-3 series is the variable eye relief. Eye relief varies almost 1/2" between the max and min magnification. That means a different cheek weld. It is my undertanding that the new VX-6 series has constant eye relief, but I haven't tested one yet, and it is well above the OP's price range.
The above Sightron varies about .2 inches, which is easier to deal with.
The Vortex and Zeiss have constant, long eye relief. They are really nice in that area.

Milwaukee, WI (Sports Network) - Junior Cadougan sank a 3-pointer at the
buzzer to force overtime and Vander Blue drained the decisive shot from beyond
the arc in the extra period as Marquette downed Connecticut, 82-76, in the Big
East opener for both teams.
Cadougan finished with 18 points, while Davante Gardner also dropped in 18 and
Blue followed with 13 for Marquette (10-3, 1-0 Big East), which won its third
straight game.
Shabazz Napier finished with 29 points, eight rebounds and four assists for
the Huskies (10-3, 0-1), who had a four-game win streak snapped.
Ryan Boatright had 16 points and Deandre Daniels netted 11 in defeat.
Marquette shot just 30.3 percent from the floor in the first half and went 0-
for-9 from beyond the arc in the frame, but received 12 points off the bench
from Gardner and went 10-for-14 from the foul line to carry a 30-27 advantage
into the break.
The Huskies, meanwhile, connected on 42.9 percent of their shots in a back-
and-forth opening 20 minutes that saw neither team take a lead larger than six
The Golden Eagles opened the second half with seven straight points to open up
a double-digit lead before Connecticut responded with an 11-3 run to get back
within 40-38.
Marquette answered with a 12-4 push to retake a 10-point lead, but the Huskies
again fought back with a 15-5 trek to knot the game at 57-57 with 7 1/2
minutes left in regulation.
It remained a one-possession game from there as the teams traded baskets and
after Boatright's jumper gave Connecticut a 69-66 edge with five seconds
remaining, Cadougan calmly dribbled the ball down the court and sent up a shot
from the right wing that fell through as time expired to force overtime.
Scoring was scarce through the first three minutes of the extra period as all
each team could muster was an opening jumper by Cadougan that was later
followed by an Omar Calhoun 3-pointer to give the Huskies a 72-71 advantage.
Blue's triple with just under two minutes left in the game put Marquette on
top for good and Jamil Wilson followed with a layup on the Golden Eagles' next
touch for a 76-72 lead with 47 seconds remaining.
Connecticut would get no closer than two points from there as Marquette closed
out the game at the foul line.

There is a lot of cycling going on in the Netherlands. In no other country in the world with similar levels of prosperity do people cycle this much. The Dutch cycle mainly because they find it a comfortable and reliable means of transportation: 84% of Dutch people have a positive opinion about the bike. Of the regular cyclists 95% considers it positive and even more than half of non-cyclists have a favorable opinion. Dutch give the bike the following qualities: quiet, no aggravation, be by yourself, no delays, always on time and it's cheap. Independence and flexibility are highly valued, only slightly less than the car (Source: Min. I & M KIM)Photo 'Dutch Biker'. Courtesy (cc) of 'Stuck in Customs'.
A quarter of all our movements and a third of all trips up to 7.5 km are by bike. That's more than 4.5 billion annual bike rides. In doing so, we cover 15 billion km. On average, a Dutchman rides 300 journeys every year, well over 900 km. In total, the Dutch cycle nearly 200 billion kilometers every year. 75% of all journeys are by car, 9% by train, 8% by bike, 3% by bus, tram and subway, 2% on foot and 3% by other means (moped, motorcycle, etc.)Photo '...Weekend...'. Courtesy (cc) of AmsterS@m - The Wicked Reflectah.
Who cycle? In the Netherlands almost everyone cycles: young and old, men and women, rich and poor, car owners and those without. 13.5 million Dutch people (84%) have one bike, or more (est. total of 18 million bikes). Women cycle slightly more often than men, natives far more than immigrants.Photo 'School Bus The Dutch Way'. Courtesy (cc) of Akbar Simonse.
When do Dutch people cycle? Dutch people cycle a lot. Of course there is more cycling in the summer than in the autumn and winter. But cycling rates also vary between days of the week. On an average working day, 5 million people make an average of 14 million cycle journeys. Monday and Thursday are the top days with a million more journeys than on the other days of the week. On Saturday, 11.5 million cycle journeys are made, and on Sunday 6.5 million. Through the week, between 8 in the morning and 6 in the evening, more than a million cycle journeys are made each hour. The high point is between 8 and 9 in the morning with 1.75 million cycle journeys during the hour. In that hour, many journeys to work and school are made, and more bicycles are in use than cars. Cycling on a typical week-day:David Hembrow picked up on all of this as well (naturally) and he continues:
"The scale of cycling in the Netherlands is quite phenomenal. If you go out, at any time of the day or night, you're not unusual, but are joining with a mass of other cyclists making their journeys. It's impossible to travel far on a bike without seeing other cyclists. I don't think I've ever made it further than 200 metres from my home (in a 100 m long cul-de-sac) before seeing at least one bike. Riding a bike is not in any way a political statement. It's just normal.Photos '(T)Rusty Companion' & 'A Bike's A Bike' by Amsterdamize.
The figures above are national figures, applying to the whole country. The Netherlands has a population of 16.7 million people. That's just twice the population of London or New York. However, the cycling rate of the country as a whole is far higher than that of cities in other countries. By comparison, treating the country as a "city", the people here are spread out at a remarkably low density of just 400 per square kilometre, vs. 4800 per square kilometre in London or 10000 people per square kilometre in New York.Photo 'L1020421'. Courtesy (cc) of Guido van Nispen.
However, despite having the advantage of high density and the resulting short journey lengths, neither of these cities manage more than a small fraction of the cycle usage of this whole country. London has only around 2% of journeys by bike, and New York even less at only around 0.6% of commutes. In neither of those cities would you find masses of school children riding at any time. (more about population density and cycling)Photo 'Dutch Family'. Courtesy (cc) of danihernanz.
The difference comes down to infrastructure which invites you to cycle. Cycling is not a difficult thing to decide to do in the Netherlands. I've several posts about what brought this level of cycling about. Key to it all is of course a high degree of subjective safety."Photo 'Amsterdam Cycle Chic'. Courtesy (cc) of Mikael Colville-Andersen.
How far do we cycle? An average bike ride is a little over 3 km and takes a little less than 15 minutes. 75% of all bike rides is less than 3.7 km. Between 1 and 4 km, the bicycle is the most important means of transportation. Up to 1 kilometer walking is the primal mode, and when traveling over 4 km the car is dominant. For distances up to 20 km people cycle more than they take the train or bus.Photo 'Street'. Courtesy (cc) of Hans van Reenen
Are you faster by bike in the city? In the city, people on bikes arrive at their destination on average 5% faster than car drivers. In larger cities (more than 100,000 inhabitants) they are 10% faster. For trips with distances up to 3 km the bicycle almost always wins, usually not up from 4 km. That's including parking and walking to the entrance of your destination (Source: Fietsbalans-2).Photo 'Parking.....". Courtesy (cc) of Iam sterdam.
How important is the bike for our travel needs? For most purposes the bicycle is an important means of transportation. For example, the bicycles accounts for half of the trips to school and university, one quarter of trips to work and over one quarter of the trips to the store. Reasons for using a bicycle for transportation: Going to work: 25% Business appointment: 11% Services/personal care: 18% Shopping: 28% School: 50% Visiting: 21% Social, recreational, other: 31% Touring/hiking: 16% Other: 26%Photo 'Amsterdam'. Courtesy (cc) of Bart van Dijk.
Can cycling grow further? The bicycle competes very well with other modes for short distances. 70% of all trips are shorter than 7.5 km. Of all car trips, more than 50% are shorter than 7.5 km. For most people that's less than an half hour of cycling. A big portion of that can easily be replaced by bike trips. The major differences in bicycle use between municipalities show that there are big gains to be made.Photo 'Marching Band, Dutch-Style'. Courtesy (cc) of happyrach8.
How healthy and safe is cycling? Several studies show that sufficient exercise reduces the risk of health problems. In the long run exercise reduces risk of mortality by 20-30%, ± 40% risk reduction in coronary heart disease, 20-25% risk reduction in heart strokes, ± 40% risk reduction in diabetes mellitus type 2 and 20-40% risk reduction in breast cancer. The short term effects include lower risk of depression, increased quality of life, improved fitness and decrease in (severe) obesity. (Source: VU) Cycling is a great way of moving. And although in the cities a cyclist is exposed to dirty air and runs the risk of an accident, the positive effects of cycling outweigh these by far.Photo 'Lovers on a bike'. Courtesy (cc) of Iam sterdam.
The bicycle is a safe means of transport in the Netherlands. The risk of a person on a bicycle becoming victim of a serious traffic incident in the Netherlands is the lowest in the world. There are two major reasons: the creation of separate infrastructure for cycling and the large number of people on bicycles.Photo 'Man with bass and dog'. Courtesy of Bart van Dijk.
What are the costs for bicycle infrastructure in the Netherlands? Every year, the Dutch government (national, regional & local) spends over 400 million euros on cycling infrastructure. Per kilometer traveled by bicycle that is as much as Flanders (Belgium) and Denmark combined. 400 million includes operating bicycle parking facilities, but excludes the establishment of infrastructure in new residential areas and major maintenance and renovation of old areas. (Sources: Fietsberaad, MON)Photo 'The Nanny'. Courtesy of Iam sterdam.
How many paths are there in the Netherlands? According to the latest census of the Central Bureau of Statistics from 1996 the Netherlands had 17,075 km of separated bicycle paths and 1909 km of on road bicycle lanes. An analysis of the digital maps of the Cycling and Bicycles Routes in the Netherlands shows that there are currently actually over 29,000 km of separated bicycle paths and 4700 km of on road bicycle lanes. (Source: Fietsbalans 2).Photo 'Rain is upon us'. Courtesy (cc) of Gurugo.
How many bicycles are there in the Netherlands? There are an estimated 18 million bicycles in the Netherlands. 13.5 Million people of 4 years and older (84%) own on average 1.3 bicycles. Every year, about 1.3 million new bikes are sold with a total value of nearly 1 billion euros. Half of all sold bikes are regular touring or city bicycles. In recent years, the sales of electric bikes spectacularly. The average price spent on a new bicycles in retail stores (including supermarkets) in the Netherlands is 750 euros. In specialty bike shops people spend on average over 900 euros on a new bicycle.Photo 'Amsterdam - Girls going to college'. Courtesy (cc) of Stephane Pironon. 'Two Tongues Do Not Make A Right' & '1+1 Own The Lane. By Amsterdamize.
How many bikes are stolen annually in the Netherlands? Fear of theft is an oft-cited reason for motorists to take the car on short distances. (Source: CCV) The actual number of bicycle thefts per year is not clear, since not all bicycle thefts are declared with the police. In two different studies the CBS made an estimate of the real extent of theft. Under the old method theft fell from 909,000 in 2005 to 541,000 in 2009. The new and reliable method revealed a much higher theft rate: in 2008 858.000, in 2009 a 4.5% increase to 897,000.Photo 'Cycling in style'. Courtesy (cc) of sindändùne.
How fast do people cycle? Most people cycle at a fairly steady pace: between 15 and 18 km per hour. Obviously this can be done faster. The absolute world speed cycling record(behind a car as pacemakers) was clocked at 269 km/h in 1995, achieved by Dutchman Fred Rompelberg. On a recumbent bicycle, the Canadian Sam Whittingham reached a speed of 133 km/h in 2009.Photo 'Bicycle, Amsterdam'. Courtesy (cc) of SimonWhitaker. Photo 'Eddie and kids', summer & winter. Courtesy (cc) of henry in a'dam.
Doesn't it rain too often to cycle? According to statistics of the KNMI it only rains 6.5% of the time. The longer you're outside of course the more likely you'll get wet from the rain. Being outside for about one hour, getting wet has a probability ranging from 0.09 in May to 0.16 in December.Photo 'Giro d'Amsterdam on a Friday afternoon'. Courtesy (cc) of hoofdweg. Photo 'P5197478-Edit'. Courtesy of El-lvis. Update: Inspired by these figures, Mark Wagenbuur sat down at his editing suite and created this must-see video. I reckon this is a powerful tool and inspiration for any advocate or supporter of cycling in general to get the message across of what's possible: Bicycles came, saw, conquered, got beleaguered (1950-1970), needed 'a little' help & overcame (1975-present day). Elsewhere, it's happening now. Some places experience revolutionary changes, others more evolutionary ones. Growing pains are a small price to pay for all these big gains. N'est pas? Photo 'Framed | 'Adjust'' by Amsterdamize. For closure, here are two of my own videos I made a few years back, timeless enough to keep spreading, imho.

Ceramics by Derik Spoon at Reflection Gallery in November
HANCOCK, MI -The Finlandia University Reflection Gallery, Hancock, will host a ceramics exhibit by local artist Derik Spoon from November 1 to November 30, 2012.
An opening reception for the artist will take place at the gallery on Thursday, November 1, from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. The reception is free and open to the public; refreshments will be served.
Spoon's exhibit, "Live Through This," is a collection of ceramic art that illuminates his fascination with disassembly.
Before he studied art, Spoon worked as a bicycle mechanic, a job in which he needed to determine what worked and what didn't. To do this, he learned to disassemble objects and diagnose problems through evaluation of those individual bicycle components. Now he now applies those skills to his art.
"Everything that I make is taken from the aspect of breaking down the piece as a whole and then assembling it from parts," says Spoon. "My hand-built ceramic pieces are indicative of this process. They are sketched out and broken down mentally before I touch the clay."
Spoon, who teaches ceramics at Finlandia University, has also worked as a slip-casting and ceramic glaze technician and taught ceramics at Tacoma Metro Parks, Open Arts Studio, and Manitou Arts Center.
The Reflection Gallery is located on the second level of Finlandia's Jutila Center campus, 200 Michigan Street, Hancock, MI 49930.
For additional information, call 906-487-7500 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

I have my own thoughts on this, but I am looking for a wider sampling of thought on the subject.
In the Desolation RPG core rules, the difficulty of using magic manifests as a painful and exhausting experience they call Burn. Burn taken from spell casting is described as being a form of Non-Lethal Damage.
In the description of Necromancy, one of the primary effects is restoring health lost to lethal and non-lethal damage from injury and fatigue.
If a group in a Desolation game were to have two spell casters, one of whom practiced Necromancy, (social issues and prejudices aside), would you rule that the Necromancer could, if willing, use their art to 'heal' the other caster's Health Levels lost to Burn?

Facebook is notorious for making updates that send the vast majority of its users into a panic. It's not that they are bad updates, it just seems that most people hate change and will fight it for as long as they can. That's why Facebook often puts a date on when the updates will be made for you, whether you like it or not.
The date for Facebook Timeline for pages is March 30, 2012.
That means if you procrastinate and don't get your page ready, it might look a little something like this when you stroll into the office on Monday morning:
Before you start trying to get your page converted, here's what you need to know and understand about Timeline for pages:
1. Cover images are replacing landing pages – This is a huge change. This means that businesses can no longer set their pages up to have non-fans land on a custom landing page that tells them why they should "like" the page (also known as "fan-gating"). No biggie, you can just put that type of info right on the cover image… right? Wrong (see #2). The nice thing about the new cover images is that it gives a lot more space to get creative (815 x 315 px). Here's an example of what the new cover images look like:
2. Cover images have strict guidelines – Facebook has made it pretty obvious that they don't want businesses blatantly promoting anymore on their site (they want them to pay for advertising instead). In my opinion this is a good thing and will help weed-out some of the spammy business pages. Here's a snapshot of some of the restrictions:
3. Your applications will still exist, you just have to prioritize them – You are allowed to have up to 12 custom applications, four of which will show up as featured applications just below your cover image. We came across this company that has a good way of making their applications stand out with the new layout:
4. Take advantage of the new "Milestones" feature - This gives you the ability to go back and showcase different milestones of achievements your business has had (first hire, first dollar of profit, various levels of growth, etc.).
5. Personal profiles can now message business pages – With the new messaging feature, profiles can now private message a Facebook page. A page cannot initiate a conversation or message with someone, they can only respond to messages initiated by a profile.
Our suggestion would be to get started on optimizing your new page ASAP. Facebook gives you the opportunity to preview your page prior to publishing. This allows you to customize it and get it ready prior to taking it live. Take advantage of that opportunity.
Good luck!

Hello there,
I am a recent graduate with a Bachelor's in Environmental Science, but I have been taking cartography and GIS classes for the last couple of semesters and find myself very interested in both topics. I will have quite a bit of free time while I am doing my job search, so I hope to spend a lot of time on mapping projects (and on this site). I hope to get to know this community and the topic of mapping better!

Nunez Makes His First M.L. Start
The Royals hand the ball to Leo Nunez tonight against Boston, giving the young right-hander not only his first big league action this season, but also his first career Major League start.
Last season, Nunez, 23, had four stints with the Royals but racked up just seven appearances – and a 4.73 ERA (13.1 IP, 7 ER) – out of the bullpen. In two seasons with the Royals, Nunez has tossed in 48 games and holds a 6.99 career ERA (67.0 IP, 52 ER). A Spring Training ball to the wrist put him on the D.L. to start this season and he has been recovering/rehabbing since. With Double-A Wichita, the righty made five starts, going 1-0 with a 0.54 ERA (16.2 IP, 7 H, 1 ER). He struck out 10 and walked five, limiting opponents to a .132 average against him. Nunez then trekked North and made three starts with Omaha, posting a 1-1 mark with a 2.25 ERA (16.0 IP, 12 H, 4 ER). He had 14 strikeouts and walked only two. His last pitching appearance was this past Thursday when he tossed two innings of scoreless relief for the O-Royals against the I-Cubs.
Nunez is replacing the injured John Thomson in the starting rotation and becomes the 10th starting pitcher we've used this season.
Tonight, first pitch is 6:05 p.m. on RSTN or Sports Radio 810 WHB.
4 Comments
I thought Nunez was scary in the first couple innings, giving up some sky balls that sailed to the warning track. But he got some good defense and started to settle in. And man, doncha just love it when the Royal bats do their thing and you don't have to sweat for nine innings? Very handy when you've got bets with a legion of Sox weenies.
I was at the game last night, left field right on the monster, and it was nice, because I could tell that the hits weren't going over. It was awesome to watch the Sox fans crumble as they couldn't take watching the Royals beat them up. they are weenies. Nunez was awesome, on first ML start ever, and the bats were hot, after the third! A great game to be at, especially on my anniversary!
So it's official: I'm the only Royals fan who hasn't been to Kauffman. I hang my head in shame.
It was great watching the Royals beat the Sox in games 2 and 3. Living in Maryland (Orioles' country), I get to follow the Royals on MLB.TV. It's the next best thing to being there at the K. Go Royals! Beat the Tigers this weekend.

The owner of the Pet Stop in Moundsville was charged with animal cruelty after allegedly failing to treat several puppies with parvovirus.
According to the criminal complaint filed against Conrad, three puppies were purchased from the shop from Dec. 15-21, including two Chihuahuas and a beagle, that had contracted parvovirus and became sick.
According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, parvovirus is a highly contagious viral disease that produce a life-threatening illness.
All of the puppies later died, the report stated.
One customer received a refund after bringing a Chihuahua puppy back, but according to the complaint, Conrad failed to give that puppy the necessary medical treatment after it came back to the store.
Two other customers reported accruing expensive veterinary bills after getting their puppies treated several days after they were purchased.
A pre-trial conference for Conrad will be held at 2 p.m. Feb. 4 in Marshall County.

With the 124th Map of the Week we take a look at the mercenary camp in the Auðarhome enclaves. Humans who approach the camp north of Mineville and the mining area well may be astounded at what they see. Few humans have ventured into mountainous areas to see the works of the giants.
Count Arnot's mercenary band is based in the remains of a fortress that the Auðar stone giants built as a defense againt the Æsir Empire, which had spread out rapidly beneth the giants'mountains across the Fjörm. The Æsir did, in fact, make no incursions into or threats against the Midworld Mountains land of the Auðar. Nonetheless, the giants used the fortress to keep an eye upon the Æsir. Some years after the fall of the Æsir Empire, the Auðar abandoned the Southern Eye Fortress, as they called it. It fell into a state of disrepair then, but the giants restored much of it and used it again as an observation point when Aleksandra and her Slovanian followers from Windland claimed the abandoned southern lands of the Æsir. They maintained the watch there until some 20 years before Count Arnot sent his followers across the Fjörm to explore the nearby parts of the mountains. By that time, the giants had abandoned most of their holdings in the Midworld Mountains. Arnot's followers found most of the fortress intact and in relatively good condition. Some repairs needed to be made of course, but they were less extensive than modifications that were necessary for humans to make good use of it. On first sight, the fortress and its buildings appear to be not only huge but also overdimensional. The main gate complex and the smallest structure in the fortress are 100 feet/30 m wide. The horse stables are 200 feet/60m wide, and the main barracks is 275 feet/82.5 m wide. The buildings all have ceilings on each story that are 20 feet/6 m high. Doorways all are at least 15 feet/450 cm high. It becomes quickly clear that these structures were built by stone giants, with an avereage height of 10 to 12 feet/3 to 3.6 m, rather than for humans, with an average height between 5 and 6 feet/150 to 180 cm. All of the buildings have walls of cut mountain rock 1 yard/meter think. They are roofed with large tiles of limestone, a type of roofing unknown in human settlements of the northwestern jörð. For the most part, the gigantic dimensions of the fortress' structures produce only unnecessary spaciousness for the humans who occupy it today, but some structural elements, particularly the stairways, were problemmatical. All of the stairways were made of steps a foot/30 cm high. Humans can climb and descend such stairways, but the height of the steps leads to accidents. These things led Count Arnot to send master stonemason Roland and his crew from Mineville into the fortress to remodel. Most of the 200 mercenaries in the fortress all in service to Count Arnot and Baron Lubo are former soldiers who were on the losing side of battles between noble houses in Vétrnývlast. Their commander is the 44-year-old human male warrior Ilja. However, equally important in rank is his mistress and war wizardess, the 42-year-old human female Adéla.
1. The Gate. The only known entrance to the fortress.
2. Command House. Ilja and Adéla live in this building. Ilja also has his command center here, and Adéla her wizard's workshop.
3. Stable. the mercenaries' horses as well as horses and wagons of the teamsters from Distant Trails Trading Co. are kept here.
4. Barracks, Canteen and Store. Only a part of this huge building is used. The mercenaries live here and transient teamsters from Distant Trails Trading find accomodations in the open sleeping bay. The mercenaries take their meals in the canteen, which is open at all hours and also serves as something of a tavern. It also is used by the visiting teamsters who bring supplies and goods for the store to the fortress. The store is a small shop where the mercenaries can buy personal goods.

Returning gifts without a receipt can be a hassle but there are ways to make things go more smoothly.
First of all, don't delay. If the item you're returning has already been marked down, you may only get a refund or store credit for the sale price.
Secondly, bring a valid piece of identification. Many retailers required a driver's license or other identification to help prevent fraud.
And if you're prone to losing receipts join the growing number of shoppers who get receipts electronically. Many retailers offer email receipts. Smart phone apps like Lemon Wallet also have a feature where consumers can photograph and store receipts.

I have what I'm hoping is a very simple issue/question. I am running zimbra Release 8.0.1.GA.5438.UBUNTU12.64 UBUNTU12_64 FOSS edition on a hobby linode (just pointing out this is non production).
I've added my zimbra user email account to my iPhone (connecting via IMAP). However whenever I try to send email from the iPhone I see the message:
"Cannot Send Email
The connection to the outgoing server "mail.mydomain.com" failed. Additional Outgoing Mail Servers can be configured in Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars."
For both settings Host Name and SMTP on the iPhone I have the same setting: mail.mydomain.com
The zimbra instance on the web functions perfectly, and I'm wondering if I need to set any additional settings to get this to work. I'd also like to get a mutt config working with my zimbra server which I plan to post about separately, but I'm guessing the issues I'm having may be related.

Pregnant victim in well remains a mystery | Crime
STOCKTON, CA - It was a late night more than two decades ago when convicted killer Wes Shermantine picked up a very pregnant prostitute off of Wilson Way.
This is the story bounty hunter Leonard Padilla said was told to him by Shermantine in March. Padilla said the story didn't end well for the woman.
Shermantine allegedly drove her out to Linden to a well on Flood Road. His friend Loren Herzog and another man were waiting.
"They took her and Loren tied one hand to barbed wire, the other man held on to her other hand," said Padilla, retelling the gruesome details Shermantine told him over the phone from San Quinton's death row.
"And Loren and this other individual were cutting on her, cutting on her belly. He said she was screaming. She was wailing and hollering."
Shermantine said he witnessed the savage attack on the woman, before going to his truck to get his .357 firearm.
"I can't remember whether he said Loren killed her or he did by shooting her in the chest. Then she was toppled into the well," Padilla said.
Padilla and his team first believed the pregnant woman could have been Paige Lawrence. Lawrence was a 24-year-old woman who disappeared from Sacramento in 1986. Padilla said she could have been in Stockton that night.
The bounty hunters are also looking at several other missing women and girls: One from Stockton, one from Pennsylvania, and a few from the Bay Area. Padilla said there should also be a ring with initials found inside the Linden well. He hopes the ring could shed light on the identity of the unknown victim.
Stockton police said former vice detectives from the 1980s don't have records on a pregnant prostitute, and the sheriff's office was still investigating all possibilities.
In the meantime, Shermantine is balking on helping any more, until he gets what he was promised from Padilla.
'Somewhere between my credit card and his cell is where that TV is," said Padilla, regarding on the items he ordered for Shermantine.
"Some of the candy bars are there. I don't get upset at him because he gets upset with me. I understand."
Padilla plans to pay up everything promised to Shermantine, but he says Shermantine has the time to be patient. It's the victims' families who shouldn't be kept waiting to have their loved ones returned.

Tallahassee, FL - When it comes to concussions both colleges of medicine at FSU and UF are working together with what they call at Health Impact study.
They're working to enhance the way head injuries are tested when it comes to cognitive impact.
"I know this has been neglected, you may do a head scan, but this is assessing how the kid's thinking is affected in terms of trying to detect the milder head injuries that we know now are very serious," said Myra Hurt with the FSU College of Medicine.
They're doing a trial with hundreds of athletes from the Tallahassee area and the Orlando area. The research has been going on for two years. Hart says they'll release data in the next few months.

COLLINSVILLE, Ill. (KSDK) - Illinois State Police confiscated more than $1.5 million during a traffic stop in Collinsville last weekend involving a 62-year-old southern Arizona woman.
According to Sgt. Mike Link, a state police spokesman, a District 11 trooper patrolling southbound Interstate 55 stopped a 2004 white Volvo convertible for improper lane usage with an illegal license plate cover.
Link said the trooper grew suspicious during conversation with the driver and requested permission to search the vehicle. The driver consented to a search and the trooper located 27 vacuum-sealed plastic bags containing $1,589,860 in American currency.
Illinois State Police believe large amounts of cash such as this are connected to illegal drug trafficking.
The driver of the vehicle, identified as Carole Galvez of Gila Bend, Arizona, was charged with money laundering and incarcerated at Madison County Jail in Edwardsville on $500,000 bond.
If convicted, Garole Galvez faces four to 15 years in prison.
Gila Bend, Arizona is located about 100 miles north of the US-Mexico border.

celestron cg-5 or clone
Posted 28 April 2009 - 10:11 PM
Ive had one of the konus made cg-5 clones before and it was ok but tripod legs were a bit small.But I can buy one of these new for $180 and then buy a nice wooden tripod or 2" diameter legged tripod and have a decent cheapsettup with dual tracking motors.
Or I could just go for the celestron goto cg-5. Never seen one or used one so dont know if they function any better than the clone cg-5 I had. Goto is not important but would be nice I guess to have. Do these perform better than the konus cg-5 clones? Can they handle more weight?
And can they be laptop controlled?
So I could have the clone setup for around $300
Or about double that and go with the celestron
Anyone have experience with both

If I buy the SV102D (possibly a SV110ED), I'll need something to put it on.
When is your CG-5 coming back from Celestron? What was the reason it had to go there? (If ya don't mind my askin'.)
Gotta sell my Hasselblad first. It's on AM, but nobody's buyin it so far. Next, I have to pay for my eye surgery.
Then I'll be hot to trot. Couple weeks.

I have a SV102ED, and have used it on a Orion SkyView Pro mount (Eq-4), which has tubular steel legs a little thinner than on the CG-5 (1.75" on the SVP and 2" on the CG-5) for visual only and it was fine. Should be better if anything on the CG-5. However I do visual only, and defer to others on its fitness for Astro Photography with a SV102ED. However the SV102ED is about 13 pounds with standard accessories so a CG-5 should do fine.
(NOTE: A friend of mine once got a Celetron CG-5 that was not a goto and said it was defective and too shaky. These do exist, and they have slo mo manual controls unlike the goto model)

|To bean or not to bean?
|Written by Darci Tomky
Combines run by Jim and Bill Tomky are going strong Friday, Sept. 3 on family farm ground
in Chase County, Neb. Each year the Tomkys devote a portion of their land to growing dry
edible beans. —Enterprise photo
A day in the life of...
A bean farmer
Not everyone likes their jobs, that's for sure, but after spending "a day in the life of" one local farmer, area residents don't hesitate a bit in pointing out he absolutely loves his job. In between knifing, combining and hauling, Jim Tomky took some time to spill the beans about pinto bean harvest.
Jim is very passionate about farming, and since dry edible beans are not very plentiful in the area, he was thrilled to educate the so called "city folk" about all the ins and outs of the job.
Spencer and Rhiannon Kimble beat the Enterprise to the punch when they spent a day with Jim in the field. Spencer and his wife moved to Holyoke a few months ago when he became the new pharmacist at Pamida. After connecting with Jim and his wife Mary, they jumped at the opportunity to spend "a day in the life of" a farmer.
"Jim's one of those people that really likes his job," said Spencer. "The moment the combine door opened, he talked about farming."
For the couple originally from Wyoming, it was definitely an eye-opening experience to spend some time at the Tomky farm.
"It's a lot of hard, dirty work, but people are detatched from how much work it takes to put food on the table," said Spencer.
Jim explained the bean market is driven by consumers. Since pinto beans are just one type of dry edible beans, there are many different options for farmers looking to plant beans. "It's kind of a niche market."
Other dry edible beans are kidney, navy and black beans. Pinto beans are called mottled because of their spots (think pinto horse...). They are often times used in refried beans as well as sent worldwide for humanitarian aide.
Jim, who farms with his two brothers, Bill and Kenny, said they devote one-fourth to one-third of their land to a bean crop. It's just another crop to spread out their risk, he said. It also spreads out the labor so they aren't so busy during wheat or corn harvest.
Jim's pinto beans were planted around the end of May to the beginning of June. He said the beans don't really like water and they love the sun. They take less than half as much water as irrigated corn and not as much fertilizer either.
When the beans are ready for harvest, the Tomkys use the knifing method where the beans are undercut and rodded out of the dirt. The cutting takes place at night when dew is on the plant which helps reduce seed shattering.
"My absolute favorite part is when the sun is just about ready to peak over the horizon," said Jim. "Watching the sun come up over the field makes me feel like I'm a small part of God's creation. When you just happen to catch the sunrise—it's breathtaking."
A few days after the pinto beans are cut, it's time to harvest them. Farmers pray for no rain during this time because it could discolor the beans.
Spencer and Rhiannon were excited to learn about harvest and the different ways farmers collect a variety of crops. They each got to take turns riding in the combine with Jim, and before they knew it, it was their turn to take the wheel and drive!
"If you can put pants on one leg at a time, you can drive a combine," Jim told them.
The two new farmers collected the beans and unloaded them into the truck.
"I got to say that I drove a combine!" said Rhiannon.
The experience wouldn't be complete without a trip to Grainland to unload the newly harvested pinto beans.
Darrell Krieg of Grainland is the go-to guy on beans, said Jim. He educates farmers on trends in the bean industry, and the Tomkys rely on his experience.
Krieg grades the beans based on their quality. Dockages can come from split beans, hauling in dirt with the beans and foreign materials like beans that are too small.
"You want a nice, clean sample—that's what the consumer wants and that's what we have to deliver," said Jim. Beans that are clean, bright and whole is the ultimate goal.
After the beans are graded, Kenny explained how they are dumped from the bottom of the truck and then moved into a bin through a conveyor belt before they are unloaded into another truck that will haul them to Brush.
Eventually, those beans will make their way to consumers and onto the dinner table. The Kimbles pointed out how interesting it is to see where food comes from since most Americans are so disconnected from how food is produced.
Rhiannon got to take home a bag of pinto beans and is very excited to cook the fresh, local crop. "Fresh food just tastes so much better!" she said.
Since they now know about crops other than corn and wheat, Spencer and Rhiannon said it's been fun to drive around the area and try to identify the fields with beans.
The Tomkys have been farming in northeast Colorado and western Nebraska since around 1975. Will Tomky and his family moved then because of the bad water situation in southeast Colorado.
Jim, Bill and Kenny now handle the family farming operation. "As long as we take care of Dad first, harvest goes smoother," said Jim with a smile.
"I don't know what I'd be doing if I wasn't farming," said Jim. Some days he wonders why he farms, but it's evident he loves his job by the way he talks about it.
Jim certainly enjoys his voice in agriculture, and as his wife puts it, he is always eager to "show and tell" people about his farming.
"It's up to farmers to educate," he said. "How do you know about agriculture if you don't learn the active part of it?"
He pointed out agriculture in the United States is shrinking. "It's the natural progression of the industry." It seems like there are lots of opportunities in ag, but some of those deal with things like GPS systems and biogenetics so there aren't as many farmers in production agriculture.
Each year Jim and Mary host two high school seniors with the Colorado Farm Bureau's Bear Creek School program. The kids, who most times have never been on a farm, get to experience life in agriculture for 10 days.
"We've been in that program for five years already, and it's a great learning experience for Jim and myself too," said Mary.
Jim is always eager to educate people about farming. Besides hanging out with Holyoke's pharmacist and a newspaper reporter, he has shared his passion with young adults from the Air Force as well as a few Iowa visitors Mary met at the welcome center.
After such a great exposure to pinto bean harvest, Jim even teased Spencer and Rhiannon about returning for corn harvest. But one thing is for sure, the next time pinto bean harvest rolls around, the Kimbles can certainly say they've "bean" there, done that!

Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty for SnoringSkip to the navigation
Surgery Overview
Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) is a procedure used to remove excess tissue in the throat to widen the airway. This sometimes can allow air to move through the throat more easily when you breathe, reducing snoring. The tissues removed may include:
- The small finger-shaped piece of tissue (uvula) that hangs down from the back of the roof of the mouth into the throat.
- Part of the roof of the mouth (soft palate).
- Excess throat tissue, tonsils and adenoids, and the pharynx.
What To Expect After Surgery
It takes about 3 weeks to recover from surgery. It may be very difficult to swallow during this time. Because of this, only 60% of those having the surgery say they would undergo it again.footnote 1
Why It Is Done
Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty is sometimes used to treat snoring in people so that their bed partner can sleep better. It is rarely used and only considered in cases of very severe snoring when other treatments have failed. It may be used in people who:
- Have excess tissue in the nose, mouth, or throat that blocks the airway.
- Do not stop snoring after making lifestyle changes such as losing weight and sleeping on their sides.
How Well It Works
UPPP is often effective in reducing snoring initially. Over the long term, it cures snoring in 46% to 73% of those who have had this surgery.footnote 1
Complications during surgery include accidental damage to surrounding blood vessels or tissues.
Complications after surgery may include:
- Sleepiness and periods when breathing stops (sleep apnea), both related to the medicine (anesthesia) that made you sleep during surgery.
- Swelling, pain, infection, and bleeding.
- A sore throat and trouble swallowing.
- Drainage of secretions into the nose and a nasal quality to the voice. Speech may be affected by this surgery.
- Narrowing of the airway in the nose and throat.
What To Think About
Surgery is rarely used to treat snoring. It may not completely cure snoring, and the risks of surgery may not be worth the small benefit you gain.
If you develop sleep apnea after having UPPP, diagnosis may be delayed because you do not snore. Snoring is the major symptom of sleep apnea.
Snoring is not always considered a medical problem, so insurance may not cover treatment.
Before considering surgery, all people who snore should try nonsurgical treatment.
Laser-assisted uvulopalatoplasty also may be used to treat snoring.

The federal cuts that were attributed to the budget sequester in Washington will apparently not affect Meridian's air traffic control tower.
Officials at Key Field said they learned Friday that the tower will not close later this year.
Hundreds of towers across the U.S. were scheduled to close because of automatic budget reductions.
Officials did not immediately have details as to why the tower was spared.

From the science labs of Goldspohn Hall in the early 1940s came a scientist who was featured in Time magazine and honored in Washington D.C. Dr. Mildred Rebstock was given much of the credit for finding a synthetic form of chloromycetin. At the time, antibiotics had to be grown slowly from molds and the rarity of chloromycetin (discovered in 1947) limited its widespread use in combating diseases like typhoid fever and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. That changed with Rebstock's discovery in 1949.

South Shore bays are polluted
(Page 2 of 3)
Swanson explained that his research also indicated that the bays are not well flushed, meaning that there is no good place for the nitrogen to go. Measurements indicated that effluent leaving the Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant does not immediately flush through the bays' inlets, he said, but instead "sloshes back and forth."
Dick Cartwright, of the U.S. Geological Survey, also presented data from monitoring stations in Point Lookout and Island Park. He said that daily statistics show good to fair water quality and ecological conditions near the estuary mouth at Point Lookout, but fair to poor water quality in the middle of the bay, near Island Park.
Research conducted by all three groups will inform the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation's total maximum daily load document, which the state uses to regulate the maximum pollutant load that each waste discharger is allowed to release into a waterway.
A long process
But Lorraine Holdridge, a DEC representative, explained that the TMDL document would not be completed until 2017. She also said that the document could include a 15-year implementation plan.
Local activists and elected officials expressed concern about the TMDL time frame, suggesting that change has to happen at Bay Park sooner rather than later, especially in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
At the end of December, environmentalists released a 10-point plan for the plant that included installing monitors at the outfall pipe in Reynolds Channel, creating a public oversight committee and modernizing it to treat nitrogen. Citizens Campaign for the Environment, the group that moderated last week's forum, distributed a list of objectives to those who attended.

Citizens Campaign for the Environment and County Legislator David Denenberg are liars and hypocrites!
Where were they 2 years ago, when ask to back East Rockaway and The Greenbay Parkers for more responsible sewer treatment in Nassau County?
They and other "front" groups stood behind Tom Suozzi's 10 year Master Plan and told us everything was alright, the Bay was fine, and we didn't need a TDML. Check the minutes from the Legislative meetings and you'll see that they are full of effluent!

All great entries - congratulations everyone on your prisons.
This was sure a collection of unusually maps.
Great job all. I actually found it quite hard to choose my two favourites as there were a couple I liked, trying to balance creativity with technique and style. As my first challenge entry I have to say I found it a blast and I'm looking forward to the next one already
Check out: My Mar 2014 Challenge Submission: The Ballad of the Bonny Bards' Booty
Check out: My Finished Maps
Formerly "Yospeck"
My main vote went to Bogie's Bridge of Tears Prison. Love the level of detail presented.
Watsland would have been my number my selectionsone pick, but all it needed was a discription in each of the specific diagrams on the right to finish it up. Thanks for the great entries. It was hard to pick my selections.
Another tough call this Month. I wanted to vote for 4: Detention Centre 417 by LonewandererD, The Dark by lostatsea, Prison Planet by Sapiento and The Devil's Cauldron by Yospeck. I ended up going with Centre 417 and Prison Planet. But good job everyone.
As always, quite difficult to judge... Congrats to all for applying the challenge, I wish I could have myself...
My 2 choices:
1/ SuperMax Seven by Diamond: very detailed, neat realization, ready to use, and I like the simple and efficient style
2/ The Dark by lostatsea: clear and ready to use sci-fi style
My would be choices / special mentions:
Detention Centre 417 by LonewandererD: nice details (escapees and others), but lack of readibility inside the camp itself.
The Devil's Cauldron by Yospeck: nice style and feeling, but no map key or indications except some drown in the text, would be my first otherwise.
Brbridge of Tears Prison...There is no return. by Bogie: nice continuing of last challenge, but no map key or indications.
Sci-Fi Ancient Prison Ship by Fury: style very interesting depicting a grim sci-fi mood, but lack readibility, I spent some time on it but still don't understand the place.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- Ward 8 Councilman Marion Barry took to Twitter Wednesday morning to share his thoughts on American democracy, the Democratic National Convention, and Washington, D.C.'s role in the country.
Writing nearly 20 tweets over the course of an hour, all of which can be seen in the photo gallery above, Barry attacked the age-old issue of D.C.'s taxation without representation, calling District residents "disenfranchised U.S. citizens" and saying that the American people need to "see the hypocrisy of 'democracy' that we've been subjected to in DC."
Barry even offered his own suggestion for resolution: "To avoid partisan politics, bring in the REPUBLICAN Puerto Rico. States come in twos, one rep. one dem. SOMETHING needs to be done."
"How can we tell others the Democratic is the party of the people, when the people of DC have been denied representation for so long? #FREEDC," Barry continued on his Twitter diatribe. "Let's be honest: Does DC have to be "gentrified" to get voting rights? Is that what we are wating for? Democracy has no color, right?"
Take a look at the slideshow above to see all of Barry's tweets from this morning's hour-long string.

On the heels of a strong earnings report and more than double the average volume, shares of Microsoft (MSFT) soared by nearly five percent on Friday and have positioned the stock as one to watch during the coming week following the exciting close of Friday.
Although some analysts predicted a week quarter for McDonald's (MCD), the company surprised and posted solid results, also a factor in Friday's strong showing for the markets. The same can be said for General Electric (GE), whose numbers beat the general consensus, although revenue was down.
Those three key players will be all but forgotten next week, however, when a slew of new earnings reports will dominate the headlines making last week's players over-the-hill, old news.
All eyes are going to be on Apple (AAPL) during the coming week, with the tech behemoth set to report earnings on Tuesday afternoon. Although AAPL shares have been on the slide over the past couple of weeks, dropping a good ten percent during that time frame, most predict another quarter of huge growth that could once again propel shares to over the six hundred dollar mark. There are naysayers, though, that believe the best days of Apple may already be in the rear view mirror, even with the prospects of Apple TV set to hit the markets later this year.
Whatever this company brings to the table on Tuesday will most likely dictate the sentiment of trading on Wednesday morning.
It could be that Apple is THE story to watch during the coming week.
Synergy Pharmaceuticals (SGYP): The strongest-volumed day in a couple of weeks supported a two percent price increase on Friday for shares of Synergy Pharmaceuticals (SGYP), a company that has been gaining increasingly positive coverage from analysts over the past couple of months.
Last week's modest move higher saw SGYP shares trading at levels not seen since early March.
Given that the halfway point has just recently been met for enrollment in an ongoing Phase II/III trial for lead product candidate, Plecanatide, which would enter into a multi-billion dollar market if approved, interest could start increasing in the company which may enable the share price to approach the enthusiastic estimates of analysts.
Summer Street has initiated coverage with a price target of $9, Brean Murray's most recent rating is accompanied by a price tag of $13, and just a couple of weeks ago Roth Capital threw its own prediction into the mix with a price target of $12.

August 05, 2009 05:00 PM by Britteny Elrick
Although Jon Gosselin maybe be moving on in both his professional and personal life, his soon to be ex-wife Kate is not ready to take that step. One of Kate's closest friends, Jamie Ayers, recentlyspoke to Life & Style about how Kate is coping with the divorce and when she plans to get back into the dating game.
As reported by Life & Style, Jamie Ayers is speaking out and defending Kate against unfair portrayals of her as a mother and wife. Jamietold the magazine,"It was good for her [on her visit with Kate]â⬔ she's lonely now that Jon's gone."However, Kate doesn't havetime to be too lonely with eight kidsto care for. "Kate's trying to do more than be just a mom," says Jamie, "the kind of stuff Jon would've done. She wants to be well-rounded for the kids."
So is Kate ready to jump into the dating world like ex-hubby Jon? "Kate says it's not something she'd ever consider doing before the divorce is final," Jamie says. "Even then, I don't foresee it being a priority for her. Her goal is supporting her kids."
Wow. Imagine that. Waiting until the divorce is over to start dating again…what a mature and responsible way of dealing with things Kate!
