I dont carry my 1911s, they are more than I want to carry around all day. I have two, a Remington Rand from 1919, and a custom, built off of a millitary frame , SA slide, Barstow barrel, and Wilson trigger. The custom shoots much better but the Remington just makes me smile everytime I look at it.
The SA Micro Compact above might be something Id carry tho. Very Cool! Dr

Biographical/Historical note
The Dalton Institute was a private boarding school in Stokes County, N.C. and operated in the latter part of the nineteenth century and early twentieth century. There is only a brief and rather obscure history available. In fact, the tangible evidence left behind leaves many gaps and unanswered questions concerning this institute and its history. Besides being listed in Patterson's College and School Directory, 1909, and Patterson's American Eductional Directory, 1919 (Patterson's continued to list the Institute beyond the dates known for its operation), what little we know of this school exists in the form of a one paragraph essay, probably written by Samuel S. Dalton, a relative of one of the school's founders. The Dalton Institute, which existed from 1872 to 1908, was located in Dalton, Stokes County, North Carolina. Two pieces of correspondence addressed to W. A. Flynt indicate that he was the headmaster, and an instructor. His sister taught the lower classes: reading, writing, arithmetic, and Latin. David N. Dalton built a house for Professor Flynt in 1875. Flynt must have taught there for most of the years of operations. He is listed as teacher there in the Biennial Report of the Superintendent of Public Instruction of North Carolina for the scholastic years 1896-'97 and 1897-'98. Most years, there were about twenty-five students, and the enrollment records indicate that the Flynt's taught both boys and girls—girls were separated into their own department. As a boarding school, boys were housed in the Flynt, Dalton, and Snyder houses. Girls lived in the Schultz house. Most of the students were from around the Dalton, Mount Airy, Germantown, Winston-Salem, Kernersville, Greensboro, and High Point area. One notable alum was Edwin Kiser, a Republican Representative in the General Assembly in 1917 from Stokes County who attended Dalton Institute in 1887, 1888, and 1889.
Scope and Contents note
The Dalton Institute Records is a small collection of material left behind from a boarding school in Stokes County, North Carolina. The history of this school is mostly obscured by the lack of records left to posterity. In fact, the Dalton Institute existed for only thirty-six years. Materials included in this collection are correspondence (2 items addressed to W.A. Flynt), five enrollment books spanning from 1879 to 1902, and lecture notes covering a variety of subjects (the Institutes of Christianity, US government, mineralogy, and philosophy). The most revealing items in this small collection are five enrollment books, which indicate the names of the students, the courses they took, the fees they paid, and their attendance. In addition, these books also indicate that the Dalton Institute was a co-educational school, with a "female department."
Arrangement note
This collection is arranged into three series, beginning with a series containing two letters addressed to W.A. Flynt, the headmaster and instructor of the Dalton Institute. This is followed by a series of lecture notes on a variety of subjects taught at the Dalton Institute. Series III contains five student enrollment books, from 1872 to 1902.

Language-immersion programs are helping Seattle Public Schools' students boost their performance in the classroom. Innovative offerings such as these can help Washington compete for federal education grants.
AS the rest of the world becomes more globally attuned, America is often criticized for falling behind, particularly in education.
Among solutions adopted by Seattle Public Schools are language-immersion programs, where students are taught 50 percent of the time in English and the rest of the time in a foreign language.
Raised test scores and confidence levels are among the gains at elementary schools like Beacon Hill International and John Stanford International. Students in Stanford's first Spanish-English class tested about 20 points higher in reading and math on the state's standardized fourth-grade test than students a grade ahead taught in English only.
These are the kinds of innovative programs envisioned by education reformers and spurred by efforts such as the competitive Race to the Top federal grants.

- Seattle-based seafood company shuts down
- What's the top spelling 'mistake' in Washington state? The answer could make you sick

In addition to long waiting lists that underscore the popularity of language-immersion programs, educators point to studies proving dual-language instruction's efficacy in teaching students, including those with limited English skills. While many students still do not take up a foreign language until middle school or later, studies have shown foreign languages are more easily taught and learned in elementary school.
In Seattle, nearly a quarter of children ages 5 to 17 speak a language other than English, and in some elementary schools, nearly 50 percent of students are eligible for bilingual services.
In the 2008-2009 school year, the federal government spent $100 billion more on K-12 education than it had in the previous year. That is not counting the nearly $100 billion in stimulus funds earmarked for education.
With an increase in funding, America has an opportunity to invest in bilingual education.
Seattle's language-immersion programs offer a creative and proven way to improve academic achievement. These successful programs have the potential to improve the quality of education in America.

Olmert Arrives in U.S. for Talks With Bush, Condoleezza Rice
Prime Minister: Iran must 'start to fear' if it continues to reject compromises over nuclear program.
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert arrived in Washington on Sunday for talks with U.S. President George W. Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
Ahead of his departure, Olmert said the major issues to be discussed at the summit will be the curbing of the Iranian nuclear threat and ways to resuscitate the Israeli-Palestinian diplomatic process.
In a conversation with press aboard his plane Sunday, the prime minister reiterated that "Iran will only agree to a compromise on the issue of its nuclear program if it has a reason to be afraid."
Olmert refused to elaborate on Israel's options regarding the issue.
Olmert is scheduled to see Bush for a brief one-hour meeting and for a longer session with Rice on Sunday evening Washington time, according to Army Radio.
After the Washington leg of his trip, during which he will also meet with administration and congressional leaders, Olmert will head for Los Angeles to speak at the General Assembly (GA) of the United Jewish Communities.
In an interview published on Sunday, Olmert made statements about Iran that took on the harshest tones so far, as he hinted for the first time at the possibility of Israeli military action.
Responding to the interview, Iran said Sunday it would react swiftly and harshly to such a move by Israel.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini told a news conference Iran would put into action its Revolutionary Guards if Israel attacked the Islamic Republic.
"If Israel takes such a stupid step and attacks, the answer of Iran and its Revolutionary Guard will be rapid, firm and destructive and it will be given in a few seconds," he said.
He also said the country was pressing ahead with plans to expand its program to enrich uranium, which the West and Israel accuse Iran of using to make nuclear warheads, despite Tehran's denials.
In an interview appearing Sunday in Newsweek and the Washington Post, Olmert compared Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Adolf Hitler, calling Ahmadinejad "a man who is ready to commit crimes against humanity" and noting "he has to be stopped."
"My position is clear," the prime minister said regarding Iran. "If there can be a compromise that will stop Iran short of crossing the technological threshold that will lead them into nuclear capabilities, we will be for such a compromise. But I don't believe that Iran will accept such compromise unless they have a very good reason to fear the consequences of not reaching it. In other words, Iran must start to fear."
When asked what he thought could be done about Iran, Olmert said, "I can think of many different measures. The guideline has to be that this government and the people of Iran must understand that if they do not accept the request of the international community, they're going to pay dearly."
When asked whether he would not rule out a military option, he answered, "I think my words were clear enough."
With regard to a lack of action on the part of the international community leading to Israel's considering a military option, Olmert said, "it is absolutely intolerable for Israel to accept the threat of a nuclear Iran. I prefer not to discuss the Israeli options. Israel has many options."
More flexible comments on PalestniansMeanwhile, the prime minister's statements with regard to the Palestinians became more flexible, with a pledge to release "many, many prisoners," and support territorial compromise.
Sources in the Prime Minister's Bureau said there would be no "great dramas" at the Washington meetings, and the purpose of Olmert's trip was mainly to thank the Jewish communities for funds raised during and after the recent war in Lebanon. They described the goal of the meetings as to exchange ideas and give a "small push" to the Iranian issue.
A senior government source said Olmert would be discussing with Bush the creation of an international coalition against Iran and would try to "reach understandings best kept quiet."
The source said Olmert would also ask the U.S. to make sure the Palestinians stuck to the principles of the Quartet - the demand that any Palestinian government recognize Israel and previous agreements and renounce violence. The source said Olmert would not be presenting a new position vis-a-vis the Palestinians.
On his previous visit to the U.S. in May, Olmert presented Bush with the convergence plan, which has since been taken off the agenda.
State Department seeking to revise Mideast policyAccording to other sources in Israel, the U.S. State Department is talking about "revising" its Middle Eastern policy, and considering ideas for partial implementation of the road map, such as operating the border crossings, a withdrawal of the Israel Defense Forces from its positions in the West Bank and evacuation of illegal outposts. However, these ideas are said not to be acceptable to the White House.
In the published interview, Olmert said "I'm ready for territorial compromises, and I haven't changed my mind."
He also said that the policies of his government had not changed due to Avigdor Lieberman's joining the cabinet. Olmert avoided answering the question of whether the U.S. had asked him to release jailed Tanzim leader Marwan Barghouti, and would say only "I made it clear long ago that I am anxious to open up a new dialogue with Abu Mazen, and for that purpose, I'm ready to release many prisoners. Hamas' extreme inflexible attitude prevents the prisoners from being released because they refuse to let us have our soldier [Gilad Shalit].... Hamas is not really interested in the well-being of its prisoners. They want to topple Abu Mazen [Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas] at any cost."
Olmert reiterated his obligation to the "vision which I share with President Bush" of a two-state solution, and said that following the war in Lebanon and the failure of the Palestinians to deal with terror, "I have second thoughts about the ability to accomplish the two-state solution through realignment. It [realignment] is definitely not dead, but it has to be reexamined. One thing I can promise: Under no circumstances am I going to withdraw from the need to engage in a serious dialogue with the Palestinians."
Olmert praised the Arab countries in the interview, especially Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates on their position during the war, noting "in the past, the Saudis have expressed some ideas about a possible solution in the Middle East."
Olmert called the war in Lebanon a "strategic, military and political success" for Israel, adding, "I know for sure through different sources that Hezbollah was close to total surrender."
Olmert is also expected to raise in his discussions with Bush and senior administration officials the enforcement of UN Security Council Resolution 1701, and the completion of the arms embargo against Hezbollah.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly says the top-ranked Fighting Irish will have an early curfew every night they are in Miami preparing to play second-ranked Alabama for the national title.
Kelly told the media Saturday he usually has a 2 a.m. curfew the first night or two on bowl trips so players can have fun. He says the curfew in Miami will be 11 p.m. every night, saying he has told the Irish (12-0) to approach the game as a business trip.
The Irish are seeking their first national championship since 1988. Kelly says the Irish had a physical practice Saturday and will have another Sunday. The Irish head to Miami on Wednesday.
The Irish play Alabama (12-1) in the BCS title game Jan. 7.

Sleeping Dogs - ReviewChris Matulich, posted on 17 August 2012 / 243,344 Views
There once was a time when the modern Grand Theft Auto archetype reigned supreme, where sandboxed-styled, crime-spree fueled romps in seedy underbellies of some city or another seemed to pop up every couple of months. The comparison to the legendary GTA was neigh impossible to avoid - as it is with the shining example of any other genre - and Sleeping Dogs can't escape the same reality. However, unlike its spiritual predecessors in the True Crime series, Sleeping Dogs does much more than merely imitate the best - it competes with it.
One of the strongest components of Sleeping Dogs is the surprisingly deep and solidly entertaining story. It's set in the bustling underground of a Triad controlled, fictional Hong Kong, where the player assumes the role of an undercover cop recently returning from a long stint in California. With an old childhood friend, Wei Shen will slowly infiltrate the ranks of the Triad known as the Sun On Yee while seeking revenge for his sister (who fell victim to heroin addiction and overdose). It's essentially Donnie Brasco with Triads instead of the Italian Mafia, with more insight into the effect of undercover work and how a man can be thrown into a life of crime and willingly become a criminal. The story excellently shows the inner workings of a crime-family, depicting the bonds and honor that occur rather than just senseless violence and erratic, drug inspired humor... though there's definitely plenty of that too. It goes deeper into the main character's ideals and emotions, showing the struggle and stress of his work as it affects his psyche and personality. Most of the story is told through beautifully rendered cutscenes, backed up by some seriously superb voice acting led by newcomer and soon-to-be Silver Samura in the upcoming Wolverine flick, Will Yun Lee, and the loveable, raspy voiced Emma Stone. Other characters sound authentic with thick accents and make up a great supporting cast that is filled with an array of eccentrics to help create some individuality. Though where the voice acting is spot on, facial emotions are pretty subpar. Almost all characters are poker-faced the entire time, whether a man gets hacked to pieces and served in stew or gets tortured with an automatic drill, no one shows any emotion, and it's exacerbated by the fact that their body movements and mannerisms are very animated.
Where Sleeping Dogs's brings the thunder, the gameplay calls down some majestic lightning. Sleeping Dogs is a sandbox affair, complete with a sprawling city that's 100% accessible right from the beginning, featuring safehouses, karaoke, gambling, cock fighting, fight clubs, and many other attractions. Wei is a master of Kung Fu and, by extension, free running, allowing him to fluidly sprint through the city, jumping over dumpsters and scaling lower walls at will. It's used rather extensively through the many foot chases and semi-platforming sections, but movement is smooth and the system is generally fun to use. While the game holds all the mainstays of criminal action, Sleeping Dogs' ace-in-the-hole comes in the form of fantastic hand-to-hand combat. Most fighting is done without guns, and the combat system is fluid, intense, and brutal. It's all Kung Fu based, complete with grabs that throw people into exhaust fans or ice choppers, arms and legs snapping like twigs, and relying heavily upon a counter ability to deal with dozens of opponents. Much like Arkham Asylum/City's "Freeflow" system, countering will be the barrier between life and death, and there are certainly no complaints here due to its polished performance. Fighting off other Triads is a viscous effort and brutally fun. It has the combos and control of a game devoted to combat, creating a whole new aspect to the crime-infused sandbox genre. I found myself running around Hong Kong just looking for other gangs to fight so I could see all the unique grabs that utilize the environment, as well as just to enjoy the fluid movement of Shen's attacks and counters. It's a blast to use.
That's not to say the rest of the game takes a backseat to punching and kicking. Gunplay is exceptionally tight, yet lacks the ability to aim down the sights of a gun (definitely a noticeable absence). Sleeping Dogs adds a bit of flare to the third-person-shooter; when Wei hops over cover or slides over the hood over a car, a mini-slowdown occurs, giving the player that extra couple of seconds to line up shots. It helps with creating that aura of baddasary that leading characters in the genre need to possess. Though the slowdown wins no points in originality, it's not an ability that can be actively used, and brings just the right amount of style and functionality to the intense gameplay.
Driving also holds a certain uniqueness as well. Controls are GTA standard, with cars, bikes, and boats very responsive and holding a great feeling of speed. Unfortunately, no air travel is available to Wei, but the absence of jets and helicopters is hardly noticed due to the amount of "sweet rides" one can find around the four major sections of Hong Kong. The in-game physics are pretty impressive as well; moving through Hong Kong is never stiff, and the ragdoll effect looks great when flying headlong into the pavement after being thrown through the windshield or tossed off a bike. Yet, what really makes the driving an incredible experience are the Action Highjacks Wei can perform from any moving vehicle. When riding close to another vehicle while driving or riding shotgun, Wei can jump to the other vehicle, expel the driver onto the moving pavement, and continue on his merry way. It makes theft, car chases, and police escapes much more entertaining, and when combined with the violent car and motorcycle flips when tires get blown at high speeds, Sleeping Dogs' chase segments are some of the best around.
Wei Shen will gain experience for completing missions, events, and other side quests. Every mission rewards Wei with both Cop and Triad experience, but each receive XP differently (Triad experience is rewarded for being a general badass when it comes to fighting rival gangs, performing Action Hijacks, and using the environment and skills for unique kills). With each level gained in either the Cop or Triad "class", Shen can choose a new skill from one of two branches, with a total of 10 skills and levels for each tree. Maxing out both trees is rather easy with the amount of content available, which is beneficial since the skills unlocked make for a better game. The Cop tree sees abilities like the Slim Jim, making it easier to steal cars (weird, right?) and allowing Wei to pull a shotgun out of the trunk of a cop car, while the Triad tree raises his strike damage and resistances, also giving him a brutal elbow drop. The level and skill system is a great addition to the sandbox gameplay, providing an experience that only gets better as the game progresses.
On top of the Triad and Cop experience, Wei also receives Face XP that allows him to wear certain clothes that offer bonuses and gives other advantages at every level. Clothes make the man in Hong Kong, and these clothes can give 15% bonus XP or strike damage, which is a great change of pace from the strictly aesthetic alterations, but can only be worn if enough Face levels have been attained. There is also a Face meter, which increases as Wei beats his opponents down using a variety of maneuvers. When the meter fills, the world slows down a bit, slowly regenerating Shen's health, and intimidating his foes so Wei can take the advantage. The slowdown has lost its unique feel, but it's nonetheless a welcome addition. New fighting techniques are granted in a different manner as well. Upon arriving in Hong Kong, Shen encounters his old Kung Fu master, discovering that his prized animal statues have been stolen. Finding and returning them will grant Wei new moves, ranging from more powerful heavy attacks, to extending combos, to grabs that enable him to snap enemies' limbs. It all enhances the already-pleasing Kung Fu action, and the variance in obtaining skills and other bonuses adds to the enjoyment factor greatly.
Besides the main missions, Wei can undergo case files through an inspector working the Triad circuit, other events scattered around Hong Kong, stealing a long list of cars, collecting on loans, race some cars, performing drug busts, and looking for some potential girlfriends, among other activities. The case files are a mini story in their own right, exposing drug cartels and human trafficking rings through Wei's influence with the Sun On Yee. Drug busts, as well as case files and some of the main missions, require Wei to hack cameras, pick locks, crack safes, and bug cars or apartments. Each is accompanied by a creative yet simple mini game usually needing correct timing or "hitting the sweet spot" using the control sticks. Hacking cameras are a bit different, where four digits need to be guessed in a limited number of times. The mini games are fast and fun, giving the game more depth in the process. Events and the plethora of other side missions provide for a lot of the comedy, particularly when Calvin, one of the foot soldiers, decides to shoot wildly into a storefront or blow up the police station, hop in Wei's car, and tell him to just drive. The extra content found around Hong Kong is vast and quite easy to become enraptured with, as the hours upon hours of criminal action to behold can easily distract from the main story.
Sleeping Dogs' fictional Hong Kong brims with it a certain beauty that only a grim, seedy representation could hold. The outlay of the city stays true to its real life counterpart, filled with overcrowded markets, karaoke bars, sky scrapers, sewage systems, beaches, islands, and a multitude of back alleys to free run and explore. Every part of the city has been given a good deal of creative attention, with the city being brought to life with a slick visual style that doesn't "copy and paste" sections a bunch of times. Character models also receive the same detailed treatment, save for their facial expressions that are weak at best. Driving around looking at all the pretty colors wouldn't be complete without a great list of radio stations that range a large variety of music. From classic rock to dub step, Sleeping Dogs keeps the tunes flowing with some awesome artists like Queen, Bonobo, The Budos Band, The Who and Eminem behind the well composed soundtrack. Check out Warped or Ninja Tune Radio - you won't be disappointed.
Sleeping Dogs truly is the definition of a "sleeper hit". Once known as True Crime: Hong Kong and sitting in development hell, Sleeping Dogs is nothing short of amazing. While it certainly copies Grand Theft Auto's overall gameplay, it throws in its own unique style to provide for a rich and robust experience. Whether it's the John Woo, Hard Boiled-styled action and intense undercover themed story, the large variety of side missions that can take a good dozen hours to complete, or the multiple outlets in the Social Hub for stats and other gameplay achievements, one could easily spend 30 or more hours in the seedy Hong Kong. While multiplayer wasn't included, it's not a necessary addition, and combined with the poker-faced cast, there are no other significant negatives. I believe the idiom states "Let sleeping dogs lie". Clearly, Square Enix thought themselves crafty with that title, yet I disagree with its meaning. Don't let this dog lay his ass down - it'd be a damn shame if you let this gem pass you by.

Liquor seized from Orange Walk businesses
Customs officials yesterday descended on several businesses in the Orange Walk area and confiscated a quantity of beverages from at least two liquor shops.
Stabroek News understands that several policemen and the officials entered the businesses enquiring about business licences and registration.
One young woman said that shortly before 3pm, an officer came into the boutique where she works asking about their business licence. "An officer came and he was asking about the licence and then he ask about the registration and I told him that I am just working here and he has to wait for my boss to come to give it to him."
According to the woman, the officers and officials proceeded to the liquor shops in the area. "They go over by Sweet Point and the shop next to them and next thing I see they go away with all of their liquor, like they ain't had licence to sell the liquor", she said.
When Stabroek News visited the area yesterday, Sweet Point was still open for business, but the shop next to it that was raided was shut tight.

Pathfinder Battles—Rusty Dragon Inn: Cutpurse
26 posts. No reviews. No lists. No wishlists.
Is there any way to get an actual Paizo ruling on this?
The adventure is complete! Since last we posted we played two more sessions, 24 and 25. The Journal has been updated to include the incredible finale of the Jade Regent Adventure Path.
Chapter 24: A Holy Man in Hell, Mounting a Defense, The Battle of Namida No Kawa "The River of Tears", and The Princess and the Dragon.
Chapter 25: The Beginning of the End, and Finale.
Well that's it, we kept the Journal throughout, from the first moment of the Brinewall Legacy to the last second of the Empty Throne.
We enjoyed the campaign and it will likely stand as one of our our most memorable campaigns, and certainly the best Oriental Adventures campaign we've played. Thanks to all at Paizo involved!
We are moving on now to the creation of our own adventure path, set in a whole new Pathfinder world setting, with all new geography, history, gods, and adventures! Maybe someday, we will see you there!
Xiao Ping
Gentle Readers,
The Silks End Chronicles has been updated for the first third of session 24. We are winding down to the end, and the first army battles with the Jade Regent are set to begin...
A Holy Man in Hell, Mounting a Defense
There will be more updates, and one or two more sessions before we hopefully succeed...
The adventure continues! We get closer and closer to the exciting conclusion of the Jade Regent Adventure path.
Chapter 23
The Ainu and the Mountain, and Battle of the Khans
Something messed up my quotes in Chapter 22, so don't try to read that chapter now.
A thankfully abundant freelance work roster has has me negligent in posting here, but not so in keeping the journal current.
Last we posted here we were halfway through recounting the events of session 20.
Chapter 21 is complete, and recount the events of session 21, where for the first time we adventured alongside Ameiko and the Jade Archer. We headed to a mysterious island in order to seek the blesings of the old Emperor, and learn what we could of his fate...
The first half is the party conflict section, the second part, Fingers of Death, is the actual adventure section.
Fingers of Death
We are set to play session 22 today.
The Silk's End Chronicles has had two updates since last we posted here.
This link finishes Session 19
The Fall
This link begins Session 20, Aki's solo by Aiko Kaijitsu:
The Challenge
During Session 20, we began the assault on the Jade Regent's palace in Kyoto, chewing through the cannon fodder in The Empty Throne.
We know it gets a bit cheesy at times, but we are just having fun with it.
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated for Session 19.
There is a solo mission for Allegro, and the situation in Guangzhou comes to a head.
Allegro and the Ninja, and Traitors
I forgot to post here for the last update, so there are actually two weekly updates here.
Next session, we begin The Empty Throne.
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated.
This is the last part of our 18th session.
Next session is this Saturday, February 2.
It appears cataclysmic events impend.
Best Regards,
Xiao Ping, Aiko Kaijitsu
The Silk's End Chronicles had been updated.
There was a "friendly" rockball game with some Giants you guys may have heard of.
The Game
One more section to come for session 18, next week. Session 19 will be played February 2nd, 2013.
Best Regards
XP, Aiko Kaijitsu
The Silks End Chronicles has been updated.
These are the events that make up roughly the first third of our 18th session.
Ochir and the Ainu, Family Feud, and Giant Country
Thanks DAOL, we have kept it up this far, we'll finish the rest, and damned exciting it is too.
Best Regards,
Xiao Ping
Hello all,
The Silks End Chronicles has been updated.
This is the final part of Session 17. We played Session 18 last Saturday, January 5, so an update for the first part of chapter 18 will be coming.
We're doing a few side adventures before playing The Empty Throne.
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated. The antics from session 17 continue...
The Villa and the Merchant
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated for the opening parts of session 17.
Ochir and the Daimyo, and The Island of Shadows
The Silk's End Chronicles has had an update. Aki has taken up his pen in order to relate his own tale of the events that befell him during his solo mission. The first section of Chapter 16 has thus been replaced, and retitled "Aki and Miyaro". The sections that follow by Xiao Ping/Aiko Kaijitsu remain as they were, so there is no need to read those again.
Aki and Miyaro
Session 17 took place Saturday, December 8th, and the Tide of Honor module was completed. Look for updates in the near future!
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated. Four new sections round out the rest of Session 16.
Without giving too much away, after the "adventure" part of the session was over, and we'd left the Teahouse, an inevitable PC vs. PC scenario played out.
Our group has been playing RPG for thirty years. We have not had PC vs. PC in longer than fair Ping can remember, more than fifteen years, at least.
This Pathfinder adventure path has provoked passions in the players we haven't seen in a while. It has been great fun. Thanks guys.
And now the conclusion... (to session 16, that is)
Return of the Samurai, A Wedding and a Baby, The Teahouse, Fracture
Session 17 is this Saturday, December 8, 2012
Fireballs for the Holidays! and hugs,
Gentle Reader,
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated. The re-appearance of Allegro and the attempt on the bandit's mountain fortress Seinaru Heikiko to recover Jiro's katana.
The battle shows that the notions of good and evil remain as large an issue as ever. The pressure continues to build.
Back to the Fortress
Ping is again the author. We will also at some point be making a change to the opening of Chapter 16.
The player that runs Aki is currently creating his own account of his solo mission. I (as a player) arrived late and didn't realize how much if his catch-up mission I had actually missed, so the Narrator voice for "Aki and Miyaro" will at some point be replaced with Aki's own true account of his adventure with the Ninja clans.
I will post here when it is updated, or when Xiao Ping finishes the rest of the account of session 16.
Thank you and best regards,
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated. Session 16 was last Saturday. This is a shorter update to catch Aki back up with everyone else. Allegro returns and more to come next week!
Chapter 16: Aki and the Farmer and Hanzo Blade
Happy Holidays!
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated, and is now current. Aiko Kaijitsu's version of events for session 15 are complete.
Our next session is scheduled for this Saturday, November 10, 2012.
Chapter 15
The sections titled "The Ronin" and "The Fortress" are the new sections.
Of course, we meet the Ronin and assail the bandit lord's hidden mountain fortress...
Best to everyone,
Aiko Kaijitsu
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated. Quite a bit more role-playing this session. This includes last weeks update too. Sorry, I forgot to announce last week's update on this forum.
Session 15 Ping's Journal
More to come, next session of play will be November 10, 2012.
Xiao Ping has posted her account of the confrontation with Munasukaru.
Chapter 14 The Penance of Munasukaru
Pathfinder game session 15 is scheduled for this Saturday, October 13, 2012.
Xiao Ping/Aiko Kaijitsu has posted the first installment of her account of session 14 of our Jade Regent Pathfinder game. After skipping posting a week, it is close to a double entry.
Chapter 14 The Longest Fight
The next part of chapter 14 will come in a week or so and will detail the final battle against Munasukaru, and reveal that the rift between Ochir, Wen, and Lo is still very much a problem.
THe Silks End Chronicles has been updated. For Chapter 13, Xia penned Aki's solo catch-up adventure with Miyaro. Xiao Ping has posted her entire account of session 13 after this.
Chapter 13
The party has reached the Forest of Spirits, and discovered the House of Withered Blossoms.
Spoilers lie in wait!
Session 14 was moved up to this Saturday, September 15, there should be more updates during the coming weeks!
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated. Wen has added his travel journal at the end of Chapter 12. This is his version of the events that occurred during session 12.
Chapter 12
We played our gaming session 13 as planned Saturday August 25, 2012 and entered the Forest of Spirits. The journal entries for this session will begin to appear next week.
Hello Everyone,
The Silk's End Chronicles has been updated. Xiao Ping has posted the second half of Chapter 12, and brought the journal up to date with our game sessions. Our next game session is scheduled for this Saturday.
Silks End Chronicles-Chapter 12
Enjoy our adventures and party upheavals as we walk the Jade Regent adventure path!
Thanks for the kind words! The second half of Chapter 12 is in the works and should post in the next few days. We will be posting here that the site has been updated.
Hello everyone,
Allow me to introduce The Silk's End Chronicles. The Chronicles are a collection of in-character journals and letters from our Jade Regent Campaign. The main line is towed by Xiao Ping, whose real name is Aiko Kaijitsu, the younger sister of Ameiko Kaijitsu.
Our campaign follows the main plotlines of the Pathfinder Jade Regent Adventure Path; however, our campaign is set on Earth, beginning in the year 1268. It opens in Silk's End, our equivalent of Sandpoint, and Sandru's caravan goes from there.
We update frequently. A list of update dates can be found on the Campaign info page. We play one long session per month. Each Chapter of the Chronicles covers one game session. As we make this first post, our party is just now reaching ninth level, and finally arriving in Japan to find out what is in store for the second half of the series. We decided to go by sea.
There are spoilers, so be warned.

Victorinox: Fan Letters, Sydney
There are only a few companies that regularly receive personal letters of appreciation from their customers. Victorinox is in this lucky situation.

So we've decided to make their fan letters into the actual campaign.

Probably the most un-bad ass story on earth. Wow.
The other executions were cool and told tales of people using the knife to survive drowning, being burnt alive in a metal coffin and choking to death on a bone stabbing into their throat.
This one just saved a group of people from an awkward silence.
Remove this execution from the campaign and you have some cool stories to tell.

YOUNGSTOWN — Youngstown State University's provost and vice president for academic affairs, Dr. Robert K. Herbert, drowned while vacationing in Costa Rica.
Herbert became YSU's provost in July 2005.
"We are all stunned by this tragic news," said YSU President David C. Sweet. "As a member of the YSU family, a colleague and a friend, Bob will be missed by us all. Our deepesy sympathies are with Bob's wife and family."
Further details about the death were not available, the university said Saturday in a statement; information on funeral arrangements also was not known.
Herbert's wife is Dr. Barbara Nykiel-Herbert, a faculty member in YSU's English department. They have two sons and a daughter.

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — The top Republican in the state Senate is undergoing surgery to remove a tumor in his abdomen.
Walla Walla Sen. Mike Hewitt said in a statement Friday that the thymoma tumor was only recently discovered. He is set to undergo surgery on Monday.
Hewitt says he is very optimistic about the outcome and expects to be back at work soon after spending a couple days recovering at University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle. The medical procedure comes as top lawmakers, including Hewitt, have been working to finalize a long-sought budget deal.
Hewitt was first elected to the Senate in 2000 and rose to become Senate Republican Leader in 2005. Hewitt and his wife have two grown sons.

What We Can Do
Clara E. Rodriguez
As the chapters in this volume make clear, Americans of Hispanic descent are truly "out of the picture." What can be done? Although it may seem that the prospects for change are dim, there is much that can be done, particularly if we join with others in these efforts toward change. 1 Even simple individual efforts, detailed in this chapter, that we can make as consumers of media can do much to change the current situation. That change is possible is evident from the success of other efforts at social change that appeared to be just as formidable. Who would have predicted in 1980 that no smoking legislation would permeate universities, airports, restaurants, and corporations, and that cigarette ads would be banned at some athletic events? Who could have foreseen the important role that shareholder resolutions played in corporate divestment in South Africa? Who would have thought megadevelopers like Disney and Donald Trump would have to complete environmental impact statements and mitigate environmental impacts in their projects?
Small victories are also evident in the media field. Wilson and Gutiérrez ( 1995) document the results of earlier successful change efforts for many various groups, including Latinos. More recent victories have also been claimed. 2 These victories have generally not been acknowledged, however. Media outlets seldom discuss (particularly in the media) their inadequacies with regard to misrepresentation and underrepresentation of Latinos or other groups in programming and staffing. Moreover, few will admit to being pressured. Thus, awareness of the victories gained is limited, and many victories claimed as successes by advocacy groups such as the National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC) or smaller, more local groups such as Latinos for Positive Images (LPI) 3 are denied by their targets. 4 But the reality is that such efforts do have a substantial effect, particularly on those who invest in the ventures that are objected to, including corporate sponsors, investors, and producers.
Clearly, problems remain to be confronted. This is an area in which artistic freedom is often sacrosanct, and the line between its defense and discrimination or exclusion is blurry at best. This is also a period of escalating costs for media productions and cut-

This happened yesterday.
Went out the door for work 6:45 AM. Had my Giant Boulder SE P(nothing special, bought it used on eBay to keep as a knock-around bike to play with until I could afford a nice road bike) with me. I keep it inside to keep it safe from thieves (had a securely locked up Trek 800 stolen off the bike rack earlier this year). So, I carried it up the steps and out the door, then remember I left my folder inside that I needed for class after work. Left the bike leaning next to my apt. building and ran inside. I was in...for maybe 20-25 seconds TOPS. Found the folder, put it in backpack, dug around make sure I had all the papers I needed. Come outside, bike is gone.
And around here, on a college campus, 6:45 AM means the area is a ghost town. Students are all asleep. NO cars on the road. I have long open streets all around me. So I ran all around looking up and down the streets to see if I saw some ******* riding it away...and nothing. I checked behind the building, bushes, in the building's hallways...spritning back and forth, and nothing. Just poof...gone. What kind of thief is waiting around that early? Who has the ****in balls to see me jump off the bike...run inside...and still know they'd have enough time to grab and it disappear before I came back out?
It just blew my mind. Deserted, outdoor area...run inside...come back...bike is gone without a trace. Sigh. People make me sick.

This is a discussion I had on Tandem@Hobbes a number of years ago with no satisfactory resolution.
A website: http://www.exploratorium.edu/cycling/aerodynamics1.html. provides a simplistic model to show how much power a cyclist produces under given conditions. If one enters their speed & wind velocity, it calculates power produced. It shows that riding 20mph in still air is the same as 10mph into a 10mph headwind. Where it falls apart is that it shows the same power output at 1mph into a 19mph headwind (and even the same standing still with a 20mph headwind). So, the model is obviously flawed.
It is my intuitive experience that power output is not solely dependent on "airspeed". If not, why does is seem to take more power to ride 20mph in still air than 10mph into a 10mph headwind? Where does the power go?
When I think about where power goes when cycling on flat ground, there are really only two sinks: rolling/bearing friction and air drag. I assume that rolling/bearing friction are small and not speed dependent.
The only explanation I can come up with is that wheels spinning at 20mph "churn" more air than wheels spinning at 10mph.
Does anyone have a clear explanation of where the power goes?

All of our holidays are financially protected
Total Financial Protection.
Your holiday is in safe hands with us.
What does this mean?
The Travel Wizard are part of Barrhead Travel Service Ltd, one of the UK's largest travel organisations, with an annual turnover of just over 190 million. You can book with total confidence, and be assured that you are in safe hands.
Our partnership with paypoint.net means your debit & credit card details are safe and secure! Without being too technical, the system uses an industry certified (PCI DSS Level 1) secure and encrypted payment gateway, meaning your details cannot be intercepted by any third party.
Seven islands and six islets make up the Canary Islands and this archipelago is situated just over 100km off the west coast of Africa. All islands enjoy a temperate climate – making any of them a perfect holiday location for a last minute booking for autumn, winter and spring and a chance to top up your tan, relax and enjoy some water sports.
By choosing an all inclusive holiday, you can enjoy three luxury buffet meals per day with hot and cold food, and unlimited locally produced wine, beer and spirits, soft drinks and tea and coffee. Because you pay for food and drinks when you book your holiday, all your spending money can be spent on entertainment and souvenirs for your friends and relatives (and for yourself, of course).
Being volcanic islands, the sand is mostly black, but there are some wonderful golden sandy beaches on all the islands.
There are five main holiday islands: Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and La Palma. Other islands (or islets), such as El Hierro and La Gomera, are great for a day trip to get away from the hustle and bustle.
Tenerife is the largest and highest of the Canary Islands (and one of the most popular holiday destinations for the British)– Mount Teide is situated in the National Park, which affords excellent views of the island on cloudless days. Playa de las Americas is the hub of the island, bustling with nightlife, shops and surfing and water sport opportunities. Loro Parque (parrot park) is an amazing zoo with frequent dolphin, whale, parrot and sea lion shows.
Gran Canaria has a wonderful sandy beach in the south of the island (perfect for beach holiday lovers) and stretches for 4km from Maspalomas to Playa del Ingles. Walk from one end to the other and then catch the local bus back to your starting point. Puerto de Mogan is a beautiful olde worlde fishing port, just the place to try the local fish restaurants and take an afternoon trip on a boat to see the dolphins and whales splashing in the beautiful blue Atlantic Ocean.
Lanzarote is the home of the Timanfaya National Park. Underground fire chasms where you can cook food on the BBQ at the Restaurant del Fuego. Hire a car, or take an excursion to the cactus garden (Jardin de los Cactus) which is home to over 1400 species of cacti, then on to the Cuevas de los Verdes (crawl through the caves)and then on to Jameo del Agua and see the tiny white blind crabs foraging in the blue lagoon.
Fuerteventura is known as the 'windy island'. Gleaming white beaches, not too crowded, a plethora of water sports to enjoy, good restaurants with seafood, and some historical sites – pick up some leaflets from the local tourist office. This island is for the more adventurous and energetic holiday makers who are not just there for the sunbathing.
La Palma, the fifth largest of the Canary Islands, is the quietest of the main islands, and possibly the most beautiful as it is unspoilt by tourism. Black sandy beaches, luscious forests and blue Atlantic sea. Definitely a photo opportunity to capture the flora and fauna, quaint white-washed houses and beautiful sunsets.
A last minute late deal or a carefully planned holiday to any one of these islands will not leave you disappointed.

Our pianist, who plays every evening from 6.30pm Monday to Saturday, is equally adept and happy to oblige with the occasional request.

Unique Gin and Tonic Experience
When you order a gin and tonic it is normally served in a highball glass and the only choice you make is whether to have ice and a slice. This defeats the whole purpose of the distiller. Here at the Chesterfield Mayfair Hotel we have taken this evergreen classic and show how all the ingredients combine to create a range of flavours.
Our resident mixologists will guide you through an innovative and exciting gin and tonic tour. We have created 4 sensational menu tastings where you will have the opportunity to sample selected gins ranging from citrus to floral, savoury to spiced, accompanied by your choice of tonic water. See our tasting menu for details.

Friday Open Thread
Long week, right? Lots of Gmail chains ("A bird is like, attacking this baby") and Craigslist behavior and of course all that mess with Heartbleed, which appears to have just become significantly worse? But we're hanging in there, even if "there" means Daytona, even if one way or another, we're thinking about death. We'll be fine; we've got a hot UPS man (maybe we will write him a note?) and Ursula Le Guin watching YouTube, and we've got our horoscopes to guide us. I for one am bare-legged for the first time in months and feeling optimistic. What's new with you? Let us know, and we'll see you back on Monday.

1939 Ford Tudor Sedan - Performance Exhaust System InstallWritten by on July 1, 1996 Exhaust-Pipe And Muffler Installation
Project Freeway Fats is a 39 Ford Tudor sedan. In this series of build-up stories, were detailing the fabrication, restoration and assembly of the car using some of the top builders in the country as sources. Many of the build-up techniques involved are common to all street rods, and many more are common to all types of hot rod projects, regardless of year, make or model. Project Freeway Fats is designed to draw upon those techniques and illustrate how to build a reliable, durable, daily-driven street rod. The emphasis is less on flash than on function, and the greatest stress is being placed on the cars handling, performance and safety.
With the GT-40 5.0L Ford Motorsport engine in place, we transported the fat-fendered sedan rolling chassis from Magoos Street Rods to Porter Muffler for the installation of the exhaust pipes and mufflers. We selected a set of Walker DynoMax Ultra Flo stainless-steel mufflers to mate with the Sanderson headers on the 300hp V8, and we relied on the expertise of Bruce Tappeiner of Porter Muffler to custom route the dual exhaust for the Ford.
The Ultra Flo muffler offers a straight-through design for minimum backpressure and maximum flow. Its stainless-steel construction resists corrosion, and its relatively large case aids in low- frequency noise control. Internally, a high-temperature fiberglass fill helps absorption and offers an enhanced exhaust note, and the large-diameter perforations in the internal tube maximize sound absorption. The Ultra Flo is available in 14- to 30-inch lengths for a variety of applications, and its available in round and oval configurations.
For custom installations such as ours, Tappeiner initially positions the mufflers in the chassis, giving consideration to the optimum layout of the total exhaust, and then routes the pipes. For our application, he fabricated the main muffler hanger from 2x4-inch mild-steel rectangular tubing. After creating a paper template for the hanger, he used a plasma cutter to section the tubing into a one-piece angled hanger. He fabricated the rest of the exhaust using 16-gauge, 2-inch soft muffler tubing. The tubing is available in an aluminized material, but we will have our tubes coated by Jet-Hot in the same chrome-like ceramic material as was applied to the headers.Stay tuned as the fat one begins to look like a car again.

The stainless-steel DynoMax Ultra Flo muffler from Walker is a straight-through design. Its low restriction and low backpressure properties make it ideal for performance applications, and it's available in oval or round models.After determining the optimum positioning for the exhaust, Porter Muffler's Bruce Tappeiner created a paper template and then plasma cut a set of hangers out of 2x4-inch rectangular tubing.When welded into place, the resulting angled mild-steel hanger offers a strong, reinforced platform upon which to fasten the muffler to the frame.The muffler is supported on a stand and is attached to the hanger using standard muffler U-bolt clamps.Tappeiner then establishes the pipe route from the header collector to the muffler inlet using easily bendable welding rod.He uses the welding rod as a template for bending the 2-inch exhaust pipe into the exact shape required for a custom fit to the chassis.The collector end of the pipe is flared and then fitted up to the collector, where it is marked for trimming.
The completed passenger's-side exhaust is neatly routed through the chassis, and the muffler is sturdily attached to the frame.Tappeiner fabricated a second hanger at the rear of the frame to support the back half of each exhaust pipe.
