Armor Vellum III's and Snowfall inks (sold in offhand and runescroll form) are an excellent way to make money with inscription without having to get into the mess of posting glyphs. There are much less organizational skills required and your products sell very quickly with a decent amount of profit. Combine this strategy with glyph sales as a scribe for maximum profits."Greetings Markco,
I have followed your blog for quite a while and i am fascinated on how effective most of these hints are.
I wondered, if there might be a possibility to add a search function to your blog.
Sometimes I get lost within all your posts when I am searching for a new way to get some coins into my pocket.
Some weeks ago, I was looking for a new way to get money and I looked at all those glyphs my Priest can produce.
I searched the AH for some valuable stuff, but got bored pretty fast. So I decided to make some Armor Vellum III for a friend.
When I offered them to him, he said, he already got enough, so I listed them in the AH.
I bought about 100xAdder's Tongue to make the ink and got about 60xArmor Vellum III and 5xSnowfall ink.
These cost about 10-15g/stack so I payed about 70g for this. Plus 40s Paper for each Armor Vellum III (2xPaper for 2xVellum).
Everyone who knows the prices for Snowfall ink and/or Armor Vellum III might know where this is going.
I list 1xArmor Vellum III for 5-10g on the AH. 60x5g=300g...minimum...300-
600g just for all Armor Vellum III.
Each Snowfall ink produces 5 Runescrolls, which sell for about 5g each (40s/paper each runescroll additional cost).
As many enchanter need those to sell their stuff on the AH, they won't go down with the price. I sell about 40-60 individual Armor Vellum III together.
estimated profit: 70g(ressources)+20g(paper)=
500g(est. 50xArmor Vellum III)+125g(est. 5xSnowfall ink) / 90g(investment)=625g(profit)
I hope you can add some suggestions of yours to this.

Site search is dead easy with Google. Just put in your search term and the site restrictor.
For example:

I see a few problems with his math. First off, in inscription you really need to do two calculations, one for milling and one for producing finished items. The point here is that you need to internally establish a value for snowfall and IotS. This will make it much easier to evaluate your different output options. As a side effect you can also then watch the ink markets and buy inks if they fall below your internal value. (No milling! Yay!)
I couldn't imagine a JC that couldn't tell you what an uncut cardinal ruby is worth off the top of his head. Yet all the time I see scribes say "I turned this pile of herbs into runescrolls and vellum" and have no idea if they would have made more or less making glyphs and offhands instead. Or making decks and selling IotS on the AH.

What's IotS mean?
Ahmad said... April 13, 2010 at 9:48 PM
While what Sassafras said true. except for this is server dependent. On my server I can't sell the inks. Even if i list the Iots and snowfall ink at 70% market value (5-6g iots and 8-9g snowfall) most if not all will be returned. There is simply no market for the inks. Then how you get rid of the excess inks?
Crafting the vellums and runescrolls are more profitable in the sense that I will have a guaranteed sales (well 90% of the time). All I can say is what the market, post a few things as experimental runs and then see what works and what doesn't work. The key thing is being smart and always take steps to minimize your loss.
Daniel said... April 14, 2010 at 2:08 AM
Sassafras, I believe the topic was about "options". What other options do you have other than glyphs.
Glyphs is a very daunting market to get into. And while I personally have made it, it does require a lot of babysitting the glyph-alt if you want to make any serious money. Thank God for remote desktop from work during computer calculation (aka movie rendering) time. ;)
SaSSafraS said... April 14, 2010 at 1:23 PM
Oh, I don't disagree with the main point of his post. If you can sell vellum for a profit that's a great low-volume low-hassle alternative to glyphs. My point was that most of his profit was actually from milling, not crafting vellum.
And obviously eveything varies by server. (I wish I had OP's 25g per snowfall market to dump onto!) But I know on my server if you post IotS at 2g or less they will sell, in pretty much any quantity (probably to me - no milling, wheee!)
Simbaria said... April 14, 2010 at 2:15 PM
The big difference with incription and, say, enchanting or jewelcrafting:
Ink is made by scribes, for use by scribes; no other professions use it.
Enchanting materials are used in other professions, and are generated by characters who are not enchanters when in instances with enchanters.
Gems are made by alchemists and bought by anyone for honour, rather than being primarily generated by the jewelcrafters.
This means there is very little market for inks, as opposed to the materials used in other professions.
And as such, any price you have for ink of the sea should be an internal one, rather than based on the market.
Concaviah said... April 14, 2010 at 2:19 PM
As an enchanter, I would say that vellums are a market that realy does not seem to have enough products being made.
I will happily pay 5g for Armor Vellum III's or 10g for the Weapon Vellum III's, and would much prefer to buy stacks of 20 to single items.
When I'm runnning out, I'll pay more, too.
So I would reiterate - check the market for vellums, and make some if there is a profit in it for you. There will be 100's of these used each day to satisy the demand for enchanting scrolls.
SeelenGeier aka. Luzianus said... April 15, 2010 at 4:38 AM
I know, that you can't get a fix value on all those calculations, but you should get the idea, why Armor Vellum III is profitable.
The Inks alone don't sell well. Especially because only scribes use them. The Price is server dependend. IotS costs about 6-7g on Todeswache(EU) and snowfallink for about 7-8g (strange but true). I hardly sell any of these even if I sell IotS for 3-4g. Armor Vellum III is highly demanded and therefore you can sell those for very low profit but in high numbers.
Just remember 1 IotS make 2 Armor Vellum III ! So if you don't mill yourself (I personally recommend milling adder's tongue), you can sell the armor Vellum III for half of the price of IotS (+40s paper) and add your profit.
So if you buy IotS for 5g you can sell AVIII for 2.9g (thats very low). make it 4g (also very low) and post 20 full stacks on friday. You might even have to repost more, because of the high demand.
I don't sell or use the snowfallinks, just too much of a hassle. I save them for later if I make some Darkmoon cards.
SaSSafraS said... April 15, 2010 at 2:02 PM
If you are claiming you can't sell IotS then I think you don't understand demand curves. Or maybe there aren't any serious glyphers on your server.
I value my IotS at 2g. My server usually has it listed around 2.5 but sometimes it drops below 2. When it does I will buy all of it. This is not frequent, but when it happens I am quite happy, as it saves me milling. 100 stacks at 1.85 per ink? Sold! And whoever milled it still made 100% profit without counting snowfall inks (deadnettle and talandra's go for .25 here), so they're happy too.
Take a lesson from Gevlon. If it doesn't sell then lower your prices.
Markco said... April 15, 2010 at 2:57 PM
The point of this post is that you should make an effort to sell everything for maximum profit: glyphs, vellums, off hands, cards and runescrolls. If one market isn't profitable, then the others probably are good alternatives.
SaSSafraS, your point about demand curves is very true, I have seen the rare occasion where it is profitable to sell ink of the sea for a decent profit.

Defending Small-Sided Games and Drills Competition
We recently asked coaches to submit their favorite defending drills and small-sided game. We picked one from all the entries as the winner and the coach received a $200 gift certificate to our site. The winner was Gabriel Celante for his Transitional Defending Game. Here's a look at the game.
Transitional Defending Game
This Transitional Defending Game focuses on developing and practicing defending cooperation, defensive pressure, and specific decision making while defending. This small sided game also focuses on developing transition to build attack and possession in a defensive and offensive zone, anticipation, cognitive abilities such as vision and awareness, and soccer specific endurance.
Divide the field in two halves as showed in
the diagram 1:
One Gk, six Blue players
(offenses) and four White
players (defenses) in the first
One GK and two White players
(defenses) in the second half.
The game is played for set period of time or
until a team reaches a certain score.
The game begins with the Blue team keeping the ball away from White team (6 vs. 4). After making 6 consecutive passes, the Blue team (with the ball under their possession) and two White players move to the second half as showed in the diagram 1. After moving to the second half, the Blue team tries to score as fast as they can while the White team tries to recovery on defense as fast as they can in order to try to protect
their goal and steal the ball from Blue team. (Diagram 2).
Defenders Win the Ball
If the White team wins the ball in the first half, they pass it to their teammates on the other half (Diagram3), start connecting passes, and try to do the same thing the Blue team was doing in the beginning of the game (6 consecutive passes and move to the other half to try to score. (Diagram4)
If the defending team (It can be White or Blue team. It depends who has the ball possession at that moment) wins the ball in the second half, the attacking team starts the game over again from the first half.
Variation 1
6 vs. 4 in the first half and 6 vs. 5 in the second half.
Variation 2
6 vs. 4 in the first half and 6 vs. 6 in the second half.
Variation 3
If the defending team steals the ball, they become attacking team and play a 6 vs. 6 until the ball goes out of play or the defending team regains the ball possession and cross the half-line.
Coaching Points
Team Work (Cooperation)
Defensive and Offensive awareness
Decision Making
Accurate Passes
Transition Quickly (defense to offense and offense to defense)
Recovery Play
Good Defending – The defending team must adjust based on who has the ball, where
players are on the field etc.
Good Attacking – The team in possession should make runs off the ball to create space
for themselves and teammates.
(Gabriel Celante, Soccer Coach and Strength/Conditioning Coach, BRASA – Brazilian Soccer Academy)
Help us spread the word. If you share this article on Facebook, Twitter and Google + we'll you a PDF copy of another very good defending session. The session is a small-sided game that can be used in small groups or with a full team. It was submitted by Philip Pierce and Tom Martin of James Madison University.
Thanks for sharing this article. Here's the link that we promised of another very good session from the competition.

Daily Journal reports
Football took Wesley Walls on a journey from Pontotoc County to Ole Miss to a 14-year career in the NFL.
On Thursday, he was one of 14 players announced as the 2014 class of the College Football Hall of Fame.
Walls will be the 11th Ole Miss player to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, which moves into a $66 million facility in Atlanta that's scheduled to open in August. The induction ceremony is scheduled for Dec. 9 in New York.
Born in Batesville, Walls played quarterback for three seasons at South Pontotoc High School and was an All-State fullback as a senior at Pontotoc. At Ole Miss (1985-88), he played defensive end and linebacker for three seasons and was an All-American at tight end as a senior.
In the Rebels' 1988 season-opener against Memphis, Walls started on both offense and defense. His signature effort came a few weeks later, when he had seven catches and a sack in a 22-12 win at Alabama.
"He had an amazing career and is very deserving of this honor," Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze said in a statement.
Walls was a second-round draft pick by San Francisco in 1989. He played three seasons there, two (1994-95) for New Orleans and then rose to prominence in eight seasons (1996-2002) with Carolina.
Walls, now 48, last played in the NFL in 2003 with the Green Bay Packers. He finished with 450 catches for 5,291 yards and 54 touchdowns in 190 games.
The remainder of the 2014 class includes Alabama linebacker Derrick Thomas, who died in 2000, TCU running back LaDainian Tomlinson, South Carolina receiver Sterling Sharpe and Louisiana Tech offensive tackle Willie Roaf.

Director Eli Roth is best known among cinephiles for directing absurd splatterfests like Cabin Fever and the Hostel series, and bashing Nazis' brains out with a bat in Inglourious Basterds. But Roth also apparently enjoys a fruitful side career away from all the violence and gore: He's just directed a goofy, family-friendly music video for the artist formerly known as Snoop Dogg.
The video for "La La La," the Diplo/Major Lazer-produced first single from Snoop's upcoming reggae album Reincarnated, finds the former rapper chilling in a magical playplace full of children, animal costumes and claymation wonders. It's all very Barney and Friends, even if that purple dinosaur didn't have much in the way of scantily clad vixens or vague voodoo coffin rituals.
Check out the video below. What do you think of Snoop's new patois?

Big band duo in the grooveMusic
Maria Schneider's set featured some of the composer's most ravishing tunes.
Reviewer rating:
Maria Schneider and Darcy James Argue
Melbourne International Jazz Festival
Melbourne Recital Centre, June 6
Sydney's Jazzgroove Mothership Orchestra turns 10 this year, and – as far as birthday celebrations go – performing with two of the world's most in-demand big band leaders is hard to beat.
Thursday's double bill must have been as daunting for the orchestra as it was thrilling for the audience. Two celebrated international composers; two programs of intensely demanding material; two days of rehearsals to pull it all together.
No wonder Darcy James Argue took his hat off (literally) to JMO leader David Theak at the end of the evening.
Argue writes elaborate, bracingly original compositions that often feel like the musical equivalent of a roller-coaster ride.
Sections of the orchestra are pitted against one another in idiosyncratic counterpoint, while constant shifts in mood and metre maintain the air of unpredictability.
The gripping Brook-lyn Babylon suite followed a tightly constructed narrative where the orchestra morphed from Balkan brass band to minimalist classical ensemble to thrusting rock band.
What the music lacked was warmth – in stark contrast to Maria Schneider's set, which featured some of the composer's most ravishing tunes. As a conductor, Schneider's gestures were more fluid and expansive than Argue's, encouraging the music (and the musicians) to breathe.
The two dance-inspired "romances", Choro Dancado and Danca Illusoria, shimmered with intoxicating colours and rhythms.
And the closer, Sky Blue, enveloped the audience as tenderly as an embrace, David Theak's soprano sax gliding and swooping over the swelling theme with impassioned grace. Exquisite.
Maria Schneider performs with students from the Sir Zelman Cowen School of Music at Monash University's Alexander Theatre on Saturday, June 8.

Recently prominent actress Angelina Jolie spoke out about her controversial decision to undergo a mastectomy after learning she was carrying the BRCA1 gene. Carriers of the gene are supposedly at a greater risk of developing breast cancer than those who do not. For working women, the decision to undergo a mastectomy is a traumatic one no matter what the circumstances. The pain of the breast removal is exacerbated by the reconstruction process. Typical reconstruction consists of saline or silicone implants which carry a risk of rupturing or adverse reactions in the body. Central Florida women do have another choice, breast reconstruction via fat grafting.
Autologous fat transfer or AFT is the process of removing fat from other parts of the body and inserting it in small droplets into the breasts. For women who have undergone a mastectomy, the procedure is a natural one that leaves virtually no scars. Even more important for working women, the down time after surgery is minimal and the procedure can be done on an outpatient basis. Local Winter Park plastic surgeon Dr. Jeffrey Hartog, performs the surgery at the Bougainvillea Clinique. Perhaps the most outspoken proponent of the procedure is his wife, Michelle. Michelle is a busy working woman and student, who chose fat transfer after she received a breast cancer diagnosis. It took five procedures and approximately one year for Michelle to achieve her desired look. She is quick to point out that unlike other procedures, there was minimal downtime for her. Undergoing surgery on Thursday she was back to work the following Monday.
The fat grafting procedure or AFT is done in stages. The number of stages depends on the size of the reconstruction. A partial mastectomy requires fewer stages than a complete one which could take more stages if radiation is involved. The costs for this type of reconstruction can range between $15-20k per procedure which is less costly than other more invasive forms of reconstruction. Insurance typically covers the procedure after preauthorization, but this can be a daunting task since the fat transfer surgeries are still relatively new. For working women in the Central Florida area looking to reclaim their lives as quickly as possible after the pain of a mastectomy, the fat transfer process may be one of the best options. If you would like more information on the procedure visit the Bougainvillea Website or contact Dr. Hartog at (866) 985-4741.

Nineteen students from Purchase College spent their Spring Break in New Orleans working with nonprofit organizations on deconstruction projects in the hurricane-ravaged city. Students gutted homes and deconstructed materials to recycle houses which would eventually be demolished. Another group of eight students assisted adults and children living with AIDS/HIV in Philadelphia. The students were in New Orleans and Philadelphia the week of March 11-19.
One group of students worked with ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations to Reform Now. They stayed at Camp Algiers, and slept in a tent with 377 people, all of whom were there to help out with various organizations. They worked from 9 AM to 3 PM everyday and in five days completely gutted four houses. Each house had its own story and contributed more memories to the trip and more reasons to keep working harder on the next house, according to the students.
"Gutting" a house included tearing down the walls and ceilings, removing fiberglass insulation, door and window frames, carpet and flooring, kitchen and bathroom fixtures and other furniture or personal items that remained in the home. Many of the items that they removed from the houses were covered in mold, some still wet from the flood waters.
There was a strong sense of focus and teamwork on getting the job done. As one group knocked down a wall or ceiling, another group would clean up the debris. If anyone needed help, especially with removing the wet carpets, there was always a group of people ready and willing to jump in.
Each house had its own story and contributed more memories to the trip and more reasons to keep working harder on the next house, according to the students.
The first house belonged to a man, who, as it turned out, was a famous radio personality. Among other things, the students found photos of him with Louis Armstrong and other notable jazz musicians of the era. In the second house, they found some military memorabilia, while gutting the first floor. The owner of the house was taken aback and moved beyond words when presented with the items. As it turned out, these were the only remaining items she had of her brother, someone she lost in the 9th Ward during the floods of hurricane Katrina.
The owners of the third house were an elderly couple and their daughter, who lived in a very tight-knit community and had strong relationships with the neighbors, one of whom was the pastor for the church across the street. While taking a break at the end of their third day, the students spoke with the neighbors who shared stories of their experiences with the floods. One woman spoke of her escape from her house in the 9th Ward as she and her two young children climbed to their roof for safety and then all three of them jumped to a neighbor's and climbed to their second floor. She felt lucky having to be there for only two days. The final house left no stories, but the students gutted the entire three bedrooms, garage, kitchen, two baths and large living room in five hours.
The students who participated in the ACORN project were:
Chris Booth – Shandaken, NY
Casey Chandler – Woodstock, NY
Kayla Cohen – Rochester, NY
Sheila Fitzgerald – Troy, NY
Tara McGrath – Levittown, NY
K. Michael Myers – Rye, NY
Nicolas Peden – Claverack, NY
Timothy Reardon, Enfield, CT.
Jamie Trujillo – Nyack, NY
Amy Weng – Union, NJ
Another group of students worked with the Green Project, a non-profit organization serving Southeast Louisiana and the Mississippi Coast. The Green Project is an important player in efforts to rebuild livable neighborhoods, preserving both modern and historical buildings, and reducing the waste stream. Participants deconstructed materials to recycle some of the many houses which will eventually come down. The Green Project Store sells salvaged new and used building materials, paint, garden supplies, art materials and fabric. All of their materials are donated and would otherwise have been dumped in landfills. Students helped revitalize building materials and assisted the organization's staff of the Green Project Store.
The students who participated were:
Adam Abdalla- Brooklyn, NY
Nathan Barron- Sandy Creek, NY
Alexis Della Costa- Kendall, NY
Joanna Firneno- Richboro, PA
Rachel Frank- Larchmont, NY
John-T Howard- Miller Place, NY
Michael Ippolito- New York, NY
Chris Miano- Port Washington, NY
Matthew Vanderlee- Webster, NY
In addition to the New Orleans projects, several students worked with MANNA, a not-for-profit, non-sectarian organization that provides essential and specialized services to men, women and children living with HIV / AIDS in Delaware, Pennsylvania and Central/Southern New Jersey. Participants cooked food and delivered meals throughout the Philadelphia area to clients of MANNA.
The students who participated were:
Meghan Brady- East Meadow, NY
Liam Dean- Rocky Point, NY
Blair Gershenson- West Babylon, NY
Katy Mitchell- Ellington, CT
Edward Prunoske- Rochester, NY
Denise Simone- Yonkers, NY
Crystal Tyndall- Setauket, NY
Dasha Weinstock- Bayside, NY

"A Little Country Town" Milford by von.otter
Milford Travel Guide: 9 reviews and 43 photos
The borough of Milford, in Pike County, Pennsylvania, is the county seat. As of the 2000 census the population was 1,104.
This is the country. Because it is only a two-hour drive from New York City the area, with plentiful cheap land, it has attracted many second-home owners. With the Delaware River and its branches crisscrossing the area, fishing, boating, canoeing, and kayaking are popular pastimes. Hiking and camping are activities with strong draws, too.
Each year the Black Bear Film Festival, held at the historic Milford Theater, shows a series of independent films. The October festival takes place the weekend following Columbus Day. Each June the Milford Music Festival is a free, weekend event
Milford?s Pike County Historical Society Museum is home to the Lincoln Flag. This flag was draped at the front of Abraham Lincoln?s box in Ford?s Theatre the night he was shot. The flag was used as a pillow to support the president?s head; it still shows signs of his blood. Thomas Gourlay, stage manager at the Ford Theatre, kept the flag. His daughter Jeannie, an actress who had been a cast member in the play, ?Our American Cousin,? at the theatre that night, had inherited the flag. She moved to Milford, and the flag was given to the Museum following her death.
- Pros:Quaint and Quiet
- Cons:Limited, if you are accustomed to a bigger town?s offerings.

Bomberman - Act: Zero (Xbox 360) review
"Despite all of its (well-intentioned?) efforts to give the series a fresh, hardcore coat of paint, it just doesnt do enough things right for the aesthetic focus to mean anything more than that youve just dropped a wad of cash on a $10 game. The carefully-rendered backgrounds do a great job of slapping you across the face with the notion that this world is desolate, but they dont add anything to the play mechanics."

Yea, I paid the $25 for shipping and the $25 for the FFL fee - but there was no sales tax. So, I still came out ahead.

Thanks for the updates. I guess it's $800 + for now. :smt076
Well, it is my understanding that whole sale is $756.
One wholesaler has it listed today for $836.85. I know that they have gone up recently, so that may not be too far above average wholesale now.
we make them here in Belgium, and we are not allout to shoot them, strickly military and police forces
Now that you've had it for a while what do you think about it? You've probably got some good range time in by now. Give us a report and some pictures. :smt023
yes the time honored tradition of arguing over a caliber's usefulness/effectiveness. fact is you would not want to be shot with any of them. if someone breaks into your home and you put two or three in them of any caliber they will not be coming back for more. and as far as "justifying" the purchase. not many of us will ever have a life or death situation that "justifies" our firearms. sometimes they are just really sweet to shoot and own.
Thus, ammunition can be suitable for humans but not animals. How many deer wear a bulletproof vest? How many soldiers do? The 5.7 round is more effective through body armor than most other handgun rounds by sacrificing everything for penetration, but because it relies so highly on penetration it is ballistically inferior in practically every other respect to other rounds which balance penetration and permanent cavity at the expense of armor penetration, and therefore only of greater overall utility in an environment where your adversary is likely to be armored. It's a wartime round, not a personal defense or hunting round.
So, you're both right. The Five-seveN with AP cartridges beats the 9mm and even the .45 on the battlefield, however as AP cartridges are not available stateside it is inferior to both calibers on the street as a police or civilian sidearm.
P.S. - A NATO CRISAT target is not all that. NIJ Standard IV, which is issued to FBI and SWAT counterterrorism tac teams, is far better; it'll protect against a 30-06 armor-piercing round travelling up to 2900fps. That's a bullet with the same penetrating tip, about 7x the mass, and at least 500fps more velocity. A CRISAT target is roughly Standard IIIA, which is designed to stop a non-AP handgun round up to 240 grains at 1400fps (which is up to and including .44 Magnum). Designing an armor-piercing bullet that will defeat a vest not designed to defend against AP is rather pointless; show me a bullet that defeats a vest designed to stop other AP rounds and I'll be impressed.
If you purchase a five seven between 12-1-2007 & 3-31-2008 FN will send you the first 200 rounds free! Just print the form off their website, complete it & attach bill of sale & a copy of your BATFE form 4473 & fax or mail it to them. Saves you about $90! I don't see any other manufacturers offering the first 200 rounds for free. January 1st did bring a price increase but some dealers will sell it at the old prices. I've seen them range from $850 to $1275! There have been a few used ones on forums for around $750 with extra's. I paid $885 for mine shipped off Gunbroker. Ammo is $18-$20 but $24 + tax in local retailers. Can't shoot it indoors at my club so waiting for the weather to break! :smt023
A little Belgian company called FN makes the Browning Hi Power. Its the handgun John Moses Browning designed after a little number we like to call the 1911. The FN factory in South Carolina, FN Manufacturing LLC, has the US government contract for M16, M249 and M240. So I wouldn't dismiss the Belgians when it comes to guns... or chocolate (their love of mayo on french fries is another matter).
For a number of years, my best buddy, lover, mother and father was the FN L1A1 (FAL) until the politicians tried to get me killed by issuing the motherF'ing piece of sh^t jamo-matic SA80. Yes, a FAL is heavier than an M4, but when you need to, you can buttstroke without damaging the rifle.
I can't say I like the five-seven, but it seems a perfect partner if you already have a P90.
Allow me to introduce you to the FRAG-12 fin-stabilized High Explosive Fragmenting Antipersonnel 12 gauge shotgun round.
I first saw a 5.7 ps90 18 months ago. The local Homeland Security people have them.
i saw a 5.7 pistol today and i came home and read up on a lot of info i could find and then i read all of these threads.
i see no need for a civilian to own the pistol except if they have the carbine.
the round was made for NATO in 2000 for the ps90 carbine.
The cartridges they have are far better than what is allowed for civilians. The mag for the ps90 holds 50 rounds - 50 rounds of bullets that the civilians can not get is why the LE personnel have it - the pistol was an after thought -
i agree with mike - there are better handguns for consideration over the 5.7
But does it have a low bore axis? :)
Guns are like a fine tool.
I wouldn't use a screw driver as a hammer. And I wouldn't use a five-7 as a defensive gun.
It's too light, it doesn't punch a big enough hole, and if I've got some 300 pound Polynesian eyes and nostrils flaring like a bull ready to charge in a drug fueled rage I'd never use it as such.
It's an offensive cartridge.
It's got incredible accuracy at distance for a sidearm. And it's got amazing penetration at range. Something a rimfire .22 wouldn't have that you'd sling in a holster. And before the round was completely neutered here in the U.S. (Thanks California.) it was an incredibly lethal firearm that would leave no room for argument at it's potential for serious bodily harm.
It's a great tool for what it's intended for, killing at range, with a compact weapon that can be slapped on your hip.
I just don't understand the debate behind this gun, and why it causes so many bitter arguments. Maybe it's a distinctive mindset with some shooters who look at it as a funky bullet that's nothing more then a way to make money off their exclusive built round. Maybe it's the mindset engrained as they became shooters, and gun owners themselves.
This pistol is featured in the Metal Gear Solid game. Its great for CQC you can nail a target with spot on accuracy from quite a distance too. This thing holds some major ammo in a small arm, 20rds per mag.
If FN was really smart they make a smaller carbine, similar to say a TEC-9 with this round in mind.
Well FN was pretty smart. They make the P90 PDW, and it shoots the 5.7mm round, the same as in the FiveseveN pistol.
Here's a little vid of the P90 for ya. FN P90 VIDEO
Well I have stepped over to the dark side and bought the Five Seven and so far it is serving the purpose quite well and it's not much more expensive the 22 WMR ammo and lot better round.
The 40 gr BT round sure is a stopper of feral dogs at 50 yards or a tad more. And at 25 yards I can put 20 rounds in a 10" pie plate in about the same time I can do 6 from my S&W 610-3 10 mm with 6.5" barrel.
I had to leave the hard slamming slides of my 10 mm automatics behind because of the arthritis in my hands and get something more then a 22 WMR with the ability to be able to stand to practice once a month or so. My 4 10 mm's are gone now, S&W 1006, 1086, G29 and Tanfoglio have all been sold or traded off.
My DW 357 and S&W 610-3 will stay as they do not bother my hand as yet. The DW 357 is like shooting a S&W K22 except lot louder and the 610-3 10 mm is my target gun that I shoot LSWC in and usually have only loaded to about 1000 fps and with that big heavy N frame those are hardly even felt. I sometimes think the slide hammering home is the problem, not recoil as we would normally think.
We have a couple of sponsors at the FN Forum who have some sales on the stuff now, if you buy in bulk.
I have carry firearms, but that does not mean that I should stop purchasing another gun does it, just because I may not ever carry it?
I picked up a 5.7 about 6 months ago. Ammo price was a little bit of a negative aspect at first, but actually it hasn't gon up nearly as much (percentage) as decent ammo for a 9, 40, or 45 has. Love the way the pistol shoots and the recoil is barely noticable.
I would like to shoot one before laying down the loot. Range does not have one in the rental cabinet and probably wont for a while. Might have to see if I know someone who has one before commenting.
I'm not sure where people here are getting their info but:
5.7 ammo (the blue box) is balistic tip jacketed hollow point. You are complaining about a box of 50 for $22?
5.7 is in no way anything like a 22mag. Tests have shown it to crate a wound cavity much like a 9mm.
5.7 is very accurate and has great range with little drop.
5.7 YEP even the civilian ammo will go through some body armor.
So... you can guy a handgun that is every bit as well made as other poly handguns for around the same price as some (HK, Sig etc) that is made by a company with a great rep that provides most of the small arms for our military. The gun is light, holds 20 rounds (30 with small mag extension) has little recoil, super accurate, long range, defeats body armor, does damage similar to a 9mm and the ammo costs less then most other normal rounds for JHP.
Seems the facts disagree with most of the posts.
It's still legal to buy the AP bullets as a civilian from private sellers right? I've seen a couple auction sites where they were selling preban 5.7 AP bullets.

The case for Trump
The last six months or so have been a rather interesting first act of what many, myself included, regard as one of if not the most important Presidential elections in the history of the nation. America, as it was founded, has been in real jeopardy for decades, and the last decade has nearly made it unrecognizable to those who came here looking for that singularly unique American Dream. The vile progs have played the long game, and played it well, hell bent on destroying that dream at any cost, creating in its place a socialist utopian Europey wet dream of diversity-via-totalitarianism stupidity. They succeeded in turning an entire generation of children into drooling vegetables devoid of marketable skills and rational thought. Theyve rekindled the race wars of the 60s to the degree folk like Martin Luther King are quite possibly hard at work in an effort to return to the living simply so they can beat the shit out of the useful idiots who enable it. Theyve saddled the good ship America with enough debt to sink the majority of the rest of the world. Theyve taken a once proud culture of liberty, a shining example throughout all of human history, and turned it into acceptance as a religion glop. Theyve weaponized the government against her people to a degree only dreamed about by fascists a large chunk of the greatest generation died to stop. And on, and on.
Eventually, this was going to come to a head, either in the form of a civil war, or a political correction so abrupt as to rattle the windows for decades to come. And here we are with the latter, which for many is likely the last chance to stop the former.
From the get go, there have been three candidates on the side of sanity who looked as they could do the job. Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and to the chagrin of many who butter their bread on scoff, Donald Trump. The rest were regional players at best who were, for one reason or other, unelectable on a national stage. None of them, however, have had to face the fire of ridicule, hostility, and downright blithering idiocy that has been thrown in the general direction of Trump.
Now, some six to eight months ago, I was hoping for a Cruz/Rubio ticket, which I figured was electable and generally sane. Alas, Rubio tossed his own hat in the ring, having done some very silly things that ultimately saw his campaign implode this past week. Cruz is easily the strongest conservative in the group, and has been my guy for quite some time. But. One of the things those of us who are sick and tired of it all had been looking forward to most of all, was what Newt Gingrich touched on briefly four years ago. Fight the media. Fight the talking heads. Fight the blithering idiocy, and do it loud and convincingly.
Cruz, rather unfortunately, has not done so. He has made an eloquent case for conservatism, and impressed many with his political scruples. Hes also fought quite a bit, though unfortunately, with Trump instead of the targets of the ire of so many. As a result, he is very much out of it, barring some hail mary series of events that has him winning over 80% of remaining delegates.
Now, I was a Cruz guy for quite a while. I like him, and I certainly wont be sobbing in my beer if he somehow wins the Presidency something I consider a long shot against Clinton given his bible thumping and largely uninspiring debates. I have my doubts that Cruz will go for the Clinton jugular to the degree she so richly deserves, and to the degree those who want a fighter want to see. No, demand to see.
Trump, however, is something of a phenomenon very few people saw coming. He was, and still is to those who clearly know whats best, a joke. His accomplishments arent real accomplishments, say those who arent multi-billionaires and who have not run multiple businesses. Hes not playing by the rules. Hes calling out the media, hell, hes owning the media at every turn, and not knuckling under at every turn. This, to his detractors, makes him a child, un-presidential, or whatever other jibe is popular that week.
My feelings on Trump are thus, and based on what Ive heard in business and social circles, quite common among people who work for a living, at any stage of success.
First, the man is a doer. Hes a success. Those who support him dont give one hot damn if he started with family money to build his empire, or went bankrupt, or sold this or lost that. That, as anyone in business will tell you, is simply part of the game. You risk, you lose, you risk, you win, you learn. And if youre very good at that, you make millions. If youre massively better than that, you make billions. Hence, attacking Trumps business acumen is a farce to anyone who has actually, you know, started and run a business. It is also distasteful to those who work their butts off every day, and dare to dream that one day theyll achieve something near that level of success. To crap on Trumps achievements is to crap on that dream, and it is as disingenuous as it is unpalatable. Thats why pretty much every candidate who has tried it has gone down the tubes, and why every pundit to do the same has found themselves somewhere between ignored and reviled by quite a lot of people.
Second, Trump set fire to the concept of political correctness and media talking head kowtowing, and then blew it up and ran over it with a tank, before flying off into the sunset with his 757. He has taken the fight to those very people who enable and facilitate the blithering idiocy so many revile, and he has done it exceptionally well. A great many people do not care if he lacks eloquence at times, for the simple truth that he says what he means and stands behind it, no matter what. This very thing is what had the media talking heads running Trump implosion countdown clocks every Sunday, only to end up with egg on their faces come the next poll or primary. And those who want a fighter eat that up and ask for seconds.
Third, Trump is a leader and a showman. Hes extravagant, brash and unapologetic. His simple motto of Make America Great Again resonates because people believe the guy when he talks about it. He is the polar opposite of the meek, spineless, conniving politician that has sold the average joe down the river for decades. And that, is again exactly what quite a lot of people want.
More recently, Trump has the singular distinction of making just about the entire collection of statist idiots utterly lose their shit. Any state, any country, pick one and they are utterly flipping out over the concept of a Trump Presidency. Mexico, most of Europe, every state run by dipshits they are all shrieking and flailing a little bit louder every day. And quite a lot of people, myself included, love that shit.
The final clincher for me, though, had nothing to do with Trump. No, what did it for me was the petulant, childish reaction that those who should know better, those on our side, presumably, have thrown at the man day in and out. Every Trump win has been met with more whining, more smarmy little quips, more mewling sycophancy to whoever is the anti-Trump from these people so as to bring an eventual Just shut the fuck up! from those of us who might otherwise agree with them.
Name an argument, and they have one.
Why, Trump doesnt know anything about foreign policy! they mewl. As though any President ever knew what the hell was really going on until they were given their first brief. And as though Trump wouldnt surround himself with the best of the best like any competent executive from day one.
Trump will get creamed by Hillary! Except for the fact that Trump has put together exactly the sort of moderate, independent and center-right coalition every right-leaning talking head has been screaming about the need for since before Romney got his ass handed to him.
And on and on, ever into more increasing minutiae. That nonsense is what did it for me, as ultimately, a vote for Trump is a large middle finger to those people, as much as to the leftist asswits who have been destroying the country and sucking the productivity out of people like me for decades.

Rainy day ponderance.
One of these days I'm going to have to actually write about this empire of dirt I've been building over the last nearly-a-decade. 'course, that would require free time not already scheduled for scotch and/or naked women.
Until then, I'll just leave this here.

Dear Apple: OS X El Capitan
So far, 10.11 has a lot of little glue items I rather like. Even stupid little stuff like the new password cursor in terminal. There are, however, a few things I really do not like. So, bitch mode on:
1) When I have to disable System Integrity Protection to change the fucking horrid mail.app icon, System Integrity Protection is stupid.
2) If the new version of the aforementioned mail.app is going to require a six hour rebuild of my mail accounts, maybe fucking warn me beforehand?
3) While I realize the majority of iCloud users happily spew all of their iCloud-enabled information into said iCloud, I do not. Stop trying to trick me into doing so. Seriously, stop, or I'll just pull the iCloud plug all together. I barely tolerate iCloud mail as it is, and this continued fumbuckary is eroding said tolerance.
4) While I realize you guys hate Java nearly as much as Flash, some of us have to use it to pay for your shiny hardware. So maybe tell us when you're going to nuke and pave one's Java environment with an OS upgrade.

On Assholes.
It's not every day I agree with Piers Morgan on something. In fact, this is the first day. Ever.
Mogran opines on a recent transgression in Africa, in which a generally useless piece of shit named Dr. Walter Palmer, a dentist in Minnesota, thought it would be nifty to pay another bunch of useless pieces of shit $50,000 for the privilege of luring a lion out of a game preserve in Zimbabwe so he could kill it. Some people, who are also useless pieces of shit, call this "hunting".
It isn't.
I've been a hunter since I was judged old enough by my father to carry a rifle through the woods. I've hunted deer, moose, game birds, all manner of animals the like of which there are lots and lots of, to the point that their populations tend to explode without said hunting. I shot those animals because they taste good, and felt absolutely no remorse or concern for having done so. I took them home, cleaned them, and made a lovely barbecue that myself and many friends enjoyed over the years.
What I did not do, however, is mount any part of their anatomy to a plaque so I could display it to my buddies and attempt to convince them of my skill as a hunter, bravado, or penis size. Because doing that, in the opinion of this hunter of some 30 years, is fucking pathetic.
But what a certain Dr. Palmer did was not just pathetic, it was also illegal. It wasn't enough for him to travel to Africa and kill a species that is one step removed from being endangered. No, while there is a by all accounts thriving business in much of Africa known as canned hunting, wherein apex predators are raised specifically to be tied to a tree somewhere and shot by idiots so they have something to hang on their wall, this just wasn't challenging enough for Walter Palmer. He had to shoot a wild lion, of which there are around 20,000 left alive in the world.
In order to accomplish that, he paid a couple criminals to tote him out into the bush, lure a lion out of a game reserve with a dead animal, and killed it. Not cleanly, of course, as one can only assume it was more fun to wound this lion, and let it suffer for nearly two days, before having someone shoot it dead for him. At which point the interesting parts were cut off for Dr. Palmer's trophy case, and the rest left to rot in the bush.
Walter Palmer, you are an unspeakable piece of shit. As a hunter, a sportsman, and a human fucking being, you nauseate me. If there is any justice in the world, your despicable act will result in the loss of your livelihood, your friends, your family, and anyone on the "happy smile" side of being willing to piss on you after finding you burning in a ditch after a car wreck, you pathetic bastard.
In closing: Fuck you; you vile, ugly, pathetic little man.

The future belongs to me.
Along with everyone else who's over the age of 30 or so and wasn't raised in the ever encompassing nanny hell we now call home.
To wit:
Raise your hand if you survived a childhood in the 60s, 70s, and 80s that included one or more of the following, frowned-upon activities (raise both hands if you bear a scar proving your daredevil participation in these dare-devilish events):
1. Riding in the back of an open pick-up truck with a bunch of other kids
2. Leaving the house after breakfast and not returning until the streetlights came on, at which point, you raced home, ASAP so you didnt get in trouble
3. Eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in the school cafeteria
4. Riding your bike without a helmet
5. Riding your bike with a buddy on the handlebars, and neither of you wearing helmets
6. Drinking water from the hose in the yard
7. Swimming in creeks, rivers, ponds, and lakes (or what they now call *cough* wild swimming)
8. Climbing trees (One park cut the lower branches from a tree on the playground in case some stalwart child dared to climb them)
9. Having snowball fights (and accidentally hitting someone you shouldnt)
10. Sledding without enough protective equipment to play a game in the NFL
11. Carrying a pocket knife to school (or having a fishing tackle box with sharp things on school property)
12. Camping
13. Throwing rocks at snakes in the river
14. Playing politically incorrect games like Cowboys and Indians
15. Playing Cops and Robbers with *gasp* toy guns
16. Pretending to shoot each other with sticks we imagined were guns
17. Shooting an actual gun or a bow (with *gasp* sharp arrows) at a can on a log, accompanied by our parents who gave us pointers to improve our aim. Heck, there was even a marksmanship club at my high school
18. Saying the words gun or bang or pow pow (there actually a freakin CODE about playing with invisible guns)
19. Working for your pocket money well before your teen years
20. Taking that money to the store and buying as much penny candy as you could afford, then eating it in one sitting
21. Eating pop rocks candy and drinking soda, just to prove we were exempt from that urban legend that said our stomachs would explode
22. Getting so dirty that your mom washed you off with the hose in the yard before letting you come into the house to have a shower
23. Writing lines for being a jerk at school, either on the board or on paper
24. Playing dangerous games like dodgeball, kickball, tag, whiffle ball, and red rover (The Health Department of New York issued a warning about the significant risk of injury from these games)
25. Walking to school alone
The way of the future.
Remember, kids. Self-driving cars are what we need.

Nanostructured photocatalysts for green chemistry and sustainable catalysis
Nanoscale materials with precise structure and composition offer unique opportunities in the development of catalytic processes for green and sustainable chemistry. Following a long tradition of successful undergraduate researchers and summer interns in our lab, SULI students in the Vela group will apply principles of nanomaterial synthesis, green chemistry, and catalysis to investigate photochemical transformations of renewable and alternative energy sources, with an emphasis on carbon dioxide (CO2) and biomass-relevant substrates.
The Vela group focuses on the design of distinct, powerful and widely applicable synthetic strategies spanning the continuum between the molecular and nano scales, and that enable effective processing and incorporation of nanomaterials into innovative energy conversion and catalytic technologies.[1-4] We are particularly interested in the use of hybrid heterostructured nanocomposites as photocatalysts for the selective solar-to-chemical energy conversion of biomass-derived substrates (polyols) into useful chemicals (biopolymers) and fuels (molecular hydrogen).[5]
The specific project that an SULI student in our lab will work on is the investigation and development of a mechanism by which nanoscale heterostructured photocatalysts can be coupled in tandem with soluble organometallic catalysts in order to do cascade reactions (biomass to feedstock). This research will allow the SULI student to learn and develop advanced concepts and techniques in sustainable chemistry and nanomaterials.

I was shocked to come across this post on the JMTC forums about accounts getting suspended for trading gold! Poor guy was minding his own business and buying amazingly cheap goods (10% PCT) from someone apparently clearing their bank. Well the deal was not as innocent as it seemed because the suspended player eventually found out that the account he was trading with was a hacked account, and that was why he was getting such great deals! What made matters worse is that he traded some gold not long after that to other characters on his account, which just doesn't look good in blizzard's eyes. I hope everything has worked out and that he has his account back, but it is an important lesson for those of you buying and selling on trade chat.
So what is the lesson which you should learn from this? When it comes to current game high end materials (such as abyss crystals), do not buy them by the thousands for less than 60% PCT! Now I normally don't shy away from any deal, but anytime someone is selling at that bulk amount they are either a complete fool, a guild leader looking for vengeance on his guild mates, or a hacker. There are plenty of other ways to make gold in this game that you don't need to participate in those kinds of methods. Be wary, play smart, and most importantly have fun :)

Hi Marcko. Just finished reading your blogg from day one. What a read! Without doubt the best blogg on goldmaking and AH.
But, regarding the above citation. You're not saying we shouldn't buy up "blue"-PCT items (in moderate loads) by fear of being accused of fencing? I mostly bid on blues. But how about you? Do you only stick to greens over 60 PCT?

This happened to me last month actually at the worst possible time... patch day!
I'm certain that any major AH player has bought stuff from a stolen acct at least once weather they knew it or not, sometimes they do speak fluent English after all.
Luckily it only took 45 minutes (including time on hold) after I dialed their number to get my acct fully restored. So unless you're actually doing something taboo there's not much to worry about other than a minor annoyance.

You don't get banned for trading gold between characters of the same account/same account information.
He posted it online, he was more than likely doing something he shouldn't have been doing and made it not look that way in order to gain sympathy from the forums.

"he traded some gold not long after that to other characters on his account"
How can you trade gold to other characters in your account? I mean, you can send gold but not trade it since you can log on one character at once, we are talking about one account, aren't we?
Also sometimes I send 3-5k gold to my alts for mounds or just buying mats, I wonder if I could get suspended

Flaettir, I am talking about a very rare instance where someone is selling thousands of items for extreme values, perhaps 60% is actually too high. I should of said 1-20%.
That's so cool you read the whole blog! :D
The said... April 22, 2010 at 5:40 PM
I have to disagree with you on this, Markco. If someone is selling items at really low prices, indeed, even giving them away, there shouldn't be any problem with me acquiring them. I shouldn't have to raise my prices just because I question the origin of the items.
Of course, my argument assumes there is no foul play at hand. So long as the buyer has no knowledge of any shady dealings, buy away!

This happened to the editor of srsbusiness.org (a great blog btw, good writing, good format)
He posted the whole story of buying from a lvl 1 who had goods from a hacked account, and how he was banned for 3 days while blizz looked into the matter.

@The: It's a difficult situation. Ever heard of "good faith" in law? If for example someone has stolen a car and sells it to you, you can say that you bought it in good faith and won't get punished. If however the seller implicitly (or otherwise) states that the car has been stolen, and you still buy it - then you're at fault.
I think Blizzard does the right thing if they ban a player for buying a copious amount of materials for *way* below market price. The buyer should know something's wrong, and that it's not okay to buy things from a hacked account or bot.
Honestly, I'm quite surprised at what some goldgurus do. They think it's okay to actively contact a professional farmer in order to get cheap mats, even though they're supporting gold selling by doing so. Giants such as Wingman, Zamboni and Kraklin have explicitly stated that they know they're dealing with professional farmers and they still continue to buy from them. Moral degenerates? :P

I just got a 72 hour ban this morning, possibly for this very reason. I bought a bunch of stuff last night from a level 1 in Stormwind. Ugh.
Satyr said... April 23, 2010 at 1:56 AM
Where I live (Netherlands) you are supposed to know you are buying 'stolen' good. To make it even worse, if you get caught buying stolen goods you are in even bigger problems than the original thief!
I guess something like that also applies to this matter, as sad as it may be..
Guava said... April 23, 2010 at 4:00 AM
your views on this topic are really interesting and give a clear cut view. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!
I've noticed this happening a lot lately - my primary business is JC, so I watch for deals there and often late at night I'll see things like "20 cardinal rubies, 90g each" (when the AH price is about 140). While you mention several possibilities, the most likely candidate in my mind is that the account was hacked. I think it's a bit of a gray area, but in general, buying from them doesn't cause permanent harm to the hacked since Blizz will get them their stuff back.
The only problem I have with it (buying from hackers) is that it encourages hackers to hack. Not so easy to resolve, after all.
Whitewolf said... May 18, 2010 at 9:28 AM
A few points in no particular order...
Transferring gold to your own alts isn't a problem. I often move amounts of 50k-100k between my alts. (When I'm not swimming in it like Scrooge McDuck.)
The one time I got a ban(that was recinded) was the 30 minutes after I hit 1 million and gave a friend 10k to buy a Kirin Tor ring. They never did clarify which of those two things raised a flag.
I buy cheap gems (80-90g) while the ah postings are in the 150-170g range everyday. Most are from PvPers and Alchies who want quick cash and no ah posting fees or delays.
NOT buying cheap goods advertised in trade will not UNhack a hacked account. These are virtual goods that are easily replaced. If Blizz goes to the trouble of tracking down every missing item off a hacked account, they're doing it to discover the scope of a hacking group. They have no need to do it to restore the items to the rightful owner.
As for setting up relationships with herb and ore suppliers, its not against the ToS for any player to earn and accumulate gold. Yes, that includes the "asian farmers". The transgression occurs when they sell the gold for real world money. Farming herbs and ores is probably the most legitimate activity these guys do in game.

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Bread on Market Restaurant Review: For several years one certain Hillcrest bakery has dominated the San Diego bread scene, but now we have a true challenger to this incumbent---Bread on Market. We like these loaves (challah, potato-dill, raisin-walnut, rosemary boule, olive baton and more). Owned by Valerie Grover, this café serves sandwiches, soups, salads and sweets. We can't get enough of the focaccia bread---her own version of the Italian classic. It's baked with rosemary and olive oil with a moist, tender crumb. And Bread on Market's proximity to Petco Park makes it the perfect spot to pick up food for the game. Comfort foods like house-made lasagna, turkey meatloaf and flaky-crusted chicken potpie make up the home-style dinner menu, good for an early dinner or take-out.

Throughout modern time, management philosophies about employees have gone from equating them to cogs in a wheel to zen-seeking members of the family. Those philosophies and all the ones toward the middle of the spectrum have had their moments in the sun and become the center of big institutes and trainings. Soon or not so soon after the training a new philosophy would take over or the managers would fall in to their old, natural patterns of management – good or bad.
Strangely an employee was rarely given the specific information that the manager had traded one philosophy from another. Wasn't that hard for an employee to go from being a cog to relative overnight? How many employees didn't make that transition well and were left to flounder under the new regime? How much potential for connection and growth were lost because things were assumed about the needs and wants of the employee and their understanding of the new philosophies.
As we reflect on those questions and the goals of the philosophies themselves, we arrived at a conclusion. The core issues for both managers and employees are the same so the philosophy should apply to both. The first issue is how do I maximize my profit potential (for the employee that comes in the package of a paycheck)? Second, how do I achieve high profits while reflecting my values and daily happiness needs (for an employer that may mean working with people who aren't trying to run them over with their car on the way out of the parking lot)? For each of us the priority of each issue and how they manifest themselves in our lives at certain periods fluctuates. For example, when I first graduated I cared a lot about the first issue and didn't give much thought to issue two. Slowly I learned that if I didn't have passion for my work and a sense of giving to a larger common good, the money never filled me up so the second issue gained importance and evolved.
As a manager, my prioritization of the two issues was constantly in flux depending on how invested I was in my employees and the pressure I was getting from my managers. If an employee drove me nuts and didn't seem engaged, I relied heavily on how they were helping me to achieve profit goals and if the profits weren't connected to their contributions, their time with my company was limited.
If these issues are as universal as we assume, then we all become human capital and, potentially, managers of human capital. The concept of human capital is an old economic term. Human capital is a term identifying people as a source of profits and other useful results in the context of industry. The term is generally used in the context of how a company looked at its people, but it is also helpful as a term we can use for ourselves. In fact, it may be critical to make this philosophical change.
First, by seeing our careers as an application of our human capital potential, we take some emotion out of decisions. For example, it is less of a stretch for me to ask for a raise when I see the issue as one of human capital potential rather than popularity or a reflection of self worth. Negotiating compensation also becomes easier. Second, developing career goals and a plan for long-term growth or investing in training becomes more of a structured management of our potential. In fact, it would be considered squandering our potential to not make those investments in our future.
Under the theory of human capital the second concern of reflecting our values and daily happiness needs does not fade away. That is also part of the equation. As human capital, my value in the market consists of more than just money. Am I more valuable human capital if I fill a need for my community? Yes! Do I extend my usefulness and increase my potential value if I stay healthy and happy because I am doing things that make me feel good? Yes! As human capital, when I take on more training and development opportunities that enrich me immediately, do I also deepen my human capital value for the long-term? Yes!
So, how does the concept of human capital apply to your daily life? As a manager, consider if your employees are fulfilling their human capital potential in their current role. If they aren't, work with them to figure out how to make them more of a profit factor. Are they in the wrong position? Do they need more training? Do they feel they have the autonomy to suggest or implement changes that save or make the company more money? Is the employee thriving in the environment so they are free to do their best work? Is the employee ignoring their individual development and personal needs because of too much work and they are at risk of burning out? Working to answer those questions and invest time with the employee to maximize their potential is a good use of your time and skill. Remembering that your goal is to maximize the value of human capital to ensure company profits will help you, your company, and your employees see greater success.
As an individual, seeing yourself, your goals and your actions in light of your role as human capital can help you make smarter decisions. It can also help you to invest more time in planning. Finally, it can take the emotional component out of some decisions and allow you more courage to ask for what you, as valued human capital, deserve.

College Hockey:River Hawks Keep Minutemen At Bay
UML Victory Holds Off HEA Playoff Spot For UMass
AMHERST, Mass. — Although the Alumni Cup had already been clinched with a weekend sweep by Massachusetts earlier in the year, UMass-Lowell got some sweet redemption by keeping its brother school from clinching a Hockey East playoff spot with a 3-2 victory.
"Desperate times take desperate measures," Lowell coach Blaise MacDonald said. "I don't have an adjective to describe how good it feels. You want your players to get what they deserve. We've been very pleased with them in practice."
Freshman Ben Walter got the game winner at 12:17 of the third period when he pounded home a rebound from in close.
Mark Concannon wrapped around the net for a point-blank shot that was saved by Gabe Winer, but Walter was opportunistic in poking home the weak-side rebound.
After sitting for the final 7:24 of the second period, freshman goalie Dominic Smart returned for the third period to halt a UMass surge.
"I thought he played great," MacDonald said. "You look at their two goals and one was right off the inside post and the other was a perfectly placed shot."
Smart was instrumental in stifling a Minutemen power play 10 minutes before Walter got the winner.
He stopped Stephen Werner on a wrist shot from just inside the faceoff circle and he made a glove save on a screened Sean Regan point shot.
The freshman made seven stops in the third period and 17 overall for his fifth win of the season.
Winer, on the other hand, had his second consecutive solid game but was a victim of a defense that collapsed around him.
"We're not skating away from the puck like we're capable," UMass coach Don Cahoon said. "We started giving up ice and we didn't maintain lane control."
UMass took a 2-1 lead at 3:54 of the second when Josh Hanson postmarked a slapshot for the left post. Jeff Lang sprang Hanson into the zone and he did the rest, beating Smart from the right faceoff circle.
Following the goal the Minutemen picked up their play, which led to the first power play of the game.
UMass had a trio of good looks from the point with Marvin Degon providing a pair of one-timers and Thomas Pock supplying a slapshot of his own. But Smart fought through traffic in front to make the saves.
With 7:24 remaining in the period Smart was pulled in favor of backup Chris Davidson. The sophomore made only two saves but it seemed to spark the River Hawk offense.
"Dominic Smart had really pulled his groin," MacDonald said. "We had to do it for health reasons."
A pair of good shifts led to a James Solon hooking penalty and Ed McGrane scored on the first shot of the man advantage.
Concannon fed McGrane all alone at the right point and he wound up and beat Winer through a screen to tie the game at 2.
With both teams coming off losses the first period was not a smooth 20 minutes of hockey. Most of the play was of the chippy variety and in the neutral zone.
Lowell opened the scoring at 6:06 of the period. Steve Slonina slid a blind backhand pass from behind the net to Elias Godoy in the slot. The freshman then slid a wrist shot inside the left post for a 1-0 lead.
UMass answered just over four minutes later when Greg Mauldin scored his 16th goal of the year.
Mauldin took a pass from Stephen Werner in the neutral zone and sped past Josh Reed on the left wing. Mauldin cut back and let Reed go by him before lifting a wrist shot over Smart's left shoulder.

Fans of L.A. hip-hop crew Jurassic 5 probably didn't realize the group was celebrating their 20th anniversary on their current tour across the states. The fact the original sextet was reuniting for the first time since splitting in 2007 was the only reason needed to party for the group's return.
Salt Lake City has always seemed to have an affinity for the group. During the original run of the band from the late '90s into the mid-'00s, the collective made up of rappers Chali 2Na, Akil, Zaakir and Marc 7 and DJs Cut Chemist and Nu Mark played to progressively bigger audiences here in Zion, moving from Warped Tour daytime sets on small stages to clubs and then theaters like Kingsbury Hall.
The room they played at The Complex Tuesday night might be the biggest they've done yet in SLC, and they needed every inch of the space for the folks nearly filling the place for the Word of Mouth tour that also featured Dilated Peoples, Beat Junkies and MC Supernatural--a rerun of sort of a 2000 tour that also stopped in Utah.
The energy of the fans Tuesday was undeniable, but the cavernous space didn't do the sound any favors. A major appeal of Jurassic 5 is the vocal interplay between the four rappers, including some honest-to-God harmonizing rarely heard in their peers, but much of the vocal dexterity on display on stage was lost in the sound mix.
That was definitely a bummer, but the fans knew the words to old favorites like "After School Special," "Quality Control" and "I Am Somebody," and they chanted along in unison with the men on stage while they waved their arms and bobbed their heads to the beats dropped by Cut Chemist and Nu Mark.
As always, the two world-class turntablists were given ample opportunity to show off their skills in building some crazy sounds out of all manner of equipment. "Desk (Hip Hop History)" featured Nu Mark turning an old high school desk into a live instrument, pounding out beats on the wired metal-and-wood chair. Later, the two strapped turntables around their necks like they were guitars for a musical duel at center stage while the rappers took a break, before turning the seemingly decorative giant J5 record on stage into a massive working turntable useful for scratching.
Chali 2Na gave the Utah audience props for the enthusiasm, and it was a constant as Jurassic 5 ripped through a slew of songs, moving from one to the next quickly and rarely taking a breath between. "Concrete Schoolyard," "High Fidelity," "Freedom" and "The Influence" were all highlights, despite the booming sound often washing out the rappers' lyrics.
It was a good time despite the audio issues, and hopefully the reunion is an ongoing project for the members of Jurassic 5. I, for one, would love the chance to see them again in a venue where the sound can match the skills on stage.
