Hi All
I can't believe I had to search all the way to page six to find the model 39 club.
Have been having trouble with the last round feeding practically since I acquired Sweet Lips. I think I finally may have found the culprit. The part that feeds the cart. must be carefully centered when you tighten the screw on the left side. If it is not centered it will bind and not feed the last one or two cart's. Before that the feeder spring apparently has enough tension to overcome it. So don't just tighten that screw as a routine check. My nichol's worth.

Hello All,
I'm new to the 39A Club... hope to learn how to outfit and take care of my newest rifle addition. My first upgrade will be a sling. Suggestions appreciated.
After doing alot of reading and seaching and comparing I decided to buy a Marlin.
My first hunting rifle was a Marlin 336 (35 Remington Caliber), given to me from my Dad. I've always loved this gun but the ammo cost is now crazy ($2.50 per round). The 39A has a very similar feel to my 336.
I bought my 39A yesterday at Cabela's for $480 but got a $150 gift card in the deal so I guess it cost me $330. I've been planning to buy one for some time but the price tag kept me from doing it until yesterday. Just couldn't pass up that deal!
I also saw a Marlin 39A .22 in Cabela's Gun Library yesterday for $16,999.99, I guess these rifles tend to keep their value!!!

I'm going to suggest a Turner sling. All premium leather, top quality, in other words a perfect match for a Marlin 39A. Go to: www.turnersling.com. However, the web simply can't match the experience of reality. I have several of them & have no problem recommending them to others.

"Squirrel rifles" are generally 39 ADLs from the early 60s. Not often seen. Here is a link to a short discussion on these rifles from the Marlin Collector's site:
Hope it helps,

Pulled my 77 Golden 39A out this afternoon. Remounted the scope and sighted it in for 2" high at 40 yards with CCI Stingers (odd numbers but it's what I had to work with today). Don't know why I posted this mundane activity but the thing runs like clockwork, gotta love it.

Thanks for the recommendation & link. I'm looking at their slings right now.

Hello all, I have had a Marlin 336 R.C. since I bought it new in 1968, but never thought much about a lever action .22. I've had bolt actions, semi-autos and at one time was seriously looking to buy a pump. Then a couple months ago I ran across this website.
After reading many threads about the .336, I noticed the 39A club. The more I read, the more intrigued I became. Then I started looking for a Marlin model 39A. The problem was, I really preferred the older ones without the checkering and the cross bolt safety. I found a new one at Gander Mountain, and a new one at one of the local gun stores, but not what I was looking for. Then one day a couple weeks ago, A friend asked me if I wanted to spend some time going to pawn shops. He was looking for a guitar and I would look for a model 39A. The last shop we went to, there it was. A 1964 Marlin 39A in at least 95%. With it came a leather sling, and a 4X Simmons scope for $400. It is now sitting in my gun vault. I don't know if it was a good deal or not, but I am pleased with it.
Okay, now I have a Marlin model 336 R.C. that I love, and a Marlin model 39A that I finally found. I have been lurking on this site for quite some time. It is time I join THR as well as the 336 club and the 39A club. There are so many fine people on here with so much knowledge, how can I go wrong. I am thoroughly hooked on these lever actions.

Hey guys! I just recently rode out hurricane Ike.
Fortunately for me,my family, my house, my cars, and my guns all survived without damage.
We went six days with no lights, no internet, no cable TV, no telephones, no cell phones, and no idea when it would get better.
We've got it all cleaned up now, and we're very fortunate. Lots of folks can't wash off the damage this storm left behind.
I'm ready to get out and do some shooting!

Stopping in after ten brutal days at work
(on the heals of 365 others.
Last day off was now officially 1 year, 3 months ago.
It's what I get for starting my own business.
It's starting to pay off though, in spades.)
Still, very much missing my time in this thread.
So cool to see new members (welcome, Jerry),
glad to read that Frank survived Ike,
and that the 39 is still alive and kicking
(with the help of an enthusiastic admin ).
9, .22, .30-30, blades & sticks. Fun.

Well, effective today, I join the ranks of Marlin 39A owners. I have admired the 39 since 1990, when I first fired one owned by a friend of mine. Of course, it was always easier to justify buying, other less costly .22s. The problem was, none of the other .22s that I own(ed) ever presented that "adult-heft" we so frequently associate with centerfire long guns.
So, some months back, I set my resolve literally to save my pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters in emptied coffee jars and to buy a 39A. About 6 weeks back, I finally had enough "coin" saved to buy a 39A. Problem that presented next was locating one. For the past month or so, I have called every local firearms establishment just about weekly, in an attempt to locate a new 39A, heck, even a nice used one. Seems when folks buy a 39A, they hang on to them.
Well, the sales persons kept telling me that they could order one, and when I inquired, they told me all of the suppliers were backordered, 3 to potentially 6 months?! Holy cow! That means I likely wouldn't be able to use it for small game season. That didn't seem fun, but seemed the price I was going to pay to get my 39A...you know, that whole "the early bird", well, I was the late bird. As I picked up the phone to call back to the dealer and have them order up a 39A for me, I thought, I'm going to try one last call to Gander Mountain in Utica. OMW, they had a 39A on the rack...one, and only one.
So, I gave the salesman my name and assured him I would be there directly to take ownership of that little gem. An hour later, I was walking out the door with my Marlin 39A, and a dandy new sling for it to boot. When I got home, I unboxed it, cleaned and oiled it, put the sling and shouldered it for the first time to fire some Aguila Colibri in my 20-yard indoor range. It didn't feel like I recalled some 18 years back when I last shouldered one. It felt better, because this one is mine.
I loaded up 23 rounds of Aguila Colibri (1 in the chamber and 22 in the tube), and tried it out. She printed a nice little cluster of about 1" at 20 yards, but that was of course that was seated, unsupported and using iron sights. To say the least, I was thrilled with the feel and the function. The accuracy was as good, and truthfully even better than I could possibly have expected for that type of ammo. So, now I have my 39A, my small game license and ammo.
The sole decision I have to make now is to take this sweet little 39 hunting with iron sights, or to mount a nice little scope on her. Anyhow, I just thought I would post here and thank all of the folks who have taken the time to make posts and upload pictures. All of the posts and pictures here really reinforced my desire to purchase my own 39. I'll be sure to make my own additions of posts and pictures here as I put her to use, at the range and in the field.
Here's her pic:

I am in the Marlin 39A Club now too.
Woo hoo! My other lever action rifles have a new sister today! Grin.
The new rifle came in on a special order from our local gun store.
She is a SWEET looking gun and I am very happy. I hope to shoot her this Sunday and Monday.
I have always been pleased with my lever action rifles in any make, caliber and especially in 22LR. My husband loves his too!
The men who run my local store are absolutely GREAT! We have bought several items from them and will continue to do so.
Here is the name and information of my LOCAL store:
2100 Stephens Avenue
Missoula, MT
Office: 406- 549-8177
It is a great store to do business with, if they don't have it in stock, they will order it for you, if you want something unusual or older - they are @ gun shows and they do consignments too.
Thank you, gentlemen, and you run a GOOD shop! My husband told me to thank you again too!

WELCOME Doc, Catherine and Winchester243 to the Marlin 39 club of enablers! Fine intros all. More evidence that these excellent rifles attract excellent folks.
Be sure to post your observations, exploits, adventures and experiences with your 39's. You'll find there are a good many of us that can't imagine life without out a 39 and love to talk about them, hear about them and shoot them.
If you get the chance join the monthly rimfire match. So far this month we're sadly under represented.

Make mine Marlin
I scoped my 77 Golden 39A because for those real satisfying slow one shot hits my eyes aren't so good with irons . The 60 under it is my closer range varmit plinker and the .357 1894c above it is an alternative to the 870 for HD .......and just frigging riot at playtime!

I had fun with my 39A this morning. I have my BSA Sweet .22 set to swap across all of my .22LRs. So, I took it and mounted it to my 39A, and loaded up some Aguila Colibri. I took it to my basement range and tried her out at 20 yards. Seated and using a sling, it prints a nice, tight little clutser, all shots touching. Wow! Just wow! It feels like an adult rifle, not a toy!
<<Sniff>> It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. This rifle is going to prove to expensive! I've already gone through over 500 rounds of Aguila Colibri with it! Everytime I get bored, I pull out my 39A and fill my empty time with meaningful me-time. I feel as-happy-as the birthday when I got my first lever-action BB gun.

Doc, Catherine and Winchester, welcome in!
Great to see three new members in one week.
Winchester, gotta agree, that Nikon prostaff rimfire is the way to go if you're gonna scope it (which I did).
Wow, you all are making me jealous that you're getting to shoot yours. I hope to get a day off in the next few months to take mine out.

It is a Marlin 39A and a Ruger week for us here!
Thanks to all of you!
I got another SWEET Ruger super single action revolver today too.
It is a 22LR/22WMR, 6.5 inch barrel, blued, adjustable site like my other one that has wood grips only this one has those black grips. Very nice.
We got it from the same local store here in town too.

Another Marlin and Ruger addict here. I'm up to 4 Marlins (5 if you count one I got my son) and ummm 8 Rugers.
Catherine my daughter is a Griz so I might have to do some window shopping at your local store next time I'm in town visiting my daughter. However I like you have a great local shop, If he doesn't have it in stock, he can get it and he's always reasonable if not downright about the cheapest price I can find.

Published on
prepared in collaboration with A.T. Kearney, addresses the key trust challenges facing the personal data economy, and offers a set of near-term and long-term insights for addressing these issues. The insights in this report are the product of a multi-year global dialogue on new approaches for creating a balanced and sustainable personal data economy that serves the interests of individuals while maintaining flexibility for innovation. The community contributing to this dialogue is comprised of actors from government, academia, civil society, and the private sector.
The report highlights three inter-related challenges that must be addressed in order to strengthen trust:
Transparency: notions of transparency need to move from a focus on disclosure, which often has the negative consequence of overwhelming individuals, to an emphasis on providing individuals with insight and meaningful control
Accountability: current data governance systems place the greatest burdens of risk and responsibility with individuals; in order to be more accountable risks need to be equally distributed throughout the value chain
Empowerment: shared incentives for empowering individuals and more equitably distributing value are needed to move past existing information differentials that benefit a concentrated set of actors
To address these challenges, the report proposes a series of near-term and long-term actions:
Promote shared taxonomies on the various types, origins, and uses of data: establishing a common language for data types and data usage is a critical first step toward building transparent, efficient and effective systems that are interoperable across industries and geographies. This is especially true in light of the rising proportions of data that is observed or inferred, rather than volunteered at the point of collection. Policies need to account for the fact that as a result of this complexity, individuals will not have full visibility in the traditional sense into all the data that is generated about them.
Assess data usage on the basis of impact: shifting the focus of data governance to the impact, positive or negative, that data usage has for individuals is a pragmatic step towards increasing accountability. Approaches based on risk management are a more straightforward way for organizations to prioritize actions that mitigate potential harms arising from data use, and allow the focus of these activities to shift to the protection of individuals.
Stimulate technological and business innovations in smart data: Technology must be viewed as a key enabler for driving scale and efficiency. In particular, innovations in the space of smart data allow for the creation of context-aware data management systems in which the permissions and provenance associated with personal data flow through the value chain.

On the Persecution of the Assyrian Christians
What shamed me was knowing that, for the third time in my lifetime, my government was turning a blind eye to genocide.
On Valorizing Gay Marriage: A Response to Wesley Hill
A better approach is for us to caution as brothers and sisters in the Lord: We appreciate your faithfulness to Christ in abstaining from sexual immorality and your service of the church through your writings. Yet we are concerned that elements of an un-renewed, fleshly mentality permeate some of your thinking about "gay coupling."
The Episcopal Church: Undermining the USA from Within (and Betraying Christians)
The Episcopal Church is complicit in a Government program to bring in Muslim refugees from Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria, because the Government pays it for them—but its largesse does not extend to Christian refugees.
[Bumped] Promises, Promises: What Now for the Loyal Opposition in Mississippi?
The Episcopal Diocese of Mississippi is on an irreversible path toward full-on celebration and normalization of homosexuality and transgenderism, and any other deviant sexual cause that becomes fashionable among the theological leftists who run the diocese.
Can Rolling Stone get us past the UVA rape of faith to the historical UVA rape?
I harp on Rolling Stone's UVA rape myth because the irony of an Easter retraction is just too rich. Journalists used the Christian celebration, one they flippantly discount as myth, as cover for their own lying. But it's just one example.
The Drunken Joy Ride of Emotion
Our desires and emotions are to be treated with extreme skepticism. Do not lead with them. I am not at all saying "don't feel them" or "all emotional experience is bad." Not at all. This is not Vulcan Christianity or stoicism.
Islamic Atrocities, the "Narrative of Redemption" and Christmas
The events in Sydney over the last 24 hours have not ruined Christmas. Nothing can ruin Christmas - for the coming of Jesus into the World is greater than any other event. If anything, the deaths of 3 people in the Lindt Café only serves to demonstrate just how wonderful and necessary Christmas is.
[Bumped For Very Obvious Reasons] 8.5 Things I Rejoice In This Post-Election Day
5) This isn't the Episcopal Church. Our country is far juster, far more interested in the rule of law, far more stable, far more popular, far less vicious, and far more conservative. It is completely within our power as conservatives—with God's help—to transform this country's political landscape if we so choose. It will be very hard and very long. The next two years will be appallingly painful. Every week or month, we'll be reminded of the judgement of God—and our challenge will be not to get angry, or despairing, or inactive, but rather to humble ourselves all over again, repent, acknowledge the horrible consequences of our compromises, corruption, passivity, and loss of principle, and continue turning away from the wrong path and seeking the right one.
Restarting the Game: Archbishop Welby Attempts To Hit The Reset Button
It's not a question of "how will the Communion divide"—that division, albeit internal, has already occurred. The further question is not "how can we all live together in the midst of our profound disagreements" but is rather "what is to be done with the Provinces which have engaged in intrinsically communion-dividing actions?"
Got Ice Water?
The idea that we shouldn't be able to indulge in something silly like the ice-water challenge because millions of African children are dying of thirst, says nothing about the wastefulness of Americans, and everything about the utter inability of Africa to take care of itself.
The utilitarian unity of burning at the stake and abortion
The Church thought it was sparing heretics eternal torment by burning them at the stake. Abortionists tell us they are sparing people from miserable earthly lives. Both ways, "It's for their own good."
Truro Rebirth Credited to Relationship Between the Rev. Baucum and Bishop Johnston
After more than ten years on the front lines of the Anglican wars, I have made a major change. This past Easter vigil, my family and I were confirmed in the Roman Catholic Church.
Is the Creed "the" Sufficient Standard of Orthodoxy?
The Creeds themselves, then, require obedience to Jesus Christ as the One Lord over all things. To profess the Creed but reject the word of God as revealed in the scriptures regarding marriage and sexuality is incoherent.
Stand Firm is 10 Years Old Today
In true Tom Sawyer fence-whitewashing style, I have minions who keep the site humming, while I sit in the shade chewing a blade of grass and complimenting them on their fine efforts.
Three Excuses for Bishop Salmon's Inexcusable Invitation
Can you imagine what Paul might say to this kind of hair splitting? The Galatians respond to Paul's letter: "Dear Paul, you wrote that the Judaizers are accursed and eternally condemned and that we ought not to listen to them because they teach a gospel that damns…but how about we let them preach to our pastors in training?
60 Theses on Real Integrity in the Anglican Church
The refusal to affirm a truth (particularly when it is a truth about God) is often just another way of denying it, but without taking responsibility for your denial. This is therefore a double dishonesty which only compounds the deceit.

Yankee, I sure do appreciate your response. I may be new to this forum, but new to forums, period? Try again. Let me let you know, I'm originally from Annapolis, and my parents are from Salisbury and Snow Hill. I went to Ocean City every summer of my childhood, and I'm going
\n to clue you in on a few facts, assuming you're literate enough to sound them out. First, no one in the entire rest of the world refers to the armpit of backwoods waste of land mass east of the Kent Narrows bridge as Delmarva. Second, it must be nice to sit at your keyboard surfing a forum for a location on the opposite side of the nation "pwning n00b5" about how pathetic they are while stroking your raging erection while looking at your senior member status. Third, if your sister read half the crap you posted on this forum, you'd be served by her divorce lawyer so fast your Mossy Oak trucker cap would spin. Why don't you stop wasting your time being a wannabe and do what the rest of the toothless Eastern Shore hicks are doing and rustle up some more chicken necks, fix the holes in your crab pots and continue being irrelevant like you know you should be. I was under the impression that surfers were laid back, and more or less accepting of someone humble enough to ask for a little direction. I guess I was wrong, and this post could very well be my last, but thank you all the same. In closing, any Marylander who is so unaware of the location of the Mason-Dixon Line, as well as the fact that the word "Yankee" in that state can get you thrown from the upper reaches of Camden Yards deserves what he gets, and sir, you have gotten just a little of what you deserve here. Crawl in a hole and die.

\nJason, are you sitting at your keyboard with your hockey mask on again tonight...? It's only Tuesday, Jason. Tsk, tsk....you're not permitted to go into insane rages about your love for spicy crab cakes unless it's the weekend, and that, only if you're being cradled by chucka-boo-boo.
\nTake off the hockey mask, don't wear your wetsuit to bed again tonight & above all....learn to read.

\nIf your looking to connect and find friendly interactions then I'm sure you will make them. I don't know how west coast people on this forum are when it comes to reality but I've been able to connect with real cool east coast surfer people on this site and that's despite my harsh humor and beatings of latex dolls.
\nJason this is how I dealt with my Yankee virus, I used a heavy dose of aggression until the trolling frequency begins to diminish. You seem like a sharp guy, use your prior forum skills to your advantage.

Solitude builds character...........
\nYou're going to be "that guy" until you aren't "that guy."
\nCalifornians are vicious people, so do not be discouraged when no one responds to this. Plus, there's like three dudes from California on here and one of them is always strung-out and dopesick. Suboxone, Meatloaf, suboxone.
\nTry hanging an ad in the entrance of your nearest Ralph's or better yet, in West Hollywood. say you're looking to ride with some cool dudes.
\nAhhh I'm just playing around, dude. I hope you meet some people and your California dream comes true. Isolation is only for special kinds of lunatics who enjoy being tortured by their own thoughts and observations.
\nAnyways, you might want to try another site as this site is dominated by dudes from Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina and North Jersey. And you do Not want to meet people from North Jersey. YUCK. Oh God, so gross.....OMG, all they have is landfills and Superfund toxic sites and loud mouthed Italian women. Oh man I'm going to get sick just thinking aboot it.

Yeah, there are but like a couple guys from CA and they all live down in San Diego. I am now back on the east coast. There is basically NO activity on this site from the west coast guys. They are too busy surfing every day. Good luck

\nAnd, spicoli is correct: the only Platinum Plus thread, ever, on SI Forum is the "Hello!" thread. Not only did it inspire the absolute worst from the SI crew (which means the best) it essentially wore out the brain pans of the entire SI Forum for two months. And, I think it sent a gnome in an orange pantsuits into a terminal tailspin.

So either Jason is a current member trying to get himself a HOF thread like the Hello one or obviously does not know this forum. Jason, considering 85% or more of the posters are on the East Coast and you come with this holier than thou attitude about us this may very well go the direction of the Hello thread. Second if you think surfers on SI are "laid back" about folks asking for help you have not read sh!t on here. And speaking for the South (and perhaps Yankee too):

My best advice is to buy a cool surf van and give away free surf wax to all the locals, and free surfboards to their kids. You will make lots of friends this way, and they will always be happy to see your van pull up to their spot.

I didn't come to the forum with the intention to start fights, but I guess I just didn't do enough thread searching before joining. In any case, no harm no foul do most of you, to the rest, you can keep your forum. Later, bros.

\nI wish you luck, man..there has to be some cool people out there, but you have to also realize that there are already way too many people surfing out there, so most people aren't going to be excited about having another person out there...but f$ck it...to for it.
\nI would suggest researching the coast, finding a nice beach break around your area that is geared toward beginner and start there, though...

What's up, swellinfo?
Hey, I just moved to Orange County in August and I joined the forum hoping to meet some nearby people to maybe hang out and go surf with. In all honesty, I never surfed before I moved here and I'm still learning (aka I suck hardcore). I figure if I can go with some people who know what they're doing, I'll learn faster. I don't want to be "that guy" everyone dreads when they see me paddling out to the lineup, so if there are any HB, Seal Beach, Newport or other nearby break folks who don't mind taking a rookie under their wing, I would be really appreciative of the help. Besides all that, it super sucks going out to the beach alone. I mean, it's nice to get some quiet time, but having someone to talk to is cool too. Plus, if I'm lucky enough to get a peak to myself, I get tired really fast. Anyway, that's pretty much my deal; hopefully you guys (and girls? I don't know) will be cool about all this nonsense.

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form.

Experimenting as a Valuable Way of Doing Science
September 29, 2012 in Exciting Stuff by Jasmin Ganti
It wakes me up by barking at me. It reminds me 10 minutes before every class where I should be. I can ask it a question and it responds with endless answers from the web. It's a wonderful and breakthrough HANDHELD computer unlike any phone before it. The face of the iPhone is Steve Jobs but the retina camera, plated .5mm sleek with multi-touch screen display, or the voice recognition are each their own products of experiments done by someone like you and me. These people, or apple engineers, had to conduct experiments simply because experimenting is a valuable way of doing science. Experiments provide a powerful way to understand the relationship between variables, like how the iPhone's large display, networking features and powerful processor all take a toll on the battery life.
Learning how to conduct experiments like this may be difficult for young learners because of the attention to multiple details and dreaded testing that generally comes along with it in class. I am almost certain that these apple engineers started in fourth row of their math and biology class bored out of their minds simply because tests have become less of a way to see who is learning but rather a way to achieve a grade to pass a course. I know 90% of the time much of the work assigned to me for my science classes is essentially busy work that I do passively in order to get a good grade. And 100% of the time the answers to these assignments and to exams are what the professor FEELS is the right choice. Essentially, testing has taken the fun out of learning science. With no passion or willingness to even want to do an experiment, students easily lose sight of important fundamentals of learning science. As Aleja stated in her Nature as a Science Blog, science is everywhere. But why would I care to engage in the science around me if I see it as nothing more than just a chore?
The only way to understand the many aspects of science is to experience it for yourself and experiment. Hands-on learning fosters the establishment of oneself in the culture of science. A student's science identity is influenced by their attitude. If ones attitude is jaded by the overwhelming learned helplessness of not being able to regurgitate facts as the teacher asks…..then who would ever want to take a chance in becoming a scientist and participate in the hands-on learning. If one cannot learn how to persist despite the challenges they face, one cannot expect to advance in the long winding road of finding what inspires you in the field of science. MY phone is what is because of the experimental process and "just as with a picture where the photographer or illustrator reveals where he or she stands in relation to the scene, so too we can recognize that using a scientific perspective allows us to see things in a certain way" (129 Settlage/Southerland). Somewhere down the road, potential young scientists lose sight of this fact that THEY HAVE THE RIGHT ANSWERS! The beauty behind experimenting is that not everyone is going to click and see the solution to a problem all the same way. What matters is the data that supports the end result. Great ideas do not grow unless they are picked at by many different minds and in turn these great ideas have a way of becoming great products, JUST LIKE MY PHONE. But great minds only come to life if they discover and keep in mind that experimenting is not only about doing an experiment to find results but it is also about developing a way to connect their world experiences with their identity as a scientist.

This review is from: Rosewill Neutron – Mini Tower Computer Case – Gaming Cube – Supports Mini-ITX M/B – Supports Standard PS/2 PSU – Supports Up to 13.3" (340 mm) VGA Cards & Up to 6 Fans
Pros: -Plenty of room for cable management... or anything you want in front of the case near the included 2xLED Fans
-Removable motherboard plate - not as easy as computex of 2 years ago hyped, but still a couple of screws later it is out and makes installation SO MUCH EASIER
-Removable HDD cage with 2 thumbscrews - again, not like original computex hyped us, but still simple enough
-Surprising complete dustproofing. The front mesh/filter is removable and magnetic, top has a mesh held in place by rubber screws, and side has magnetic PSU internal filter. Noice work!
Cons: -Weird rubber grommets that, while appreciated, sometimes are above areas of the case not even the thinnest sable can go through. Sorta lame, condiering the ones that work could have been bigger.
-No dedicated airflow or entry of air for the GPU - while the windowed panel is nice and cool, the lack of ability to install a 200+mm fan up front and the delegation of the graphics to the side means higher temps unless panel is open (defeating the purpose of a windowed panel!) Recommend a blower style fan GPU, reference probably better here.
This review is from: SeaSonic S12G S12G-650 650W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Active PFC Power Supply
Pros: -Small compared to most power supplies (5.5 vs 6.3 inches in length)
-Fits my Bitfenix Phenom perfectly!!! Finding a psu that fit was hard!
-Black and flat cables, easy to route and not bad aesthetically
-Quiet fan, not top notch in looks or much else but works and I don't notice it
-Only ONE set of molex connectors! Finally someone realized no one used this connection anymore!
-80+ Gold, really efficient
Cons: -Non modular, some people may find this annoying and tough to route or hide extra cables.
-Simplistic, nothing specially or "poppy" for the eye to catch
-Motherboard 24 pin connector not flat and not entirely sleeved, end is colored
Other Thoughts: I found this PSU while looking for a perfect fit for my new Bitfenix Phenom case, which really can only house 5.5 inch long PSUs due to the restrictive cage underneath mobo, This fit and worked perfectly, and although I was initially worried about it working or being reliable because it is new in the market I was gladly pleased. Seasonic did not dissapoint on my first PSU from them, and by the way I had PSUs from Corsair and EVGA previously.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: EVGA 06G-P4-2793-KR GeForce GTX TITAN SuperClocked Signature 6GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP, SLI Ready Video Card
Pros: -Superior Kepler GK110 architecture
-Ability to switch to double-precision for computing and graphics designing
-Amazing power, even when slightly bottlenecked by power limitations or underclocking
-Slick appeal, with lighting Geforece GTX side logo, which is modifiable through EVGA software
-Quiet and well behaved under most circunstances
-Easy overclocking with EVGA Precision X
-GPU Boost 2.0: thermals over TDP
-The signature edition comes with an EVGA shirt; gaming mouse pad; an EVGA poster; cupons for EVGA PSUs
-Free Metro: Last Light <- THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR THIS CARD
Cons: -Meant for extremely high resolutions, where it shines
-Compared to last gen and the GTX 780, 1080p gaming may not yield the most benefit out of the card for the price point
-If your PSU has less wattage than the minimum 650W, you will have to set your Titan to abide to power limits rather than temperature, as it naturally overclocks itself above 1Ghz and consumes more power, causing some systems to randomnly shut down
-Does not come with backplate for price point, had to order one from Hong Kong due to its scarcity
Other Thoughts: This is an amazing purchase for those with the money and desire to have the absolute best single card in the market today. It may not be the MOST POWERFUL single card despite having the most powerful GPU, but its amazing architecture and design make it very appealing visually as much as it is according to the specs. Furthermore, the EVGA Superclocked Signature edition makes it even mroe sweet to own such card, as the box and extras that come are useful, awesome and truly enhance the experience. Even if you are still gaming on 1080p like me, this card is still betetr than all otehr single GPU cards out today, even the GTX 780. However, if you have a multi-monitor setup with very high resolutions running constantly, this card will be specially useful for you. And please, if you buy this card get a case with a windowed side-panel, as it's worth looking at your money's worth!READ FULL REVIEW

Here Comes Honey Boo Boo
Honey Boo Boo's Alana Thompson Then and Now: See Her Dramatic Transformation (PHOTOS)
We first met Alana Thompson in 2009 on the reality TV show Toddlers & Tiaras. The then 4-year-old beauty pageant star often looked primped and pampered, wearing makeup, frilly dresses, and rocking big curly hairdos. Lucky for all of us, Alana and her family got their own spin-off show in 2012 called Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, where we got to see our favorite pageant star in her hometown of McIntyre, Georgia.
Here's a photo of Honey Boo Boo on the set of Extra in Los Angeles, California in 2011. Doesn't she look super glammed up? Click to the next slide to see Alana now, without all of the makeup and glitz!

Photos: A Good Year For Poaching, Not So Good For Elephants
"Unfortunately, most years are bad, since we've taken over the planet," Michael "Nick" Nichols of National Geographic laments on the phone.
The wildlife trade monitoring network Traffic said in a statement this week that "2011 has seen a record number of large ivory seizures globally." The seizures amount to more than 25 tons of ivory and probably represent "some 2,500 elephants, possibly more," the statement reads.
Nichols is quick to assert that he's "no expert" — but he kind of is. A veteran wildlife and conservation photographer, and now editor at large, he's been entrenched in these issues for decades. He's currently on a long-term assignment documenting lions in the Serengeti — and sending dispatches as he goes.
And for years, elephants have been close to his heart. His coverage has ranged from a 2006 story on poaching around Zakouma National Park in Chad to a story on elephant orphans in National Geographic's August issue.
A lot has changed over the course of just a few years. Numbers might say it best: When Nichols started photographing in Chad in 2006, there were 3,600 elephants there, he says, "and it dropped all the way to 600 [this year]." That's even in areas under watch and protection.
"If you're losing elephants in places where we watch them ... you've got a huge, huge problem," Nichols says.
So why the spike in elephant poaching? Why now? Nichols speculates, and Traffic asserts, that it's the growing demand for ivory from a growing middle class in East Asia — "and the increasing sophistication of the criminal gangs behind the trafficking," the Traffic statement reads. "Most illegal shipments of African elephant ivory end up in either China or Thailand."
For someone like Nichols, whose mission it is to stop this kind of activity, there are two options for recourse. Show the grisly side of things: Elephant carcasses, piles of tusks, armed traffickers. Or make a more emotional appeal by showing what's to love about elephants.
Here, Nichols shares some of his favorite photos from his time in the field.
