Larry Ness' Las Vegas Insider (58-38-1 TY in NBA): Larry hit a 'speed bump' this week in the NBA but with 4 weeks still to go in this lockout-shortened season, he remains a MONEY-MAKING 58-38-1 or 57-38-2 with all releases. Larry & his "unmatched" contacts have been providing winning selections on the net (in all sports) for a decade & tonight it's his latest Las Vegas Insider, Want in?
Game: Indiana Pacers at San Antonio Spurs Mar 31 2012 8:35PM
Prediction: San Antonio Spurs
Grade: Winner (100)
Reason: My 8* Las Vegas Insider is on the SA Spurs at 8:35 ET.
In this lockout-shortened season, player fatigue has been a major worry for head coaches. No one has taken it more seriously than San Antonio Spurs� head coach Gregg Popovich, who has done a masterful job with Duncan, the oft-injured Ginobili, and PG Parker (the core of the team�s championship years). This year�s 66 games have been compressed into a four-month period, with teams regularly playing back-to-back games (and even three games in three nights) while allowing little time for practice. With three months �in the books� and just one to go, the Spurs are 35-14, atop the Southwest Division (lead the defending champion Mavs by seven games!) and only three games back of Western Conference-leading Oklahoma City. The key this year has been San Antonio�s amazing depth, which has allowed Popovich to rely less on stars Tim Duncan (15.0-9.0), Tony Parker (19.4-8.0 APG) and Manu Ginobili (12.6-3.3-4.6). Those three have played together just 17 times this year (team is 13-4), meaning the Spurs are 21-10 when at least one has been injured or held out by �Pop.� Green (8.4-3.7) has been starting lately with Parker in the backcourt and rookie Leonard (8.3-5.4) up front with Duncan. Blair (9.7-5.7) has started all season, as an undersized center. Neal (9.6) has been terrific as a backup guard all season and now Stephen Jackson (10.0-3.8 in six games) is back as a Spur. Up front, Splitter (9.2-5.1) works hard inside and Bonner (7.2-3.4) roams the three-point line (45.4% on threes). The Spurs own a six-game winning streak (longest active) with rookie Kawhi Leonard averaging 13.3 points during the run. Third-year players DeJuan Blair (11.7) and Danny Green (9.3) are also playing well, plus second-year guard Gary Neal is scoring 9.8 per game over that span. Then there is former Spur Stephen Jackson, who leads the Spurs' bench players with 10.0 PPG during the six-game winning streak. "We didn't have this kind of depth last year," said Popovich, whose team has won nine of 10. "Our young players allow us not to overplay our veterans like Timmy and Tony. But down the stretch tonight I thought our experience really showed." The Pacers have an excellent starting-five, all of whom average in double digits. Granger (17.9-4.8) and West (12.0-6.8) surround center Hibbert (12.9-8.9) up front with George (12.2-5.3) and PG Collison (10.7-4.8 APG) taking care of the backcourt. Hill (9.4), a former Spur and how SA got rookie Leonard, has been excellent as the backup PG plus the recent acquisition of Barbosa (7.0 PPG in seven gams but a proven double digit scorer off the bench), was a big pickup. Hansbrough (9.5-4.5) has been �steady as he goes� all year. However, the Pacers face a rested SA team here (last played Wednesday) and one which is 20-4 SU and 17-7 ATS at home this year. The Spurs have won EIGHT consecutive meetings over the Pacers since last losing to Indiana during the 2006-07 campaign (100-99 at Indianapolis on April 1). What�s more, the Spurs will be looking for their 10th straight home win over the Pacers! Lay it.
Good luck...Larry

A Broward County sheriff's deputy is dead and another is injured Thursday after a child pornography suspect opened fire on them with a high-powered weapon.
The shooting occurred as deputies were trying to serve a search warrant.
Thirty-three-year-old Detective Todd Fatta was killed when shots hit him in the chest, penetrating his bulletproof vest.
Sergeant Angelo Cedeno, who is 36, was shot in the hand and shoulder and is undergoing surgery at North Broward Medical Center. Sheriff's officials say he's in stable condition.
Kenneth Wilk was taken into custody at the scene. No charges have been filed yet. Other officers returned fire at Wilk, but Sheriff Ken Jenne says Wilk wasn't injured.
The deputies were part of a multi-agency Law Enforcement Against Child Harm, which combats child porn. Fatta had been with the sheriff's office for nine years. Cedeno is a 15-year veteran.

Here's what I do! Domino's thin and crispy crust is vegan, so I'll order one of those without cheese and TONS of veggies. Then, while I'm waiting for it, I preheat my oven. When the pizza comes I cut myself a few slices, sprinkle some Daiya vegan cheese on it, and pop it in the oven until it gets all melty (: Easy peasy. You can do it! 😀You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

I agree what the others have said – vegan pizza is lovely and so easy to make. Plus some shops even sell ready-made vegan pizzas if you're feeling lazy 😉 Or get a take-away pizza and just ask for no-cheese.
I used to be an extremely 'fussy eater' but now I'm vegan I'm more willing to try new foods and actually eat a wider variety of things so go for it!You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Hi Marlizz
Vegan pizza can be superamazing! I'd definitely recommend making it yourself so you can have it your favorite way. Kelly at Perfect Pizza has screamingly awesome recipes:
Or use Happy Cow to find pizza restaurants close to you that are vegan-friendly:
And if you can find them in your local grocery store/health food store freezer, try these:
Vegan pizzas by Tofurky http://www.tofurky.com/tofurkyproducts/pizza.html
Amy's pizzas http://www.amys.com/products/product-categories/pizzas

The great feeling that I get knowing that I'm no longer supporting such horrible pain & suffering by consuming dairy products makes it surprisingly easy to adhere to a vegan diet, even though I too am a picky eater and love pizza.
I haven't really had to give up pizza though.
Shortly after I dropped dairy from my diet, I would often make vegan pizza and it would come out great. You don't even have to use cheese, but, of course there is vegan cheese if you want to use it.
There are recipes online for making popular pizza chain pizza.
I tried recipes for Pizza Hut, Round Table and Shakey's and they all came out good.
You can either simply exclude the non-vegan ingredients or you can substitute them with vegan ingredients. My pizzas were coming out good either way.
The more I made them, the better I got at it, and the better they would come out.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Commercial Landlords Beware of Breaching the Ever Expanding Implied Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment
Amanda Jassem Jones
Alex Paul Rosenthal
Rosenthal Law Group - Weston Office
October 10, 2012
Absent a contractual provision to the contrary, every commercial lease agreement entered into in the state of Florida carries an implied covenant of peaceable and quiet enjoyment. The covenant of quiet enjoyment is equivalent to a representation by the landlord that the tenant will not be evicted or estopped by good title in possession of the leased premises or any part thereof. While it is commonplace for commercial landlords to engage in maintenance, construction and/or other activities in the common areas of a shopping center, tenants that are attempting to be relieved of their obligations under the lease will inevitably contend that a landlord's foregoing actions constitute a breach of the implied covenant of quiet enjoyment. Commercial landlords have routinely defended such claims and/or rebutted such defenses by contending that their actions did not rise to the level of constructive eviction and/or that their actions occurred solely within the common areas - not the leased premises. However, these arguments may carry less weight after a recent ruling in the case of
Coral Wood Page, Inc. v. GRE Coral Wood, LP
. In this case, the Second District Court of Appeal held that tenants can assert a claim for breach of the implied covenant of quiet enjoyment and/or maintain such a defense even when the landlord and/or their authorized agent's actions did not rise to the level of eviction and that the covenant of quiet enjoyment encompasses a landlord and/or their authorized agent's actions occurring not only in the leased premises, but also the common areas. Accordingly, commercial landlords should take caution and confer with counsel prior to engaging in any actions in the common areas of the commercial property (including common areas and other tenant spaces) that could potentially interfere with a tenant's use of its leased premises.

Remember boys if you think about pushing a girl into the pool that is domestic violence. Also when you attend the pool party your finger prints and photo will be taken and stored in a mega database by law enforcement and the NSA. The traffic cameras also took your parents pictures during the drive to the Aquatic Center and will also be stored in the mega database. However remember to have fun!

Ambitious effort seeks to restore forests, protect water
After about a minute of counting, Arciniega reaches the core's center. "It's roughly 110 or so years old," he says, craning his neck to peer toward the top of the towering pine. What is interesting about this tree isn't necessarily its age. It's the pattern in the rings themselves.

Partnership provides windbreaks new life
Windbreaks are an important practice for many Kansas farmers and ranchers. Among many benefits they help protect the soil and enhance crop productivity. But many windbreaks in the state are old and tired, and in need of repair. The Kansas Forest Service (KFS) identified this concern as a priority in its State Forest Action Plan, and a few years ago organized windbreak assessments in the southwestern and western parts of the state to learn more about the condition of existing windbreaks.

2015 wildfire season costliest on record
The 2015 fire season cost a record $1.71 billion, according to numbers released by the U.S. Forest Service last week. That figure tops the $1.67 billion (adjusted for inflation) spent in 2002. Fires this year also consumed more than 9.8 million acres – close to another single-year record for acres burned (2006). Fire records date back to 1960.

Forest Service report exposes 'broken fire budget'
The U.S. Forest Service has increased the pace and scale of forest restoration by nine percent since 2011, according to a recent report. Despite the gains, at least 65 million National Forest System acres are still in need of restoration work. The rising cost of wildfire suppression, as fires have become more intense and more expensive to fight in recent years, has taken funding away from restoration, watershed and wildlife programs, limiting the Forest Service's ability to do the work that would prevent fires in the first place.
With a record 52 percent of the Forest Service's budget dedicated to fighting wildfire in 2015, compared to just 16 percent in 1995, the Forest Service's ability to do more restoration work within the current budget structure is severely constrained by the increasing proportion of resources spent on fire.
Before a single fire broke out in 2015, the Forest Service started the Fiscal Year with a budget of $115 million less for all work not related to fire than the previous year. Budget constraints have also reduced staffing for restoration, watershed and recreation by nearly 40 percent, from about 18,000 in 1998 to fewer than 11,000 people in 2015.
"The Forest Service has made tremendous progress in conducting restoration work to keep our forests healthy and resilient. However, because of the growing cost of fighting more frequent and dangerous wildfires, much of the work that supports healthy forests is being starved", USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack said. "The magnitude of the crisis demands that we cannot go another year without a solution to the Forest Service's broken fire budget."

Joint Forestry Team Meets in Washington, D.C.
Last week, the Joint Forestry Team (JFT) met in Washington, D.C. to hear from leadership and shape a work plan for the coming year. The JFT, established in 2007, consists of representatives from the U.S. Forest Service, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), National Association of State Foresters (NASF) and NACD. NACD is represented by Johnny Sundstrom (JFT chairman, Ore.) and Charles Holmes (Ala.) and Tom Crowe (Ind.), both of whom also serve on the NACD Forest Resource Policy Group.
In his address to JFT members and guests, NACD President-elect Lee McDaniel stressed the value of working together.
"By having a partnership like this, and a common goal, it gives us an advantage when entering the political arena to seek what we need instead of each of us trying to go it alone," McDaniel said.
The four members of the JFT have shared ideas over the past seven years about program monitoring, technical service delivery, and even worked to draft a common template that multiple agencies can use to shape forest management plans.

Proposal Would Replace Shuttered Brooklyn Libraries With New Spaces
Under a plan being considered by the Brooklyn Public Library to shutter aging, little-used buildings, the library would replace any facilities it closes with new spaces in the same neighborhoods, a spokesman said Tuesday.
As The Wall Street Journal reported earlier, the library's new strategic plan includes a proposal to ease the burden of $230 million in much-needed repairs by tapping the system's real-estate holdings. The library is considering moving out of buildings that are in poor condition or in inconvenient locations, far from commercial strips and difficult for patrons to reach. The revenue would be used to pay for repairs and create new spaces designed for the digital age.
Library spokesman Jeremy Soffin said Tuesday plans are too preliminary for the library to say whether new branches would be housed in standalone buildings, hold the same number of books or offer the same programs.
The buildings being considered for closure include – but are not limited to – some so-called Carnegie branches, built in the early 1900s by industrialist Andrew Carnegie. A report released last week by the Center for an Urban Future noted examples of such branches in Brownsville, Read Hook and Fort Greene, where physical isolation has led to low circulation and program attendance.
Johnson, the library's president and CEO, declined to discuss details of potential real-estate deals the library is seeking.
In an interview on Friday, she said: "We are not abandoning neighborhoods… There are some neighborhoods where we've got a library, but it's just on the wrong block."
She said the library supports the preservation of buildings that have historic value, but noted they could be adapted for other uses.
One real-estate deal library and city officials have made public comments about is a planned new 16,500 square-foot branch in a 32-story building proposed for the Downtown Brooklyn Cultural District near the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

magazine/drive - I think you should be able to get away with just doing
an inventory with the HP loader you have - I don't think it's got a
mailslot/portal. Imports are usually for autoloaders with a
mailslot/portal (the import moves tapes from the mailslot/portal to a
slot in the library).

What a cool science teacher.
Tonight on Fox News, "Skateboards causing small explosions, is this alternative sport safe for your child? Coming up next after Mass Effect: Sex Party, Special Report."
Sure this dude dresses like Beyonce, but he's really a pumpkin so you can totally eat him without going to jail!
While taking a dump on your friends, it is always polite to bring reading material for both you and your toilet.
Ok. So, basically, driving in Russia is f*cking terrifying. There are TONS of accidents and it is nearly impossible to receive any sort of compensation for damages (manage to catch the offender, get insurance coverage, then you have the corrupt officials to deal with) unless there is concrete evidence; hence the recent (and brilliant) serge in constantly recording dash board cameras. Oh, and Russians REALLY like to take out their aggression on fellow drivers. Well, the men do. Notice there are no women pictured. It's called civility. If you are wondering about the "poor" fellow who seemingly falls down in front of the car around 1:13 and then gets his ass kicked for it, well, apparently that's a common ploy in those parts. That fall was no accident. It's a straight up wild west out there. And it makes for some damn good footage! Enjoy! PS. If anyone can tell us what the heck is going on around 2:33 we'd LOVE to know...

June 17, 2009 | Author: Mini | In: Anime Blogs, K-ON
The calm before the storm
In which Ritsu finally snaps and gives Mio some "yan-yan". Higurashi ain't got nothin' on this plot twist.
Cognitive overload
Okay, that's not how the episode quite pans out. The light music club is gearing up for the next school festival and, against Mio's protests, Sawako shows the footage from last year to Azusa – including "that stage accident". In her usual airheaded style, Yui shows her lack of knowledge with guitar maintenance, prompting a trip to the music store.
The Mugi-Mania Mob makes its move
While Mio goes bonkers over a new bunch of left-handed instruments, Yui's guitar (sorry, Gitah) gets a once-over. Yui looks especially precious when her guitar is being "deflowered". Luckily, Tsumugi's status as the store-owner's daughter means they get this one for free. However, something goes awry between Ritsu and Mio.
You gotta problem wit' dat?
Seeing as they've been friends since they were young, Ritsu is getting just a bit jealous of Mio's friendship with Nodoka. Things come to a head when they confront each other about this during practice, leading to an awkward stand-off.
This time, Azusa's distraction pays off to get the ball rolling again. Nice use of the cat-ears, kiddo. But Ritsu doesn't seem to be in the mood for practice – angst-caused apathy, perhaps?
It's tiring work being this cute
Thankfully it's nothing quite so dramatic: Ritsu's down for the count with the flu. Mio visits her and they have a little bonding session (NOT LIKE THAT), and the rest of the band get to see Ritsu convalescing in a moéful manner. Yui then proceeds to "match wavelengths" once again and promptly falls asleep too.
Another prospective album cover
With Ritsu back in action, the band is at full strength. Sawako reaches the end of her tether and gives the band a name, and everything looks peachy-keen. Until Yui sneezes.
At least they weren't out of breath
Editorial: when Mio is wondering why Ritsu isn't around, Tsumugi and Yui arrive at the classroom together. Furthermore, at 17:50, it's clearly visible that their hair is slightly dishevelled. Just what kind of after-school activity were they up to…? *a scent of lilies wafts through the room*
Oh God the moé

Fourth grade teacher Julie Baker is getting ready for the first day of school at McCullouch Elementary School in Jackson. She's excited for some small changes that will make a big difference to her students.
"Before [the upgrades] the lights would flicker while the kids were working which was distracting," said Baker.
And, "as we were working it would "ping" over and over again and it would sometimes happen every two minutes, very loudly," said Baker.
The pinging noise? Compliments of the old heating system. But now, there are timed lights, new floor, new white board and the new heating system with a bonus --- more shelving.
"It does a lot for our experience," said Baker. "And that will take us to a whole new level."
Thanks to bond dollars and the Federal Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the Jackson Public School System has been progressively making improvements across the district from cleaning up asbestos to installing new venilation systems --- all upgrades that the district says look good and bode well for the budget.
"They save the district money because we're more conscious about energy and how the buildings function," said Jackson Public Schools spokewoman A'Lynne Robinson.
Renovations have been happening from the inside out, including new asphalt in the parking lots and news trees and mulch. But, many say the renovations go far beyond the physical.
"If we don't have the technology that students need to learn in this information age then students fall behind," said Robinson.
Parts of the district are going from dilapidated to almost designer by making an investment in the future.

Product Description
Dutch publisher White Goblin Games has now released info about Khan, the third new standalone game it will have on hand at Spiel 2010 this coming October:
1244 – The Mongol Empire rules from Eastern Europe all the way across Asia to the Pacific Ocean. It was (and still is) the largest contiguous empire in the history of the world. The Great Khan rules over the empire from the capital Karakorum, and he sends out his best generals to conquer more areas for the ruler of all Mongols. Mongol strategy gives individual generals a high degree of independence in deciding how to invade and conquer new territories, so long as they keep to the overall objectives. The Mongol armies are highly mobile and enemies are terrorized by their ability to appear everywhere at once. To prevent enemy rulers from being able to regain control of their armies, the Mongols drive the rulers out and pursue them relentlessly wherever they flee.
In Khan it's your task to chase out the eight different rulers of the lands that you are invading and to conquer as many valuable areas as you can. The general who fulfills his task best will be proclaimed the next Great Khan.
Each player invades areas by placing his yurts on the board. A player can then conquer two or more adjecent areas by laying one of the variously shaped conquer tiles over the yurts. (Not all the yurts need to be the player's own.) Conquer tiles will bring the player victory points, and the larger the tile, the greater the number of victory points. At the end of the game, the players with the largest connected conquered territories will gain additional victory points. The player who then has the most points wins.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Monday, Mar. 4, 2014
WAGENER, S.C. (WRDW) -- An Aiken County man is behind bars facing a felony charge after allegedly shooting and killing his two dogs.
The Aiken County Sheriff's Office responded to Eagerton Road, outside the Town of Wagener, Monday after receiving a tip about gunfire.
According to an incident report, 83-year-old Edward Smith told officers that Department of Social Services told him that in order for his wife to live at home, the dogs had to go. He then admitted he shot and killed the animals.
"It was emotionally draining," says an anonymous neighbor who heard the gunfire. "It was pitiful, and there's nothing we could do, because we were afraid."
According to the report, Smith says he shot one on the back porch and another inside the home. Smith reportedly told deputies that he used multiple round to kill the first dog.
"While he was shooting the second [dog], he ran out of bullets then tried to use less than lethal bullets with negative results," the report reads. "[Smith] stated, at this time, the animal was badly injured, still alive, and running around the residence."
Neighbors say they were terrorized by the howls of the crying pet.
"It tears you up. You don't like to hear or see any animal hurt like that," one neighbor says.
The responding officer arrested Smith and transported him to Aiken County Detention Center, where he has since been charged with a felony count of Ill Treatment of Animals. Smith was not granted bond on Tuesday. He is being held for a mental screening.
While on scene, Smith told officers the animals were not sick or dying, his reasons to shoot were solely based on what South Carolina Department of Social Services told him.
A spokeswoman with DSS says Smith's explanation isn't true.
"The Department of Social Services doesn't address issues related to pets," the spokeswoman says in a statement. "We provide human services and would never advise someone to destroy a pet."
Neighbors News 12 talked to say Smith could have handled the situation in a different manner.
"If you're needing some assistance, just call us. You call us, and then we'll refer you to animal control or we can also have animal control respond out there with us," says Captain Eric Abdullah with the Aiken County Sheriff's Office.

Major IPCC Report Draft Leaked Then Cherry-Picked By Climate Sceptics
Graham Readfearn | December 13, 2012
By Graham Readfearn • Thursday, December 13, 2012 - 23:08
A CLIMATE sceptic blogger Alec Rawls has taken it upon himself to leak the current draft of an entire major Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, which is not due for publication until September next year.
For those not au fait with the machinations of the IPCC (I mean, what do you lot do all day?) historically this United Nations organisation has produced reports every five years or so which pull together and summarise all the scientific research into climate change.
The next one - Assessment Report 5 - will begin to be published next year. They're undeniably important reports because practically every government on the face of the earth has used them to help inform their policies and their position domestically and internationally on climate change.
The AR5 comes via three working groups. WG1 looks at the physical science on climate change and its report will be first out of the traps in September 2013. WG2 looks at climate change impacts, adaptation and vulnerability and comes out in March 2014. WG3 looks at ways to mitigate climate change and comes out in October 2014.
But back to the leak.

(Back to Haunted Movies Index)
Rated R for violence/gore and some nudity.
Directed by Joe Castro.
Written by Rudy Balli.
The cast includes: Beverly Lynne, Lizzie Borden, Kerry Liu, Fernando Padilla, Brandon Reininger, and Jack Roberts.
Terror Toons, starring porn icon Lizzie Borden and Beverly Lynne, has a bad porn feel to it, only without the titillating sex and nudity. And cohesive plot.
Candy and Cindy are sisters left home for the night when their dad and "mom" leave for a wedding. Cindy receives a DVD called Terror Toons, which unleashes supposed cartoon characters Dr. Carnage and Max Assassin.
I'll give Beverly Lynne and Kelly Liu credit, they at least try to do a halfway decent job, but they are let down by their director and the special effects department. Joe Castro doesn't so much film as he just happens to keep a camera in the room as his story unfolds. The special effects would be laughable if they weren't so nauseating...not nauseating in the sense of "ooh, brains" but in the sense of "ooh, special effects goop."
It took one person to come up with the story, and three to come up with the script. What exactly took three people? The tired cartoon characters running through doors in a hallway? The cop who likes donuts? Strip Ouija?
This is a horrible, hateful little movie that will make you wonder about humanity's capacity to come together and put together something so unbelievably awful. Stay away from it.

Work last night, off tonight, so I'm doing a bit of catching up.
Last Friday I took Boy skating (that is to say, he skated and I provided the transportation), and while I was pecking on the laptop some woman and her daughter asked if they could leave their drinks on my table so the staff wouldn't clean them up while they went skating. I saw no problem with that, but now Boy is telling everyone about Dad's new girlfriend. Sad to say, I don't even remember her name. Not an auspicious start, that.
Apparently, according to the Most Holy Order of the Higher-Up Muckety-Mucks, we had an exceptional quarter so there will be bonuses. Maybe I'll be able to put a full tank of gas in the car, or purchase some reloading supplies if any can be found. Something explosive at any rate, I certainly wouldn't want it to go to waste. I made the tactical error of saying something about it to my new Sith apprentice (he started on the night shift this month, and WTF is up with this, the Jedi apprentices get a cool name like Padawan and ours get nothing? Who makes these rules anyway?), who being a temp doesn't get the bonus. Oops.
Happy Birthday to The Mistress of the Snark and John Moses Browning (there is one caliber, .45 ACP, and John Moses Browning is it's prophet, PBUH). A day late (two in JMB's case) but we're sort of out of the way here at the backside of nowhere.
I was supposed to get some range time in this weekend, but weather and (mostly) worker exploitation (of my range partner, AKA he who has the gun club membership) got in the way. Eh, it was going to be cold anyway*, and I have an open carry dinner to go to instead. Drop in if you're in the area, McCalls has good grub and the company is always welcome.
Tis the season (if there isn't one there should be) to give the gift of life. I'm an O negative myself, meaning when I was still USN-AD I was part of the walking blood bank because I'm a universal donor. Of course if I ever need the red stuff I'm SOL if they ain't got my type. Lucky me. Fortunately I don't have the problems that some do about giving blood, even though I, too, am rather needle-adverse. I wouldn't be a good diabetic or junkie I guess. Where I work makes this easy, they have the ARC van come by at least twice a year.
Lucky Gunner did a piece on steel vs brass cases using .223 ammo. I encourage anyone who has ever wondered how much difference it really makes to drop on by and have a look. I prefer brass myself since you can't reload steel, but with 36,000 rounds expended you can't say they didn't do their homework. Please do note, I'm not an official Lucky Gunner correspondent but it is a rather interesting piece. (I'm guessing they did this test before .223 became so hard to come by, as of right now they have none in stock.)
To sleep, perchance to dream. I have to be up early and get my supplies laid in before the big one hits. We're expecting sleet and freezing rain, but with the way these idiots drive when it's JUST rain I surely don't want to be out in it with them. Looks like the bulk of the bad weather will be up in MSgt B territory, but by the time it gets going real good I plan to have a nice fire going and a good book on my lap.
Stay warm and safe if you are in the eye of the storm. I'm looking at the three of youse.
*I've had a heart-to-heart with the lowlife scum sucking maggots here and they have agreed to only attack me when its sunny and warm. They have further agreed only to come at me with the sun in their eyes and to stand perfectly still whilst I draw and aim at them. They're really an agreeable lot, once you get to know them.**
**I'm trusting that my readership understands that I'm completely full of it here.

Nail polish for dogs. I have to admit, I was skeptical. Merry is a very active puppy and relatively sturdy-looking, so I wasn't sure she could carry it off. Not to mention the fact that she squirms so much, it might be nearly impossible for her to stay still long enough in order to actually have her nails painted.
The diva princess would present my greatest challenge.
When we received our package from OPI (the company that manufactures Pawlish), Merry sniffed at is cautiously as I pulled out nailpolish remover, remover pads, and six different bottles of Pawlish. The diva princess was too hyper to try it right then. I planned my attack carefully.
I waited until a lazy Saturday afternoon when the princess pug was napping. Carefully I went about placing treats, nailpolish and remover and pads on the dining room table. Somewhere halfway through this the princess arose and totted over to see what I was doing. I offered her a treat, and made her stretch high to get it. Once she was stretched, I made my move, lifting her into my arms and sitting at the table so I could settle her in my lap, belly and paws sticking out.
We had a few moments of panic when she thought I would clip her nails, but surprisingly once she figured out the polish didn't hurt, she stopped squirming and let me paint her nails a dazzling purple.
It dried pretty quickly—only a minute or two—during which time I kept the princess occupied with treats and a good rub behind the ears. Since she loves being the centre of attention, she didn't mind too much.
The colors are fabulous, and the purple looked just lovely on her. OPI kindly sent along their full colour range - Poodle Pink, Bow Wow Green, Mutt's New Purple, Fire Hydrant Red, Yuppy Puppy Silver, and Doghouse Blues.
More importantly, the princess seemed delighted by her new nails. Or maybe I was just that more aware of her tiny paws as she pranced around the room. It was surprising how cute the purple looked on her.
The polish stood up to the princess' harshest tests, including skidding along my wood floors in pursuit of a ball, running in crazy circles outside, and taking long walks in the city. And the polish remover and pads worked like a charm when it was time to give up the purple nails.
Pawlish is safe for pets to lick once it is dry - you should keep the products from eyes or mouths while the polish is still wet. The dog polish remover and pads should also be kept out of reach. If you should get a little polish on their fur, I recommend dipping a cotton swab in the remover and dabbing at the area until the polish is removed.
Would I paint her nails every day? Probably not, but for special occasions I'll definitely use the polish again.
Every princess should have a lovely set of nails.
OPI products, including the Pawlish line, are only carried in select stores and salons.

Wilderness Scout Ministries is an organization of Christian men that seek fellow believers who desire a stronger relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We travel to the great outdoors seeking solitude, however brief, from the insanity of today's world. Luke 5:16, "And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed."
It is a time of reflection…and a time to honor our Savior. It's a time to dwell upon the Lord's purpose for our lives, as well as, the encouragement of one another. We are told in Judges 20:22 "And the people the men of Israel encouraged themselves, and set their battle again…" Christian families are in constant battle against evil. This persecution will continue. We fathers, brothers and spiritual warriors must learn how to properly apply the whole armor of God.
Often men, young and old, are searching for direction in their lives; all the while, loosing focus that it is God's direction, not ours, which we should be seeking. God's direction comes to us by learning and by obedience. Take a compass for example. It has a purpose: To put us on the right path…out of harms way. If we learn to use it correctly it will take us to the safe location we seek. However, if it is used improperly or worse yet, not at all, we will remain lost, destined for the precipice that waits.
If you, your sons, or your men's group is seeking a uniquely, divine wilderness experience, Wilderness Scout Ministries is here to show you His way.

(Port Angeles) A formal plea offer may be coming in the case of a bulldozer rampage nearly a year ago.
At a hearing in Clallam County Superior Court this week, Barry Swegle's attorney asked for a delay to wait for a possible formal plea offer from prosecutors in the case. Prosecutors have not indicated whether such a deal is coming.
Swegle was back in court yesterday for a hearing related to his mental competency to stand trial.
Swegle is facing multiple charges related to the incident last May in Gales Addition. Prosecutors say he hopped on a piece of logging equipment and leveled or damaged four homes, smashed a pickup truck and knocked down power lines in an apparent dispute with his neighbor.
Swegle was found incompetent to stand trial last fall and was sent to Western State Hospital for treatment.

By Mike Stewart of Wildrose Kennels - Home of Drake the DU Dog
The development of the polished retriever is largely a factor of time invested in a dog of average or above-average aptitude. Polish arises from an attention to detail. Details promote quality, and quality exceeds expectations. Polish is more than style. It is a dog's functional behaviors, skills and responses that contribute to a satisfactory day in the field.
Polish includes many dimensions, such as smooth delivery to hand, crisp handle, responsiveness, steadiness to shot and fall, tracking cripples, etc. Polished retrievers possess certain basic qualities with regard to obedience:
Drill Patience
Polished retrievers sit quietly for extended periods of inactivity. Frequently drill this for 20-30 minutes in all types of weather and locations. The dog must remain still and quiet. (No noise, disruptive behavior or continuous movement due to boredom.) One can hone this skill while performing tasks around the house, office or farm. Incorporate distraction - kids playing, other dogs, farm animals, etc. Also take advantage of inclement weather - light rain, sleet and snow. That's the way it will be on the shoot!
Polished retrievers sit in an alert, regal manner. A well postured sitting position denotes attentiveness.
Lying down is not a problem for extended periods, but laziness in the blind or at the line indicates sloppy inattention. Correct pups early to avoid the habit of lying down while at sit. Return them to sit promptly by picking up the lead, lifting the pup and re-commanding, "Sit." Also use this technique if the pup drops at your side when you stop. Be consistent and reward proper behavior. Punishment tends to make this matter worse in a pup.
Not sitting squarely on the hips or having a rear leg and/or foot extended is poor form. Reposition the dog repeatedly to the proper sit position. Don't let this become a habit. If the dog continuously extends a foot at sit, remain erect at the dog's side and lightly apply pressure with your foot on his. The dog will retract the foot. As he does, repeat the command, "Sit." Reward all correct responses.

Like football's defensive line, the lowly pump jack gets little acclaim. But it would be a mistake to overlook the device that kept the water flowing on calm days when windmills became little more than yard art. Teamed with a stationary gas engine, the pump jack kept farms and rural homes in business.
Collector Don Hahn, Keota, Iowa, got interested in pump jacks when he saw one with a John Deere gas engine at an auction. "You don't see too many engines with pump jacks at shows," he reasoned. "So I decided I'd collect pump jack engines."
He's since gathered up 60 unique pump jack engines – any one of which would have brightened his day as a youth. "We never had a pump jack until I was in high school," he recalls. Water for livestock was pumped by wind power, and the house had a well – but no gas engine to lighten the load. "It would have been nice if we'd had a milking machine," he admits. "We had about 10 cows."
One of his most unusual pump jacks displays particular ingenuity. Henry J. Kuhlman, Colesburg, Iowa, developed the innovative pump jack for a well 200 feet deep. Patented in 1922, the Kuhlman unit works through a novel succession of gears to deliver tremendous lift at 34 strokes per minute.
"Fairbanks-Morse had a little 1 hp Eclipse pump engine with a great big wheel," Don explains, "and it runs at 800 rpm. For this gear ratio you'd need a wheel much bigger than that." The Kuhlman gets the same result with a smaller wheel, running off a slower engine. "It only needs power to go up," Don says. "It doesn't take any power at all to go down; it'll drop itself."
Another unique piece in Don's collection comes from an Iowa company with a rich heritage: the Waterloo Gasoline Engine Co. The pump jack with walking beam was found nearly buried along a creek. Don dates it to about 1900.
The piece was built by the Waterloo Gasoline Engine Co., successor to the Waterloo Gasoline Traction Engine Co., founded in 1893 by a group of partners including John Froelich, inventor of the Froelich tractor. "Froelich tried to manufacture tractors but he was unsuccessful," Don explains, "so the company decided to make gas engines instead." The company eventually produced the Waterloo Boy tractor, which served as the platform for John Deere tractors following Deere's purchase of the company in 1918.
The Waterloo pump jack is powered by a small Beats 'em All gas engine; the Kuhlman uses a 1-3/4 hp MacLeod. "It's listed as being made in Winnipeg, Canada," Don says, "but it was probably built by Little Jumbo in Michigan. It's a real good engine for the pump jack because its flywheels are an inch or so bigger than normal, and that's why it runs so smooth."

Smoking ban to be tightened further14 February 2013, by Mark McDaid
The Dutch parliament has once more moved to alter the laws on smoking in the horeca sector, with a narrow majority of MPs now behind a total ban.
In 2010 the Minister of Health and VVD member Edith Schippers created an exception for cafés or bars smaller than 70 square meters in size so long as they also did not employ staff.
Such a policy drew angry responses from health critics who claimed that the tobacco lobby was exercising undue influence upon the government, while cynics cited the huge financial contribution made towards the Dutch economy for the relaxation of the ban.
Now the SGP, the fundamentalist Christian party, has thrown it's weight behind the plan for a ban across the entire hospitality industry, giving a slight majority to the proposal.
The leader of the SGP, Kees van der Staaij, quoted in the AD, explains that he had initial doubts over the proposal but decided that "health interests are paramount."
This past Tuesday the proposal, initiated by the Christian Union, secured it's majority. It will now be passed onto the current government for implementation. However, the coalition partners loyalties appear to lie on either side of the issue, with the PvdA behind the current bid and the VVD the architects of the exception permitted in 2010.
The VVD was joined by the SP, PVV and 50Plus in opposition to the proposal, claiming that smaller bars in non-urban areas, usually one-man-businesses with no staff to protect, will now fear for their continued existence.
Anti-smoking groups argue that any exception sends the wrong message to the public and will claim a victory for public health in the wake of this recent vote.

Jaisalmer played on our senses much like the melodious ravanhatta strummed by local wandering minstrels. Even as we drew near the historic town, the surging sandstone walls of its Sonar Kila straddled the horizon. In the town, the dazzling colour of swirling skirts and hot-pink and turmeric-yellow turbans as well as of a multitude of rugs, carpets and chunky silver jewellery on sale suffused our vision.
Around 5,000 people live in this, the oldest inhabited citadel in the world, but the 21st century has stormed the sandstone battlements that rise 30 ft high. The winds of change have wafted into this four-gate fort like the warm gritty sand from the Thar desert that surrounds it and seems to permeate its thick walls.

My DD did some shopping for me, and bought tuna (I had on the list)- a 4 pack, wrapped up together in plasic. Probably on sale. It says EMPIRE brand. I noticed it says "contains Tuna" (LOL) and "product of Thailand".
Something about this, I automatically don't like or trust. Does it have the same standards the USA migh have in the canning and processing of it?
I usually stick to the name brands, like BumbleBee, Chicken of the Sea. Now I'm wondering what that comes from, and I don't have any cans to look.
just checked my cans.....Bumble Bee and it comes from San Diego, Ca....from their canning plant...
did you daughter go to a 99cents type store???? they sell alot of foods from other countries.....and I don't know about the rules and regs in those countries for canning foods....
It's not how you start, it's how you end....so end strong!!
Walk yourself strong!!
This reminds me when Jessica Simpson thought that Chicken Of The Sea came from chickens.. This came out about 3 or 4 yrs. ago. I thought that was funny and sad..
She went to one of the local Supermarkets (local, not a big chain) but they have various generic brands including their store brand (on a lesser known one BEST or something)
For some reason I don't like the idea of tuna from Thailand. Though I wonder if some might come from Japan? Maybe I'm thinking of sardines, I haven't had since I was a kid.
Maybe all the fuss about things from China and contaiminated pet food, etc I now notice things I might not otherwise.
I'd much rather get something from CA (or Canada, if it might mean that, too)
When my husband was little, his mom was the secretary to the head of the tuna packing plant in San Diego. To this day, tuna is the only fish he really likes.
I was going to buy an elephant,but I couldn't figure out any way to get it home in my car. I just don't have the trunk space.
I thought that was funny, too with Jessica Simpson and the tuna. I wonder if she was playing dumb to be funny?
Even if she wasn't, she's young (and maybe never did much of her own shopping and cooking) and comes from Texas. Do they have all the brands everywhere? Maybe her family had always bought another brand.
She did/does play up the dumb act, with the Pizza Hut buffalo wings and then around Christmas the MACY's commercials with all the stars and their products.
What I can't buy is in her bio (I've seen on TV shows) it says how she started out as a gospel singer but nobody took her seriously, because of her "looks" (and the size of her bust). But, when it showed her, she'd have on tight sweaters and revealing clothes!
There's also those TV gospel shows, with the lady with the piled up blonde hair and all the makeup.
I think you might be right to be concerned about tuna from Thailand. I think that it is tuna and other fish from overseas locations that have more mercury and heavy metals in them??? I think the restrictions are as stringent as the US?? I could be wrong, but I think that is the case....
We use the Starkist chunk light tuna in the foil packet, you dont have to drain it. It says its from Pittsburgh, PA. I dont think I would eat tuna from Thailand either.
Your Tuna from Pittsburg is mnost luiely from a foreign country and just the distributor is in Pittsburg.
We have the same problem here in ND with store brands. It says on theccan: distributed by Nash Food Co in Minneapolis but you can bet your sweet bippy it wasn't grown or canbned in Minnesota.
The tuna from Tailand is a somewhat inferior species of tuna called "Tongal" tuna (or something very close to that word). I think that is the only tuna you can get where some of it is canned without salt, m many healthfood stores carry it or can order it for you. I tried it once and it is no worse than the cheapest US tuna that is not in chunks but "crushed" (can't remember the right word). I like the chunk white Albacore but can't afford it and don't buy much tuna because it is so salty.
Most of the canned tuna comes from Thailand, plus a few other places. America only has a very few, very small fishing companies, and you won't find their products in any of the big-box or low-cost stores. ALL of the name-brand tuna (Chicken/Sea, Bumblebee, etc) comes from foreign waters, caught by foreign ships, and processed by foreign processors. Most are both caught and processed on the same ship, far at sea. Then they are delivered to San Diego, CA (or wherever) and the labels applied say "DISTRIBUTED by Xxxxxxx Co. in San Diego.
When you're reading the labels on anything, be sure to differentiate between "GROWN/PRODUCED" in the U.S (or specific state), and "DISTRIBUTED" by a certain company in a certain state. Many well-known American food companies buy food that is grown and/or processed in other countries.
And if you look at the bar code for ID, the first three numbers of that code only indicate what country that code was ASSIGNED TO, not where the food comes from. If Wal-Mart owns a food-production plant in China, but the food is grown and processed in China, then shipped here for distribution, the code will be American, because it was assigned to Wal-Mart, an American company.
Also, food sources change, so if it was grown in California last year, it may be grown in the Philippines this year.
Trainchaser, now that is a name we have not heard(or seen) here before.Welcome to KC, waving at you from the "Hinterland" of s.w.North Dakota
I am just curious why 90% of all newcomers to this board start by bumping posts that are 3-4 yrs old and older?
Although I don't have many posts under my name it is not because I am fairly new but because I have had PC troubles several times and had to come back under a new identity. Have been here for 10-11 yrs and have observed that most newcomers always pick and answer an old post as their first one and just wonder why?
BTW, is Trainchaser a male or female?(again, plain old curiousity)
Grelo, I'm sure a lot of the newbies that are bumping years-old threads are doing it because they did a search on a particular subject, and the one from KC popped up. They probably don't even realize that it's an old one.
This post had me going to my pantry and checking out the can of tuna in there. It is the Walmart brand but does not tell me anything other than it is distributed by Walmart and that the fish is wild caught and may have bones
Not sure what to think about that.
Well, when a mommy and daddy can of tuna love each other very much they get out the can opener and that's where baby cans of tuna come from!
I'm not psycho.....I just like psychotic things.

Why We Need the Legislature to Rein in CPS
The administrators who run Chicago Public Schools, the taxpayers who fund the district and CPS parents have a real mess on their hands. CPS is facing a $500 million budget shortfall for the 2015-16 school year alone. Altogether, the district is over $1 billion in the hole, and the debt CPS is carrying has been labeled "junk" by Fitch Ratings, Moody's and Standard & Poor's.

DENVER - So much show, so little time.
The SIA Snow Show, a giant trade show sponsored by the Snowsports Industries America trade group, is now in its second year in Denver. The show has ride days, sponsored a sold-out winter concert at Red Rocks Amphitheater, and hosts plenty of schmoozing. But the No. 1 job is to bring together makers and buyers of snowsports gear, accessories and clothing for some good, old-fashioned browsing, buying and selling.
Unless you're focused on one part of the business, and know what you're looking for, the show is simply overwhelming. The Colorado Convention Center is a big, big, place, and it's full to the walls with vendors selling any snowsports-related merchandise you can imagine, and some you can't.
Frankly, the sheer volume of new skis, boards, graphic patterns, boot colors and what have you is just too much.
With that in mind, an afternoon of looking around the show ended up focusing on a few new items that will end up in paper and Web catalogs, and, of course, store shelves, in the next few months.
Here's a look at some of the more interesting items:
This is the first SIA Snow Show for Glenn Schmierer and Jamie Marchbank. They're suitably impressed, both by the size of the show and the business they've been able to do.
Marchbank and Schmierer are the co-owners of Function, a Boulder-based company that opened in October of last year. The partners have two products, both of which fall firmly in the realm of "Why hasn't anybody thought of that before?"
Function's products enable snowboarders and skiers to sling their boards over their shoulders. The snowboard Function straps on like a backpack, while the ski carrier slings a pair of skis over one shoulder like a rifle sling.
Marchbank and Schmierer are avid backcountry riders, and both like to travel with little more than what they can get into their pockets. The Function straps do just that. Plus, a base area full of people with Function straps wouldn't be a Three Stooges routine in the making.
"This is the anti-backpack," Marchbank said, holding a Function 1 (the snowboard strap) in a back a bit smaller than a vending-machine bag of chips.
"Next season is really our focus," Marchbank said. "But everyone who's seen it has been really psyched so far."

Anomaly Action Sports
The crew at Anomaly Action Sports took a page from motorsports as the inspiration for the Slytech 2nd Skin Backpro, a simple-looking pad to protect a skier or rider's spinal cord in the event of a fall.
Motocross riders have been wearing chest and back protectors for years, but most are hard plastic, a material that doesn't function very well in frigid temperatures. The Backpro uses soft, energy-absorbing polyurethane that flexes even when it's cold.
Company representative Stephen Boeker dropped a ball bearing on a sample of the material, and the small steel sphere dropped to the pad and stopped dead. The material absorbed all the kinetic energy from the bearing.
Boeker said the company is so enthusiastic about the new material that it's starting to put the stuff in its helmets. Those helmets far surpass the energy-absorption requirements recently imposed by FIS, ski racing's governing body.
"This has really caught on in Europe," Boeker said. "Now we need to get it going in America."

Frameless goggles look cool. And, during a visit to Dragon's booth, a guy named Flynn - who managed to get his one name even on his show badge - focused on the bling of the Dragon APX's bling-y nature.
Then designer Mike Tobia came along. It turns out there's plenty of function behind the flash.
"These goggles have two U.S. patents - one for the frameless technology and one for the bracket system for the lenses," Tobia said.
Framless goggles still have a frame, of course, but it's all behind the interchangeable lenses. The foam around the lens is ventilated, to prevent fogging, but, more important, Tobia said APX goggles improve a skier or boarder's peripheral vision.
"That way you can concentrate on your riding instead of what might be around you," Tobia said.

The Woman's Club building has been transformed into a coffee shop called Gushers, and it could remain that way after the most recent city council meeting.
The film "Tragedy Girls," which has also been referred to by its production name Sadie & McKayla, has been filming in Springfield since the end of July, and when the movie called for a smoothie shop for the main characters to visit, the props department created one in the Woman's Club building.
Washington County High School's chapter of Family, Career and Community Leaders of America is not only one of the biggest chapters in the commonwealth, it's also had some its members recently recognized at the national level.
A former Springfield police officer, along with another man, have been indicted on assault charges.
The Washington County Grand Jury indicted Michael A. Cotton, 59, of Bardstown, and Kevin R. Bewley, 28, of Willisburg, on one count of assault in the second degree, a class C felony.
One thing this year's Washington County Commander football team will not be lacking is experience. With 14 seniors — including many who have played multiple years on the varsity squad — the Commanders will continue to look to their veterans for leadership, according to head coach Eric Sagrecy.
After posting the lowest overall score at the 12th Region All "A" Classic last week, Drew Yates is headed to the state tournament.
The Washington County High School sophomore boys' golfer will be the first male competitor to compete at the All "A" state level since WC's boys' team qualified as a whole in 2011.
Multiple city council and school board seats are up for grabs this year, and voters will go to the polls to decide who will fill them on Nov. 8.
Tuesday, Aug. 9, was the last day for candidates to file for election.
According to Washington County Clerk Glenn Black, three school board seats are up for the taking, as well as all six spots on the Springfield City Council.
Shawn Malloy, along with his wife, Lori, has been working with natural fibers for more than a decade. Now, after opening two successful fiber companies, they've opened up a third – U.S. Natural Fibers, a processing plant in Springfield.
"What U.S. Natural Fibers is all about is, we're buying and selling fiber from small farms across the county," Malloy said.
... And cut!
Hollywood will begin to scale down its presence in the small towns of Springfield and Lebanon as it wraps up production of the movie "Tragedy Girls," a horror-comedy film portraying an adventure of two teenaged girls, later this week.
According to Edward Mokhtarian and Armen Aghaeian, producers of the movie, the production of the film has gone extremely well.
The Washington County Commanders found themselves in a shootout last Friday night, but they were unable to come out with a win, falling short 54-40 against the high-powered offense of the Western Hills Wolverines during the season opener.
Despite a two-possession deficit on the board at the end of the game, it looked as if Western Hills would run away in a blowout early on.
Filming of the movie "Tragedy Girls" in Springfield will be completed this week, ending the month-long production of a Hollywood film in Springfield and Marion County.
Washington County resident Aleeyah Salazar was one of many locals to participate in the film's production.

Fantastic free alternative to the flashier errr... non-Flash alternatives like Xscope. Especially for those of us who aren't full time designers but need an on-screen ruler from time to time.
It also has an especially pretty and intuitive interface for an AIR app, and quite a few extras like skins and device screensize pre-sets that even the more expensive alternatives don't offer.
Speaking of pretty, I know it's cool to hate on Flash: it introduces performance and accessibility issues, etc., but this developer's site design is fantastic.

Mesonephros, permanent kidney of amphibians and most fish, developing posterior to and replacing the pronephros of the embryonic and larval stages. It is a paired organ consisting of a set of nephrons having capsules that filter blood from the glomerulus and tubules whose cells reabsorb water and nutrients and secrete nitrogenous wastes. Glomeruli are absent in some marine fish; urine then forms solely in the tubules, a process that conserves water. The tubules empty into a long tube, the Wolffian duct, a remnant of the pronephros. In more advanced vertebrates the mesonephros develops in the embryo but is replaced after the 10th week in humans by the metanephros.
