Heavy Snow on Golan to Spread to the Negev DesertThursday, February 19th, 2015
A massive system of frigid air will whip most of Israel late Thursday night and Friday morning and bring snow to areas that have not seen the white stuff for 20 years or more.
Arad, Dimona, Upper Haifa, Modi'in, Karnei-Ginot Shomron, Maaleh Gilboa, Nazareth, Kfar Saba and possibly Ben Gurion Airport will probably be covered in white Friday morning.
Snow is falling on the Hermon ski slopes and the northern Golan Heights at this time (early Thursday afternoon), and rain in other areas will turn to snow when temperatures plummet tonight. The airport in Haifa has been closed, and police probably will not allow cars to travel on the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway.
Last December, heavy snow trapped motorists.
Snow will fall through the night, but by Friday afternoon it will turn back to rain in lower areas. Snow will continue falling on communities where the altitude is above 2,000 feet, and later in the day above 3,000 feet, which includes Hebron, Nevei Daniel in Gush Etzion, and Tzfat (Safed).
More than a foot of snow is likely to be dumped on Jerusalem, Gush Etzion, Hebron and the southern Hebron Hills.
Smaller accumulations will fall on Arad and Dimona in the northern Negev, and possibly on Be'er Sheva and Kiryat Gat.
There is a chance that Tel Aviv residents will see snow mixed with rain.
Anyone who does not want to lift a snow shovel, and who is not in a hurry, can wait around for a couple of days. The forecast for Sunday is freezing temperatures in the morning but significant warming in the afternoon.
On Monday and Tuesday, it will be warmer than usual. There is a chance for more rain – but no snow – later next week.
Meanwhile, the Kinneret continues to add an inch or so a day, and the entire country has received the amount of precipitation that usually falls for the entire year.

LeAnn Rimes Cries to Giuliana Rancic About 2009 Affair
LeAnn Rimes still cries when she thinks about the affair she had with her now-husband, Eddie Cibrian, but that doesn't mean she feels remorse. "You can't break what's broken already," Rimes tells E! News of separating Cibrian from his ex-wife, Brandi Glanville, as well as hurting her own ex-husband, Dean Sheremet.
Rimes sat down with E! host Giuliana Rancic for a tear-filled tete-a-tete that aired on Sunday in which she opened up (again) about her 2009 affair.
"I never ever in my heart want to hurt anyone," Rimes tells Rancic. She was quick to absolve herself of blame, however, adding, "I don't think anything can separate anything that's super-connected. You might have had so many wonderful things with each other's spouses in your relationship, but something along the way broke that."
Rimes, it seems, can't bear to let arch-nemesis Brandi Glanville make headlines without her — her interview with E! comes hot on the heels of Glanville's announcement that she will be undergoing breast surgery to remove a non-cancerous tumor. Now that Glanville has decided to stop trashing Rimes on Twitter ( or so she says), the two have to get creative with their headline-grabbing war.

i know this sounds dum but i saved and i dunno how to load my game...
28 Comments - Linear Discussion: Classic Style
Hello. I'm having some problems saving in the aforementioned game with the jumbled acronym. Pressing the button to save in the Save/Load section in game tells me that the game was saved, but none of the corresponding boxes in the appropriate row fill up with the saved game info (which is what I'm guessing would happen if it worked). If I try to load a game, all I see is the save button for the first row.
Here's the appropriate specs:
OS: Vista 32-bit
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400
Motherboard: MSI P6N SLI Platinum
Fatherboard: None
Sisterb- ah never mind...
4 gigs of Ram
Video Card: ATI Radeon X1600 pro (MSI Built)
I'm running on a dual monitor config...
Things I've tried:
- Ran the game as administrator
- Ran the game in Windows XP compatibility mode
- Ran the game in Windows XP compatibility mode and as administrator
I've also noticed that no folders for saved game data were created in the \Users\username\AppData\ directory. Perhaps you have a different spot where you put it...
On XP, the Snappy pics and save game info is in My Documents\Telltale Games\SBCG4AP Episode 1 - Homestar Ruiner (or something similar)
Not sure if it's the same on Vista.
Save/Load stuff worked fine on XP, although I'm kinda disappointed there's only 4 slots and not the "extendable" screens as for Sam and Max (which I think allows you 6x4 = 24 saves)
On Vista, the save location for both Snappy and save games are:
\Users\*username*\Documents\Telltale Games\Episode 1 - Homestar Ruiner\
However, we discovered that saves and preferences are not working as we intended on limited and guests accounts on Vista. Snappy images are saved at the above location as screen shots are handled differently. It's being worked on, but for the time being we're back to the game running only on administrator accounts on Vista.
Currently you can have different accounts have different save games/preferences, but sadly they both have to be administrator accounts. Once we get this fix in, standard and guest accounts will work the same way once the game is installed by an admin account.
Okay. So I have to be logged in as a administrator account, I can't just run the game as Administrator?
Thanks for the quick reply and for letting us know what's happening and that you're working on it.
- Thomas
You will always need to be an Administrator to install the game. This will not change.
The 'bug' we're working on is being able to play the game for any type of an account, after an admin installs the game. Right now you need full admin privileges to play the game on Vista.
Are you using Vista? If yes, are you running a limited user account or an administrator account? If you're running a limited user account, that's the problem. There's a bug that's preventing saves from saving. Switching to an administrator account will fix it.
If you're already using an administrator account, go to My Documents / Telltale Games / Episode 1 - Homestar Ruiner. Do you see any files that end in .save?
I'm having exactly the same problem. I'm running Vista, using an administrator account, but I'm still not able to save. When I click the Save button I get this:
WHen I return to load a game the screen is still just like that, minus the Game Saved message. I've checked My Documents / Telltale Games / Episode 1 - Homestar Ruiner but there are no .sav files, just a prefs.prop file.
Having got a fair way into the game I'm a little annoyed at having to start all over again. Any clues why this is happenning?
Alf Fly: Do you have UAC turned on?
If you can think of anything else that would be different as far as your Windows settings or any other security software, that would be helpful. If we could find a way to reproduce the problem, then we can find a solution.

($80; 15.8% alcohol; from four-year-old vines) Hazy appearance. Aromas of dried citrus peel, linden tea and hazelnut, with more vibrant notes of lemon zest and ginger emerging with aeration. Dense, strong and aromatic, with penetrating acidity buffered on the back end by a saline impression of extract. The youthful tartness and phenolic impression of this wine actually reminded me of a young Corton-Charlemagne, but this wine will require patience.

TKDA and RDG teamed together to design the new Department of Intercollegiate Athletics Men's and Women's Basketball Practice Facility on the University's Minneapolis campus. The facility will house one to two one-and-a-half court gyms, a strength/conditioning room, and a video- taping/editing room that will serve the practice needs of both teams. The building will enhance the distinct appearance of the Athletics District. The striking design of the building includes a glass enclosed "Basketball Hall of Fame" on the building's northwest corner. The second-story area showcases the success of the basketball programs to all who pass by the facility on this busy campus thoroughfare.

Der arme Spielmann [The Poor Fiddler, 1848] was Franz Grillparzer's literary contribution to the revolutionary year of 1848, although in a letter to Johann Count Mailáth (1786-1855) he denied that his Rahmennovelle (novella with a narrative frame) had any political significance. The novella was published in Pest in Deutscher Almanach Iris (German Almanac Iris) by the liberal Hungarian patriot Gustav Heckenast (1811-1878), and edited by the historian and Hungarian patriot Johann Count Mailáth. The latter, one of the tutors of the rebellious Austrian Empress Elisabeth ("Sisi", 1837-1898), promoted Austrian …

5 Reasons Money Can Buy Happiness
#2. "The Best Hobbies Don't Cost a Thing!"
In that inspirational email forward about the investment banker and the Mexican fisherman, they made sure to portray the fisherman as playing the guitar in his spare time. In Titanic, when Rose leaves the stuffy rich people (quietly sipping their brandy and smoking their cigars) she goes below deck to find the poor passengers rocking out with their crude instruments:
Via Titanicmovie.com
Likewise, Phoebe in Friends was the poorest of the group (and was homeless in the past) but that's OK, because she had her guitar to keep her sane. The message is the same every time, of course: It doesn't matter how poor you are, nothing is stopping you from singing a song or writing a poem or sculpting some meaningful shit out of clay.
But I've Been Poor, and ...
First of all, there's the time issue. I write for a living now, obviously, but when I was trying to do it as a hobby? Yeah, ask me how much I felt like writing after 12 hours of work/commute and then all the other time spent doing home shit after that (eat, shower, tend to the kids, etc). Unless you wanted an article on "6 Ways I'd Like to Fucking Punch All the Truck Drivers in the Cock," all you'd get out of me is some low moans about my aching back while I stared sleepily at some Internet boobs. Creativity takes energy. Energy that a waitress or roofer or warehouse worker isn't going to have at the end of the day.
"Man, I can't wait to get home and do more shit."
And that's assuming that your hobby is the sort that doesn't require supplies. My fiancee loves to paint, but when we were living in that funk, paint and canvas were luxuries that we could only justify as a birthday gift. Most people don't make their own paint by extracting pigment from berries and squids, and a nice set of oil paint will run you several hundred dollars.
But Add in Some Money ...
I've written more in the last six months than in the entire 36 previous years of my life. Why? Because I got a fucking paycheck for doing it. Not because creativity requires money, but because time costs money -- the paycheck allowed me to drop the non-writing work so I would actually have time and energy to put into the writing.
"What are 182 other words for 'cock'?"
And even though you think of writing as one of those free hobbies, it's sure as fuck not if you want people to actually read it. That requires an Internet connection and Web hosting, both of which were at the bottom of the priority list when it came time to decide what utility we were going to get turned off this month. You can talk about how money is a bad motivation for creativity and how commercialism ruins art, but all I know is now I don't have to choose between expressing myself and what flavor of Ramen Noodles I'll be serving for every meal this week.
#1. "Money Can't Buy Love!"
In Titanic, the hero was poor, the villain was rich and whenever there are two dudes competing for a woman, we're supposed to be rooting for the poor guy (also see: Dirty Dancing, Some Kind of Wonderful, Pretty in Pink and a shitload of others). The message is always the same: When it comes to love, money doesn't matter. Right, Bon Jovi?
But I've Been Poor, and ...
Let's start with the obvious: The less you're able to take care of yourself, the harder it is to find someone who will accept you into their lives, romantically. I'm not talking about gold diggers or materialistic assholes here, either -- I'm talking about the common sense that scares us away from somebody in a constant state of financial insecurity. Being poor obviously doesn't take you out of the running, but it does make it harder, as you're removing a part of that equation and relying on the rest of you to reel them in. Looks, personality, charisma, etc. Let's face it, you can't pay for dinner with a sweet crotch bulge.
But then you just have the practical matter that if your lover doesn't live in the same town as you, it fucking costs money to get close enough to them to touch their boobs. This comes up all the time now in the Internet age -- like millions of couples, my fiance and I met online and I found out she lived a few states away.
And also, she is a polar bear.
Shit, there was a time in my life when I couldn't even have afforded the webcam or Internet connection to do video chat with her. Bus and train rides are a couple hundred bucks over that distance, on top of sucking days out of your work schedule, and don't even mention flying -- when you're poor, you might as well be suggesting I just buy a helicopter.
But Add in Some Money ...
... and you can simply pay a whore.
Or, in my case, when my fiancee and I decided to live together, it meant her coming to a state where I was the only person she knew. That meant she had no job, which in turn meant I had to support both of us until she got one. That quite simply wouldn't have been possible before we started climbing out of the poverty dungeon.
Careful. Before we left, we shit all over the place.
No, money can't buy you the actual state of being in love. But a lack of money can most certainly fucking prevent it. It can keep you physically separated, and the unfortunate truth is that the overwhelming majority of long distance relationships don't last terribly long, for obvious reasons. So forget the romantic movies, forget the love songs about how no obstacle can stand between us. Bringing us to the same physical location required a shitload of cash.
I understand why those songs and movie plots exist. They're written by people with money to remind other people with money that money can't solve 100 percent of their problems. But they have nothing to say to people like us. Because even if you're a deep, thoughtful soul who appreciates all of the simple pleasures in life, money still fucking matters.

I've wanted a cat, and my parents were never cat lovers. My wife grew up with a cat. We visited our local shelter, and I wanted a kitten but they didn't have any that were ready for adoption. As we toured the facility we came across a hallway and some cages and we saw this tiny timed cat, that came out to the front of the cage as I walked by. Her name was Amelia and we wanted to take her into the play room. We went into the play room, and the rest is history. She picked us, and there was no looking back. I found my daughter. She was almost 5 months old when we adopted her. We had her spayed, and microchipped as well. She is also a mix she's 90% Maine Coon, and 10% Domestic Shorthair, and she's the best thing to happen to us. I can't even express the love I have for her and the love she gives to us...

As a skin conscious individual, I used to be very curious about hyaluronic acid serum and the things I has in store. Most people claim that this is proven effective in improving your skin's condition. To satisfy my curiosity, I conducted research about this stuff.
At first, I was not aware of how this product works. Though I heard various things about this skin solution, I just shrugged them off. Like other people, I don't easily believe in hearsay. Before I use any product, I make sure that it does not have any harmful side effects.
If you want to know several things about this product, you should also do the same thing. I conduct research to ensure that my skin will be in good hands.
In my research, I learned that hyaluronic acid for skin is different as compared to other skin solutions. This is the reason why I got tempted to use this product. To give you enough hints about this product, let me share you the things I discovered.
Hyaluronic Acid Serum
To get enough details about hyaluronic acid, I decided to seek help from experts. I also read several reviews online. According to my sources, hyaluronic acid is the usual ingredient found in any skin care items.
It is commonly used as moisturizer because it can hold more than 3,000 times its weight in water. This helps the product deliver powerful hydration to the skin in an instant.
This hyaluronic acid serum comes into two types: the water-based and lipid-based type. The former is designed for normal and a combination of skin types while the latter is intended for dry or mature skin types.
As stated by specialists, these two types offer intense moisture to the skin. Users who use these products are expected to achieve a perfect skin condition.
After knowing these facts, I started thinking if they are applicable to my skin or not. So, what I did is that I asked my dermatologists about this product. While talking to my doctor, I started asking a few questions about the product.
Then, I realized that this product has multiple benefits. These hyaluronic acid benefits can never be found in ordinary skin solutions.
The Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid
Since I am so conscious of my skin condition, I always consult my dermatologist. According to her, I need to consume at least nine servings of fresh fruits and vegetables every day as these will help me have a balanced intake of vitamins, phytonutrients and minerals.
She said that these elements are perfect in fighting skin aging and solving skin issues. However, I often neglect to do incorporate them in my daily meals because I am quite busy at work. So, I decided to ask her what the best alternative to fruits and veggies is to solve my skin problem.
My dermatologist said that one way to solve my skin problem is to use products that contain hyaluronic acid. She added that the hyaluronic acid serum is proven effective to remove all signs of aging and other conditions.
Like me, if you are quite curious on what the different benefits of this hyaluronic acid cream are, you are free to ask your dermatologist. For your guide, here are the things I discovered about its ultimate benefits:
- Perfect for All Skin Types – Since my skin is quite sensitive, I always ask my dermatologist if my preferred product is compatible with my skin. She said that I don't have to worry about my skin condition. Hyaluronic acid is ideal for all types of skin. Therefore, it doesn't have any harmful side effects.
- Fights Skin Aging – Another reason why I really love this product is because it helps in maintaining my skin young-looking. In the past, I used to buy different skin solutions to make my skin even more stunning. After discovering and using this product, my skin has become fresher, smoother and healthier.
- Affordable – Since I want the best for my skin, I thought that buying expensive products can solve my problem. Luckily, I heard about this product. With this, I no longer need to spend more money to maintain my fresh look.
- Reduce Irritation – Believe it or not, hyaluronic acid serum is perfect in reducing skin irritation. This is often used, especially after laser hair removal. Others also use this anti-aging serum to nourish their hair and give it a soft texture and stunning luster.
Its Application and Functions
After knowing how the product works, I started searching for the best shop that offers similar products. However, that is not my major concern. Like me, you are probably wondering on how to use hyaluronic acid or peptide cream.
Before I buy this item, I asked my dermatologist about its application. According to her, this product should be applied both in the morning and evening after taking a bath. All you have to do is take a small amount and spread the serum all over your skin. In doing this, you need to be careful to avoid attaching the serum to your eye area.
This serum can be used as a moisturizer, sunscreen product or make-up base, making it one of the best versatile products for women. Whatever items you pick, make sure that you read its label very carefully.
This can help you know more on how the product works and how to use it. After identifying its exact application, I started reading its reviews online. Through this, I had enough knowledge on where to get the vitamin c serum.
Like me, you can also transform your skin right away! All you have to do is follow the right application of this product. With this product, you no longer have to worry about your aging problem.
You can also save more money and get the best skin condition you have always dreamed to have. So, what are you waiting for? Get hyaluronic acid serum now and see how it can make your skin even better!

FAU Hosts 2012 State of the University Address
BOCA RATON, FL (September 6, 2012) – Florida Atlantic University President Mary Jane Saunders delivered the 2012 State of the University address, themed "FAU 2012: Celebrating a Year of Firsts, Building Community," on Thursday, September 6, in the Lifelong Learning Center Auditorium, Boca Raton Campus.
Emphasizing the University's initiative to enter into mutually beneficial relationships with local businesses, Saunders said, "In the year ahead, we will continue to introduce the FAU of the 21st century to many of the business leaders in our area to help them understand how much the University can contribute to their success. We want our research and innovation to align with and inspire business growth and development."
Addressing the 15 percent tuition increase that came in the wake of FAU's loss of $24.7 million in state funding, she said, "Our pledge to our students is that we will work with the Trustees, the Governor, the Legislature and the Board of Governors to try to restore state funding to a level that will eliminate the need for ongoing tuition increases."
In her address, Saunders recalled FAU's historic year of welcoming the largest student body in its history, including the University's first class of medical students, and the completion of the 30,000-seat FAU Stadium. She also talked about the University's exciting future, including its growth as a leading center of education, research, creative activities and community engagement.

A Woman's Guide to Sleep Disordersby Meir H. Kryger
More than 20 million women can't sleep at night or have trouble staying awake and alert during the day. Unfortunately, most of these women don't realize they have a sleep disorder. Although sleep disorders affect both men and women, sleep disorders among women are more prone to misdiagnosis and mistreatment.Women experience different symptoms of sleep disorders than men and the onset of a sleep disorder occurs for different reasons than do men's. Hormones, hormone replacement, different ages and stages of a women's life including pregnancy, new motherhood, perimenopause, menopause, menstrual cycles and the sleep disorders of children and sleep partners make a book like A Woman's Guide to Sleep Disorders necessary for women and their doctors.* Women take twice as many drugs as men, many of which cause sleep disorders* Women are more likely to experience RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome) and other sleep movement disorders than men* Because of menstrual cycles, more women are iron deficient, which causes sleep disorders * Women are diagnosed and treated for depression more often than men are and some of the anti-depressants prescribed to these women cause sleep disorders as does the inability to sleep because of depression* Research has shown that insomnia is more common in women than in men (64% vs. 50%)Dr. Kryger's book goes beyond the issue of sleep deprivation in women that is covered in other sleep books. It is designed to be a health book about what women (and their doctors) should know about recognizing whether their sleep problem is an actual disorder, what causes it, and how to medically treat the disorder.A special section on the role that hormones and hormone replacement therapy play in sleep disorders is included.

The good thing about this game is that it's now at all important for the Seahawks to win. Yes, we'd like to win, and yes, I think there is a chance we can win. But really, this is one of the games we entered the season expecting to lose, even in the cheeriest of scenarios. So, assume we lose it. No big deal, we're still 5-5 and at least tied atop the NFC West with the Rams if they can pull off a major upset over the Falcons today.
But, if we win, it sort of makes up for that awful loss to the Giants. It would really help this team mentally to take out a top-flight NFC team. We've got three chances this year — NYG at home, at New Orleans, and in Seattle to face Atlanta. Taking one of those games can say a lot about this team, taking both of the last two probably sets this team up for a 10-6 or 11-5 record and a legitimate chance at respect. Neat. So, what's the recipe for success today?
- Stay Healthy, Russ. If Okung can get through this game, there's a good chance the Seahawks can a) protect the QB well, and b) run the ball with success. Nothing has had a bigger impact on the yards-per-carry of our running backs this season than Russell Okung — not the addition of Beast Mode or the removal of Julius Jones. Not Chester Pitts or Stacy Andrews or any other lineman. It's been Russ. He makes it through the rest of the season, and we might really have a legitimate offense.
- Stay Smart, Matt. If we get the Hasselbeck of his last two starts, we are going to be okay. Yes, the Seahawks ended up getting destroyed by the Raiders, but that was much more on the WRs than the QB. He has been hitting receivers downfield better than anytime I can remember in his career. He's also been keeping the ball away from the defense. We do that and we might be wearing a mighty smile this time tomorrow.
- Stay Nasty, Brandon. Mebane came back last week and had his typical huge impact. He's the best defensive player we have and arguably one of the best in the NFC. We need him to a force against the run and help collapse the pocket in on Brees to help Clemons and the Crew put some pressure on him. Mebane is crucial and if he can have a big game, we can have a solid defensive effort.
- Stay Beastly, Mike. I love Mike Williams. He needs another big game today, and if he puts one together, a) we have a good chance at winning, and b) he has a better chance of earning Pro Bowl honors. Who deserves it ahead of him in the NFC other than Roddy White?

As I approach the fifth anniversary of my retirement from the Taylorsville Police Department, my blood has started to boil somewhat over the article on March 17, 2010, concerning Hazardous Duty Retirement.
The suggestion Mr. Drury made concerning a portion of the employees' funds be "invested in Kentucky Deferred Compensation and purchase insurance polices that could perform as good or better than hazardous-duty retirement" is absolutely ludicrous.
U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell made the following remarks on the Senate floor Monday regarding the reconciliation process on the Democrats' health spending bill:
Last night marked a turning point in our politics and our nation.
On a Sunday night in March, with the nation howling in opposition, a bare majority of Democrats in the people's house ignored the people to claim a win for their party.
And then they celebrated. The American people watched all this in utter disbelief.
Few of us can say that we don't know a family that is experiencing hard times due to job loss. Fortunately, we have many resources here in Spencer County to help those in need. The Chamber of Commerce has reached out to organizations in an effort to assist the unemployed in their job search. We call this united effort "JOBS" – Joint Opportunity for Building Success. On Friday there will be a FREE Jobs Readiness Fair & Seminar Expo from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Spencer Christian Church, 5720 Taylorsville Road. This is open to anyone searching for a job!
This week in Frankfort, the Senate passed bills that strengthen our educational system and cut down on unneeded government waste. We also received the state budget from the House of Representatives and began work on our version of the budget.
I would like to take a moment to thank Judge Jenkins and his kind and caring office staff, as well as the road department for promptly placing speed limit signs in the Whitfield Meadows subdivision due to our overwhelming speeding issues.
I would also like to thank the Spencer County Sheriff's Department for taking the initiative to patrol our subdivision more often to keep our children safe.
Thank you again. You are very much appreciated!
Denny Massie
Thanks goes to Bill Drury, Collis Rogers and the Spencer County Road Department for all the help with the snow removal this past season. You guys really did a superb job.

The VFW Post 11426 and Ladies Auxiliary will be hosting a spaghetti supper and "Meet the Candidates" event April 10 from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. at the VFW Post at 106 Washington St.
The public is invited to come and speak with the candidates and have a great spaghetti supper for only $6.
There will be no open forum for individual candidates. Each candidate that attends will be available for the public to speak to them on a one-on-one basis.
I believe that kudos should be given when deserved and over the past several weeks I have noticed a lot of folks doing things the right way.
By "the right way" I mean focusing on making life better for others instead of only looking out for numero uno. The task is often more difficult than it may seem – especially in a culture that encourages, and often celebrates, egocentric behavior.

According to legend Ned Buntline, an early (1870's) writer of Western fiction, presented a number of Dodge City lawmen with special Colt revolvers with extra-long barrels and detachable shoulder stocks. One of these lawman was Wyatt Earp. Earp's biographer, Stuart Lake named them "Buntline Special's." If there ever were such guns is a subject of hot debate. However during the 1950's resurrection of Westerns on TV, a program called "The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp" (or some-such) recreated some interest in the "Buntline's" and Colt put out some full-sized .45's as well as smaller .22's to cash in on the market.
As a practical matter, as a shooter, these guns are accurate, but harder too hold without disturbing one's aim. If you can do it they will probably be a tack driver. If you can't then so far as hand-held accuracy is concerned they aren't any better then the same revolver with a shorter barrel. They do have some modest collector's value which will probably increase over time.

On the plus side, that's ONE way to get 22LR to perform well out of a handgun! Drive the suckers out of a 12" tube :D. Many of the Colt rimfire SAs had a second cylinder in 22Mag and whoa, the better ones'll haul butt out of 12".
July 23, 2003, 07:23 PM
I started handgun shooting with a buntline scout in 1959 or 60. Very easy to shoot and I killed a boxcar full of small game with it. Won a few local turkey shoots too. I never had a speck of trouble with it but having read that the trigger/bolt springs were prone to break ( a friends did), I changed this part out pretty frequently. There is no telling how many bricks of .22s went through this gun.
As to the legend. They are unable to find any records of Ned Buntline's revolvers but one reference says that Bill Tilgman cut his off to ejector rod lenght as soon as buntline gave it to him. It's a shame that Tilman left no records about it as you would be able to trust anything he said on the matter.

Something about the buntline appealed to Charles Manson. He owned one and it was used by Tex Watson at the Sharon Tate murders. After Watson ran out of bullets, he used it as a club.

I could see using it as a light weight club......barrel is so long after all.
It does seem pretty accurate. I took it to the range a few days ago, shot it last, after my P225 and Colt .38 Super so it sounded VERY quiet and basically no recoil. PITA to load though since the cylinder doesn't appear to swing out. (unless I'm not doing it right)

It's a single-action revolver, so yes, reloading is slow :).
You open the loading gate at the right rear area of the frame, and use the ejector rod under the barrel to press empties out one by one. Lesse, it's a Colt, so I'm assuming the loading gate won't open unless you half-cock the hammer. But I'm not 100% sure about the 22 Colts.
The other option is to pull the cylinder completely out, push the empties out with a straightened paperclip or something if they don't drop free, reload it, and put it back in loaded.
While this reloading drill is a pain, the upside is that the cylinder is locked tight into the frame with no crane, so accuracy can be theoretically higher. The most accurate revolvers in the world are single action. Freedom Arms has a new mid-frame 22 SA (model 97 frame) that has been repeatedly tested by independent evaluators of multiple guns as being capable of MOA. Sub-1" groups at 100 *yards*. No DA can match that.
Your Colt Buntline 22 may come close, with very good ammo that the gun likes.
WHOA, another thing: that sucker ain't got a safety!!! OK, listen closely: if you load it six-up and carry it that way, any impact to the hammer will set it off. It's exactly like an 1873-model Colt SAA in that regard.
So what you do is, you load five rounds, and make sure the *empty* cylinder is the one under the hammer during carry. When you cock it, a live round will roll into battery.
There's a drill to do this, but I've only read about it so I hope somebody else will chime in. IF the drill is the same as an SAA, and it probably is, you half-cock it, open the loading gate, completely unload the empties. Then, starting with an empty cylinder, the drill is "load one, skip one, load four". If I have that right, that will put an empty under the hammer (which you then lower from half-cock).
Can anybody who wrangles old-school SAs confirm that for me? And can we confirm that the Colt 22s had the same operations drill as an SAA?
Because if this guy is surprised at how they reload, he didn't understand about the safety issues until just now. I *know* for a fact that thing has no safety, I'm just not sure the drill to put it in a safe five-up-carry, empty-under-hammer state.
RepublicanMan: you should know that Ruger SAs produced since 1972 have a transfer-bar safety so they CAN be carried safely six-up. EAA single actions do too. Freedom Arms uses a transfer bar on the 97s, and a "semi-safety" on the 83s. But the Colts (other than the crappy "Cowboy" model) and most of the various Italian SAs (Colt/Remington copies, etc.) are "safe to carry with five only" like your critter.
The point here is that guns that look like yours don't always operate internally like yours. It's rather critical that you know how this all works if you're going to shoot an SA revolver.
The *advantage* in having a "no safety" gun like yours is that the trigger pull is usually better...the trigger doesn't have to operate a safety mechanism. The guns ARE safe so long as you understand them, pay very careful attention to muzzle direction during loading/unloading, and do the five-shot-carry drill religiously. The only safety on that gun is between your ears and it's quite adequate SO LONG AS you understand that critter.

Thanks Jim,
the only time this thing will see ammo however is on the range, definitely not something I would ever consider carrying. Even then, it will only be loaded immediately prior to firing and then only if I'm firing from a bench. To be quite honest I don't much care for the pistol but it was left to my wife by her father when he passed away so it's definitely a keeper. We just wanted more info on it.

The Dark Side of Tort Reform: Searching for Racial Justice
Frank McClellan
Temple University - James E. Beasley School of Law
Rutgers Law Review, Vol. 48, pp. 761-798, 1996
While few who have urged tort reform have recognized racism as one of the principal barriers to social justice, this article claims it is essential to discuss race discrimination in order to have true tort reform and to address the problems inherent in the tort doctrine. The article emphasizes the race issue impacts every aspect of a tort claim and adversely affects lawyers, clients, and the public view on justice. Pretending race has nothing to do with tort law or utilizing a colorblind approach only reinforces inequality within the system. Stories of people of color, in addition to what empirical studies of judgments and verdicts are available, shed some light on the serious problems within the tort system with regards to racial justice albeit only scratching the surface. The article concludes by suggesting some tort reform measures that could ease the pain of participants in the tort system.

4. Change the PostWhen the scratching post begins to wear, don't just throw it out and set a new one in its place; a torn-up post is a neon sign in cat language.
"When it looks ugly because it is all shredded, that is what the cat wants," Dodman said. When you get ready to replace a post, set the new one next to the old one until both are being used.
"All species have fundamental behavioral needs, and claw-marking in cats is one of these," Shepherdson said. "If you do not provide an animal with the opportunity to engage in its fundamental behavioral needs, then this would be a strong argument that the animal is suffering as a consequence."
Sitting on your couch or purring on your lap is a creature whose behavior is still firmly rooted in the wild. Instead of fighting your cat's wild heritage, revel in its desire to express it. Learn to appreciate that this creature loves you and trusts you enough to live with you. You can show your gratitude and affection by recognizing and understanding your cat's need to be a cat. A cat might easily say, "I claw, therefore I am."

Thank you. I have been using a spray bottle and now she is afraid of me. I feel terrible. I bought her two things to scratch, but she doesn't like them. One is unstable, the other is not vertical which is what she prefers. I will try again with a log.

but don't worry, I'll get my chance later today. Just cat poop but, still, I'll get my chance. That being said…
At risk of sounding like an ass (a risk I seem to take rather frequently, so it seems), I would rather be scooping elephant shit than be a mom today. Yesterday, too. I am not enjoying it these past few days, I am just wishing I was anywhere but here.
It is hard to admit that, especially to the THOUSANDS (insert laughter here) of readers that are viewing this post. It is, however, the truth. There are days like that. I have no doubt that every parent has had days they questioned their decision to have children and pondered the thought of selling them to the gypsies. Too bad gypsies are hard to find these days.
I just want to put this out there for any parent, new or experienced, that harbors these thoughts. They are ok. It DOES NOT mean you don't love your child. I know this to be FACT, as I still love my child and would throw myself in front of a bus to protect her even as I type the words.
I think I need a break.

State police have identified one of two people killed in a pair of accidents this morning on the New Jersey Turnpike.
Chandrapith Vatsyayana, 51, of Holland, Pa., was killed in the latter crash, a state police spokesman said. That crash occurred a little before 9 a.m. in Mount Laurel.
A tractor trailer driven by 49-year-old Michael Richardson of Trenton ran into the back of the car driven by Vatsyayana, who had slowed down due to delays caused by the previous accident, police said.
The first had occurred nearly two hours before that, when another tractor trailer hit and killed a pedestrian, police said. They had not yet identified that victim as of about 3:30 p.m.

My speaking before this society in some sort of answer to Dr. Brennemann's paper on "The Menace of Psychiatry"1 was decided on with full realization that about all that I could say was "Amen." Also, there is in the audience the chairman of a committee on the relationship of psychiatry and psychology to the practice of pediatrics.2 Moreover my title "The Promise of Psychiatry," was taken much more with an eye to some literary setting off of Dr Brennemann's article than with the slightest notion that there is any such promise—or, if there is one, that psychiatry can meet its note before being engulfed in bankruptcy.
While I can attest that these manifold misgivings were communicated to your secretary, they admittedly were not displayed until after the acceptance of your courteous invitation had been irrevocably nailed down. If what I have to say is but half the masterpiece

Trina Solar (NYSE: TSL ) is one of the leaders in the Chinese solar industry, but now it looks like it's following the downward path of Suntech Power and LDK Solar, who have both defaulted on loans. Trina updated first-quarter guidance yesterday and said it shipped between 390 MW and 400 MW versus a previous guidance of 420 MW and 430 MW, another sign that Chinese solar is slowly going out of favor.
If Chinese manufacturers experience lower shipments it will translate to lower margins, which is their core financial problem right now. Trina Solar expects gross margin to be between 1% and 3%, which is about in line with expectations for low-single digits. But this level of gross margin isn't enough to make a profit or pay for billions of dollars in debt. The debt-fueled expansion of Chinese solar is being squeezed financially and more companies will have to fall if this continues.
Shipment and margin trends aren't usually isolated to one Chinese solar manufacturer so it's easy to assume that other companies will see disappointing numbers in the first quarter. The first two to watch are Yingli Green Energy (NYSE: YGE ) and Canadian Solar (NASDAQ: CSIQ ) , who round out the top three Chinese solar module suppliers with Trina. All three have high debt, low margins, and massive losses.
Squeezing China
U.S. regulators put import tariffs on Chinese modules last year in an effort to fight subsidies and product dumping. European officials are considering similar measures and may implement tariffs so onerous that China is priced out of the market. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that tariffs of between 48% and 68% will be announced in June, which would make even cheap Chinese panels uncompetitive in the market. Trina, Yingli, Canadian Solar, and most Chinese competitors count on Europe for a large percentage of their demand, so if they're squeezed it would only exacerbate low shipments and unsustainable margins.
Contrast to U.S. suppliers
Take Trina's numbers and contrast them with recent reports from First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR ) and SunPower (NASDAQ: SPWR ) . Both stocks have jumped in 2013 because they're reporting higher profits than expected as their end markets stabilize. This is a stark contrast to what we're seeing in China.
I've been down on Chinese solar stocks for a long time now and this is only the latest reason why. The U.S. and Europe are trying to squeeze them out, margins remain unsustainably low, and debt levels continue to pile up. Eventually the Chinese government will have to let some of these companies fail and liquidate their assets. That's why I would stay away from all Chinese solar stocks right now.
A solar stock worth another look
Investors and bystanders alike have been shocked by First Solar's precipitous drop over the past two years. The stakes have never been higher for the company: Is it done for good, or ready for a rebound?

At the risk of sounding like every other overweight person I know, I'm admitting to a recently diagnosed thyroid problem.
That may not be the reason I have 30 pounds to lose, but I'll use it as an excuse for now.
What jazzes me is the contest the Durango Herald has been running since January – the Lose to Win Biggest Weight Percentage Loser. Check out the website http://lose2windurango.com
This week's food feature is the "back story" of two contestants, Jennifer McMannis and Bryan McCoy. They were inspirational beyond words, and talking to them really got my attention about how motivation is key to weight loss.
The contestis just beyond its halfway point, so folks who have stuck with January weight loss resolutions are finally seeing big results. Every Saturday in the Herald,you can see their faces and note what percentage they've lost. It's much like the reality show of a similar name, but no gross drama that comes with stepping on the scale, while team members grimace and sigh.
Weights in this contest are not revealed, just the percentage of weight lost.
The advertising insert also carries some great nutrition tips, occasional recipes and a Q&A with a health coach. Contest winners win weekly "prizes" ranging from 6-inch subs to gift certificates for local products and services.
Grand prize winners –the top losers of both genders – will win $1000 after the contest ends on May 7.
Many years ago, I participated in a similar challenge that benefitted Durango Adult Literacy. It involved nagging my friends to make pledges for every pound I would lose by contest's end. I was brutal in my denial of everything that I'd normally enjoy, so of course, I won.
I raised a lot of money for the non-profit. Some of my friends were astonished. The ones who knew me best pledged no more than a dollar a pound. Those unaware of how competitive I can be in a short-term challenge ("poor loser" comes closer to the truth) pledged much more. They were completely pissed off when I collected after the month long challenge ended.
The prize was a mountain bike sized perfectly for my 6-foot-4-inch tall husband. He's never ridden it.
Looking back, I wish I could boast about my starting weight in that weight loss challenge, rather than my present "delivery" weight today.
Delivery weight, for those of you wondering what I had delivered, will not be revealed, but you can just imagine how much a pregnant food-lover actually gains when she delivers two nearly nine-pound boys at full term.
If the Herald does this contest again next year, look out. I'm entering.

Dexter is available for adoption Tuesday through Sunday. He is in our adoption center if you would like to meet him.
If you are interested in adopting him please see our "How to Adopt" section.
We don't want to be biased but Dexter is possibly one of the cutest kittens in the world. With his luxurious thick coat of hair and his charming personality, this boy is too hard to resist. Pick him up and you will fall in love. He loves to be held like a baby in your arms, gives sweet kisses on your nose and purrs non-stop. They say boy kitties are the most affectionate and Dexter must have read the book that says this. He is not only extremely affectionate but will keep you laughing at all of his silly kitten antics. Whether it's jumping in the air over an imaginary toy, chasing a shadow or catching a fuzzy ball, Dexter is having fun. Dexter was adopted out for a brief time and sadly his owner developed an allergy. She said he was playful, loved to play with her kitty and best of all, loved lots of attention by her. He is a lap cat too. Dexter didn't last long on his first stay here and we expect he won' last long this time either. He is delightful in every way!

Details: This is a simple one to claim. If you or your predecessor (deceased parent, relative, etc., who left you the publishing rights) have a published work or are a publisher of such work, and it was scanned in by Google, there's a great chance you can make a claim. The online claim process is very straight forward. Come prepared to provide as much information as possible about your published work including who owns the rights (hopefully you), the ISBN, cover price, Author, Title, Year Published, and whether you own the local (country of origin) or worldwide rights.
They have extended the deadline to submit a claim to March,31st, 2011. Head to http://www.googlebooksettlement.com/ and make your claim online. Once you make your claim you'll be able to check the status at the same website.The Google Book class action lawsuit settlement will likely be modified further so make sure to check back at Top Class Actions, and the Google Book class action lawsuit settlement administrator, websites so you're kept in the loop.
Purchased From: Books published prior to 1/5/2009

TCA Staff Tidbit: So, why are we listing this one here? Simple, this is covering hundreds of thousands of written works. If you published a book and it was registered with the U.S. Copyright office make your claim in the Google Book class action lawsuit settlement. There are thousands of people out there who can be included in this settlement and probably aren't even aware of it. Why? Because you may have a deceased distant relative who published a novel which may allow you to claim a portion of the settlement. Is it a stretch? No, not really, just make sure you truly DO own the rights. Keep in mind, that even if they were a prolific writer who published 100 books, your share of the settlement will be $6,500 (estimate.) You won't get rich, but, this is cash you otherwise wouldn't receive, so why not make your claim? More importantly, once you make your claim, you'll be paid for how often the published work is accessed, so if it's popular you could continue to receive checks. If it's not, all you're out is the five minutes it took to fill out the claim form. Not a bad return right? 5 minutes for at least $60? Most importantly, this lets Google continue to scan works and store them indefinitely. As someone who is a prolific reader I think it's fantastic, and essential, that these are stored electronically for future generations. How interesting would it be if the Egyptians stored all of their written works on a USB thumb drive rather than on papyrus scrolls. Wouldn't it be cool if you could Google the works of the Pharaoh Ramses and a vast amount of his writings weren't lost to the sands? I digress, but, you get my point. If you can, MAKE YOUR CLAIM!

Episcopal bishops have authorized the church to start drafting an official prayer for homosexual couples. Wednesday's decision was another step in the Episcopal Church's recent acceptance of the homosexual community.
The bishops voted 104-30 at the Episcopal General Convention to "collect and develop theological resources and liturgies" for blessing homosexual couples.
Many Episcopal dioceses already allow clergy to bless same-sex couples, but there is no official liturgy for the ceremonies in the denomination's Book of Prayer.
The church also recently voted to end its ban on allowing openly gay bishops.
Episcopal conservatives who have stayed with the denomination through the recent votes predicted the already splintering Anglican fellowship would fracture.
"For many, this is the final straw with members of the wider Anglican Communion," said Bishop William Love of Albany, N.Y. "It's breaking my heart to see the church destroy itself in the manner in which we seem to be doing."
The prayer for same-sex couples will be considered at the next national meeting in 2012.

Home prices continue to head higher, according to the latest S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index October report (link opens as PDF) released today.
After increasing 0.7% in September, the index's 20-city home price composite added on a slight 0.2% for October, beating analyst expectations of a 0.1% contraction for this non-seasonally adjusted number. The chart below shows a five-year range for the 20-city index, with the index up 8.8% over that time frame.
According to the report, home prices increased for 10 cities from September to October, with a 1.2% boost from Las Vegas taking the lead. Chicago prices dropped the most, down 0.5% for the month.
In the past year, Las Vegas prices are also up the most (27.1%), while Cleveland and New York homes added on just 4.9%.
For the 12 months ending in October, the 10- and 20-city home price composites are both up 13.6%.
"Both Composites' annual returns have been in double-digit territory since March 2013 and increasing," noted David Blitzer, chairman of the Index Committee at S&P Dow Jones Indices, in a statement today. "However, monthly numbers show we are living on borrowed time and the boom is fading. The key economic question facing housing is the Fed's future course to scale back quantitative easing and how this will affect mortgage rates." According to Blitzer, most forecasts for 2014 put home price growth in the single digits.

Coat: short haired
Education: I survived a very bad accident when I was just a kitten. My owner died when I was 6 and I spent 2 years in a feline sanctuary. I was considered unadoptable because I am blind and crippled. But I am no different than any other cat. I don't know of anything I can't do. I am very lucky to have been adopted. Maybe you should consider adopting a cat just like me. They will be your friend for life.
My favorite tricks and treats are: Any thing I can think of to get attention from my owner and Greenies oral care treats
Where I hang out: Where ever my owner is at.
My favorite grubs: FOOD and lots of it. I only get Science Diet tho.
My pet peeves: Me not getting all the attention I want.
What I love about my owners: She loves me even tho I was considered unadoptable by everyone else. Also she lets me sleep with her.
My cat hobbies: I love to be held in my owners arms like a baby and I love to follow my new brother, Tai, around.
Pet motto: Every Life Has A Meaning. My baby boy went to Kitty Heaven Feb 1, 2010. Love you Tom Tom

I started volunteering at a feline sanctuary about a year ago. http://www. sundancesanctua- ry.org/ As soon as I showed up for work, Tom introduced himself to me. He knows no strangers. He just kept pestering me until I finally adopted him and took him home with me so that I could play with some of the other cats at the sanctuary. Actually the first day I worked there I knew that he would come home with me one day.
